NOTE: When Jay Jason from San Francisco editorial team called me yesterday for verification before printing this, we had a little chit chat about my Muslim News.
Then it occurred to me that I had left out our famous slogan “Love for All and Hatred for None.” I requested Jason to add it at the end which he kindly did. My grateful thanks to Jay Jason and SF Chronicle. ( H. Koya)
Patience and love for all
As a member of the international Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, I wish to appeal to all Muslims to exercise restraint and patience, for Quran says God is with the patient.
Secondly, Quran says not to create disorder on earth whether it is simple misdemeanor or of felonious nature causing property damage or risking human life.
Being patient is not cowardice or taking defeat, it is rising to the level of being righteous that Quran calls “muttaqee.”
Love for all, hatred for none.
