Stampede in Mecca kills 45 Sunday, January 15, 2006 what im about to express is just my feelings and my own opinion.there is no hatred or i have anything against Islam.i myself am a Muslim. going to Mecca is the 5th pillar of Islam.we muslims went to Mecca to do ibadah.a pilgrimage.but what happened?theres a stampede and it kills.is this called jihad??but they are not killed by enemies of Islam.did they? wat i noe is the stampede happened as the pilgrim rushing to perform 'jamrah'.as these stampede happens, some pilgrims fell down of course.but what did the other pilgrims do?just step on them and continue.what is wrong with u people?your fellow Muslim brothers or sisters fell down!!help them up!is this what Islam taught you?to step on them and continue the jamrah??of course not.Islam taught us to be helpful towards our fellow Muslim brothers and sisters.to be caring and concern towards each other.what if this happen to your own family members??i myself honestly say i will be disappointed.realli.why does this has to happen?we do ibadah together.peacefully.dun have to rush and if we saw them fell, help them up and continue with the ibadah.tats all rite?and no one gets hurt or worst die.
