Why Are Anti-Shia Sentiments on the Rise in Pakistan? 🤔
Channel: Atheist Republic
Date: 2020-09-22

Since the beginning of Muharram 2020, there has been a stark increase in hostility towards the Shiite community. Thousands of people recently flooded the streets of Karachi in a massive anti-Shia demonstration which has sparked fears of sectarian violence in Pakistan. After the massive protests, the hashtag #ShiaGenocide began trending on Pakistani social media. Sea of protestors were seen chanting Shias are Kaffir" (disbelievers) and holding banners of Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistan, a terrorist organisation, linked to the killing of Shias over the years. Some commentators attribute the increase in prejudice against Shias to the silence of elite moderate Sunnis of Pakistan.
