That message came Wednesday (Feb. 14) not from a religious leader, but from CNN counterterrorism analyst Phil Mudd as he broke down while discussing the school shooting that had happened earlier in the day.
In all, 17 people were killed in the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., making it one of the deadliest school shootings in modern American history.
The shooting came on Ash Wednesday, when Catholic and many Protestant Christians remember their mortality as they begin the penitential season of Lent. It also happened to be Valentine’s Day, when many Americans plan to celebrate their loved ones, not lose them.

I strongly support the Gun- Control policy— there is no way to prevent bad people from killing innocent people.
Religion can prevent and minimize people to do the evil act. But it cannot stop 100 percent as long as God permits Evil to do so.

OHO. you support gun control? are you a real American?
No,I am not real American ( apache indian), my feeling need to have a good Gun control so bad people cannot buy it, this is common sense Rafiq,

Alhamdolillah. We agree on something.
Progressive Muslim and Ahmadiyyah should have a lot on common, because we are against the extremist Clirics interpretation of Islam that has been persecuting ahmadiyyah since long time ago.
We should reject most wahhabi interpretation of Islam that show violence, and primitive lifestyle.
That is why I want to learn and to know how Ahmadiyyah respond for each issue in Islam.
Our big problem in Islamic teaching is that there are many interpretation of each law ( verse ). Each sect of Islam had his own interpretation. We need to unite all interpretation of all verses as posible we can. Otherwise Muslim cannot be united. Right?
What do you think Rafiq?
All ❤️
The members of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community are fortunate to have the Khalifatul Masih, who is guided by Allah. He helps us to understand and we are not alone in the world. We have great collection of articles on wwww.alislam.org where we can seek guidance.
