Parents of Muslim pupils in Germany have complained that their children should not have to take part in any exams due to the stress placed on them by fasting during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.
Authorities need to reign in the demands by Muslims and insist that they assimilate. German schools have been afflicted by Muslim migrants with supremacist attitudes of entitlement — and worse. Only two months ago, Heinz-Peter Meidinger stated that problems at Muslim migrant-majority schools “are spiraling out of control” and that attacks on teachers were increasing, and several schools needed private security. Circulation of Islamic State beheading videos was also an issue, as was children in possession of “knives and ‘gas sprays.’”
In February, Florian Endres from the Nuremberg Advisory Centre on Radicalisation stated that “most of the children have grown up in a Salafist environment — that is to say, their parents are radicalised.” Her words were in response to the rising alarm over “Islamic extremism” in the classroom.
Westerners have their own leaders to blame for accommodating unreasonable demands and succumbing to Muslim intimidation.
“Last year, a Dutch school in the Hague held a class photo day during the Eid al-Adha and two Muslim sisters were unable to take part in the photograph. After complaints were lodged by the mother of the two young girls, the school was forced to pay out 500 euros to each girl after a discrimination lawsuit was filed. The parents had demanded 10,000 euros, initially.”
Hungarian deputy prime minister Zsolt Semjen is correct in warning that “Islam is penetrating Europe without resistance as Christianity and national identity fade away.”
“Muslim Parents Complain Their Children Should Be Exempt from Exams During Ramadan”, by Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart, May 21, 2018:
Parents of Muslim pupils in Germany have complained that their children should not have to take part in any exams due to the stress placed on them by fasting during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.
President of the German Teachers’ Association Heinz-Peter Meidinger has complained that Ramadan fasting has caused several problems with Muslim parents including many being “exhausted” due to fasting, Kronen Zeitung reports.The issues have affected many schools in Berlin because of the high numbers of migrant-background students with Meidinger claiming that parents have specifically requested that their children not be made to take any sort of examination during the Islamic holy month.
“A lot of students take the fast very seriously now,” Meidinger said.
Family Minister Franziska Giffey, of the Social Democrats, said that fasting should not be a focus for children saying: “Children have to drink and eat regularly, otherwise they can no longer follow lessons attentively.”
Giffey added that teachers and others should also make sure classmates were not using peer pressure against Muslim students who were fasting saying: “There should be no discrimination, no matter if someone is fasting or not.”
The demands are not the first time Islamic religious practises has interfered with schooling in a European country. Last year, a Dutch school in the Hague held a class photo day during the Eid al-Adha and two Muslim sisters were unable to take part in the photograph….
mortimer says
“DARURA” allows Muslims to be flexible … no accommodation is needed.
Because “DARURA” (Islam’s “Law of Necessity”) fully permits Muslims to find creative ways to adapt when Sharia Law conflicts with practical life, the argument that societies are obliged to make concessions to privilege all the demands of strict Sharia Law is considerably weakened.
Islam Is a flexible religion: religious obligations allow exceptions, subject to circumstances. Muslim religious scholars balance countervailing obligations to determine when exceptions apply.
Understanding such balancing of necessities in Islam is not only important for public policy, but also for understanding how an identical set of religious beliefs can be used to justify war or peace, terrorism or peaceful coexistence.
Muslim children may FAST SOME OTHER TIME if they must write an exam.
Ren Ostertag says
Wrong – children don’t have to fast at all ! Where is this coming from that kids are now fasting too ?!
In this in our western countries. It is child abuse !
Only healthy adults are “expected” to do the fasting. Children never ever.
Where are “social’ services?!
Ren Ostertag says
Sorry, meant to say “and this in our western countries”, not “in this”.
gravenimage says
True–children are supposed to be exempt from the Ramadan fast. Just more Taqiyya from Mohammedans to spread their creed.
Jayell says
If they chose to live in a non-muslim Western country, these muslim parents should have made it their business to find out how things are done in their new environment and adapt accordingly, or else return to more congenial surroundings. Here in the UK they tried to get school exam boards to change their dates to accommodate them, but since nothing seems to have changed I presume they were given a short answer. If muslims in the West have decided to take their fasting more seriously, what happens in the north of Norway and Sweden, where the sun hardly sets in midsummer? Are they going to virtually starve for a month and make incompetent – even dangerous – nuisances of themselves?
Jim says
Yup..
Savvy Kafir says
Muslims in the West are colonizers, here to transform Western societies into Islamic ones, by one means or another. That’s why they cannot be allowed to stay.
Save Europe says
Totally true ?

Carol the 1st says
They’re quite obviously trying to create the illusion that they’re mainstream.
WPM says
Only a matter of time they will get their own private pray rooms, classes interrupted by students running off to pray room a few times a day all work in the class room come to a halt to appease them .Other students kept from wearing Crucifixes on their necks or Star of David openly on their necks .What happens to adults who fast should they be exempt from work during the month of Ramadan? The fast is a joke they get up before dawn eat as much as they can ,skip lunch then eat as much as they want after the sun goes down .They only miss lunch ,have all the exams in the morning hours ,they will be stuffed from gorging out for breakfast .I had a long commute my whole life because of where I live { a personal choice I made}. I have been eating breakfast before dawn my whole life and survived till lunch time ,if I was too busy skip lunch to survive to dinner time and live to tell the tail! We all make personal choices on following our beliefs we cannot expect others to make choices to accommodated all of them .Many people fast according to religious beliefs beside Moslem on their holy days. Islam the religion that puts on a big show and has to be a pain in the ass to everyone else on all matters of everyday life big and small.
esther says
I was once a student taking exams——whether I had eaten or not had NO EFFECT on
my ability to take an exam. The custom is—-EAT BEFORE SUN UP—-most exams are
MORNING events—–where is the problem? I did have a problem—-the COLLEGE
ENTRANCE EXAM—–took too long——I had to get up and leave based on bladder
issues———-I took the exam again——having remained WATER free for the
preceding 24 hours——–I DID VERY WELL THE SECOND TIME AROUND—-dehydrated
Eur says
In Spain, the Islamic associations demand that the exams be carried out early in the morning and that they are not too long. They refer to the exams of selectivity, where in two or three days the students are examined of everything learned in the last year of access to the university. The exams are usually in the morning as well as in the afternoon, it has always been . Now Muslims demand that there be no exams in the afternoon and that the duration be shorter because Muslim students are weak due to Ramadan. Summing up from now instead of being the school authorities who plan the exams … it will be the Muslim authority.
They also demand that in the slaughterhouses there be a Muslim cleric supervising the slaughter of the cattle to certify that it is done by the halal rite.I thought, how deluded I was, that it was the health authorities, the schoolchildren … who decided all these things with reasoned and logical bases. It turns out that now everything is the other way around, which is religion, (Islam), which conditions and decides all aspects of society.
Ren says
They will flunk their exams anyway.
Eur says
Suspending a Muslim student is Islamophobia. Muslims are beings of light, if they give the wrong answer in an examination it is because of their infidels classmates. Classes, exams … the world should be due to ramadan, on Fridays it should be festive for Muslims to go to the mosque to pray … and so the global economy would collapse and it would be an Islamic dunghill, is what these fascists with djellaba claim.
LB says
Flunking them would be islamophobic (and potentially hazardous to teachers’ health).
Rarely says
Which is worse: having exams in the early hours of the day and making that an “even playing field” by doing so OR having exams at any time during the day giving the muslims an excuse for poor marks that they can use as an excuse to demand none of these kids be failed or held back?
It’s a kind of blackmail but high standards is the ultimate goal.
A much bigger problem would be when the curriculum becomes changed to accommodate Islamic values.
A line must be drawn between social accomodations and the substantial content of the education. For example, In Britain a few years ago there was a strong push to remove any mention of the Holocaust from the classroom.

We should not be bowing to Muslim demands at all.
Lookmann says
Give them a yard and they will take away miles and miles.
KJW says
I have heard that all too often. An in depth poll of Muslims in London had a large portion saying they want sharia law and also think that they should follow the laws of England (for the time being) but not if they conflict with Allah’s law.
Btw, on a bunch of anti-Islam websites, they did not like Trump’s Ramadan message. Trump isn’t doing or saying anything about these problems. Our Dept of Education needs to crack down on public schools too and Islam infiltration and coddling Muslims and all this affirmative action type bs that’s discriminatory towards other people/immigrants and self-centered such as fluff nonsense like Muslim Women’s Day of such things.
Rarely says
Agreed. However I don’t think we need to be unreasonable just because they are. We shouldn’t lower ourselves to their level.
It’s hard to decide where to draw the line exactly but probably not at “no accommodation whatsoever”.
Savvy Kafir says
I vote for “No accomodation whatsoever”.
We should make living in the West as unappealing for Muslims as possible. And we should make it clear that we will not make ANY concessions to their barbaric religious/ political/ legal system. We should make it clear that we really would prefer that they go back to where they (or their parents) came from.
Concessions made to Nazi Germany in the 1930s did not bring good results. It’s the same deal here — only MORE important, because the enemy is living & breeding, agitating, whining, & killing right here among us.
Anne says
Spot on Post, Savvy Kaffir!
gravenimage says
Wait–how is balking at bowing to Muslim demands “unreasonable”? How is not wanting to give Muslims special accomodations the same as Muslims robbing, raping, and slaughtering unbelievers?
KJW says
They want to make their holidays national holidays. Muslims You Tibe have expressed that too. It’s no wonder that Islamic countries that follow this are the least productive and Muslims who were born and raised in the US and were not accommodated, have done better with jobs, studies, etc.
A friend in Iran complains how a store will close during their prayers and Iran warns that those caught eating when they’re not supposed to will be punished. My friend also says there are a lot of stupid Muslims who don’t know what’s good for them, such as all those who supported Khkmeini’s 1979 Islamic Revolution. He’s an ex-Muslim. Their government helps drive them away from Islam, especially when they start to read all Islam’s books.
Really, the most pain in the butt immigrants EVER in US history…I don’t know about Germany, but it looks that way too.
KJW says
Btw, I wonder if Robert has ever talked about the detriment of Islam to, say, the economics of a country such as the USA. If they were in power casinos would be closed, bars and liquor shops closed, the interest on debt would be over-hauled, Valentine’s Day and Halloween products would be cancelled, in Saudi Arabia (who drives the Islamization and infiltration of Islam, does not let Christians celebrate Christmas in any outward way, so there are no Christmas products which is a huge retail holiday for stores, Xmas tree farmers, Santa’s at malls…think of everything.
They don’t have a good circular consumer economy. The censorship would be huge-past music, books, magazines, and history. Dating not allowed before marriage diminishes the things dating does: movies, restaurants, amusement parks, whatever we do. Would the Olympus have women swimmers swimming in burkinis? How many foods don’t qualify as halal? A Turkish store here has candy bars labeled as halal imported from Turkey.
Money talks! People who have gone to Saudi Arabia have told me that it is “joyless.”
Anne says
Think in terms of global “economics.” Imagine the billions and billions of manhours lost since the seventh century as millions of Muslims prayed five times a day. No wonder Muslim countries are so backward, excepting the lucky oil states where extraction and production were developed using WESTERN technology.
gravenimage says
Yes–Islam also impovershes its followers–and any people they conquer.
aguysomewhere says
Don’t blame he muslim for wanting to be muslim, blame the western leaders who label islam peace in the face of mounting evidence proving otherwise and cuddling islam like some teddy bear in their countries. Ofcourse the muslim wants ramadan, mosques, sharia, polygamy, halal food, patriarchy, quran, muhammad etc.
I compare it to taking a seed from a plant far away and planting it in a ripe environment, it will grow, it will spread, it may challenge indigenous plantlife that was already there.
They come from a culture that persecutes and genocides people who are not muslims.
andra says
It would be easy to stop this. Let your child starve is a crime in Germany – at least for non-Muslims. The authorities must forbid that children under 14 years fast. They also must advise the Schools to schedule class tests as well during ramadan as they do during the Christian Lenten Season.
But instead several German federal states make treaties with the Muslims which usually content that there are no class tests during ramadan. Very often they even decide that school cantines have to be closed during ramadan, as you must not tempt the Muslim pupils with food.
It is really sickening, how deep German authorities humiliate themselves and the German people in order to please the Muslim invadors, just disgusting.
mariam rove says
This is happening right here in America. In New brunswick, NJ where there is a large population of Muslims it is the same deal. They get their own holidays, when or when not to take a test and when and when not to go school etc….m

Regarding that islamic love of public displays of false piety(to a god who,remember,not only CURSES
Jews and Christians koran 9:30 but says “take not Jews and Christians for friends” k5 v51}and the
show they put on during ramadam,you might be interested to know that in the New Testament{which preaches God’s Love..in contrast with the koranic allah’s hate..)such behavir is revealed to be of no use to God..

“Do not perform your religious duties in public so that people will see what you do”

They are at war with us and we are not fighting back. Not giving in to them and making them follow OUR rules is the best way to fight back. Think about the future and not just the present. DO NOT LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOUR CHILDREN!
Crusades Were Right says
One of the (many) reasons that Islamic countries are dysfunctional economically is the nature of Islamic rituals. They “pray” instead of working or sleeping; waste tons of time memorizing Islamic texts they don’t even understand; starve themselves during the day, so they can’t concentrate on work; etc, etc.
Now, these absurd and harmful practices are being incorporated into Western societies in order to impose Islamic supremacy. In addition, the West’s economic efficiency will drop and living standards will decline.
What is needed, I think, is more Western societies following the example of Bavaria, which is making it a legal requirement to mount crosses on all public buildings. It is not the solution per se, but it’s a great start!
Eur says
Travel agencies have never recommended traveling to an Islamic country during the month of Ramadan … the country stops, economic activity is practically nil. Tourists can not do anything, they are totally ignored. In the West Muslims demand that the schools, factories … be lenient with them during this month … but they do not take vacations. Muslims work fewer hours, produce much less … it’s an economic disaster. Imagine a businessman who decided to be super tolerant and hired a lot of Muslims to help in the integration process … that businessman would be financially suicidal.
somehistory says
Why don’t they just keep their kids out of school for the month. If they fall behind, too bad.
No parent has the right to keep their child from eating or drinking all day. And for a month…it’s child abuse.
It’s all a matter of trying to control….their own kids, the schools, the governments. The only control they don’t exercise is….self control.
CogitoErgoSum says
I would think going without food or drink all day long would be much harder for a child than an adult. A child’s growing body needs nourishment more often than an adult, especially an active child who loves to play. Making a child fast just the same as an adult is very unfair and unhealthy. However, under Islam childhood can be taken away at the age of 9 for a girl whereupon she may be considered sexually mature. So by using Islamic logic, if a girl is an adult in that respect she is also an adult in terms of ability to fast.
Muhammad supposedly loved children, but I say it was only in the manner that a pedophile would. If Muhammad had really loved children he would have exempted them from fasting. I would say the same any parents who treated their children in such a way. They are emulators of a pedophile.
somehistory says
An adult male, on average, needs 15 calories per pound. An adult female, on average, needs 10 calories per pound.
A newborn needs 50 calories per pound.
A school-aged child would need somewhere in between. Unless the kid eats an overload of junk food and sits on the couch all day, they use up their calories. Before all of the games, and when schools had recess and PE, kids were rarely overweight.
It is child abuse to keep a child from eating and drinking. These creatures who force, or even encourage their child to “fast” all day and gorge in the dark, are not parenting; they are abusing.
And when they want the schools to go along with it, it’s an admission of abuse.
CogitoErgoSum says
Ah ha! I thought so. Thank you for doing the research on that. 🙂 The world needs to know these things.
somehistory says
YW. And, yes, people need to know.

Muhammad only “loved children” in that he loved raping a nine-year-old girl…
RichardL says
Last weekend the Bavarian police had massive checks on Munich airport. Who where they looking for? Families on their way to a vacation for which they took their children illegally out of school.
CogitoErgoSum says
I found a list of reasons for a Muslim to be excused from fasting during Ramadan. One of the reasons is traveling. Taking a vacation during Ramadan is a hypocrites way to get out of fasting.
Another reason is given as “compulsion.” Compulsion is defined a “one person forcing another to do something or not to do something against his will, by means of threats.” Parents forcing their children to fast is wrong ….. even under their own religion. Children should fast under their own free will. If fasting lowers their ability to make good grades on tests, maybe they substitute a fast during a time when there is no school.
Here is a link to the list:
