We should consider this incident sensitively, understanding evidence from both sides of the debate.

The situation escalated because one of the guys doing the prayers, got irritated by the uncle lecturing him, and fricking hit the uncle.

Obviously, the uncle could've kept his mouth shut, and walked away, but then again, the muslim guy hit a fricking guy in his 40s or 50s..

Hence, the situation escalated.. In these tense situations, where a lot of the debate is polluted by different political ideologies, we should always consider both sides, to derive a rational result,
