I’m here on this trip to reaffirm the special relationship between Israel and the United States, my abiding commitment to its security
Looks like MR is NOT voting in the 2008 election. Check out what the Arab News media have said about this here.
Edit: I will vote still, just because I want to see a Black man become the President of the United States. Other then that, both candidates are not in the benefit for the Muslims in my opinion.
Video features Imam Siraj Wahhaj, Nouman Ali Khan, Khalid Latif and others.
EDIT: The YouTube video embed code has been deactivated. You can view it on YouTube here. Here is also a video from CNN about it here.
Apparently there is a big controversy over the ads due to Imam Siraj Wahhaj supporting it. Islam haters have attacked Imam Siraj saying he is a you know what. What a bunch of idiots!
The Muslims in Muslim countries have the greatest advantage over the Muslims in non-Muslim countries and that is the fact that Islam is not strange in those lands (although some may beg to differ). Muslims in Saudi Arabia, in Pakistan and across to Morocco can pray, fast, give zakat, marry, get zabihah food, take off for Ramadan, Eid, make wudhu and perform the many other actions and obligations in Islam and the Shariah with ease. With ease I say!
On the other hand Muslims in non-Muslim countries, for example in America or Europe, find it much more difficult to simply do the basic obligatory acts. Why then do I say that the best Muslims live in America but also the worst Muslims? In America we are surrounded by a society with decaying morals. The diseases of the heart thrive in American society. Popular culture is fueled by the whispers of shaytan. With all of these great fitan (trials) there are thousands of strong Muslims who hold fast on to the rope of Allah. There are brothers who wear their beard consistently. Sisters observing the hijab and niqab without any hesitation. There are probably those who wake up early in the morning for tahajjud when the rest of us are sleeping. There are Islamic centers and schools within neighborhoods infested with crime. Yet they continue to thrive calling people to the truth. There are Muslim figures, speakers and scholars who do not fear anything but Allah and speak the truth.
Then there are those who are the worst of this ummah living in America. Those who claim Islam but yet accept homosexuality. There are those who say “it’s all about the heart” and completely eliminate the sharia from their lives. There are those who are simply “Muslim by name” and have no desire to live a Muslim life. There are those who love this dunya and the so called “American” lifestyle that their hearts have completely forgotten its Creator.
May Allah (swt) make us all under the shade of His Mercy. Ameen!
Any person, group, organization or government that supports and orders the murder of innocent children in the name of their own benefit is a terrorist in Islam. The Islamic ruling is very clear on killing children. It is forbidden (haram). You may have read about one of the prisoners that was returned to Hezbullah from Israel by the name of Samir Qantar (or Kuntar). Out of everyone that was returned, his name is the most popular since he was doing his jail time for killing a man and his daughter. Samir denies how the young girl died but he proudly claimed he doesn’t regret doing it.
Now for all those people who think Samir is a monster for committing his crime. What about Israel? How many rockets, bullets and bombs have killed 1,000s of Palestinian babies and young children? It is very sad to hear that this young Israeli girl had to face such a tragic death but we should not forget the 1,000s of other children on both sides who have suffered this and much worse.
If Samir is a monster then the Israeli government is an even bigger monster. Samir is like a gremlin while Israel is like godzilla.
May God bring peace and stability to all those who are suffering from the evil monstrous oppressors. Ameen!
Are you serious MR? No way!? A Muslim who supports McCain!? A Muslim who wants 100 more years in Iraq? A Muslim who want’s America to become a Christian Nation!? A Muslim!? Are you sure?
Yes I am! In fact he blogs at MuslimMatters.org under the name ‘hamada’. His recent blog post contained a video from FOX News in which he was shedding light on the Obama-Hijabi issue. I never thought Muslims for McCain existed. With all of the bad and negative aspects of Barack Obama, it is clear that in terms of Muslim blood, John McCain is much worse. Not only in that, the Jews love McCain. Especially the Zionists and AIPAC. Joe Lieberman, the former Democrat now Independent (soon to be Republican) is AIPAC’s trump card in Politics. This guy is seen with McCain in Iraq even correcting him on which country is supporting the resistance in Iraq. He is also took McCain on a tour in Israel. They also hooked up in DC.
