Re: Afghan woman beaten to death for allegedly burning Quran

Violence and hatred is blind, unless opposed and condemned, it will eventually engulf the perpetrators too. Sadly we are still unwilling to unequivocally condemn violence committed in the name of religion.

today they beat her to death, tomorrow someone might beat them to death on the same issue. Crying foul then will do no good. Time to take a clear cut stance, before it becomes too late.

Re: Afghan woman beaten to death for allegedly burning Quran

In another thread titled weird in General, there was a person being sympathetic to violent response when someone insults religion. Stating the violent responders are the ones who are injured.

Until such attitudes change among non violent people, things will not change. Unfortunately, there were SEVERAL who agreed with said person. So such support is not isolated.

Re: Afghan woman beaten to death for allegedly burning Quran

Its spreading , now it has reached Afghanistan. I thought Afghans were proud people to do something so low like this for a non issue.

Re: Afghan woman beaten to death for allegedly burning Quran

This, I know Afghanistan wasn't like this, and I hope it doesn't spread any further into Afghanistan, lets just hope any sort of influence stops now, before it reaches Pakistan.

Re: Afghan woman beaten to death for allegedly burning Quran

Any sane person living in pak/Afghanistan or India won't burn the holy book as widely known there will be some men coming for revenge ( ego tend to be bigger then religiosity, especially mullahs )

I think there's more to the story, maybe she is mentally weak or some other thing

Burning was already worse and they still threw it into water

Re: Afghan woman beaten to death for allegedly burning Quran

Something similar has happen in Pakistan before @ dragon90

Click the link , it has one more similar news but in Pakistan

Re: Afghan woman beaten to death for allegedly burning Quran

Sadly this is the reasons why I do not want to go back to Pakistan, just the sheer violence of some people

Re: Afghan woman beaten to death for allegedly burning Quran

^ I think many out there who think the same

Re: Afghan woman beaten to death for allegedly burning Quran

The 'mullah' must have been given 5 dollars for getting that done.

Re: Afghan woman beaten to death for allegedly burning Quran

I saw the video. The mob was beating the poor woman and at the same time members of the mob were consoling each other because they were so upset at the "supposed crime".

BBC News - Kabul mob attack: Women help bury ‘wrongly accused’ Farkhunda

The coffin of a woman, killed by a mob in Kabul on an apparently false charge, has been carried by women, marking a break with Afghan funeral customs.

     Hundreds of people attended a funeral for the woman, named as Farkhunda, demanding her killers be punished.
     Farkhunda had been accused of burning the Koran, but an official investigator said there was no evidence for this.
     The attack on the woman, as well as the alleged failure of police to intervene, have been heavily criticised.
     Afghan President Ashraf Ghani said he had ordered an investigation into the killing. ..........

Re: Afghan woman beaten to death for allegedly burning Quran

^ even if there was evidence she burned the book, this type of EVIL response needs to be stopped.

Re: Afghan woman beaten to death for allegedly burning Quran

Not clear what the point is here. What exactly are you trying to say?

Re: Afghan woman beaten to death for allegedly burning Quran

Good

Mard mar gaye kay auratoon ko mayyit uthana parha

Just hope women in pakistan have this courage if something similar happens

Re: Afghan woman beaten to death for allegedly burning Quran

The irony is that she “had just finished a degree in religious studies and was preparing to take a teaching post.” She would have been teaching the Quran that they accused her of destroying.

Re: Afghan woman beaten to death for allegedly burning Quran

There are plenty of fake mullahs in the third world muslim countries who happily perform such crimes upon being paid by groups/individuals with a certain agenda. It is much easier for these fake mullahs to get away with these crimes by using 'blasphemy' card. I have not read the news because this is nothing new. We keep hearing such news on almost daily basis. Generally, common humans are treated worse than donkies.

Re: Afghan woman beaten to death for allegedly burning Quran

Maybe you should read the article. The recent incident described in OP had no mention of a mullah. It was simply a mob that burn the lady who they thought burnt the holy book.
