Murder
in the Name of Allah
Murder in the Name of Allah is the first
translation into English of Mazhab
Ke Nam Per Khoon, a re-affirmation of the basic tenets of
Islam.
Hardly a day passes on which an Islamic event does
not make headlines. The president of a Muslim country is assassinated
by the supporters of Muslim brotherhood; a European journalist
is taken hostage by Islamic Jihad; a Pan-American aircraft is hijacked
by another Muslim group; American university professors are taken
into custody by Hezbullah; Two passenger carrying airplanes were
slammed in to world trade center. The glare of 'Islamic' revolution
in Iran is reflected through the flares of every gulf oil refinery.
This book is a reminder that the purpose of any
religion is the spread of peace, tolerance and understanding.
It argues that the meaning of Islam—submission to the will of God—has
been steadily corrupted by minority elements in the community.
Instead of spreading peace, the religion has been abused by fanatics
and made an excuse for violence and the spread of terror, both
inside and outside the faith.
In confirming the true spirit of Islam, it makes
the point to followers of all religions that the future of mankind
depends on the intrinsic values of love, tolerance, and freedom
of conscience and of belief.
