A father killed his wife and four daughters in their sleep because he could not bear them adopting a more westernised lifestyle, an inquest heard yesterday.
Mohammed Riaz, 49, found it abhorrent that his eldest daughter wanted to be a fashion designer, and that she and her sisters were likely to reject the Muslim tradition of arranged marriages.
On Hallowe'en last year he sprayed petrol throughout their terraced home in Accrington, Lancs, and set it alight.

This guy moved to this country and wasn't born here himself.
He starts a new life in a western country and is then shocked when his children are influenced by the culture.

Not only a muppet but a hypocrite. As far as i'm aware he'd been drinking for days before which is banned under Islam. So he's allowed to abandon parts of this religion but his family aren't. Pfft!
I have a friend who is Muslim, she won't eat meat unless it is Halal, yet happily quaffs down bottles of Blue WKD and shots of Sambuca at the weekend. She gets plenty of grief for it ... and so she should ... :P
I'm not sure what irritates me more. Religiously devout people or people pretending to be religiously devout when it suits them. Nah it's still the former, for their sheer bloodymindedness and ignorance.
Is it okay to just pick and choose what you want to believe and do in a religion? I wondered this the other day when I was watching Bruce Almighty =) Jennifer Aniston's character seemed very religios with all that praying. But she was more than happy to have sex before marriage.
Pick and choose as being interpreting texts, yes. People do it all the time. Picking and choosing becomes ridiculous when someone contradicts themselves or hold different ideas.
