Leave the wrong path

The ISIL does not surely follow the principles of war in Islam and code of conduct in dealing with the prisoners of war (PW). It is because the organisation’s leaders and the fighters themselves do not practise the Quran, and the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (SM).
It is reported by an English daily that the leader of the Paris attacks has never visited a mosque for prayers in his lifetime. If it is true, then who are misguiding and financing them to kill innocent Muslims and non-Muslims in the Middle East and Europe?
It is for sure, they are on the right track not. If is also advisable that they should better return to the life as explained and practised by the Prophet.

Quota for SA in the Asia Cup

I endorse the view of Abid Hossain about the merit of the quota system in the Asia Cup Football. Since the South Asian nations are unable to sail into the final round of the continental cup for lack of shooting power and physical limitation, the quota system will instill new hopes in the region’s football playing nations. If the federations of the eight soccer playing nations appeal to the AFC and get positive result, the countries like Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India and Nepal will give more time to soccer.
Will the BFF take up the issue with other SAFF members?
