Muslim memes or Islamic memes or Halal memes are one type of Internet meme which usually contain calls for adherence to Islamic religious teachings.[1]
Most Muslim memes contain calls to adhere to Islamic teachings, or to stay away from prohibitions in Islam.[2] In their presentation, it is not uncommon for Muslim memes to offend their readers in order to remind them of their religious duties.[3]
Origin
[edit]It is not known where the first Islamic memes were introduced. However, there are several types of Muslim memes that are known to have emerged earlier than others.
"Stay Halal Brother"
[edit]One of the earliest representations of Islamic memes is the phrase "Stay halal brother" which is usually combined with a poster of the Indian Muslim preacher Zakir Naik or the starfish character Patrick Star.[4][5]
SpongeBob SquarePants
[edit]Some memes are made using Islamic words against the background of the animated film characters SpongeBob SquarePants. Trends like this can usually be found in Indonesia.[citation needed]
Usage
[edit]Islamic memes can be found widely on social media such as Instagram,[2] YouTube, WhatsApp, and others.[3]
Feedback
[edit]The majority of Muslims generally accept the use of Islamic memes as a means of introducing Islam to the world.[6] Some information experts from Indonesia regard Islamic memes as a means of preaching religion in a practical and easy way.[7]
