5 Reasons why the EU Referendum has nothing to do with Islam

5 reasons why the EU Referendum has nothing to do with Islam

(1) The EU Referendum is a debate between globalists and nationalists. The globalists have a neo-liberal agenda that seeks to exploit labour via the single market and the nationalists believe in exploiting labour via the removal of protectionism. The debate is between capitalists, by capitalists for capitalists. It's not an ideological debate but a political difference about how to best exploit cheap labour in which both camps believe in Capitalism.

(2) The immigration and refugee issue is a red herring thats used by nationalists to exploit nationalistic chauvinism. European countries with access to the single market must allow free movement of EU citizens whether in the EU (like the UK) or outside it (like Norway and Switzerland). The refugee crisis has nothing to do with EU membership. The UK is not in the Schengen passport-free travel agreement so there are border checks on migrants. This argument is a desperate attempt to exploit the flaming nationalism of Brits.

(3) Islamophobia is not a far right extremist idea but is the inexorable outcome of state engineered ideological hatred for Islam that exists from the highest echelons of Western states out of fear that Islam can rise as an ideological alternative to Western capitalism. The attack on the Islamic culture is intended to radicalise the Non-Muslim populations against Islam so that draconian legislation can be passed domestically and to act as a casus belli for European foreign policy. Ironically there are more far-right MEPs in the European Parliament than there are British Conservatives and Labour MEPs put together!

(4) The EU Referendum will not fundamentally alter the war on terror paradigm in which Islam is portrayed as the ideological enemy of Western civilization. Do you think the rise of "Islamic terrorism" across Europe is going to tighten security against Muslims or relax them! The next phase of the European project is for political integration which will further securitize Europe, have the Muslim remain camp forgot that the next EU President wants to ban Muslims?

(5) Islam has defined it's system for the world. It's called the Caliphate/Khilafah that existed for over 1300 years. It's based on the Shari'ah and not secular liberal politics that exclude Allah SWT from life. The Prophet PBUH and the Sahabah RA would never engage in the EU debate today just how they stayed out of the politics of Abyssinia.

Overall in this debate, I must say the Muslim remain camp has shown a rudimentary understanding of politics and what the European project is about. Conforming to the status quo is always a trap and some Muslims are being led down a garden path.

An advice to Muslims working in the financial sector

Assalam wa alaikum wa rahmatullah wabarakatahu, Dear Brothers & Sisters, We are saddened to see Muslims today even those who practise many of the rules of Islam are working in jobs which involve haram in the financial sector. They are working in positions which involve usurious (Riba) transactions, insurance, the stock market and the like. Even though many of the clear evidences regarding the severity of the sin of Riba are known, some have justified their job to themselves thinking that they are safe as long as they are not engaged in the actual action of taking or giving Riba. Brothers & Sisters, You should know that the majority of jobs in the financial sector, even the IT jobs in this area are haram (prohibited) as they involve the processing of prohibited contracts. If you work in this sector, do not justify your job to yourself because of the fear of losing your position or having to change your career, fear Allah as he should be feared and consider ...

Q&A: Age of separating children in the beds?

Question: Please explain the hukm regarding separation of children in their beds. At what age is separation an obligation upon the parents? Also can a parent sleep in the same bed as their child? Answer: 1- With regards to separating children in their beds, it is clear that the separation which is obligatory is when they reach the age of 7 and not since their birth. This is due to the hadith reported by Daarqutni and al-Hakim from the Messenger (saw) who said: When your children reach the age of 7 then separate their beds and when they reach 10 beat them if they do not pray their salah.’ This is also due to what has been narrated by al-Bazzar on the authority of Abi Rafi’ with the following wording: ‘We found in a sheet near the Messenger of Allah (saw) when he died on which the following was written: Separate the beds of the slave boys and girls and brothers and sisters of 7 years of age.’ The two hadiths are texts on the separation of children when they reach the age of 7. As for the...

Authenticity of ahadith on tall buildings in Makkah?

Question Are these   ḥadith  sound? Are the references provided correct and accurate? When you see the belly of Makkah will be cleft open and through it will be dug out river-like passages (i.e. tunnels) (or water in the road to Makkah), and you see the buildings surpass its mountains, then take care (or beware, or a variant has: then know that the matter is at hand, or then understand that the time of trial (Judgment day) is near at hand). [Narrated by Al-Azraqi in the Book of reports about Makkah – Kitab Akhbaar Makkah, Hadiyth-1725; A specific Hadiyth (in fact several related-Hadiyths) which prophesizes about this Tower. Itha ra’aitun mecca bu’ijat katha’ima, wa ya-tasawa bunyanuha ru’usa jibaliha, faqad athalati as-Sa’atu. When you see Mecca, its mountain with holes (pierced through them), and its buildings reach its mountain tops, then as-Sa’ah (the Hour) has already cast its shadow. [Suyuti] So when you see in Makkah that channels have already been dug (or tunnels b...
