A pastor chained a nine year old boy in a church. I am a Muslim and I know his action does not represent Christianity. It's against d teachings of Christianity. So I will rather attack the character of the pastor alone not Christianity. This is d injustice people do to Islam, a Muslim will do something devilish and the religion of islam will be attacked. Blame only the action of the Muslim (in person) not Islam, he represents himself not Islam. We Muslims are not perfect but Islam is perfect. I call upon the media to redefine the concept of terrorism and remove the word Islamic from anything that has to do with terrorism. |

ashson: Allah's Messenger killed some men in Makkah who used to satirize and harm him, and the poets who survived fled in all directions for their lives. So, if you want to save your skin, hasten to Allah's Messenger. He never kills those who come to him repenting. If you refuse to do as I say, it is up to you to try to save your skin by any means. The Sealed Nectar, p. 521 Violence and Islam go hand-in-hand. |
