Asad Shah, 40, died from injuries sustained in the attack on Thursday night in which his killers are believed to have stabbed him and stamped on his head. Medics tried to save him but he died in hospital.<\/p>\n

Police Scotland, who have arrested a man in connection with the attack, said they were treating the death as \u201creligiously prejudiced\u201d.<\/p>\n

\n
Respected shopkeeper Asad Shah wrote on Facebook: \u2018To my beloved Christian nation\u2019<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

An eyewitness said two men had set upon the shopkeeper and said: \u201cOne was stamping on his head. There was a pool of blood on the ground. \u201d<\/p>\n

Floral tributes were placed outside Mr Shah\u2019s shop, a newsagent and convenience store close to where he was attacked in Shawlands, Glasgow, as residents left messages of sympathy.<\/p>\n

A few hours before he was killed, Mr Shah wrote on Facebook: \u201cGood Friday and a very Happy Easter, especially to my beloved Christian nation… Let\u2019s follow the real footstep of beloved holy Jesus Christ (PBUH) [peace be upon him], and get the real success in both worlds xxxx.\u201d<\/p>\n
