As the video gained traction online, many concerned individuals flooded the comment section to share their thoughts on the incident
See some reactions below:
@__BigJo: “Only religion people are afraid to leave. It’s very interesting when they say they want peace but don’t act that way.”
@Abills: “What if the kid has ADHD? Not everyone has the ability to memorize huge volumes of words medically-speaking.”
@stmajoraa: “This is not God’s design for us but man is more cruel to man than the devil is.”
@KEOWeb3: “As long as innocent tears fall, I’m sure god and all the prophets condemn that action”
@thatsreallyj: “Bet they would do this to a child that isn’t of African descent…these religions run by non-black/African descent will never benefit black people.”
@Alameen___Abba: “Whoever did this to this boy will be traced and brought to justice. This is too cruel and goes against the teachings of Islam. Islam is a religion of peace, does not promote cruelty, and does not condone bullying in any way.”
