Is Mohamed Salah changing the way Muslims are seen in Liverpool and beyond?

- In Egypt, he is a national hero known as the "Fourth Pyramid". In Liverpool, football fans now simply call him the "Egyptian King".
In the space of a single record-breaking season, Mohamed Salah has emerged as a global superstar whose goals have helped carry Liverpool to Saturday's Champions League final against Real Madrid in Kiev, and Egypt to next month's World Cup finals in Russia.
But some see the 25-year-old's influence extending beyond the football pitch. In an era of rising Islamophobia and hate crime in the UK, Salah is also challenging prejudice and changing attitudes, with his Muslim identity celebrated in songs by Liverpool fans.
Middle East Eye went to fish and chip shops, mosques and to Liverpool's famous Anfield stadium to investigate the impact that Salah has had on a port city that has always celebrated its independent identity and openness to the world.
#MohamedSalah #Liverpool #Anfield
I am A South African Hindu who has Muslim family and friends. Religion is a private matter between an individual and his creator. I love Mohamed Salah, especially for the bridges that he is building thus reminding us that there is only one race: the human race!
We never walk alone
well i am an Egyptian muslim.....one good man doesn't mean that 1.6 billion are good...one bad man doesn't mean that 1.6 billion are bad....i have seen honest christians and devious muslim and vise versa....bottom line is to treat everyone based on their own merit...their own character...their own behaviour....treat them as it if you are treating yourself....Salah is a good man not just cause he is born muslim, not cause he is born egyptian but cause he choose to work hard, to be patient, to treat others like he would like to be treated and to never forget his roots....he wasn't born better he chose to be better....please don't leech yourselves onto that....just try to be better regardless of who you are.
Well said..
I totaly agree with you , i was born in Liverpool but because of my dad was brought up in Sirra Leone West Africa , i was the first white player to play for a black football team , even though i was abused by other teams , my team mates were always there for me , so i know what its like on the other side , Ha i when i came back to Liverpool i went on to play for Derby County and W B A, played for ENGLAND under 18s , but after this wasent good enough , think what im trying to say is that if it wasent for all the support from Pepal were i grew up and all my team mates i would have just given in , they gave me the support to go on including my mum and dad.
It dose not matter were you come from or what your religion is , everyone should be able to stand together and respect each other , this is my wish , but might take some time.
Absolutely! It is the humanity in us that counts first and foremost, not your religion, creed or colour. Salah is an example of that which makes us human. His humility speaks volumes.
@Hammer 001 yea exactly....everyone of us is the sum of all he/she is...his background play an important role but more importantly how he chose to reflect on his background....islam could teach you to be humble or it could teach you that you are better than everyone else by default.....it's how you absorb and how you work with it....it worked for him and it didn't work for someone else....we can neither single a factor to say whether it has all the credit nor say that it had zero effect....we are made of zillions of factors....but as a muslim i don't like how some muslims leech on the success of other muslims and try to turn a blind eye to failures.
@@marcturner3463 amen to that......i hope that one day it will
I worked in Liverpool before and I loved it. Tbh they have a beautiful room dedicated to Muslims to pray and I've used it. #Respect Liverpool.
Lies
@@nasranur9053 liverpool hater
Nasra Nur no lies our religion is Alhamdulillah growing
Not only is he a great footballer, he is also an amazing and humble person who, for example, gave a lot back to his hometown in Egypt. So yes I do think he is helping for that as well and it's well needed. I don't know how anyone could hate him.
Those who mocked the fans for praying are a disgrace because for me, being a LFC fan is something that brings people together no matter where in the world you come from- no matter the colour of your skin, no matter what your language is, no matter what's your faith, you'll never walk alone. We are Liverpool fans and united in that passion. YNWA!
Well put Jonathan, we need more Mo Salahs in the UK to eliminate hatred and bigotry.
John Smith Good on you John. Someone needs to speak the truth against this foolish propaganda. Letting these nut jobs normalize Islamic prayers in football stadiums will end with people hanging by the goal posts like they’ve done in Iran and S. Arabia. These dip shits trying to use the term ‘Islamophobia’ to try to silence the rightful critics of Islam need to be made to answer this question: ‘Why do they think Islamophobia tends to increase as the number of Muslims increases?’ They also need to answer ‘in what Islamic country have Christians and Jews been tolerated as equals?’ Unfortunately there aren’t any. Islam will continue to spread and destroy British culture, thanks to ‘feel good’ videos like this. If Mo could convince his fellow Muslims to reform their religion and to send their imams and mullahs back to their caves, then there might be something to talk about,.., but I’m not holding my breath.
@@numbers7n I was in Kazan, Russia this summer; there there is a huge mix and they have a church and a mosque standing next to each other. Some other regions of Russia are the same. Lebanon has a huge mix as well of both religions, and Syria too to some extent. Damascus has large Christian neighbourhoods. I got an online friend in Kazakhstan, a mix there as well.
John Smith Agreed. They speak so loudly and know so little. They need to get better at research and they need to re-examine their underlying assumptions in the face of contradictory evidence. Instead, they read less and post more (it seems)! Lazy, unexamined living has never been so dangerous as it is now with what is at stake.
@@numbers7n czcams.com/video/BnUiIf0K_VI/video.html The Virgin Mary or the Mother of Christ mentioned her story in Islam and called the Surat by her name .. Listen to it Quran
To add. Liverpool gained nearly 100 million fans in Egypt!

im crying bro.. thnx Mo Salah
Tbh there are many Liverpool footballers who are Muslim like:
Salah,Mane,Shaqiri,Keita and Matip.
@Angelo Maraboli that is totally wrong
Matip is muslim ? Really that is great
Not that it really matters what religion he is, but what's your reference for Matip being a muslim? He has a german mom and a cameroonian father...that's about all most ppl know
@Angelo Maraboli Is Pele white? Is Usain Bolt white? I think you're a bit deluded my friend....
For Real, Mane was doing the same thing a year before when he was signed by Liverpool. Maybe because he is black. I don't mean it as insulting, I have just had white people think Muslims are only Arabs.
I'm not Muslim but I respect the real religious Muslim. Is nice when you see a Muslim with good behavior and is really a inspiration for other people who are not Muslim like me he's a very good player and very likeble human I like him a lot and I respect him because he's a very good human being.
Mo Salah is amazing footballer, he humble, helped his peoples in Egypt
Liverpool FC has shown the beauty of uniting the people around the world regardless of religion or race. Thanks to all Liverpool supporters!
👏👏👏👍👌✌🎩
If I would describe Salah in one word I’d say he’s humble
Actions speak louder than words.
Lead by example!
Muhammad Salah is great role model. There's also Sadio Mane and Kante of Chelsea. I love them all. Great embassadors for the English Premier League
UK Muslims
Also pogba
UK Muslims it’s spelled ambassadors 🙂
I’ve got huge love and respect for those footballers too. Kante and salah are very similar in a lot of ways, they’re such lovely, humble and sweet human beings.
Masha Allah subhan Allah! His name in its self is the most blessed name! Mohammed. We are so so proud of him we all pray that Allah continues to shower his blessings upon him Ameen!🤲💜
Salah,Mane,Shaqiri,Emre Can,Keita all of them are Muslims
Game Zone can doesn’t play for Liverpool anymore
Is shaqiri Muslim?
@@ashganelmghraby6232 yes

Game Zone Right bro
Ad they asked Mohamed Ali before, how did you become the best ? his answer was it's not me it Allah! all my strength all my skills comes from Allah.
@Hammer 001 If you believe in that that your opinion and I respect that, but Allah he isn't a religion, he is the creator, and if he create you he can give strenghth to your body if you asked him so, but how can you ask him if you don't believe in him? and always remember that when you were unborn child, where were you ?
illogical really though if you think long and hard about science and morals and life in general.
@@AhmedElsayed-fd6gr in that case Allah must be really bad at creating things... He is a God yet he couldn't create someone of Messi's calibre... Sad that Salah is the best that your Allah can do..
PS: stfu! It has nothing to do with religion... Salah might get his confidence and determination from his believe in Allah... But that doesn't mean Allah (or God) is the reason why he is so good.. you're not only discrediting Salah and his hardwork but also a whole lot of people who work day in and day out to train him..
@@hssy2jrocker Your reply is ridiculous as hell, you guys say shit without using your minds.
@Hammer 001 Make your comment short and straight to the point no one will read that newspaper.
Liverpool fans are the best in the world

As a muslim i fell very proud.... love u salah, keep it.. love from Bangladesh!!!
Please read the history as to how and why the neo-political cult called islam was conjured up by a petty but extremely shrewd warlord sitting in a secluded cave. Please connect the dots.
The only way muslims will come to terms with people of others faiths is if they have all the hateful and violence-inciting parts expunged from the qur'an. There is nothing sacrosanct about it. Reform or be reformed.
1. FALSE Abrahamic Prophet of God Muhammad.
2. Islam is NOT a religion.
3. Islam is a Godless apostate murdering death cult disguised as a religion.
@@rockyzrockyx917 Entirely agree & support you, bro. Now let us wave up all the sleepers and fence-sitters and convince them to convince all the muslims.
The only way we can free the muslims from the yoke of islam is if we have all the hateful and violence-inciting parts expunged from their qur'an. Till this is done they will continue to behave as they must.
It's the practice of death for apostasy that keeps Islam alive. Without the practice of death for apostasy, Islam would collapse. Aditionally, the Islamic Quran is a forgery. Proof below:

i Love Mo Salah. Polite, Skillful and God Fearing
I was in Amsterdam watching the Liv vs Man U game and let me tell you that was one of the best experiences of my life. I can't imagine watching a game like that in Anfield I would probably cry if I saw Liverpool lift the trophy I've waited since I was 10 years old, I am now 26.
Champions league 2019, Liverpool. Long live the Egyptian king
Mo Salah is such a great role model absolutely love him! ❤️

I used to b man united fan but after seeing this I can't hold myself than being Mohammed salah fan
I'm so proud to be Arabian I'm so proud that salah is Arabian as me ❤
He's actually Egyptian. Egyptians were Arabized, but ethnically they're not Arabs. Although Egyptians linguistically and racially are related to Arabs and other Semitic people.

Islam is a very beautiful and peaceful religion if you learn it from the correct sources not from the internet,besides it’s the fastest growing faith in the world,thanks salah for your positive contribution
Hahabaabbaab
According to shariah law salllah it's a traitor because his friends are qafirs
Tate mctate because they don’t understand their purpose of life,been in the West gat nothing to do with them loosing there Islam,there are millions in American and Europe practicing there religion perfectly,and also not any single Muslim is perfect so as human they bound to make mistakes
Albina Jeta that dosent make salah a traitor it’s not true,any work of life you can have colleagues that are not Muslim,neighbors as well but it dosent mean you don’t have to be nice to them,they are not making him do anything against Islam so how is he a traitor,come on Bro stop the negativity
Tate mctate still it’s the fastest growing religion in the world,millions are doing great with the faith so couple of thousand mislead by the West happens just pray for them not a big deal
I love this and I'm a Man United Fan. Peace and love we're all equal regardless of race, religion.
I'm here after the champions league 2019

karim Adel i heard that song by marc kennedy or someone like that
Apart from Salah, now Liverpool has many Muslim players, Shaqiri, Mane, Naby Keita, Joe Gomez
@Hammer 001 I am an atheist, but I would never think badly of someone who has a belief. You come over as a bigot. Illiterate, too.
salah is not from the middle east! He is from Egypt in Africa!
hr is an African first , Egypt , middle east . we are Egyptians and proud if our Africa and its lovely nations
Egypt is also part of Middle East you uncultured swine
Lol go study geography you uneducated bitch
He is from an Arab family
LOL
I love you Salah , may Allah keep you safe Ameen
Very well said @ 7:08 , I pray that some Muslim football players will also be a good example among Muslims and non Muslims. Because seeing them that way make me at peace 💕💕💕
Ramadan mubarak everyone!!.. 🤗
Liverpool has been the home for multi cultural diversity since industrial revolution!
Spot on mate Scouse not english.
Glory be to God Almighty has made many people from all over the world love Mu Salah This virtue and generosity of God few people get that love
Ga tau kenapa, saya nangis terharu nonton video ini. Terima kasih Salah, sangat mengispirasi
Mohamed salah is amazing African player
Arab
@@TeekoNST find a life, Egypt is not arab you sick creature.
@@kems1977 omg how stupid can you be Egypt on one point was called the United Arab u dummass
LOL we are not African. We are African continentally not Ethnically. Just like how Saudis are Asian continentally but not ethnically. That is why we call that region "Middle East" Which begins with Egypt in Africa and ends with Iran in west Asia because that region has it's unique history and racial mixture.
I hope he not leaving liverpool . Stay forever Mo salah .
Great team, great supporters, great city. One of a number of Muslims in the team, Salah is understated and noble as well as being a great player. It is amazing how black and Muslim footballers can do so much for international understanding and respect for other races and creeds. Success born of cooperation to achieve a common aim brings us all together.
سبحان الذي ثبته على دينا ... الى الامام محمد صلاح ❤❤❤❤
Hopefully Mo salah becomes liverpools biggest legend.
People in Liverpool don’t judge until they get to know a person
May Almighty Allah give you more n more success..........
Thanks salah for changing the perception of the people of Liverpool you are an incredible gift from allah to this world .and thanks liverpool peoples also who have given us and salah so much love and respect .

This is not about religion but sport, everyone should be treated equally, religion has brought divisions, hatred and enemity amongst people, this must be shunned and denounced at all levels
Our religion Islam has not brought any of these most likely people from your religion and others but I’m proud to have a beautiful religion like Islam Alhamdulillah and that our religion is increasing day by day
There is no doubt he is an exceptional player on the field. There's no also doubt that off the field he is a real modest, humble and down to earth human being. That's him and those characteristics are what have made who he is and kept him grounded same time. How much of it is got to do with his family upbringing, DNA and/or religion, I really don't know but no doubt there are good and bad in every nation, religion, race, culture etc. I also think ultimately a person is who he is based on the decisions and choices they make. With his effort to live his certain way, Mo Salah is a good ambassador for Islam exactly because of how he modestly he lives his life, how he graciously treats others and how humble he is.... If only others can also be better ambassadors for their religion, nation, race etc. as well.... In fact Mo Salah is a role model for all people irrespective of their background....
ربنا يحبب فيك خلقه و يبارك لك في كل اعمالك دنيا و دين

@@lameaa6242 Turkey is in Europe 😂 I'll just assume you forgot to add and Asia.
Before I go further I'll like you to answer these.
1. What qualifies a nation as Middle east?
2. Of what relevance or importance is the Middle East?
3. Was there a sign up form and is there a way out of it?
Awkward Silence search it up and you’ll find that a part of Turkey is in Asia:
The European portion of Turkey is known as Thrace, while the Asian is called Anatolia or Asia Minor; Istanbul straddles both as the world's only city located on two continents.
