  • Outrage greets new Israeli military chief
    http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/38C7D317-77AC-4B68-BEB0-ADB406473FB4.htm During his tenure as Air Force Commander between 2000-2004, Halutz approved and oversaw operations that caused the death of many Palestinian civilians, including numerous children. In July 2002, Halutz ordered the Israeli air force to drop a one-tonne bomb on a Gaza apartment complex, killing 14 civilians, including at least 10 children. The target of the bombing was Salah...
  • Jerusalem engineer wants to demolish Palestinian homes for national park
    JERUSALEM (AP) - The Jerusalem municipality will push ahead with plans to demolish 88 homes in an Arab neighbourhood in the disputed city to make room for a national park, the city engineer overseeing the project told The Associated Press on Wednesday. The plan has infuriated the Palestinians. It comes at a time of growing Israeli-Palestinian tension over the fate of Jerusalem, a city claimed by both as a capital. The demolition campaign, if approved, would be one of the largest i...
  • Messages for People of the Book (Christians & Jews) from the Qur'an
    This is a message to Christians and Jews to believe in Islam and the Qur'an because the Qur'an verifies and affirms the truth of the Bible and the Torah. It is also important to remember that these verses/ayyats apply to Muslims. Muslims are not exempt from making the same mistakes as the previous people. O ye People of the Book! believe in what We have (now) revealed, confirming what was (already) with you, before We change the face a...
  • How divorce cases are handled in Islam
    There are many more ayyats about divorce and marriage but this one is significant because it shows you cannot just say that you divorce your spouse 3 times as some believe. Arbitration before a judge is required with each side being represented by their family and the purpose or preference is that they work out their differences. If ye fear a breach between them twain, appoint (two) arbiters, one from his family, and the other from hers; if ...
  • Repentance/Forgiveness in Islam is conditional
    The Qur'an is very clear that your repentance is not accepted if it was done intentionally. Repentance is said below in the ayyats from the Qur'an (4:17-4:18) to be accepted if the act was done in ignorance and you repent soon after. Ayyat 18 explains that Allah does not accept repentance from those who continue to do evil deeds. So in otherwords you cannot continue to do evil and repent and continue on with the same actions. ...
  • Polygamy in Islam is an exception and not the rule based on the Qur'an
    This is such a confusing subject for both Muslims and non-Muslims but the Holy Qur'an makes it clear that Polygamy is permitted as an exception, not a rule under exceptional circumstances and the Qur'an declares it is not allowed except for the Prophet (PBUH) as it was for all prophets to ensure their lineage continued. As we can see below the Qu'an mentions the marriage of up to 4 orphans in the course of justice (in the Qur'an this was written during a time of war when many men were...
  • Dubai Norway (Marte Deborah Dalelv) Rape Case Truth/Update
    I was shocked and outraged when I first heard of this case on the news because it was a story done so well that seemed to be a clear case of the victim being arrested for no reason. But then Iasked myself some questions and wondered if there could be more to the story? Why would the UAE and Dubai who admittedly depend on foreign investment and Western tourism which they have worked so hard to attract do this? Some less than reputable groups would gleam that "see...
  • Qur'an Compels Muslim to Speak the truth even against family
    This is a very significant quote that compels Muslims to do justice and tell the truth even against a loved one. 4:135 (Y. Ali) O ye who believe! stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to Allah, even as against yourselves, or your parents, or your kin, and whether it be (against) rich or poor: for Allah can best protect both. Follow not the lusts (of your hearts), lest ye swerve, and if ye distort (justice) or decline to do justice, verily Allah is well- acquainted with...
  • Qur'an Surah Revelation - Location Which Surah was revealed in Madinah/Makkah(Mecca) ?
    I think this is very important when reading the Qur'an, it gives you an idea of the context and situation it was written other. Especially because anti-Islamists try and take a few select verses from the Qur'an out of context in order to convince others that Islam is violent and intolerant to non-Muslims. We must remember the conditions each verse was made under, and also take into consideration other supporting verses when reading and interpreting the Qur'an. If one verse...
  • Reply about China, Islam and Christianity
    RPearce says: Yes, Mulims in China are free to build Mosques, in exactly the same way Christians are allowed to build Churches. And, just like with Priests, all Imans are approved by, and then appointed by, the Chinese state. You will find lots of sites complaining about the Chinese restrictions on the Christians. ======== In France, they have strict restrictions on Imam's, you need to have a Master's to be an Imam. In other Western countries they pla...
  • My Summary on the Urumqi, Xinjiang Uighur Violence
    There is no doubt this is based on separatist activity. I have found the claims of the Uighur Protesters contradicted in so many ways. A few interesting facts: 1. Xinjiang has 13 Ethnic Minorities, most of which are Muslims, yet only Uighur's are protesting and they are the majority in Xinjiang http://www.china.org.cn/english/MATERIAL/139389.htm 2. Uighur's are exempt from China's one child policy 3. The two Uighur's killed in the Shaoguan Toy Fac...
  • Comments about Uighur Protest in Vancouver over Xinjiang, China
    I do not agree with people complaining that Uighur's are protesting. It is your right to protest if you want, and there were a lot of people bashing Uighur's for this. I do not agree with some of the racists bashing Uighur's, unfortunately in Canada there are lots of racists who do not like new Canadians. But what I do not understand, is that I cannot find any solid information about why some Uighur's are upset with China. I have heard the accusations, but hav...
  • More comments about the recent Uighur and Han violence in Xinjiang
    I am very saddened at the violence in Xinjiang, where fellow Chinese (Han and Uighur) have been fighting amongst each other. I hope that the people of Xinjiang will not fall into the trap and violence that was set by separtists. Regardless of your ethnic background, China has the policy that "everyone is Chinese" and that achieving peace and harmony can only be done through equal treatment of all citizens. I also do not think it is fair to villify Uighurs ...
  • Response To People Who Say Qur'an Was Not Written On Paper
    Many people assert the Qur'an could not have been committed to paper during the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), as paper was non-existent in Arabia at the time and that research has shown the Qur'an was written in different bits and pieces on wood and animal hyde.Here are two non-Islamic sources that virtually prove the above assertions to be incorrect:http://www.answers.com/topic/muhammadAccording to the source above (which is in turn s...

    A Filthy Man By Areeb Yasir Recently, I witnessed the tragic separation of a daughter and her parents. A grossly incompetent husband stripped her of her last esteem and tore this wonderful woman from her loving parents. Why? How? Simply put, this filthy man bluntly told her parents ‘don’t ever call your daughter again.’ And than, he took her and his two daughters to a different province, where she knows no one; where he can further hinder her helpless. After performing Haj...
  • Canada Makes More Sense
    This is what an educated Canadian said on CBC about Ann McLellan's comment about us not being prepared for transit attacks. It's refreshing to see that many Canadians are educated and rational unlike our Liberal government.

What some Canadians had to say about McLellan's comments on CBC view point: I have no desire whatsoever to become "psychologica...

    My response to a viewpoint article from Tom Velk on CBC http://www.cbc.ca/news/viewpoint/vp_velk/20050805.html I agree that countries should not allow hate-mongering and other illegal activities from any people but to point the finger at every immigrant and belittle Islam while ignoring other forms of terrorism and the true causes is irresponsible and anti-Islamic in nature. Throughout the world, whether it be the news or on-line forums, people are quick to ...
  • Allah is GOD in "Aramaic", the language Jesus spoke
    Allah is GOD in "Aramaic", the language Jesus spoke With Ramadan around the corner (generally accepted as tomorrow if the new moon is sighted) I felt like doing some research and it turns out what my friend said is true (god is "Allah" in Armaic") and hopefully the Christians that knock on my door every few months will come back soon (although they promised to visit soon last time we spoke). It is a historical fact that Jesus spoke the "Aramaic" language so n...

  • Of Culture and Religion
    Of Culture and Religion By Areeb Yasir Vancouver The biggest challenge I faced when entering the Muslim religion, by my own accord; was the different cultures involved in the community. It would seem that Islam plays a back seat role to culture. In particular this is the most obvious in the Pakistani and Fijian communities. When I asked a question from one of the brothers pertaining to family life (in regards to if leaving them for 40 or more days for the sake of Jam...
  • American Intolerance For Islam
    I went through an interesting experience on a forum that I enjoy reading through about my favorite car. This is the same day I read that Islamophobia is on the rise in America. (see http://www.cbc.ca/cp/world/050511/w051194.html) I went through a forum where someone survived a horrific crash and actually walked away. Eventually people mentioned god must have intervened and a few people disagreed but there was no real hostility. However, one person mentioned they ...
