This article is a dynamic list of genocides, cultural genocides and acts of ethnic cleansing under Muslim regimes from the origin of Islam to present day.
This article is a dynamic list of genocides, cultural genocides and acts of ethnic cleansing under Muslim regimes from the origin of Islam to present day.  


Mutual population exchanges, massacres and war crimes involving non-Muslims and Muslims (such as Greece–Turkey, India–Pakistan or Israel–Palestine) are excluded from this list.
Such actions are not uniquely perpetrated by any particular religion or culture and this page should not be used to suggest otherwise, nor used in an attempt to justify contemporary human rights abuses. [[w:Persecution of Muslims|Muslims themselves suffer persecution]] in various parts of the world today and have suffered genocides (for example, [[w:Bosnian genocide|in Bosnia]]). However, it can be seen that regimes in the Islamic world have not been uniquely peaceful, harmonious, or innocent of the kinds of attrocities perpetrated throughout history.
 
Excluded from the list below are mutual population exchanges, massacres and war crimes involving non-Muslims and Muslims (such as Greece–Turkey, India–Pakistan or Israel–Palestine).
