MURFREESBORO, TENNESSEE
Middle Tennessee State University
A friend just called to say that a Pro-Life group on campus will be using Images of Sept 11 on it's 6th anniversary to show how if you have an abortion you are no better than terrorists....(radical Islam)
that being said
No matter your personal stance ..ion, obviously it's completely insensitive to use such an analogy, and especially when emotions will already be high on that day. This could potentially lead to anti-Islamic incidents on campus that day. It's important that we go by the table at the KUC to see what information they are giving.
The campus is all about free speech...we can't silence the stupidity, but we can take the wind out of their sails by explaining the following.
Basically, Islam considers life as a sacred gift from God Almighty. No one is allowed to take or stop the life of anyone else except by way of justice or according to the Islamic law. Thus, the Holy Quran says: "Say: Come, I will rehearse what God has really prohibited you from: Join nothing as equal with Him; be good to your parents, kill not your children on a plea of poverty; We provide sustenance for you and for them; approach not shameful deeds, whether open or secret; take not life, which God has made sacred, except by a way of justice and law (Chapter 6, Verse 151).
In another verse, the Holy Quran says: "Kill not your children for fear of want; it is We who provide sustenance for them as well as for you; for verily killing them is a great sin.
(Chapter 17, Verse 31).
What should we understand from these two verses? First of all, it is a grave sin to take the life of children for fear of want as was the habit during that period. Neither is it allowed to do so for any other reason unless a great evil is caused by the presence of the fetus that may cause the death of the mother.

In pre-Islamic Arabia killing of female infants was very common and very often the moment a female was born she was buried alive.
Islam prohibits infanticide or killing of female infants. This is considered a serious crime of murder.
Surah Al-Takvir Chapter 81, Verses 8 and 9 (81 : 8-9)
"When the female (infant), buried alive, is questioned, for what crime she was killed." (17:31), (6:15)
Please help me make sure that the people on campus that day are not spreading HATE....Islam is very clear ..ion and taking innocent lives.

rebelsmartgirl:
errrr...i completely fail to see any sort of connection between terrorists and females who have abortions, wow. i'd start my own group and show up at the anniversary with vinyl flooring samples to show that this group of pro-lifers doesn't make any sense at all.
pink_n_violent:
that would have been excellent
