@Muhammad: Its this mentality like yours which is responsible for the current situation of the country. Individuals(read liberals) like you with half baked knowledge of religion are most responsible for this situation.
May your comment reflect the glorious name you are using.
It seems that the level of tolerance has been evaporated from the society long time ago.
I don't know what the deceased Pesh Imam may have said in the Khutba of last Juma prayers?
Does any body know who has killed the Pesh Imam Sahib?
Very sad! But was the Imam who was killed belong to a minority background? possibly a Shia, or an Ahmedi?
Terrible..
what a shame now no one saying anything ....
Imam killed. Alll other "namaloom"
Human life has lost its value in Pakistan, in general and Karachi in particular. Violence begets violence and the magnitude continues to grow. Spiraling violence in Karachi has its roots in the military operation, during which nearly 15,000 youth were brutally killed, in cold blooded carnage. Once life looses its meaning and the number of people killed becomes just statistics, then bringing peace is the most difficult task.
