Perspective: Killing is never the answer | Haseeb Sheikh


Terrorism has no place in any religion, Islam being no different. Islam at the very core means peace and teaches again and again that killing is inhumane and not allowed and has major consequences.

A horrific tragedy occurred in Brussels — extremists, identified to be affiliated with ISIS, killed over 30 people and injured hundreds of others. As a young Ahmadi Muslim, I condemn this barbaric attack and offer my condolences to all the people affected in this senseless act.

Terrorism has no place in any religion, Islam being no different. Islam at the very core means peace and teaches again and again that killing is inhumane and not allowed and has major consequences.

The killing of the innocent, and killing period, should never be the answer. As a young Muslim growing up in this society, it’s terrifying to see how the name of Islam is being so extremely distorted and obfuscated to where all people are getting the wrong impressions because of the acts of a handful of misguided people.

Haseeb Sheikh, Allen
