Needless to say the Muslims who are clear on their understanding of Islam would agree to the fact that suicide bombing is not an act that is allowed to be performed. And here by Muslims I don’t mean religious scholars and preachers – I am talking about the common people. There are some basic fundamental teachings that we cherish because Islam talks about peace. So do all the other religions around the globe. And suicide bombing was never a part of these learnings.
I do not remember us being taught that we have the right to call another Muslim a non-Muslim. In fact, we were clearly told that he is not a Muslim who calls another Muslim a kafir. We don’t have the right to judge and decide on who is practicing what and his/her religious inclinations. Our aim should be to focus on our lives and ensure we are fulfilling our role and responsibilities as a true Muslim and we will get so busy, we wouldn’t get the time to think about others in the first place.
Another thing, we as kids were told that committing suicide is wrong in Islam because God gave us this life and He shall take it away as, when and how He has decided. Besides that hurting yourself is too not permissible.
And suicide bombing is certainly not a part of Islam. Some ignorant fools have this belief that they should kill themselves in the name of God and kill others who don’t deserve to be alive while doing so – suicide bombing. And this is jehad and they are shaheeds. This looks like an absurd thought with no logic. Hurting yourself is not allowed, killing someone else is not allowed, calling another a non-Muslim is not allowed, yet they go on doing things and call it Islam. You can just pull your hair! It makes no sense.
Years ago we read Talibans and Usama bin Laden were the enemies of USA. But now their list of enemies have grown. They are everywhere doing what they do best. And even Pakistan itself has become so disturbed by their presence. It is so weird every other day we hear news updates on bomb blasts. People are just dying.
It is so upsetting that yesterday, in Lahore another suicide bombing took place to get rid of Allama Sarfaraz Ahmed Naeemi – who was a renowned religious scholar who openly condemned that Talibans and their ways were un Islamic. And so they chose a Friday and got the scholar down along with others who definitely didn’t deserve to die because they had gone to pray. How can this be right?
So the madness of Talibans is spreading. And people who have the courage to stand up and speak their mind openly against them are targeted to spread fear among the rest. Does this mean people should stop going to mosques for prayers, do we stop going for shopping in the market, do we stop sending kids to schools…because they seem to be everywhere for their so called jihad. And when will this shit end?
