Muslims condemning terrorism

Date: June 14, 2002 | 3 Rabi al-Akhir 1423 Hijriah
Subjects: commentary
Way back last September, right after the WTC attacks, I compiled a page of links to various condemnations of the attacks by Muslims, both scholars and ordinary people. Recently, somebody posted a link to the page on a Yahoo news discussion board in response to a debate about a suicide bombing in Israel, then somebody posted the link again in response to a debate about the embassy bombing in Pakistan. Thanks to this, I got nearly 100 hits to that page in just the last two days.

As we all know, there's a lot of debate among Muslims about suicide bombings and the like and a lot of Muslims who never have and never will speak against it in any way. But as far as I can tell, the condemnation of the WTC attacks was nearly universal among Muslims and many people spoke up who never had before, or since.

That's why it really gets me when certain neoconservative and Zionist commentators claim that Muslims have never spoken up on the issue. Did they even bother to look? That was why those two sisters posted the link to my page, to refute just such claims.

Why do they call Islam a religion of hate, when they're the ones that are full of hate?
