Subhan Allah.

What a discovery! Did you guys ever notice that Muslims and the mutants portrayed in the X-Men have a lot of interesting similarities that I can't believe I haven't noticed before?

First of all, they live among humans and they know they're different. Ring any bells? Humans fear them because they don't understand them, and fear that they can use their powers to hurt people. Most mutants are harmless, but a faction of them (led by Magneto) are out to kill humans by following their own radical ideaologies. The ones led by Prof. Xavier are taught to further enhance their skills while at the same time learning tolerance towards humanity.

The similarities are astounding! Tell me what you guys think...

I noticed that the X-Men stories are becoming much more relevant to Muslims now. In the past the comics were very relevant to homosexuals, Jews and black people. They still are, but it seems a growing number of Muslims are drawing parallels, which is great. The stories are allegories for all minority groups, so everyone feels some sort of resonance.

Mmmmm i dont think that you are right.
By the way i am X Men fan since i was a kid.
First of all most X Men condemn "bad mutants" like Magneto or Apocalypse. And as we know most muslims rather support than condemn Hamas or Hesbullah ( if you want sources check my post "How many muslims actually support terrorism")
Then X Men never pretended that there is nothing wrong with many mutants, while most muslims ( at least on this forum) claim that islamic terrorism was made up by western media.
Third thing, most immportant thing. X Men fought against bad mutants, often sacrificed their life. While so called moderate muslims dont do anything to stop their extremist brothers and sisters.

I don't necessarily look at us as the injured party, nevertheless this to me is the closest fictional representation of Muslims I've seen in any movie.

I know you got ur account disabled man, but I'll reply anyway in case you come back. Hamas and Hezbollah can hardly be called the equivalents to Magneto or Apocalypse. Now you're talking Al-Qaeda, and not many Muslims, if any, support them. Hamas and Hezbollah do tend to be aggressive sometimes, but they can hardly be called "terrorists" as in they want to "kill all kuffar." They're just doing what they feel is right to protect their people from opression.

Secondly, some Muslims are unsure who to side with, just as Wolverine in the first movie didn't care about peace and shared some of Magneto's ideas. With some guidance from Prof. X, he was directed back to the right path.

Then X Men never pretended that there is nothing wrong with many mutants, while most muslims ( at least on this forum) claim that islamic terrorism was made up by western media.
That's because they saw it firsthand and not through the media.

Third thing, most immportant thing. X Men fought against bad mutants, often sacrificed their life. While so called moderate muslims dont do anything to stop their extremist brothers and sisters.
That's because the "humans" in our world are already doing that part and killing a countless number of "good mutants" along the way. Plus, when did the X-Men ever take humans as allies in the war against Magneto?
