Government launches Extremist ‘Toolkit’ for Schools
October 10, 2008 at 2:26 pm (Current Affairs, Islamist groups)
Our future hopes and aspirations lie in our children, children are our future. It would be every parents nightmare to know their child could be exposed to extremist ideology in schools. Most parents would agree the extremist ‘toolkit’ is welcome news. Extremist groups are known to target children to further their own selfish ambitions. These same people encourage hatred and division amongst people of different sects, race, religion, encourage killing and suicide bombing under the pretext of Jihad etc whereas Islam encourages peaceful co-existence as long freedom of worship is permitted.
How convenient that these so called ‘lslamic’ groups also forget about the charitable example of the Holy Prophet (SAW) of giving away all his personal material wealth for spending on the poor and meek, or his example of worship in establishing a spiritual relationship with Allah so much so that all who met him would stand in love, respect and awe of such a one. What about his magnanimity in victory to forgive his oppressors? Can they give such an example? Was the Holy Prophet doing all this in the name of politics? People who try to define Islam with a single bullet point often do it injustice.
May Allah (SWT) keep our children safe. Ameen.
