The question is that why do innocent people die from such attacks? Why  does not Allah protect the innocent people who have nothing to do with  crime or corruption? <\/p>\n<h3>Answer<\/h3>\n<p>The  Almighty Allah has put man through test in this worldly life. Seen from  our angle it is sheer injustice to deprive a man of his mother, son or  daughter. But God sees the entire creation from a more wise and merciful  angle. He does not see things like us. He has planned a test for us  all. He implements His scheme according to His profound wisdom. It needs  to be appreciated that those killed by the oppressors also face the  test of life. There life is destined to end that way. However, this does  not exonerate the atrocities of the oppressors. The criminals will be  punished by God according to the demands of justice. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Answered by:<\/strong> Tariq Mahmood Hashmi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> 2015-03-10<\/p>\n<button class=\"simplefavorite-button\" data-postid=\"5906\" data-siteid=\"1\" data-groupid=\"1\" data-favoritecount=\"0\" style=\"\">Favorite <i class=\"sf-icon-star-empty\"><\/i><\/button>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I  have a question that you see many innocent people dying in the world  either by natural disasters or by attacks from police or some criminals.
