killing innocents in the name of God


"Fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you but do not transgress limits; for Allah loveth not transgressors. " (Surah Al Baqarah, verse 190). this versus is taken from Surah Baqarah, which means that killing innocent ones in the name of Allah is strictly prohibited.Refraining from committing excesses in this context implies that during the battle, children, aged persons and women should not be killed. Revenge against a tyrant should be of defensive type, limited to the degree of injury suffered. The intention is to dissuade the tyrants and oppressors from committing further atrocities and excesses. if we think of todays scenarios what our maulanas and jihad i scholars are doing they are giving the teaching to kill the innocent people through suicide bombing and gave it a name that we are killing in the name God. So Muslims please wake up and start demotivating such kind of activities.
