A terrorist can't be a Muslim and Muslim can't be a terrorist
Some
comments about explosions in Moscow subway
that appeared in Mass Media gave those terrorists rank of “shaheeds”. The
Chairman of the Russian Mufties Council sheikh mufti Ravil Gainutdin has
to declare that such comments when this word is highly revered by Muslims
and means a person who died in the fair struggle with aggression, defending
Islam, is assigned with killers, can be seen as inciting young people to such violent
acts. We repeatedly affirm: a terrorist can’t be a Muslim, and Muslim can’t be a terrorist. Extremism and terrorism have no ground in the Holy Quran and the Sunnah of the Prophet (s.w.s). The belief that actions of some individuals and groups can’t be attributed to religion and its teachings gradually begins to dominate in our society. We see our goal in reaching such a situation when extremists who disguised and cover themselves with religion will not only become few, but disappear. And using religious terms in the Mass Media shouldn’t be an irresponsible stamp or cliché that can be further provocation and incitement. The Russian Mufties Council have repeatedly advocated the initiative of the official ban on reporting on ethnic and religious identity of violators of the law. We believe that we should implement this as a law to preserve the unity of Russian society, our Russia and prevent ethnic and religious strife.
