From the Fort Worth Star-Telegram:

"[T]he family was Muslim but celebrated Christmas as a cultural holiday. The parents were originally from Iran."

Dallas News reports:

Neighbors said the family was Muslim

but had always hung Christmas lights on their home — except this year.
The dad disapproved of a daughter's boyfriend.

The comments on this thread show, as you correctly point out, how stupid and ignorant some people on FR are. I wish JimRob would expel people from this board based on stupid comments.

I live in a suburb that borders Grapevine. This has nothing to do with religion. They were all Christians.

This had to do with Bankruptcy. Father got bankrupt, their VERY upscale home in Colleyville (a rich suburb) got foreclosed and he had to move to a crappy apartment in Grapevine (a lower middle class suburb), then he got divorced, his life was spiralling out of control and now he decided that better to be happy in the Eternal Kingdom of God than suffer poverty and hardship on Earth

Joke’s on him though. He will burn in Hell for this. As for the rest of family, they are all in God’s lap right now being given eternal love.

Seeing the pictures of what clearly are just normal kids who are now dead breaks my heart. Many of the comments on this thread are an embarrassment to FR and to human beings in general.

I agree with your thoughts stated here completely. Amen.

Me too. Gotta wonder what the heck is wrong with some of the people that post on FR.

In an earlier article I read that “the daughter was dating someone that her father did not know about”..
This certainly would not be the first honor killing in the Dallas area.

Aziz Yazdanpanah

Based on the name, he must be a right wing, Christian, Tea Party, gun toting, homophobe who listens to Rush.

Or not...

Maybe the killer objected to them celebrating Christmas. Isn’t it considered ‘haram’?

Yet another example of people who should never have been admitted to this country.

Thackney,

That may be the case. I too am confused. I live in a suburb bordering Grapevine and I have friends who have gone to the Spa where the mom worked and used to chit chat to her while waiting. They told me that she was an Iranian Catholic (a rare breed)

But now this guy says they were Muslim. I guess we will all find out.

But in the end, the dad did not like that his life spiralled out of control. The bankruptcy and the impending divorce and allegedly the daughter’s stalker boyfriend all pulled him over the edge.

He will burn in hell for sure. His family is with God surrounded by Love and Eternal Peace

Look like a nice group of kids. Unfortunate victims of somebody else’s mental illness.

Some do celebrate Christmas. Jesus is considered a Prophet in the Muslim faith, I’m told. I’ve been to more than one Christmas Party at a Muslim home, complete with lighted Christmas tree.
