Muslim killjoys recently took to social media to “slut-shame” Indian model/actress Fatima Sana Shaikh, best known for her Bollywood films as well as recently gracing the cover of the Indian edition of GQ magazine.

Clad in a rather modest monokini, Shaikh recently completed a photoshoot on the sandy beaches of the vacation hot spot of the Maldives Islands, located just a few hundred miles south of India.

But for some, even an unassuming one-piece is enough to be the proverbial burrs under their collective saddles.

As reported by The Indian Express,

Fatima Sana Shaikh created a storm on the internet on Wednesday when she shared her latest photoshoot pictures wearing a swimsuit. Little did the actor know that she will be a target of trolling and so called moral police.

As soon as the 25-year-old posted her hot pictures on Instagram, several hate messages started pouring in. And what invited her the wrath of social media users was her ‘indecency during the month of Ramadan’.

Yes, you read that right. Fatima’s team got in touch with indianexpress.com and told us that the photoshoot actually happened two months back, and the actor had only shared some of the pictures recently.

Fatima who is currently in Malta shooting for her next, Thugs of Hindostan is being slut-shamed in the name of religion for wearing inappropriate clothes during the holy month.

The Indian news service also cited one outraged person admonishing Shaikh to “show some respect n dignity towards the religion simply keeping the muslim name n doin indecent act wth only further malign Islam as it doesn’t promote nudity… ”

One individual also took to Shaikh’s Instagram account with a posting in pidgin Urdu-English;

“I know ap naam se Muslim lagti ho kaam se Muslim nhi ho u r non Muslim.”

Loosely translated, that means “I know that you are not Muslim. It is Muslim like you who is not Muslim.”

The Indian Express also reported, “There are other comments from the ‘Guardians of Islam’ that followed one after the other. Though Fatima hasn’t replied to any of the comments yet, still there were many of her fans who came out in support of the young actor.”

“You are beautiful and no matter what people say you will be an ideal for every girl in India or outside. You represent strength. And girl don’t you just stop at that flawless bikini, you got what they don’t have be proud of it and show it off because I am sure the gods are showing you off as their success ❤ stay strong,” read one of the comments.
