amid the bustle of Mumbai a call to
prayer Islam is the second biggest
religion in this India's biggest
city the last six days have been
troubling ones for the city's Muslims
the Indian authorities believe azal
cassab the man who was arrested and the
nine other gunmen who were killed were
all Muslims from Pakistan
now the Muslim Council trust has written
this letter saying they should not be
buried as Muslims it says Islam does not
approve of want and killings and
targeting
non-combatant as such it can be safely
surmised that such criminals cannot be
Muslims hence we request you to deny
them
burial a person having faith in Islam is
a Muslim the person not believing in the
principles of Islam cannot be a Muslim
therefore we have demanded that Muslim
cemeteries should not allow terrorists
to be buried in their burial grounds
local Muslims support the
decision they have not considered
children they have not considered elders
and women they did whatever they wanted
to do no Mumbai Muslim would want the
terrorists to be buried in their burial
grounds the attackers cannot be called
Muslims these terrorists don't have a
religion and they're definitely
Muslim in this huge densely populated
city people of different religions live
side by side this is a Hindu temple just
across the road we have a church and if
you walk a little further up here you
find that we've got a mosque people here
have told me that they agree with their
religious leaders they say the gunmen do
not represent their religion Islam James
