I read with trepidation the above report and other stories about the Ahmadiyya Muslim community published by your esteemed daily.
The tragic irony of the persecution of the Ahmadiyya Muslim community in Malaysia is that Ahmadi Muslims practice the most moderate brand Islam in the world.
In the face of brutal persecution in Pakistan, Bangladesh and Indonesia, Ahmadi Muslims advocate universal human rights, non-violence and absolute justice.
They have vociferously condemned militant and perverse manifestations of Islam.
They have set up schools, hospitals and welfare programmes all over the world. They have built inter-religious coalitions against affronts to basic civil and religious liberties.
Indeed, the Ahmadiyya Muslim community provides hope to a world that desperately struggles to understand and embrace Islam's true and peaceful teachings.
Malaysia stands a beacon of prosperity in Asia. Vibrant and progressive communities like the Ahmadiyya Muslim community keep that beacon shining bright.
