Tunisian Islamist Linked to Muslim Brotherhood Calls For Adoption of
"Islamic Constitution"

Posted By GlobalMB On March 11, 2008 @ 9:18 pm In Daily | No Comments <> 

Speaking at an event organized by an Indian Islamist party Rachid Ghannoushi
(Aka Rachid Ghannouchi), often associated with the Muslim Brotherhood, has
called on the Muslim world to adopt the "Charter of Madinah", also known as
the Constitution of Medina. According to the report
<http://www.indianmuslims.info/news/2008/feb/28/pluralism_and_coalition_majo
rity_only_option_muslim_minorities_sheikh_ghannoushi.ht>  [1] of an Indian
Muslim source:

Time has come for the Muslim world, prepared by Prophet Muhammad 1400 years
ago, in its entirety, said Tunisian Islamic scholar Sheikh Rashid Ghannoushi
in New Delhi yesterday. Addressing a program organized by Jamaat-e-Islami
Hind on 27th February, Sheikh Ghannoushi, who is the leader of the Islamic
Movement of Tunisia, said the charter was relevant today to face the
challenges confronting Muslims across the globe. He said after migrating to
Madinah, the Prophet prepared the charter in which equal rights and duties
were assigned to all citizens of the Islamic State of Madinah - polytheists,
Jews, Christians and Muslims. Jews, however, were expelled later from the
state because they had violated the charter. He said a movement could
succeed only when it accepted multiplicity of religions, cultures and
civilizations. For Muslim minorities, who constitute one third of the entire
Muslim Ummah, there are only three ways open: first that they adopt the
ideology of division of state into Muslim and non-Muslim population; second,
surrender themselves before the majority, and third, participate with
non-Muslims. Of these three options, the last one will help Muslims to enjoy
their rights, said Sheikh Ghannoushi. The other two options may push them to
confrontation with the world or undignified life, said he who is living in
London in exile.

Ghannouchi is the leader in-exile of the Tunisian Islamist movement known as
Nahada (aka Ennahda, Al Nahda) and can best be described as an independent
Islamist power center who is tied to the global Muslim Brotherhood by his
membership <http://www.iqrafiji.org/ecfr.pdf>  [2] in the European Council
for Fatwa and Research led by Brotherhood leader Youssef Qaradawi. He is
also one of the founding members of the World Assembly of Muslim Youth
(WAMY), a Saudi organization closely linked to the Muslim Brotherhood and
dedicated to the propagation of "Wahabist" Islam throughout the world.
Ghannouchi is know for his thinking
<http://www.informaworld.com/smpp/content~content=a777418226~db=all>  [3] on
the issue of Islam and citizenship rights. The Medina charter is often cited
by Brotherhod figures as an example of the democratic nature of Islam. It is
not clear whether or not the reference to Jews in the statement was said in
an anti-Semitic context.
