It Is Wrong To Equate Islam With Violence -pope Francis by Monzuur(m): 6:56am On Dec 03, 2014
Pope Francis said that equating Islam with
violence was wrong and called on Muslim
leaders to issue a global condemnation of
terrorism to help dispel the notion.
He told reporters aboard his plane
returning from a visit to Turkey that he
understood why Muslims were offended by
many in the West who automatically
equated their religion with terrorism. He
said
“You just can’t say that, just as you
can’t say that all Christians are
fundamentalists. We have our share of
them (fundamentalists).All religions
have these little groups. They (Muslims)
say: “No, we are not this, the Koran is
a book of peace, it is a prophetic book
of peace”.’
‘I told the president (Turkey)that it
would be beautiful if all Islamic leaders,
whether they are political, religious or
academic leaders, would speak out
clearly and condemn this because this
would help the majority of Muslim
people,’ he said.
