One thing which i shall like to comment upon here, if Taseer did badmashi instead of doing some research and sitting with qualified scholars, does the reverse also not hold true as well?
Did the Muftis and Scholars meet him to discuss the right and wrong of his argument?
Did they take...
Do i say I am comfortable with status quo in our country which is destroying it?
Indeed a strange argument considering the fact that i did not say such a thing!
I am not at all comfortable with all what happens here, however i am not a fool to believe that i should expect the likes of Fazl...

A balanced approach is now deemed Un Islamic?
Did i say to strike a balance between Islam and Kuffar?
Please do not take things out of context in your eagerness, i too am a student of Islam and am eager to learn.
The Prophet Muhammad PBUH asked us to be moderate and that is my aim in...
Abu Basit,
Brother, who is we in your comments?
Islamic system or not, when you say that you are not bothered and don't care whoever gets killed, is that not contrary to Islam?
This is not the way to bring a positive change and changes cannot be overnight.
If one is open to discussion, they...

I believe that the basis of Blasphemy Law are the verses of Surah-Al Maidah.
The punishments of those who wage war against Allāh and His Prophet and strive to spread disorder in the land are to execute them in an exemplary way or to crucify them or to amputate their hands and...
The few cases mentioned are those of habitual blasphemy perpetrated by individuals who did it without provocation or ignorance (since the Prophet PBUH was alive and infront of them as an example) and the Prophet PBUH was diviney guided in the decision regarding their fate.
Mind you these are...
The Prophet PBUH lived one life and stood by his principles, i do not know how his life before Hijra is irrelevant to me, maybe to you it is.
Your failure to understand that there is a context is something i am trying to highlight and you have proven my point by simply ignoring the context...

I feel very strongly about my religion and the Prophet Muhammad PBUH, but i have no sympathy for the man who assassinated Taseer, it is without reason and this man who is smiling on this action and all those who support him are ignorant and too full of hate to understand that they...
Whenever Nawaz Sharif gives a statement, i am reminded of the story of the man, his son and their donkey.
Nawaz Sharif's approach to be balanced and careful is too tough to emulate by ordinary humans since it requires a chameleon like ability to change colors thoroughly according to the...
Please understand that he was a highly skilled, brave and noble warrior, he killed many famous and reputed opponents in one on one duels, but he was not someone who used to behead people as an executioner.
I understand your sentiments, but your words portray him as someone who enjoyed...
Are you by any chance inspired by Nawaz Sharif's comments who had the same brilliant logic to criticize Imran Khan?
I fail to understand this very negative way to look at a leader because many times the best of leaders can have major family issues and even best of men/women can have a...
This seems an utter farce.
The interior ministry and everybody else is denying it so what is the official source of the newspaper in this case?
Anything is possible in this world, but this article seems to have no authentic source and should not be taken seriously.
Simply put, you have failed to grasp the crux of my post in your eagerness to draw parallels with entities active in Pakistan, which is a typical behavior these days i must add.
Perhaps i have ample knowledge of Afghan Taliban, TTP and Al Qaeda and choose to distinguish between these forces not...
I think the author is deliberately ignoring the facts on ground in his over eagerness to bash Pakistan.
Here it is certainly not a matter of reversion to civil war but the challenge instead is of ending a civil war which has been going on since decades in Afghanistan, a civil war which has...
All the more reason for Pakistan to maintain a credible military punch and not go lax in this regards, despite many geniuses suggesting to downsize the military since we have nukes.
This deterrence factor is the only reason such threats never became a reality since from the looks of it the...
Well the Army took the fall but it was not solely responsible, it was something which was built up over a couple of decades of mistrust and failure to recognize a potential disaster in the making.
Even when Jinnah was alive some people made a point about Bengali being national language instead...
Are you sure you are talking about Pakistan?
In what manner have the politicians answered to the people for their absolutely corrupt and inefficient handling of nearly all matters of the state for the last 3 years?
There is 0% accountability of our politicians except when they try to frame...
Jigs and Roadrunner,
Very nice to see your posts.
I would say that one of the problems with the world these days is that the developed nations tend to view others in terms of what they deem a truly emancipated and humane society.
However the culture across different countries varies...
