I used to have the view that these statues are of no concern to my people so we dont care for them and would not mind if they were not there…

However over time I have come to realise that such an attitude that treats others like lesser beings or does not truly care for all mankind is against the principals of Islam just as much as Idolatory in itself.

So we must think of these as ours or anyone elses but merely a part of the Land, left by people who came this way before us, we have no right to judge them or they to judge us. Live and let live you might say.

They are as much a part of hisotry as my people so it is better for all to be free and exists as one. No one should dominate others for selfish needs and only the ones who upset the true peace that is universal are the ones who should be punished.

Therefore the Taliban are just as much an enemy now as Nato. Both are bad for the land its people and humanity.

if we think logically why has Allah preserved Egyptian mummies of pharoahs, and the pyramids. Its mentioned in Quran that these are all reminders/signs for the people to come in the future, so by harming these reminders are we doing any favour to the religion? I dont think so.
