Terrorists have no religion, as all religions promote peace. Terrorists only try to strike fear in people’s hearts and divide them.

I am an imam (missionary) of Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in Alberta. I follow the Holy Qur’an in letter and spirit, and categorically condemn the attacks in Paris. The Holy Qur’an states: “whoever killed an innocent person, it shall be as if he had killed all mankind” (3:111). Therefore, acts of terrorism cannot be justified under the name of Islam in any way.
My deepest condolences and sympathies to the French nation. I pray that God may grant patience to all those who suffered in any way through these attacks.
The actions of ISIL are completely contrary to the teachings of Islam. Terrorists have no religion, as all religions promote peace. Terrorists only try to strike fear in people’s hearts and divide them. But humanity must not play into their hands. We need to remain united to defeat extremism. I pray the perpetrators are swiftly brought to justice.
Tariq Azeem, Lloydminster
