Hello!
I am a muslim woman in Pakistan, and a former student of Alhuda. I am shocked and saddened by what happened, the totally unjustifiable murder of these 14 innocent people. Wanton destruction of precious human life is so alien to what I learnt at Alhuda that I cannot fathom what Tashfeen did there.
As a student, I personally heard the teacher Dr. Farhat Hashmi teach on multiple occasions: ‘there is no greater force than love. The best way to eliminate an enemy is to make them a friend through kind dealings’. Also, I personally heard teachers discourage interest in militancy. We asked them about the organizations that promote jihad, and the teacher referred us to the Quran, 2:40-46, where we learn that the people of Moses were oppressed by Pharaoh for straying from the path of moral rectitude. And our teacher said only self correction will alleviate the plight of muslims today. Not fighting a phantom ‘them’.
Cutting trees, harming noncombatants is forbidden even when soldiers are at war.. what to speak of the cowardly act of mowing down defenceless innocent people in peacetime !!!
As citizens of America, Islam demands that they show respect for the land they live in, and the people they live among.
Sorry, this is getting long, it was not meant as a religious discussion. Nothing can justify these horrible killings, and as a Muslim, Pakistani, Alhuda student and mother, I humbly extend my prayers, love, respects and apologies to those affected. May we all find peace. May God bless the people of San Bernardino
This is a wise decision to help families and other people who had any relation to that event in December
