What is Jainism thoughts about killing bad people

In Jainism, killing any living being is wrong, even if the person is considered “bad.” Jain dharma teaches ahimsa as the highest principle.

Key Jain thoughts:

• Do not harm or kill anyone.
• Hatred does not remove hatred; nonviolence and self-control do.
• A person who does wrong should be dealt with through truth, restraint, forgiveness, and lawful protection, not violence.
• Jainism emphasizes changing the soul through repentance, discipline, and karma purification, not through revenge.

So, from Jain view:

• Killing a bad person is also himsa.
• The right path is to protect life, avoid violence, and oppose wrongdoing without hatred.
