God bless the OIC , because under its sponsorship yesterday a very important thing happened in order to stop the semi-civil war in Iraq between the Muslim Shiites and Sunnis
In the mother of villages Mecca ,the holiest place for all Muslims around the world ,regardless of their sects , Muslim Religious scholars and clerics from the Shiites and Sunnis gathered to reach for a truce or a peace agreement between the Iraq's largest two religious sect in order to stop the daily bloodshed in the land of the two rivers.
The idea of this meeting was the OIC "Organization of Islamic Conference" 's but the King of Saudi Arabia practiced a lot of diplomacy with each of the two sides to reach to the important document
First I must admit that whether the OIC or the Saudis , created the best place and time for the meeting
Place in Holy Mecca , Time in Ramadan ,in the last days of Ramadan
Anyway the Mecca Document came yesterday as a candle of hope to the Iraqis' endless fighting
The summary of this document is the following: "Each point or item in the document is supplemented or forced by a verses from the Holy Quran
- The Muslim is one who testifies that "No God except Allah and Mohamed "PBUH" is his messenger" and by this testimony he protected his blood,his family and his family . All The Sunnis and Shiites testify it, the common factors between the two sects are more than the differences . The difference between the two sects is more likely in the points of views and interpretative one,not in the faith nor the pillars of Islam and thus it is prohibited on both sects to heresy the other sect, and it is not religiously legal to criminalize a whole sect because of some acts by some of its followers
- The blood,money and honor of Muslims are protected , Muslims whether Sunni or Shiite should n't be killed,Kidnapped or terrorized or forced to leave his or her home or work or kidnapped some of his family relative because of his faith,and the one who does so , the Muslims all around the world ,their clerics and scholars are innocent from him
- The Worshiping places got its holiness and they are mosques, El-Hussaynats and non Islamic worshiping places like Churches and temples.Those places are not to be attacked or taken from their owners. Those places to be protected and kept in the hands of their owners and if something was taken from them ,it should be returned according to the Islamic laws
- The Crimes that happen in Iraq from genocides based upon Sect differences are from the corruption in the Land that God prohibited it in the Holy Quran , and being from a certain sect doesn't excuse the aggression even if some followers of this sect were attacking other
- Staying away from arising the difference ,sensitive points and sect , ethnic and lingual differences
- Should stick together in Unity
- working together as Islam calls from helping the helpless and standing the unjust and thus kidnappeds from the innocents and hostages from Muslims and non Muslims must be released, and those who forced to leave their homes must return back to their homes safely
- The Muslim Scholars and clerics remind the Iraqi government of its duties in protecting Iraq and its people , and working on justice and equity for all its citizens regardless of their religious or ethnic backgrounds.
- The Muslim Shiites and Sunni Clerics agree on all initiatives that want good for Iraq and its people
- The Muslim Sunnis and Shiites are all standing together to keep the independence of Iraq ,its unity, the secuirty of its lands, fulfill the free will of its people ,to contribute in building the military,economic and political capabilities , to work on ending the invasion and to return back the cultural role ,Arabic ,Islamic and human civilization role of Iraq
Fantastic is n't it ??
I just wish that this document becomes more than words on some paper, I wish that Iraqis really stick to what is mentioned in it .
Say Amen
