My appeal and request to the Pakistani Talibans if they are true Muslims is to throw away their weapons and join Dawah to spread peaceful message of Islam around the world by mouth and pen. I would like to say to these Talibans that they are not serving or helping Islam but have harmed and harming its image irreparably if they continued with their methods of terror and violence in Pakistan. They are killing innocent Muslims, destroying Pakistans infra-structure and economy, which is helping not only the enemies of Pakistan but also of Islam. The so called terrorists - Taliban have no cause but death and destruction and killing of as many Muslims and innocent citizens of Pakistan as possible.
In the modern age no arms, ammunition and destructive weapons can not intimidate, suppress or subdue other peoples. We have seen that the most powerful country in the world, USA, could not achieve it in Iraq and has failed miserably in Afghanistan. In 90s the Soviet Union failed to crush the Mujhadeens fighting to liberate their land and crush Communism. Zionist Israel has tried by killing over 1.5 million innocent Palestinians and razing their land to rubble but has failed; India has failed in the occupied Kashmir despite killing over one hundred thousand innocent Kashmiris. If the Taliban believed that they could terrorise Pakistanis, it would their biggest folly. The so-called Talibans terrorising innocent Pakistanis and killing them in thousands are not Muslims but the paid murderers, suicide bombers and terrorists acting for the Zionist Israel, India and the USA to disintegrate Pakistan and harm Islam.
Enemies of Islam did not allow Prophet Mohammed (SAW) and his followers to live in peace in Madinah. Just after one year in peace of their migration, a strong army of one thousand warriors descended upon Madinah to finish off Islam for ever. It was under these extremely hard conditions, when the existence of Islam and Muslims was at stake that under divine command Muslim were allowed to fight for the cause of their faith. Even in such trying conditions, they were made to abide by certain laws and regulations, in contrast to the established traditions, In war everything is fair. And fight in the cause of Allah against those who wage war against you, but do not transgress the limit, for verily, Allah does not love the transgressors (2:190).
Permission (to fight) is given to those against whom war is being waged and, verily, Allah has indeed the power to succour them. Those who have been driven from their homelands against all rights for no reason than their saying, Our Sustainer is Allah.
This clearly shows that Islamic war is defensive and can not be offensive. Prophet Mohammed (SAW) laid down strict rules of war that included prohibitions against the harming civilians, including women, children, elders and against destroying crops, trees and livestock.
Bridges between the people of Islam and those who fear Islam must be built and if we can achieve this, it would ease the proselytes to embrace Islam. If these Taliban are true Muslims, they should know that using terrorism will lead them to destruction. Finally, the Islam demands (1) humility of the heart (qalb) consequent on a feeling of the presence of the majesty and grandeur of Allah, (2) recognition of this superiority (Allah) and humbleness (of man) by means of appropriate words and deeds, (3) reverence to show our honour to somebody Magnificent, Supreme and bowing feeling the true sublimity of Allah and the humbleness of man.
