BAKAR QURAN: RESPON AHMADINEJAD

Berikutan hebah isu satu dunia pasal Al-Quran nak dibakar di gereja kecil di Florida (sempena ulang tahun 9/11), banyak pihak menyelar tindakan itu. Tapi, sebagai respon kepada tindakan tersebut, adakah membakar Bible dimasukkan dalam senarai? Orang yang waras pastinya boleh berfikir.

Dan ini petikan ucapan Ahmadinejad dalam Sidang PBB pada 24 September lepas menyentuh isu bakar Quran ini. Quran adalah kebenaran, kebenaran tidak mungkin dapat dibakar. Sebarang tindakan menjauhkan jurang antara negara, dan masyarakat adalah satu perkara yang jahat, batil lagi.

Mungkin saya boleh tunjuk dalam petikan asal ucapan beliau seperti berikut. Harap pembaca dapat berfikir dengan kritis. Dan tidak, saya tidak taksub kepada beliau.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Very recently the world witnessed the ugly and inhumane act of burning the Holy Quran.

The Holy Quran is the Divine Book and the eternal miracle of the Prophet of lslam. It calls for worshipping the One God, justice, compassion toward people, development and progress, reflection and thinking, defending the oppressed and resisting against the oppressors; and it names with respect the previous Messengers of God, like Noah, Abraham, Isaaq, Joseph, Moses and Jesus Christ (Peace be Upon them all) and endorses them.. They burned Quran to bum all these truths and good judgments. However, the truth could not be burned. Quran is eternal because God and truth are everlasting. This act and any other act which widens the gap and distances between nations is evil. We should wisely avoid playing into the hands of Satan. On behalf o f the Iranian nation I pay respect to all Divine Books and their followers. This is the Quran and this is the Bible. I pay respect to both o f them.
