.Prophet {PBUH)says,

“WE WILL ESTABLISH A STATE WHERE A YOUNG WOMEN LADEN WITH JEWELERY WILL BE ABLE TO GO ALONE FROM YEMEN TO BASRA.SHE SHALL HAVE NO FEAR BUT THE FEAR OF ALLAH.”
Tell me a name of one Muslim area where this hadees is practically demonstrated.,
This is not happen in any Muslim world even the richest Sandia the house of Islam can not give such protection to Muslim woman.
So just follow the approach what is real happening in Muslim world and this is to keep her in black gown as symbol of slavery of men.
Like this all other mentioned ayats have become only impractical and write only part of Islam.
JAI like characters are only following the realities and what is happening around us on the name of Islam.

There is fine line between what you know and what you think you know.

Democracy by definition is a vague concept, if you think what everybody believes or calls a democracy is NOT a democracy, then it is not democracy and I cannot change your mind. You seem to believe you some how know, what is allowed in democracy and what is not; I am not that confident about my understanding

> India is a big democracy then why muslims in india are victimized while people like Mr Modi go scott free.

Bush is living free in US, what do you say about that? The system around you is so complex that some people just get away by influence. Humans are not machines, so no social system ever stays in its ideal position. As long as time continues, it would never stay as it is (or it was or it will be). There always was-is-and-will-be a margin of error.

You should look at it like human body, if one part of you gets sick it doesn’t necessarily mean other parts get it too. You got cold doesn’t effect your eye sight or hearing. If you take appropriate care of it, you would get your health back; so is the society — its a continuous struggle and there are no fullstops.

I don’t expect you to understand the depth of what I say here, but I hope you would give it a try.

If you ever come across the translation of Namaz, you will find that only the first few line or the “sanaa” is the praise of Allah, then from Surah Fatiha till the end it is what we ask for ourselves and others.

As far as rotting in hell is concerned , i know, you (assuming that you are a hindu, apologies if i am wrong) also have a concept of “suwarg” and “narak” , the ones who are pious and kind to their fellow men will go to suwarg and the rest to narak. “Paap” and “Pune” . Without the concept of reward and punishment no one will behave.

“Where is the “real” Islam that you are talking about? ”
Well, it really pains me to say, that due to our (muslim’s) ignorance , we have left the religion to the mullahs who are cluess about it. It pains me to say that the religion which took pride in have peace as its first and primary weapon, is dominated by blood thirsty mullahs. Jihad or war is only permitted if the existance of muslims is under threat. I think the modern day courts of law also forgives a murder committed in self defense. If would be wrong to single out Islam in this aspect, but as you have mentioned, you have only seen the illierate mullahs and their followers who are ready to kill on the slightest incident.

I have no way of proving it, except for my verbal assurance that, the peace loving muslims are there, who are working to bring a change.

Dear Jai,

Unfortunatley i dont see the change comming sometime soon, it will take time but i am hopefull it will come. It requires hard work, its up to us muslims to struggle and work it out.

Best Regards

Why would the indian premier during Sharm-Al-Sheikh admit that they have no information from military branch as to what RAW was comitting in Afghanistan and Balochistan. Iam privy to that conversation behind closed doors. If the civilian government does want to stop RAW they should do now to stablize both Afghanistan (by cutting off its funding through indian consulates) as anymore provocation would lead to same consequences as happened to Pakistan during the Cold War era.

China is not a democracy but its military branch is seperate from its civilian branch which controls the governance. India is a big democracy then why muslims in india are victimized while people like Mr Modi go scott free. How can a President of United States Veto a bill when the elected member of congress or senate pass it. I thought democracy is about the right of voters and there elected leaders not about a one man show. Everyone in Congress and Senate wanted India to be exempted from nuclear watchdogs but president Bush did not agree, he kept those clauses in the nuclear deal and in the end signed with those watchdogs on India’s nuclear programme. A democratic institution wont Veto its people’s demand.

If our leaders worked to give comforts to the people they would be given comfort by the same people. They dont belong in Pakistan they belong in Dubai, England or Saudi Arabia. There lifestyle in those countries are expensive so they need money afford such a lavish lifestyle.

We had ambitions but without a good leader people will loose faith, they would turn to faith of religion and become extremists. Those people if can get justice, good governance from a good will not need to indulge in islamization and total loss of faith in values and system.

Mr.Sajjad, I apologize if I hurt your sentiments but you have to understand that we will create our opinions only on the version of Islam that we see and experience day to day. Where is the “real” Islam that you are talking about? Why does it not come out of hiding and teach a lesson to these “people with vested interests”?

I have many Muslim friends and they basically are nice people as long as religion is not involved. Let me give you an example of the liberal nature of Hindu religion and the narrow thinking of Islam.

In India, during Ramzan, even Non-Muslims greet each other with “Id Mubarak” messages. A Hindu will tell another Hindu “Id Mubarak” but a Muslim will never greet another Hindu, less alone another Muslim “Happy Diwali”.

For us, god is a supernatural force, a force who loves us unconditionally, who forgives us for the small mistakes we make like a mother/father does, at the same time, punish us if we don’t mend our ways but not in a cruel way.

When my god tells me that we have to pray to him 5 times a day, tells me that non-believers will rot in hell and they should be killed or made to pay taxes, he doesn’t seem like a god anymore to me. I thought god had much more important things to do with the creation that write a rule book where he writes about a husband beating a wife if she does not comply!!

But anyway, forget the above, it is Muslims own business what they follow. The problem today to the region and humanity is Pakistan, an Islamic nation. The problem begins when you mix religion with state matters. Religion should be a personal tool towards god and salvation and men should be credited with a little brain to create their own society rules.

> Then i believe RAW should also be headed by the Civillian government, would you believe the communist government in China appointing a civilian head to a people’s liberations army?

As far as I know, RAW is under civilian govt. control. Civilian govt. of India can cut its (or military) budget, if it wants. They do not have their own revenue sources other than budget allocations. I don’t have first-hand knowledge about China, but I do not believe it is a democracy.

> Civilian democratic heads of our State in Pakistan are already sold commodities to the White’s in American or England so its easier for those people to control the democratically elected politicians.

It is easier to blame on heads-of-state. Why do you think heads-of-your-state sold themselves to West? Why didn’t they find enough money and comfort in Pakistan?

> We need a middle class leader someone who has no connections in America, UK or Saudi Arabia. He would bring all institutions into a centralized leadership which would put us on a path to progress. Right now we are heading nowhere with our eyes closed.

Leadership is not sufficient. Society is more important: a society which seeds right values and ambitions is what makes or breaks a country.
