Sudan: Reconciliation will Continue In Spite of Garang's Death

JDL Tries to Break up Small Protest at Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles

London bombings- Montreal reactions

The Gazette's condescending editorial

Condemn state terrorism also

Who has the Right to Speak on Behalf of U.S. Muslims?
When we Pray, What do we Affirm?
Dajjali Fatwa of Government Lackeys Condemned.

• Du'a [supplication, prayer] is an affirmation of the following:
  1. We accept Allah alone as our Creator, Sustainer, source of Guidance, One who gives life and death.
  2. We are Muslims.
  3. We are in need of guidance and help; we are needy and Allah is the source of everything we need.
• The Qur'an, 2:186 tells us that prayer [du'a] is a two way process. Allah responds to us but for the process to be complete, we must listen to what Allah has to say to us.
• What should we pray for? It's best given in Abraham's prayer: "O my Lord! make me one who establishes [obligatory] prayer [salat], and also from among my children..." [14:40] Thus the process of liberation is through obligatory prayers, given in Hadith as five times a day. We should ask for forgiveness not only for ourselves and our children but also for our parents. Remember Abraham's father was a non-believer. Allah may or may not accept but we should still pray. As numerous Hadith show, we must soften our hearts and learn compassion for humanity in our daily work. Forgiveness will come from Allah if we forgive others.

• We have terrorism right here in America when the Groene family's children were kidnaped. The 8 year old boy was raped and dismembered. The 9 year old girl was repeatedly raped and her life was saved just in time. Did these groups issue a FATWA about this terrorism? No! Why not? Doesn't the Qur'an tell us that humanity is one? [Sura al-hujurat.]
• Remember, the U.S. bombed Afgfhanistan in the sacred month of Ramadan and killed thousands of civilians. Did these groups issue a Fatwa? No
• Remember last Ramadan, the city of Fallujah was attacked by the U.S. and destroyed house-by-house, mosque by mosque. Did these groups issue a Fatwa? No!
• The bombing and killing in Ramadan by the U.S. air force and marines continued even during LAYLATUL QADR, the most blessed nights of Ramadan. [The Qur'an 97:1-5] Did these groups issue a Fatwa? NO!
• Israel has committed genocide in Palestine, expelled the entire population and established itself on Palestinian land and continues to violate all norms of humanity and decency. Did these groups issue a Fatwa? NO!
• Do these groups have the right to issue a Fatwa in the name of the Muslims of America? The Qur'an has laid down the principle of mutual consultation and consent [Shura] in ALL matters which will affect people. Did these groups consult the Muslims of America? NO!
• This congregation is a cross section of Muslims in America by nationality, race and gender. Did these groups consult ANY ONE OF YOU? Do you know anyone whom they have consulted? If the answer is 'yes' even in one case, I'll wait after prayers: do let me know.
• We Muslims in America are non-violent, law abiding citizens. We do not break the law, we pay taxes, we are industrious and creative and a blessing for this country. There is ABSOLUTELY NO REASON that we should apologize for what happened in London. Why should we take on the burden of collective guilt when we have done nothing related to terrorism?
• These groups rushed to issue the Fatwa even before legal proceeding had been completed in Britain.
• The only reason why these groups are able to indulge in Fatwa mongering is owing to their financial resources, the expensive offices they have set up and their intense desire to cosy up the people in power. They DO NOT REPRESENT the Muslims of America.
• This was truly a Dajjali Fatwa as it was prompted by the signals of the people in power and owing to the suffering of the British while it ignored the suffering of the Muslim Ummah.
• Prophet Muhammad, pbuh, has warned us against Dajjal who is one-eyed [looks only at one side of life] and told us that Allah is not one-eyed [looks at humanity in its totality]. [Sahih Bukhari.]
• If you feel stressed out, do what Prophet Muhammad, pbuh, told Fatima, r.a, to do: Say: Subhan Allah 33 times [Allah alone is without fault], Alhamdulillah 33 times [All praise belongs to Allah], Allahu Akbar 34 times [Allah is the greatest].

Tony Blair HAS Lost his Marbles: Seems to be Advised by Zionists and Guided by International Jewry

• Imams and other Islamic activists can be deported for "fostering hatred," "advocating violence," and "validating violence." It's a grab bag of thought control which can interpret anything in the Qur'an and Hadith as "hatred" to deport Muslims.
• Web sites, bookshops, Islamic Centers, Muslim groups which are in favor of Jihad or in opposition to Britain's pro-war plocies will be dismantled. Thought control again.
• Glorifying "terrorism" ANYWHERE will be illegal. So if someone says, the Palestinians have the right to hit Jewish settlements, YOU ARE OUT!
• British citizens can be stripped of their citizenship for working "contrary to the interests of UK." {There goes democracy after just ONE attack.}
• List of preachers will be prepared for deportation of those who speak out. A DATA BASE will be prepared to include all British Muslims for proper screening.
• HIZBUT TAHRIR and Al-Muhajeroun have been "proscribed" [euphemism for "banned."] [New Trend's information is that these two groups have NEVER been involved in violence. In fact Hizbut Tahrir is notorious as a debating society of intellectuals who have no solution for any problem except for the setting up of Caliphate in the future far, far away. Al-Muhajeroun has often uttered hot rhetoric, even daring to praise the 9.11 attackers, but all that was permitted under British law. There is no evidence that anyone became a terrorist owing to Muhajeroun leader Bakri Muhammad's "in your face" kind of statements.
• Blair also disclosed that he is in touch with the regimes in Jordan and Algeria and is preparing to deport Muslims to these regimes which are known for torture, gross violations of human rights and abuse of basic decencies.
• The worst sufferers of the Blair edicts will be Palestinians as the entire jihad response to the Israeli occupation of Palestine is being declared "illegal."
• New Trend analysts say that Pakistan's General Musharraf may be responsible for the ban on Hizbut Tahrir and Al-Muhajeroun as the general recently complained loudly that the two groups have been calling for his overthrow. In England, one could call for anyone's overthrow. Now it has become an excuse for the display of British muscle.
• It's obvious that Blair has lost the battle of ideas. The Soviet Union could not stop samizdat when there was no Internet. Blair will get nowhere in this massive attempt to stop the momentum of Islam.

Ayman al-Zawahiri re-Emerges: Why Can't the Islamic Leader be Captured in spite of $25 million bounty?

• Al-Zawahiri looks much older, with an impressive beard, but very healthy and dynamic.
• He has a prayer mark on his forehead from repeated prostrations.
• He wears a black turban, the sign of an Imam.
• His kurta or white shirt was unwrinkled and sparkling clean.
• He shook his finger repeatedly, purportedly, at Bush and Blair and his finger never trembled: A sign of great physical power at that age.
• His message holds no comfort for the western powers and certainly no compromise. He carefully avoided taking credit for London but promised more retaliation for attacks on the Muslim world.
• It's quite a blow for the war on terror which has been putting in a tremendous effort to find Al-Zawahiri, Osama and Mullah Omar.
• By his side lay an automatic rifle. This man is nothing but trouble for the western powers.
• It's also very troubling for Hosni Mubarak, the Egyptian dictator. Al-Zawahiri is an Egyptian. Many years back Al-Zawahiri, then almost unknown, was picked up along with hundreds of Egyptians who were tortured by the Egyptian regime. The prisoners could not speak English, so the regime let journalists visit them once. It was a disaster, for Al-Zawahiri knew English and he told the journalists about the torture. [CNN has often shown a video of that encounter, with the young Al-Zawahiri beginning his statement with: "Who are we? We are Muslims..." and then giving details of the torture. It may be quite true that TERRORISM BEGAN IN THE EGYPTIAN TORTURE CELLS when the Egyptian Pharoah arrested and tortured hundreds of young Egyptians because they opposed the RECOGNITION of ISRAEL and wanted to kill Sadat as a traitor.]
• Today, looking at Al-Zawahiri on video, Mubarak may be beginning to realize the consequences of torturing Muslims.
