On May 5th, the widely followed @muslim account was abruptly banned across India. The restriction came without warning, explanation, or any communication from Meta, leaving millions unable to access the platform’s content.
Today, @muslim founder, Ameer, confirmed that after months of advocacy, the account is once again visible in India. However, no reason for the ban — or its removal — was ever provided, and no appeal process was offered during the restriction period.
The censorship of Muslim voices at a time when global media continues to overlook critical Muslim stories is a dangerous precedent. @Muslim has reaffirmed its commitment to documenting the truth and standing for justice, as commanded by Allah (SWT).
@americasmuslimnetwork stands in solidarity with @muslim and all independent media fighting to ensure our communities are seen, heard, and represented
