This is the pure derangement of fanaticism. Torturing and murdering a man for allegedly disrespecting a book. All natural sense of humanity has been destroyed in these people by the teachings of that book, and their fanatical attachment to it. Yet criticizing this book in the West will get you ostracized from polite society as a “bigot,” “racist” and “Islamophobe.”
An update on this story. “‘Son Of A Kaafir Threw Verses Of Quran In Dustbin’. Fanatics In Pakistan Kill And Burn Sri Lankan National Over ‘Blasphemy,’” Swarajya, December 3, 2021:
A Sri Lankan national, identified as Priyantha Kumara, was killed and burnt by the crowd for disrespecting Quran in Pakistan’s Sialkot district.
In a video, the victim can be seen set on fire, and a crowd of thousands raising slogans of “Gustaakh-e-Nabi ki ek saza, sar tan se juda sar tan se juda.”
In a bone-chilling case of barbarity, a fanatic crowd in Pakistan killed and burnt a factory manager accusing him of disrespecting Quran on Friday (3 December)….

A Government should be telling it’s population of these incidents.Here and a few others is where you see such things.How do the peoples of the Western World not see their Governments importing their doom and not do anything about it?
john smith says
True Shawn you hear absolutely nothing about such atrocities, as the MSM stubbornly refuses to broadcast them. Had the boot been on the other foot, and it was Christians that had burnt someone to death for disrespecting a Bible, you can be sure that you wouldn’t hear the end of it.
Keys says
People in these mobs must have a deep faith in their god – a god of violence, revenge, deceit, hate, terror, and ultimately death.
Or maybe some feel a cultural pressure to join in on the terror spurred on by their mosque leaders.

What more proof does anyone need to understand that vile filthy actions originate from vile filthy Islam.
This story makes me want avenge Priyantha Kumara’s murder by filming myself tossing a Quran into the trash and sending the video to every Islamic organization across the world. I’m having a hard time coming up with just the right title….. Me Tossing Islamic Trash into the Garbage with Other Filthy Debris…or something.
That poor man.

Non muslim cricket teams that were thinking of touring Pakistan ought to reconsider: Pakistan is still as dangerous. Oh, and Maddie Hayden, you might wanna quit that job as Pakistan’s coach while you still have your head on your shoulders. And return that qur’an to Mohammed Rizwan before you leave
gravenimage says
True, Infidel. Pakistan should be boycotted for their treatment of non-Muslims.
Westman says
Someone didn’t like the manager and started false rumors, fully intending for something like this to happen. Only Islam relegates the value of human life to zero for “unbelievers”.
In Western society, laws are intended for citizen protection. In Sharia, too many laws are intended as weapons.

Quite possibly, Westman. Charges of “blasphemy” are regularly used to settle scores, target those who are disliked, and to steal goods, property, businesses, and marriagable daughters from the victims.

What A disgusting vile cult poor man yet nothing about in western media this should be headline news This reminds me of when they use to burn witches in the Middle Ages just because they where accused of being a witch
Roshan says
God, What a disgraceful act of Gandhi ad his ignorant disciples to keep some of these wild savages in India (my beloved country) even after partition. We need to ban Islam asap.
gravenimage says
I am *no* fan of Gandhi, and there is no doubt that his appeasement of Muslims was terribly damaging. But he never actually preached Jihad terror as you seem to think. Really, the facts are damning enough.
Infidel says
Graven
Before Gandhi, islam was not regarded as a legitimate religion by Hindus, Jains, Buddhists and Sikhs, who knew fully well what it was. It was Gandhi who lent it the respectability that he did, starting w/ his support for the Khilafat movement in 1919 to restore the sultan of Turkey to the caliphate. That movement imploded after Kemal Mustafa abolished the caliphate
I didn’t read Roshan say that Gandhi preached jihad terror. But what he did do is prevent the completion of the partition: Hindus were hounded out of Pakistan (and today Bangladesh) while muslims now had two (and today 3) countries to themselves. That’s Gandhi’s sordid legacy in all of this

Why does Robert keep posting these news articles that have already been plastered all over The New York Times front pages and covered relentlessly on MSNBC and CNN?

Pakistan: Man tortured and burned alive for blasphemy was accused of throwing Qur’an verses into dustbin
………………
*Just horrifying*–this poor man. I doubt that Pakistani authorities will do much.
And “gustaakh-e-Nabi ki ek saza, sar tan se juda sar tan se juda” means “a punishment from the proud Prophet”–in other words, that this is just what the vicious “Prophet Muhammed” would have done to this victim.
peter says
“gustaakh-e-Nabi ki ek saza, sar tan se juda sar tan se juda I think actually means “Head separated from the body ,Head Separated from the body ” is the punishment for insulting God .I think that is what Quran advocates for his followers as a punishment for blasphemy .Of course I am not a scholar of Urdu or Quran.
