Youth Enact Their Role Models

Assalamu Alaikum, no need to write anything, just watch, listen and enjoy. Hilarious !!

Response from Shaykh Babikr Ahmed Babikr

Dear brothers and sisters, it appears that we have a response from Shaykh Babikr Ahmed Babikr’s brother in law in regards to him being an advisor to the Quilliam Foundation. It is quite apparent that these phonies have misappropriated his name and names of others for their spurious agenda. Anyways, below is the comment of the brother. We hope that he will return to us with the news that the Shaykh spoke to QF and will remove his name immediately.

A Call to Shaykh Babikr Ahmed Babikr to dissociate himself from the Quilliam Foundation

I do not know Shaykh Babikr Ahmed Babikr personally nor have I attended any of his gatherings of knowledge. The only acquaintance I have with him is hearing good things about the Shaykh from certain brothers; they informed me that he is a man of knowledge and Taqwa, so to read his name as one of the advisors of the notorious Quilliam foundation was a shocking surprise, to say the least.

The Transferable Egos of Ed Husain, Maajid Nawaz and Ziauddin Sardar

I had decided some time ago that it would be a waste of time to devote a whole JumahPulse to the antics of Ed Husain and his band of merry clappers. They were, themselves, doing a fine job of exposing their abhorrence for Islam and their admiration for those who hated Muslims.

Ed had gone so far as to characterise actions of the Prophet Muhammad (Sallalallahu alaihi wa sallam) as “barbaric” – which, of course, according to the consensus of mainstream Islamic opinion, renders one outside the fold of Islam.

The ‘Islamist’ Quilliam Foundation: The Beast Is Coming Out

Telling them What they want to hear:

The Quilliam Foundation is more than just about tackling terrorism, it is a whole broad trajectory of political views that fit into issues of community relations, integration and lifestyle choices. It is true that these different aspects may interrelate with each other, but there must be some evidence to correlate them, otherwise it is mere speculation and hearsay, based on prior prejudice or ideological commitments. Instead of demonstrating their link (how is wearing a jilbab or a kufi linked to terrorism?), the document makes blanket statements. Quilliam Foundation is more than a counter-extremist think-tank and holds, politically, right-wing (and some elements of the liberal left) views on integration, immigration and multiculturalism. For example, it recommends the interference in the lives of citizens. In the document “Pulling Together to Defeat Terror”, we read:

Ed Hussain the liability that Maajid cannot do without

I just came across Maajid’s article, where he defends himself against a critical article written by Zia Sardar. Much of the stuff he has written has been mentioned before in his interview on Newsnight. However, what has now come about is how much Sir Edward Husain has become a liability to Maajid, where his mad views hang over him to haunt him. Maajid’s organization will never takeoff and is cursed from the very beginning because of his association with Ed. Anyway, I found a comment left by a user called ‘gambit57′ which mentions the exact same points I had in mind, so I thought I would post the comment below:

Ziauddin Sardar on Sidi Eddy & the Quilliam Foundation

Although I would vehemently disagree with many of Ziauddin Sardar’s views on Islam and religion, however, I am in congruence with him on his conclusion of the infamous Quilliam Foundation. Indeed, how is it that uneducated [in religion] ex-extremists or radicals be in a position to eradicate extremism. Sardar is correct when he says ‘Just because you have been an inmate of a mental hospital does not mean you are an expert in clinical psychology’.

The ‘Islamist’ Shaykh Ali Goma on Jihad & Martyrdom Operations

Today, Tuesday April 22^nd, 2008, is an historic day, an historic moment, for today we shall remember when former Muslim radical extremists formed a coalition to eradicate extremism amongst the Muslims living in the U.K. Sir Eddy and Nawaz [MBE, sorry not sir yet!], two ‘giants’ amidst the ‘secular Muslim radicals’ will intellectually obliterate the ‘islamists’ ideology of the majority of Muslims residing in the U.K.

The ‘Islamist’ Shaikh Abdullah Bin Bayyah [supposed Quilliam Foundation's advisor] On Political Participation In The West

Shaikh Abdullah al-Mahfoudh Bin Bayyah, in a press statement emphasized that the participation of Muslims who reside in the West in the political systems of their countries of residence whether it be in the form of participating in elections or running for office does not indicate in any form it maybe giving allegiance to unbelief.

Maritn Bright, The new Statesman & Ed’s Quilliam Foundation: Call to Imams Hamza Yusuf & Zaid Shakir [Zaytuna Institute] to dissociate themselves from Sidi Eddy

Apparently a certain tabloid exposition has caught the attention of the Observer Newspaper — the pro-war liberal paper (the direction of its editorials), that also publishes Nick Cohen and Martin Bright. Anyway, they have published a small piece, with a very friendly Quilliam Foundation headline — ‘Muslim moderates ‘face hate campaign”. Nothing like making a martyr out of Ed. I don’t believe a word that comes out of Ed’s mouth. Also, this is not the first time they published a martyr whinge by Ed.

Sidi Eddy & the Quilliam Foundation: Revival of the Batiniyat methodology

Interesting thought!

Imam Ghazzali is well known in history for his passionate defense of Islam against heretical innovations. I just so happened to be reading this book

المستظهري: فضائح الباطنية وفضائل المستظهرية

Infamies of the Esoterics [Ismaili Shia'] and the Renown of the Exoterics

Shaykh Bin Bayyah [h] & Rashad Ali’s [Quilliam foundation] distortions

It seems that Rashad has few friends. He loved Noddy, poor Rashad, so much so that he invented an invisible friend for Nahid Khan (Rashad) to talk with. In an amazing turn of events, Noddy agreed with everything that Nahid said. “Noddy seems to have grasped what I am saying clearly.” said Nahid. I think it is apt that his invisible friend is called Noddy because I quote from Wikipedia: “Noddy got his name because his head is on a spring and when he gets excited his head cannot stop nodding”

Hujjatul Islam Imam Ghazzali & his relevance today

Why Ghazzali Matters.

“Ghazalian experience” refers to a drastic turn one makes in life that seems incomprehensible—especially to popular culture—when one utterly discards what others would traffic their souls for. Theologian, jurist, and sage, Abu Hamid al-Ghazali matters today, after nearly a thousand years, because of his scholarship but also because of his crisis. Ghazali had been well-established as the premier scholar in law and theology, occupying the most-coveted seat of academia, at the Nizamiyya University in Baghdad. He had veneration, prestige, status, wealth, and a great mind. He was the monarch of intellectuals.
