Pahalgam Tourists Attack

honestly no one cares when it comes to hindus. even some hindus will post message as do not blame others. state government are themselves mocking. or they bring some distractions on some stupid language fights to hide other main issues.

if you want to bring change, encourage your relatives , friends to vote correctly. if they are in civil services or state govt positions encourage them to support people when hiring. if they are in education services encourage to promote moral values.

if you can support poor family a bit for education and survival. caste conversions for money happens.

 

It’s disheartening to witness yet another violent act carried out by individuals who claim to represent a faith often referred to as religion of peace. I’m still trying to understand what real Islam is, but one thing is clear to me, terrorists do not represent the majority of Muslims. In fact, many victims of terrorism around the world are Muslims themselves, whether the violence comes from militant groups or state-backed actions.

What troubles me, though, is the blanket solidarity I sometimes observe in the Muslim community. This often makes it difficult to distinguish between those who truly stand against violence and those who remain silent or worse, appear to rationalize it.

For example, the Muslims' outrage over Gaza. When civilians suffer there, the outpouring of support is powerful. But when similar atrocities occur elsewhere such as in Sudan, where the aggressors are also Muslim, their response is often muted. It raises difficult questions about selective outrage and double standards.

After the recent tragic attack in Pahalgam, I found the silence among many Muslim friends concerning. Some even responded by drawing comparisons to the suffering in Gaza, suggesting a form of justification or deflection. (Eg: Comments in social media like "Now Indians will know how it feels like to be killed referring India's support to Israel on Gaza war") While I understand the broader geopolitical frustrations, such reactions feel misplaced in the face of terrorism targeting innocent people based solely on their faith.

It made me think, if India chooses to crack down harder on terrorism, just as Israel has done in Gaza after Oct 7th attack, it would undoubtedly be a painful process for the people in Kashmir (Muslims). Like chemotherapy for cancer which kills both good and bad cells in the body, such measures can harm the innocent while trying to eliminate a greater threat. And while I personally lean toward humanitarian values, I also understand the urgent need to prevent further violence.

The attack in Pahalgam where innocent people were allegedly targeted based on their religion is horrifying. Such acts show how deeply rooted and brutal extremist ideologies can be. These terrorists are not protectors of their people; they are bringing destruction upon them. If retaliation follows, it’s the innocent civilians who will pay the highest price.

That’s the tragic reality. The terrorists will likely disappear into communities, using civilians as shields. But we must ask who truly suffers in the end?

My heart goes out to the victims and their families. No ideology, religion, or political grievance can justify such violence. We must find a way to stand united. Not blindly with those who share our identity, but firmly with those who uphold humanity.

 

I as a Muslim,strongly condemn this act of violence.

They or anyone else who thinks or believes that this is Islam,or these are the teachings of Islam have not studied Islam at all.I don't know what religion they follow but certainly not Islam.

You can not make God happy by killing HIS creation mercilessly and without any just cause.I and countless Muslims are against violence,be it Pahalgam,Gaza,Sudan or any place n people of any religion.What is wrong is wrong!

 

Unfortunately that statement holds no weight. What holds water is the fact that these are religion driven acts and not just one-offs.. it happens time and again and been happening for decades even centuries... You can keep bringing the 'true peaceful' aspect of islam but every such heinous act is coming heavily from that one faith. Why the teachings are misinterpreted and presented as exception which in reality are generic. If you think one god is supreme and one faith is the only right one, thats a start of the problem.
Hinduism has its own thing about self preservation , and (example) animal sacrifice but those are very localized and they dont result in social problem across the globe. You guys are just taking it all to every continent. Palestine is a mess , how can anyone support that looking at propaganda or even real pics of starving kids?
You guys have a proper festival to celebrate sacrifices... your hands dont shake when it comes to killing your loved one as long as its meant to be consumed (like a goat) or a hindu neighbor who you had been sharing sheer khurma and pleasantries with al these years with during eid .. but when it comes to that you wont twitch killing them in the name of religion... (i dont care if you are a few like you are exceptions) but data across history and around the earth says a different obvious story which you guys just choose to ignore.. its not a peaceful religion. thats a general statement,.. what you said is exception and hence has zero value- Thanks
