Shocking incidents: Muslim students are harassing non -believers in Hamburg!

in Hamburg it is boiling at schools. Teachers and parents report alarming developments in which Muslim young people do not put loyal classmates and their families under pressure. How focus reports, especially girls are particularly affected who dress feminine and do without a headscarf. These conditions raise questions: Where are the limits of respectful coexistence, and how do we deal with it?

A concerned father says that his daughter was insulted with her friend as a "pork eater", which refused to take a bite during the break. Another father was forced to put his son to another school due to bullying because he was one of the few non-believing students. A teacher draws attention to the fact that some Muslim young people boycott music lessons because they classify it as "Haram".

political conclusion and critical voices

Islamism expert Ahmad Mansour is not squeamish when it comes to criticizing Hamburg politics. He criticizes that those responsible do not want to take radicalization among students seriously. "There is a growing need to exercise religious practices," the Hamburg Senate also confirms, while CDU Member of the Board Sandro Kappe has discussed the strict strictness in some students in certain districts.

The problem is reinforced by the growing phenomenon of "tictok Islamization". Mansour sees this a central cause of the radicalization of young people, which can be observed not only in Hamburg, but also throughout Germany. This development means that more and more students bow to social pressure and practice religious rituals such as fasting, which increases the pressure on non-fasting students.

radicalization among young people

The radicalization of young people also focuses on federal level. Reports of Islamistically motivated incidents in educational institutions show that the problems are not isolated. The Federal Center for Political Education emphasizes that radicalization can not only be recognized by external characteristics. Striking behavioral changes, such as the cancellation of friendships and sudden religious commitment, should be considered warning signals.

This also has an impact on teaching: teachers should take up social issues in order not to leave the field to extremist groups. Advice centers and programs such as "Live democracy!" offer support offers to counteract radicalization. The “Violence Prevention Network” offers training for teachers so that they can better respond to the needs of their students.

A look at social media

The role of social media, especially Tikkok, offers another indication of radicalization. According to Deutschlandfunk use extremist groups to achieve young people through appealing content. The reporting on the latest developments in the Middle East has led to an increase in these radicalization tendencies.

Some influencers have set themselves the task of spreading the ideology of Islamism through a short, concise video material. Such content often achieves young people who cannot ask the corresponding questions in their direct environment, which increases the risk of ideological influence. The promotion of media literacy is seen as one of the most important measures to combat these problems.

It remains to be seen how Hamburg politics will react to these challenges and which strategies for the prevention of radicalization can be successfully implemented in schools. However, it is clear that a common effort is required to promote respectful and solidarity together and to take the voices of those affected seriously.
