Tall and handsome, he was standing among his staff and security officers, on the
first page of all prominent dailies. He was looking heads and shoulders above
them. Dr. Abdul Qadeeer Khan is a amiable person. But he has been pushed to the
wall. His health is also worrying him. Therefore he came very forcefully on the
villain who was pushing him to the wall. When a journalist asked him as to why
he disclosed the story of exchanging nuclear secrets with North Korea for
missile technology. " Ask this from Pervaiz Musharraf who has published it in
his book.", he retorted bluntly.

I am fond of reading books. But Musharraf's book was lying since many weeks and
I did not feel like reading it. He has become so hated a figure that people even
do not want to listen his name, what to speak of reading his book. But after Dr.
Saheb's reference, I went through the relevant Chapter and also glanced through
Kargil conflict.

He has tried to lay blame on Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan for exchange of nuclear
technology with missile technology of North Korea and proliferation of atomic
weaponary in Iran and Libya. Even a child will tell...

I ask all authorities everywhere, forget about persecuting those who
choose to have loving consensual incest. It's not abuse! Instead, stop
real abuse like this:

A Georgia father of Pakistani descent allegedly strangled his 25-year-

a man she had not seen in months, according to police in Clayton
County, Ga.

Chaudhry Rashid, 56, was scheduled to be arraigned today on a murder
charge. Rashid was arrested early Sunday morning at his family's house

  1971 - A Gain For Bangladeshis, A Grave Loss For Pakistanis         


Author: nkdatta2465
Date: Jul 7, 2008 10:40

[The creation of Bangladesh may have been better for Muslim Bengalis
but it has deprived Pakistan of potent democratic forces. The gap left
by the absence of such forces cannot be filled by anyone else]

In 1971 it was not the Bengalis but almost the entire Punjabi
population, along with the Urdu-speaking population of Sindh, who
wanted ‘Bengal’. A few tiny progressive groups, like the Young Peoples
Front, some pro-Soviet intellectuals and a handful of writers and
elements of Amador Kinas Party were raising stifled voices. However,
these feeble voices were drowned in the thunder of Bhutto’s and other
patriots’ rhetoric. Alas, in the Bengalis we lost the best protectors
of democracy in Pakistan and our best allies even in the Punjab
University.

  Islam Is The Only Truly Universal Religion

Islam Is The Only Truly Universal Religion

Islam is the religion taught in its fundamentals by all the prophets. It is
the religion which the first human being was instructed to follow. It is the
religion of Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad and all other prophets
(peace be upon them all) throughout the existence of human beings.

From the world view of Islam, most of the world's major religions originated
in the pure religion of Islam itself and only through the teachings being
lost, forgotten or wilfully corrupted have these...

Projecting Islam Image in US

IslamOnline.net & Newspapers

CAIRO - Disturbed by rising anti-Islam sentiments since the 9/11 attacks,
Samina Ahmed has started a mission to educate Americans about Islam and
clear misconceptions about the faith.

"(People) a lot of times have so many questions," Ahmed told the Springfield
News-Sun newspaper on Monday, July 7.

"And I make them comfortable enough so they can ask them."

Since 9/11, Ahmed, 35, has been holding a seminar twice a year to educate
people about the teachings of Islam.

This Thursday, the Pakistani-born will hold her seminar "Practicing Islam in
Clark County" at the Public Library to discuss the faith as a whole.

She will also distribute free English translation of the Noble Qur'an to
attendees.

In previous seminars, Ahmed discussed many Islamic issues such as fasting
and Zakah (alms giving).

Ahmed, who migrated with her parents to Canada when she was 5 and later to
the US at the age of 17, says Americans are now more receptive than ever to
know more about Islam.

  Islam is the efficient cure for the world from the horrible disease of Capitalism         


Author: Muslim With Mission

Islam is the efficient cure for the world from the horrible disease of
Capitalism

Everybody today is in crucial need of Islam, which is completely different
from Capitalism:

Islam is based on worshipping Allah. That is where man is given his due
honor and respect. Islam distances people from worshipping their benefits
and desires, which leads to the disregard and humiliation of man, and makes
it easy for certain people to take advantage of him claiming the right to do
so and putting themselves above everybody else. We recall the saying of
Ribi' bin 'Amer when he was asked by Kisra, the king of the Persians:" What
is it that brought you?" He answered: "We came to get people out of the
worship of people into the worship of the Lord of people, and out of the
narrowness of this life into the wideness of this life and the hereafter,
and out of the injustice of religions into the justice of Islam."

Islam is based on the call to belief in Allah, the creator, and ruling by
his law (Shari'ah) under which nobody is oppressed.

Jihad is established to prevent any state or authority from interrupting the
free choice of faith by the non-muslims, and to implement the just Islamic
system on them. Islam makes territories where the...
