Bomb hits historic India mosque

Many of the injured are in a serious condition
At least seven people have been killed in a bomb explosion at a historic mosque in the southern Indian city of Hyderabad, the authorities say.
Dozens more were hurt in the blast during Friday prayers at the Mecca Masjid, one of India's biggest mosques.

Interior Minister Shivraj Patil said the explosion at the entrance to the mosque was caused by a "crude bomb".

Police say they also found and defused two live bombs near the mosque. It is not clear who carried out the attack.

People started running helter-skelter, there was such confusion - people were bleeding, running around in a very bad condition

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh condemned the attack and urged citizens "to maintain peace and communal harmony".

YS Rajashekhar Reddy, chief minister of Andhra Pradesh state of which Hyderabad is capital, said the bombing was an act of "sabotage on the peace and tranquillity in the country".

Injured

The blast took place as thousands of Muslims were ending Friday prayers at the Mecca Masjid.

Hyderabad is one of the biggest cities in southern India and has a large Muslim population, many of whom live in the congested old city where the mosque is located.

There was chaos and anger after the explosion. Many in the congregation ran for cover, some covered in blood. Ambulances ferried the injured to hospital.

"I was very close to the spot of the blast," one man, Abdul Quader, who escaped with minor leg injuries, told the Associated Press.

INNI LILLAHI WA INNI ILLAHI RAJIOON

May Allah admit the martyrs into Paradise, and may He comfort the bereaved families. We send are condolences to all victims' families and pray for those who are injured, that may Allah Taala grant them speedy recovery. Ameen, summa Ameen.

Hindus are most likely behind this cowardly, inhuman attack on Muslims while they were worshipping Allah peacefully in their masjid for jumuah. This is the most cowardly and satanic thing these hindus have done. We will have revenge, insha Allah.

the recompense of an injury is an injury the like thereof (Ash-Shuara 42:40)

 

[IB-Staff]

This is the most cowardly and satanic thing these hindus have done.

Oh so you know who did it? You can help the police solve the mystery then.

We will have revenge, insha Allah.

Alhamdulillah they don't have you there.

 

[shev]

revenge is being same with those people.:raging: and how will you know who is innocent :?

True but in it's wholeness we read:

42:37. Those who avoid the greater crimes and shameful deeds, and, when they are angry even then forgive; S P C
42:38. Those who hearken to their Lord, and establish regular Prayer; who (conduct) their affairs by mutual Consultation; who spend out of what We bestow on them for Sustenance; S P C

42:39. And those who, when an oppressive wrong is inflicted on them, (are not cowed but) help and defend themselves. S P C
42:40. The recompense for an injury is an injury equal thereto (in degree): but if a person forgives and makes reconciliation, his reward is due from Allah: for (Allah) loveth not those who do wrong. S P C

42:41. But indeed if any do help and defend themselves after a wrong (done) to them, against such there is no cause of blame. S P C
42:42. The blame is only against those who oppress men and wrong-doing and insolently transgress beyond bounds through the land, defying right and justice: for such there will be a penalty grievous. S P C

42:43. But indeed if any show patience and forgive, that would truly be an exercise of courageous will and resolution in the conduct of affairs.

Yusuf Ali's Quran Translation

Revenge is best left to Allah(swt). True we must defend ourselves but while defending we should not become like those we are defending ourselves from. there is a fine line between being a defender and in becoming a transgressor. When seeking revenge it must be done only as Allah(swt) allows and only to the degree allowed.

I agree.
At the moment, the biggest enemy is ourselves. We need to unite before we can put up a common front.

More to the article, may Allah forgive the sins of those killed and grant them peace and jannah Inshallah.

It's very saddening.

If by revenge you mean indiscriminant killing of hindus who you have no idea whether they were involved or not, I'd just like to say (speaking for the devil), please keep up the good work in perpetuating the cycle of violence.

Thanks.

The odd thing about "terrorism" being reserved for Muslims, is that it seams Muslims are responsible for bombing the mosques.
Just another case of Muslim on Muslim terrorism.

 

[Nσσя'υℓ Jαииαн]

^^There was an incident once in India where some Hindus destroyed a Mosque there and instead of speaking up against what was done or trying to rebuild it, they built a Mandir(hindu temple) over it. The Mosque was there for quite a while.

 

[snakelegs]

yup, babri masjid, built in 1600 something...last i knew there the situation is still open.
politicians jerk people around by the strings to suit their own purposes. they have made hindus and muslims enemies.
for those interested

There has been atrocities committed by every group. Hindu's have done some really terrible things. That does not change who committed this act of terrorism.

Im not saying anything. Im bringing up related issues. No need to think otherwise.

Peace

/Peace To All

Here's a story from India about a bombing of another Mosque that was perpetrated by Sikh's. But, the message was actually directed towards the Indian government and a local Hindu party.

What I find outragous about these 2 reports, is that both were described as "Sabotage" and "Violence," and not as acts of terrorism.

Unfortunately, the label "Terrorism," has been exclusively reserved for Muslims. And members of other communities get a diluted and less sinister terminology...

THIS IS MORE PROPAGANDA by the hindu cretins!

the above incident occured because the hindus are dead keen on killing the sikh movement. They fear the Sikh links (which we have becasuse of our sikh shrines being in pakistan) with muslims. they will do anything to cause rifts between sikhs and muslims (as have done for centuries)

The DSS is a cult backed by hindu animals who cause problems between sikhs by mocking the sikh faith. the khalistan movemnet is alive and will prosper.

NOTE - the sikhs did not and will not attack another place of worship. although you may beleive in what you want.

HuJI a suspect in mosque blast
BS Reporter / New Delhi May 20, 2007
Bangladesh-based terror group Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami (HuJI) on Saturday emerged as the prime suspect in the blast at the Mecca Masjid in Hyderabad as investigators claimed to have made a breakthrough with the recovery of a SIM card from a phone attached to an unexploded bomb.

Eleven people were killed in the explosion that occurred during Friday prayers while five more died when police fired on protesters who attacked shops and petrol pumps in the communally sensitive Charminar area.

Home Minister Shivraj Patil and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y S Rajasekhara Reddy, who both went to the mosque and visited the injured, said they were not averse to a CBI probe into the terrorist attack.

Hindu propoganda media is blaming it on Muslims, what a joke. They can't even decide which "Terrorist" group is responsible (Laskhar-e-Taiba or Jaish-e-Muhammad).

There is no question, Hindus are behind this cowardly terrorist attack on a Masjid during jumuah prayers killing 7 innocent Muslim martyrs. We will have revenge, insha Allah. Hindu mandirs in Pakistan and Bangladesh are open targets for Muslims, who have the right to take the law into their own hands.

 

[Trumble]

Your being in denial doesn't change the fact that there seems to be every question, and that Hindus are probably not responsible regardless of your desire to unleash 'revenge' on any Hindu in sight. Sometimes the world just isn't as you would like it to be, I'm afraid.

 

[Talha777]

Show me the evidence that indicates Muslims are behind this. There is none. And I never said to ever kill innocent people. I said that Hindu mandirs are targets in Muslim countries, because evidently Muslim mosques are targets in Hindu India.

The minute we lower ourselves to those standards we have become worse as we know better and have the Qur'an to guide us. Ignorance can be excused but the desire to defile Islam in the name of revenge is a loss to us as Muslims and causes us t to act as non-Muslims. There is no justification in killing innocents. That is something we are forbidden to do. We can not let the acts of some people reduce us to savages and behave in a manner that is as bad as the actions of the Kaffir. It is up to us as Muslims to rise above such ignorance and to seek Justice through the Qur'an and not through our own desires.
