Taliban Threats Aside, The Show Goes On in Lahore

video1This is a 2009 report. Lahore the commercial hub, dynamic political center and cultural capital is just 230 miles from the Taliban’s base, Peshawar. And now, it’s the new frontier in Muslims fighting back fanaticism spawned by Taliban. Lahore is in the vortex of  Pakistan’s growing struggle against the Taliban militants. These fiends are not Muslims, because they lack the spirit of tolerance taught by the Last Messenger of Allah, Nabi-i-Karim  صلى الله عليه وسلم‎ . Tolerance of Enemies by Our Beloved Prophet( صلى الله عليه وسلم‎ ):
When people of the village of Ta’if rejected him, stoned him, ejected him, and made his feet to bleed, the angel Gabriel came to him and said, “Allah has heard what your people say to you and how they reject you. He has ordered the angels of the mountains to obey whatever you tell them to do.” The angel of the mountains called him, greeted him and said, “Send me to do what you wish. If you wish, I will crush them between the two mountains of Mecca.” The Prophet said, “Rather, I hope that Allah will bring forth from their loins those who will worship Allah alone and not associate anything with Him.” ( Bukhari and Muslim) In one of the Prophet’s  battles called al-Ahzab or Al-Khandaq, Salman advised the Prophet to dig trenches around Madinah in defense of the city, a suggestion which the Prophet happily accepted. He accepted that so that there would be no blood-shedding among the enemies. In the battle of Uhud (which happened with the infidels of Mecca), prophet Muhammad’s head get injured a deep injury and his front teeth get smashed.When the blood started to seep from his head, he swabbed it saying, “If a drop of my blood falled on the earth, those infidels will be destroyed by Allah.” Umar told him, “O Messenger of Allah, Curse them!” The prophet replied, “I wasn’t sent (by Allah) to curse. I was sent as a mercy.” Then he said, “O Allah, Guide my people!” When prophet Muhammad conquered Mecca, its leaders came to him fearing that he would kill them as all conquerors do. But instead, he said,” Go! You are all free!” He said that merciful to his worst enemies, whom he could easily eradicate from the face of the earth when he conquered Mecca, and who had hated him, rejected his call, displayed insolent arrogance towards his religion, stood and fought against him, killed his beloved Companions, deformed the dead body of his dear martyred uncle, Hamzah, and even eaten his holy liver with incredible wild rancor. Tolerance to Non-Muslims: In the year (631 CE), Prophet Muhammad received a delegation of sixty Christians from Najran in Medinah. They were received in the Prophet’s mosque wearing their crosses. The companions of prophet Muhammad tried to prevent them from praying in the mosque, but the prophet allowed them to pray in the mosque, and they did so facing East. He said, “The one who kill a mu’aahid  will not smell the smell of the Paradise although its smell can be smelled from a distance of forty years (i.e He will not enter the Paradise nor be close to it).” (Bukhari) In one of the Prophet’s  battles called al-Ahzab or Al-Khandaq, Salman advised the Prophet to dig trenches around Madinah in defense of the city, a suggestion which the Prophet happily accepted. He accepted that so that there would be no blood-shedding among the enemies.When people of the village of Ta’if rejected him, stoned him, ejected him, and made his feet to bleed, the angel Gabriel came to him and said, “Allah has heard what your people say to you and how they reject you.
