Islam and Pluralism *Indian Muslims: Hear the new voices <http://www.newageislam.org/NewAgeIslamArticleDetail.aspx?ArticleID=1387>*
Steeped in a volatile mix of anger and destitution, subject to being “suspect” for far too long, Indian Muslim communities are finally showing signs of fighting back against preconceived prejudices. When respected Ulema start to speak out about secular traditions and democratic structures, a strategic shift based on community feedback is apparent. Whether this wave of positivity will turn into a tsunami of inter-cultural bonding is yet to be assessed. - *Aijaz Ilmi *** More...<http://www.newageislam.org/NewAgeIslamArticleDetail.aspx?ArticleID=1387> Radical Islamism & Jihad *The making of Indian Mujahideen: A Bomb cult born over tea and biscuits <http://www.newageislam.org/NewAgeIslamArticleDetail.aspx?ArticleID=1386>* Controversial ideologue Abdul Aleem Islahi helps make sense of Indian Mujahideen story By January 2007, Islahi was alarmed enough by these activities to suggest (Mufti Abdul) Bashar leave his job. Bashar then started work at the * magazine* *Nishaan-e-Rah — a name from Islamist ideologue Sayyed Qutb’s seminal work, Milestones*,* which fired the minds of figures such as Osama bin-Laden and Abdullah Azzam.* Later that year, Bashar moved to New Delhi, resuming contact with city-based SIMI cadre — who, the Gujarat Police say, he motivated to join the Indian Mujahideen. Islahi appears to have little sympathy for the jihadists who disregarded his advice. “These young men,” he says, “had little of the training needed to understand Islam. They did not know Arabic, and had never studied theology. And they did not understand that the purpose of Islam is not to subjugate the infidel, but, rather, to change his outlook and world view.” -- *Praveen Swami* More<http://www.newageislam.org/NewAgeIslamArticleDetail.aspx?ArticleID=1386>syed md asadullah --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Dear Friends Check your inbox daily + delete your junk emails & keep your inbox empty!
