Local store robbed

[glo]

Depressing news: An Asian clothes/jewelery store was robbed at gunpoint this week - by men dressed in burkas!
What worries me most is that with incidents like this, the people most likely to suffer any backlashes are genuine Muslim women wearing the burka ... hew

That might cause bad influence to sisters who use burkhas or niqab in general. In may country some kind of people have protested against right to use niqab by just this argument: what if someone use it and go to robber a bank... and they have claimed that they feel unsecure when they see someone using it at all.

These are attempts to make this religion look bad, and the world today is full of slander and falsehood towards the religion.

Allah (swt) says:

Indeed, those who came with falsehood are a group among you. Do not think it bad for you; rather it is good for you. For every person among them is what [punishment] he has earned from the sin, and he who took upon himself the greater portion thereof - for him is a great punishment.

[24:11]

It always backfires in the end. They did far greater things to malign the religion in the past. The result? Thousands since have entered Islam.
