In the past 18 months France has suffered seven deadly Islamist attacks. The murder of an 84-year-old priest in a church near the northern city of Rouen on Tuesday, was the latest tragedy to hit a nation which is already overwhelmed with grief and fear.
This incident came less than two weeks after an attacker ploughed a truck into Bastille Day revelers in Nice, killing 84 people. These were the latest in the recent spate of attacks that have collectively claimed the lives of 230 people.

O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other). Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of God is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And God has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things). ~ Quran 49:13
