The man accused of murdering Glasgow shopkeeper Asad Shah has issued a statement saying he carried out the killing because he believed Mr Shah had "disrespected" Islam. Tanveer Ahmed, 32, from Bradford, is accused of killing Mr Shah outside his shop in Glasgow almost a fortnight ago. In the statement he denied the incident had anything to do with Christianity. Mr Ahmed claimed Asad Shah had "disrespected" Islam by claiming to be a prophet. The shopkeeper, an Ahmadi Muslim, who had moved from Pakistan to Glasgow almost 20 years ago, was found with serious injuries outside his shop on Minard Road in Shawlands on 24 March. He was pronounced dead in hospital. Mr Shah was killed just hours after he posted an Easter message on Facebook to his customers. The message said: "Good Friday and a very happy Easter, especially to my beloved Christian nationx"

By all accounts the shopkeeper was a decent fellow who was killed for wishing his Christian customers a Happy Easter. Very sad.

The people themselves, in all of these European countries where they have invited Islamic in by the hundreds of thousands better wake up and reverse course.

2/3rd of the Germans have figured it out and want their borders closed to these people now...an for good reasons with their women being raped in the streets and Islamic men committing sex acts on under age boys in swimming pools.

This man who was killed, was apparently a decent fellow who was Islamic and who had been in England for 20 years and was happy to be in a Christian country away from the maniac Jihadist, was killed because he was friendly to Christians and therefore disrespected Islam.

They are going to see a lot more of this type of thing before it ever has a hope of getting better.

we must STAND RESOLUTELY in this country and keep it from coming here in these numbers. There are certain areas in Michigan and elsewhere where they have already brought in far too many and are having similar troubles.

That act likely made him an apostate in the eyes of the killer.

I’m starting to wonder why there isn’t a mass exodus from Islam within Middle Eastern communities considering how mafia like that religious club is.

I pray this man found Jesus in his final minutes here.

I think if you convert from Islam it’s a death sentence.

It is a death sentence for their religion.

I’d rather be killed for that decision and spend eternity with Christ than be sent to Hell.

To follow Christ is really the most important decision one will ever makes as it has eternal consequences.

Oh, well as long as it was to defend the religion of peace I guess it’s OK, especially since Mr. Shah was committing the vile and heinous act of wishing Christians a Happy Easter.

A fundamental Muslim like a Wahhabi would see his coziness with us Kafirs as an affront to Allah and he should be killed if he calls himself a Muslim.

The Koran forbids making friends with non- Muslims in at least 3 Chapters.
Ch5 line 51 being the most commonly cited verse in this regard.

Ahmadiyya are banned by the constitution of Pakistan from referring to themselves as Muslims.

I'd say Pakistan got that right. -Tom

Bernard Lewis has written some great books about Islam that are very understandable and readable...one of the things he discussed was how infidels were low forms of life, but apostates (those who once believed in Allah, but no longer do) have a special circle of Hell reserved for them, and are to be pursued and disposed of with prejudice.

See my post at #12. They are quite harsh. Infidels can live as 2nd class citizens, pay a kaffir fine, and all that.

Apostates are to be hunted down and eliminated. No mercy there.
