Crystal Cave : ACT OF COMPASSION    
 ACT OF COMPASSION3 comments

It was broadcast this morning on Sky UK (and widely reported in the press) that British Muslims are sending a negotiating team to Iraq to negotiate for the release of the British captive Kenneth Bigley. Let us pray that they are successful and that they receive the support (so deserved) from the British public.

The Muslim Council of Britain said it was sending Daud Abdullah and Musharraf Hussain, whom it described as "well-respected figures in the British Muslim community," to Baghdad for talks to try to win Bigley's freedom. The council, an umbrella group of British Muslim organizations, said it would leave for Baghdad "very shortly," but did not specify when.

It takes courage and guts to stand up and be counted and to make such a public ‘statement’ (by their actions) in saying we do not support this barbarism. This is not the behaviour of faithful and decent Muslims.

Let us wish them success and send them our love.

I dearly hope they won't be sacrificing their lives while trying to do this. I pray it works out well and more people follow.

I as well, but perhaps this is the course their souls have chosen as part of their life lesson. No greater gift we can give than to lay down our life in save another...

Peace..
