Over 600 people attended a unique event held in Manchester with a further 2000 people watching live online. The event brought together local and national Muslim leaders to address the current rise in attacks against Islamic values by mainstream politicians and the media. In particular the esteemed panelists discussed the latest set of measures proposed in the new Government report, ‘Tackling Extremism in the UK.’ The report sets out a number of measures including TEBOs (Terrorism and Extremism Behavior Orders) which are equivalent to ASBOs that could be placed on Muslim speakers and Imams who the government alleges are promoting ‘extremism’. Thus they could be prohibited from attending mosques, delivering talks, meeting with particular Muslims, having access to phones or the internet etc…

Supporting the winning team with most Money and Power without Principles…in Football that’s called ‘glory hunting’, in Islam its called ‘taking the lesser if two evils’ during elections. I wish some Muslims were as principled with the Ummah as they are with their Football teams 🙂
It is our duty to support our Ummah in its time of need, follow its results it’s wins and losses, whether it’s an easy victory or sudden death. Unlike Football, Islam is not a spectator sport. Going mad about voting for this Mayor or that Councillor or MP, and then straight after elections 99% of all Facebook posts from many Muslims is about football, our happiness and our sorrows, our sense of victory and loss, our sense of honour and shame..wasted on the ‘Bread and Circuses’ of today. Also to those ‘pundits’ which gave the ‘lesser of two EVILS’ fatwa and now gone back to teaching Tajweed and Aqueedah detached from reality until the next election…Shame on you! We should not follow the aspiring ‘fan’, ‘spectator’ or ‘pundit’ we should gain knowledge, verify our knowledge and carry Dawa.. If voting and then watching the footie, is the new ‘British Islam’ the Kuffar are succeeding if this lifestyle continues.

Clarifying the understanding on Ashura and what its significance from Sharia perspective.

Illumination of the Mind by Ustadh Kamal Abu Zahra

Musa (as) finds himself in a dark, cold, wintery night, lost with his family and yet he sees a small defiant flame flickering on a mountain. He saw the fire an was filled by hope of supplies and directions, but rather…
?????? ?????? ???????? ??????? ???? ????????; ?????????? ???????? ??? ????????.. ??????????? ?????? ?????????????? ??????????. ???????? ???????? ??????? ????????. ??? ???????????? ???????? ????????????. ???????? ??????? ??????? ??? ??? ???????? ???????? ??? ??????????? ??????????

“He saw the fire and he was warmed by hope. He found a fire that warms souls and spirits as a provision for the greatest journey of all. ” (Syed Qutb). When he reached the fire: “The universe fell silent in responsiveness to this conversation. Alone in the desert, surrounded by complete darkness, in total silence.” The struggle of Musa (as) was most like ours, and his Ummah most like ours, so I hope the heart of a Dawa carriers is ignited in us just as the fire that was lit on the mountain top drew in Musa (as) to his Prophethood. I will be identifying key aspects of tarbiya which includes building a framework of thinking that all halaaqaat must have from the point of view of the teacher and the student whether a parent child situation, personal development and even in Islamic movements. I will be addressing some of the attitudes to knowledge and actions in relation to the training that Musa (as) received.

How do you set a trend? Rasoolullah (saw) started with an idea, a set of beliefs and a vision. This idea became a reality and this vision manifested itself as the establishment of Islam in its entirety when Allah (swt) revealed the following verses: …This day I have perfected for you your deen and completed my favour upon you and chosen for you Islam as a deen… Today we have a situation whereby our ideas are murky, our beliefs are strong but our vision is blurry. Some seem to think that what we once had is far too hard to achieve once again. We do this even though we are very quick to catch on with the latest material trends in the West – take, for example, all the hype with the new iphone. However, the Muslims have started to rise. Alhamdulillah, the Muslims have started to wake up. There is a trend that is catching on quickly all around the world among Muslims. One has to ask…Are you following this trend that is the call for the establishment of Islam in its entirety?

Do you give Dawah? This session explains how Allah (?) prepared his Prophet Musa to internalise the call of Islam and then how to carry it to the most evil tyrant of all time. This Tafsir of Surah Taha is essential learning for dawa carriers who engage in political and intellectual struggle while also a reminder for this who have not yet kindled the desire to take part in one of the greatest of Ibadah of the Prophets and that is to carry the dawa to establish Islam.
