Persecution of Muslims during the Ottoman contraction
Okay kiddo, so a long time ago in a place called the Ottoman Empire, there were some people who followed a religion called Islam. They were called Muslims.
But then, things started to go bad for them. The Ottoman Empire was weakening and losing power, and some people started to blame the Muslims for that. They said that the Muslims weren't loyal to the Ottoman Empire and that they were causing trouble.
Because of this, the Muslims faced a lot of unfair treatment. They were discriminated against and sometimes even attacked. They had to pay extra taxes, and they had fewer rights than other people.
It was really scary for the Muslims, and many of them had to leave their homes and go to other places to try to escape the persecution.
So, that's why we need to remember to treat all people with kindness and respect, no matter what their religion or background is.
