ISIS Attack In Moscow: Death's Dance Macabre In Islam's Holiest Month!

By Sumit Paul, New Age Islam

24  March 2024

An IIT-Guwahati student, who had allegedly pledged allegiance to ISIS and was on his way to join the terror group, was detained, police said.

The student was nabbed in Hajo area near Guwahati on Saturday evening.

His apprehension comes four days after ISIS India head Haris Farooqi alias Harish Ajmal Farukhi and his associate Anurag Singh alias Rehan were arrested in Dhubri district after they had crossed over from Bangladesh.

More than a year ago, I wrote on the site of NAI that ISIS was an idea. Now that idea has segued into an ideology and whether Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is alive or dead, this deadly ideology will continue to wreak havoc on mankind.

The above mentioned two news items aren't discrete but are dovetailed. What's so fascinating about this sanguinary ideology that an IIT student, who must be very brilliant, is drawn to it?

Do you ever get to hear or read that there are such fanatic outfits in other faiths? Agreed, all faiths are useless, but does Zoroastrianism have a dangerous faction like ISIS? Though Hinduism is also becoming fanatic, does it have such a destructive and bloodthirsty organization? Does Christianity have something ghastly like ISIS? Then why only Islam has such gory outfits like ISIS, Boko Haram, Al-Qaeda, to name but a few?

The very ideology of Islam is dangerous and flawed. All these zealots are drawing inspiration from the same desert-book, called the Quran and most of these fanatics know Arabic as it's their mother tongue. If they 'misinterpret' and 'misconstrue' a number of 'ambiguous' verses in the Koran, why shouldn't those violent and equivocal verses be expunged once and for all? Na Rahega Baans, Na Bajegi Baansuri ! But exegetes and apologists are hell-bent upon their retention as they erroneously think that the entire Quran is Allah's most sacred word, therefore, the followers have no right to tinker with it. I'm afraid, it's not from Allah. Allah cannot be so vague and obscure. It was from Muhammad and his acolytes. Try to understand this and stop this bloodbath in the name of Allah, Islam and Quran. That this book holds sway over even the 'educated' IITians and they can go to any length to justify it, speaks Islam's debilitating and diabolical influence on its followers of all hues.

Sad to say, Islam is not a religion of peace. It's a religion of piece (pieces of the bodies of the victims). This is all the more condemnable and ironic that this grisly attack of ISIS took place in the holiest month of Ramzan!

Mankind has had of all these bogus faiths. Give the beleaguered humans a semblance of peace. Do away with all religions along with their gods. But begin it with Islam.
