Al Qaeda In Iraq's Attack Contradicts Islamic Teachings
By: Farhad Rana

Al Qaeda has struck a church in Iraq killing 60 Christian worshippers. As an Ahmadi Muslim, I am shocked to see such acts in the name of religion. The truth is such people wholly contradict Islamic teachings. For example, the Qur'an says (5:33) that killing one innocent person is equivalent to killing all of mankind.

As a member of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, I strongly condemn these attacks, and my thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families.
