The Islam Defenders Front (FPI) says it is planning to organize a mass prayer after the killing of wanted terrorist and al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden by US troops over the weekend.

In a text message sent to tempointeraktif.com on Monday night, the organization said it wanted to pray for Bin Laden.

The event, the message says, would be held at the FPI headquarters in Petamburan, Central Jakarta, on Tuesday from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.

The message, however, did not provide further information as to who else had been invited to the event.

Bin Laden was found dead after a massive blitzkrieg by a group of US Navy Seals on Sunday night in the upmarket area of Abbottabad in Pakistan. US officials said Bin Laden’s remains had been quickly buried at sea after being treated in an Islamic way.

Your comments:

Isn’t this a provocation?

How can such an organization be allowed to publicly announce a “prayer meeting” for a top terrorist leader?

I am also praying to the US government or any other entity with the capacity to manipulate the use of violence that those who attend this “prayer” will follow Osama to wherever he is.

There is no rejoicing from me in this man’s death.

I only wish he could have come to know the Savior of this world and to have true peace in his heart.

The mass murderer of innocent people got what he deserved. Muslims who pray for him are complicit in his macabre contribution to the festival of death.

Don’t waste your time with this coward. Justice has come to him.
