The Gulf Crisis and New World Order — Page 97

The Gulf Crisis & The New World Order HAPPENING IN INDIA ARE A REACTION OF INJUSTICES IN PAKISTAN Whatever is happening in India is in fact a reaction to some of the incidents which have taken place in Pakistan. The way, there was a reaction in Bangladesh and in parts of Sind, as a result of happenings in India, on the same analogy the Indians justify that whatever they are doing in India is no different from what happens in Pakistan. The Hindus contend that in Pakistan also, the fanatic Mullah claims to wield his influence on others in the name of religion. On this plea, the Hindu extremists in India say that if the Mullah of Pakistan has the right to suppress the human rights of those who, according to him, are non-Muslims then why can't the Hindu faith allow us to suppress the basic rights of all Muslims for the sake of the Hindu religion and its glory. On one such occasion, during the last elections, one Hindu leader had announced that he would advice the Muslims that if they need to survive in India, they should bow down their heads in complete submission to the Hindu religion or else pack-up and leave this country. In other words there was now, no place for Muslims in India! This statement is identical to the one made by the Pakistan Mullah against the Ahmadi Muslims. But there is one difference which makes the declaration by the Pakistani Mullah even more unreasonable. In India, it was a Hindu leader who passed a verdict, though totally unreasonable, but it was against non-Hindus. However unfair be this statement, but there appears some fairness of their principle, in stating openly their feelings about non-Hindus. They did not make their views mandatory upon the people who called themselves Hindus. They passed such remarks upon Muslims who obviously have nothing in common with the Hindus. But the high-handedness and unfairness in Pakistan was a step further. In Pakistan, those who would sacrifice their lives for Islam, who would swear allegiance to the Holy Prophet Muhammad. . . , recite the Kalima(declaration) of the Unity of God and apostleship of Muhammad•u, have been declared non-Muslims by law, and then subjected to such extreme oppression which are totally forbidden in Islam. But since they did it after unilaterally declaring Ahmadi Muslims as "non-Muslims", the non-Muslim world got the excuse that if the Mullah of Pakistan can use, a so-called, Islamic injunction to mistreat others whom they consider non-Muslims, then why can't the non-Muslims (e. g. the Hindus) treat the Muslims in India or 97
