Salman Rushdie attack was unjustifiable, says Pakistan’s Imran Khan

. .
Attack on Salman was stupid, he was forgotten and would die as nobody, History would not remember scums like him, but if he died his name would be honored in history for decades, when will Muslim stop making stupid mistakes ? No one has authority in Islam to be Judge Jury and executioner, and when will we Muslims learn that Forgiveness is better than violence, have we not learn anything from Rasool Allah ?
 
. . .
This has nothing to do with Western hegemony or kowtowing to the West.

What Imran Khan has done is proven, once again, that he is a man of principle and will not compromise on his principles even if there is a political cost or danger to his life.

He said what any sane, rational individual would say, that while we can disagree and condemn Salman Rushdies actions, there is absolutely no justification for the violent attack against him.

This applies to every case where an individual is accused of 'blasphemy' - condemn what you perceive as wrong, but do not take the law into your hands and use violence.


This is not an 'alternate point of view' - it is support and glorification of violence and terrorism against those with whose views you disagree.

There can be and will be NO tolerance for these kinds of views. I encourage the members of PDF to report all such posts on social media for glorification of hatred and violence.
yes.. if we condemn drones attack for being judge, jury and executioner at the same time.. then we must detest these type of attacks on person.

They will fire you even if you did it in your personal space or time and they get ro know about it, and you could do nothing, they will treat you like a criminal, even their judiciary will.
I was just giving you an example, you may well be attacked if you speak against holocaust in public.


You will also be punished physically and charged if you speak openly against the Queen in England.
What do you mean by speak openly against the Queen? A lot of people criticise the monarchy over here.
 
.
They have been occurring time and time again you can search.
They even fire Teachers in US questoning holocaust.
In what context would they be teaching Holocaust denial? The Holocaust is established historical fact so when would a teacher teach that it did not happen? What should happen to a teacher who taught slavery never happened? Perhaps that there was no British Empire?

These criminals promote murders.
They legitimatize murder of qadianis.
I am a simple Muslim believing in the Last Messenger and the Seal of the Prophets, but why Qadianis be killed? Let them have their belief! How their belief affects Islam? Is Islam that weak?
These ignorant religious bigots have become gods and are used by thug establishment for their nefarious planning.

Ok Criticise Queen in public gathering or write a book against her, call her some bad thing. Then inform me what happened.

That does not matter the, fact is they no one is allowed to even question the holocaust.
There are things out there that put doubt on holocaust.
You cannot equate Slavery with holocaust as holocaust is not a established historical fact, they just made it into a thing no one can question about.

Like I said it is a sensitive issue. There is no true freedom of speech or expression in the world.
Nothing justifies violence over words or statements

Very good points @AgNoStiC MuSliM kudos!
Nothing justifies violence over words even if its offensive
The worst punishment I support over it is financial

Heard way too many people particularly outside England call her all sorts of names online and no one cares

Arent you the same character that supported violent groups in Syria? Now you shed crocodile tears for an other violator of laws? You are the actual violent people who support savages and Satanists.

This is not an ordinary blasphemy case.

Only Qazi has the authority to pass a death sentence. There's absolutely no provision for extra judicial killing in Islam but fascists don't get that. Are you a TLP fascist?

Imran Khan has probably learned a lot from his first term as President.

Its about giving different camps what they want to hear, in a balanced way. Its a realpolitik approach that is proven to yield long term benefit. Lie low and work for your countries betterment. If it soothes someone to think less of you because you ape, let them do it, as it wont harm a person or a nation with real self-defined goals. A long term goal oriented entity dosent get tangled up in less relevant smaller details. This is exactly how China made it.

Hold back the big guns until its absolutely neccesary.

(1) Ok so you are no longer claiming someone would get charged with something for speaking openly against the Queen? What kind of speech are you claiming would get you locked up?

(2) You are all over the place are n't you? Your claims keep changing. First it's you can't teach it, then you'll get attacked, you can't question it to it never happened. A rather desperate and woeful attempt to justify violence. Ignorance, political or racism or a combination of all perhaps.

The blasphemy issue as well as the public role and sanctity of religion are toxic for Pakistani society.
