HASBROUCK HEIGHTS, N.J. - Oct. 19, 2014 - PRLog -- While we are passing through a time of terror, violence and ignorane, it is juts the time to remember how Turkish Islamic Scholar Fethullah Gülen view suicide bombings and violence. Below is a short summary of his ideas. Click the link at the bottom to read the entire story.

"No one can be a suicide bomber. No one can rush into crowds with bombs tied to his or her body. Regardless of the religion of these crowds, this is not religiously permissible. Even in the event of a war, during which it is difficult to maintain balances, this is not permitted in Islam, which states: “Do not touch children or people who worship in churches.”

I regret to say that some religious leaders and immature Muslims have no other weapon to hand than their fundamentalist interpretation of Islam. They use this to engage people in struggles that serve their own purposes. In fact, Islam is a true faith, and it should be lived truly. On the way to attaining faith one can never use untrue methods…. In Islam, just as a goal must be legitimate, so must all the means employed to reach that goal. From this perspective, one cannot earn Heaven by murdering another person. A Muslim cannot say, “I will kill a person and then go to Heaven.” God’s approval cannot be won by killing people. One of the most important goals for a Muslim is to win the approval of God, another being making the name of Almighty God known to the world."
