Islamic Revival

It is narrated on the authority of Abu Sa'id that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: On the Day of Judgment there will be a flag for every person guilty of treachery. It will be raised in proportion to the extent of his guilt; and there is no guilt of treachery more serious than the one committed by the ruler of men. [Muslim] What could lead a ruler to betray his nation? Cause huge damage to the security of his country, sell out Kashmir, kill its citizens with its own army, humiliate the architects of its nuclear programme and disappear its sons? What kind of ruler could seek to look after the needs of other nations whilst his own suffers? What kind or ruler could have great sympathy for Western nations and show little for his own? This type of ruler is an agent, in Pakistan this man is called General Pervez Musharraf. Muslims are increasingly sensing the reasons that allow agents like Musharraf to rise to power. Corrupting the Elites The kafir colonialists unders

The following is a translation from Arabic. Question: Can wife take money forcibly from a miserly husband without permission of state or husband? Can this be a proof for individual taking rights forcibly from kaafir state? Answer: It obligatory on the man to provide nafaqah for his wife. If he is a miser and does not spend on his wife then it is allowed for his wife to take from her husbands wealth without permission that amount which is enough by custom (bil-ma’roof) for her and her children. The evidence for that is what Bukhari narrated on the authority of ‘Aisha that Hind the wife of Abu Sufyan said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, indeed Abu Sufyan is a miserly man. He does not provide me with the maintenance that my children and I need except what I take from him without his knowledge.’ He (saw) said: ‘Take that which suffices you and your children in a fitting manner (bil ma’roof).’ As for when you have a financial right from the state, such as if the state usurped your wealth or confis

The following is a translation from a recent Arabic political analysis Q&A. Question: The Darfur issue continues to remain hot and intensify, especially of late. Is Darfur becoming a region similar to the separated southern Sudan? Or is it different, will it simply be given more administrative powers and remain part of Sudan? What has happened to the issue of International forces with the African forces, which was raised in various statements and conferences, the last of which was the Darfur conference held in Libya on 28th April, 2007 C.E. Answer: (We have dwelt at length on the subject of Darfur in reply to a question on 28th July, 2004 C.E.) The Darfur issue is different in certain aspects from the issue of southern Sudan. The situation of southern Sudan is that it is discussed as a separate territory independent from Sudan to serve as base for the United States for political and military purposes in Africa. In other words, America is not content with having its agents as ruler

The following is a translation from Arabic. The German Interior Minister Wolfgang Shoelbe on the second Wednesday of May 2007 C.E called for an Islamic Conference for the second time where 15 delegates represented the Muslims and another 15 represented Germany with the purpose of discussing ways to integrate Muslims in Germany. The apparent aim was to assist Muslims residing in Germany to integrate and carve a German Islam. This is how the interior minister declared in the conference when he said: “….and to improve the mutual coexistence between Muslims and majority of the society”. Before we begin to delve into the agenda of the conference and its aims, we would like to disseminate the interior minister’s inaugural speech addressed to the Muslims in the Islamic World. This was not objected to by the so-called Muslims’ representatives in the least; on the other hand, in the context in which he expressed his well-veiled views, these representatives were filled with a sense of satisfacti

The following is a translation from a recent Arabic political analysis Q&A. Question: It has been observed in the aftermath of the Democratic Party’s victory in the mid-term elections to the US Congress (Senate and the House of Representative), there is an apparent shift in the style of them addressing the Middle East Conflict concerning Palestine, as well as towards Iraq. This was marked during the visit of Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House of Representatives visit to the region. It is also evident from the stand taken by the Democrats on the funding of the Iraq war. Does all this mean that a definite shift has taken place in the US policy for the region? Answer: Countries like the US have an institutionalised policy-making apparatus in place and they do not indulge in ad-hoc, off-hand and short-term policy making. Their policies, especially the broader policies and fundamental frame works are adopted after exhaustive studies and due contemplation, therefore, though the men in po

The following is a translation from a recent Arabic political analysis Q&A: Question: The Nuclear crisis of Iran has now become an oft-repeating issue, negotiations, failure of negotiations and now referred to the UN Security Council, which passes a resolution and allows Iran a deadline of a month or two to comply with it. Then there is a report by its Secretary General to the effect that Iran has not complied. This is followed by yet another resolution and another deadline for Iran to comply, and this goes on….. How has this crisis developed and what is its current status? What are the chances of either the US or Israeli carrying out an attack? Further is there a link between this crisis and the North Korean Nuclear crisis? Answer: It is known that the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty (NPT) was carved out in 1968 C.E and Iran had become its signatory in 1970 C.E, and Iran under the Shah had begun its nuclear activity in collaboration with some European firms (French and German). K

The following is a translation from a recent Arabic political analysis Q&A: Question: It is evident from America’s actions in Kosovo that it seeks to separate it from Serbia. Why does America have to undertake this task which apparently is in the interest of the Muslims of Kosovo? This actually amounts to removing the nightmare of oppression, murders and throat-choking subjugation which the Serbs had imposed upon the Muslims. Answer: Serbia occupies a strategically vital location in the Balkan region, and has deep traditional, cultural and religious relations with the Christian Orthodox Russia. Now, especially after the fragmentation of Yugoslavia, in which Serbia had enjoyed a position of privilege and its capital Belgrade was the capital of Yugoslavia, Serbia has moved closer to Russia and acts as it’s front-line in the Balkans. It is under the Russian influence that Serbia is moving away from the European Union and opposes US policies in Balkan, which are aimed to gain influence

The following is a translation from a recent Arabic political analysis Q&A: Question: Since March 9th, 2007 when Musharraf suspended Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Pakistan, protests have flared up whenever the case for hearing has held its session. The court in its hearing on April 19th, 2007, accepted to look into the objections raised by the defence counsel (Former Interior Minister, I’tizaz Ihsan) that the court had no jurisdiction to hear the matter relating to the Chief Justice. The court announced that it will consider the objections in its hearing on 28th of April. Despite this the public protests have continued unabated. What has forced Musharraf to take this unpleasant step and only exacerbate people’s hatred for his rule which has already been there because of his support and assistance provided to America for launching its attacks on Afghanistan? He has further left the Kashmiri Mujahideen in lurch. Is he not afraid that people’s

The following is a translation from Arabic. بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم An Open letter to the National Unity Organisation and all Muslims The situation of divisions, schisms and dividing lines, that manifests in people being divided along tribal and nationalistic lines and the centre-right politics divided into government and opposition camps clinging on to their self interest and power is not something new to our land. But the interference of the international factor, i.e. the struggle between Europe and America over the African continent has resulted in intensified confrontation especially in our land and further deteriorated the situation, and has placed our land in a precarious situation vis-à-vis the warring international parties. This has resulted in separation of the southern portion as a result of the Nevasha accord and the Muslims are spilling the blood of their own brothers in Darfur and other places. As a result the country stands ready to disintegrate along sectarian and tribal

Polling data just released (April 24, 2007) in a rigorously conducted face-to-face University of Maryland/ WorldPublicOpinion.org interview survey of 4384 Muslims conducted between December 9, 2006 and February 15, 2007-1000 Moroccans, 1000 Egyptians, 1243 Pakistanis, and 1141 Indonesians-reveal that 65.2% of those interviewed-almost 2/3, hardly a "fringe minority"-desired this outcome (i.e., "To unify all Islamic countries into a single Islamic state or Caliphate" ), including 49% of "moderate" Indonesian Muslims. The internal validity of these data about the present longing for a Caliphate is strongly suggested by a concordant result: 65.5% of this Muslim sample approved the proposition "To require a strict application of Shari'a law in every Islamic country." Large majorities across all four countries believe the United States seeks to “weaken and divide the Islamic world.” On average 79 percent say they perceive this as a US goal, ranging
