	Targeting the Ahmadiyyas - The Dhaka Courier
		The khatib of Baitul Mukarram, the national mosque, has now made his position clear.
		It is morally indefensible that men who try to plunge the country into religious or communal disorder should be at the helm of such important bodies or places of worship as Baitul Mukarram.
		What the khatib has done is to send out the very wrong message that a mosque, a place where the glory of the Almighty is praised and His blessings sought, can at the whims of individuals be turned into a platform for religious and political chaos.
