Sir, In the February issue of The Muslim News sister Ayesha Siddiq asks “why so much hatred against Muslims?” The answer is with the Muslim community or to be precise with the minority disillusioned and brainwashed section of the of the Muslims. They bomb and kill not only the fellow Muslims either for politics or sectarian beliefs and disputes, but also the innocent people in the Western world, although the Qur’an says:
1. Whoever kills a human being except for retaliation and for spreading corruption in the earth, it would be tantamount to killing the whole mankind. (5:32)
2. As for those who divide their religion and break up into sects, you have no concern at all with them. Their case rests with Allah and He will tell them what they have been doing.(6:159)
3. No race has the exclusive favour of Allah. (57:29)
4. No compulsion in religion.(2:256)
Yours,
