MALICE TOWARD NONE?
- Share via
In a (March 15) letter, Irfan Mirza states, “Wishing malice on someone, as the word curse implies, is not in keeping with the good-natured spirit of Islam.”
Khomeini put a bounty on Sal-man Rushdie’s head, allowed hostages to be taken in Iran and did not stop cries for “death to the great Satan” (the USA). Other Moslems took hostages in Lebanon, torturing one to death. Other Moslems killed Marines in Beirut, while still others put bombs on airliners killing innocent people.
These are only some examples of the good-natured spirit of Islam.
