“The recent terrorist attack in Kenya is yet another despicable reminder of the reality of these neo-Kharijite groups.

What do they hope to accomplish with this bloodshed? Which Lord commanded them to do this? Which Book do they read in which it says to massacre innocents? Which prophet do they think they are defending, when they test people with the Prophet's (SAW) mother's name, and kill anyone who doesn't know her name?

Do they not realize that their very Lord, and their very Book, and their very Prophet (SAW), have nothing to do with their madness and fanaticism?

Anyone who brings in foreign policy here has truly lost the plot. This is the black-and-white mentality that has led to such fanaticism in the first place. We are opposed to the injustices of Western governments, but we are even MORE opposed to the injustices of Muslims, BECAUSE AS MUSLIMS THEY SHOULD KNOW BETTER, AND AS MUSLIMS THEY ARE REQUIRED TO REPRESENT THEIR FAITH.

The actions of these terrorists has nothing to do with the faith I believe in and subscribe to.
