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=88491sectionid=351020202
Bismillah [IslamCity] A POWERFUL STORY
A powerful story: Salah and its Importance of Performing it on Time ** * He remembered his grandmother's warning about praying on time: 'My son, you shouldn't leave prayer to this late time'. His grandmother's age was 70 but, whenever she heard the Adhan, she got up like an arrow and performed Salah. He, however could never win over his ego to get up and pray. Whatever he did, his Salah was always the last to be offered and he prayed it quickly to get it in on time. Thinking of this, he got up and realized that there were only 15 minutes left before Salat-ul Isha. He quickly made Wudhu and performed Salat-ul Maghrib. While making Tasbih, he again remembered his grandmother and was embarrassed by how he had prayed. His grandmother prayed with such tranquillity and peace. He began making Dua and went down to make Sajdah and stayed like that for a while. He had been at work all day and was tired, so tired. He awoke abruptly to the sound of noise and shouting. He was sweating profusely. He looked around. It was very crowded. Every direction he looked in was filled with people. Some stood frozen looking around, some were running left and right and some were on their knees with their heads in their hands just waiting. Pure fear and apprehension filled him as he realized where he was. His heart was about to burst. It was the Day of Judgment.. When he was alive, he had heard many things about the questioning on the Day of Judgment, but that seemed so long ago. Could this be something his mind made up? No, the wait and the fear were so great that he could not have imagined this. The interrogation was still going on. He began moving frantically from people to people to ask if his name had been called. No one could answer him. All of a sudden his name was called and the crowd split into two and made a passageway for him. Two angels grabbed his arms and led him forward. He walked with unknowing eyes through the crowd. The angels brought him to the center and left him there. His head was bent down and his whole life was passing in front of his eyes like a movie. He opened his eyes but saw only another world. The people were all helping others. He saw his father running from one lecture to the other, spending his wealth in the way of Islam. His mother invited guests to their house and one table was being set while the other was being cleared. He pleaded his case, 'I too was always on this path. I helped others. I spread the word of Allah. I performed my Salah. I fasted in the month of Ramadhan. Whatever Allah ordered us to do, I did.. Whatever he ordered us not to do, I did not.' He began to cry and think about how much he loved Allah. He knew that whatever he had done in life would be less than what Allah deserved and his only protector was Allah He was sweating like never before and was shaking all over. His eyes were fixed on the scale, waiting for the final decision. At last, the decision was made. The two angels with sheets of paper in their hands, turned to the crowd. His legs felt like they were going to collapse. He closed his eyes as they began to read the names of those people who were to enter Jahannam. His name was read first. He fell on his knees and yelled that this couldn't be, 'How could I go to Jahannam? I served others all my life, I spread the word of Allah to others'. His eyes had become blurry and he was shaking with sweat. The two angels took him by the arms. As his feet dragged, they went through the crowd and advanced toward the blazing flames of Jahannam. He was yelling and wondered if there was any person who was going to help him. He was yelling of all the good deeds he had done, how he had helped his father, his fasts, prayers, the Noble Qur'an that he read, he was asking if none of them would help him. The Jahannam angels continued to drag him. They had gotten closer to the Hellfire. He looked back and these were his last pleas. Had not Rasulullah [SAW] said, 'How clean would a person be who bathes in a river five times a day, so too does the Salah performed five times cleanse someone of their sins'? He began yelling, 'My prayers? My prayers? My prayers.?' The two angels did not stop, and they came to the edge of the abyss of Jahannam. The flames of the fire were burning his face. He looked back one last time, but his eyes were dry of hope and he had nothing left in him. One of the angels pushed him in. He found himself in the air and falling towards the flames. He had just fallen five or six feet when a hand grabbed him by the arm and pulled him back. He lifted his head and saw an old man with a long white beard. He wiped some dust off himself and asked him, 'Who are you?' The old man replied, 'I am your prayers'. 'Why are you so late! I was almost in the Fire! You rescued me at the last minute before I fell in'. The old man smiled and shook his head, 'You always performed me at the last

Bismillah [IslamCity] PIG FAT
*Why Pig Fat is not mentioned but code(s) are printed?? PIG FAT By Dr. M. Amjad Khan In nearly all the western countries including Europe, the PRIMARY choice for meat is PIG. There are a lot of farms in these countries to A breed this animal. In France alone, Pig Farms account for more than 42,000. PIGS have the highest quantity of FAT in their body than any other animal. But Europeans and Americans try to avoid fats. Thus, where does the FAT from these PIGS go? All pigs are cut inslaughter houses under the control of the department of food and it was the headache of the department of food to! dispose of the fat removed from these pigs. Formally, it was burnt (about 60 years ago). Then they thought of utilizing it. First, they experimented it in the making of SOAPS and it worked. Then, a full network was formed and this FAT was chemically Processed, Packed and Marketed, while the other manufacturing companies bought it. In the meantime, all European States made it a rule that every Food, Medical and Personal Hygiene product should have the ingredients listed on its cover. * *so, this ingredient was listed as PIG FAT. Those who are living in Europe for the past 40 years know about this. But, these products came under a ban by the ISLAMIC COUNTRIES at that time, which resulted in a trade deficit. Going back in time, if you are somehow related to South East Asia, you might know about the provoking factors of the 1857 CIVIL WAR. At that time, Rifle Bullets were made in Europe and transported to the sub-continent through the Sea. It took months to reach there and the gun powder in it was ruined due to the exposure to sea. Then, they got the idea of coating the Bullets with fat, which was PIG FAT. The fat layer had to be scratched by teeth before using them. When the word spread, the soldiers, mostly Muslim and some Vegetarians, refused to fight.Which eventually lead to the Civil War. The Europeans recognized these facts, and instead of writing PIG FAT, they started writing ANIMAL FAT.All those living in Europe since 1970's know this fact. When the companies were asked by authorities from the MUSLIM COUNTRIES, what animal fat is it, they were told it was COW and SHEEP Fat. Here again a question raised, if it was COW or SHEEP Fat, still it is HARAAM to MUSLIMS, as these animal were not SLAUGHTERED as per the ISLAMIC LAW. Thus, they were again banned. Now, these multinational companies were again facing a severe drought of money as 75% of their income comes from selling their goods to Muslim Countries, and these earn BILLIONS OF DOLLARS of Profit from their exports to the MUSLIM WORLD. Finally they decided to start a coding language, so that only their Departments of Food Administration should know what they are using, and the common man is left lurking in the dark.Thus, they started E-CODES. These E- INGREDIENTS are present in a majority of products of multinational firms including, but not limited to - TOOTH PASTE, SHAVING CREAM CHEWING GUM, CHOCOLATE, SWEETS, BISCUITS, CORN FLAKES, TOFFEES, CANNED FOODS, FRUIT TINS, Some medication Multi-vitamins Since these goods are being used in all MUSLIM Countries indiscrimately, our society is facing problems like shamelessness, rudeness and sexual promiscuity. So, I request all MUSLIMS or non pork eaters to check the ingredients of the ITEMS of daily use and match it with the following list of E-CODES. If any of the ingredients listed below is found, try to avoid it, as it has got PIG FAT; E100, E110, E120, E 140, E141, E153, E210, E213, E214, E216, E234, E252,E270, E280, E325, E326, E327, E334, E335, E336, E337, E422, E430, E431, E432, E433, E434, E435, E436, E440, E470, E471, E472, E473, E474, E475,E476, E477, E478, E481, E482, E483, E491, E492, E493, E494, E495, E542,E570, E572, E631, E635, E904.

Bismillah [IslamCity] FOR THE SAKE OF ALLAH
Peace and Blessing of AlMighty be upon you. Another Inspiring Story !! http://goog_1237866084561/ *Whoever abandons something for the sake of Allaah, http://abdurrahman.org/seerah/index.html He will replace it for him with something better than ithttp://abdurrahman.org/seerah/index.html * “Shaikh Ibraaheem Al-Hilaalee Al-Halabee – a pious and noble scholar – traveled to* Al-Azhar University* in search of knowledge. While seeking knowledge, he became very poor and used to rely on charity. One time, several days passed by and he did not find anything to eat, so he became extremely hungry. So he came out of his room in Al-Azhar to ask for some scraps of food. He found an open door from which a pleasant smell of food was coming out of. So he entered the door and found himself in a kitchen with no one around. There he found some tempting food, so he grabbed a spoon and dipped it in, but when he lifted it to his mouth, he held himself back from eating it, since he realized that he had not been given permission to eat from it. So he left it and returned to his room in the dormitory of Al-Azhar, still hungry and starving. But no less than an hour passed by, when one of his teachers, accompanied by another man, came into his room. And his teacher said to him: ‘*This noble man came to me seeking a righteous student of knowledge to choose for marrying his daughter, and I have chosen you for him. So rise and come with us to his home where we can complete the marriage contract between you and his daughter and you can become part of his household*.’ So Shaikh Ibraaheem struggled to get to his feet, obeying the command of his teacher and went with them. And behold they took him to the very same house he had been to, and which he had entered and dipped the spoon into the food! So when he sat down, the girl’s father married her to him and the food was brought out. It was the *same food* he had put the spoon into before and which he abandoned. But now he ate from it and said to himself: ‘I* withheld from eating it when I had no permission, but now Allaah has given me this food with permission.*’ Afterward, this righteous wife went back with him to Halab, after he had finished his studies. And she bore righteous children for him.” So this is the fruit of patience and this is the result of having taqwaa, as Allaah says: “*And whoever has Taqwaa of Allaah, He will make a way out for him (from hardship), and He will provide for Him from places He never imagined.”* [Surah At-Talaaq: 2-3] *But as for those who are hasty – those who do not distinguish between the truth and falsehood, seeking after the transitory vanities of this worldly life – they will never experience anything but grief and sorrow in their hearts, for they will never attain the worldly life nor will they ever achieve ReligionThis is because they forget – or perhaps neglect – the saying of Allaah: “Is not Allaah sufficient for His servant?”* [Surah Az-Zumar: 36] As for those who are patient and firm and who have Taqwaa, they will gain ascendancy in this life and glory and honor with their Lord on the Day of Judgement. And Allaah says: “*So give the glad tidings to the patient ones.” [Surah Al-Baqarah: 155] And He says: “Verily, the patient ones will be given their reward without any reckoning*.” [Surah Az-Zumar: 10] Footnotes: [1] Translator’s Note: He is referring to Imaam Al-Albaanee, who was a student of Shaikh Muhammad Raaghib At-Tabbaakh.

Bismillah [IslamCity] TIMING IS EVERYTHING
*TIMING IS EVERYTHING* ** ** *He has made everything beautiful in it's time.* *He has also set eternity in the hearts of men;* *Yet they cannot fathom what God has done* *From beginning to end * ** ** ** When it comes to prayer, most of us think about timing--- that is, we think about what the timing of God's answers should be. When the answer doesn't come immediately, we anxiously wonder why. But Quraan tells us, there is a time for everything. And a season for every activity under heaven. God's timing is not the same as ours. His ways are not our ways. We live our lives with a sense of earthly time. God sees things from an eternal perspective. Living in our time- bound world and waiting for God's timing is often hard, especially when we ask for things we want or need now. We have to remember that even though we pray and have faith, the final outcome and timing are in God's Hands. He says there is a time to heal so if you pray for healing and nothing happens don't be mad at God , sometimes He uses physical ailments to get our attention so He can speak to us. He wants us to fervently turn to Him. So keep praying and don't give up hope. The same is true when praying that God will save someone's life. We don't have the final say over anyone's hour of death. The Quraan says, there is a time to die but we are not the ones who can decide that. God does. And we must accept His decision. We can pray,but He determines the outcome. We have to allow Him to do that without resenting or getting angry at Him. God's timing is perfect. And it is liberating when we surrender to it. There is a great freedom in laying out our concerns and desires before Him and then trusting Him for the outcome. What joy there is In looking for God's goodness to us in the midst of our times of waiting. While you may not be able to understand exactly what God is doing, you can trust that He is doing something. He has your best interests at heart. And He will make everything in your life beautiful in His perfect time.
Bismillah [IslamCity] ISLAMIC WISDOM
Since I understood four things, I have discarded all other knowledge. First, that my daily sustenance has already been apportioned to me and will neither increase nor decrease by my futile efforts, so I strive to increase it no more. Second, I alone and no one else can atone from my sins, so I devote myself to the Lord. Third, I know that I will never be able to escape death, which is in our pursuit, so I have prepared myself to meet him. Fourth, I know that God is observing me; therefore I refrain from doing what I must not do.

Even though I keep my eyes tightly closed against the morning light as long as possible. Thank You, Allah, that I can see. There are many who are blind. Even though I huddle in my bed and put off the physical effort of rising. Thank You, Allah, that I have the strength to rise. There are many who are bedfast. Even though the first hour of the day is hectic, when socks are lost, toast is burned, tempers are short, Thank You, Allah, for my family. There are many who are lonely. Even though our breakfast table never looks like the pictures in the ladies' magazines and the menu is at times unbalanced, Thank You, Allah, for the food we have. There are many who are hungry. Even though the routine of my job is often monotonous, Thank You, Allah, for the opportunity to work. There are many who have no work. Even though I grumble and bemoan my fate from day to day and wish my modest circumstances were not quite so modest, Thank You, Allah, for the gift of Life. ZAHRA * cherub2A.gif

Firmness of heart is needed for achievement, but a firm friend does not lack friends. Be a firm friend, that you may find friends innumerable; for without friends you will be left helpless. Generally the wolf seizes his prey at the moment when a year-old sheep has strayed alone from the flock.

Worship is like a work of art mastered only by the sincere, the learned scholars who practice what they know, who live and walk among people like everyone else, but in their hearts they seek freedom in the serenity of the wilderness. Because of this yearning they continue to grow until their spirits soar and become united with the numinous. About such God says, Indeed they are the finest of human beings, cherished by us.

Bismillah [IslamCity] MATHEMATICS
*One* One Day a person came to Ali (A.S.), thinking that since Ali thinks he is too smart, I'll ask him such a tough question that he won't be able to answer it and I'll have the chance to embarrass him in front of all the Arabs. He asked 'Ali (A.S.), tell me a number, that if we divide it by any number from 1-10 the answer will always come in the form of a whole number and not as a fraction.' Hazrat Ali (A.S.) Looked back at him and said, 'Take the number of days in a year and multiply it with the number of days in a week and you will have your answer.' The person got astonished but as he was a Mushrik he still didn't believe Ali (A.S.). He calculated the answer Ali (A.S.) gave him. To his amazement he came across the following results: The number of Days in a Year = 360 (in Arabic Calendar) The Number of Days in a Week = 7 The product of the two numbers = 2520 2520 divide by 1 = 2520 2520 divide by 2 = 1260 2520 divide by 3 = 840 2520 divide by 4 = 630 2520 divide by 5 = 504 2520 divide by 6 = 420 2520 divide by 7 = 360 2520 divide by 8 = 315 2520 divide by 9 = 280 2520 divide by 10= 252 *Second* One day a person came to Ali (A.S.). He was planning to ask Ali (A.S.) such a question which would take Ali (A.S.) a long time to answer and because of that his Maghrib Prayers would be delayed. He asked, 'Ali you say you know everything in the world, then tell me which animals lay eggs and which animals give birth to their young ones Hazrat Ali (A.S.) looked back at him smiled and said, 'The animals who have their 'EARS' outside their body give birth to their young ones and the animals who have their 'EARS' inside their body lay eggs.' *Third* A person was about to die, and before dying he wrote his Will which went as follows 'I have 17 Camels, and I have three sons. Divide my Camels in such a way that My eldest son gets half of them, the second one gets 1/3rd of the total and my youngest son gets 1/9th of the total number of Camels' After his death when the relatives read his will they got extremely perplexed and said to each other that how can we divide 17 camels like this? So after a long hard thought they decided that there was only one man in Arabia who could help them: 'Ali Ibne Abi Taalib.' So they all came to the door of Ali (A.S.) and put forward their problem. Hazrat Ali (A.S.) said, 'Ok. I will divide the camels as per the man's will.' He said, 'I will lend one of my camels to the total which makes it 18 (17+1=18), now lets divide as per his will' The Eldest gets 1/2 of 18 = 9 The second one gets 1/3 of 18 = 6 and The Youngest gets 1/9 of 18 = 2 Now the total number of camels = 17 Then Hazrat Ali (A.S.) said, 'Now I will take my Camel back.' This was the genius that Hazrat Ali was in his time.

Bismillah [IslamCity] OBAMA'S FIRST CALL
Obama First Calls Abbas http://www.truthout.org/012209J Patrick Martin, The Globe and Mail: US President Barack Obama's first full day in office certainly made a big impression on some people. His first action - the suspension of the Guantanamo system for alleged Islamic terrorists - caught the attention of Muslims around the world. And his first overseas telephone call, to Palestinian Authority president Mahmoud Abbas, stunned Palestinians and many Israelis as well. 'We were not expecting such a quick call from President Obama, but we knew how serious he is about the Palestinian problem,' said a very excited Yasser Abed Rabbo, a senior adviser to Mr. Abbas.
Bismillah [IslamCity] POP CULTURE IN THE NAME OF ISLAM
*Pop Culture in the Name of Islam *By - YVONNE RIDLEY I FEEL very uncomfortable about the pop culture which is growing around some so-called Nasheed artists. Of course I use the term ''Nasheed artists'' very lightly. Islamic ''boy bands'' and Muslim ''popstars'' would probably be more appropriate. Eminent scholars throughout history have often opined that music is haram, and I don't recall reading anything about the companions whooping it up to the sound of music. Don't get me wrong. I''m all for people letting off steam, but in a dignified manner and one which is appropriate to their surroundings. *The reason I am expressing concern is that just a few days ago at a venue in Central London, sisters went wild in the aisles as some form of pop-mania swept through the concert venue. And I'm not just talking about silly, little girls who don't know any better; I am talking about sisters in their 20's, 30's and 40's, who squealed, shouted, swayed and danced. *Even the security guys who looked more like pipe cleaners than bulldozers were left looking dazed and confused *as they tried to stop hijabi sisters from standing on their chairs.* Of course the stage groupies did not help at all as they waved and encouraged the largely female Muslim crowd to 'get up and sing along.' (They're called ''Fluffers'' in lap-dancing circles!) The source of all this adulation was British-born Sami Yusuf, who is so proud of his claret-colored passport that he wants us all to wave the Union Jacks. I'm amazed he didn't encourage his fans to sing 'Land of Hope and Glory.' Brother Sami asked his audience to cheer if they were proud to be British, and when they responded loudly, he said he couldn't hear them and asked them to cheer again. *How can anyone be proud to be British? Britain is the third most hated country in the world. The Union Jack is drenched in the blood of our brothers and sisters across Iraq, Afghanistan, and Palestine. Our history is steeped in the blood of colonialism, rooted in slavery, brutality, torture, and oppression.* And we haven't had a decent game of soccer since we lifted the World Cup in 1966. Apparently Sami also said one of the selling points of Brand UK was having Muslims in the Metropolitan Police Force! Astaghfur'Allah! Dude, these are the same cops who have a shoot-to-kill policy and would have gunned down a Muslim last year if they could tell the difference between a Bangladeshi and a Brazilian. *This is the same police force that has raided more than 3000 Muslim homes in Britain since 9/11. *What sort of life is there on Planet Sami, I wonder? If he is so proud to be British, why is he living in the great Middle Eastern democracy of Egypt? Apparently the sort of hysteria Sami helped encourage is also in America, and if it is happening on both sides of the Atlantic, then it must be creeping around the globe and poisoning the masses. *Islamic boy bands like 786 and Mecca 2 Medina are also the subject of the sort of female adulation you expect to see on American Pop Idol or the X-Factor*. Surely Islamic events should be promoting restrained and more sedate behaviour. Do we blame the out-of-control sisters? Or do we blame the organizers for allowing this sort of excessive behaviour which demeans Islam? Or do we blame the artists themselves? If those Nasheeds had sisters running in the streets whooping and dancing, however, the Nasheeds may be encouraged because of haram activity surrounding them. Quite frankly, I really don't know how anyone in the Ummah can really let go and scream and shout with joy at pleasure domes when there is so much brutality and suffering going on in the world today.

** ** Prayer is that which enables the soul to realize its divinity. Through prayer human beings worship absolute truth, and seek an eternal reward. Prayer is the foundation-stone of religion; and religion is the means by which the soul is purified of all that pollutes it. Prayer is the worship of the first cause of all things, the supreme ruler of all the world, the source of all strength. Prayer is the adoration of the one whose being is necessary.

Bismillah [IslamCity] JEWISH-MUSLIM DIALOGUE
*Jewish-Muslim dialogue, a necessity* PROMPTED BY THE DOCUMENTARY THE MONSTER AMONG US Mike Ghouse, Dallas, Texas The Jewish Community Center in Dallas recently screened a documentary about Anti-Semitism in Europe called, The Monster among us, produced and directed by Dallas filmmakers Allen and Cynthia Mondell. Watching this film (as well as other films in the past) and listening to the responses of the audience has confirmed my belief that one of the primary obstacles to peace is simply inadequate communications stemming from the unwillingness to see another point of view. If you find this article offensive, please clarify with me before you draw your conclusions, it is our obligation to repair the world. Prior to publication of this article my Jewish, Christian and Muslim friends have reviewed it to ensure it meets the intent as close as it can and it is to improve communications and a civil dialogue. The producers of the movie have reviewed and shared their point of view, which is included in the essay verbatim. Muslims should participate in Jewish events and vice-versa. Staying away from each other will not contribute towards peace-making that both communities so deserve. We have to come together without conditions and learn each others concerns and clarify mis-information and together find solutions. If we don't, the who will? Anti-Semitism is hate for Jews, and to his credit, the producer acknowledged in his comments that both Muslims and Jews are facing this abuse in Europe. As responsible citizens, we need to stand up against hate towards every one. I cannot have peace if others around me aren't peaceful. To borrow a sentence from my friend Sheila Musaji these films are to be viewed as opportunities for dialogue and not to further distance ourselves from the other. We need to consciously guard ourselves from despair and disorientation and focus on hope and goodness to humanity that includes you and I. I challenge the Muslim and Jewish community to watch this film together with a focus on just the film and its content, we must carry a civil dialogue and learn to take the jolts, then we would have developed the capacity to embark on finding a solution to the crux of the world problem - security of Jews and hope for the Palestinians, together we have an opportunity to find solutions. I am planning to have a showing of the film with a panel of Jews, Christians, Muslims, Hindus and others, if you wish to attend, please confirm via an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Sponsorships of a neutral place for 300 People and refreshments are invited.

Bismillah [IslamCity] A TIME TO PONDER AND ACT
visit the site www.labaikyazahra.com *Destruction of Historical Sites in Mecca Medina - Cradle of Islam* *Yet Muslim Ummah Remain Silent! Q. WHY?* The Saudis are now set on unprecedented onslaught of demolishing the birthplace of Prophet Muhammad and other historical structures in the heart of Mecca and Medina, the cradle of Islam, revered by the world's 1.5 billion Muslims. Over the last two decades most of Makkah's 1000-year-old historic sites have been bulldozed and replaced by hotels and other concrete jungles. Failure to protect them from destruction is the biggest tragedy for the Islamic architectural heritage. The Saudi royal family claims to be guardians of the holy places of Islam, and profit hugely from the centuries by visiting believers to Makkah and Medina for pilgrimage. And yet, they are party to this barbaric desecration of the holiest sites in the Islamic world. Today, the religious zealots in Saudi Arabia are not alone. Commercial developers such as Bin Laden Group have joined hands with them and are making hundreds of millions in profits as they build ugly, but lucrative high-rises that are shadowing the Grand Mosque know as the Kaaba. Today Saudi petrodollars have the ability to silence even its most vocal critics, but when all is said and done, history will render a harsh judgment on those who try to wipe out its footprints and steal the heritage of all humanity. The problem is the Saudi's interpretation of Islam; they are opposed to the preservation of the old historic structures due to belief that some Muslims in their ignorance would be overcome with love and awe that historic sites may invoke, leading to idolatrous thoughts. Destruction of the most precious sites in Islam for fear of idolatry by some is like killing a child for fear that he may grow up to be less than pious. In effect, behind the obsessive fear of idolatry lies a complete lack of understanding and total fanaticism of radical Islam, unable even to appreciate its own past. What is the reason for this silence: Is it because Muslims nations have become so overwhelmed by the power of the Saudi denial of Visas for Pilgrimage (Hajj), that we have lost all courage and self-respect? Or is it because we feel a need to cover up Muslim-on-Muslim violence; Muslim-on-Muslim terror; Muslim-on-Muslim oppression? We Muslims constantly rail against any wrongs inflicted on fellow-Muslims by non-believers, but hold our silence when Muslims kill, exploit and terrorize other Muslims. Thus, when the Americans kill Iraqis, or the Russians persecute Chechens; we are rightly offended and resentful. But when Saddam Hussein massacred Kurds and Shias for years, Muslims around the world maintained a discreet silence. So why this conspiracy of silence? Thousands demonstrated against the desecration of the Holy Book Quran at Guantanam and thousand complained at the remark by Congressman Tom Tancredo of Colorado, referring to Makkah and Medina said If there is another 9/11 we should take out their holy places, Where are those zealots now? Why aren't preachers at mosques demanding that the Saudi government halt their destructive plans? Alas, these double standards are what now define the Muslim Community. We have become completely neutered when it comes to criticizing other Muslims. This is not of washing our dirty linen in public but this is the time to self-analyze and self-criticize and these things need to be said out loud, clear and often. *Saudi Arabia, in which Wahhabism is the state form of Islam, has a long history of vandalizing and demolishing historical monuments. Cultural devastation of Islamic heritage sites is not a new phenomenon. In 1801 the Saudis-Wahabbis waged a campaign against the Shia Muslim destroying and defacing the sacred tomb of the Imam Hussein in Karbala, Iraq. Then in early 1920 Saudi rulers Aal-e-Sa'ud bulldozed and levelled a graveyard in Medina - Cemetery of Al-Baqee -and Jannatul Moualla - in the holy city of Makkah that housed the shrines of the holy Prophet Muhammad, his family and his companions. This anniversary falls Oct 9th, (8th Shawal 1426) and is Know as Yaum-e-Ghum*. *The Saudis followed their conquest of Mecca and Medina in the mid-1920s with an orgy of destruction. They levelled the Jannat al-Baqi or Heavenly Orchard at Medina that included graves of the Prophet Muhammad's son Abraham, as well as numerous of the Prophet's relatives and companions. They also looted the Prophet's Shrine in Medina and demolished the cemetery in Mecca that included the graves of Muhammad's mother and grandfather. They completely destroyed mausoleums, mosques, and other honoured sites, including Muhammad's own house. It was even said that they wished to uproot the grave of Muhammad himself and tear down the Kaaba, the stone temple at the centre of Mecca. They were prevented from this last act by pressure from Muslims around the world. Wahabism vandalism continues today, by levelling of five of seven mosques

*Ramadan is the (month) in which was sent down the Qur'an, as a guide to mankind, also clear (Signs) for guidance and judgment (Between right and wrong). So every one of you who is present (at his home) during that month should spend it in fasting, but if any one is ill, or on a journey, the prescribed period (Should be made up) by days later. Allah intends every facility for you; He does not want to put to difficulties. (He wants you) to complete the prescribed period, and to glorify Him in that He has guided you; and perchance ye shall be grateful. -Qur'an, Al-Baqara, 2:185* **
Bismillah [IslamCity] RAMAZAN LESSONS
Take the Remembrance of God Inward *For Muslims:* Do *dhikr* (reciting short du'as, or supplications) silently while you're driving, waiting in line somewhere, or doing endless household tasks. Keep a *thasbi* (the equivalent of a Muslim rosary) in your purse or pocket and use it to count off *du'as* (prayers). *For all:* Spending whatever downtime you have to remember God or peacefully meditate is a great idea for everyone. Thousands of hours go by every year in our work commutes and in chauffeuring our kids around. Why not try to use that time to quiet our minds, remind ourselves of a higher being, and appreciate what we've been given? Tip #2: *Appreciate technology, then tune it out*http://www.beliefnet.com/Ramadanlessons.html?pgIndex=2.

Bismillah [IslamCity] HINDUS CONFESS
Date: Fri, 26 Oct 2007 07:07:36 -0700 Hindus Confess to Gujarat Carnage *Hindus Confess to Gujarat Carnage* *IslamOnline.net Newspapers * [image: Image] A Hindu politician confessed that Modi had given the Hindu mobs the thumbs-up. CAIRO — An Indian weekly magazine has released a series of videotaped confessions of Hindu activists of hacking hundreds of Muslims to death in the southern state of Gujarat and detailing blatant state collusion over the 2002 massacre, reported the *Washington Post* on Friday, October 26. It is a very disturbing story, said Tarun Tejpal, the editor of the weekly * Tehelka *, which released the confessions. It is a story that makes me worry about the kind of India we are living in. The videos showed Hindu activists and politicians bragging about hacking Muslims to death and burning their bodies. Some activists confessed that they doused petrified Muslims in kerosene and burned them alive. Another activist said that he slit open the stomach of a pregnant Muslim woman. There is a complete absence of remorse in these confessions, said Tejpal. The perpetrators of the violence have themselves confessed to the crime. The videos are the result of a six-month investigation by a by a *Tehelka*investigative reporter, who posed as a research scholar and spoke to the activists. Up to 2,500 people, mostly Muslims, were hacked and burnt to death by Hindu extremists in Gujarat in 2002. The carnage took place after 59 Hindu pilgrims were died on train in a fire some blamed on Muslims. India's Supreme Court has accused the Hindu nationalist government in Gujarat of being complicit in the killings. Gujarat carnage was the worst religious violence India had seen in years. India is home to the world's largest Muslim population after Indonesia and Pakistan. Hindus account for more than 80 percent of the country's 1.1 billion population while Muslims make up about 13 percent. *State Collusion* The video also showed an Indian Hindu politician confessing that Gujarat's chief minister Narendra Modi had given the green light for the Hindu extremists to go ahead with their rampage. He (Modi) had given us three days to do whatever we could, admitted Haresh Bhatt, a leader of Bajrang Dal, a hardline Hindu group affiliated to the nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party. He said he would not give us time after that, he said this openly, he was quoted as saying by Reuters. Modi, who is seeking a reelection in December state elections, earlier claimed that the massacre was a spontaneous reaction to the train fire. Arvind Pandya, a Gujarat government counsel at a riot inquiry panel, said Modi's blood was boiling when he first heard of the train fire. His reaction was like this, 'if he were not a minister he would have burst bombs ... detonated a few bombs in Juhapura', Pandya said, referring to a Muslim suburb in Gujarat's main city Ahmedabad. Indian Muslims said the videos were no surprise. None of these confessions are new to us. We have experienced all this firsthand, said Shakeel Ahmed, a legal activist in Gujarat and a member of the Association for the Protection of Civil Rights. He, however, said that the videotaped confessions mount pressures on the state government to act against the perpetrators. The perpetrators themselves are admitting to the heinous crimes, he said. Whether it will bring justice depends on political will. Many of the accused are our rulers today. Who will investigate them? Right groups complain that little has been done to catch the culprits. They insist that there was no trace of accountability on government officials who reportedly engineered the massacre. Only about a dozen people have been convicted from 3,200 cases filed http://www.islamonline.net/servlet/Satellite?c=Article_Ccid=1193049147978pagename=Zone-English-News/NWELayout Do they not travel through the land, so that their hearts (and minds) may thus learn wisdom and their ears may thus learn to hear? Truly it is not their eyes that are blind, but their hearts which are in their chests.46 Al-Hajj (The Pilgrimage)Holy Quran
