It is really disgusting to see the 200 + school children
abducted by the Boro Islamist group in Nigeria are still not released even
after 3 weeks. The Pope at Vatican has already indicated his concern, so also
some Western leaders including President Obama and just 2 days back Mrs. Obama
expressed her motherly sentiments and while condemning this incident pleaded
for the release of these innocent students.
Islam is a great religion of justice and compassion but those
Islamists who abducted the students in Nigeria are doing a great disservice to
the Islamic doctrine of justice and compassion by doing injustice to these
students and not showing compassion at this hour to them.
By abducting these students the Boro Islamist group is creating
a very bad image of Islam thereby giving an opportunity to the enemies of Islam
to create a distorted image of it. If
today the enemies of Islam are harping against Islam, it is only because of the
Boro type of Islamists who are creating a bad image of this great religion. The real enemies of Islam are not Jews as
Muslims believe but these Boro type of
Islamists who instead of brightening the image of Islam are blackening it by taking young students as hostage. Islam does not say to commit such
horrible acts in its name. Such acts are
forbidden in Islam and on top of it this Boro group is functioning in the name
of Islam. Shame on them for putting the genuine Muslims into a shame.
Abducting the students is one sin but on top of it threatening
to sell them to the terrorists is the worst sin. Are these students commodities
to sell them in the market of terrorists? Are these abductors heartless people?
Don’t they have children for them? Why
they don’t show compassion as indicated in Islam and release these students?
Even Prophet Mohammed showed compassion to the captured Jewish soldiers and
commanded to release them without doing any bodily harm to them.
It is surprising to note that there is not much campaign in
the Islamic world for the release of these students. It looks the top Muslim
leaders are silently watching this incident instead of condemning it and
demanding immediate release of these young girls. Where Muslim world remained
silent, Christian world under its Christian leaders made awakening by taking
concrete steps to fight for justice for these young students. After all Justice
is the central idea of Islam and ironically Christians are fighting for this
Justice even though the central idea of Christianity is Love.
