Imams Refuse To Perform Funeral Prayers For Terrorists Who Carried Out London At by spartoo: 11:30am On Jun 06, 2017
A group of over 130 imams and
Muslim religious leaders across Britain
announced that they won't perform the
traditional Islamic funeral prayers for the men
who carried out Saturday's terror attack in
London.
In a public statement, the imams said their
pain at the suffering of the victims and their
families led them to take this momentuous
decision.

Condemning the attack which claimed the lives
of seven people and injured 47 others, the
group said the actions of the perpetrators was
"indefensible" and they did not deserve the
ritual that is normally performed for every
Muslim, regardless of their deeds.

"Consequently, and in light of other such
ethical principles which are quintessential to
Islam, we will not perform the traditional
Islamic funeral prayer over the perpetrators and
we also urge fellow imams and religious
authorities to withdraw such a privilege. This is
because such indefensible actions are
completely at odds with the lofty teachings of
Islam," the group said in the statement.

The Islamic leaders expressed their shock and
disgust at the "cold-blooded murder" of
innocent people and said the terrorists were
misguided in carrying out the violent attacks,
as they had no religious legitimacy.
"Though at no time is it acceptable, that such
ruthless violence was perpetrated during the
season of Ramadan , in which Muslims
worldwide focus on pious devotion, prayer,
charity and the cultivation of good character,
demonstrates how utterly misguided and distant
the terrorists are from our faith and the
contempt which they hold for its values," the
statement reads.

Describing the attackers as "vile murderers"
who sought to divide society and instil fear,
the imams urged people to unite and ensure
that the terrorists fail in their objective.

Muslims don't need ID card, what is required to become a Muslim
is believing that "There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is his
messenger".

So those attackers qualify to being muslims.

George Bush Jr is a Christian and prior to his Iraq invasion, he said God told him to attack Iraq.

Tony Blair said exactly the same thing. These two guys are christians and they ruined not only Iraq to the ground but also Afganistan to name a few.


You be the judge

Of course, so long as their struggle is christian-based and they
have biblical backings for their actions.

Yes, they are Christians,
Guess what ?
Most people don't care about what happens in some remote countries.
Islamic jihadist would have been ignored if they stick to their native
country and cause havoc there.

But they chose to export terror and make life unbearable for humans
everywhere thus earning them the infamous label of global terrorists.

You may expend great energy in convincing people of some christian
terrorists operating somewhere but most won't take you serious because
it has no effect on their own personal lives. Of all the problems in the
world, why should anyone care about some christian terrorists operating
in a country they will probably never visit ?

Finally, existence of christian terrorists does not justify jihadists' actions.
Terrorism is condemned not because of the perpetrators but due to the
carnage it leaves in its paths.
