The religion an individual believes in and practices should be a personal matter. No one has any right to impose his religious beliefs and perceptions on how it is to be practiced on others. My Dad who was a widely traveled man used to say 50 years ago that true Islam is practiced in what is now Bangladesh. Yet Pakistanis did consider the majority of their people living in the then East Pakistan as true Muslims just because they did not spread Urdu. So religion has always been exploited by Pakistanis for political gains and to grab properties of non-Muslims even of so called ones like the Ahmadiya sects. Now, Pakistani suicide bombers and their Afgan brethren are wantonly killing innocent people in the streets, markets and even Mosques all in the name of Islam!

Some people make there own religion weak by pleading for it's greatness. Humanity is the only religion. It may come in any religious form and name. Human religion has no borders. This is the original form of any religion. If the followers indulge in rituals only, the essence of any religion will be vanished and then religions will become breeding centres of terrorists, communalists and fundamentalists.

The Kaaba is to Islam as Holy Sepulcher is to Christianity. The Vatican is like the Hizjaz. In any case pagan based cults like Christianity and Hinduism cannot be accommodated there. Monotheist Judaism probably could, but somewhere else in Arabia.

Hello Dr. Zahoor,
What more image of Pakistan you want to distort. It is already tarnished to a point that any terrorist activity happens in the word, there is the name of Pakistan in the media. Wake up. It is not the Islam we are practicing. We are going back to pre Muhammdan(PBUH) era. Where in the Muslims history, corruption is allowed, drugs are funneled under the government nose, pilgrims are robed. What country you are living in.

The main article and all comments in favor are absolutely baseless, absurd and assumed.
I am 72, a Pakistani Muslim, never seen throughout my life a minority-person even slapped on the basis of his / her faith.
Twisting of actual causes always adopted to create disharmony in the society!!!

The Muslim countries embraced this ideology by force, and its only an alternative FORCE that can pull them out of this mess. Wait for the Sign of God from Heaven Above.
