Don't be racist when judging racist actors, because that means judging racist too.

 Peaceful Coexistence For All Religions in Africa and the World

Press Statement of Dr. Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma di Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, March 3, 2014 :
"This senseless killing of innocent civilians must stop"




Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma has expressed her anger at the continued acts of barbarism and terrorism perpetrated on innocent people by unscrupulous individuals and groups that wreak havoc in Nigeria, the Central African Republic, South Sudan, Somalia and other countries since earlier this year.
"This senseless killing of children, youth, women and other innocent civilians, even while they are asleep in school dormitories, in recovery in hospitals or in places of worship and relaxation, must stop."




In a message of goodwill delivered in Abuja during Nigeria's centenary celebrations in February, the AUC Chair recalled the continent's history of peaceful coexistence. and Christianity and Islam.” Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma's statement is very good and should be appreciated by all leaders of countries in the world, as a reference for building and strengthening relations between their citizens, and can even be developed as a basis for building relations between countries/nations. Although some people might think of it as a "cliché", because there have been so many leadership figures who also sound like that. The fact continues to happen in many countries/nations/religions/races. But it must be repeated, voiced and fought for. For the sake of unity and harmony of nations in the world. Keep speaking.



Especially with regard to Islam, this paper may be of little help to better understand correctly, according to sharia (recorded in the Quran and Hadith). As well as for study material, that "if someone does evil, is it a religious teaching, or is it just the act of someone who doesn't understand his religion, or in the name of religion, or is playing with his religion, or there are certain parties behind it for political purposes/colonialism/economy/party/etc".


In Islam it is clearly written PROHIBITED TO BE RACIST, here are the proofs:

From the Qur'an:
One of the signs of His power is that He created you from clay, so—look!—you are human beings scattered on the earth˺ (Ar-Rum: 20)
And among His signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth and your different languages and the color of your skin. Verily in that are signs for those who know. (Ar-Rum: 22)
O people! Verily We created you from a male and a female and made you into nations and tribes so that you might know one another. Verily, the most honorable of you in the sight of Allah is the most pious of you. Allah is All-Knowing, All-Knowing. (Al Hujurat: 13)

From the hadith:
Verily, you are not better than those with red or black skin unless you surpass them in piety. (Hadith narrated: Ahmad 5 no. 158)
From Abu Hurairah, he said, The Messenger of Allah said, "Indeed, Allah does not look at your appearance and wealth. But what Allah sees is your heart and your deeds." (Reported Hadith: Muslim no. 2564)
It was narrated from Abu Nadhrah that someone who heard the Prophet's sermon in the middle of the day Tasyriq said: "O mankind! Your Rabb is one, and your father is one (meaning Prophet Adam). Remember. There is no advantage for the Arabs over the Ajam (non-Arabs). Arabs) and for the Ajam people over the Arabs, there is no advantage for a red person over a black person, for a black person over a red person except by piety. Did I tell you? They replied: Yes, it is true that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said ." (Hadith narrated: Ahmad no. 22391)




In Islam it is clearly written PROHIBITED TO FORCING RELIGION, here are the proofs:

"For you your religion and to me mine." (Quran - Al Kafirun: 6)
"There is no compulsion to (enter) the religion (Islam); it is clear that the right path is clear from the misguided path." (Quran - Al Baqarah: 256)




In Islam it is clearly written PROHIBITED TO MUTILATE ENEMIES, TORTURE PRISONERS OF WAR, DAMAGE FACILITIES OF WORSHIP, PROHIBITED TO KILL WOMEN/CHILDREN/PARENTS, PROHIBITED TO DAMAGE PLANT/TREES/LIVESTOCK, etc.
EVEN IN A WAR SITUATION, here's the proof:

"And if there were no rebuke/prohibition of Allah against some people by others, then the monasteries and Christian churches and Jewish houses of worship and mosques in which the name of Allah was mentioned a lot will be destroyed." (Quran - Al-Hajj : 41)

"And fight in the way of Allah those who fight you, but do not transgress. Verily, Allah does not love those who transgress.” (Quran - Al Baqarah: 191)

“But, if they stop (fighting you), You have no enmity except against the wrongdoers." (Quran - Al Baqarah: 194)

"And those who desire a certificate of freedom from slavery from what is in your right hand, then write for them (a certificate of freedom from slavery), if you know of any good in them, and give them of the treasure of Allah which He has given you. ” (Quran - An Nūr: 34)

“And, if you decide to punish, then punish them according to the wrong done to you. But if you are patient, then indeed that is better for those who are patient." (Quran - An Nahl: 127)

"The Messenger of Allah willed the warlord or army, the first one so that he and his troops fear Allah. Among what he said was "...do not kill children..." (Hadith narrated: Muslim no. 1731).

"Do not kill old people, children, and women ..." (Hadith narrated: Abu Dawud no. 2614, Ibn Abi Syaibah 6 no. 438, and al-Baihaqi in Sunan al-Kubra no. 17932).

"Fight in the name of Allah and in the way of Allah. Fight those who disbelieve in Allah. Fight, don't overdo it (in killing). Don't run from the battlefield, don't mutilate, don't kill children, women, old people, and monks in their places of worship." (Hadith narrated: Muslim no.1731, Abu Dawud no.2613, at-Tirmidhi no.1408, and al-Baihaqi no.17935).

"Never cut down date palms, don't burn them, don't kill livestock, don't cut down fruit trees, don't tear down buildings..." (Hadith narrated by al-Baihaqi in Sunanul Kubra 17904, Ibn Asakir in Dimasyq 2 /75, and ath-Thahawi in Syarah Musykilul Atsar 3/144).

"A non-Muslim whose blood is guaranteed (promised not to be fought), then (a Muslim) kills him, then I am free from the killer. Even though what he killed was a non-Muslim.” (Hadith narrated: al-Bukhari 3/322).

“O Muslims, go in the name of Allah, and fight for the sake of Allah. Do not steal loot, and do not deceive your enemies. Do not mutilate dead enemies or kill women or children or monks or priests or the elderly. Always try to improve people's welfare and be generous to them. Allah loves generosity.” Sayidina Abu Bakr r.a. used to say: “Do not disturb those who worship God, and also those who are devoted; do not cut trees that bear fruit or damage densely populated areas.”

As for the teachings of other religions, it is better to consult their respective experts. In the teachings of other religions, it is ALSO GOOD, anti-racist, anti-terror, anti-extreme, anti-radical. Because God will not teach to do evil to His human creation, there is not a single prophet in history that gives an example of evil, and there is not a single scripture that teaches enmity.



Message: Don't be racist when judging racist actors, because that means judging racist too.
