Moderater Muslims?...Yes, you do find them in India.
Reader comment on item:
in response to reader comment: What is a moderate Muslim?
Submitted by M.D'Souza (United States), May 9, 2008 at 17:45
It's because they don't read the Koran! Many of them don't read Arabic.
The Muslims in India are already burdened to learn several languages and their dialects inorder to do business in India. Many of them are friendly. We can very well term them 'moderate', provided they don't come under the influence of the Wahhabi yahoos.
