Can we call the rampaging mobs and the negligent policemen, who allowed the Ahmadiyah people to be terrorized, real Muslims?

Do they know the contents of the Koran and do they arrange their lives in order with its content? Do they know that Surah As-Syuara 183 says, 'And defraud not people by reducing their things, nor do evil, making corruption and mischief in the land.'

Your comments:


Dressing up for prayer, appearing publicly to pray X times a day, giving speeches and sermons, does not make anyone a better human being.

That is almost completely window-dressing; the more conspicuous the better.

Backwardness, corruption, repression, ignorance, nepotism, criminality, lack of hygiene, hunger, disease, pollution, slavery, tutelage, patronage and feudalism are all hallmarks of a nation and thinking gone completely off the rails for hundreds of years.
