One small act of goodness can bring happiness. However several acts of violent terror add fuel to an already burning hell fire. I am referring to the most recent terror incident in Peshawar, Pakistan that resulted in the massacre of Christians while they worshipped at a church. I am an Ahmadi Muslim who follows the teachings of the Holy Quran brought by Muhammad (peace and blessings be on him) and revived by the Promised Messiah, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian.
The concept of freedom of religion does not exist in Pakistan. In the same country, in Lahore, members of my community were also the victims of a bloody carnage in our places of worship in May 2010 where 86 people were killed and 120 injured. Our master, Muhammad (pbuh) came to put a stop to senseless killings and today the ‘Muslims’ are failing us and mankind by not following the pristine teachings of Islam. Forget pristine teachings, not even basic human rights are protected.
We mourn for our Christian brothers and sisters who perished in the horrific tragedy and are reminded of our own mosque attacks. Ahmadi Muslims are a minority group persecuted in Pakistan, just as are Christians. The terrorists are not stopping, and neither should we give up against them, or negotiate with them. When injustice is served up, then Islam teaches us to eradicate it.

“…slay not the soul the slaying of which Allah has forbidden, save in accordance with the demands of justice”(Quran 6:152). If people are governed with justice, peace inevitably ensues. May God enable mankind to fight terrorism within the confines of justice.
