Fear or ignorance?

Reader comment on item: Islamic Law Rules In Iraq

Submitted by suleiman (Canada), Mar 4, 2004 at 16:57

it is troubling to see that more and more people are being afflicted with Islamophobia. The notion that Islam is a "menace" and that Islamic laws should in no way be instituted even in muslim majority countries shows nothing but fear on your part and that your secular ways are in no way the only guaranteerers of human rights.

Indeed Islam is going through tough times because we muslims are not establishing the core principles of the "Deen" (the Islamic way of life) in our lives and our societies. That said, Islam will triumph because truth cannot be held back for long. There's a new generation emerging in the world (even though it is in very small numbers and out of the radar) that will regain it's true Islamic identity, God-Willing Insha'Allah...
