An Open Letter to the Terrorists Who Attacked Pahalgam . Major (Dr.) Mohommed Ali Shah No, this is not Jihad. Jihad means “struggle.” What you did was gunah—sin, bloodshed, and a betrayal of both humanity and God. You’ve dragged the name of Allah through the blood-soaked soil of Pahalgam. You’ve taken a religion of peace, twisted and misinterpreted it, and turned it into a weapon of terror. You shameful creatures—you will rot in hell.
I am ashamed that you and I were born into the same faith—because we are nothing alike. My religion is humanity. The Islam I know teaches me to protect the innocent. Yours glorifies slaughter. My Islam teaches me to serve my country. Yours tells you to tear it apart.
