Riots in London?

Seeking Allah's Mercy

Qul HuwaAllahu Ahud!
Asalmaolaikom wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuhu. . .

I just saw some angry and fiery clips on the news, but missed how it started

So London dwellers! What's going on? What are these riots all about?

Jazakallah khair!

Yeah,I read in the newspaper about it and internet,it was triggered after a black guy was shot dead by police who claimed that he was firing at them.It has spread to Birmingham.
Wallahu 'alam.
May peace prevail.

that incident of the shooting did not trigger full scale riots,,,there was a peaceful protest after the shooting,,,but these riots were obviously planned and once started the idea quickly spread by social media..they are not ding it in protest ..but mindless violence..there are children as young as 10 or 11 involved..where are their parents???

A Waterstone's employee said, "We'll stay open, if they steal some books they might learn something". Lol. I think these riots are ridiculous. The cause just can't be frustration or anger (for the most part), only opportunism. Because you know.. Did any of you see this one guy who looted Tesco for basmati rice? Lol.

they started when a black man was shot head dead by police. he was accused to have shot at police which later on was confirmed negative. years of neglect,no jobs, discrimination, no social programs for young blacks and hate of police are the main causes of the riots. the social unrest was building for years. those young guys have nothing to loose so they know they can do whatever they want. a sign of frustration and anger towards British politics. i wonder if they can prevent it from happening again.

Bad economy, unemployment, dissatisfaction with the government...

...sounds a lot like things here in the USA, but people here are too scared of the government to do anything like what is going on in the UK.

You watch though; Muslims will be blamed for this, if they haven't been already.

I think this is one of the greatest similarity between the people of Pakistan and US. Too scared to spell the word correctly!

I am worried about this one.

Actually I came across a few posts and comments over the internet blaming the "Pakis" for the riots, and a few posters equating rioters to bearded muslim protesters.That is totally idiotic assumptions being made tbh.

It's just a bunch of Chavs and ASBO'S that have used the excuse what happened in tottenham to go on a "Shopping spree" I mean first off I see them robbing a sports shop JD sports and that made me laugh because all chavs love their sports gear and Nike hoodie.

Thanks for the info.Yeah I saw a few photos of youths dressed in hoodies and faces covered carrying things from the shop some of which included large television sets and whatnot.Some people just need an excuse to steal things and create ruckus.Wow!Hope the situation calms down soon,inshaAllah.

sdly three people were killed in these riots..muslims who had left a mosque ..were run down by a car/////////
just imagine that one muslim had been involved had destroyed one shop or home..the whole country would have been up in arms....because they want to blame muslims for everything..but these hooligans get aaway with it,,,,and the police onyly consider water cannons or tear gas,,,god only help them if they lived in an arab country,,,

Exactly. If this was a bunch of Muslims doing all of this, the whole country would be calling for the army to step in and declare martial law and for Islam to be banned. You know they would...

There is no hope now of the US government ever cutting spending after seeing what's going on the UK right now. We will continue to spiral further into debt, I fear. Eventually we too may see our own version of the UK riots...

Its the stupid Kuffar causing trouble everywhere. Stealing, looting without any remorse. They killed three Muslims and mercilessly robbed a Malaysian brother too.

But the Sikhs (may Allah guide them) protected the masjid while the Muslims were praying Taraweeh.

Father of the dead Muslims speaks:

and this is the Video where the Malysian Muslim bro gets brutally assaulted but the Scums still steal from him

^These people died protecting a Mosque. May Allah(swt) grant them PARADISE.


[yt]6Gex_ya4-Oo[/yt]

^WOW, they help him up..then mug him.. That is just disgusting. And the police have to stop being so tolerant about this.

Just letting people know info about the boy -

- He's a exchange student, on his first year. He only came to the country 1 month ago.
- He's from Malaysia and is a Muslim.
- He was on his way to open iftar (Fasting) at his friends house.

His bike got stolen (his friend who was with him escaped), and the boy got punched or hit with an object.

As he is on the ground (as you see on the video) he got helped back up, only to be robbed again. This time they robbed his Sony PSP and they stole his food he was going to use to open IFTAR.

Right now he's in hospital with serious injuries, including a broken jaw.

Makes me very angry, May Allah(swt) give him a quick and full recovery Inshallah and bring those responsible to justice both in this world and in the hereafter.

I heard there's a website thats dedicated to helping the guy, like their thinking of donating money so his parents can come and see him from Malaysia. Also the company SONY has said they will replace his stolen PSP with a new one.

However those responsible are still out on the loose.
