This is sick!
Ins-ah-Allah (God-willing), we shame and name such people (if and whenever known) to the authorities because they are a danger to themselves and all others.

So true.
Interestingly, I heard professors of knowledge who were recently in a Islamic gathering talking about how in Islam altruism is so encouraged and that if everyone was altruistic as Islam asks, then there wouldn't be any need for justice. The only reason for justice arises is when between human beings there isn't any mercy.
Re: Stabbing at Leytonstone tube station "This is for Syria!"
Yes. Unfortunately so many people think that demand justice means same than demand revenge. People in the social media whose spread hate speech as well this man who stabbed unknown person in UK propably believe that what they are doing is ask justice. Unfortunately, they do not realize the difference between justice and revenge.
And of course, it´s much easy to ask just only revenge, very easy. It means that you personally doesn´t need to make much to change the things. Only what you need is to hate. Having justice you have to make hard work and a lot.
From Occupied Palestine:
We have suffered too much for too long. We will not accept apartheid masked as peace. We will settle for no less than our freedom.

Newspapers normally write more about happenings in their near areas. That´s nothing strange. I would claim that this Leytonstone stabbing wasn´t the main news in China, Ruanda or Argentina.

I think in our time things have been so perverted that we no longer understand the basic and essential principles of Islam.
Why even about justice if we as Muslims believe in Allah SWT's promise that nobody will be wronged an atom on Judgment Day and we shall all be recompensed for our actions (even if it was an atom of good).
I don't know if it is possible in our time to have true justice for people's suffering, I'll be honest.
What I do know is that we cannot imitate the evil against which we would seek justice ourselves as an ummah(nation).
Islam has clear guidelines about what we should do when and from whom to take that guidance; to do anything else is to err, and to err is to basically become like headless chickens, which is what it seems to be the modus of operandi of Daesh, Boko Haram and their ilk and therefore they have given a disgust of themselves to Muslims and non-Muslims worldwide and therefore we're (Muslims and non-Muslims) united against this type of evil.

I know, it´s difficult many times. But we have to try if not for any other reason than keep as humans.
I have had to think kind of matters many times while I have been a human right activist almost last 30 years now for the issue of Palestine (and sometimes also some other human right issues too). After hearing and seeing a lot of pain and suffering it´s sometimes difficult to think clearly. But I have to try. Without it I could now rush around the world and forum, calling for the death of all Jews, Westerners, Americans...

May Allah keeps me calm and fair.
Masha-Allah that's great, sis that you're doing this job.
Re: Stabbing at Leytonstone tube station "This is for Syria!"
CNN (on TV) is reporting that the brother of the attacker warned police that he was mentally unstable and needed treatment. UK police have acknowledged receipt of this warning.
Re: Stabbing at Leytonstone tube station "This is for Syria!"
^^ That´s so typical: when who ever else attack against others and has mentally problems, people start to discuss why the goverments cut the health care budget and when person who attacks and has mentally problems is a Muslim, people start to discuss how to stop immigration and end extremism.

Really? At the first we need to think why Syrians started to demonstrate against their ruler and why their ruler (Assad dynasty) was able to keep all power so long time. Who or what made it possible that this dynasty didn´t need to care the demands of its own people but started to butcher them?
