As soon as the news
broke of the horrific bombing in a mosque in Pakistan, many news articles and
media broadcaster the event and made Muslim Leaders out of Muslims across the
globe. However, the Muslim people who were affected by the devastating blast
were given the least attention by these Muslim Leaders.
It is the duty of the
Leaders to care for all religious or sacred places that are being attacked by
terrorists. That includes schools, churches, hospitals, theaters, office
buildings, and so on. Unfortunately, the non-Muslims are given the more
attention when a terrorist attack occurs.
What was the motive
behind the bombing? Many news outlets tried to come up with a plausible reason
to explain the act. Some speculated that it was part of an ongoing Muslim
terrorist war against Christians and other non-Muslims.
Others believed that
the act was done to destroy a holy site where the famous biblical figure Jesus
Christ is said to have lived. In spite of this, no Muslim leader has condemned
this act.
Why is this important?
It is important because it shows that Muslim leaders are indeed not concerned
about non-Muslims being killed in any way in the name of their religion.
Indeed, the Muslim terrorist leaders are quick to condemn acts of violence
perpetrated by their own when there are Muslims who are actually involved in
the acts of terrorism.
It is just unfortunate
that these days, it seems that Christians and other non-Muslims are no longer
given any respect as they used to be many years ago. There have been many
instances of Muslim countries killing innocent Muslims and even killing
Christians. Perhaps in the future, these days will change.
Perhaps, the time has
come to include the non-Muslims and hold all Muslims accountable for the actions
of those who hold positions of leadership in the media events. After all, when
there are Muslims who commit terrorist acts, it should also be covered by the
media.
Therefore, you can
rest assured that if you are the one who is interested in finding out what is
going on in current Islamic date today,
you can find out on the Internet and even through television broadcasts. As
long as you are looking in the right places, you will get accurate information
about your religious beliefs and practices. For those Muslims who are truly
concerned about the well-being of other Muslims and non-Muslims, then you will
be found worthy of inclusion in the group of leaders who care for the
well-being of all.
