On Jan, 04, 1990, a local Urdu newspaper, Aftab, published a press release issued by Hizb-ul-Mujahideen, asking all Kashmiri Hindu P
Pandits to leave the Valley immediately.

Kashmiri Pandits offered three choices by Radical Islamists

The letter said, âWe order you to leave Kashmir immediately, otherwise your children will be harmed- we are not scaring you but this land is only for Muslims, and is the land of Allah. Sikhs and Hindus cannot stay hereâ(TM). The threatening note ended with a warning, âIf you do not obey, we will start with your children. Kashmir Liberation, Zindabad.â1

And if you are unaware, ut was the Nazi " state" that carried out the Jewish holocaust. Di you support that? WTF?

where is your glorified state when these ethnic cleansings against Hindus are happening? Self defense is a fundamental right.

look at it with the right lens: the mosque wasnt demolished. the Hindu temple upon which the mosque was illegally built over was restored. get it right for $DEITY's sake

Further, why should I trust your 249yo theories that are causing these wirldwide anti-human problems?

Why do you think your "political theory" has to apply to the whole world?

I would rather root for a 5000+ Ancirnt living Hindu/Vedic civilization than your 249 year old untested theory.

We Hindus believe inthe philisophy of Live & Let Live. If you dont get that, sorry... welcome to my foes list.

You also do not know that the "state" you refer to were the Invading British and Islamic empires who invaded native Hindu's land until very recently, including the Congress government.

So stop spouting ignorant Islamic propaganda from your armchair.

If you attack and destroy our monuments, temples and institutions, we will defend it.

Democracy is not a spectator sport.

... over non living things.

Further, self defense against foreign invaders who do NOT understand the Hindu concept of repect for Mother Nature, Pluralism, freedom, democracy and Yoga can seek their own piece of land.

Just dont come invading our culture, misappropriating it, or raping our women.

Self defense is a human right.

the Hindu temple was destroyed by the Muslims first. tge nosque should never have been there. i am certain you woyld do the same if the Vatican was destroyed by a Muslim invader.

go back and read my other posts.

describe restorative justice in extreme detail using real world examples, e.g. the Ayodhya Hindu temple of Sri Rama, that was destroyed by Islamic Mughal invaders, the US Civil justice movemrnt against slavery etc

**Restorative justice** is a philosophy and set of practices focused on *repairing harm* caused by crime or conflict, rather than simply punishing offenders. It prioritizes the needs of victims, offenders, and the broader community, aiming for *reconciliation, healing, and the restoration of relationships* over retribution[2][8][11]. This approach is increasingly seen as a more inclusive and effective model for addressing both individual and collective wrongs.

### Principles and Methods of Restorative Justice

- **Acknowledgement of Harm:** Recognizes the full impact of harm, including damage to individuals, relationships, and the community[2].
- **Inclusion of All Parties:** Involves victims, offenders, and community members in dialogue and decision-making about how to address the harm[2].
- **Repair and Restoration:** Focuses on restitution, apologies, community service, or other actions that seek to make amends[2][11].
- **Prevention of Future Harm:** Seeks to address underlying causes and foster understanding to prevent recurrence[2].

### Real-World Examples

#### 1. **Ayodhya and the Ram Janmabhoomi Temple**

The Ayodhya dispute in India is a prominent case often described as involving elements of restorative justice, though not without controversy. The site, believed by Hindus to be the birthplace of Lord Ram, saw a Hindu temple destroyed in the 16th century by Mughal emperor Babur, who built the Babri Masjid mosque in its place[5][7]. After centuries of dispute, the mosque was demolished by a Hindu mob in 1992, leading to widespread riots and loss of life[1][3].

In 2019, the Indian Supreme Court ruled that the land should be given to a trust to build a Hindu temple, while a separate plot was allocated for a new mosque[7]. Supporters argue this was an act of restorative justiceâ"restoring a site of deep cultural and religious significance to the Hindu community, after centuries of perceived injustice[5][11]. Critics, however, note that the process did not fully address the harm caused by the mosque's destruction or the violence that followed, and some argue that true restorative justice would have required rebuilding the mosque or a more inclusive process[9].

#### 2. **United States Civil Justice Movement Against Slavery**

Restorative justice principles have influenced movements addressing the legacy of slavery in the United States. While the U.S. has largely relied on retributive legal frameworks, there have been efforts to acknowledge and repair the generational harm caused by slavery and systemic racism. These include:

- **Truth and Reconciliation Commissions:** Modeled after South Africa's post-apartheid process, some U.S. cities and institutions have established commissions to publicly acknowledge harm and recommend reparative actions[2].
- **Reparations Initiatives:** Local governments and organizations have explored financial compensation, educational programs, and public memorials to address the lasting impacts of slavery and segregation[2].

Restorative justice in this context seeks to *center the voices of those harmed*, foster dialogue, and create tangible steps toward healing and equity, rather than focusing solely on punishment or legal redress[2].

#### 3. **Islamic Law and Restorative Justice**

Restorative justice is also reflected in traditional Islamic legal concepts such as *Qisas* (retaliation), *Suluh* (conciliation), and *Diyya* (restitution or blood money). These practices prioritize the needs of victims and communities, allowing for forgiveness, compensation, and reconciliation rather than automatic retribution[2].

### Key Takeaways

- **Restorative justice** is about *repairing harm* and *restoring relationships*, not just punishing offenders.
- It is used to address both *individual crimes* and *historic injustices*, such as the destruction of cultural sites or the legacy of slavery.
- Real-world applications are complex and sometimes controversial, especially when addressing deep-seated historical or communal wounds, as seen in Ayodhya and post-slavery America.
- Success depends on *inclusive dialogue*, *acknowledgment of harm*, and *meaningful reparative actions* that address the needs of all affected parties[2][5][11].
