Dr. Nājih Ibrāhīm writes about the recent massacre carried out by terrorist group al-Qā‘idah at the Sayyidat al-Najāh church in Baghdad, claiming it to be the first attack on a place of worship by Muslims in history. He says that Islam teaches tolerance of all Abrahamic religions and the protection of their places of worship. He then goes on to explain how al-Qā‘idah is in violation of Islamic Sharī‘ah.
