One part of me doesn't feel sorry for them.
Other say RIP.
Other say RIP.
May Allah forgive them, if they were stealing or not.
There's a hadith about the Battle of Khyber that a teenage boy was serving the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, and was killed... companions were praising his deeds, but the Prophet warned he entered hell-fire for stealing a pair of slippers from spoils of war... and we have 'chapal chors' in masjids, and we have those who steal time from their office hours by texting their gfs while at work, or reciting Surah Yaseen while at work.. first sweep before our own door then may talk about politicians.

123 burnt to death as oil tanker catches fire in Bahawalpur

Vehicles burnt to ashes after the oil tanker caught fire.
BAHAWALPUR: At least 123 people were burnt to death when an oil tanker caught fire in Bahawalpur's Ahmedpur Sharqia Sunday morning, according to rescue sources.
Around 40 people were reported injured and taken to Bahawal Victoria Hospital and District Headquarters Hospital Sharqia in critical condition, Rescue 1122 Director General Dr Rizwan Naseer. Most of those taken to the hospitals got 70% burn injuries, while more deaths are feared.
People in the area had gathered to collect fuel that was leaking from the oil tanker after it toppled over, said the rescue sources.
Eyewitnesses said some people in the vicinity were smoking cigarettes, which could have ignited the inferno.
Smoke billows from the oil tanker that caught fire near the National Highway.
Dozens of vehicles, including 75 motorbikes and four cars, were engulfed in the blaze that erupted in Pul Paka near the National Highway, an area located in the middle of the city. Most of the affected people were residents of the locality near by, while others were passing by on the route.
According to rescue sources, identities of the deceased cannot be ascertained without obtaining their DNA sample, as their bodies were badly burnt in the incident.
Although the inferno has been controlled, the road has not been cleared yet. Besides, rescue work was under way as some of the bodies stuck in the wreck were being taken out.
The motorway authorities have created diversions on the National Highway so that traffic flow is not impeded. The volume of traffic on the route is likely to increase as people would be using the National Highway to travel to their hometowns for Eid-ul-Fitr that is expected to be celebrated in many parts of Pakistan on Monday (tomorrow).
Punjab Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif has condemned the incident and demanded the authorities concerned to provide the relevant report.
This is a developing story and will be updated as further details are available.

We have to make dua that is our religious duty but still I am not sorry
Wow, stealing oil after it was toppled and smoking near by. Don't they watch Hollywood films if never studied science? Or too much desi vodka or drugs have sedated their brains?
The above lines are for those who were stealing and smoking and who caused other people die too.
