SikhNet joins the world-community in condemning the tragic and brutal hate crimes unleashed at the Mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand on Friday last, the Muslims' holy day of prayer. Our hearts and prayer go out to families torn apart by this senseless violence. We support people of faith everywhere, and stand with our brothers and sisters in the love of the One God. Now is the time for unity, cooperation and loving support for the families in Christchurch who are grieving. We support the New Zealand Council of Victim Support Groups and urge that you give generously to their crowdfunding campaign which has been vetted by CNN.
ਜਗਤੁ ਜਲੰਦਾ ਰਖਿ ਲੈ ਆਪਣੀ ਕਿਰਪਾ ਧਾਰਿ ॥
jagat jalandaa rakh lai aapnee kirpaa Dhaar.
“This world is burning on fire. O God, be merciful and save all those whoever comes out from any passage, means through different religions and faiths.”
