Muslims support UK's ban on Zakir Naik

Peace khoji

You know sometimes I see people get upset about someone who has slandered another person, who the first person respects.

But you get upset when someone has respected another person, a person who you disrespect. It is rather amazing to insist that a person has ‘terrorist’ tendencies for showing respect to person whom I dislike.

It is sheer emotions I cannot accept anything contrary. I am not saying that you are not allowed to make emotional decisions, you are.

However, the government cannot be ruling on this basis. One day it could bite us in the backside, they may use the same tactics on us. So we need to stand for what is right. Our personal dislikes aside. Zakir Naik is not a terrorist and his choice of words were not appropriate for a UK audience. My wife says he should be banned for this very reason, but I say give him a break, he made a mistake in his ‘wit’. Those who keep posting this line that he uttered are doing so knowingly out of context. Listen to words of real radical clerics and you will see the difference. Abu Hamza and Omar Bakri - compare their words with Zakir Naik - if you want to be truthful.
