The recent murders of Shia community members in Pakistan has not drawn out the shock and horror that other recent atrocities such as Charlie Hebdo developed. Granted that the attack on satirists was within the bounds of Europe, though the sheer brutality and scale of killings in Pakistan has not created the same level of outpouring on social media. For the Shia that have been killed, there are no hashtags nor any significant outcry by politicians in Europe (or elsewhere) .

So let us review the targeting of Shia that has taken place by the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and other extremist groups in the country. Since 2008, the targeting of Hazara and other Shia Muslims in Balochistan has resulted in thousands of deaths (including two bombings in Quetta in January and February 2013 that killed over 180 people). Or take the blast at the Shia mosque in Shikarpur earlier this year that killed over 40 Shia worshippers praying at the mosque. The Sindh province has been targeted by the extremist Jundallah group that pledged allegiance to both the TTP and ISIS. http://religiousreader.org/where-is-the-global-support-for-pakistans-shia-community/

As more Shia are murdered in Pakistan, Fiyaz Mughal asks where is the global solidarity in face of this terrorism?

Unity does not equate to uniformity. Some people have the view that unity can only be achieved among people who have the same (or identical) set of beliefs, cultural practices, and paradigms. This is not only highly improbable, but is also flawed conceptually. See, human beings are complex creatures, with their own set of unique experiences that shape their paradigms. Forget billions of Muslims, you would not find two people who are exactly the same. http://www.patheos.com/blogs/quranalyzeit/2014/02/28/united-sects-of-islam-a-different-perspective-on-unity-and-sectarianism/

A very popular argument atheists and non-religious people often bring up when discussing religion is that religion seeks to divide & rule. It divides people, sometimes causing a lot of bloodshed, and therefore religion is evil and must be abolished. True, religion has indeed caused a lot of bloodshe…

''Profetul Muhammad a fost deja, cât se poate de „empiric” și neinterpretabil, insultat, umilit, lovit, demonizat în societatea din vremea sa și nu le-a cerut celor care procedau astfel să înceteze, nici nu i-a ucis, ci s-a rugat pentru binele lor.
Atunci când vecinul care obișnuia să își arunce zilnic gunoiul menajer în fața ușii Profetului și-a întrerupt subit rutina, Profetul s-a îngrijorat, presupunând că s-a îmbolnăvit, și l-a vizitat pentru a-și oferi ajutorul. Dacă toți musulmanii ar fi emulat, așa cm pretind, modelul profetic, jurnaliștii respectivi ar fi trebuit nu să rămână încremeniți în moarte, ci doar siderați de comportamentul neverosimil de grijuliu și „creștinesc” al adepților lui Muhammad.'' http://www.lapunkt.ro/2015/01/09/je-suis-charlie-et-ahmed/

Sunt musulmană pur și simplu pentru că am regăsit în Coran ceea ce descoperisem și în Bhagavat-Gita sau în Biblie. Ceilalți nu trebuie să vadă frumusețe

În această duminică, 14 decembrie, ora 9.30, la Piața Romană (în față la ASE), suntem invitați, indiferent de religie sau confesiune religioasă, să ne reamintim semnificațiile sacrificiului asumat de către imamul Hussein AS la Karbala. Zilele acestea, la Karbala, peste douăzeci de milioane de oameni - musulmani șiiți, sunniți, sufiți, creștini, hinduși, yazidi, zoroastrieni etc - s-au adunat pentru a comemora martiriul imamului Hussein AS și pentru a medita asupra relevanței vii a acestui sacrificiu pentru orice comunitate și orice individ. Sângele a învins sabia, iar cel nedreptățit a obținut victoria prin răbdare, iubire și demnitate.

The bottom line remains that within a few weeks, a key Saudi Shiite cleric has been sentenced to death in an unfair trial and a group of Sunni militants were able to kill Shiites in a house of worship on the eve of Ashura. It is hard to see how Shiite Muslims should feel safe and accepted in a state where anti-Shiism is perpetuated in schooling and public discourse and such atrocities are allowed to happen. The recent killings have confirmed the truism that Gulf Arab support for sectarian hate speech and militias abroad would one day backfire, and they have set a worrying precedent. Parts of the Saudi ruling family may finally feel that their long-standing association with the Wahhabi religious establishment and radical anti-Shiite groups in the region may have been a strategic mistake. But these ties are ties that bind, and they are difficult to undo. After decades of using anti-Shiism as a strategic tool at home and abroad it will be virtually impossible to backtrack without alienating the core constituencies of the Saudi regime. And so the contradictions within the Saudi political system, and the regional sectarian war, are likely to get worse rather than better in the foreseeable future. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/monkey-cage/wp/2014/11/18/sectarianism-comes-back-to-bite-saudi-arabia/

The sentencing to death of Saudi Shiite cleric Nimr al-Nimr sets a worrying precedent for how the kingdom deals with political dissent.

How did the Muslim community go from lovingly gathering
around Muhammad to killing his precious grandchildren in less than two
generations? These issues are at the very heart of the schism that eventually manifested itself as the split between those who came known as
the Shia and the Sunni factions of Islam. For many
Muslims, particularly for those who call themselves the Shia, the
martyrdom of Imam Hossein on the 10th day of each Muharram (referred to as Ashura) is indeed a cosmic event whose significance is far greater than merely something in the remote plains of 7th century Iraq. May all these Yazids, literal and metaphorical, be upended on this and every Ashura, so that we can realize the daily relevance of the teachings of a beautiful and meaningful Islam. May we do more than merely shed tears. May we rise, majestically, to embody the spirit of revolution, in countering tyranny and oppression.http://archives.religionnews.com/blogs/omid-safi/blood-of-the-innocents-martyrdom-of-the-prophets-family-then-and-now

The real question is not just what Imam Hossein did in the Muharram of 680 CE on the plains of Karbala in Iraq, but rather what are we doing today.
