Ban on processions-Religious rulings?

Re: Ban on processions-Religious rulings?

They shouldn’t be allowed in public because they are a minority ritual and a minority or majority has no right to disturb the life of a whole city. If they have to worship then go to a particular place for that.

Any loud and violent gatherings such as those of Aashura must be banned, they scare the kids off!

Do not make it a battlefield, it’s not a war, do not act like an angry battalion that is full of rage. Keep you anger within your heads and sit at your own houses, do not show it off in public.

As I said this is not a new phenomena; violence has always been connected to the aashura processions, in all decades. Go open a book of history for the recent past for example.

No sane nation should allow such violent processions as those of aashura.

They carry weapons and chemicals to torch buildings and vehicles with them. A couple of years ago, they torched business centres in the old Karachi and vehicles and banks etc because there was a terrorist attack on the procession.

Torching public and private property and vehicles is a norm to such people.

I hope you don’t want me to provide you with links in order to prove the above?

Perhaps some people attack you because you incite hatred and cause controversy. The incitement of crime is as bad as is the crime.

Sectarian attacks are perpetrated upon the aashura processions and from the attendants of such processions. Terrorists and extremists are on both sides.

That’s why shut the door that opens sectarian killings.

We don’t care what’s happening at other places, we only care for our own country. In our country these Muharram processions cause violence, killings and law and order problems. Simply ban them!
