religious fanaticism has really made us backward. A progressive life in this century is possible only after abandoning it. This is how Europe developed and progressed..
What is it about religious beliefs that people are too intolerant against other humans? Does believing in ideologies and writings from some hundred or thousand years ago more important than someone’s current existence?

The picture right there is that of Farkhunda Malikzada.


Farkhunda was a 27-year-old decent girl, working as a volunteer teacher while she studied Islamic law.

Her dream was to find a good husband, start her own family and become a judge. She was known to be a brave woman who speaks of her mind.

But sometimes life isn't fair.

What happened to her shocked her country and made headlines around the world.

This is her complete story:

One day, on her way home, Farkhunda stopped by the Shah-e Du Shamshira shrine, in the centre of Kabul. She said her prayers and then got into an argument about the selling of charms - little scraps of paper bearing Koranic verses.

Farkhunda regarded these as superstitious and un-Islamic (and she's correct - Islam does not allow the use of charms even if they contain Koranic verses). She was trying to make this point to the caretaker at the shrine, Zain-ul-Din, when he began shouting: "This woman is an American and she has burned the Koran!"

A crowd gathered. Some began to film what happened next on their phones. The footage is extremely disturbing, but people were watching her.

Farkhunda, veiled, stands just inside the gate to the shrine, denying that she has burned the Koran.

"The Americans have sent her!" a man shouts. "Don't call me American!" says Farkhunda. "If you say anything I will smash your mouth," replies the man.

"Don't film me brother," pleads Farkhunda. "It's not filming," says the man holding the phone, before adding: "Why did you burn the Koran? Don't you have any shame?"

Farkhunda is pulled out from the shrine, pushed to the ground and kicked. "Kill her!" comes a cry. Then, after gun shots from the police, the crowd moves back to reveal a figure sitting upright on the tarmac, her veil and headscarf gone, her hair in disarray and her hands and face red with blood. Dazed, Farkhunda stares up at the camera. One of her shoes has fallen off.

"What pains my heart is when she's sitting like this and her head is bleeding," says one who witnessed. "The police are just standing there. Why don't they bring a car over, or do something?”.

Before long, police gave up attempting to hold the crowd back. Footage shows them watching as Farkhunda is struck down, kicked, beaten with sticks, and run over with a car that drags her 200m down a street.

Farkhunda was thrown to the dry riverbed and large rocks were thrown onto her. After the stoning, Farkhunda's body was set alight, signalling the end of the prolonged attack.

Farkhunda was killed on Thursday 19th March 2015 in Kabul, Afghanistan.

The mobile phone footage of the killing was soon uploaded and shared on the internet. Many people boasted online about their role in the attack, or made clear their support.

Although President Ashraf Ghani condemned the lynching and ordered an investigation, some officials were quick to endorse it - including the deputy minister of information and culture, Semin Ghazal Hasanzada and Kabul police spokesman Hashmat Stanekzai. The following day, after Friday prayers, some prominent imams also praised the crowd's actions.

Farkhunda's family were told by police to leave Kabul for their own safety.

But by the evening of the following day, the narrative had changed. An investigation by the ministry of Hajj and Religious Affairs found no evidence that Farkhunda had burned the Koran.

The imams and officials retracted their statements of support for the lynching, and in time Hasanzada and Stanekzai were sacked.

Farkhunda went from being a figure of loathing to a martyr. More than 1,000 people gathered for her funeral. In an unprecedented act for a country where burials are often male-only events, her coffin was carried to the grave by women.

"My friends and I, we promised each other, 'We won't let any man touch this coffin,'" says women's rights activist Sahra Mosawi. "They'd come forward to carry the coffin and we said, 'Don't touch it. Where were you that day when 150 men attacked Farkhunda? Where were you?'”.

Two days later, on 24 March 2015, thousands of women and men marched through Kabul, chanting "We are all Farkhunda!" and demanding justice. Some of the protesters painted their faces red to mirror the image of Farkhunda's bleeding face.

Forty-nine men were charged in connection with the murder.

At the televised trial that took place six weeks later, 11 police officers were sentenced to a year in prison for their failure to defend Farkhunda, eight civilians were given 16-year terms, and four death sentences were handed down. One of those sentenced to death was Zain-ul-Din, the shrine's caretaker. Another was Yaqoob, the boy in the sunglasses shop.

Farkhunda really didn't deserve such an ending. May her soul rest in perfect peace.

I have no words to describe the monsters involved in such brutality.

BECAUSE MAN POSSESSES A SPIRITUAL MEDIUM YEARNING TO BE FILLED. SAME REASON SOME PEOPLE WOULD WORSHIP SATAN AND SELL THEIR SOULS TO IT BUT VEHEMENTLY DENY THE EXISTENCE OF THE MOST HIGH GOD. THE SPIRITUAL HOLE IS DEEP.

They think they are doing God a service while they just contravened one of the ten commandments of God..


Thou shall not kill!

Hell awaits them

Firstly, Islam teaches that Muslims should attack and persecute non-muslims in different ways possible.

Secondly, many people exercise this primitive/innate nature to discriminate. This nature is responsible for things like tribalism, racism and religious discrimination.

I believe those are the two major factors.

The third one being that political leaders often exploit the two factors above to manipulate people and use them for selfish political missions often hidden from the masses.

My God show us all the way.
