Never forget November 30th, 2007

When I saw the results of the HINDRAF rally on Sunday last week (several knocked down dividers, trash strewn on the streets and four injured policemen later, that is), I am reminded of what their ideological cousins, the Hindu Kar Sevaks from the RSS, did to this masjid in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh state.

Never forget what happened to the Babri Mosque.

Islam—what Muslims believe in September 17th, 2007

This is an interesting article that I found on a forum recently. I am unable to find the source, so I’ll just post it here in full with a view that I will accredit it to a source in the future. I have never condoned the horrible atrocities that was committed on the day of September 11th 2001 and the Khawaarij, the extremists in Islam, should be treated with the same disdain and loathing as the Christian missionaries. If I had my way, I will behead a Khawaarij’s head the same way I would to a Christian missionary.

Islam—what Muslims believe in
by Staff Sgt. Amy Parr, Air Force Print News

10/09/01 - WASHINGTON—A new word was introduced at the United Nations Summit on Racism in September - “Islamiphobia,” meaning the fear of Islam and Muslims.

This new word represents the fear felt by some who link all people of Islamic faith to the terrorists who hijacked planes and crashed into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and Pennsylvania.

The best way for people to overcome those fears is to be informed, said Chaplain (Capt.) Hamza Al-Mubarak, a Muslim chaplain assigned to the 81st Training Wing, Keesler Air Force Base, Miss.

“Ignorance and hate have already cost us thousands of lives,” he said. “Get the information (about Islam) and pass it on to someone you know.” The Quran does not condone acts of terrorism, he said.

“Islam is a religion of mercy and peace, it does not permit or encourage terrorism,” Al-Mubarak said.

Ramadhan mubarak! September 12th, 2007

Ramadhan is derived from an Arabic word for intense heat and scorched ground;
As heat cleanses that which is unclean, may this month cleanse our heart from any impurity within;
As heat that scours the muck off a surface, may this month bar our speech from vain chatter;
As heat that removes foul odour from the air, may this month remove wicked visions from our eyes;
As the heat that welds two pieces of iron together, may this month connect our hand and legs to beneficial things;
As the heat that eradicates the germs from the environment, may this month remove bad thoughts from our mind and replace it with good faith;

And so we ask our Creator for the heat of this month to purify us and return us to the scorched ground where we stand on the last day. On the day when the heat will raze to the scorched ground all our facade which we build with so much effort, and leave us with only that which is within, blown unto us by The Creator on the day of our creation.

Ramadhan Mubarak to all Muslims, minus the Islam Liberals!
