Bismillah [IslamCity] MUSLIM DEMOGRAPHY.
Dear Brothers & Sisters in Islam: Assalamo'alai'kum w RahmatUllah: I was very pleased to see the email "Muslims Demography" yesterday. Then I was/am upset because my mind boggles " Will the Muslim Majority in the World change the Scenario of the World, tilting it to look more Islamic?" Well I don't find any pleasure in the majority of Muslims - WHY? 1. More than 200 million Arab Muslims can not over power 12 to 15 million Jew in Israel nor can they tame Israel to come to terms with Muslims. 2. Are the Muslims of today not infighting with each other? what difference will be if smaller groups grow like mushrooms? 3. A Muslim is Honest, speaker of Truth, Not thief in its real senses, Trust worthy, Fulfill er of Promises, NOT a drinker nor Ha ram (forbidden) eater, 4 A true Muslim is never a gambler ( forward stock Player, Bet knitters, etc) 5 A Muesli never accepts Interest neither gives money on Interest nor obtains on Interest. 6. A Muslim always " TRUSTS IN ALLAH - THE LORD OF UNIVERSE/S" 5. A Muslim KEEPS UP MODESTY - COMMANDED BY AL-QUMRAN"- AND - CANNOT AFFORD TO ENJOY NUDITY - WHICH BRINGS WAR TH OF ALLAH s.w.t 6 A Muslim is not "AFRAID/ASHAMED OF KEEPING BEARD" Please tell me if the demographics can change the realities.
Bismillah [IslamCity] Obama In Cairo: A New Face For Imperialism
Obama In Cairo: A New Face For Imperialism By Patrick Martin 05 June, 2009 WSWS.org The speech delivered by US President Barack Obama in Cairo yesterday was riddled with contradictions. He declared his opposition to the “killing of innocent men, women, and children,” but defended the ongoing US wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the US proxy war in Pakistan, while remaining silent on the most recent Israeli slaughter of Palestinians in Gaza. These wars have killed at least one million Iraqis and tens of thousands in Afghanistan, Pakistan and the Palestinian territories. Obama declared his support for democracy, human rights and women’s rights, after two days of meetings with King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia and Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, two of the most notorious tyrants in the Middle East. He said nothing in his speech about the complete absence of democratic rights in Saudi Arabia, or about the ongoing repression under Mubarak’s military dictatorship. In the days before the US president’s arrival at Al-Azhar University, the campus was raided by Egyptian secret police who detained more than 200 foreign students. Before leaving on his Mideast trip, Obama praised Mubarak as a “steadfast ally.” While posturing as the advocate of universal peace and understanding, Obama diplomatically omitted any reference to his order to escalate the war in Afghanistan with the dispatch of an additional 17,000 US troops. And he tacitly embraced the policy of his predecessor in Iraq, declaring, “I believe the Iraqi people are ultimately better off without the tyranny of Saddam Hussein.” He even seemed to hedge on the withdrawal deadline of December 2011 negotiated by the Bush administration, which he described as a pledge “to remove all our troops from Iraq by 2012.” Obama rejected the charge that America is “a self-interested empire”—a perfectly apt characterization—and denied that the United States was seeking bases, territory or access to natural resources in the Muslim world. He claimed that the war in Afghanistan was a “war of necessity” provoked by the 9/11 terrorist attacks. This is the same argument made by the Bush-Cheney administration at the time, which deliberately conceals the real material interests at stake. The war in Afghanistan is part of the drive by US imperialism to dominate the world’s two most important sources of oil and gas, the Persian Gulf and the Caspian Basin. There was of course a distinct shift in the rhetorical tone from the bullying “you’re either with or against us” of George W. Bush to the reassuring “we’re all in this together” of Obama. But as several commentators noted (the New Republic compared the speech line-for-line to that given by Bush to the United Nations on September 16, 2006), if you turned off the picture and the sound and simply read the prepared text, the words are very similar to speeches delivered by Bush, Condoleezza Rice and other officials of the previous administration. The vague and flowery rhetoric, the verbal tributes to Islamic culture and the equal rights of nations, constitute an adjustment of the language being used to cloak the policy of US imperialism, not a change in substance. Obama made not a single concrete proposal to redress the grievances of the oppressed peoples of the Middle East. That is because the fundamental source of this oppression is the profit system and the domination of the world by imperialism, of which American imperialism is the most ruthless. Obama made one passing reference to colonialism, and to the US role in the overthrow of the democratically elected Mossadegh government in Iran in 1953. But in his litany of “sources of tension” in the region, he offered the same checklist as his predecessor, with the first place given to “violent extremism”, Obama’s rhetorical substitute for Bush’s “terrorism.” The reaction to the Obama speech in the American media was across-the-board enthusiasm. Liberal David Corn of Mother Jones magazine said Obama’s great advantages were “his personal history, his non-Bushness, his recognition of US errors, his willingness to at least talk as if he wants to be an honest broker in the Mideast.” Michael Crowley wrote in the pro-war liberal magazine New Republic, “to see him unfold his biography, to cut such an unfamiliar profile to the world, is to appreciate how much America will benefit from presenting this new face to the world.” Perhaps most revealing was the comment by Max Boot, a neoconservative arch-defender of the war in Iraq, who wrote: “I thought he did a more effective job of making America’s case to the Muslim world. No question: He is a more effective salesman than his predecessor was.” In his speech in Cairo, Obama was playing the role for which he was drafted and promoted by a decisive section of the US financial elite and the military and foreign policy apparatus. This role is to provide a new face for US imperialism as part of
Bismillah [IslamCity] ruling: Reciting a verse of sajda while praying behind an imam
Question # 120670: What should the person praying behind an imam do if he recites a verse in which there is a sajdah (prostration)? Question: What should I do if I recite a soorah in which there is a sajdah when I am praying behind an imam?. Answer: Praise be to Allaah. You should not prostrate, because following the imam is obligatory and the prostration of recitation is Sunnah. If a person is praying behind an imam, it is not permissible for him to prostrate, and if he prostrates deliberately although he knows that that is not permissible, then his prayer becomes invalid.

Re: Bismillah [IslamCity] Israel wants Palestinians to make Jordan a homeland
ASA, That's pretty ironic considering that Jordan was Palestine before the creation of Isreal and it's siding with the Brits in the war for independence; better idea how about Jordan partnering with Palestine and remerging the lands. Just another one of my dumb ideas! ASA, Kimm From: "sha...@yahoo.com" To: eGroup For Muslims Around The World Sent: Wednesday, June 3, 2009 12:44:26 PM Subject: Bismillah [IslamCity] Israel wants Palestinians to make Jordan a homeland Jordanian MPs: Break ties with Israel over Knesset proposal 29/05/2009 At least 15 Jordanian lawmakers on Friday urged the government to sever diplomatic ties with Israel in protest against debate in the Israeli parliament over regarding Jordan as an "alternative homeland" for the Palestinians. "The voting on the proposal by the Israeli Knesset proves that the Zionist mentality of the ruling politicians in Israel does not believe in peace and has no respect for the peace treaties and UN resolution," the pro-government National Democratic Bloc at the lower house of parliament said in a statement. The group, which includes 15 deputies, considered last week's discussion in Israel's Knesset "a violation" of the peace treaty, which Jordan concluded with Israel in 1994. The group said Jordan's response should be the "dismissal of the Israeli ambassador and withdrawal of the Jordanian envoy" from Israel. The proposal depicting "two states for two peoples on the two banks of the River Jordan" was put on the Knesset's agenda by MK Aryeh Eldad from the far-right National Union-National Religious Party. The Knesset voted to refer the suggestion to one of its committees for further review. Jordanian Foreign Minister Nasser Judeh summoned Israeli's ambassador in Amman earlier this week and handed him a strongly-worded protest that "categorically rejected" the Knesset move. Judeh reiterated Jordan's stance envisaging the creation of an independent Palestinian state on all territories that Israel captured in the 1967 Six-Day War, including East Jerusalem, under the two-state track supported by the world's leading powers, including the United States and the European Union. http://www.haaretz. com/hasen/ spages/1088969. html
Bismillah [IslamCity] Barak Hussein Obama's Speech: Frank and constructive
Barak Hussein Obama's Speech: Frank and Constructive The speech of US President Barak Obama in Cairo was the first of its kind in history.No western leader before him addressed the entire Muslim world on issues of great relevance to both the West and the Muslim world.In his speech he discussed the contribution of Islam to civilization, the false stereotypes used about Islam and Muslims, the political issues of Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine, the need for new beginning in relatioms between Muslim world and the West .He said "I've come here to Cairo to seek a new beginning between the United States and Muslims around the world, one based on mutual interest and mutual respect, and one based upon the truth that America and Islam are not exclusive and need not be in competition. Instead, they overlap, and share common principles -- principles of justice and progress; tolerance and the dignity of all human beings.- . But I am convinced that in order to move forward, we must say openly to each other the things we hold in our hearts and that too often are said only behind closed doors. There must be a sustained effort to listen to each other; to learn from each other; to respect one another; and to seek common ground. As the Holy Koran tells us, "Be conscious of God and speak always the truth." (Applause.) That is what I will try to do today -- to speak the truth as best I can, humbled by the task before us, and firm in my belief that the interests we share as human beings are far more powerful than the forces that drive us apart. I know there are many -- Muslim and non-Muslim -- who question whether we can forge this new beginning. Some are eager to stoke the flames of division, and to stand in the way of progress. Some suggest that it isn't worth the effort -- that we are fated to disagree, and civilizations are doomed to clash. Many more are simply skeptical that real change can occur. There's so much fear, so much mistrust that has built up over the years. But if we choose to be bound by the past, we will never move forward. And I want to particularly say this to young people of every faith, in every country -- you, more than anyone, have the ability to reimagine the world, to remake this world." We welcome Barak Obama's initiative from the great Muslim city of Cairo.The tone of sincerity was apparent and most of us were touched by his speech. There are doubters everywhere who will say that this is only diplomacy and there will not be any change.We do not agree with them.The world can have peace and progress through dialogue, listening to each othe as President Obama has said.This is not to suggest that we agree with everything.It is not necessary.It never happens that we always agree on all points.We particularly feel that the invasion of Afganistan was not necessary..We also agree with his view that Middle East should be kept nuclear weapon free.Though he urged Iran not to go for nuclear weapons and did not mention Israel, it was clear from his words "nuclear free middle east " that he does not want Israel to have nuclear weapons. In any event we sincerely appreciate his speech and urge him to take steps as he has said. -
Bismillah [IslamCity] Halal : Buying Muslim
Halal: Buying Muslim By CARLA POWER Thursday, May. 14, 2009 FRESH LOOK: Malaysia-based El Hajj markets skincare products such as moisturizer and facial cleanser to pilgrims headed to Mecca Palani Mohan / Reportage by Getty Images for TIME Khalfan Mohammed has long been buffeted by culture shock while staying in five-star hotels. As a devout Muslim he has learned to ask staff to remove the minibar's alcohol. He loathes lobbies with loud discos and drunken guests. When traveling with his parents, it is the bikinis that rankle most. "It was quite shocking for my mother to sit in a restaurant with undressed people," the Abu Dhabi-based businessman says. "My mom and dad are not used to seeing people in public wearing their underwear." To avoid such embarrassment, the Mohammeds took to renting furnished apartments. Related Photos The Force Behind the Gulf Boom Photos Islam's Soft Revolution Stories Saudi Arabia's Lessons Learned Dubai's Sand Castles No longer. On a trip to Dubai last year, Mohammed stayed in the Villa Rotana, one of a growing number of hotels catering to Muslim travelers. In the lobby — all white leather, brick and glass, with a small waterfall — quiet reigns. Men in dishdashas and veiled women glide by Westerners who are sometimes discreetly reminded to respect local customs. Minibars are stocked not with alcohol, but with Red Bull, Pepsi and the malt drink Barbican. (See pictures of migrant workers in the Gulf.) Time was, buying Muslim meant avoiding pork and alcohol and getting your meat from a halal butcher, who slaughtered in accordance with Islamic principles. But the halal food market has exploded in the past decade and is now worth an estimated $632 billion annually, according to the Halal Journal, a Kuala Lumpur-based magazine. That's about 16% of the entire global food industry. Throw in the fast-growing Islam-friendly finance sector and the myriad other products and services — cosmetics, real estate, hotels, fashion, insurance — that comply with Islamic law and the teachings of the Koran, and the sector is worth well over $1 trillion a year. One reason for the rise of the halal economy is that the world's 1.6 billion Muslims are younger and, in some places at least, richer than ever. Seeking to tap that huge market, non-Muslim multinationals like Tesco, McDonald's and Nestlé have expanded their Muslim-friendly offerings and now control an estimated 90% of the global halal market. At the same time, governments in Asia and the Middle East are pouring millions into efforts to become regional "halal hubs," providing tailor-made manufacturing centers and "halal logistics" — systems to maintain product purity during shipping and storage. The increased competition is changing manufacturing and supply chains in some unusual places. Most of Saudi Arabia's chicken is raised in Brazil, which means Brazilian suppliers have built elaborate halal slaughtering facilities. Abattoirs in New Zealand, the world's biggest exporter of halal lamb, have hosted delegations from Iran and Malaysia. And the Netherlands, keen to maximize Rotterdam's role as Europe's biggest port, has built halal warehouses so that imported halal goods aren't stored next to pork or alcohol. Such arrangements cost, of course, but since the industry's anchor is food, business is booming, even in the economic crisis. "What downturn?" asks Nordin Abdullah, executive director of the Halal Journal. "You don't need your Gucci handbag, but you do need your hamburger." Not just hamburgers. Drug companies such as the U.K.'s Principle Healthcare and Canada's Duchesnay now sell halal vitamins free of the gelatins and other animal derivatives that some Islamic scholars say make mainstream products haram, or unlawful. The Malaysia-based company Granulab produces synthetic bone graft material to avoid using animal bone, while Malaysian and Cuban scientists are collaborating on a halal meningitis vaccine. In the Gulf, the Burooj real estate company is carving out a niche, not just because it deals exclusively with Islamic banks, but because it designs spas and swimming pools that segregate the sexes. For Muslim women concerned about skin-care products containing alcohol or lipsticks that use animal fats, a few cosmetics firms are creating halal makeup lines. The burgeoning Islamic finance industry is using the global economic crisis to win new non-Muslim customers. Investors are attracted by Islamic banking's more conservative approach: Islamic law forbids banks from charging interest (though customers pay fees) and many scholars discourage investment in excessively leveraged companies. Though it currently accounts for just 1% of the global market, the Islamic finance industry's value is growing at around 15% a year, and could reach $4 trillion in five years, up from $500 billion today, according to a 2008 report from Moody's Investors Service.

Bismillah [IslamCity] Decoding God's Changing Moods
Decoding God's Changing Moods By ROBERT WRIGHT Monday, Jun. 15, 2009 Symbols of the three Monotheistic religions. S袡stien D賡rmaux / Godong / Corbis ENLARGE + Jun. 15, 2009 Decoding God's Changing Moods By ROBERT WRIGHT The ancient Israelites got straightforward guidance from Scripture on how to handle people who didn't worship Israel's god, Yahweh. "You shall annihilate them — the Hittites and the Amorites, the Canaanites and the Perizzites, the Hivites and the Jebusites — just as the Lord your God has commanded." The point of this exercise, explained the Book of Deuteronomy, was to make sure the "abhorrent" religions of nearby peoples didn't rub off on Israelites. Yet sometimes the Israelites were happy to live in peace with neighbors who worshipped alien gods. In the Book of Judges, an Israelite military leader proposes a live-and-let-live arrangement with the Ammonites: "Should you not possess what your god Chemosh gives you to possess? And should we not be the ones to possess everything that our god Yahweh has conquered for our benefit?" (See pictures of spiritual healing around the world.) The Bible isn't the only Scripture with such vacillations between belligerence and tolerance. Muslims, who like Christians and Jews worship the God who revealed himself to Abraham, are counseled in one part of the Koran to "kill the polytheists wherever you find them." But another part prescribes a different stance toward unbelievers, "To you be your religion; to me my religion." You'd think the Abrahamic God would make up his mind — Can he live with other gods or not? What's with the random mood fluctuations? But the fluctuations aren't really random. If you juxtapose the Abrahamic Scriptures with what scholars have learned about the circumstances surrounding their creation, a pattern appears. Certain kinds of situations inspired tolerance, and other kinds inspired the opposite. You might even say this pattern is a kind of code, a code that is hidden in the Scriptures and that, once revealed, unlocks the secret of God's changing moods. And maybe this code could unlock more than that. Maybe knowing what circumstances made the authors of Scripture open-minded can help make modern-day believers open-minded. Maybe the hidden code in the Bible and the Koran, the code that links Scriptural content to context, could even help mend the most dangerous of intra-Abrahamic fault lines, the one between Muslims and Jews. The first step in seeing this code is to look to the world that gave us the Hebrew Bible (what Christians call the Old Testament) and the Koran — the world that embedded the code in them. There we'll see how consequential God's mood changes could be — how, indeed, a burst of vengeful intolerance helped give us monotheism itself; we'll see that the birth of monotheism left us with what you might call a bad God. But we'll also see that this God then had bursts of moral growth — within both Judaism and Islam — and that the proven ingredients of that growth are around today, just when another such burst is needed. In the beginning — or near the beginning — was King Solomon. Israel's third King, he reigned in the 10th century B.C.E. (before the common era). In addition to being famously wise, he was flagrantly polytheistic. The Bible handles this awkward fact by blaming it on his many wives of foreign extraction, who "turned away his heart after other gods." The Bible has the logic backward. In ancient times, when a man of royal blood married a foreign woman of royal blood, it wasn't on a romantic whim. It was part of foreign policy, a way to cement relations with another nation. And that cement was strengthened by paying respect to the nation's gods. Solomon's many wives didn't lead to his many gods; his politics led to both the wives and the gods. Solomon believed Israel could benefit — economically and otherwise — by staying on good terms with nearby nations. As game theorists say, he saw relations with other nations as non-zero-sum; the fortunes of Israel and other nations were positively correlated, so outcomes could be win-win or lose-lose. His warmth toward those religions was a way of making the win-win outcome more likely. Again and again in the Bible, this perception of non-zero-sumness underlies religious tolerance. This doesn't mean religious tolerance is always consciously calculated. The human mind does lots of subterranean work to pave the way for social success. But whether the calculation is conscious or not, people are more open to the religious beliefs of other people if they sense a non-zero-sum dynamic. See people finding God on YouTube. See pictures of John 3:16 in pop culture. The flip side is that perceptions of a zero-sum dynamic — of a game in which one side will win and one side lose — can foster intolerance of other religions and their gods. Indeed, a close look at the Bible shows how this worldview h
Bismillah [IslamCity] Evil Eye - help!
Asalaam, If someone can help my mom please write back; here is a copy of her correspondence to me. This is a lady who is very intelligent, well educated, and loving who used to always do for others. She has now been sick, lethargic, sometimes apathetic, she hides in her home and has met failure in everything that she tries to do which makes her more depressed. Doctors have no answers and she may well lose the last of what she has - her home and her children if something doesn't change. JK Nina and Alyce I used to study Quran sometimes reciting softly while at work during down time which due to the job was often; most people did homework and such during down time. A lady who hated me for no reason that I can comprehend used to always stare hatefully and maliciously at me especially when I was studying. This lady through other maneuvers caused the environment around me to be so toxic that I had to finally leave that job. My home and personal life simply fell apart during this time as well. As a revert I had never given much thought to the evil eye but since my life has steadily fallen into disrepair since that lady used to stare at me and I wholehearted seek Allah, swt and do my best to meet my obligations it has been suggested to me that I may be afflicted with the evil eye. How can one know if they are afflicted with the evil eye or if Allah,swt is simply testing them or can it be both and what can be done? I have been tested in many ways before but never for such a long time, I can't even describe the physical, pshcological, financial, trauma that I have been suffering these past three years.

Bismillah [IslamCity] ISRAEL WILL FALL IN 2O YEARS...AAMEEN
Date: Fri, 5 Jun 2009 10:32:45 -0700 Subject: CIA report: Israel will fall in 20 years A study conducted by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has cast doubt over Israel's survival beyond the next 20 years. The CIA report predicts "an inexorable movement away from a two-state to a one-state solution, as the most viable model based on democratic principles of full equality that sheds the looming specter of colonial Apartheid while allowing for the return of the 1947/1948 and 1967 refugees. The latter being the precondition for sustainable peace in the region." The study, which has been made available only to a certain number of individuals, further forecasts the return of all Palestinian refugees to the occupied territories, and the exodus of two million Israeli - who would move to the US in the next fifteen years. "There is over 500,000 Israelis with American passports and more than 300,000 living in the area of just California," International lawyer Franklin Lamb said in an interview with Press TV on Friday, adding that those who do not have American or western passport, have already applied for them. "So I think the handwriting at least among the public in Israel is on the wall...[which] suggests history will reject the colonial enterprise sooner or later," Lamb stressed. He said CIA, in its report, alludes to the unexpectedly quick fall of the apartheid government in South Africa and recalls the disintegration of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s, suggesting the end to the dream of an 'Israeli land' would happen 'way sooner' than later. The study further predicts the return of over one and a half million Israelis to Russia and other parts of Europe, and denotes a decline in Israeli births whereas a rise in the Palestinian population. Lamb said given the Israeli conduct toward the Palestinians and the Gaza strip in particular, the American public -- which has been voicing its protest against Tel Aviv's measures in the last 25 years -- may 'not take it anymore'. Some members of the US Senate Intelligence Committee have been informed of the report. MRS/MMN FULL STORY: http://www.presstv.com/detail.aspx?id=88491§ionid=351020202
Bismillah [IslamCity] The Heart of Obama at Cairo Speech - Dr.M.K.Sherwani
June,6,2009 The Heart of Obama at Cairo Speech I am born of your sperm, I know the depth of your mind; I have your blood in my veins, What lies inside you, I can find. I was your breed, I know your instinct, On earth, you are the most gullible race; The praise of your faith gives you joy, Quotes from Qur’an glorify your face. Bush had a suspicious and dubious trait, He was a zealous fool ; aroused your hate; His color was a mirror to his darkest heart, I have a perfect match, I thank my fate. Many a time , I pondered, why he failed, I will surpass him, and attain our goal; I will vanquish you , but will always tell, In this world , you have a historic role. I am getting you slain through my slaves, That I have bought from amongst you; They are faithfully doing what I wish, You all are applauding me, barring a few. Our Israel will continue on the usurped soil, The Palestinians must not dream to be free; Afghanistan and Iraq now belong to us , Our drones will keep their killing spree. With the hysteria of terror and global threat, In your lands, our forces will always remain; I will pick up more spots to foment unrest, Till you dispel your dignity from your brain. ** Dr. Mustafa Kamal Sherwani,LL.D.

Bismillah [IslamCity] from Cairo to Buchenwald....and the chiken-soups of Gaza
Buchenwald. in 2009 The day after the day when he was in Cairo President Barack Obama went directly to visit the ex-concentration camp of Buchenwald in Germany Arriving to the camp he laid a white flower and said : This place is the ultimate rebuke for those who would still deny the Holocaustunquote If I may answer on behalf of the revisionists which never was my task , nor my duty I would reply to Obama two things : 1- revisionist do not deny the existence of the concentration-camps but they doubt and deny what has happened in them !! 2- Buchenwald is 6200 kilometres away from Cairo and has been out of business for the last 64 years , so why not having visited , instead , the Gaza Strip which only 263 kilometres from Cairo and is still in business OK Gaza is not a "Death-Camp" , as such... but it is surely a huge "Concentration-Camp" but if you would add the boycott and the starvation and the siege and the bombardments ... Gaza would then qualify as a "Death-camp". Why to dig in past , when the present is equaly so rotten !!! Why to go look inside a 64 years old closed kitchen (Buchenwald) and to try to convince us , whether or not , it has had chicken-soup when a modern, contemporary and still active kitchen (Gaza) has ,still on fire , hot-boiling-chicken-soup ?? Are there also US-double-standards... in Chicken-soups ?? and in Holocausts ??? Sherlock Hommos a-non-revisionist-restaurant-critic 6th of June 2009
