“Whoso slayeth a believer of set purpose, his reward is Hell for ever. Allah is wroth against him and He hath cursed him and prepar…ed for him an awful doom.” (An-Nisa’: 93)

The only reason why people say it’s an Islamic Act, is because they want to make themselves believe it is. It’s stupid Mullah’s who read and each the Qura’an, not even knowing what they are saying (translation) and not even pronouncing it properlly.

It was Hassib’s father that taught him Honour killings are okay according to Islam, and that he needs to bring back the lost honour. And it was Hassib’s mistake for not researching this himself, and if he had thought before he acted, no doubt would he find that any murder (especially of a Muslim) is 100% haram (a sin).

Allah (swa) has a special punishment for those people.

Since I’m already here defending Islam,
I would just like to say Islam does not allow beating of a wife, sister, mother etc.
If a husband is upset with his wife, there is a procedure he needs to follow.

(a) admonition and advice, by explaining the unlawfulness of rebellion, its harmful effect on married life, and by listening to her viewpoint on the matter;
(b) if admonition is ineffectual, he keeps from her by not sleeping in bed with her, by which both learn the degree to which they need each other;
(c) if keeping from her is ineffectual, it is permissible for him to hit her if he believes that hitting her will bring her back to the right path, though if he does not think so, it is not permissible. His hitting her may not be in a way that injures her, meaning he may not (bruise her), break bones, wound her, or cause blood to flow.
(d) if the disagreement does not end after all this, each partner chooses an arbitrator to solve the dispute by settlement, or divorce.

Think of how lightly you would have to hit a women, so that you do not bruise her, or put marks on her skin.
This means you can tap her, and not even repeatidly.

I hope this brights a little more light to true Islam.
Islam means peace.
This is like the excuse that people use the term Jihad to kill, when really Jihad is a religious struggle with yourself.

I completely understand why people have the wrong notion of Islam. But it is not fair to be judged on uneducated people. These are the actions of people who were taught wrong, by people who don’t know what they are talking about. Yes, I am Afghan, and yes sometimes the way some Afghan’s think upset me, if they only educated themselves with the right resources, our country and religion would have so much more respect.

RIP Khatera Jaan and Feroz Jaan. You are missed, and it’s a great tragedy that the world is now without you.
Hassib, you may be in prison now, but you still have to face Allah.

Actually, Allah doesn’t allow eunuchs into Paradise, so maybe the threat of castration just before their (natural?) death would make a better deterrent for so-called honour killers.

Oh, and yes I am a vegetarian.

I have studied religion for 7 years now, I must say, if you people have actually read about the religions Islam, then you will know it’s a peaceful religion just as any other.

I’ve been following these wars for 15 years, I have traveled to Islamic countries as well, watched their news along with the Canadian, American, and European. Each has different stories and news.

If Islam is a hateful religion, then so much be Christianity? The American, European soldiers raping children, taking advantage of their power is OK? Before you say such hateful things of a religion, please know what you’re talking about.
