If Muslims demonstrate their loyalty to their country especially here in the West, this will send a message to Muslim extremists that their efforts to radicalize are failing and that they will never be able to defeat the West that stands for tolerance and unity.

A couple of weeks ago, another terrorist attack happened, this time in London. When an innocent person is killed, this is an attack on all of humanity.
Terrorist attacks should never be taken lightly. As a Muslim, this terrorist attack is especially horrific because it seems likely that perpetrator of the Westminster attack was motivated by his interpretation of Islam. Every Muslim should firmly stand against all forms of terrorism and publicly pledge his or her loyalty to one’s country.
If Muslims demonstrate their loyalty to their country especially here in the West, this will send a message to Muslim extremists that their efforts to radicalize are failing and that they will never be able to defeat the West that stands for tolerance and unity. This is what my community, the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is doing. At nearly every meeting at my community’s mosques, we pledge loyalty to our country of residence and this has certainly been effective- No Ahmadi Muslim has ever been indicted let alone convicted of terrorism.
