Inhuman killings harm the religion most

We are deeply shocked for the death of 141 persons out of which 132 are child students in an Army Public School at Warshuk Road of Peshwar maintained by Pakistan Army due to arms attack led by 7 gunmen of Tehrik-e-Taleban, Pakistan (TTP) at 10.00 am on December 16, 2014, when annual examination was being conducted. We pray to Almighty Allah for the salvation of their departed souls and express our sympathy to their families. Besides this, 125 persons were wounded; some very seriously. These seven gunmen were killed by Pakistan army during the counter fights. We express our deep sorrow at this hatred incident. How could TTP establish Islamic ideology in Pakistan by killing child students and general people of Pakistan is a big question? This is simply inhuman and mindless killings of innocent children in the name of religion which Islam does not approve in any manner.
We have no objection to TTP’s preaching of religious ideologies. But certainly we do not support killing of human beings on any pretext. TTP should realize it fully that they are rather harming the religion by killing people.
