An open letter to Maulana Ilyas Qadri

[Awesome]

http://twocircles.net/2011jan12/killing_salman_taseer_open_letter_maulana_ilyas_qadri.html

Aassalam-o Alikum

We are unable to restrain ourselves from writing to you with regard to the recent killing of Mr. Salman Taseer, governor of Punjab (Pakistan), because it is learnt that the man allegedly responsible for this killing is a cadre of your organization Dawate-islami (jamat).

We would like to request you to ponder if this is in conformity with the teachings of Islam and the path which the Prophet has shown us. We reproduce below some verses of the naa’t, describing Prophet’s personality, which we have heard on your channel several times.

salaam us par ke jis ney khoon key pyason ko qabain deen
salaam us par ke jis ney gaaliyaan sun kar duaien deen
salaam us par ke asrare mohabbat jis ney sikhlaeen
salaam us par ke jis ney zakhm khaa kar phool barsaey
salaam us par ke jo majruh huaa bazaar-e Taif mein …

The person responsible for the killing seems to be the anti-thesis of the above-mentioned aspects of the greatest personality ever born on this earth.

Can a true follower of Islam forget the scene of Taif, where our great prophet was being beaten; though badly injured, he did not even utter a word of hatred for those who were throwing stones at him; on the contrary, he prayed for their well-being. It seems that your followers have forgotten important lessons from the life of our beloved prophet.

Please recall that, in the light of Islam, the killer of prophet’s uncle, Hazrat Hamza, was forgiven by the prophet.

Please recall that Ubai bin Salool kept on torturing prophet all through his life, but Prophet led the proceedings at his funeral service.

Your organization claims to follow sufis (saints). Please enlighten us if that is the way shown to us by the likes of Moinuddin Chishti, Hazrat Nizamuddin Auliya, Data Saheb, Baba Fareed.

I am pained that those claiming to be Muslim are responsible for, and have rejoiced, the heinous murder, whereas the true followers of Islam ought to condemn this brutal killing. We demand that you apologize to the family members of late Salman Taseer on behalf of your organization. In order not to tarnish the image of Islam, Prophet and Sufis, we request you to renounce the politics of murder and mayhem in their name.

I'm not afraid of these whiny Mullahs... According to Muslim beliefs, deaths are predetermined. These Mullahs call secularists, blasphemers with the same tongue that called Quaid-e-Azam, Kafir-e-Azam. There's a lot more that needs to be done.

Sitaron se agay jahan aur bhi hain, abhi ishq k imtihan aur bhi hain
Tahi zindagi se nahin ye fazayen yahan, saikaron karawan aur bhi hain
Agar kho gaya ek nasheman to kya ghum, maqamat-e-ah-o-fugan aur bhi hain
Gaye din k tanha tha main anjuman mein, yahan ab mere razadan aur bhi hain
-- Allama Iqbal

I see 99% signatories in this open letter are from INDIA.

Just a small question have these Indians ever written any such letter with regard to killing of thousands of Indian Muslims by hindu fanatics in Gujrat ?


2. Secondly what Ilayas Qadri has done for which he should apologise ?

3. Though content of the letter we all agree as Last Prophet of Allah, Muhammad (PBUH) had forgiven worst of the enemies despite they used to insult the prophet and throw dirt on him and many other such acts.

Good to know.
But i think average pakistani is afraid of them.
Media persons are cautious and use well calculated words.
Imran Khans interview was another tricky one.
To keep themselves on safe side while having a talk over topic, both host and Imran kept on repeating greatness of Prophet Muhammad. So that they make sure in no way they even came close to allegation of Blasphemy even by discussion on topic..

I would say media and most of right minded people haven't expressed their view on ST murder publicly with freedom of expression because of fear from Mullah brigade.

See Asim Sir,
Jana Mam just proved me right.
Average pakistani is even afraid to put name in, with their background info.
Thats why she said 99% indians in list.

I know here are some gutsy people and would come and give in their name.
But this forum doesn't represent daily common pakistani TOTALLY.

Afsos ki baat hai na, they have more balls than us to put their names to the cause.

It's an open letter, hopefully it will get more names.

Well I personally don't support Mumtaz and what he did. But may what all these Abdullah's are doing in Baigani shadi???

They dont have balls to speak for plight of Muslims in their own country. They are just playing ball with us here.


This is hypocrisy. everyone is trying to wash their hands in flowing ganga because its Pakistan.

i would appreciate them only if they show same balls in their own case.

But this forum doesn't represent daily common pakistani TOTALLY.

A politically motivated letter from people who lacks courage to speak and write one such letter with regard to massacre of Indian Muslims by Hindu extremists in Gujrat.


Secondly its none of your business whether we should include our name in a list which is composed of people who can not speak for their own rights in India, or not.

We shouldn't pressure anyone into it, it IS risky business, jungli qatilon ki kami nahi hai Pakistan main. Jiss main himmat hai woh kadam bharaye, jo nahi karsakte, duaon main yaad rakhain, bohot hai.

[Abu Basit]

the example of munafiq ubai is always quoted in the wrong context. yes Prophet Muhammad Saw' prayed his funeral, after this the following Verse was revealed. So to quote the example of Ubai's funeral for any incident after the revelation is totally irrelevant.

"And never (O Muhammad) pray (funeral prayer) for any of them (i.e. hypocrites) that dies." (9. 84)

Secondly, Hazrat Umar ra' and Ubai's own son were ready to kill the munafiq but Prophet Muhammad saw' didn't allowed them out of some reasons, the reason is explained in the Hadith below.

Volume 006, Book 060, Hadith Number 428.

Narated By Jabir bin 'Abdullah : We were in a Ghazwa (Sufyan once said, in an army) and a man from the emigrants kicked an Ansari man (on the buttocks with his foot). The Ansari man said, "O the Ansar! (Help!)" and the emigrant said. "O the emigrants! (Help!) Allah's Apostle heard that and said, "What is this call for, which is characteristic of the period of ignorance?" They said, "O Allah's Apostle! A man from the emigrants kicked one of the Ansar (on the buttocks with his foot)." Allah's Apostle said, "Leave it (that call) as is a detestable thing." 'Abdullah bin Ubai heard that and said, 'Have the (the emigrants) done so? By Allah, if we return Medina, surely, the more honourable will expel there-from the meaner." When this statement reached the Prophet. 'Umar got up an, said, "O Allah's Apostle! Let me chop off the head of this hypocrite ('Abdullah bin Ubai)!" The Prophet said "Leave him, lest the people say that Muhammad kills his companions." The Ansar were then more in number than the emigrants when the latter came to Medina, but later on the emigrant increased.
