Adaab. I often listen that Islam has an intensely negative perception towards cultural diversity especially towards those religions don't have a particular book, or have a polytheistic culture, or practices idolatry festivals. But is this true? or it tells about peace and tolerance? Which one is true? Personally I have seen in social media that many many Muslims harshly criticise the 'other' cultures, and especially when Muslim people/ people with Arabic names actively engage in peace and communal harmony like attending or helping in the festivals of 'the other culture', some other Muslims start to aggressively hold them back or putting bad comments. My question is, does such intolerance or aggression supported by Islam? Edit: I totally acknowledge *islamophobia* or aggression towards Muslim ethnicity is another burning problem. This question is not for generalising any religion (islam or christian or any others) is more tolerant or less tolerant. My question is whether certain rude or aggressive act of a population of specific individuals are permissible/promoted by islam or not. The question is less about Islam itself but _more about the individual engaging in vandalism or aggression over the 'other' cultures._ This include rude comments in social media or vandalizing sculptures etc. or any kind of aggression given that the 'other' culture did not incited any violence or aggression.
