Asia Bibi has been sentenced to death 'for blasphemy'
“A hardline, pro-Taliban Pakistani Muslim cleric on Friday offered a reward for anyone who kills a Christian woman sentenced to death by a court on charges of insulting Islam.
Maulana Yousef Qureshi, the imam of a major mosque in the northwestern city of Peshawar, offered a £3,700 reward and warned the government against any move to abolish or change the blasphemy law.
“We will strongly resist any attempt to repeal laws which provide protection to the sanctity of Holy Prophet Mohammad,” Qureshi told a rally of hardline Islamists.”Any one who kills Asia will be given 500,000 rupees in reward from Masjid Mohabat Khan,” he said referring to his mosque.”
Don’t try to tell me this is an aberration, a quirk: this man is an imam, not an isolated, “troubled” follower. He is a leader. If the leaders of a religion are not only encouraging their followers to kill someone but actually paying them to do it – tell me, do we want that religion in our nation? Do we want more and more mosques built where imams can spread this toxic, violent religion?
Insulting Islam! This imam puts religion to shame, any insult could not bring more shame on Islam than one of its leaders offering a reward for someone to be killed for daring to criticize the religion.
This kind of “religion” is an insult to humanity. All religions are not the same, freedom of religion does not mean we have any obligation to allow or support this kind of “religion”.
Americans: do you think this kind of thing could never happen in the US? Not yet. Wait a few years until the Muslim population explodes as Americans keep having their 1.5 children families and the influx of Muslim “immigrants” continues to grow.
