Muslims Issue Fatwa Against Terrorism
New Delhi:
sunday June 1
Over 15,000 thousand muslims gathered Delhi's famous Ramlila ground to fight against Global Terrorism.
The Gathering comprised of large number of religious leaders,scholars,filmmakers and many different muslim organisations who pledged to fight against the menace of teorism together.
The Fatwa was issued by Darul Uloom and Deoband,The supreme body of Majoity Sunnis,a body authorised to issue Fatwas.
It is a good move taken by the sane muslim society,but it is to be seen if it will have any affect on the maniacs scattered around the world.
Pleae comment if you think it will help in curbing terrorism.
My question,Is Islam to be blamed for terrorism?

It might make a difference, but I think the gathering is still too small to have any real impact.
Interesting video choice for this story - I didn't really understand the comparison to be honest!

well Amy, did not find any video or picture of large muslim gathering or mosque,if did not like it sorry for that. Yes The gathering is small But the muslim population in India Listens to these authorities,Darul Uloom represent 6000 madarsas all over India.They are considered as hardliners so in a way it is good step forward.At least the will to change is there.
If you have any befitting picture or video do add in,Ihave limited tools with me.
Thanks for being part of this story which requires mebers views on this development
cheers

well Amy this is really uncalled for my story has been removed from world to local.Is terrrism not an international issue?
I believe this story has worldwide implications and would like to invite people around the globe to comment on this issue.
Do members of developing countries have a say in this matter?
it doesnt matter to me if the story is on front page or not, my hedgehog story is not in front page still people like it
that is enough for me
Can you help????

Hi aazy, the "world" tag is in your list of tags. That means it *should* have shown up under "World" news for awhile. Did it disappear from front page as things cycled but didn't disappear from the local listing for you? That being asked, I've found "local" for me to include some very weird things that aren't close to local!
On the whole, I think that anyone or any group stepping forth against terrorism is a good thing.

You know, sometimes when the systems go into "glitch" mode--and I'm not saying this happened here as I don't know--it just can be so darned confusing.

azzayindia, good story keep up the excellent work

In my opinion 1500 thousand isnt such a small number. It is a promising beginning and one that needs to be replicated in other places too. And this should be across the board: Muslim religious leaders as well as other groups, other religions, other leaders who command large followings.

Rumana there is some confusion about the numbers it is 15000 not 1500 to make it clear i have edited in the original post too,My mistake,sorry for inconvenience folks
