Bangladesh: Muslim political party leader detained for vandalizing Hindu temple

Nov 19, 2017 2:27 pm By Robert Spencer

Hadith Qudsi 19:5: “The Prophet said that Allah commanded him to destroy all the musical instruments, idols, crosses and all the trappings of ignorance.” (The Hadith Qudsi, or holy Hadith, are those in which Muhammad transmits the words of Allah, although those words are not in the Qur’an.)

“Awami League leader among six detained over Hindu temple vandalism in Naogaon,” bdnews24.com, November 18, 2017 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Police have detained six people, including a local leader of ruling Awami League, on charges of vandalising idols at a Hindu temple at Atrai Upazila in Naogaon.

The six are Mirat union Awami League Organising Secretary Shaheedul Islam, 46, Polash Khan, 25, ‘Polash’, 28, ‘Kamal’, 32, Swapan Islam, 37, and Ratan Khandaker, 33.

Atrai Police Station OC Mobarak Hossain said the law enforcers detained them after finding their involvement in the vandalism of the idols following a dispute with the Hindus at the neighbourhood over control of an irrigation project at Barhakalipur village.

Referring to witnesses’ accounts, the OC said the two sides held a meeting next to a Kali Temple in the village on Friday night to settle the dispute, but the meeting ended with a scuffle between the groups….

    THE JIHAD GOES ON… in Bangladesh… and the attacks on Hindus, Christians, LGBT and agnostics too…

    https://www.amnesty.org/en/countries/asia-and-the-pacific/bangladesh/report-bangladesh/

    Bangladesh 2016/2017

    Armed groups claiming to act in the name of Islam killed dozens of people in targeted attacks, including foreign nationals, secular activists and lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) people. The government’s response was marked by human rights violations, including arbitrary arrests, enforced disappearances, unlawful killings, torture and other ill-treatment. The right to freedom of expression was further restricted as the government applied repressive laws and pressed criminal charges against critics.

    Abuses by armed groups (against Hindus and Christians)

    Armed groups killed at least 32 people in targeted attacks in 2016, including secular activists, LGBTI people and religious minorities. Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) and Ansar al-Islam, which respectively claimed allegiance to the armed groups Islamic State (IS) and al-Qa’ida, claimed the attacks. In April, Nazimuddin Samad became the sixth secular activist to be hacked to death in a targeted killing in less than two years. The editor of Roopbaan, Bangladesh’s only LGBTI magazine, and prominent LGBTI rights activist Xulhaz Mannan and his friend Tanay Mojumdar, were also killed by unidentified men. A range of human rights activists received threats from similar groups and said that the police did not offer enough protection, while others were reluctant to approach the police fearing they would be charged or harassed.

    In July, JMB gunmen stormed a restaurant in the capital, Dhaka, and killed at least 22 people, including 18 foreign nationals. Police responded with a heavy-handed “anti-terror” crackdown. At least 15,000 people were arrested, and human rights groups raised concerns that several thousand were politically motivated arrests of opposition supporters. Police said at least 45 suspected “terrorists” were killed in shoot-outs in the months following the July attack. Two of the surviving hostages from the attack were detained by police and held incommunicado for several weeks before being presented to court on 4 August. One of them, Hasnat Karim, was still held without charge at the end of the year.

    ChristianBosnia, you filthy Christians and idol worshipers gang up against Muslims because your religions have been inspired by the Satan who appears to you filthy Christians like a dove and to idol worshipers with eyes inside eyes. when Bhudists and dirty Hindu barbarians are slaughtering Muslims in Myanmar and India you applaud it. All of you will be casted into hottest lake of hellfire together with Holy Spirit (the Satan) forever.

      You are a piece of biological waste. It is a fallacy to categorise you and your kind as Homo Sapiens (which means wise man). Through your unbridled perversion, you are creating a situation where Muslims will to be de-recognized as human beings. And it will happen, sooner or later.

      …………………………………….

      Let’s see–ChristianBosnia mentions that Muslims are incapablke of getting along with others, and then Ibrahim itace muhammed proves his point by ranting about Christians, “Bhudists”, and “dirty Hindu barbarians”.

      Did he leave anyone out? Just the Jews,m and he confirms on this thread that Muslims plan on genocide against the Jews, leading to their “total destruction”:

      https://www.jihadwatch.org/2017/11/pa-childrens-magazine-muhammad-ordered-muslim-kids-to-throw-rocks-at-jews#comment-1777428

      Really, I think he just proved ChristianBosnia’s point. Muslims do *not* play well with others.

      Nov 19, 2017 at 11:32 pm

      Ibrahim itace muhammed says:”………….idol worshipers with eyes inside eyes……….”

      The eyes are not inside eyes. There is a third eye on the forehead which symbolizes the eye of knowledge and wisdom which one gains after enlightenment. Then one can see the world in a divine light.
      This enlightenment can only be gained after sustained exertion in morality, contemplation, meditation, austerities, penances, philosophical studies and scientific investigations. It is the result of hard work.
      Enlightenment or wisdom or God cannot be automatically achieved by just being born a Muslim or Hindu or Christian or whatever religion one is born into. Neither can it be attained just by reading a holy book just because one’s parents or ancestors read it. Without this eye of knowledge all sacred books will have no real meaning. Neither can enlightenment happen just by professing faith in one’s God and Prophet and ignorantly hating and attacking fellow humans who follow other religions.
      Without the third eye of divine knowledge one is doomed unless one follows the teachings of the sages and teachers who do possess such knowledge.
      One must take refuge in the wisdom of the prophets and the sages.

      To every nation We sent a Messenger who told its people, “Worship God and stay away from satan.”

      (Koran 16:36)

      “I am not from the West or the East.
      I am not Christian or Jew or Muslim
      I am not Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi or Zen
      I do not belong to any established religion or cultural system.
      I am neither the body nor the soul
      for I belong to the Divine Soul of my Lord, my Beloved.”

      “Christ is the kindest, most caring Doctor of Love.
      But how can Jesus possibly heal you
      if you keep hiding your pains from him?”

      “For the mystic lover who is intoxicated by the wine of mystical union with the Beloved — in his or her faith — Muslim’s House of Allah and Hindu’s Temple of Idols are the same.”

      (Jalal uddin Rumi,13th Century Muslim poet-saint)

        chand, that Jesus of filthy Christianity Was The production of paganism of mithraism of old invented in the year 325 AD.jesus of the Quran was a servant of Almighty God sent with Light to humainit like Moses and Muhammad

        • Chand says

          Nov 20, 2017 at 6:52 am

          Ibrahim itace muhammed says: “jesus of the Quran was a servant of Almighty God sent with Light to humainit like Moses and Muhammad”

          Yes, Ibrahim, I agree. I too believe he was only a human being and a prophet. And he was light to humanity.
          And it says so in the Koran, many times.

          “…………..We sent Jesus the son of Mary, confirming the Law that had come before him: We sent him the Gospel: therein was guidance and light, and confirmation of the Law that had come before him: a guidance and an admonition to those who fear Allah.” (Koran 5:46).

          The whole world knows who Jesus was. The whole world reveres him. He is the prophet of peace and compassion. Even the Prophet Muhammad claims to have followed his teachings. I understand that Muhammad had to fight battles as he was attacked for proclaiming the One God of monotheism and so had to kill his enemies, etc. Bad things do happen in battles. But all that was 1400 years ago. What relevance does any of it have now? How is the injunction to kill infidels be valid now? Muhammad won and God was saved from the idolators who attacked him and from the false prophets. But then the prophet passed away and centuries have passed. Muhammad never asked his followers to keep attacking people of other religions for time ever after. The Koran says that “there is no compulsion in religion”. How can followers of Muhammad twist his words and keep attacking people of other faiths, calling them idol worshipers. Muslims are only allowed to defend themselves when attacked, according to Islam. Hindus are a minority people in Bangladesh who need protection from Muslims, believers of the prophets Jesus and Muhammad, and not violence. And actually most Bangladeshi Muslims do not support cowardly attacks on places of worship.

          Ibrahim itace muhammed considers the Jesus of the Qur’an a “Light to humainit” because his role in Islam is to *kill Christians*.

      You idiot stinking muzzi !!!Aree we barbarians? You think hard!!! you follow a prophet,

      1. Who massacred the people at Khaibar. To justify this you would invent some crap that they were conspiring against your prophet
      2. Made sex slaves of women even before the blood on the body of the menfolk he killed heartlessly dried(Safiya for instance)
      3. Owned and traded slaves.
      4.Tortured people for treasure(Remember the kinnana incident?)
      5. Married the wife of his own son in law helped by a revelation from Allah his cohort in crime .(Do i need to point out who is it?)
      6. Who mercilessly killed 900 people in the battle of Badr.
      7. Who massacred all Jewish tribes in Arabia.
      8. Who instituted the Jizya tax on all non Muslims, which they used very well to suck the blood out of all non Muslims subjects wherever Muslims ruled.
      9. Who did not even know whom among the 73 sects of Islam would go to heaven.
      10. Who with his partner in crime Allah in Sura Al-Anfal makes taking war booty and caravan raiding divine. Every other religion would consider that common theft.
      11. Who said Paradise is obtained with under the shade of the sword.
      12. Who said that he was permitted to use terror to strike terror into the hearts of the infidel.

      The list could go on and on. Now based on this you decide who is the Barbarian, Hindus who have lived in peace with most of the religions that existed in the India like Christianity, Judaism and Islam or you who is following a simple criminal bandi

      Ibrahim itace muhammed, you follow the words and deeds of Mohammed who was a gangster. He was a criminal and murderer. You worship his words as if they are divine. Worshipping a criminal gangster and thief such as Mohammed is the worst of idolatry. Do you also worship other murderers and paedophiles?

      Muslims are terrorizing all of humanity. You do not deserve to be welcomed in the West, you are proving to be a plague of religious fanatics among whom there are many willing to kill for the ideology of your sect. The day will come when all of humanity will come together to corner you … monsters, gangsters… mafia…

    they are not actually idols, they are deities. The ancient principle behind deities is this: They are one way to focus your mind on god, and a way to practice physically serving Him personally (eg cooking for Him) even while you are here on earth. For some people it is difficult to think of god as Someone you can personally see, hear, touch, and serve. Many people believe eg that they themselves can eat or run, but God is incapable, because–even though “man is created in god’s image”– He can only be formless. Serving deities is a way to help someone who is striving to realize the personal nature of god and to realize that happiness comes from serving His senses instead of serving one’s own senses. This is why someone on this particular path would classify a man who wanted to go to heaven to have sex, instead of being absorbed in serving the Lord, as as having foolish, degraded, material consciousness.

        it’s not about not offending him. It’s a disservice bec i already know what his response would be — a ranting of hate. I don’t want to assist him in an activity that drags his mentality ever lower, and wastes my time. Better to ignore someone if talking with them can ONLY bring him and you down.

    Bangladesh: Muslim political party leader detained for vandalizing Hindu temple
    …………………….

    Could you imagine a politician in the West doing such a thing? Of course not.

    Nov 19, 2017 at 11:40 pm

    “Atrai Police Station OC Mobarak Hossain said the law enforcers detained them after finding their involvement in the vandalism of the idols following a dispute with the Hindus………………”

    The Bangladeshi govt. under Sheikh Hasina is trying to do the right things, It was probably worse under the Islamist Khaleda Zia, the previous prime minister. And the cops who act to stop these crimes are mostly Muslims themselves. And the crackdown on Jihadis and fundamentalists continue. Just yesterday they arrested a Jihadi from an Islamic State affiliated group for killing the secularist blogger Arnab Roy a couple of years ago.

      I’m glad if the current government in Bangladesh is somewhat less supportive of violence against Hindus and other Infidels there–but as this article shows, the government has never really protected non-Muslims there.

    Standard Operating Procedure for the Religion of Terror: destroy the representations of their beliefs, control their art, their dress their self-expression, and always keep them in fear that they will be destroyed next and their children enslaved or converted.
