4 killed in Punjab
LAHORE: Gunmen opened fire at a prayer meeting in a Sialkot village in Punjab on Monday, killing four people and injuring 12, reports said.
this person definately cant be muslim..these things are happening so muslims can just fight with each other
Yeah I read it too!
But the thing is that these people were Ahmadies going for prayer! But even then It is totally not allowed to just kill people for no cause!
I was shoked(but then again this thing is so commen in Pakistan)
May Allah please guide these hypocrites who call themselves Muslims!!
Islam condemns murdering people cause of their beliefs!
tsk tsk.. This is just one of many ill-practicises imployed in Pakistan in the name of Islam.
Desolately, this is not the only incidence witnessed at worship places. Day in and out, such news fills the headings, particularly at the start of sacred months of Moharram and Ramadhan.
Pakistan is the only place in the whole world where discrimination exists in all forms, be it race, language or color, all are targeted equally.
Speaking of Religion specifically, there is no such example visible in the present day mankind where people are killed like flies and gnats for the sake of practicing their beliefs. And I am talking about a country that is one of the two founded on the basis of religion (the other being Israel). Islam is the only fundamental ideology on which thit country was brought into being.
Now is this part of Islamic teachings to kill who don’t follow others?

So sad. We will have to wait and see where this investigation takes us. In the past many cases of Ahmadi killings were closed due to “insufficient” evidence. Killing of Ahmadis in places of higher education is pretty common. This mosque killing is something relatively new. To my knowledge something like this has not happened before. Ahmadis have been killed, but not in their Mosques.
This person could be a loner, or he could be working for some Terrorist Group (Sipahe-Sahaba, or some other lowlifers). Only time will tell.
May the guy who committed this atrocity come to his senses and ask for forgiveness. This is really sad.
For a country with so many soldiers and police, it sure seems easy to carry out drive-by shootings and get away with it. The authorities need to show they are up to the job of looking after it's citizens.
As deplorable an act this is, I am always skeptical of such incidents when they occur in Sialkot, a city very very close to the Line of control. They could just as easily be a case of cross border terrorism, simply meant to incite hatred and cause further bloodshed by starting it off. However, if its an internal issue, its still just as deplorable. I agree with NYA that i havent heard of many cases happening with qadianis in a place of worship. Most of such incidents are general in nature, even though Islam is always used as a backdrop.
“We will have to wait and see where this investigation takes us”, Ahmadi yaar, I don’t think this will help in any way. The loss is irreversible, and as usual eventually all the investigations end up in trash bins.
Xtreme, this country spend 80% of its budget on defense, yet there is no security for the citizens.

Well, I too have a feeling that it might be cross-border terrorism but unless the police can manage to apprehend somebody (for a change) then it's hard to prove one way or the other.

100% right prince_x
Youz guyz wont belive this!
Two more Ahmadies were killed again yesterday while they were going to the mosque to pray Fajar AGAIN!!
I can't belive this at all!
If these people are Sipah-Sahaba than I'm really going to start to get angry!
I think we should talk about these gross people(sipah-sahabas)and unite against them so what do you all say!
Where is my Mumtaz?

This is really filthy reporting by any standards. The reporter terms “worship place” as opposed to what? A gay bar? It is called a “Mosque”.
The view of the Mullahs are also somewhat comical: “growing unrest due to activities of Qadiyanees”? what are those activities? What a bunch of morons. Yet some are trying to reason.
