This is one amazing story, and it gives us hope for peace on Earth.
Muslims turned up in droves for the Coptic Christmas mass Thursday night, offering their bodies, and lives, as “shields” to Egypt’s threatened Christian community
Re: Egypt's Muslims act as human shield for Coptic Christians
Greetings and peace be with you Perseveranze;
I think this story is far greater than just living in peace with your neighbour, it is about risking your life, for people who are different to yourself. This story should make the news headlines in all media, because it is truly remarkable.
I am pleased to say, I read this story on a Catholic Forum.
In the pirit of praying for justice for all people.

Good news! Hope it sets a good example.
I was looking at myself talking to myself and I realized this conversation...I was having with myself looking at myself was a conversation with myself that I needed to have with myself.
Re: Egypt's Muslims act as human shield for Coptic Christians
This is what Islam teaches us my respected brother...but anger and ignorance filled the hearts with hatred and had blind not the eyes but the hearts of many Muslims and took them a way from the path of Allah ; the path of truth real endless justice happiness and peace...alas!

Anyone living in a muslim country is guaranteed protection, if Egypt was an islamic state, none of these attacks against copts would have ever occurred

Re: Egypt's Muslims act as human shield for Coptic Christians
I am a little surprised and very humbled by the very positive responses in this thread, especially those who voice very strongly that a Muslim should offer protection to their non-Muslim neighbours.
I had expected at least some Muslims to feel that supporting/enabling non-Muslims to participate in their false religious practices would be haraam.
I am glad to find out that I was wrong.
Peace glo
Here I stand.
I can do no other.
May God help me.
Amen.
Come, let us worship and bow down •
and kneel before the Lord our Maker
