Murdered by Axe blows for failing to convert to Islam! Rashid Masih (RIP)



I was sent this link to a story on the Persecution Times:

Muslims Murder Pakistani Christian with Axe Blows For Refusing to Convert to Islam

March 22nd, 2010 By Dan Wooding, Founder of ASSIST Ministries


MIAN CHANNU, PAKISTAN (ANS) – Compass Direct News (CDN) is reporting that six Muslims in Khanewal district in the southern Punjab Province of Pakistan, killed a Christian with multiple axe blows for refusing to convert to Islam this month, according to family and police sources.

The CDN story says, “The six men had threatened to kill 36-year-old Rasheed Masih unless he converted to Islam when they grew resentful of his potato business succeeding beyond their own, according to Masih’s younger brother Munir Asi and a local clergyman.
“The rival merchants allegedly killed him after luring him to their farmhouse on March 9, leaving him on a roadside near Kothi Nand Singh village in the wee hours of the next day.”

The Rev. Iqbal Masih of the Mian Channu Parish of the Church of Pakistan told Compass Direct that Rasheed Masih was a “devoted Christian,” and that both he and his brother Asi had “refused the Muslims’ pressure to convert to Islam.”

Mian Channu police have registered a case against the six men and an investigation is underway, but the suspects are still at large, police officers told Compass.

Police said the suspects were Ghulam Rasool, Muhammad Asif, Muhammad Amjad, one identified only as Kashif and two other unidentified Muslims; they were charged with torture and murder. Masih’s family lives in Babo John Colony, Mian Channu of Khanewal district.

“Our continuous denial to recant our faith and convert gradually turned into enmity,” Asi told Compass. The FIR [First Information Report] states, “Both the Muslim men [Rasool and Asif] were not only inviting them to Islam but hurling threats of dire consequences and death on them for the last six months in case they refused to convert.”

Note: The name “Masih,” which is Arabic for “Messiah,” is a common surname in Pakistan among Christians.)

  1. Silly Christian should have denounced their false polytheism for glorious Islam. Allahu Akbar. La illaha illa Allah. Praise be to my brethren for the decimation of one more zalimoon!

    1. The Blood of Gods Children is on your hands. You will think of this day, while you are "weeping and gnashing your teeth" for eternity. You will be the "Object" of the wrath of Satan for you dared to worship the God that something other than him, and you have been "set up" to be "owned" by him. May God have mercy on your soul.

  2. Dear Glory to Islam you are showing your naivety by decalring Christianity to be a polytheism. We are an established and well know monotheism that has been in existence well before the Islamic faith.

  3. Islam does not allow any muslim to FORCE a non believer to convert to Islam. That is the principle and it is final. Any one who acts against the spirit of Islam and commits a crime is not acceptable for muslims too. You can not condemn or label the entire muslim world for the folly of an individual or even a group. Can you ? if that be so, I can give many examples whereby condemning christians but would that be just either ?

    So I repeat my often repeated advice to you that you are not creating harmony but blowing up discord amongst the muslims and christians of Pakistan. Thus not serving the christians either., rather creating difficulties for them in the future, un-necessarily.
    Place it on your blog for others to read it too.

  12. seems like the expected thing during these times.It starts with peace and unity conservation.Then when extremist(wrong term i guess.i was told by a muslim there are no extreme muslims.only faithful to the koran.hating and loving who the koran tells them to.) decides either you convert or die.

  13. I'd like to know what Mohamed would say to such behavior. I don't believe this would please Him. I think people who are truly commited to their God be it Christian or Muslim would follow the teachings of their religin, so where in the Karan does it say to murder people who pratice other religins

  14. I believe that the Christ
    Who was slain on the cross
    Has the power to change lives today
    For He changed me completely
    A new life is mine
    And that is why by the cross
    I will stay

    I believe in a hill called mount Calvary
    I believe whatever the cost
    And when time has surrendered
    And earth is no more
    I'll still cling to the old rugged cross

  17. In reply to all those who said that islam does not force to convert, please read your book coz it is pretty clear when you read the koran. I've read it for myself. Only true and faithfull muslim will declare without shame what the book teach them: kill the infidele so that you can go straight to heaven.

    It does not matter if the Christians remain silent, these things will continue to happen as they always have happened to Christians at the hands of muslims. Therefore, there is nothing to lose and everything to possibly gain by telling the truth.

    I believe you are more worried about the way the rest of the world will view your country and islam, rather than how a blog like this or stories like this will help or hurt Christians and your attitude is typical. '''Oh you are doing no good, so better just be quiet.'''

    Fake 'good advice' when your real agenda is simply to silence them.

    Christians were 20% of the population of Pakistan not that long ago. Now they make up 1.69% only. At this rate, they will be annihilated anyway, so why shouldn't the tell the world how you murderous animals treat their fellow human being.

    I assure you all that these stories are true, and I have found many within the PakNews media as well. Common for 10 to 15 yr old girls to be kidnapped by muslims, force married then force converted to Islam. They also do it to Sikhs, and Hindu girls. This is well known by the entire world, so denying it shows either your ignorance or your lies.

    If you are against this behavior, then stop showing up outside the courthouse to support the kidnapping force marrying rapists.

  20. Peace in the Middle East will be only if both Jews and Muslim convert to Christianity. Jesus is the only salvation, the Son of everliving God. The Glory to God and Peace to all people of good will. Jesus is born in Betlehem and had no political power behind yet it is the strongest Church on this planet and even Gater of Hell (Islam) will not prevail.

  21. Those that live Godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
    These things foretold and as the time draws nearer for the Lord to return they will grow ever more so.
    Fear not those who can kill the body but rather fear him who can cast your soul into hell.
    Every man will have to answer for HIS actions before the one true GOD and it will be no good saying my RELIGION TOLD ME TO DO IT.
    The Kingdom of GOD was preach from the time of Christ and that is not religion.
    Keep strong in the faith brothers and sisters it is you fathers good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
