Such heroes..

(Going off topic as doorstar has shown his grievance)

I think ISPR/PTV should promote Muslims reciting Naat about Hz Ibrahim, Musa and Isa (AS). The verses can be agreed upon the commonality of our religions.

Saleem Raza also recited Naat despite he wasn't a Muslim. Plus, it will encourage harmony and a sense of owing all those Prophets.

Like Isai has been made a 'bad' word (Khadim Rizvi). Christians wanted to be called "Masehi". Whereas, Isai means followers of Hz Isa (AS). In fact, Muslims can be called Isai too as we think we are the true followers of Hz Isa (AS). Similarly, we are Musavai and Ibrahimi and Adami (Aadam AS).

I guess, to break the stereotypes we should recite "naats" for Hz Isa (AS), Hz Maryam (AS), Hz Musa (AS), Hz Ibrahim (AS).

Why Muslims cannot recite something like this:

If some concepts are not compatible, then just change it.

A Jewish man was among the Martyrs of Badr, and we all know as Muslims the status of the Shuhada of Badr in Islam, It doesn't matter if he was Christian because he wasn't fighting for a religious cause but a country/his home and also it also doesn't matter what your religion is (Jewish or Christian) as long as you are fighting to defend yourself from a brutal enemy or fighting for Haq (truth) you still have chance standing in the presence of the creator. May Allah over look his sins and Allow him the company of the companions of the Jannat.

I and many other Pakistanis are forever in debt to Christian soldiers who served the armed forces honourably. May Lt Colonel (Retd) Derek Joseph rest in peace.

essential Islamic beliefs that salvation is only for members of Islam

My concern grows for Mother Teresa and all the non-muslims philanthropists who put humanity before anything else.

Isn't there a hadith that a person who keeps a watchful eye on the border, his eyes will be saved from hellfire, unsure though. I hope the deceased Lt.Col gets his salvation somehow.

we are kafir according to many on Twitter no matter how long we served but those with foot long beards who fight against Pakistan and those who plunder it are true momineen?

thank you!

Sir, even if he destroyed 100 Indian tanks to save lives of 1000 Muslim soldiers, we as a nation will ensure to find a condition that he MUST enter the gates of hell.

Allah forgives whom He wills, punishes whom He wills...end of discussion.

Armenian parentage: one of my proofs that anyone from anywhere can become a son of Pakistan and love Pakistan (being sub-continental is not a precondition to become a Pakistani) !

the one who had to change his name from Noel Dias to Saleem Raza? or some other?

if him then he sang it as part of his profession not for harmony between mazhahib. though he did change his name for the purpose of harmonizing himself with his surroundings and failed at it miserably and ended up emigrating

My father, a PAF officer was taught at PAF Lowertopa by a lot of Polish PAF officers from a very young age. They moulded him into the man that he was. I grew up with names like Middlecoat and Cecil being taken in reveared tones along with the likes of Rafiqui, Alauddin, MM Alam.
This is extremely unfortunate that our society as a whole has become so judgemental.

molvi sahb, did the positive Ayaat concerning the Jews and Christians get abrogated? if so, when? by whom? Allah? turks? persians? indians?

Bro, ignore him... he ain't worth it cause he will try to take the extreme examples from the times of Prophet to implement on this Christian, or any other Non Muslim. Trust me I won't sweat on it.

Bringing in religion to discredit a defender is unfair.
He fought for Pakistan and guarded it against all odds.

On this day, he deserves utmost respect from all of us.
He is pride of Pakistan and we are greatly indebted to him for his services.

A big middle finger to the religious extremist scum.
