British Muslims for Secular Democracy (BMSD)

Summary

We bring together a diverse group of Muslim democrats from a variety of ethnic and social backgrounds. We want to challenge perceptions, ideas and current thinking about British Muslims as a collective and the issues that affect the wider British society.

Description

BMSDemocracy advocates and supports secularism, tolerance, equal and civil rights for all, in both general British and specifically Muslim contexts. Secularism is the separation of state and faith. Britain- with its established church and state funded faith schools- is not yet a secular state.

We promote inclusion and encourage the secular Muslim voice. We stand against all forms of racism and discriminations, radicalisation and terrorisms. We uphold human rights and aim to empower and engage diverse British Muslims so they can fully participate in democratic processes within the nation, local areas, mosques and families. We promote universal principles such as the right to vote, freedom of thought and expression, personal autonomy and dissent.

Our Objectives:

  • Raise awareness within British Muslim communities and the wider public, of secular democracy, helping to contribute to a shared vision of citizenship (the separation of faith and state, so faiths exert no undue influence on policies and there is a shared public space).
  • Encourage religious understanding and harmony, respect for different systems of beliefs, and encourage an understanding and celebration of the variety of Muslim cultures, values and traditions which are present in British society.
