Definition

Muslim segregation refers to the practice of separating Muslims from the rest of society, either by physical barriers or social discrimination, based on their religious beliefs. This can manifest in various forms, such as separate neighborhoods, schools, or public spaces for Muslims, or the exclusion of Muslims from certain professions or social activities.

However, it's important to note that Muslim segregation is not a universally accepted or endorsed practice. In many countries, laws and policies are in place to promote inclusivity, nondiscrimination, and integration of all citizens, regardless of their religious affiliation. Such practices, when they do occur, are often criticized as being discriminatory, fostering social division, and violating principles of equality and human rights.
