The Evangelical Lutheran Church, Mbagala Parish on fire set by furious Muslims
On Friday of 12th Oct,2012, five churches along with other properties, were destroyed by furious Muslims at Mbagala surbub, Temeke District, in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, following the protesting of the defilement by urinating on the holy Quran done by the alledged 14 yrs Christian boy. 11 cars were also destroyed
The churches include Catholic Church at Mbagala Zakhem, The Evangelical Lutheran Church, Mbagala Parish, The Seventh Day Adventist Church, Tanzania Assemblies of God, The Anglican Church Mbagala Parish.
The sources of the incident is the argument between the Christian boy and a 10 yrs Muslim boy over the power of the Quran to turn anyone who defiles into snake. The Christian boy swore he would not be harmed if he played with the Quran while his Muslim friend maintained that he would turn into a snake or run mad if he would do so.
The christian boy then urinated on the book.As he was doing so the Muslim man arrived and asked the boys why they were doing so. The old man and other people took the Christian boy to his home and handed him to his mother and told her what he had done. His mother responded that she would give them money to buy another Quran, the statement that angered the group which vowed to deal with the child.
The group then took the boy to the chairman of Chamazi local government where they secured a letter to take the boy to the police post for further questioning.Muslim mobilized more support during Friday prayers attempting to grab the boy from Police and beheaded him
This is the second similar incident within 10 months which involve the arguments over the power of the Quran.But all the time the Christian side becomes the victim leaving out Muslims who bring the Quran into the argument. Eva Mohammed, 19 yrs, on 32rd July 2012, was imprisonment for two years at Bagamoyo being accused of urinating on the Quran brought by Ibrahim. Ibrahim is not arrested so far, so does the Muslim boy who brought the Quran to the Christian boy.
The Christian community asks: Is this one among the many tricks to eradicate what fundamentalist Muslims call "Christendom in the land"? For how long will the churches be burnt?
Pray for the Christian boy who still in the hands of Police that may God pave the way out of this hard situation and for the entire Church of Tanzania.

KONDOA MUSLIMS PROTEST: "COMPASSION INTERNATIONAL GET OUT OF KONDOA ISLAMIC TERRITORY"
Radical Muslims at Pahi, Kondoa District, Dodoma region in Tanzania, have started protesting the projects run by the Compassion International which aimed at promoting the livelihood of the Rangi people.
The project include providing human needs including schooling materials and health services for the Rangi children whose parents live in an abject poverty. Kondoa is a 95% Muslim dominated area.
Sheikh Mohammed Issa, one of the prominent fundamentalist Muslim leaders, went there in November 24,2012 to attend the graduation of the Iqra English Medium School run by Pahi Islamic Centre and noticed that the services provided by the Compassion International have had positive impact in improving the livelihood of many Muslims. This made him furious and vow to deal with the organization.
The weekly Muslim fundamentalists' newspaper "AN-NUUR" No.1047 of Nov 30-Dec 6,2012 has reported about the hatred of fundamentalist Muslims against any Un-Islamic organization, as they call this is a catastrophe to the Islamic movements.
Fundamentalist Muslims in recent days, have destroyed the Christians churches and torching many other to protect what they call to eradicate Christianity hegemony in the land. Tanzania is a secular state constitutionally.
