Yesterday I came across a TV news report, stating that some Muslim Organisations, in Mumbai have decide not to give an Islamic burial to the dead Terrorists of Mumbai. I feel that this is a step in right direction, as the authorities will be forced to burn these bodies, and as per Muslim religious belief's one should be buried and if the bodies are disposed in any other way, they may not reach heaven. Your comments and responses on this.

That does sound like a step in the right direction. It is good to see that some Muslims are accepting that some of their people do bad things and that they should not be supported in doing them just because they are Muslim.
It would be good to see Muslim countries and Imams doing the same thing.

Thanks for your response sharra, this is what grandpa_lash also mentioned in his response, if atleast one muslim country changes its policies on terrorism, it would consider it as a victory for the mankind and peace. Once one country changes its policies,others will follow, for that the Imams and mullahs have to change their thinking.

Once again thanks sharra, I agree great minds think alike,(you and Lash, not me) I am very happy that two westerners are supporting our cause, when so many of our youngesters without knowing anything about this, are just sending some posts for the sake of posting something.

Ah well great minds think alike. I hope they do learn to change. As long as the terrorists keep claiming it is a holy war there will be a problem. If Muslims want us to stop associating them with the terrorists then they must take up this attitude and separate themselves out.
I really hope that this is not an isolated case and the Muslim governments start to see that this is the only way forward.

I personally feel that organisation has taken a right decision. Those who kill others actually do not belong to any religion, they are just a blot in the name of humanity and I feel that every religion should come forward to pray for the peace of this world.

It doesn’t really matter if they reach heaven or not, what matters is that their own community is disowning them for such dastardly act and bringing shame and disrepute to their religion.
Like people of all religions, Muslims too tend to look after each other irrespective of nationality and if the situation would have been different, these ‘men from across the border’ would have been given proper respectful burial or even the Govt of India may have arranged for the bodies to be flown back to Pakistan. However, if indeed some Muslim organizations feel that these men do not deserve a true Islamic burial for their acts, it would definitely send a right message to other such misled youth who may have been nurturing dreams of joining jihadi outfits and going to heaven as martyrs. Disowning by own community is one of the worst punishments to be given to anybody and this decision would also send a correct message about the Muslims to other communities in the sense that Muslims are trying to say that people from within us who go about killing innocent people in the name of Islam, do not belong to our religion, our beliefs, our values.

Sudiptu, what a line "even the Govt.of India may have arranged for the bodies to be flown back to Pakistan". Yes this kind of things has to stop, hopefully none of our secular politicians have opened their mouths till now. Otherwise they will start advising the Muslim organizations about how bad it is and so on and so forth.

Yes that is a good sign. I agree with you on that. It is a beginning that some Muslims come out and reject them. I hope that other communities can start to separate the terrorist act the the religion of the terrorist and condemn them for their actions.

Yes, it is good that organised Muslims are standing up and disowning terrorists who act in their name without their knowledge and permission. But it is one thing for minority Muslims in a country which has suffered from such an attack to do this; it would quite another, more significant step if it were taken by Muslims in a Muslim country such as Pakistan or Indonesia, just to name a couple. I don't think we can expect those in the Arab countries to take the risk, their own governments would have something nasty to say about that.

I hope the Muslims in Pakistan take this view, because they are also suffering a lot with these religious terrorism. Once the Pakistani Muslims take a strong stance, the world around these parts, will become a much better place to live in. I have my own doubts about that, because even if the people come together, the Politicians of both countries, will not allow that to happen. Particularly ISI, the Pakistani intelligence agency will not allow it happen.

Hi.. let me state that i dont mean to intrude but this guy here Mr.Ramesh is not pointing or badmouthing any particular religion, he just exeplefied a fact that these terrorists are of none. Even discarded by their fellow muslims whereas the terrorists claim they are doing the work of allah himself... what say?

kartika1991, kindly read the post correctly, I was writing only about Mumbai terrorism, and it has been proved that all the terrorists were Muslims, further more I have not pointed the finger at the Muslim religion, on the contrary I have appreciated the Muslim organizations for taking a strong view of not allowing the terrorists to be buried in the Muslim burial ground. For your kind information, please read the Muslim holy book quaran before commenting that no religion preaches violence. It is young people like you who should know about the religions and what they preach. Going by your name I presume you are a hindu girl, if you have any Muslim friends, ask the Male members about their holy book and what it preaches. You are in for a surprise.

Terrorists need this kind of punishment. Indian Muslims are Indians and they should love this country and the land on which they are living. It is absolutely a right step in projecting that Indian Muslims are different from Muslims world over.
I dont care whether they go to heavan or hell but i can say one thing which is young unemployed Muslims in Pakistan Occupied Kashmir are brain washed in the name of Religion. They are being exploited by Pakistan to serve their own means.
India would have given them a proper burial if they are POW (prisoners of war). But these are terrorists and Muslim community gave a right info to the world.
Jai Hind. Reclaim POK

lot of muslims dont, infact some are pro pakistani, when you speak to them you will feel like speaking to isi agents..
they are only concerned when muslims are killed, see batla encounter people staying there were all up against police, shouting anti police,anti india slogans just because policemen killed terrorist who were responsible for delhi blasts
how do you trust such people , they are in large numbers, talk to them about kashmir issue, they will say it should be given to pakistan..
all i can say is lot of them have very very small brains

to check if any indian muslim is patriotic , just ask them about kashmir if they say it is of india, then its great!
if they say it should be given to pakistan then kick them hard.
if they love so much pakistan why not stay there, why stay here
i have seen large no. of muslims saying pro-pakistani statments, there religious leaders, scholors are all responsible for this

what we can do as netizens spread words across the globe, by writing blogs and discussions,
just point out pakistan is a beggar who lives on american and uk aid, and then bite those hands which feed them..
pervez musharaf made lot of money by fooling george bush, and also allowed taliban alqaueeda to regroup.
so he ate both the apples, and the world kept seeing it
pakistan has not been given any responsibility by any 1, it should not worry about muslims life else where.
those beggars pakistani cannot feed themselves, but worried about muslims in kashmir,gaza and bosnia..

this is a welcome step, muslims should come out more in open and condemn pakistan in strong words, tell them they are not the one who should be concerned about muslims everywhere
beggars pakistani have no other work, living on american and uk aid, begging constantly with world bank, begging,begging and shouting jihad, thats the only work they have to do
in the morning when they wakeup, they shout jihad,jihad till they fall sleep, and then next day again from the morning they start it again jihad,jihad no other work just to shout jihad and jihad, and i guess they dont know anything except jihad
they are beggars of such nature, they bite those hands which feed them, look america,uk america and uk are feeding them , and they attack even them
i also say pakistani cricket players,actors,singers or any one else should not be allowed in india, after all they earn money and take it back to pakistan which is used by pakistani army against india
why any 1 need them in the first place

You are right, first we must kick out the Pakistani Cricketers from the IPL. If any team selects any Pakistanis, we must boycott that IPL team, and mark it as an anti national team.

These people dont deserve the last rites, spit on them and let them decay as solid wastes. Whether they are disowned by the muslims or not doesn't matter. What shocked me more than these dreaded savages were the appaling comments of our chosen politicians.I mean RR patil's view on the incident and his shrugging off the responsibilities makes me laugh, that we have elected a bunch of jokers as our leaders. Anyways happy mylotting

Yes bodhisatya, it also made me laugh, that such a clown like RR Patil was your home minister, but good riddance to him. One saving grace is that you have "The Times of India" which is really going hammer and tongs at these politicians ( in fact the word clown was mentioned by TOI), as mentioned in my first answer, the decayed bodies should be shown to Lashkar chief.

I think it is a fair decision taken by some Muslim organisations in India.After killing such a great amount of innocent lives by these terrorists there is need for some strict and stringent laws in this direction.
I think that concerned authorities should look into this matter seriously and one suggestion can be to declare these bodies as unknown and send them back to the places where they came from.

No they must not be sent to their own countries, because then they will have a Muslim burial, these people must be cremated and their ashes should be thrown into some nasty place.Otherwise that ashes could be sent to the Lashkar E Toiba chief and he can keep it in his show case. That will be their just punishment. Thanks for the response.
