My Christian brothers, today I am ashamed of being a Muslim. The death of 81 Christians in a Peshawar church on Sunday shows how criminal we are. Please do not forgive me for being silent while other Pakistanis are killed by mad mullahs. Please condemn me.
Ehtisham Shami: Very Sad.
Lidia Berger: Finally, the truth.
Rizwan Elahi: Our feelings too.
Mary Shabbiha Woodward: I can't share this. We have too many rabid Islamophobes in this country.
Additionally, I cannot blame my religion on the Goldsteins and settlers, and ITFs, nor can I blame Christianity on Mussolini, Franco, and Hitler.
Asad Hassan: Agree.
Rehman Zia: God knows what may happen tomorrow elsewhere beyond the border of Pakistan.
Zarif Khan: What to say? I have no words.
Aadam Zaad: What else I could do except copying and pasting this confession, have no words...
Kashif Jamil: Are we going to forget this one too?
Aadam Zaad: yes, we have already done so with 89 corpses of Hazaras, left on a road in Quetta. Helen Rose Goodway: Terrible, and your response so moving.
Imran Bukhari: You should be ashamed of being an American because this attack is done by Americans. The same way they killed 1,700,000 innocent civilians in Iraq.
Mohammed Khan: Those Christians were human beings and patriotic Pakistanis. Killing in the name of religion is an unpardonable crime both here and hereafter. No one can go to paradise by killing any human being belonging to any race, colour or religion. Now it is the duty of every Pakistani to strongly condemn this act of barbarism. God may give patience and courage to the mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons and every family member and friend of the persons who were killed.
Mohammed Khan: Mr Bukhari, at the outset this criminal act needs strong condemnation. Whoever has done this crime or resorts to such criminal act needs strong punishment. Blame for the sake of blame leads to degeneration of the society.
Omais Syed: Who said this act was done by Muslims? No Muslim can do such a thing. And we must not be ashamed of ourselves. We should figure out the wrong people among us who do such acts. Our Prophet (PBUH) allowed non-Muslims to go their churches and other places of worship and freely perform their religious duties.
Imran Bukhari: Hindus and Israelis are in Pakistan in disguise of Taliban, they did that.
Mohammed Khan: Mr Syed, I agree with you. No individual or any group as a whole has the right to kill any human being holding any religious belief. That is against the injections of all religions. And Islam is the religion of peace. If my neighbour is a Christian or a believer of any other religion then is it incumbent upon me to protect him.
Seeme Gull Khan Hasan: We are one with you. We are Brothers of the Book. We pray that God give comfort and courage to you to bear this loss.
Bushra Ahmed: Very sad.
Johnny Bgood: This is a great tragedy and my heart goes to the families who lost their loved ones in this barbaric attack. At the same time I would like to ask you, how come you never made such a strong statement in the past when so many innocent people got killed in attacks like this? Your statement sounds so political. It is almost looks like you are trying to impress your non-Muslim friends. Just a thought. May God protect entire humanity from evil doers.
Ch. Umar: Of course. But who are the people behind such attacks? Indian agents, may be? Indian agencies? We need to stay together and fight back.
Sheila Parvyn Mahmud: Horrible, horrible crime. No justification for it at all.
Sher Mohammad: Mr Johnny Bgood, with God "Oppression is more awesome than killing." Chapter 2, verse 217. We are deeply involved with this oppression and it is now our combined tragedy and we must share its fallouts together. The Holy Qur'an vouchsafes Jesus Christ and his mother as most exalted beings in the sight of God and all Muslim believers. It bleeds our heart when such heinous crimes hit innocent people. In our view, we have strayed from the righteous path of God and this is a warning to us all.
Syed Faiz Ahmad: I too share these feelings.
Musharaf Khan: My heart goes to all those hearts that are bleeding due to the loss of their loved ones in Peshawar.
Yusuf Rahat: Let us not blame ourselves. These barbarians do not belong to any religion or sect. They are just barbarians. All religions preach the same thing, love of humanity. If these people kill their fellow human beings, they cannot belong to any religion, they are beasts.
Imran Bukhari: You are loyal to a cause. You are anti-Muslim. This was a good chance for you to blame Muslims.
Tahira Mussarat Hussain: Sad, very sad indeed.
Anwar Hussain: No arguments, simply feel guilty and embarrassed.
Imran Bukhari: Black Water is doing terrorist activities in Pakistan.
Iftikhar Ifti: Very sad day for Pakistan.
Zaman Khan: We must show solidarity with Pakistani Christians.
Munaeem Mallick: Why should we be ashamed for the criminal acts of a few beasts? We are struggling to eliminate these fanatics from our society.
Faqir Naqvi: I agree with you.
Asif Ali: Kis ki nazar lag gai ha hamaray Pakistan ko? Allah khair karay.
Valerie Siddiq: My heart goes out to all the deceased and the poor families. May God grant us tolerance for all race and religions.
Mohammed S Khan: Whatever is written here, it is written with honesty. If such things are happening in Pakistan then who is responsible to take action and prevent the citizens from such mass killings? In my view, the Pakistani government and we as Muslim Pakistanis share the blame. As a Muslim I am also ashamed of myself and I cannot stand in any forum and talk about my religion as and the Pakistani society.
Syed Fayyaz Hassan: Thank you for articulating what we all had in our minds. Those who kill innocent children, women and people who were worshipping God are not human let alone Muslims.
Sardar Mehmood Khan Sudozai: Ya sb Muslim huna pa sharminda hain!
Laeeq Ahmed: This mentality and this group does not represent Pakistan or Islam. It is a mental sickness. No normal person kills innocent people.

Though i'm ashamed but this enlighted me more about human rights being memeber of muslim dominated society. It preaches me a lesson that first we are all humans and then muslims and chiristians and others !
Islam too teaches humanity first but certain elements of our society takes it differently and this is our fault not of islam . Prophet Muhammad practically proved it while in his life and wordings but if we are doing it in the name of islam , we r wrong : may be there are other elements who have vested interests and doing it in the islam's name.

The feeling is mutual Iqbal. I am ashamed to be a Muslim too. There is no one in Pakistan who calls these people savage animals (because this is exactly what they are). I have never seen a Mullah in Pakistan teaching us to respect other religions. They are all KAFIRS and we will be only ones going to heaven. If these are the teachings of Islam (which I don't believe they are), I do not want to be a Muslim.

Yes, I am truely ashamed. I feel their pain. But first all of us are pakistanis. Media says blasts in Church and Christians died. I say Pakistanis died.
Now people say, no need for peace talks with Taliban. Taliban say they are not involved in these attacks.
The issue now arises in my mind that was this an.attempt to sabotage the peace talks. Who is behind all this. Other countries.???...
This should be properly investigated.
I am not pro-taliban but proper JUSTICE should be provided to the victims of Peshawarblasts.

Even people who are aethists have right to live and even they have conscience. Let us fisrt have conscience, conscience was there before Islam came and needs no certification. Let us be first human, just human and then let us think about God.

I am not ashamed to be a Muslim. A Muslim is one who says "I am a Muslim and behaves like a true Muslim". Only God knows who is a true Muslim and any Mullah has no say or authority in this matter if he is a true Muslim. A true Muslim should know that you cannot hide anything from God even you have a foot long beard! A true Muslim is one who turns to his creator for help and guidance and is always mindful of his duty not to hurt anyone, a Muslim or not a muslim. Those mullas who had called Pakistan, at its inception, as Pleadistan, are beginning to claim now rightfully perhaps that they made pleadisstan out of Pakistan!
All humans are Allah's creation and must be loved and respected and all true Muslims are obligated to fulfill the rights of all human beings, Muslims or not Muslims. Allah bless Pakistan and all its citizens to love and respect one another, amen.

I am not ashamed of being a Muslim. I believe in that the peace and harmony part of Islam, which forms the bulk of the message of Islam, is valid for all times to come, while the sections relating to violence were relevant only within a certain context when Islam was in its infancy and when its survival was at stake. Those conditions do not exist now, and will never exist in the future.
I also believe that Allah is the ultimate logic, the ultimate sense, and therefore, exercise of common sense is the greatest worship.

Iqbal Bhai: I always love your writings. I feel very sad to see blaming game on Islam (as a religion). Is it fair? I think responsibility must rest firstly on those who teach distorted and non-tolerant versions of Islam and secondly to those who are allowing these sorts of education to happen in the society. Who are the teachers? The attack in Peshawar was conducted by two suicide bombers and we know they are the products of some fundamentalist *madrasas*. One might wonder what sorts of training can produce somebody who is willing to give his/her life for some idealism (no matter how good or evil that idea might be). In a famous psychological experiment 10 participants were asked to wear glasses for one month which show the world upside down. During first week all the participants faced immense difficulties in doing things but they recovered gradually and in the fourth week everything became completely normal to them--they could walk, read, write, eat and drive with their upside down world view. At the end of the experiment, when those special glasses were taken away from them; they faced problems to readjust themselves with the normal world [Source: Self Matter by Dr Phillip C. McGraw]. This is also what happens to suicide bombers, their brains are washed, indoctrinated and reoriented (through intense repetition and induction of ideas) in such a way and to such an extent that the normal world looks abnormal to them and as a result they feel no guilt to strike against such a world

If you do, Anwar Iqbal, feel ashamed of being muslim after that incident, then you acknowledge the facts that those who committed that sin were muslims. I personally do not regard them as humans, let alone as muslims. So I do not think I should be ashamed as a muslim, of acts done by non-muslims.
I can be ashamed of other things though. I can be ashamed, as Pakistani, to see how my government handles this issue, how minorities generally speaking are treated in Pakistan. But I again do not think there is a reason for muslims to be ashamed.

Another misleading & devisive article published by secular Dawn News.
First of all, The killing of innocent christians is not the result of Islamic teachings. Infact,
Mohammad (SAW) said "Whoever hurts a dhimmi (non-muslim citizen of Islamic State or khilafah) hurted me."
And offcource its not islam that teaches to bomb the mosques and madressas.
Don't you recalls the Raymond Davis fiasco and his relations with such rogue elements that are going amok in Pakistan.
or your newspaper is also part of the US lead "Creative Chaos" that is destablising pakistan in every possible way.
If that's not the case, please google RAND corporation article published in early 2007:

According to the BBC Urdu Broadcast there were announcements in the local mosques asking people to extend all possible help to the affected people and their families.

Whether one is ashamed or not depends on how thick a skin one has, and how convinced one is about being always right.

Just being born into a particular religion should not become ones to defend. Any religion is a man made thing for political and economic competition between each other. Think about it.
Spirituality, rather than religion should be practiced in private without judging others. Good muslim bad muslim debate is a waste of time and has done no good but further divided humanity.
Remember, we are all descendants of apes that came out of Africa. Scientific fact. Some of us may become highly spiritual and philosophical about life and have visions of life after death, but that cannot be preached to all as fact.
With all the research and scientific proofs about the universe and its origins, how can one still hold on to stories and myths written in the name of religion, just three or four thousand years ago?
I have decided to teach my children to be not too attached to being muslim just because they are born in this religion. Rather they should learn to absorb good practices from wherever they choose. Teach them not to judge others's religion or allow others to judge your own spirituality.

Muslim terrorists took hostage of Christians in a whole township in Philippines and several killed. Pakistani Taliban suicide bombers attacked worshippers on Sunday Mass in a Peshawar Church. Al Shabab terrorists attacked a shopping mall in Kenyan capital Nairobi and killed innocent shoppers by separating non-Muslims from Muslims.
These were news head-lines for a week now. These carnage took place besides the usual reckless sectarian killings of fellow Muslims in Iraq, Pakistan, Yemen, Lebenon and Syria. I think the time has come for an introspection within the Ummah to find out what went wrong in the Islamic faith. What is the reason for this gross intolerance among the believers? Why can't we live side by side with people who differ with us in faith, culture and language? Is it the fault of interpretation or due to the indoctrination? Can we blame Mullah Omar or Qardawi or Sawahiri when they are preaching and endorsing all these violent acts? I don't think they are wrong as they are learned scholars of the religion. Who ever preaching otherwise are having some axe to grind...

It is evidently true that when some Muslims attacked the church and killed 81 Christians, it was religion on their minds. You may call that Muslim fanaticism . . or whatever, but the Pakistani government should be ashamed of not being able to protect its citizens. That's where the shame, or lack of it, lies.

Thank you, Anwar Iqbal Bhai. Thank you for articulating your position so eloquently. Thanks for giving the silent majority the words that have long eluded them - because being 'ashamed' as a Muslim at this hour should be the first step in the defense of Islam. If Muslims had been ashamed of what has been done for long to non-Muslims in the name of your religion, Muslims would taken steps to defend their religion earlier. It is time to feel the emotion of 'shame', so that you can feel the emotion of 'pride' in 'owning' your religion. You can not feel the pride of your religion merely with the emotion of fear - i.e. the fear of the more violent among the Muslims today.
Anwar Iqbal Bhai - In my opinion, YOU are the first among Muslims - BECAUSE YOU ARE ASHAMED OF BEING A MUSLIM TODAY. Let the others join you in winning back your religion from the terrorists. This religion belongs to you!

There are clear punishments provided in law for such acts that hurt innocents,and those should be applied by the state without equivocation. What I do apologise for is that we who can have not facilitated those who cannot read to understand the compassion which is the essence of Islam, mainly because we ourselves have chosen to remain ignorant of our religion. We study till 3 a.m every day to do well in a B.A. exam, but do not devote 5 minutes a day to a serious study of Islam, to understand what it says to us personally.

But this is great loss for all and we should Stand firm as a Muslim and as a Pakistani.
By telling people that you are ashamed of being Pakistani you are showing word that all the Pakistani have mentally of TTP and Taliban.

Ashamed to be a Muslim- what utter nonsense. In my opinion that in itself is the problem. It tells you that Muslims themselves don't understand what being a Muslim means. I on the other hand on a personal level feel privileged to be born in a Muslim family that tried to teach me the true essence of the religion we follow. No where in the teachings did bombing non-Muslim places of worship figure or killing innocent people, or hatred for those who did not necessarily subscribe to your faith come in. I was sent to an English school, spent 4 years in missionary institutes and counted and continue to count many Christians and people of other faiths (and indeed Muslim sects) as my best friends. Islam for me was always a religion of love and tolerance and since this recent act was totally against the teachings of Islam why be ashamed of being Muslim?

Did you ever apologize to them? or perhaps your own countrymen who have been globally stereotyped as terrorists while themselves been victims of terrorism? The so called Mullahs that you are blaming, maybe those guys are just posers and have nothing to do with Islam. Did you put enough thought on that?
I dont see any other religion protesting against the Muslim genocide all across globe. When the Gujrat incident happened, I did not see our Hindu community stand up and denounce their religion.

Almost every month or so there are incidents of mass shootings and senseless killings all over the US but we don't hear Americans coming online to proclaim they feel ashamed to be Americans because of the acts of some of their own. Did Norwegians go online claiming to be ashamed of being Norwegians or Christians after one of their own "White Knight" went on a senseless killing spree?

Well pointed out bro. These Hindu Indian champions of peace not only kill others but their own as well but before that they rape them in buses and under construction buildings. Their own history is full of killing and burning alive thousands of Muslims, Sikhs, Christians and Tamils. And those sorry for being Muslims should check and confirm their faith and how much faith they have in Allah, if at all.

2. Do you support Blasphemy Laws?
3. Do you think Article 41(2) and 91(3) of the Pakistan Constitution are wrong?
4. Do you think Salman Taseer was right?
5. Are you aware that TTP supported PTI and PMLN in the elections?

For addition info, please read what mufti Muneebur Rehman and other so-called Ulema said at the recent Khatme-Nabuwwat conference about "clearing out a particular minority from Pakistan".

They are heroes for whom? For the converted - Pakistanis and Afghans and Indian muslims. Where is the wealth plundered by Ghori and Ghazni from glorious India of those times? Wasted down the drains! Wrath of the natives! What is the meaning of 'Hindukush?' Islam spread by sword alone in the subcontinent.

It is a collective shame of entire nation the reason that we muslim feel bad is that Pakistan outwardly is so steeped in "religion" and some way it is sadness to see a perfect religion maligned by its own followers

Why is this tragedy different then the carnage brought about by Mogul Emperors? The only difference is that they were using soldiers to do the job and now they use bombs. Bottom line is both situations are barbaric.
