The Quran does not justify killing of innocent persons

On the night of 24^th march 2014 sleep was an alien vocabulary for me. This was after watching a very disturbing feature on TV. A church in Likoni had been invaded and the death toll was at four and rapidly rising. As if that was not enough here was an article with some Muslim clerics justifying the death of the faithful’s in the church as if they were sheep for slaughter. In fact one SHEIKH Abubakar Sharif alias Makaburi, had the guts to say that a siege where more than seventy people had been killed (the worst of its kind in the country since another terror attack in 1998) was justified.

If I did not know better I would directly pay for his check up in Mathare hospital or better still do a harambee for Makaburi to go to a psychiatrist hospital. Why do I say this? All religious books have teachings or in the Muslim context Hadith’s that refer to aggression in terms of attack. "Put your sword back in its place," Jesus said to him, "for all who draw the sword will die by the sword. Mathew 26:52. In the same way, “The religion of Islam doesn't teach Muslims to take revenge from anyone. Yes, Islam does command the Muslims to repel evil with good and to forgive and forget.”
'A good action and a bad action are not the same. Repel the bad with something better and, if there is enmity between you and someone else, he will be like a bosom friend?' (Holy Qur'an 41:34)
