Religious Genocide: A Case Study of Kashmir, Palestine and Rohingya’s Muslims

Abstract

It is a common misconception among nations that religion teaches to massacre its followers, but after an in-depth study of the literature, it is found that religion itself does not teach harm to humanity, but the foundations of all religions teach peace and resect to humanity. Every religious book, in context of its originality, has no clue to annihilate others but urges people to change their beliefs with peace and love. The Old Testament of the Bible did not command the killing of humanity; however the New Testament of the Bible has clear instructions for the Jews to kill the ‘Amālīq’s to understand better them. By force they are committing all kinds of crimes there, they are brutally killing Palestinians. In Kashmir, Hindus are doing their worst, attacking the homes of innocent Kashmiris and killing their men, killing in front of their children ۔In Kashmir, Muslims cannot perform their religious rites or even perform their funeral prayers freely. Likewise, Buddhists in Burma are committing religious genocide and killing innocent Muslims. The Rohingian Muslims are not safe in Myanmar. They have no right to education. Their educated people were the first victims of oppression. Whereas, the religious literature of Hinduism and Buddhism have ample instructions about the concept of ‘’Ahimsa and Ahinsa’’ meaning nonviolence. It proves, if a believer does something contrary to his religious teachings, it does not mean that his religion is a bad religion or his religion teaches him violence, rather there can be many other factors behind this criminal approach. This article covers the perspective of religious genocide in Kashmir, Palestine and Burma.
