Seminary set ablaze in Lodhran
2006-04-20
MULTAN: Unidentified people on Tuesday set a religious seminary ablaze in Kehror Pucca in Lodhran district, around 90 kilometres southeast of Multan, police said. Students' clothes, furniture, copies of the Quran and books were reduced to ashes in the fire. However, there was no loss of life since the students were out of town. People protested and demanded the immediate arrest of the arsonists. The seminary, Madrassa Hashmia Saadia Mehrvia Anwar-i-Mustafa, follows the Barelvi school of thought.
Interesting. And the Sunni Tehrik leadership was just wiped out...

#2  Since they are muslim isn't it allens will? Since they are such good muslims why don't they just submit to it instead of setteling scores and the like?

It may have just been an actual accidental fire.

#1  Where do the Barelvi fit on the Muslim psychosis scale? As I understand it the Tehrik were pretty far down toward the sane end? Just trying to figure whether a single more radical group is trying to whack a bunch of different, more moderate groups, or if one group may be trying to avenge its treatment at the hands of another.
