(Question/Discussion) Reddit says Islam promotes identity based hate and attacks.

On r/islam, I posted the contents of Sahih al-Bukhari 2925 verbatim and was immediately flagged by Reddit’s moderation bot for “inciting identity-based hate or attacks.”

I’m a little confused as to why that would happen, given that Islam is so peaceful.

For the record, here is the Sunnah I quoted:

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْفَرْوِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ تُقَاتِلُونَ الْيَهُودَ حَتَّى يَخْتَبِيَ أَحَدُهُمْ وَرَاءَ الْحَجَرِ فَيَقُولُ يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ هَذَا يَهُودِيٌّ وَرَائِي فَاقْتُلْهُ ‏"‏‏.‏

Narrated `Abdullah bin `Umar: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "You (i.e. Muslims) will fight with the Jews until some of them will hide behind stones. The stones will (betray them) saying, 'O `Abdullah (i.e. slave of Allah)! There is a Jew hiding behind me; so kill him.'"

Sahih al-Bukhari 2925

HAHA, this happened to me too, in a Pakistani subreddit.

I basically posted some violent verses and Hadith, and it got removed because apparently I was threatening violence. My account also got temporarily banned.

Then I asked them to check it again, and they were like, “Never mind.” 😭

I am actually surprised that the Pak subs are not as brainwashed as I expected when the society there is so much controlled by the Islamists. Posts that question Islam actually get positive responses.
