Guys,
Even though i visit this forum regulalry, unfortunately, due to my hectic schedule I dont usually get the chance to contribute much on this forum now a days. However, reading some of the comments on this thread so far, i felt i had to write something on this occasion.
First and foremost, i would like to request everyone to please not to disrepect anyone who has died - whether that is a so-called terrorist or a so-calld corrupt politician or a civilian or even your enemy! This request is especially to my fellow pakistanis and muslims, as we should rememebr we have been bought up better than this!
I understand this person is a famous politician and people have strong personal opinions about him, especially because of his comments about the blasphemy law i presume. This is apparent from people posting so many comments against him despite the moderators repeteadely threatening to ban anyone who disrespects him. I'm sure there will be many more who want to post but are refraining incase they get banned! Obviously this is a sensitive issue but please refrain from making any negative comments against him as he has passed away now and Allah will be the best judge of him, just like for all of us.
Having said this, i would also request everyone else not to inflame this topic further please. I have read many comments from senior members bringing in Mullahs, and blaming religion etc, which i dont think helps the situation at all! Also, please dont blame everything on Mullahs. A
REAL mullah would not order killings on innocent people. So please dont refer to illeterate people calling themselves Mullah as Mullah! This is unfair and an insult to the REAL scholars (albeit afew) that we have!
From the time i have been here, i have never seen so many people get banned because of someones death as much as on this thread! I would request the Mods to please treat everyone who inflames (whether in favour of or against) this topic equally...as majority of people who have been banned are those who were against salman taseer.
I think equal punishment needs to be made to people who are against Salam Taseer by trying to justify his death...or if they are in favour of him by bringing in religion or mullahs etc! I think both sides are flaming and are equally wrong.
It just saddens me so many pakistanis are arguing on such issues. If we as a nation can not stick together then what hope do we have for future...
May Allah point us all in the right direction!
P.s. apologies if i have offended anyone as that was not my intention. I just want everyone to be calm and not let their emotions get better of them.
