Global Unity Network members attend Sunday service at St Joseph’s Church in Sentul on April 28, 2019.: Following the deadly terrorist attack at multiple churches and hotels in Sri Lanka on April 21, a Muslim group showed solidarity in the best way possible – by visiting a church themselves.
Led by its president Shah Kirit Kakulal Govindji, the group of about 25 Muslim professionals and students visited the church to show their support for Catholics in the country and around the world, amidst heightened security.Unity, which has been doing interfaith work for about two decades by reaching out to educate Muslims about other religions to promote unity, also visited Hindu and Buddhist temples in the city centre today.
The Easter Sunday attack in Sri Lanka had killed at least 350 people, while injuring hundreds of others. The Islamic State has claimed responsibilities for the attacks, with the Sri Lankan government claiming the bombers might have been acting in revenge to the mass shooting in Christchurch.
Hadi. Show us u care. Sigh.
Muslims need to do more to stop terrorism, or they will forever be the target of objectification.
