Posted at 6:39pm on Feb. 25, 2008 Muslim Scholars Denounce Terrorism
Where's The Outrage?
By California Yankee
Seems Muslim scholars are unhappy that terrorism is equated with Islam:
Opening the conclave the head of the Deoband school, Maulana Marghoobur Rahman, described terrorism as a thoughtless act which is against the teachings of Islam.He said that the killing of innocent people of any religion was prohibited by the Koran, the Muslim Holy Book.
Many participants said they want to change popular perceptions in which, they say, terrorism is being equated with Islam.
Others said that while Muslims should not be harassed because of anti-terrorism operations, the community also needed to be more introspective.
Perhaps if the "scholars" had expressed a little outage and condemnation when terrorist acts are committed, there wouldn't be such a perception.
