The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Singapore strongly condemns these attacks and call upon Muslims to unite in our efforts to uproot and push out all extremists ideologies which have no place in Islam.
The Holy Prophet of Islam (peace be upon him), made a covenant of peace & protection with Christians till the end of time in what was called the ‘Charter of Privileges’;
“This is a message from Muhammad, son of Abdullah, as a covenant to those who adopt Christianity, near and far, we are with them. Verily I, the servants, the helpers, and my followers defend them, because Christians are my citizens; and by Allah! I hold out against anything that displeases them. No compulsion is to be on them. Neither are their judges to be removed from their jobs nor their monks from their monasteries. No one is to destroy a house of their religion, to damage it, or to carry anything from it to the Muslims’ houses. Should anyone take any of these, he would spoil God’s covenant and disobey His Prophet. Verily, they are my allies and have my secure charter against all that they hate. No one is to force them to travel or to oblige them to fight. The Muslims are to fight for them. If a female Christian it married to a Muslim, it is not to take place without her approval. She is not to be prevented from visiting her church to pray. Their churches are to be respected. They are neither to be prevented from repairing them nor the sacredness of their covenants. No one of the nation of (Muslims) is to disobey the covenant till the Last Day (end of times).”
By murdering innocent worshippers and destroying houses of worship, these perpetrators have broken a sacred pact, disobeyed the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) and thus are far from the teachings of Islam.
