Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Paris Mosque
Assalam alaikum, Built as a tribute to the French Muslims who died with the French Army in World War I, the mosque was completed in 1926 in a classical Moorish (Islamic Spain) style. Built with concrete, mosaics, wood carvings and iron brought from Morocco, it has a wonderful theme to it. Located just 5 minutes walk from the famous Notre dame, the mosque occupies a near central position for which we can thank the Parisian municipality for their donation of the land. Having visited Paris many times, I was shocked to learn of its proximity to the main tourist attractions, disappointed with myself for not having visited sooner. Thankfully my timing couldn't have been better as not only did I bump into a TV crew filming a short piece for France 2, one of the state TV channels, but I also met a man named Abdou, all the way from Morocco whose task was to repair the damaged mosaics at the mosque - and if you see the photos and video below, you can appreciate his wonderful talent! The following pictures and video clips relate my encounter on Saturday morning.

Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Should Muslims Be Allowed To Impose Islam On Others?
Many Muslim cab drivers in Minneapolis are refusing to allow passengers carrying alcohol in their cabs, saying it is against the Islamic Shariah [law] to do so. More than half the taxi drivers on the airport are Muslims, and as soon as they got a majority, they have resorted to imposing their beliefs on others. Imagine if you have just flown in from Baghdad after a long flight, you cant wait to get home, reconnect with your family, and share a glass of some exotic alcoholic drink that you purchased at the Dubai airport [a Muslim country] with your wife to celebrate your return home alive from Iraq. It is 2:00 AM, but your reunion is delayed because cab after cab, driven by Muslims, refuses to take you home once they spot you carrying alcohol. Sounds crazy, but sadly it is true. As a Muslim, I am both ashamed and shocked at this strange conduct of my coreligionists. In principle, Islam does not advocate imposition of Islamic values on others; there are several injunctions in Islamic sources which make this clear. To cite only two: Let there be no compulsion in religion [Quran: 2:256] To us shall be accounted our deeds, and to you, your deeds. Let there be no contention between us and you: God will bring us all together - for with Him is all journeys end [Quran, 42:15].But when it comes to contemporary Muslims, we must always remember, there is always an ocean between what Islam teaches in principle and what Muslims practice in reality. Most Muslims will acknowledge this readily. I call it the ocean of ignorance. Apparently, the cab drivers have provided the Metropolitan Airports Commission with a fatwa, dated June 6, 2006, from the Fatwa department of the local chapter of the Muslim American Society [MAS]. The fatwa proclaims that Islamic jurisprudence prohibits taxi drivers from carrying passengers with alcohol, because it involves cooperating in sin according to Islam. MAS, the organization behind this fitna [Arabic for contention and strife], is the American extention of the Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt, and a close affiliate of Islamic Circle of North America. MAS hypocritically run a public affairs department called Freedom Foundation. I guess it is seeking the freedom to infringe on the freedom of others. To be fair to them, Islamic sources do forbid alcohol consumption unequivocally [Quran 2:219] and Prophet Muhammad, may peace and blessings be upon him, also forbid trade in alcohol [Bukhari 34:297, 8:449, 34:429], but all these sources forbid selling and trading alcohol. Extending this ban to giving rides to tired travelers carrying alcohol for personal consumption requires an irrational and politically motivated leap that smells of mischief. Moderates and Muslims of goodwill should not stand for such thinly veiled attempts to sow discord. Most Muslim scholars and most Muslims of Minnesota will tell you that the fatwa is indeed without merit. And indeed many Muslim voices, yours truly included, have already condemned and ridiculed this position. Even in Saudi Arabia, which is usually the champion when it comes to extremely narrow, irrational and intolerant interpretations of Islam, non-Muslims are allowed to consume alcohol, and even carry them on flights. The alcohol issue is not really the problem. It is just the tip of the iceberg. It raises a fundamental and critical issue of whether Muslims who live in free and democratic societies can simultaneously demand freedom and tolerance for Islam while denying others the same. Can we and should we demand freedom to practice Islam, and then turn around and use these same freedoms to impose anachronistic understandings of Islam on others? What next? Will Muslim doctors working in ER refuse to administer to patients brought in from an accident site or with a heart attack because they have alcohol on their breath? Will Muslim doctors refuse to serve an HIV-positive patient because he or she is gay? Will Muslim firefighters refuse to save people who are caught in a fire in a place that sells alcohol? Will Muslim cops refuse to protect women who do not wear Hijab [head scarf]? Will Muslim teachers refuse to educate children because their mothers do not wear the veil? All of the above would entail supporting sin according to popular Muslim beliefs. If the cab episode in Minnesota becomes a norm - and MAS could make it so, as it claims that it is the biggest Muslim grass roots organization in America - can America then trust Muslims in any job where it is important to treat all people, Muslim and non-Muslim, sinner and Imam equally? Since 98% of Americans are non-Muslims, I am sure they routinely commit acts which according to Islam are sins, such as worshipping Jesus. Will Muslims stop doing business with them? Can Muslims live with those who do not share their beliefs? This is an important debate, especially for Muslim immigrants, who come to America with their religious baggage. Are we

Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Italian Muslims Fear Anti-veil Campaign
Italian Muslims Fear Anti-veil Campaign By Noha Hussein , IOL Correspondent Since the niqab (face-cover) is not a fard (obligation) we advised Muslim women not to wear it in order not to fuel the current debates, said Imam Abu Shwaima. MILAN - Italian Muslims insist that the current vicious campaign spearheaded by the right-wing Lega Nord party against face-cover is much ado about nothing in light of the very tiny minority of Muslim women who use it, fearing the controversy might drag on to include the hijab right. Certain political circles and groups are trying to create any problem concerning Islam so they can attract and shape the attention of neutral Italians, Ali Abu Shwaima, the imam f Segrate Mosque and the Islamic Centre of Milan, told IslamOnline.net. We don't have any intention to help them doing that by responding to such issues, he averred, referring to a recent fuss about face-cover. Imam Abu Shwaima said the Muslim minority is trying to ignore the debate in order not to prove the opposition point. In Italy there is no law that prohibits the veil or niqab so there is no need to address something that does not exist, it will only reinforce the opposition. Recently the veil has become a sign of terror and a sign of anti-integration to the Italian society specially in Milan where the Lega Nord is launching a campaign against the face cover. Party members last week distributed anti-veil flyers among the public in San Babila square in Milan while covering their faces, trying to make their point clear. The party is trying to gather signatures for a national law obliging women to be recognised in public places. Women who cover their faces would be arrested and fined. The Italian Senate is expected to discussion the issue of women and Islam, pushing further the veil topic into politics. A debate has been raging in the West about the niqab since former British foreign secretary and incumbent leader of the House of Commons Jack Straw called on Muslim women to remove their veils. The governing Christian Democratic Appeal (CDA) in the Netherlands has vowed to ban the Muslim face-veil if re-elected on Wednesday, November 22. Priorities Many Italian Muslims believe that the issue of face-cover is not a high priority and that the minority, estimated at some 1.5 million, should not be polarized in the debate. Since the niqab (face-cover) is not a fard (obligation) we advised Muslim women not to wear it in order not to fuel the current debates, said Imam Abu Shwaima. Islam sees hijab as an obligatory code of dress, not a religious symbol displaying one's affiliations. As for the niqab, the majority of Muslim scholars believe that a woman is not obliged to cover her face or hands, but it is up to her to decide. Mr. Hamza Piccardo - Secretary of the European Muslims network led by Swiss Muslim scholar Tariq Ramadan and the shura speaker for the UCOII union of the Muslim community in Italy, agreed. We have advised the sisters not to wear the niqab, we want to defend the Hijab and not an extreme choice that is not shared by everyone, he told IOL. Hamza asserts that a very small percentage of Muslim women do cover their faces. The Muslim community doesn't want to make a fuss out of it and amplify the dimension of the problem they want to solve and cover all the problems that Muslims in general face in Italy. Mrs. Nadeera, a Moroccan woman who has been living in Italy for the past six years, rejects any attempt to control the freedoms of others. It is the choice of others to wear a niqab or not, she told IOL. I myself do not wear it because I don't believe in it but I am not against it though. I wouldn't vote against it. I would only vote for the respect of others, said Nadeera, asserting that she feels comfortable with her hijab even though some Italians might not understand why she is wearing it. Vile Campaign Santanchè dismissed the veil as an instrument for feminine submission, claiming that Muslim women wear hijab because they are afraid, oppressed by the masculine culture. Abu Shwaima said Muslims are trying to introduce the peaceful message of Islam through state channels and programs. But he himself has been the victim of a vile campaign by the right-wing on claims of threatening MP Daniela Santanchè over the veil issue. I did not make any threats or assaults to Ms. Daniela. I simply replied back when she said that in Qur'an there is no verses that woman should be covered, he asserted. This is when I replied saying that she does not have a great knowledge of the Qur'an, added Abu Shwaima. Ms. Daniele wanted to make a fuss out of it claiming that I threatened her and therefore she needs to have a government

Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Zionism: The Real Enemy of Jews
Zionism The Real Enemy of Jews By Alan Hart WATCH LISTEN http://www.wakeupfromyourslumber.com/node/115 This video sums up his book quite nicely - read below. Zionism: The Real Enemy of Jews A Book for Peace By Alan Hart The book that mainstream publishers were too frightened to publish out of fear of offending Zionism is now published. Alan Hart's book, ZIONISM: THE REAL ENEMY OF THE JEWS gives an unparalleled insight into the unchecked rise of Zionist power and the inevitable consequences for all - the Jews of the world as well Moslems and Gentiles - if this power is not now checked. The consequence Alan foresees is a Clash of Civilisations, Judeo-Christian v Islamic, with, along the way, the unleashing of the twin monsters of anti-Semitism and Islamophobia. And one of the many questions he asks and answers is - How can these monsters be stopped from going on the rampage? As a correspondent for ITN's News At Ten and the BBC's Panorama programme, Alan covered what used to be called the Arab-Israeli conflict from both sides. And from his one-to-one private conversations with such leaders as Golda Meir, Mother Israel, and Yasser Arafat, Father Palestine, he was able to distinguish between what they really believed and feared as opposed to what they said in public for propaganda and myth-sustaining purposes. The result is a riveting read, all the more so because because of Alan's very personal style of story telling which makes each reader feel that the author is in conversation with him or her. It is a completely absorbing book, a page-turner.. Clare Short has described it as a magificent piece of work. The truth of Alan's words should give all communities - Jewish, Moslem and Gentile - pause for thought and hope. In August 2005...(as is replacing only last sentence with the following). What we Moslems (Muslims) have to ask ourselves is - are we strong enough to say the same? Alan himself is aware that most people of all faiths and none are frightened to criticise the Zionist state of Israel out of fear of being accused of anti-Semitism. But his whole book is the evidence of why it is perfectly possible to be passionately anti-Zionist without being in any way, shape or form anti-Semitic. Alan says: The charge of anti-Semitism is a blackmail card Zionism plays to silence critics of Israel's arrogance of power and to suppress informed and honest debate. If there is to be informed and honest debate about who must do what and why for peace, peoples of all faiths and none must overcome the fear of being falsely and maliciously accused of being anti-Semitic. ZIONISM AND TRUTH If Zionism could have been honest it would have said, in public, after the Nazi holocaust and Israel's unilateral declaration of independence in 1948, something like the following.Jews can never again trust Gentiles. We take it as a given that Jews will always be hated and that the monster of anti-Semitism will go on the rampage again. The Zionist state exists to be the refuge of last resort for Jews everywhere and is thus an insurance policy to guarantee the survival of the Jewish people. We will do whatever it takes to maintain this guarantee, and if what we do causes our state to be regarded as a pariah by the rest of the world, well, the rest of the world can go to hell. This truth could not be told because telling it would have been to admit, even to proclaim, that Zionism had no time or need for, and was estranged from, the moral principles and teachings of Judaism. Unable to tell the truth, Zionism had to tell a lie to justify its actions. The lie was that Israel - a Zionist state NOT a Jewish state - was in constant danger of annihilation. Except in Arab rhetoric, it never was. Not in 1948. Not in 1967. And not in 1973. a.. According to the first and still existing draft of Judeo-Christian history, Israel went to war in 1967 either because the Arabs attacked first or were intending to attack. The truth is that this was a war of Israeli aggression, not self-defense. Avi Shlaim was both right and wrong when he wrote in The Iron Wall that Israel did not go to war to take territory. The government of Israel headed by Prime Minister Eshkol with Rabin as chief of staff, did NOT; but Defense Minister Dayan, imposed upon Eshkol at the last minute in something close to a military coup, DID. The truth is that Dayan set a trap for Nasser and, for reasons of face, he was daft enough to walk into it. For Dayan the war of 1967 was about the creation of Greater Israel, Zionism's unfinished business of 1948. a.. Part of the untold truth (revealed in my book) is that the Arab

Re: Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Al-Jazeera English Hits Airwaves ( http://english.aljazeera.net )
I wish Al-Jazeera could show the following news to its viewers: Forced labor for MUSLIM children in Israeli prison www.palestinenet. org - Friday, 15 September 2006, 11:55 Many Palestinian children in Israeli Telmond Prison are being exploited by forced labor in which they must work eight hours for a few shekels, as reported by the Prisoners Information Center. One of the children made a statement after his release. The prison administration has forced all prisoners in Telmond Prison to work eight hours for very low wages. He went on to say, The Israeli soldiers come to the chambers at seven and force us to go with our legs tied with chains. The child added that his job was to stand under guard and pack plastic spoons in boxes. Even injured political prisoners are forced to work, according to Fridays Nablus-based report. A former prisoner stated, I had a broken bone but the soldiers forced me out of my cell to work anyway, without any consideration for the pain. There are approximately 375 Palestinians in Telmond Prison, with most of them being children. The oldest Palestinian in Telmond is 22 years old. The child laborers are given two meals per 24 hours, one at 11:00 pm and another at 6:00 am. Israeli prison officials also attempt to extract information from children regarding members of the armed resistance and engage in frequent psychological abuse According to the Information Center there are 200 children less than 16 years old in Israeli prisons begin subjected to some of the worst forms of exploitation and humiliation. A total of 376 Palestinian children are currently imprisoned in Israeli prisons and detention camps.

(Reuters) DOHA Ten years after changing the face of Arab television reporting by breaking taboos, the giant Al-Jazeera network launched on Wednesday, November 15, an English-speaking channel with a heavyweight cast of presenters and the ambition to compete with Western broadcasting giants. Al-Jazeera English channel will sit up the news agenda, anchors Shiulie Ghosh and Sami Zeidan said launching the long-awaited channel's broadcasting. Broadcasting from the ultra-sophisticated Doha studios, it began with a news bulletin featuring reports from Gaza, Sudan's Darfur region, Tehran, China and Brazil. Al-Jazeera English will initially have 12 hours of live programming, which it plans to boost to 24 hours on January 1. It broadcasts from studios in Doha, Kuala Lumpur, London and Washington DC, with offices in 20 other countries and employs some 800 people of 55 different nationalities. At least two Israeli journalists are among staff covering Israel. Among its prominent starts is BBC veteran Sir David Frost, the only person to have interviewed the last seven US presidents and the last six British prime ministers. Al-Jazeera English, only renamed on Tuesday from Al-Jazeera International, hopes to reach a potential audience of 80 million viewers by cable and satellite, mostly in Asia, Africa and Europe. But the channel said on Tuesday it would not be available on cable in the United States for at least a year as there is no free space for us on the US cable network. Arabic television Al-Jazeera, which began broadcasting in 1996 with staff largely drawn from the BBC's short-lived Arabic television, gained world fame through its exclusive reporting of the US military intervention in Afghanistan in late 2001. Known for its forthright style, frank journalism, quality programs, independence and willingness to discuss taboo issues, Al-Jazeera is the most-watched channel in the Arab world. Alternative View The new offshoot of the Doha-based news network comes to give a new perspective of news to English speakers around the world who are looking for an alternative to CNN and the BBC. Launching the English channel offers the chance to reach out to a new audience that is used to hearing the name of Al-Jazeera without being able to watch it or to understand its language, said network general director Wadah Khanfar. One of our goals is to reverse the flow of information to the south, he said, adding that the Middle East and developing nations have not had a voice of their own. The channel is being beamed to an Asian region which is booming and hungry for news, industry experts say. Kuala Lumpur is
Boycott Israel [IslamCity] For Those Who Are Conscious Of God
I remember hearing a hadith, when I was much younger, in which the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was reported to have said that there will come a time when holding onto one's faith will be as painful as holding onto a hot coal. I, in fact, quoted this hadith in a college admission essay, describing how difficult it was trying to remain faithful to my Islamic duties back then. Yet, that time pales in comparison to the difficult time in which I find the Muslim community today. Every day, I read of more innocent Muslim brothers and sisters being mercilessly slaughtered. The overwhelming majority of the world's refugees are Muslims, like me. There is so much injustice that infects the Muslim world today, both from inside and outside. Wars continue to ravage many Muslim lands, and we are powerless to stop it. And if my heart aches at the sight of this suffering, there are some who call this an ummah-itis, an affliction that must be eradicated. From the swamps of this injustice rises the choking weed of Islamofascism, or so it is called here in the West. Self-proclaimed holy warriors murder innocent men, women, and children in their quest to defend the Muslims from the onslaught of the West. With each year that passes, more digits are added to the pantheon of terror: 9/11, 3/11, 7/7. Terror plots are foiled, and diabolical plans of beheadings and mid-air destruction of civilian aircraft flood the airwaves. On top of this, Muslims kill each other with evermore fantastic and vicious methods; not even Friday prayers are sacred, where mosques are repeatedly targeted by murderous suicide attackers. As a result of all of this, the vitriol against Islam and Muslims grows more vicious. More people look at us as brutal terrorists; our Prophet is maligned as a violent pedophile; our wives, mothers, and sisters are spit upon because they wear hijab; our mosques are firebombed. It is enough to drive anyone mad. And it is easy to despair. Converts have left our fold because of the enormous negative pressure. Many more have contemplated such a move. Our youth become disillusioned and are tempted to leave the fold as well. All the lights have gone out, and all that is left is thick, black, stifling darkness. Yet, our people have been down this road in the past. The community of believers have been there and done that. Our Lord says: Do you think you could enter paradise without having suffered like those [believers] who passed away before you? Misfortune and hardship befell them, and so shaken were they that the apostle - and the believers with him - would exclaim, When will God's victory come? (2:214)In the selfsame verse, God proclaims: Oh, verily, God's victory is always near! Elsewhere in the sacred text our Lord says: Verily, God will ward off all evil from those who attain to faith; [and], verily, God does not love anyone who betrays His trust and is bereft of gratitude. (22:38)Let us remember our Master Noah (pbuh). For 950 years, he preached ceaselessly to his people, and they answered his call with rejection and humiliation: [And after a time, Noah] said: O my sustainer! Verily I have been calling unto my people night and day, but my call has only caused them to flee farther and farther away [from Thee]. (71:5-6)When there was no more hope in his people, the Lord asked Noah to build a boat - in the middle of barren desert. ...And every time the great ones of his people passed by him, they scoffed at him... (11:38)His building of the Ark seemed to confirm to them that Noah (pbuh) was a madman. It seemed hopeless for our Master. Yet, when the torrential waters came, our Master - and the tiny number of believers with him - were saved from utter destruction. The end was for those who were conscious of God. Let us remember our Master Abraham (pbuh). With a few fell swoops of an axe, he utterly destroyed the foundations of his people's idolatry. Yet, rather than accept the truth of the One God, they decreed: Burn him, and [thereby] give victory to your gods, if you are going to do [anything]! (21:68) And they built the fire. It was an enormous fire with which they planned to burn the Friend of God. It seemed hopeless for our Master. Yet, when he was thrown into the fire, our Lord said: O fire! Be thou cool, and [a source of] inner peace for Abraham! (21:69)And Abraham (pbuh) was saved. The end was for those who were conscious of God. What about our Master Moses (pbuh)? When all seemed to be lost, with the sea at his face and the forces of Pharaoh at his back, the Almighty split the sea and provided a safe passage for him and the believers with him. And our Master the Christ (pbuh)? Rejected by his own people and being sent to his death, the Lord purified and raised him up unto Him, giving him victory over his earthly enemies. Let us, also, never forget our beloved Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and the Battle of the Trench. Ten thousand Arabs, full

Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Hindu jihadis operating in JK
http://www.milligazette.com/Archives/2005/01-15July05-Print-Edition/011507200512.htm Hindu jihadis operating in JK By Masoom Muradabadi The Milli Gazette Online Jawans of Indian security forces in Kashmir have arrested Nina, daughter of a farmer called Sher Singh in Duggalpur, a village about 60 kms from Rajouri, near LoC. She was working as a helper to terrorists. During the course of interrogation she named many Hindu youths who were working as jihadis under fake Muslim names. This is not a figment of somebodys imagination but a bitter truth which has exposed another aspect of terrorism and militancy that is going on in Jammu Kashmir. Till now terrorism and militancy in JK was being associated with Muslims with communal organisation raising a great hue and cry. Even otherwise these elements do not miss any opportunity, as is their wont, to defame and target Muslims even on minor grounds but so far as JK is concerned, the general feeling is that the only Muslim majority state of the country is the stronghold of Muslim militants and separatists. There are no two opinions that in JK Pakistan-sponsored terrorist movement has very much disturbed the social, economic and communal life in the state but there are many other aspects of this bloody conflict which are continuously being ignored. That is why when this news became public, those owing allegiance to Sangh outfits maintained complete silence as if they are dumbfounded. Hindi daily Dainik Bhaskar in its 27 April issue published a news item which said that after trapping about three dozen Hindu youths of border areas in their net, the jihadi commanders have started a campaign of trapping Hindu girls of poor families also in their activities. In the hilly areas of Rajouri an 18-year-old girl, Nina, was caught from the house of a Gujjar family in Keri sector near the LoC. She had gone to that house for getting the dinner cooked for her 8 jihadi colleagues and also to spend the night there. The head of the Gujjar family acted cleverly. He got the meals cooked, took good care of the girl but secretly sent a child to the nearby military post to inform about the girl and the purpose of her visit. Security forces immediately reached the place and took the girl in their custody. On interrogation she told the security forces that Hizbul Mujahideen (HuM) operations commander in Rajouri and Poonch area is Shyam Lal, a Hindu youth, who is directing terrorist activities under the fake name of Shamsuddin. Security forces went into action to nab Hindu jihadis as informed by Nina. This is not the first incident of its kind. Many such startling cases were detected earlier. So much so that a few years back HuM disclosed that it had formed a battallion of Hindu supporters. Efforts were made to suppress such news because if such news were made public, another picture of the on-going terrorism in Kashmir will come to the knowledge of public which the media and government agencies want to conceal. According to available detailed information, HuM commanders have appointed Hindu jihadis in the hilly areas of Rajouri, Poonch, Doda, Udhampur etc. Eight such Hindu youths were recently arrested in Udhampur and Poonch areas, including HuM commander Manoj Kumar who was arrested last year in Udhampur. Similarly, a Hindu jihadi commander, Baldev Singh, had surrendered last month at the northern command headquarters of the Indian army at Udhampur. It is clear from these disclosures that not only Muslims but even Hindus are involved in the ongoing terrorist activities in JK who were either persuaded to join them or given monetary incentives or because of some other compelling circumstances. An important question that arises here: where are the Sangh activists who always doubt the patriotism of Muslims and have been citing the example of Kashmir separatists as a proof of their allegations? Why dont they loudly tell the world that in Kashmir Hindus also are involved in terrorist activities along with Muslims? I very well know that neither RSS leaders will react to this news nor Advani will utter a single word in this regard. They consider Hindus as most patriotic and all Muslims as stupid and traitors. The world in any case has come to know that terrorism is not associated with any religion but it is directly related to human needs and grievances. If jobless Hindus can become tools in the hands of anti-national elements in consideration of money and indulge in terrorist activities, why wont jobless and aggrieved Muslims fall in this trap? - Find out what India is talking about on - Yahoo!
