Waswas and split personalties part1

I cannot write to advise and remind others and myself of sticking to aspects of the Deen without addressing the fact that we have shaytans within us.
The Prophet sallalahu alayhi wasalam said: “There is none among you with whom is not an attache from amongst the Jinn.” They, the Companions said: “Allah’s Apostle, with you too?” Thereupon he said: “Yes, but Allah helps me against him and he does not command me but for his own good. (Sahih Muslim 6757)

At the same time,
For each (person), there are angels in succession, before and behind him.[] They guard him by the Command of Allâh. Verily! Allâh will not change the good condition of a people as long as they do not change their state of goodness themselves (by committing sins and by being ungrateful and disobedient to Allâh). But when Allâh wills a people's punishment, there can be no turning back of it, and they will find besides Him no protector. Quran(13:11)
So even as we feel the battle within ourselves, we should know that it is not a force of shaytan present, but also a force of good.

Iman is a fluctuating thing. It could be filling to the brim but, not always. And may Allah Ta’alah ease the hardships and temptations for us. Amin. It is difficult, but the path to Jannah has to be.

Be sure we shall test you with something of fear and hunger, some loss in goods or lives or the fruits (of your toil), but give glad tidings to those who patiently persevere
Quran (2:155)

So there are 2 types of people in the world…no inbetweens, no grey areas. Those that will lead you to Jannah and those that will lead you to Hell. So this pushing away the bad influences may be one way to survive this dunya as a perservering muslimah. Inshallah! I’ve noticed with myself that once you divide the people around you into these two, and avoid the latter, things get abit easier. It is tough saying so and so will lead me to hell, but it will be for the greater good, Inshallah.

Ok, so no one is perfect, Allah made us weak…only angels will ever perfectly, tirelessly devote every minute without one sin.

The Prophet said, "When Allah ordains something on the Heaven the angels beat with their wings in obedience to His Statement which sounds like that of a chain dragged over a rock. His Statement: 'Until when the fear is banished from their hearts, the Angels say, 'What was it that your Lord said?' They reply, 'He has said the Truth. And He is the Most High, The Great.' " (34.23)
Sahih Bukhari 3:573, Narrated Abu Huraira

WASWAS
This simply means the whispering of Shaytan. I had to write on this because its something I battle with a lot. I try to be a perfectionist but when it comes to wudhu for example, I wonder have I washed this thrice or, did I miss that rakkat, is this halaal, is that permissible. I guess it is another extreme.
A psychologist would say this is OCD, Obsessive Complusive Disorder. However it does not explain why it occurs when I’m doing something connected to Islam. If it was OCD, it would plague me throughout my daily activities. Clearly, Shaytan does not bother me with the doubt-filled whisperings when I’m doing anything else.

Ya Allah,

I am weak, for You made me weak,
Out of mud, I am moulded easily
I can be red-hot, burnt in the kiln
I can be ice-cold, frozen and numb
I can be spineless, squelching under trodding shoes
I can be hard, yet easily broken

So with this weakness,
I beg for strength

Strength to cool the heat and heat the cool
Strength to harden before trodden on and soften with humility.

Amin

Opinions, opinions opinions....and the Gay 'Muslim' community

The picture here is of ”Imam” Daayiee Abdullah, and he is trumpeted by his colleagues at the Al-Fatiha Foundation as being the world’s only openly gay Muslim scholar.

Man has something he was blessed with by Allah that other creations don’t have. That is logic and reasoning. It makes them somewhat stubborn, sometimes disobedient, always questioning. It is a blessing not a curse because it allows us to understand, and thus act in a way that we have reasoned to be good.

Some religions and beliefs contradict reasoning, that’s why the preacher’s favourite word is faith. Have faith! They say...just stop thinking about it and believe it! Because man can abandon the logic and rely on faith. Belief in the unknown.

Today we have reached a point in history where man does not believe anything without evidence. Where man holds his opinions in high esteem. Its a world where its all about ME and WHAT I THINK. Like children hobbling for the teacher’s attention.

Islam can be overpowering to some because it is a comprehensive guide. And we do have shaytans around us unseen and seen telling us to do disobey, it’s human nature to be imperfect. Sometimes people say it is our natures to be wild, like the animals to do as we shall, no matter the consequence, to follow our urges. That only leads to chaos. Allah has given every man a personal monitor, a conscience and a guide. There is a reason for everything. Islam does not proclaim dogmas, which are incompatible with reason or science.

It civilised the barbaric Arab tribes that used to bury their daughters, that used to kill without reason, that practiced slavery in its worst form. And in the twenty three years after the inception of Muhammad salalahu alayhi wasalam’s message the whole of the Arabian peninsula of bedouins was converted from disbeliefto devoted and faithful Muslims which brought about a moral, intellectual and spiritual awakening among them.

As Muslims, do we have opinions outside the logic Islam gives us, should we have these opinions?

Logically, one thinks differently when they can prove something wrong. As a Muslim you have pledged that this is your Deen. It affects your thoughts and the views of the world. But we're not stupid, if Islam went against our logic, we wouldn't be Muslims.

Sometimes opinions still reign even after logic decides otherwise.

This world has decieved us about so many things. It makes halal what we are told is haram and unfortunately many muslims would label another as extremist if we believe what Islam told us to believe. Not only Islam, but logic. I’m talking for example about gay marriages. Islam says homosexuality is a sexual perversion. It is wrong and disrupts the order of nature. Biology would attest to the same. But I guess the test we humans face is our desires. Because we don’t have religion as a point of reference in this general culture, we have transgressed far by relying on another logic. One that is based on whims and why nots. It’s their right, they’re entitled to it.

Once you’re a muslim, shouldn’t you only stick to the Quran and Hadith? What’s the point if you’ll oppose some of it and accept another part of it?

I was watching a documentary on Gay Muslims in UK. There was a man who prays five times a day, does everything Islamic, believes in it all but is gay. It’s a tad confusing for me. I’m an outsider and don’t know what he’s going through, but you’d expect him to put Islam aside instead of joining the two. I guess life is more complicated than that. But if this country was sharia he would be dead. Maybe he wouldn’t commit sodomy if he knew he would be executed. Maybe he needs help. Would he want help?

I asked a gay friend I used to know if there was a cure, would you take it? He was silent for a long time. It was his identity. He had built his whole world round this idea and conviction. He wouldn’t. There are psychologists who have turned people straight, permanently.

Almost all the gay friends I’ve come to know along the way have been sexually abused and embrace that act instead of rejecting it and that removes any feeling of victimisation. It becomes their choice, their identity. Never endingly fighting the ghost of the abuse. It halts natural emotional development, taking sex out of reproduction. And because they live in societies that view it not as a problem but as a lifestyle, their psychological issues continue to persist. It's a life in limbo for many.

Islam is submission to Allah. There is no partial submission...in the end it is the Almighty that will judge but He pointed to us in all previous holy Books and in the Quran that it is a crime. How does one openly flaunt being gay and a religion that will execute you if you followed it rightly all in one??

Where I am from originally, gayness used to be almost non existent. The men did not even think it an option and it was not there. In recent years with globalisation and westernisation of this African country, it is now an option and a considerably higher number of gays are present.
Historically, homosexuality has been documented. It did exist but the difference between back then and now is that it is becoming fashionable, not abhored as previously but now accepted and almost encouraged in some situations.

Here is a link to Henry Makow Phd.'s interesting articles who pointed out the attack on heterosexuality and the influence of extensive homosexuality in our society today.

ISLAM FROM THE LIPS OF THE PROPHET sallalahu alayhi wasalam

Many have been introduced to Islam in a not so positive way, it has indeed been a scapegoat more so these recent years. So what is it really? An incident that happened with the Prophet peace and blessings be upon him explains simply what it is. A pure religion that is about surrendering oneself to worship only one God, not a man, not an idol, a Supreme Being.
A while before the Muhammad Salalahu alayhi wasallam departed from this world, someone special came down to find out whether the Message had been fully conveyed. This would be the last Prophet out of all hundreds of thousands of them sent all over the world to different peoples, since the time of Adam peace and blessings be upon him. He would be the only one sent to the entire world. His time of death was drawing near and Omar Radhiallahu anhu narrates this hadith:
One day while we were sitting with the messenger of Allah sallalahu alayhi wasalam there appeared before us a man whose clothes were exceedingly white and whose hair was exceedingly black; no signs of journeying were to be seen on him and none of us knew him. He walked up and sat down by the prophet (peace and blessings be on him). Resting his knees against his and placing the palms of his hands on his thighs (this was a serious breach of privacy. The Prophet sallalahu alayhi wasalam was greatly loved by the Companions who were so very protective of him. To have a stranger so close to the leader of all Muslims rose the levels of tension.),
He said: “O Muhammed, tell me about Islam”.
The messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Islam is to testify that there is no god but Allah and Muhammed is the messenger of Allah, to perform the prayers, to pay the zakat, to fast in Ramadhan, and make the pilgrimage to the House if you are able to do so.”
He said: “You have spoken rightly” and we were amazed at him asking him and saying that he had spoken rightly. (no one spoke to the Prophet in that manner as if they were testing him, so this was a shock as the Companions looked on). He said “Then tell me about eman.”
He said: “It is to believe in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers and the Last Day, and to believe in divine destiny, both the good and evil thereof.”
He said, “You have spoken rightly” He said, “Then tell me about ihsaan.”
He said: “It is to worship Allah as if you are seeing Him, and while you see Him not yet truly He sees you.”
He said: “Then tell me about the Hour.”
He said: “The one questioned about it knows no better than the questioner.”
He said: “Then tell me about its Signs.”
He said: “The slave-girl will give birth to her mistress (this has been interpreted to illustrate the disrespect children will have to their parents that the daughter becomes mistress over her mother. Another interpretation has been the use of surrogate mothers, being paid to carry another’s –usually higher class or much wealthier-child) and that you will see the barefooted, naked, destitute herdsman competing in constructing lofty buildings.”(As in Dubai the descendants of modest Bedouins are now competing to cover the skyline, also been interpreted to show the intellect of these rich competing with each other, from New York to Johannesburg to show how civilised they are from the height of their buildings.”
Then he took himself off and I stayed for a time, Then he said: “O Omar, do you know who the questioner was?
I said: “Allah and His messenger know best.”
He said: "He was Jibreel (Gabriel), who came to you to teach you your religion.”

The Fault Comes Full Circle

Alhamdulillah we, as muslims are brimming the cup of life with our numbers. One statistic claims that one in five in the world is a Muslim. If this is the coming of the end of the world, we should be so grateful to be Muslim, take any discrimination, stereotypes and disapproval in your stride because that is a further indication that this is the truth.

We are told religion is backward and that the way to progress is secularisation. Those who believe we are living in secularised societies may be mistaken because man cannot cease to worship. Man cannot exist and not adore and supplicate. Unfortunately, the dominant religion of the day is the worship of appearances, pleasure and indeed worship oneself.

Money is a god and not money as a means of survival but as the object of desire. Not as the means but as the goal. Another worship is worship of another being, the celebrities who are only there as a glittery show, an illusion of happiness, the unreachable grapes, the supplication to them is imitation. The tangible becomes divine, and the intangible is forgotten. The spiritual self is neglected while what we see is the only existence. Science has somehow deluded man that he is great, that maybe there is none greater.

It is no surprise that Islam is under attack, it has been for centuries, but the intensity of today’s offence is symptomatic of our failures and the coming of qiyamah. If shaytan is behind any mischief and evil, it is natural for him to attack the good, the righteous and the God-fearing. The religious way of life is despised in this age of the fast life. But the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasalam did not leave us without a weapon, without a sure-fire way of protecting for the Ummah he so deeply loved and prayed for. Did we listen?

It is our faults that we are where we are.

Why is it our own faults?

The Prophet sallalahu alayhi wasalam stated that "Verily I have left with you two things, if you hold unto them you will never go astray! The Book of Allaah and my Sunnah!" [Authentic; recorded by al-Hakim].
It would be true to say if we did listen to him, we may not be in this very vulnerable situation today.
Our Nabi salalahu alayhi wasalam prophecised about fourteen centuries ago that a day would come when the Muslims would blindly copy the ways of the Christians and Jews, in spite of the obvious absurdity and the unIslamic character of some of those ways . This is exemplified by the hadith narrated Abu Sa’id al-Khudri, the Prophet (pbuh) said, “You will follow the ways of those nations who were before you, span by span and cubit by cubit (i.e., inch by inch) so much so that even if they entered a hole of a mastigure [lizard], you would follow them.” We said, “O Allah’s Apostle! (Do you mean) the Jews and the Christians?” He said, “Whom else?”

It was bizzare at that time that Muslims would follow the backward Christians and Jews. Islam was at the forefront of the scientific, mathematical and other academical fields as well as social tranquility and just governance. We can see now how Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasalam 's prophesy has come so very true,

How are we in the lizard’s hole and abandoned the Quran and Sunnah?
The Economy is a global economy based on debt, based on interest, based on RIBA.
We abandoned Sunnah money which is also mentioned in the Quran. It is gold and silver. Is it progress now that we deal with paper and value it? I have to also give respect to the Catholic Church that fought to keep usury out of the economies in Europe. With the first printing of paper money, it paved the way for a system easily manipulated by debt and interest. It also gave another dimension to who controls the money. Gold and silver are creations of Allah, and can be found in quantities prescribed by Allah. But the bankers wanted to have some power and now they print paper, and smugly print it at their will. Paper money is a rip off. No value. Riba is not only lending on interest but also a transaction where one party is ripped off. This was illustrated when in the following hadith.
Abd Sa'id reported: Bilal (Allah be pleased with him) came with fine quality of dates. Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said to him: From where (you have brought them)? Bilal said: We had inferior quality of dates and I exchanged two sa's (of inferior quality) with one sa (of fine quality) as food for Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him), whereupon Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: Woe! it is in fact usury; therefore, do not do that. But when you intend to buy dates (of superior quality), sell (the inferior quality) in a separate bargain and then buy (the superior quality). And in the hadith transmitted by Ibn Sahl there is no mention of" whereupon". (Muslim: 10.3871)
With our everyday transactions, we hand over an inferior quality (paper) for superior quality (goods or services.)

It is better explained in this hadith:

Abu Salih reported: I heard Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (Allah be pleased with him) said: Dinar (gold) for gold and dirham for dirham can be (exchanged) with equal for equal; but he who gives more or demands more in fact deals in interest. I sald to him: Ibn 'Abbas (Allah be pleased with them) says otherwise, whereupon he said: I met Ibn 'Abbas (Allah be pleased with them) and said: Do you see what you say; have you heard it from Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him), or found it in the Book of Allah, the Glorious and Majestic? He said: I did not hear it from Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him). and I did not find it in the Book of Allah (Glorious and Majestic), but Usama b. Zaid narrated it to me that Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) said: There can be an element of interest in credit. (Muslim: 10.3876)

However, after dealing with gold as a value, governments began ripping the public off when gold can be traded for paper. That is clearly unequal in value. Supposedly after the change over from gold and when governments established a paper economy, a fatwa was passed that it is halaal. Again only one scholar in Islam to my knowledge has spotted this deception risking unpopularity and disagreement. I may not have given an explanation as brilliantly as the learned Imran Hosein has but a more comprehensive one can be found in his books.

So down this lizard hole we are sleeping while Allah tells us in verse 279 in Suratul Baqarah: "If you do not, take notice of war from Allah and his Messenger but if you repent you shall have your capital sum. Deal not unjustly and you shall not be dealt with unjustly."

That is the subliminal Riba that we deal with everyday. But what about the well known Riba of lending for interest? Muslims Alhamdullilah have known this and stayed away, however this sick sick world we live in drills it into our heads that we must by whatever means own a piece of land. Yes, it would be nice to have a house, however something tells us that the world is shaky if we are renting. The world is shaky if we don’t have a house. But truly the world is shaky when you have a mortgage hanging over your shoulder and shakier when you fall into arreas!

So now, I have to also bring up this strange new idea of Islamic mortgage aimed at the pious muslims which is riba in disguise.For those who don’t know how it works is: An example: The bank buys a £200,000 house that you want and sells it to you for £400,000. It’s not just a price increase but a price for the time you need to pay it. They call it a sale, I call it riba.

"Allah will deprive usury of all blessing, and will give increase for deeds of charity, for he does not love any ungrateful sinner." (2:279) I was speaking to an Imam at a mosque I used to visit because in his khutbah, he had told muslims not to deal in the haraam mortgage but to do it the halaal way. Concerning the increased payment ‘sale’ the bank gives you because of the time you have to pay, he said that it was just business. Unfortunately, I could not remember the ayat on the spot. But I found it later:"Those who devour usury will not stand except as stands one whom the Satan by his touch has driven to madness. That is because they say, "trade is like usury", but Allah has permitted trade and has forbidden usury",(2:275)

Allahu ya'lam. Everyone be guided with what they feel in their hearts. Inshallah let us live in the state of pleasing Allah, Amin.

Why does Allah outlaw Riba in the Quran, the Injil and in the Taurat? This is because riba is reaping where you have not sown. Eating what you did not earn.

"That they took usury though they were forbidden and they devoured peoples wealth wrongfully; we have prepared for those amongst them who reject faith a grievous chastisement." (Suratul Nisa: 161.) They are devouring other people’s blood and sweat.
The Injil still outlaws this so technically, a true follower of Isa alayhi sallam would not deal in it. Funnily enough, the Taurat as it stands today stated that Jews cannot lend to a fellow Jew on Interest but can lend to a gentile on interest. The Quran reserved a great condemnation for the act of Dhulm which occurs when the Word of Allah is changed and a lie is told against Allah. “Who commits greater act of Dhulm (injustice) than he who tells a lie against Allah or rejects His Signs? But verily the wrongdoers never shall prosper.” (Suratul Al-An’am, 6:21)

Hazrat Abu Hurairah r.a. reported that the Prophet sallalahu alayhi wasalam said : A time will certainly come over the people when none will remain who will not devour usury. If he does not devour it, its vapour will overtake him. [Ahmed,Abu Dawood,Nisai,Ibn Majah] Subhanallah I'm afraid this time is now.

Ok, the bottom line I’m trying to put across here is that because of dealing with riba, we are tied in this paper global economy with the rest of them. A strong Muslim country cannot exist dealing with paper money. Because of it’s nature, it is prone to manipulation by the countries with the most power. "O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people."(5:51) Not only have we taken them as friends, they are our masters controlling the global finances and thus controlling us.

Africa is a prime example of how bad it can get. The richest continent on earth is inhabited with starving people. How is it that the poorest countries in resources are dominating the rich? The colonialists left Africa saying the countries were independent. After establishing their currencies, how could African ever be independent again? Every aid so readily given, most recently in the g20 summit, about 200 billion or so is a loan. One that the Africans will soon have to pay back with money or their resources plundered. Such is the world of Riba. The Middle East is enormously fortunate to control a substantial resource of oil that the so called developed world rely on, otherwise they may just as well be a second Africa. This is not ruling out the direct and the indirect control the West has in the Middle East.


Another thing we Muslims are at fault with is that we fight and bicker amongst ourselves. We divide ourselves uncontrollably. There is one solution. If we believe in Allah and the Messenger and call ourselves Muslim, the only thing we need is the Quran and Sunnah. If we are in a Muslim community, why can’t we live in peace, pray together and interact without calling one this sect or that movement? The Prophet Muhammad Mustafa sallalahu alayhi wasalam had said: This Ummah will split into seventy three parties, all of which will go to Hell - except for one party: the one which will follow the same path as what I and my companions are following today. [Authentic; recorded by Abu Dawud, at-Tirmidthi, and others].

What a loss we had losing the greatest man of our time, understandably we can not be as strong without him but is this Ummah even trying?
I was astonished myself when I moved into my current neighbourhood where you could enter a mosque for Jumuah and even if by a miracle the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasalam came back to life and was in that masjid he wouldn’t have understood what they were saying. There are mosques for different ethnicities, not even with a translation for the khutbah in English or even Arabic. Nationalism, ethnicity are for our diversity and not to be barriers. Islam unites so it is an utter paradox to have a masjid excluding others.

"O Mankind, We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female and made you into nations and tribes, that you may know each other. Verily the most honored of you in the sight of God is he who is the most righteous of you" (Quran 49:13).
These are but a few ways we have left the Sunnah and Quran and are stuck in the lizard hole. Celebrating unIslamic holidays, attempting to incorporate kufr fashion into our dress, making nasheeds that have no difference with secular music and modernising this way of life. The way of life of our father Ibrahim had never needed any modernisation until this past century. Is this really progress?
We need to realise that Islam is the truth and is too dignified to be incorporated with something else. The authentic Islam is purity and sticking with the Guidance given to us.

It is no wonder that we are in trouble. We as Muslims say Allahu Akbar with every motion is prayers but nowhere in this beautiful world of Allah's is there a land where Allah is recognised as al-Akbar. The Muslim states are so friendly with the Kafirun that they are proud members of the United Nations. Did they not read the Charter?

Article 24 states that its Members confer on the Security Council primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security. It consists of nations whose foundations are on Kufr and we follow so readily into the lizard hole. Again Allah had told us:O Ye who believe! Choose not for guardians such of those who received the Scripture before you, and of the disbelievers, as make a jest and sport of your religion. But keep your duty to Allah if ye are true believers.(5:57) The previous ayat that told us they are friends of one another could not be emphasised enough. The UN is supposedly trying to maintain world peace but since it's inception around the same time as the birth of the racist state Israel, all it has done is vetoe the Arab voice. No one could act against the injustices of Israel. Maybe this was it's intended purpose. If the UN or League of Nations had never existed, Palestine and the Holy Land would never be under Britain as a mandate and Israel could never have the chance of being created.

Again we did not listen.

Never in history had a country had the right to interfere in the domestic issues of another as after the inception of the concept of the League of Nations and UN.

We have been enslaved financially, politically, socially and what remains now is the empty shell of Islam. It can no longer be practiced as a pure way of life as it was intended to. This is why there are attempts to create this Muslim village. Would you leave your comfortable lives to a life without luxury but only the basics needed for an Islamic substinence farming community? To rid your lived with this modern world? Inshallah I'm looking forward to the Project!

InshAllah May Allah shower his Guidance and Noor to all of us. For those who love this life, this dunia, Islam will be the hardest task, but forget this world. What’s the point of a house when we are but travellers? We can die tomorrow, tonight or in the next hour. What will we answer to Him?

Attempting to clear a race

In an age like this age when what the mainstream news becomes fact for most people, further research seems like time wasted, or maybe time not had. Many people working long hours probably don’t have time to bother with finding out how someone is shaping their thoughts for them. Haven’t you noticed how these repeaters, I mean reporters all have the same story…everyday, they have the same repetition of events. They all have pretty much the same stories! Do you know why? This is most certainly NOT because this world is so small that the news is limited.

Just think about the different countries in this world and they decide for instance today we focus on one particular event in one particular country. This is most certainly not because there is no other bombings occurring. Why is it with so many troops out there they do not have detailed coverage, regularity of what exactly the troops are doing? Which Afghani school they built, or bombed…which Iraqi family they freed, or killed…why is there nothing on Obomba’s repeated bombing of Pakistan as I type this, and if his bombing of villages justifies the threat they claim, which I can’t get myself to buy.

Gaza is still an issue and they ignore it, discard it like it never happened. The Palestinians cannot even rebuild their homes because Israel is not permitting building materials, there is demolition of Eastern Jerusalem houses which is dashing the hopes of a 2 STATE SOLUTION that the Israelis claim to be peacefully working towards, there is continuous drilling underground to destabilise Masjudul Aqsa to make way for their Temple when it collapses, There is little water, food while they are locked up in Gaza. Their orchards were just cut down a few days ago... BUT ITS NOT FIT FOR CUTTING EDGE NEWS! The BBC can run a story about seahorses. Palestinians are the most endangered trust me. May Allah strengthen their hearts, they have so much Iman and faith to have the resilience they do. Subhanallah, may they triumph fi-sabeelillah. Amin

Why are the injustices by non-Muslim countries overlooked? Human Rights in North Korea….which by the frikking way is communist…which I thought was the axis of evil a few decades ago. I guess different time, different villain. What about China? What about the discrimination, yes it hasn’t left South Africa. What about their own problems? Have they enriched their citizens to the extent that there is no fathomable way to dispose off their debt ridden money than to fuel wars in all areas of the globe. Of course they, the clean and pure Allies are as saintly as ever.

The news no matter how many channels you can boast is always the same because they have the same source for instance Reuters. If I controlled Reuters, I control the reality of the majority. Who controls the Reuters? Who owns our news? The Rothschilds. Enough said. I already have made my point, I don't need to write further.

Not a single announcement will reach the public without our control. Even now this is already being attained by us inasmuch as all news items are received by a few agencies, in whose offices they are focused from all parts of the world. These agencies will then be already entirely ours and will give publicity only to what we dictate to them.
- Protocol 12:4 The Protocols of the Elders of Zion

The House of Rothschild bought Reuters news service in the 1800's. Within the last 20 years, Reuters bought the Associated Press. Now the Elite own the two largest wire services in the world, where most newspapers get their news.

And the idea in our minds begins to form that news is not really news its, just as in Hitler's time, Stalin's time but on a wider wider scale, its all propaganda. So I say ALHAMDULILLAH for the internet, they at least for now cannot control the thoughts of those who genuinely search for the truth.

Dr. George Gerbner, former Dean of the Annenberg School of Communications at the University of Pennsylvania, put it this way: "Television, more than any single institution, molds behavioral norms and values. And the more TV we watch, the more we tend to believe in the world according to TV, even though much of what we see is misleading."

Even with the obvious charade that was 9/11 and 7/7, and disappearance of weapons of mass destruction and their need to torture people without a trial? Why without a trial and that breached article 10 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights which they force down the throats of every other non-Ally. Wow, its like the big kids never stop the bullying. One cannot forget the scare a few weeks ago that there was terrorist activity and a bomb plot but after raiding the houses, scaring the living daylights of many Britons who had almost forgotten News’s imaginary friend al-Qaeda. They found NEITHER a bomb, nor a PLOT. Yeah, Muslims are always the diversion when something domestically goes wrong. Jacqui Smith was still reeling over the plug, and video scandal that she had to pull this one out.

They always hated Arabs, let me tell you. They always always despised Arabs. From their first contact with the Arab world around the 7th or 8th century it has been never-ending war. If you look to history, from the time the barrier that Dhul-Qarnain built was broken by the leave of Allah Ta-alah, it was war.

The difference today is that it is so blatant, the hatred and taint of an entire race… Professor Shaheen says, "To be an Arab in America today is to be an object of contempt and ridicule by television under the guise of entertainment. To me this antiArab image on entertainment manifests itself in the politics of America."


MISCONCEPTIONS BY MEDIA

• Although Arabs have lived for centuries in thriving metropolitan centers such as Rabat, Algiers, Alexandria, Cairo, Damascus, Jerusalem, Beirut, Mecca (Makkah) and Baghdad, and have built complex, civilized societies across the Arab world, as well as in Europe's Iberian Peninsula, many Westerners have been persuaded to believe that Arabs are typically uncultured normads who live in desert tents.
• OPEC - the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries - as synonymous with Arabs and the Arab world, and while the media routinely blames Arabs whenever OPEC decides to raise oil prices, in fact six of the 13 OPEC member states are not Arab.
• Television and motion pictures often depict Arabs and Muslims, uniquely, as religious bigots, lacking any tolerance for the religious sensibilities of others. In fact, for much of history, Islam has been more tolerant of Christianity (and of Judaism) than vice versa. Moreover, it was Jewish Zionists who established Israel, in the "promised land" of Palestine, as a state exclusively for the "chosen people."
• While the Arabic Word "Allah" is often invoked in American films in a way designed to evoke derision and cynicism, conjuring an image of some weird pagan deity, in fact "Allah" is simply the Arabic word for God. Not only Arab Muslims, but Arab Christians and even Arab Jews, use this Word as their term for God.
• "Terrorists" are active all over the world, in countries as diverse as Britain, Italy, Ireland, Russia, Germany, Spain, Japan, Israel, and the United States. (The terrorist record of the Jewish Defense League, for example, is well documented. In 1985 the FBI named the JDL as the second most active terrorist groups in the US.)2 However, Hollywood has done much to encourage Americans to associate "terrorists" with Arabs (especially Palestinians), and Muslim "militants".

When you look to who controls the media, then you understand the image of Islam.

Ben Stein, Jewish-American author of The View From Sunset Boulevard, forthrightly acknowledged:
A distinct majority, especially of the writers of situation comedies, is Jewish ... TV people have certain likes ... and dislikes ... and these likes and dislikes are translated into television programming. In turn, this problem raises the public acceptance of the favored groups and the public dislikes of the resented groups.

INQUIRY

In interviews with American television executives, Dr. Shaheen pressed for an explanation for the hypocrisy and lack of decency and self-restraint in this pattern of Arab stereotyping on TV. Many of those questioned, he reports, were "embarrassed," and reluctantly acknowledged the widespread disparagement of Arabs, without, however, explaining the reasons for such prejudiced imagery.

Donn O'Brien, CBS vice president of broadcast standards, sheepishly admitted to Shaheen that he had never seen a "good Arab" on American television, and that Arabs are routinely presented as covetous desert rulers or as warmongers. "Arabs are rarely portrayed as good guys," acknowledged Frank Glicksman, a Jewish-American TV producer in Los Angeles. "I've never seen them portrayed as anything but heavies in melodrama. That, I feel, is unfair." Another Hollywood television producer, Don Brinkley, conceded: "The depiction of the Arab on television is generally horrendous." And George Watson, vice president of ABC News, admitted: "Arabs have not been seen to be as real, as close, or as tangible, either as individuals or as a group, as the Israelis

Not all television executives were as forthcoming, however. Jewish television producer Meta Rosenberg, for example, bluntly responded to Shaheen's inquiry by saying that she did not care about the Arabs, and considered the Arab-American community - which now numbers well over three million - to be "insignificant."

WHY?

There are many reasons as to why they would want to taint our religion:

They know it's the truth: They Quran mentions how many of them recognised Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasalam as a Prophet just as they would recognise their own son. Inshallah I will write on incidents where they met with the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasalam and the Chief Head Rabbi had no choice but to revert, mashallah.

The Quran details where they changed the Torah, and what was before they changed it.

Ignorance: They are conditioned just as in many other countries that the arab is sub human

It is destiny, it is one of the signs of Qiyamah that these events occur. There has to be evil before Jesus peace and blessings be upon him and Imam Mahdi Allayhi salam can return, and the time seems closer than ever.

There is my series of articles on the War on Islam, albeit unfinished.

We had been forewarned by Allah Ta'allah and the Rasul.

Hadith from Bukhari:

Volume 9, Book 88, Number 181:
Narrated Zainab bint Jahsh:
The Prophet got up from his sleep with a flushed red face and said, "None has the right to be worshipped but Allah. Woe to the Arabs, from the Great evil that is nearly approaching them. Today a gap has been made in the wall of Gog and Magog like this." (Sufyan illustrated by this forming the number 90 or 100 with his fingers.) It was asked, "Shall we be destroyed though there are righteous people among us?" The Prophet said, "Yes, if evil increased."

Volume 9, Book 88, Number 182:
Narrated Usama bin Zaid:
Once the Prophet stood over one of the high buildings of Medina and then said (to the people), "Do you see what I see?" They said, "No." He said, "I see afflictions falling among your houses as rain drops fall."

Volume 9, Book 88, Number 183:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, "Time will pass rapidly, good deeds will decrease, miserliness will be thrown (in the hearts of the people) afflictions will appear and there will be much 'Al-Harj." They said, "O Allah's Apostle! What is "Al-Harj?" He said, "Killing! Killing!" (See Hadith No. 63, Vol. 8)

Volume 9, Book 88, Number 184:
Narrated 'Abdullah and Abu Musa:
The Prophet said, "Near the establishment of the Hour there will be days during which Religious ignorance will spread, knowledge will be taken away (vanish) and there will be much Al-Harj, and Al-Harj means killing."

Volume 9, Book 88, Number 188:
Narrated Az-Zubair bin 'Adi:
We went to Anas bin Malik and complained about the wrong we were suffering at the hand of Al-Hajjaj. Anas bin Malik said, "Be patient till you meet your Lord, for no time will come upon you but the time following it will be worse than it. I heard that from the Prophet."

MAY ALLAH TA'ALAH LESSEN THE FITNA FOR WHAT WE CAN BEAR AND TAKE US TO JANNATUL FIRDAUS, AMIN.

HIJRAH & THE MODERN WORLD

As a kid, I was taught Islam from my partly secular parents and later went to madrasa. I was taught Islam, the basics. The fiqh, the tauheed and the basic tafseer of some surahs. Seerah was also included. I learnt this beautiful religion with the dryness of a desolate desert. How could it be possible to have deflate such a rich religion. I was taught it the way you teach children history in school.

But recently, Islam has been brought to life for me. How does Islam relate with this world?

I don't mean the modernisation of Islam, which deserves to be set aside as its own class or sect. Islam is digfnified and what Modernising Islam does is to emasculate it. The Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasalam said that at its inception, Islam started as a strange thing. Strange to those pagans in Arabia, and he said that one day Islam will return to that strangeness. Bushra lahum- glad tidings to the strange ones. When Muhammad sallallahu alayhum's Islam is compared to the extreme secularisation today is strange. Haven't you noticed that you can be different is all senses of the word; goth, indie, gay, pierced everywhere, dye your hair all colors of the rainbow...but to be a muslim, big problem, to wear hijab, big problem, niqab which is sunnah...BIGGER PROBLEM. So Islam is like a square peg forced into a round hole.

Muslims we have to stop assimilating, they hate it or love it. If you try adapt to their conditions: Firstly they won't respect you and secondly your Islam will weather away. Hold on to your Islam with a conviction. This is Islam and I am proud of it, every part of it. There are many controversial aspects to Islam that don't sit well with the west. And we can't appease them.

Muhammad sallallahu alayhim wasalam married Aisha and she was young, DEAL with it. He is OUR RASUL, the most respected man, for us muslims. Some Muslims even try and change the story add her age up, make weird fantasies, no she was 9. Yes Muslim men can marry 4 wives, and they will always have that right no matter how you disapprove. Our men don't look like women and our women don't look like men, the way nature meant it for us. Islam will never change, Muslims might change for you but the core Islam is like an untainted rock.

Today the muslims in the west, in my opinion are very similar to the muslims before hijrah, and the counter terrorist measures designed to single out the believers is the oppression the muslims faced in the beginning. They did one thing that we haven't: HIJRAH. How much more oppression can we stand?

Hijabis being discriminated against, men too scared to grow beards, people too scared to revert, indoctrination of our children from nursery, detention at airports, taken into custody without trial, they can take us, imprison us, send us to their torture dens, and you thought Gitmo was the only one out there! It was the only one made public!

Since the last Ottoman Empire, there has not been a Caliphate. Islam is like an ideology with no grounding. We need to be together as an Ummah, living together in this time of godlessness. If there is anyone to blame for our vulnerability, it is ourselves. We did not listen to what the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasalam said in his last sermon: I leave on you two things, to which if you hold on to them you will not go astray; the Quran and my sunnah. Having an Ameer, a main leader, a Caliph is sunnah. Without that we are like people living without any coverage from the elements and boy are these elements finishing us off.

So I was looking for a solution. Because you know the time of Dajjal to appear as a person is looming, for he has already appeared as the system. We are told to read Suratul Kahf every Jummuah as a repellant for this great fitna. But Why? Our Rasul sallallahu alayhi wasalam also stated that there will come a time when people will read Quran without internalising it, without acting on it. Today its just the pretty tajweed that we hear. Suratul Kahf has the answer to our problems.

It tells the story of the youths who ran away from their community to hide in the Cave because they believed in One God. They would have been persecuted if they had remained. So we are being told to flee. To make our hijrah. I am not an expert in Quran tafseer, or guidance because I need alot myself, but I know one who is. Imran Hosein is one of the few Islamic scholars who preaches and it goes into the heart, touches it. He relies on only the Quran and Sunnah. He has online books on the Gog and Magog (do you know who they are, do you still think they are hidden behind some wall? They broke out centuries ago) and more information on Suratul Kahf. You can check him on youtube as well. http://www.imranhosein.org/

He has taught me alot!!! He is beginning to pioneer projects for a muslim village, not many muslims would like this. There are no flashy cars, tall buildings, malls etc. Its about finding who you are as a human being. Our humanity is being sucked away by these concrete cages. Anyway you can research that yourselves: the muslim village. There are projects in Indonesia, Trinidad, South Africa where muslims can move in establish Islam with one Ameer and our own means of trade (without the rip off of paper money), sustenance farming and operqating our own sharia. May Allah bless this project and allow Muslims to establish our religion as a complete way of life and away from the kufr we currently live in. Ameen.

We are all humans and one thing I know is that human beings ABHOR I mean totally hate change. We are creatures of habit. I for one see it as a great challenge to move for the cause of Allah (hijrah).

You might ask : Why move? You can still be great muslims wherever you are, right? and many will click their way so far away from this blog and erase any memory of that scary word hijrah. Don't fret if you put all your trust in Allah. I know I know its haaard but isn't the road to Jannah hard, it ain't easy folks.

These are a couple of ayats and hadiths that ALOT of you in the West will hate to read. I'm just pointing them out and then figure out what I'll do about my own personal situation.

Surat an-Nisa:
Verily! As for those whom the Angels have taken (in death) while they are wronging themselves (as they stayed among the disbelievers even though emigration was obligatory to them), they (angels) asked them, "In what condition were you?". They replied, "We were weak and oppressed on earth". The Angels asked, "Was not the earth of Allah spacious enough for you to migrate therein?" Such men will find their abode in Hell - what an evil destination! Except the weak ones among men, women and children who were unable to devise a plan, nor are they able to direct their way

The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “I am not responsible for any Muslim who stays among polytheists. They asked: 'Why, Apostle of Allah? He said: ‘Their fires should not be visible to one another.’, and he (peace be upon him) said, “Who joins the polytheists and lives with them then he is like them” and he (peace be upon him) said: “Migration will not end until repentance ends, and repentance will not end until the sun rises in the west.”

0 you who believe! Do not take the Jews and the Christians as protectors, they are protectors of one another, whoever takes them as protectors is one of them

Then, in the words of the Prophet (peace be upon him): "Whoever joins the,disbelievers and lives amongst them is one of them'

Say, 'If your fathers, your sons, your brothers, your wives, your kinsmen, the wealth which you have acquired, the commerce in which you fear a decline, or the houses you love - if these are dearer to you than Allah and His Messenger, and striving hard and fighting in His cause, then wait until Allah brings about His Decision (Torment). Allah does not guide those who are AI-Faasiqun
They will not stop fighting you until they turn you away from your religion, if they are able

and He says about the people of the Cave:

For if they come to know of you, they will stone you or turn you back to their religion, then you will never prosper

The Hijrah is a vitally important aspect of Islam; it is at once the guiding principle of alliance and dissociation and the supreme example of it. The Muslims could never have abandoned their homes and families, exposing themselves to the pain of separation and the hardship of migration if it had not been indispensable to the practice of their religion and the assertion of Islam in the land. Allah promised these emigrants a great reward in this world and the next, saying:
Those who left their homes for the sake of Allah after having suffered persecution shall be settled in comfort in this world but in the next is the greater reward if they but knew. Those who were steadfast and who upon their Lord totally depend.

Hijrah has a comprehensive meaning as understood in Islam. It is not simply just the act of moving from one place to another; from a non-Muslim country to a Muslim country. Ibn al-Qayyim explains that it is, in fact, an emigration of the body and the spirit. A physical movement from one place to another and a spiritual migration to Allah and His Messenger (peace be upon him). It is this second migration which constitutes the real migration, as the body simply follows the soul. Thus, the meaning of moving from one thing to something else is that the heart moves from the love of something other than Allah to love of Allah; from servitude of something or other to the service and worship of Allah; from fear of something or other to hope in and reliance upon Allah. It is Allah Who is the object of one's hope and fear; prayers are addressed to Him; and He is the One before Whom one feels humility and awe. This is the meaning of flight which Allah mentions in the command: (So flee to Allah).

Because of the significance of the Hijrah, especially in the early days of Islam, Allah swt severed the ties of mutual support between the Muslims who migrated to Madinah and those who chose to remain in Makkah, saying:

Indeed those who believe and who migrated and who struggle in the Path of Allah with their wealth and their lives, and those who gave them shelter and who gave them help, these are allies of one another. But those who believe yet did not migrate have no part in this alliance until they too migrate. If they seek your assistance in faith you must help them except against a people with whom you have a treaty. Allah is well aware of what you do.

Migration from the lands of disbelievers to the lands of Muslims was mandatory in the time of the Prophet (peace be upon him), and it is still obligatory till the Day of Judgement. The obligation which the Prophet (peace be upon him) lifted after the conquest of Makkah was that of taking up residence near him. Whoever accepts Islam while living among those who are at war with Muslims must leave to make his home among the Muslims.

This is supported by the Hadith of Mujaashi' Ibn Mas'ud who said: "I took my brother to the Prophet after the Conquest of Makkah, and said, "0 Allah's Apostle! I have come to you with my brother so that you may take a pledge of allegiance from him for migration." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "The people of migration (i.e. those who migrated to Madinah before the Conquest) enjoyed the privileges of migration (i.e. there is no need for migration anymore)." I said to the Prophet (peace be upon him), "For what will you take his pledge of allegiance?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "I will take his pledge of allegiance for Islam, Belief, and for Jihad”

There was no need for migration from Makkah to Madinah because the Muslims had now conquered both. So no point in moving from a muslim area to another. Only when in the country of disbelievers engaging in kufr, shirk and attacking us muslims do we need to act.
For a better explanation for the verdict of Hijrah and the ruling on it and when we should leave is at:

http://www.missionislam.com/knowledge/hijrah.htm

I am currently coming to terms with my own situation because I don't know if you guys feel it or anything, something is going to happen. The New World Order is too close for comfort, here in UK, the Police are really clamping it down on common people, I can't bear the waiting whilst the next false flag attempt to be blamed again on muslims resulting in more Islamophobia and probably the invasion of Iran. This is not the kind of place where I feel my Iman will prosper and grow, InshAllah may Allah give our hearts peace and tranquility in these trying times and May Allah Ta'alah show mercy on us because surely we have gone astray.

Many of you may not interpret things the same way but peace and blessings to you, and may we all die in the state of pleasing Allah Subhanna wa ta'allah.

WAR ON ISLAM....Why??? part 5

3. ANTI-CONSUMERISM & ANTI MATERIALISM

If we do believe this world is the only one. This is the only existence we will ever live. It ends in the grave. Cradle to decomposition is the legacy of mankind. If I were to swallow this, then life is short, pour me another shot. The hedonists would say live now, this is the time. But sadly, how can you live for the moment when its gone just like that. The minute you say “now”, it becomes “then”. So how can we live for now?

Shaykh Hamza Yusuf told the story of how he once heard loud rock and roll music coming from a farm and asked the farmer why he plays the music so loud. He said the pigs eat more with music so they get fatter and they can sell them. There is no time, you have to rush, buy, buy buy. The very advertising is an attack on your mind as well as your pockets.

The weekend comes and immediately people have free time, a whole free 2 days, the malls are crowded. There was a study on the effect of music in Malls, when you get into a shop it slows the time down and makes people forget how long they are in the store, grazing like cattle.

If ever we lived in a virtual prison, the time is now. We work for a meagre salary and then rush the first chance we get to hand the teller the cash as if our sweat is valued at nothing. I have been there before enter a shop and I won't even need the item but I buy. Someone who studied advertising will tell you that that was not mere chance. We are being conditioned on so many levels.

If there is no spirituality in the heart and no knowledge that there is other wealth other than physical wealth, we are permanent slaves. It means that our mission is basically to accumulate as much as possible before we perish. We will do anything to reach this mission even if it goes against any morals previously had.
It has served to detach us from who we truly are. We are not cattle, fed at their troughs, we have a deeper consciousness. A deeper reality that is constantly being torn away from us from our birth. We have attached value to the objects and not the inner beings. I will deal with this aspect in a future post Inshallah about the chakras.

Because there is fasaad, corruption of everything, we have little to remind us of our humanity. The images we are constantly being fed condition us that humans are brutish by nature and follow their whims, just like an animal. And that’s why Darwinism is so believable to the gullible.

The buy buy buy, spend spend spend, do do do as you see see see on tv tv tv obsession that has wreaked havoc in the west is fast spreading all over. The quicker the rest of the world follows in the global secularisation, the global melting pot, the eradication of traditions, values and cultures for the amalgamation into this fickle one, the quicker we befall the same illnesses from eating the same foods, manufactured illnesses that we never had before, pop out of some monkeys or from some acid rain somewhere. The obsession with assimilation and materialism that go hand in hand together has no place in Islam.

We forget our purpose and I shall remind you and myself:

"I have only created man and jinn but to worship me",

[Surah Adh-Dhariya].
Consider, the Sun rises in the east and sets in the west, the Earth orbits the Sun and not the other way round. Even within ourselves, our hearts beat in rhythm: all of which are following a law and rule, without any chaos.

This obsession with materialism is a form of oppression. If this is the only thing to do with our lives (accumulate) then surely that is a limit of enormous sorts. It is an oppression of our innate natures. There needs to be guidelines, rules to follow, without which the society as we see crumbles, men don’t even know what being a man is, women, the same. It is oppression because nothing else matters apart from acquiring worldly possession and esteem. The Kalimah: La illaha ila Llah liberates man from the oppression and tyranny of other men and the worship of other Gods, which includes obsession with materialism.

Again, Allah states in the Qur'an: "Whoever rejects false deities and believes in Allah, has grasped a firm branch that will never break".

This is yet another reason for the war on Islam because with the Truth can you be released. Most of the ahl-Kitab have already followed in the wave of materialism because their faiths have been invaded to such an extent the divine is practically gone from them. They have naught to believe in.

The sad part for those who forsake the next world for this one is that they will never be satisfied. Materialism never stops until you are reduced to poverty.
Though provoking story from the Arrivals series
A man sat alone
Drenched deep in sadness
And all the animals drew near to him and said:
“We do not like to see you so sad…Ask us for whatever you wish and you shall have it.”
The man said: “I want to have good sight”
The vulture replied: “You shall have mine”
The man said: “I want to be strong”
The jaguar said: “You shall be strong like me”
Then the man said: “I long to know the secrets of the earth”
The serpent replied: “I shall show them to you”
And so it went with all the animals.
And when the man had all the gifts that they could give…
…he left.
Then the owl said to the other animals:
“Now the man knows much and is able to do many things”
The deer said: “The man has all that he needs, now his sadness will stop”
But the owl replied: “No”
“I saw a hole in the man, deep like a hunger he will never feel…It is what makes him sad and what makes him want…he will go on taking and taking…until one day the world will say: “I am no more and I have nothing left to give”

"What is the life of this world but amusement and play? But verily the Home in the Hereafter, that is life indeed, it they but knew." (Surah Al-Ankabut -The Spider: (29:64)

We have been programmed to think that religion is old fashioned and out dated (when really it is the cure) and to invest in the present and that the here after is an illusion. This is exactly the opposite of what Christ taught. This is the Anti-Christ (Dajjal) doctrine. We only live once so indulge, life is short so consume all you can! Deep rooted materialism

Dunya- illusionary element of the world, reaching out for grapes you can’t grasp, always evades you.
Shaytana- to make distant
Akhira- eternal

Shaytan makes us feel like akhira is so far away and the dunya is here and even when people fail to have the dunya, they resort to suicide.

We chase this paper and and the family is the onepaying the price, we work longer hours for less pay, and the family disintergrates. The night is made to behave like the day… http://shelooks.blogspot.com/2009/03/manhood-womanhood-pride-in-our-natures.html

Rasul sallalahu alayhi wasalam said that If the son of Adam had a mountain of gold, he would want a second one.
We are our souls put in a physical body, the body is the tool. Yet this world neglects the soul and focuses on the tool. Feeding it, beautifying it, using it to commit zina when in the end, it will be a witness against us.
People are preoccupied with ‘entertainment’ when the ship is sinking, we are not really being informed when we watch news, we are being sold for profit. When Paris Hilton is on CNN, you ask yourself if you really will know the truth if you rely on them to give it to you. When the truth is hidden from view, the picture looks perfect and the wars are being fought behind the scenes while the majority are in a trance-like state, “doing all to live for the moment”.
The moment of Qiyamah will soon be here, and that is the moment we should be living for.

It is not the case dear reader that we aspire for poverty, the last prophet Muhammad (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) advised

Consequently, we can see that the obsession with materialism is incompatible with Islam. Our life and our possessions are for Allah alone:

"Be of good cheer. Set your hopes on what will bring upon happiness. It is not poverty that I fear for you, but I fear that you will become engrossed with world as those before you did and that you will pursue it as those before you pursued it and that it will destroy you as it destroyed them".

This middle path requires us to utilise our resources and talents, of which Allah has so mercifully bestowed upon us, but not to fall prey to obsession with materialism:

"Leave me alone (to deal with him) whom I have created alone and to whom I have granted resources vast…and to whose life I gave so wide a scope and yet, greediliy desires that I give more" [74: 11-15].

Our only choice is to accept the sovereignty of Allah, and proclaim that he is the most supreme. Do we prohibit all that negates His authority, make sure that we totally submit to Him and no other false God, no other false force and no other false obsession? If we really do aspire for the latter option, the option to submit to Allah, then know dear reader that there is hope.
This is subject is greatly linked to the forthcoming post inshallah that will focus on our chakras, humans are souls encased in their physical bodies. The physical is not the important part even though today the soul is usually malnourished while the outer is ornamented.

WAR ON ISLAM...Why? part 4

2. The Fastest Growing Religion on Earth

Hilary Clinton once remarked that Islam is the fastest growing religion in 1996, and today her comments are still very much confirmed by the new Islamic renaissance. Paradoxically, one of the reasons for this is the dire and deliberate misrepresentation by the media. Unfortunately, many people, or more accurately cattle are falling into the den of ignorance on this issue but a growing number are pushed by the intense coverage of Islam in the media to question whether the implication that Islam is evil is a valid one. By the Grace of God, they revert in the thousands.

A revert, not a convert because a Muslim is one who submits. Submits to the way Allah Ta'allah has asked for him to follow. All babies have none to protect them except Allah, they are all Muslim until they choose to convert to another faith or to follow none.
Therefore if, in later life, they decide Islam is the right religion for them, they must revert to the religion of their birth and again submit their will to Allah, making them reverts.

The reason of this incorrect reporting on the part of the media stems directly from who owns the media. Whoever owns the media owns the minds of the cattle. The few independent thinkers throughout the bombardment of misinformation, can decipher the real picture.

Strangely enough a vast number of the reverts are women who supposedly will be degrading the revered status of feminist dominance the West has bestowed upon them. They also implement the hijab and even at times the niqab a symbol of oppression in the west. Ironically they view it as a symbol of freedom. The West fails to see the real oppression is the constant exploitation of the woman’s body to the extent that she is but a sex object with a pretty face. Islam ensures that the woman is judged by her inner beauty, a term whose use is finding no purpose in the West.

Islam is the second largest religion after Christianity (or what’s left of the Christians). Reverts have been from all walks of life; the less fortunate to the wealthy, from the high school drop outs to the scientists and astronauts as well as people from all ethnicities.

"In societies where you have minorities that are discriminated against, I think they may find an appeal in Islam," said Waleed Kazziha of American University in Cairo whose words can find evidence in the reversion of African Americans and Black South Africans. The hypocrisy of the democracy of the two countries (USA and South Africa) where wealth is stagnant on a particular race and a cycle of permanent poverty faces other races. Islam as a means of breaking these barriers was expressed best by Malcolm X who said: "America needs to understand Islam, because this is the one religion that erases from its society the race problem. Throughout my travels in the Muslim world, I have met, talked to, and even eaten with people who in America would have been considered white, but the white attitude was removed from their minds by the religion of Islam. I have never before seen sincere and true brotherhood practiced by all together, irrespective of their color."

FACTS & FIGURES

50,000 French accepted Islam in 50 years, a French intelligence report revealed, saying that most of the converters were heathens "who embraced Islam to fill their spiritual vacuum." http://www.islamonline.net/English/News/2003-10/08/article04.shtml
In the UK, http://www.islamonline.net/English/News/2004-02/26/article03.shtml , thousands of the wealthier members of society are reverting finding a religion that fills what materialism cannot.
In the USA, there are about 7 million Muslims in the USA about 30% being reverts. http://www.islamawareness.net/Fastest/niche.html
In South Africa, the spread of Islam very evident in the Black populations http://www.iol.co.za/index.php?set_id=1&click_id=139&art_id=qw1100423885802B264
In Australia there are about 21, 000 muslims with even the oppressed Aborigines finding peace in Islam. http://www.islamawareness.net/Fastest/australia.html

Even after the never-ending propaganda against Islam and countless false-flag operations perpetrated framing Islam, In Suratul-Nasr, Allah Ta’alah states that :

وَرَأَيْتَ النَّاسَ يَدْخُلُونَ فِى دِينِ اللَّهِ

(And you see that the people enter Allah's religion in crowds) –Surat Nasr (2)

Islam offers scientific and spiritual evidence that it is the right way.
Islam does not only ask the believer to have faith without proofs.

Islam is logic. The very Tauheed, Oneness of God is as uncomplicated as you can get. There is proofs that previous messengers were only sent to give this message. God is One, worship Him. There is no mention of the word Trinity in the Bible and as I will expound in later parts of this subject, is a man-made idea. 3 in 1 god? Also, it is a religion without barriers, any one can be a Muslim, it was a religion sent to the world with the miracle of the Quran unchanged.

Truly they are scared that the people will start realising the truth in this religion and the obvious divinity. So they have continuously painted a horrible picture of islam so people are put off, but as usual it backfires and people research why islam is so evil and then fall in love with its purity and indeed become muslims. Subhannallah!

"Had We sent down this Qur'an on a mountain, you would surely have seen it humbling itself and rending asunder by the fear of Allah. Such are the parables which We put forward to mankind that they may reflect." [Qur'an, 59:21]

THE WAR ON ISLAM......why? Part 3

1. Economic threat

Oh how I wish there was really a free market. Ever read Shakespeare’s, Merchant of Venice? Well that sums it up completely. Back in the day when Europe was Christian and the law was Christian, money had value. There was no lending on interest. Usury was a means of enslavement. When the lender can rest and the money is making money, he’s reaping what is being sown by others, other’s sweat! Jesus entered the temple or synagogue (as he was a Jew, not a Christian, ha!) and saw the worshippers were being ripped off. Normal money wasn’t allowed in the temple, the temple had special money. But when there was an exchange, the lenders were not exchanging it equal to equal. They were having a profit! I am not a bible quoter but here goes (this is for the Christians)

Matthew[21:13] And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.

Following this the Church has always outlawed usury. The Jews who changed their Torah which used to say Usury is unacceptable but now say that Usury is unacceptable between 2 Jews. Thus the gentiles were fair game. The Jews became the money lenders when Jesus (peace and blessings on him) was no longer on earth. So slowly Europe lost the war on Usury and became its centre.

This is a reason why they would never have a true shariah based country. It would automatically exclude it from their(Jewish bankers) control. By muslims being in the billions today, there is a great untapped source of riba money from insurance, morgages, loans and other illegal lending. By breaking Islam (ha) they would enslave the 1.5 billion or so muslims.

WAR ON ISLAM.....why? Part 2

"They try to put out the light of Allah with their mouths. However, the light of Allah will continue to glow even if the unbelievers hate it." Sura As-Saff 61:8

How many lies are the people fed, how many! Subhanallah.

LIES&MISCONCEPTIONS:

The Prophet sallallahu alayhim wa sallam’s character.

If you want to know the truth, if you call yourself intelligent or educated, then firstly do not rely on here say. People are so lazy these days if one random person says something the rest follow like zombies. If you want to really know the blessed man, not what a muslim says, read what Michael Hart wrote as to why he featured Muhammad sallallahuu alayki wasalam as the most influential man in the world
http://peacethought.com/Prophet%20Muhammad.htm
Mahatma Gandhi,

speaking on the character of Muhammad in Young India
He must be called the Saviour of Humanity. I believe that if a man like him were to assume the dictatorship of the modern world, he would succeed in solving its problems in a way that would bring it much needed peace and happiness.
The 'modern world' finds it hard to swallow Muhammad sallallahu alayhu wasalam's marriages. A non muslim explains it simply:

But do you mean to tell me that the man who in the full flush of youthful vigour, a young man of four and twenty (24), married a woman much his senior, and remained faithful to her for six and twenty years (26), at fifty years of age when the passions are dying married for lust and sexual passion? Not thus are men's lives to be judged. And you look at the women whom he married, you will find that by every one of them an alliance was made for his people, or something was gained for his followers, or the woman was in sore need of protection.
Annie Besant,

The Life and Teachings of Muhammad, Madras, 1932, p. 4.}}
Head of the state as well as the Church, he was Caesar and Pope in one; but, he was pope without the pope's claims, and Caesar without the legions of Caesar, without a standing army, without a bodyguard, without a palace, without a fixed revenue. If ever any man had the right to say that he ruled by a Right Divine, it was Mohammad, for he had all the power without instruments and without its support.
Bosworth Smith, Mohammed & Mohammedanism,

London, 1874, p. 92; quoted at IslamOnLine.net
My choice of Muhammad to lead the list of the world's most influential persons may surprise some readers and may be questioned by others, but he was the only man in history who was supremely successful on both the religious and secular level.
Michael H. Hart,

The 100: A Ranking of the Most Influential Persons in History, New York: Hart Publishing Company, Inc., 1978, page. 33.
If greatness of purpose, smallness of means, and astounding results are the three criteria of human genius, who could dare to compare any great man in modern history with Muhammad? The most famous men created arms, laws and empires only. They founded, if anything at all, no more than material powers which often crumbled away before their eyes. This man moved not only armies, legislations, empires, peoples and dynasties, but millions of men in one-third of the then inhabited world; and more than that, he moved the altars, the gods, the religions, the ideas, the beliefs and souls. . . his forbearance in victory, his ambition, which was entirely devoted to one idea and in no manner striving for an empire; his endless prayers, his mystic conversations with God, his death and his triumph after death; all these attest not to an imposture but to a firm conviction which gave him the power to restore a dogma. This dogma was twofold, the unity of God and the immateriality of God; the former telling what God is, the latter telling what God is not; the one overthrowing false gods with the sword, the other starting an idea with words.Philosopher, orator, apostle, legislator, warrior, conqueror of ideas, restorer of rational dogmas, of a cult without images; the founder of twenty terrestrial empires and of one spiritual empire, that is Muhammad. As regards all standards by which human greatness may be measured, we may well ask, is there any man greater than he?
Alphonse de Lamartine-French Historian

Islam being spread by the sword

I think the reason this idea has come about is because of the concept of jihad. Jihad means struggle, not attack. Jihad could be against oneself. Tearing yourself away from the fake life’s pleasures. Fighting shaytan when he tries to tempt. Jihad can be resisting alcohol. Then there is jihad of the tongue. Defending one’s religion, ones freedom to believe in the One Lord and his Prophets. Then there’s the physical jihad, again defending not attacking. One cannot just blow up people who do no wrong e.g 9/11 http://www.911proof.com/ or 7/7 http://video.google.co.uk/videosearch?q=7+7+bombings&www_google_domain=www.google.co.uk&hl=en&emb=0&aq=0&oq=7%2F7+#
People are joining Islam at a very high rate. And Allah Ta’llah said: And thou seest mankind entering the religion of Allah in troops,Then hymn the praises of thy Lord, and seek forgiveness of Him. Lo! He is ever ready to show mercy.(Surah Nasr) and the reason is not bin Laden at their doorstep. Thousands of converts after 9/11. Why?
http://www.themodernreligion.com/convert/sword.html

The Muslim women are oppressed

Islam gave rights to women before any government decided to. The 7th Century Rights of women are unbelieveably sufficient to this day. They include, among others:
1. The right and duty to obtain education.
2. The right to have their own independent property.
3. The right to work to earn money if they need it or want it.
4. Equality of reward for equal deeds.
5. The right to express their opinion and be heard.
6. The right to provisions from the husband for all her needs and more.
7. The right to negotiate marriage terms of her choice.
8. The right to obtain divorce from her husband, even on the grounds that she simply can't stand him. (pls note that God deeply frowns upon divorce as a solution unless there is hardly any other alternative but it does not mean that men have more right to divorce their wives than women do.)
9. The right to keep all her own money (she is not responsible to maintain any relations).
10. The right to get sexual satisfaction from her husband.
11. custody of their children after divorce.
12. to refuse any marriage that does not please them
Allah Ta’alah shows the equality before the Lord of man and woman: “For Muslim men and women - for believing men and women, for devout men and women, for true men and women, for men and women who are patient and constant, for men and women who humble themselves, for men and women who give in charity, for men and women who fast (and deny themselves), for men and women who guard their chastity, and for men and women who engage much in God's praise - for them has God prepared forgiveness and great reward.”
(Qur'an 33:35)

Again with all the reverts, the Western and 'free' women are coming to Islam by the thousands

http://www.revertmuslims.com/interview1.htm

are they just stupid or brainwashed? They veil themselves. Why? Because the hijab is a weapon of freedom. She guards her body from any perverse gazes of men. She has that power. Her beauty is not in her body but in her heart. Her beauty is for her husband, and the sanctity of marriage. Her words are more powerful than a low cut top. That is respect, that is dignity and that is a real woman. A question....is a nun oppressed?

Have you noticed it or have you been living in a hole. Everywhere you go, the treatment of Muslims as second class citizens. At every authority welding institution; airports, schools, I don’t need to post links as the proofs are self evident. Just last month someone close to me was on their way back to UK and as they were getting comfortable in the plane, they were told that their travel document was not sufficient, what?! So why let someone in your country if you won’t let them out? So they took them in custody, yes jail where they had to pay bond, wait for a about month to get approval from the UK authority and when they finally had this, they had to pay for the ticket fare! There was the very great probability that they would be sacked for not being in work for almost a month! But luckily the boss was a fellow muslim and saw immediately what happened. Religious profiling.


So, who is targeted?

• Arabs: any arabs, Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, you are a terrorist.

• Men having beards, a taj, turban, fez or doppa. There was the incident of Balbir Singh Sodhi the Sikh man murdered in an attack shortly after September 11. http://www.sikhspectrum.com/102002/valerieb.htm

• Hijabis http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1141/is_11_39/ai_96894748/ and I even have my own testimony to this. Every day, if looks could kill…I would be dead a billion times. I’m black and a hijabi, double trouble.
• People with Arab sounding names. I won’t even say Muslim names because an Arab name is sufficient for an ignoramus to conclude, terrorist. Funny enough you can now meet ‘Mo’, ‘Tuma’, and being ashamed of our beautiful Arabic names.
There is evidently concerted efforts to stamp on this religion and anything to do with it since the crusades. Today it has simply become so wide-spread and so in-your-face and so obvious that even a non Muslim can see it as a cause for concern. But Why?
Islam has become the scapegoat. One has to only see the false flag operations that have been purportedly linked to Muslims and the propaganda we call news that leaves a sheep to conclude that Islam is evil and Muslims are evil. It’s funny how we are branded all this and at the same time provoked (Gaza, Guantanamo Bay, Al-Ghraib and all the prisons in Iraq and Afghanistan, Lebanon, the Danish cartoons) to such an extent of boiling rage and cannot do or say anything because it is anti-Semitic or hate speech or terror talk!

Okay, so once we see Islam is not the enemy, we can proceed. But if not, one has to go to my previous posts and links and apply logic.
So, why? Why tarnish the name of this religion, a religion which means peace, purity, submission and obedience. In the religious sense, Islam means submission to the will of God and obedience to His law. Here’s is the answer. The truth may shock you but if you are familiar with Islam you won’t be very surprised.
