We can go on and on. Can someone tell me how Islam or Muslims where responsible in any of the above or similar scaled immoral events in the history of the human race? To some it seems like, the history of our universe began 11 September 2001. Ayaan Hirsi is one of those a few. I had the unfortunate pleasure of reading one of her recent interviews in a British newspaper. I have posted the link of her interview below for your convenience (1).

She is a Somali women, a Dutch national, and now America's newest weapon of mass destruction against "terror" or Islam if you want it bluntly. Miss Hirsi went to Holland in the early 1990's, as a result of a civil war in Somalia which has since claimed the lives of nearly half a million souls of her race. An experience you would agree, that would have a profound effect on one's faith either way. However, in the case of Ms Hirsi it took the events in New York and the loss of nearly three thousand mainly Americans for her to renounce her religion. Was she related to any of these victims? No she did not even know any of these people. Maybe since becoming a new citizen of the first world, she became more humane towards her new freedom loving, liberal brothers and sisters. Her decision raises a serious question. Is the life of the African or Muslim less significant than that of a Westerner? Maybe it is, maybe that is the reason they call it the third world.

"And when I say that we should defend ourselves against the violence of others, they use their press skilfully to make the world think that I'm calling on violence, period" Malcolm X, 1965. Has anything changed? It is getting tiresome how news about Islam is frequently about one thing; violence and in particular terrorism now a days In most other stories they would give us a little background every now and then. Not when it comes to Islam though, so I thought you might like to know what the fundamentals of Islam are. There is one word I used there, that proves a point. Let me change that sentence. You might like to know what the pillars of Islam are;

1 - Faith in the Oneness of God and Mohamed as the last prophet;

2 - Daily prayers;

3 - Almsgiving to the needy;

4 - Fasting;

5 - Pilgrimage to Makkah if able.

Similar to the commandments of the other two main faiths you might think. The US propaganda machine is as mighty as her war machine. However, just like their military war, their propaganda war is having the opposite effect. Because Islam is now the largest growing religion in the west. (2)

Ayaan Hirsi is in a league of her own, in her quest of hate. Unlike most other critics she blames the religion of Islam itself for the problems of this world in describing it as an evil ideology. Surely its more logical to blame human beings than a religion. No, not if you have exhausted your reasons of going to war with Islam. Ms Hirsi as their new pen weapon, the US is now attacking Muslims in a new territory. History and intelligence would tell us, that it has never really been about war on terror, but one of the greedy attacker and the needy standing up for themselves.

In her interview Ayaan stated because she gained degree in Political Science in Holland, she was able to make serious decisions about her faith based on sound knowledge, I think it was Bob Marley who said "we build your schools, brainwash education to make us the fools" Can this women's ideological stand get anymore futile? A philosopher once lectured 'there are no facts in philosophy' one of his students then swiftly asked 'is that a fact? to which the lecturer replied 'Yes.' In the same manner Hirsi admitted that "generosity, kindness and taking care of the poor and elderly" were some of the positive aspects of Islam. Pardon me Ma'am but where is the evil in that?

Ms Hirsi who regards herself a feminist then went on to criticise the treatment of women under Islam in Somalia. Between June and December 2006 the south of Somalia including the capital Mogadishu, enjoyed relative peace, calm and stability under the rule of law of The Islamic Courts Union. For the first time in over sixteen years rape, abuse and other offences against women were considered as crimes and punished accordingly.(3)

This is in contrast to the anarchy rule of our American sponsored warlord government. In reality our so called government consists of nothing more than a group of terrorists who have committed every crime under the sun against their people. However since they share common values, such as greed with the Americans they get rewarded with seats in one of the most illegitimate governments in the world. So much for liberty and spreading democracy.

On a light note, since the love season is here, I thought I say a few romantic words about my ideal Muslim queen. Sorry Ms Hirsi! unfortunately based on recent events I don't think you would make a good candidate this time.

                                  

My Muslim Queen

She is my mother

often acting father

she is my sister.

She is my other, the better half of me

She is my past.

She is my present, a gift from above

my hope, the light of my love.

Shining bigger than China

she represents the world

better than ever been

she is my Muslim Queen.

 

She is my life wire

I am her line of fire

no, not a warrior

I am her defender.

The patient Halima

the meaning in the name

let the superficial

loose the deeper game.

Shame you can't see

beyond the vale

she might be pale

brown or dark skinned.

She's more than an African queen

she represents my deen.

 

Some Western retarded

can't take the highly regarded.

She wears a spiritual crown

like a justice gown.

So we never utter silly words

like; "Bitches and Hoes"

Our revelation goes

Heaven is under her feet and toes.

More powerful than America

she represents the here, the after,

the in between

forever my Muslim Queen!

Very Very Deep... So well put together......... I cant believe someone would denounce their fatih on a tragic event that happenned else where.........9-11 thats another propaganda... Lets not even mention Iraq and all the innocent Men & Women and the future the children that are being killed daily... Its so sad when will we realize that what we do affects all us of and our future. This is a cycle that has been going on since the beginning of time..only Allah knows when this cycle will end hopefully it will not be Too Late....

Asalaam alaikum;

Beautifully written.

I'd like to share an opinion / observation if I may. As you are doubtless aware, Allah has forbidden riba (usury). It is a major sin in Islam. Now, if you look at the last 250 or so years of history in the "West" you'll notice - IF you can remove your observational and logistic processes from the dialectic imposed upon us - that the world's economy has become more and more based on riba. The entire infrastructure is based on it; and it is the base of their economic power structure.

The Muslim world is, unfortunately, tangled up in this. So much so that it is often not aware of it. No Islamic government can willingly engage in riba: least of all to the point where its entire economy is enslaved to the world's riba based economy (which, BTW, is not affiliated with any nation or government and answers to no law but its own). It is for this reason that there are NO ISLAMIC GOVERNMENTS ANYWHERE ON EARTH, and haven't been for almost a century.

Of course the after effects of riba on a world wide basis are clear. Industrial pollution that is destroying our environment, famine in a world that can easily feed itself, wars fought for no reason other than so bankers and multinational corporations can get richer, etc. are all results of this.

The real reason that Islam is "The Enemy" is that Islam is the only force in the world that poses a threat to the world's riba economy. They don't care if we grow beards, wear hijab, or make salat. The rantings and half-baked opinions of the "noisemakers" mean nothing, and are permitted to saturate the media to divert our attention from this fact.

Ironically, the correct application of the principles of Islam will not only solve the problems cause by riba, and remove the riba economic infrastructure, but can replace it with a holistic and halal economy that is "more democratic than democratic". It will permit all to pursue halal wealth in an equal and level manner.

I invite you to examine Surat0-ul Ta Ha 20: 90 - 99.

Ma'a Salaam,
Dawoud

Thank you for the insight brother, I have looked and find this verse in Sura Al-Baqrah instead 3: 275 - "Those who eat Riba will not stand (on the Day of Resurrection) except like the standing of a person beaten by Shaitan (Satan) leading him to insanity."

1)Riba An-Nasiah, i.e intrest on lent money
2)Riba Al-Fadl, i.e taking supirior thing of the same kind of good by giving more of the same kind of goods of inferior quality.

BISMILAHI RAHMANI RAHIM!

Asalamucalaykum walalo!

You know same thing Aar?.................The first ever time i heared about this Woman was when a friend of mine @ work mensioned her to me in a casual way. From then onwoods i made it my buisness to educate myself about her and what she stands for.

Unfortunatly what i found out was dismul and pathitic to say the lest. This so called "friend" of the United States is no more then a typical school Yard bully who gets off having attention showed to her by the misbegottern media of the western world. She is a show-off who has no regard for anyone but herself and her Evil needs which can only be met by procastting herself as a "new Age" Women with western Ideas and Morals.

She is Unworthy of being mensioned by all races lest of all by the Proud Somalian people who she disrespects with every ounc of words that cames out of her Uneducated/unclean mouth. She is not repping for me nor my Somalian brothers and sisters we are ashamed for her as she has no self-worth nor self believe as an Individual. If she speaks @ all she speaks for herself and herself ALONE........mark my words those deeds she has commited and takern part in will came to hunt her one day!

We say loudly and proudly as first Muslim women but Mostly as SOMALIAN "Ladies" because this is who we are "LADIES"....... we Have No calm to her and we do not regonise her as a "Lady" she is just a Western WHOE who prostutes herself for money and fame. I feel pity for her family who i found out have disowned her because of the International Embarrassment she caused them ..........Lord have Mercy.

I AM PROUD TO BE A SOMALIAN MUSLIM LADY; who carries with her the Proud heritage of her people and country but most of all i carry the Name of my father and Mother with Honour and will never God welling disrespect myself as this "Media Whoe" Has.

SOMALIAN LADIES are the Queens of their father and brother we are the Back Bone of our Nations.........we are the bearers of The Next Generation of Proud SOMALIAN WARRIORS who carry their flags with pride as SOILDERS OF ALLAH(SWT)

with loads of Love and Respect

your sister Laila Bint Hassan

As-Salaamu Alaikum Aar,

I loved the poem and was greatly inspired by the words...It is good to read a positive view of women, especially Muslim Women....I am from a Western background, born and raised in America....However, I adore and admire the Islamic way of life....As a westerner, I must say it is very hard to live a righteous life when the pressures of society is so great.....It rakes a strong and highly secured individual to negate all the westerner philosophies that we were engrained to believe.......Each day I make an effort to change my western habits......Your poem inspires me more to pursue a life that I know is meant for me......Shukran, my brother......May Allah continue to bless you.........

Simply put, I don't care!!

 
I do not expect you to post this but I had to say something.
While I enjoyed your writing as a very educational and well written testament to your faith, I could not help but correct you on a few things. Genocide does not have to be recognized by the U.N. to be genocide. The fact is every day in Africa hundreds of Christians are being slaughtered for their beliefs. While the total is not exact, the total deaths in the name of Muhammad are just as appalling as any Christians atrocities. I believe that one God rules all. Whether you pray to Allah or God makes no differnce.
It is the your writings that will always divide us. You pair US policies and Christianity together instead of seeing that they are different. The west is not at war in the name of God. They are at war for a lot of different reasons. We seek to protect ourselves from the people who seek to destroy us for our beliefs and culture. You do not understand that no one wanted to take on terrorism until 9-11 (which is not propaganda, it happened, and terrorists took blame) including the US. Every country just figured that as long as it stayed abroad it did not matter. I am not blaming your religion, it is beautiful and peaceful, But just as the KKK of Christianity, it can be corrupted by some. It can be used to spread ideas of hate.
Slavery in the past was also spread by many BLACK MUSLIMS SLAVE OWNERS and is not the sole responsibility of White Christians
A different kind of pain
When a northern African acknowledges faith in Jesus Christ, he is viewed as a traitor to his family, his neighbors, and his culture. And choosing to accept this status does not come without its consequences. African Christians often forfeit their burial rights, their standing within the community, and the love of their family.

In addition, African culture does not view child custody in the same light as most Westerners. The dowry given for a marriage often dictates to whom a child belongs. As a result, many Muslim families have taken children away from their parents when the mother or father converted to Christianity.

Violence persists
In several instances, the persecution of African Christians has also included violence. Even in recent days, religious extremists have struck out with horrendous acts of torture.

Compass reports that a Nigerian pastor and 48 members of his congregation were among 200 killed February 2004. Religious militants had attacked the church in a rampage within the predominantly Christian village. In addition, they went through the village killing Christians and burning down their houses.

Compass goes on to report that, the day after the pastor’s funeral, a group of bandits burned down two additional church sanctuaries

Beautifully excecuted. Thank you for requesting an Add, its a pleasure to be on your list. Lack of misunderstanding fuels fear and this "new" WAR against terror. The uninquisitive mind is the soil where seeds of ignorance can be planted and set their roots.

In Australia we openly discuss tolerance of difference when what we should really be exploring is and understanding of the concept of multiple realities and common respect and appreciation for difference. It is wonderful to come on myspace and be inspired by others. you are one of a kind.

One Love

salam my brother

i just saw your page off a friend's page. in my perspective i felt ms.hirisi was wrong on so many levels she takes philosphy and a degree to say what's wrong with the religion of Islam. If it wasnt for the religion how would she even get the degree? if it wasn't for Allah(swt) the most gracious, most merciful would she really be here on this earth? she should praise Allah(SWT) then denounce the religion. Life might be nice for her right now, but i wonder who she will call for when she goes down into the grave. I try to show people Islam is not the negative and Alhamdulilah someone is on the path as me...KEPT IT UP MY BROTHER. SPREAD WORLD PEACE, GIVE PEACE A CHANCE 4 ONCE.


SALAM,MUNA A.


p.s. when it come 2 religion n politics i can tlk 4ever but it is the ones that i thank to take the time to listen.
