Why
I saw on a wall, in the street of religion
an inscription which Reads
"So when you meet
those who disbelieve,
smite necks
till when you have killed and wounded many of them,
bind a bond firmly
thereafter either for generosity
or ransom
until the wars lays down its burden.
thus ordered by Allah to continue in carrying out Jihard
against the disbelievers.
till they embrace Islam
and are saved from punishment
in the Hell-fire.
but if it had been Allah's will,
he himself could certainly have punished them "
When i was done with reading the epitaph
I said to myself
Why?
