Every Indonesian, regardless of his or her faith and religion, has a right to live in peace and to expect protection from the state.
The Jakarta Globe:
Growing religious intolerance is like cancer. It takes root undetected or is brushed away as something minor until it grows to become an uncontrollable beast that devours the body.
Over the past few years, a rising number of instances of violence against religious minorities has rung alarm bells within society, but unfortunately not within the government. Attacks against Christians, the Ahmadiyah and Shia Muslims have gone unpunished despite damage to property and injury to individuals.
An open bold voice!
My dear editor of The Muslim Times.Assalamo alaikum.
Recently a very painful thing has come into my
observation that in Pakistan, the NADRA has put the word QADIANISM in the religion colunm instead of AHMADIYA or AHMADI. I am not a QADYANI, I was not born in Qadian. But I am proud to be an AHMADI.
