Muslim is more vulnerable to abuse in Australia than other religious believers, according to a four-year study.
According to the Daily Mail, Anna Hickey-Moody, a researcher at (RMIT University) at Melbourne`s Royal Polytechnic University, said she learned about the violence incident in Australia`s Muslim in the course of her research into the religious community in Australia. She was shocked.
Schicki Moody`s told the Australian broadcaster that she had been in Adelaide for nearly a week at a mosque during which young whites drove around mosque and rolled down the window to pose as a shoot.
The (Interfaith Childhoods Project), called Interfaith Childhood, was conducted in six cities in Australia and the UK in 2016. So far, 340 people have been interviewed in Sydney, Adelaide, Canberra, Melbourne, London and Manchester.
A Muslim mother once told Schicki Moody`s that someone was driving past her "shoot" with a handgun. The mother said she had to raise her daughter according to religious beliefs while worrying that religion would make women vulnerable and that life was complicated.
Another Adelaide interviewee said that one day in town, she and her sister noticed that an old woman using a walker wanted to cross the street, and the sisters went to help and were reviled by the old woman. The old woman first asked them to take their hands away, and then asked them to "go back where they came from."
The researchers found that Adelaide had the worst attitude to Muslim. Schicki-Moody`s view is because Adelaide has a relatively low degree of multiculturalism, less internationalisation, and no "cosmopolitan sense of need to understand social differences".
One Adelaide interviewee could not help crying when he recalled being roared "get out" in front of his face.
Another interviewee said that one day when her son was passing one mosque by bus, two male passengers blatantly said, "Let`s kill them."
