Detailed Solution

When one religion is given official status by the state at the expense of other religions, it leads to religious-based discrimination. The countries like Saudi Arabia, where the state religion is Islam, people are not allowed to follow other religions publicly. Sometimes, people of other religions are forced to convert or are mass executed. In many Islamic countries, people of other religions face religious-based discrimination. In such countries, people of majority religion support the ideology that their religion is supreme and people of other religions should not be treated equally. In countries where multiple religions are simultaneously present, the principle of secularism helps to accommodate religious diversity, but not all countries follow secularism.
