A Religion Of Peace?

Need more proof that the religion of Islam is a religion of hatred, violence, and oppression? Just ask Muhammad Parvez, a 57-year old Canadian Muslim, who is accused of killing his 16-year-old daughter for not wearing her traditional religious head scarf. According to this ABC News article:

Authorities said cabdriver Muhammad Parvez admitting killing 16-year-old Agsa Parvez. The teenager died Tuesday in a Toronto suburb.

Agsa’s older brother also will appear in court today because police said he obstructed their investigation.

The case is grabbing international attention because Agsa’s friends believe her defiance and clash over Western culture with her father may have contributed to her death.

Agsa disagreed with her father about whether she should wear the traditional Muslim head scarf called a hijab.

Update: Lest anyone believe that Mr. Parvez is not representative of the Muslim culture, and that this incident should simply be treated as an instance of extreme domestic violence, pay attention to these words from top Muslim cleric in Iran, Hojatolislam Gholam Reza Hassani:

“Women who do not respect the hijab and their husbands deserve to die,” said Hassani, who leads Friday prayers in the city of Urumieh, in Iranian Azerbaijan.

“I do not understand how these women who do not respect the hijab, 28 years after the birth of the Islamic Republic, are still alive,” he said.

“These women and their husbands and their fathers must die,” said Hassani, who is the representative of the Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei in eastern Azerbaijan.
