A video showing two men on a bike stopping to harass and pull the skullcap off the head of a person who appears to be a Muslim man is being shared on social media.

The claim: The video is being shared to claim that it shows Hindus harassing a Muslim man, who retaliated strongly. It is being shared with the hashtag '#MuslimsUnderAttack'.

(Archived versions of more posts sharing this claim can be seen here, here, and here.)

But...?: The video does not show a real incident and is a scripted video.

  • It was made by a content creator named Muklesur Ali.

How did we find out the truth?: We ran a reverse image search on the video using Google Lens, which led us to a similar video on a YouTube channel named 'Muklesur Bhaijaan'.

  • This video was a clearer and longer version of the viral video.

  • On this page, we came across a few other videos with the same theme, claiming to show people harassing men belonging to the Muslim community. You can watch them here, here, and here.

  • We took a look at this channel’s description and saw that it mentioned creating ‘blogging riding videos' and scripted videos.

The channel's description states that it makes scripted videos.

  • The Quint had previously debunked another video by this content creator in February 2025, when it had gone with another false communal claim about a man harassing a elderly Muslim person.

We debunked another video by Muklesur Bhaijaan.

Conclusion: A scripted video is being shared with the false claim that it shows some men harassing a Muslim man.
