John, where are you?

Mohsen Renani

I wrote this note a few days after the tragedy of the attack on Kabul University, but I was afraid that the claim I made was not true. So I waited until all the reactions were done to put my claim to the test and now it’s time to publish it.

Once again, blind ideology targeted the heart of science and knowledge. This is neither the first time nor the last time that religious fanaticism and the ideology created by religion have created a disaster. The crimes committed by ISIS in the name of religion in Syria and Iraq are still burning in our hearts when suddenly we hear that this group killed tens of students and tens of future capitals of their country in an attack on Kabul University. This is a warning to all those who recklessly try to turn religion into an ideological tool. Ideologicalizing religious beliefs contaminates the merciful nature of religion for evil purposes and pulls religion from the safe path of faith to the passage of evil winds.

This pen expresses the shame and sadness of the scourge of fundamentalism that has befallen the lives of Islamic societies, and while expressing condolences to the friendly nation, neighbors and fellow speakers of Afghanistan, especially the professors of Kabul University and the bereaved families of those dear ones, to emphasize that everyone who has a hand in the bosom of the scholars of the world Islam is pleading with them to make this request to their ears: “O scholars of the Islamic world, Sunnis and Shiites, we expect you to condemn this inhumane, un-Islamic and immoral act.” The attack on Kabul University is a symbol for an ideology. It is a shame that none of the prominent muftis of Sunnis and Shiite taqlid authorities have yet condemned this attack, whose victims were from both religions of Islam, and have not reacted to this inhuman act.

Hashtag that these days with the title “John, where are you?” It is circulating widely on virtual networks, although it refers to the message full of love and concern of the father of one of the students killed in the attack on Kabul University, but it also implicitly addresses those who should have a fatherly position for the Islamic society. : Where are the sad fathers of Muslim nations? Why don’t they say anything? Why don’t they react? If these crimes are condemned in the religion of Islam, why do the key holders of the religion hold their tongues and do not tear their necks? And if it is approved, why don’t they put aside Rudarabaisti and explain the task of wandering mood?

The Friday imam who a few weeks ago saw his religion as destroyed by publishing a clip of a girl riding a bicycle and brought people to the street to condemn it, it is our duty to clarify that between throwing acid on the faces of Isfahan women in the name of defending the hijab and Attacking Afghan students in the name of fighting corrupt Western science is there a difference or not? Let them say that there is a difference between ISIS’s order to name universities that promote Western science and Imam Juma’i’s order that you should name the society for those who wear hijabs or not?

Of course, we all know the answer, what we don’t know is why the guardians of religion are so afraid to say it?

Trump or Biden? This is not the problem at all! The problem right here is under our trust and the claimants of our society!!
