Islam never teaches its followers discrimination in any form.These so called Muslims who claimed to be a true followers never act upon what our beloved Prophet(saw) has taught us.
ReplyDeleteIslam teaches us to respect all religions and faiths, but these Mullahs are spreading words of discrimination and hate since many many years.
ReplyDeleteDeep inside they also knows what is right but they dare to admit it. May God leads them to right path aameen.
Blasphemy laws that Pakistani people practise are totally unfair and wrong. They need to be changed. These "blasphemy laws" killed Salman Taseer. These unfair laws killed many other people of different faiths. Does Islam says to kill ? Absolutely not. Islam is a peaceful religion and promote harmony among people. It does not promote hate.
