MUSLIMS UNITED

[The Holy Quran, 5:32]

BBC NEWS | England | London | Muslims in anti-terror campaign

British Muslims are leading a new campaign condemning the recent attempted car bomb attacks in London and Glasgow. The campaign, titled "Not in Our Name", will be launched across the UK with adverts in newspapers.
It emphasises "the Muslim community's rejection of any attempts to link any such criminal attacks to the teachings of Islam", organisers said.
Muslims from various professions have backed the campaign, including doctors.

Every time there is some atrocity of this type, the Muslim community have repeatedly said 'not in my name', it's brilliant that it's getting the message home now.

Muslim's I know are as appalled as anyone else about the bombs and they are doubly appalled because they feel like they're getting the blame for it.

To apportion blame on a whole community may be wrong, but it is a coping mechanism...it allows people to feel like they have some control.

And have any of these bombers been anything other than muslims? OK...I don't mean to be offensive to anyone....I am just asking a question.

And if the Muslim community really wants to be taken seriously on a 'Not in my name' campaign, then they have to stop the extremist muslim clerics from poisoning the young minds of the boys of their communities. I was always led to believe that Islam was a peaceful religion.

thats true but not very simple,was listening to an interview with an EX- Radical the other night, he was recruited at 15 yrs of age very slowly by people who befriended him leaving the mosque, inviting him to their homes, giving him nice meals etc, then slowley introducing him to parts of the koran that the moderate imams dont focus on,ie, beheadings etc etc,so if they aint learning it from the clerics at the mosque,(some do but very few) how do you stop it? very difficult i think,but somehow we have too.:(

Cashy, that is what I am saying.....it is down to the Muslim community to stick together and root out these people. Not invite them to their homes, not give them good food and hospitality......but question them about their malicious beliefs......stop their young boys from having their minds poisoned with what is hatred, pure and simple.
If the Muslim community cannot do this....or worse still won't do this, then they cannot complain when people think that all terrorists are islamic.
You can only change how people think of you by actively doing something to change these ideas.

Re: Whoever kills an innocent soul.. it is as if he killed the whole of mankind...
 

I appreciate that many many muslims are peaceful and uphold the peaceful doctrines of their religion, but the minority are having an adverse effect on the lives of the majority....and while they allow this to continue then a campaign...no matter how worthy, will do nothing.

About time.

I do think it would be a very good idea for Muslims to make more of a public stand against the acts which are puportedly being carried out in the name of Allah.


Perhaps if as many people took to the streets, as they did to protest against the war in Iraq, it would be a fantastic start.
