Yesterday was the funeral
of great scientist and former President of India Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam. Yakub Memon was also hanged to death yesterday due to his involvement in conspiracy of 1993
Mumbai blasts. There was a debate going on, on a news channel because few people
were against his death order and they were claiming that he should not be
hanged but should be given lifetime imprisonment. I didn’t understand why these
people are in favour of a person who was involved in terrorist activities. Why people are more concerned about him and why don't they think about those 297 People who were killed in 1993 Mumbai blast. As
everyone knows that few leaders like Asaduddin Ovaisi and Abi Azmi were
claiming that he was hanged because he was a Muslim but I think he was not a
Muslim. He was only a terrorist because none of the religion teaches terrorism.
Though I feel that he was a
terrorist only not Muslim however when one of the Debaters said that Muslims
should try to be like Dr. Kalam not like Yakub Mamen, I clapped and posted same
thing on my twitter. In evening one of my Muslim friends replied to my tweet
and said what about Yogi and Sakshi Maharaj who are inveterate Hindus. I hope
you understood that discussion went wrong and changed to an argument on
Hinduism and Islam and that was because of my two mistakes which are (1) When I
myself feel that a terrorist is not a Muslim, not a Hindu, not a Christian, even
not from any religion but he is only a terrorist so why have I mentioned in my
tweet that a Muslim should not be like Yakub Memon but I should have mentioned
that a person should not be like Yakub Memon. (2) We all know that Dr. Kalam
was a great person so why have I mentioned in my tweet that Muslims should try
to be like Dr. Kalam but I Should have mentioned that every person should try
to be like Dr. Kalam not only Muslims.
So the only problem is that
I didn’t think before posting that tweet and it leaded to an argument on
religion which should always be avoided. We should only be focused towards
humanity. My friend also didn’t try to make me understand that whatever I tweeted
was written incorrectly but he directly replied my tweet in the same manner of religious
conflict. I checked my tweet again and felt that I should not have tweeted this
so I deleted that tweet. Now the question is why can’t everyone use their
intellect and stay away from religious conflicts and help other people like
me to stay away from it. What I expected him to do is that he should have
corrected me and replied that not only every Muslims but every person should try
to be like Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam and also they should avoid to be like Yakub
Memon.
