This is a very sensitive and critical topic that must handled with care, and I am glad you brought this up. Some history teachers would even afraid to teach something like this because of the possible reactions that may follow. Topics like these is what influences how people react toward each other and how they view the world.
As you know, there are lot of crimes happening all over the world. Most of these crimes are common in almost every country and are committed by the same organization. This organization happens to have members who practice the muslim faith. Although, we should never assume and say that every muslim person we come across are members of this organization, it is something people see everyday (whether a few miles from their location or from the media), and they become convinced that it is true. People like Donald Trump discriminate against muslims for this reason. I am sure you heard his comments about banning muslims from entering the United States.
You may have a friend who is muslim and you know for a fact that your friend has good character, yet your friend gets called out for being associated with that organization who is committed to doing harm to others.
