Islamic Centre: Muslims and Muslim Worshippers

islamic centre: This lesson was painfully demonstrated this week when a 27-year-old non-Muslim Qu b cois gunman allegedly killed six Muslim worshippers at the Quebec Cultural Islamic Centre in a case where Muslims themselves became the victims of terrorism, according to Hamilton Spectator. They were shot in their backs, in cowardly fashion, while actively engaged in this holy state of prayer. During this five to 10 minutes, a Muslim is very vulnerable. In the time of Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him congregational prayers were held in shifts when in the battlefield, with one group of Muslims standing guard while the other group prayed. In modern times, if Muslims were to resort to taking up arms to guard praying Muslims in mosques, they would likely be called terrorists. Sometimes they would have to delay their prayer altogether while they defended themselves in battle. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
