Μπαγκλαντές: Χιλιάδες ισλαμιστές θέλουν να καταστρέψουν το άγαλμα της Ελληνίδας Θεάς Θέμιδας

21 Απριλίου 2017, 21:37

Χιλιάδες έξαλλοι ισλαμιστές διαδήλωσαν την Παρασκευή στο Μπανγκλαντές, διαμαρτυρόμενοι για το άγαλμα της Θέμιδας, της θεάς της Δικαιοσύνης, που έχει τοποθετηθεί έξω από το Ανώτατο Δικαστήριο της χώρας, το οποίο θεωρούν «ανάρμοστο» για μια μουσουλμανική χώρα.

Την Παρασκευή, πλήθος υποστηρικτών της οργάνωσης Ισλάμι Αντολάν Μπανγκλαντές (ΙΑΒ) συγκεντρώθηκε μετά την προσευχή έξω από το εθνικό τέμενος της χώρας, το Μπαϊτούλ Μουκαράμ, στο κέντρο της Ντάκα.

The truth about sculptures and idols

We cannot bow down to religious fanatics

Worshipping idols is strictly prohibited in the Qur’an: “What you worship instead of Allah are mere idols, and you invent a lie. Indeed, those whom you worship besides Allah have no control over your provision” (Holy Qur’an 29:17).

It is also strictly prohibited in both Judaism and Christianity. In the Bible it is written: “You shall not make for yourselves idols, nor shall you set up for yourselves an image or a sacred pillar, nor shall you place a figured stone in your land to bow down to it” (Leviticus 26:1).

The central dogma of all Abrahamic religion is monotheism, not gods nor human personification of gods, but an omnipotent Almighty who is all-powerful, all-benevolent, intangible, and unseen. It is, therefore, a central aspect of every Muslim or every Jewish person’s faith that idols, in any form, should not be worshipped.

Right now, there is a debate raging in almost every living room, tea stall, and office break room about the sculpture placed in front of the Supreme Court in Dhaka. If you support keeping it, you must be an idol-worshipper, and therefore should be condemned to hell.

Hefazat-e-Islam, and other small-time Islamist groups, who do not have any elected representative in the parliament, are demanding this “idol” be removed, claiming it to be in violation of Islamic principles. Hefazat’s secretary general said that “people of all faiths are against this.” Islami Andolan Bangladesh chief and the Pir of Charmonai said, if the sculpture was not removed, they would “create a river of blood” in protest.

Here are a couple of the lies and propaganda which need to be debunked categorically, clearly, and immediately.

• ‘This is a Greek idol’
• ‘People of all faiths are against it’
• ‘This Idol is in violation of Islamic principles’
• ‘We will create a river of blood to protest it’
• Only Allah has the right to judge men
