Indeed,
each and every act of terrorism is very unfortunate. But no madness can
ever be greater than the fanaticism propagated in the name of religion!
Because religion considers every man a human being and endows him with
the freedom to think on his own. Anything that attempts to restrain
human thoughts cannot be religion, but is fanaticism. And in the end,
every kind of extremism calls upon a calamity on oneself.
If the terrorists who carried out the attack in Kenya assume that they killed non-Muslims or those in Peshawar, Pakistan think that they targeted non-Muslims… then, they should also look at the final consequences of their acts. In Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Egypt and many other Islamic countries, every year millions of Muslims are being killed by their own brethren. Because the word ‘fanaticism’ itself implies the psychology of enmity and hatred against humanity; and once this psychology is deeply rooted, nothing can be done about it. If not outsiders, then our very own, but killing becomes a must for them.
This is not the end result of one, but of every fanaticism. Remember, it is not the human being, but his psychology that is fanatical. And psychology can’t comprehend anything beyond a point. All it knows is, if killing is the aim, then people have to be killed. Anyone, anyhow! Doesn’t matter!
Hence, all Muslims should become alert. They should not only protect themselves from such fanaticism, but criticize it as well. Human life is a wonderful opportunity bestowed upon human beings to live and love. Hence, please don’t digress from the very purpose of your life. At the same time, the people of other religions should also be on their guard and bury the fanaticism growing in their respective religions even before it raises its hood. Always bear in mind that the end result of every kind of extremism is ultimately self-destruction.
