Leaflet creates stir in Bagmara STAFF CORRESPONDENT, RAJSHAHI Independent (Bangladesh) January 31, 2005 http://independent-bangladesh.com/news/jan/31/31012005mt.htm#A4
Jan 30: A leaflet circulated at various places of Bagmara thana of the district by an unidentified Islamic organisation has created sensation among the local people. The leaflet entitled, "Regarding Qurbani and Fi-Sabilillah" (Sacrifice and in the name of Allah) said �the best work to Allah is to perform Qurbani (sacrifice) which is the best way to purify our soul. It also quoted a Hadith saying, the blood of Qurbani reaches Allah before it falls on the ground. The leaflet said, it was pathetic but true that the same religious practice (the Qurbani) cannot be performed independently by the Muslims in various places of the world. The Kafirs (infidels) are refraining the Muslims from performing the Qurbani on the plea of polluting environment and society. The leaflet goes: �But once the Muslims ruled half of the world from the Atlantic to China because they had weapons in their hands. As a result, they were the sole-ruler of political, sociological, cultural, religious and economic scenario of the world. They were the nation of lions. No super power had the guts to raise its head in front of them. But the nation has been crippled by the conspiracy of the kafirs in course of time. Quoting another verse from the holy Quran, the leaflet said, "the Muslims all over the world are being targetted and killed as they (Muslims) remained reluctant to manufacture weapons. The kafirs were engaged in a deep conspiracy to wipe out the Muslim nation through military aggression and Crusade. As a result, to counter all conspiracy of the kafirs and to recover the lost glory of the Muslims, a Zihadi Organisation has been formed in Bangladesh like all other Muslim countries of the world. These organisations are operating with utmost devotion, aim, courage, ability, intelligence, patience despite relentless trouble and torture. This way is the way of Fi Sabilillah. Quoting another verse from the Holy Quran, the leaflet said, at present the building of mosque,madrasha etc. is being termed as Fi-Sabilliah whereas the very word Fi-Sabilillah means the armed struggle. As a result, those who are fighting for establishing rule of Allah and rescue the Muslims from the hands of the Kafirs are being arrested in various places of the country. Under this circumstances it is a duty of all devoted Muslims to spend their assets, money and life for the Zihad of Fi-Sabilillah otherwise the nation would be destroyed. The leaflet quoted one more verse at the end calling upon the devoted Muslims to get all out preparation to rescue the Muslims from the repression of the �Jalims� and to recover their lost glory and thus to cooperate the Islamic organisation in all means. The name or identity of the organisation has not been mentioned in the leaflet. Bagmara thana police expressed their ignorance about the circulation of the leaflets. The local people of Tahirpur opined, such leaflet might be circulated by the Jagrata Muslim Janata(JMJ) or some other secret organisation. Others said, such a leaflet has been distributed to the people to tarnish the image of the country and to prove the country as a country infested with the Muslim extremist groups. http://independent-bangladesh.com/news/jan/31/31012005mt.htm#A4 __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
