The Quilliam Foundation, the think tank devoted to promoting harmony in West/Islam relations, is facing the withdrawal of its financial backers.
This part II of the original article that was written in response to this wretched vision of the Quilliam Foundation! [For part one click Here.]
They punished them for nothing but that they believed in Allah, the All-Mighty, the Worthy of All Praise
The Hadith:

We were made aware of Usama’s reply from multiple sources, and it is with great sadness we realised that he did not engage in any of the issues raised. It can be imagined from his response that perhaps he wrote it while angry, and did not reflect carefully over what was written within. Rather than reflecting on the message, the attention seemed to be on the offence caused by those whom we would like to think – though we do not know them – had the best intentions in mind in delivering it.
”Islam is a comprehensive system dealing with all spheres of life; it is a state and a religion, or government and a nation; it is a morality and power, or mercy and justice; it is a culture and a law or knowledge and jurisprudence; it is material and wealth, or gain and prosperity; it is Jihad and a call, or army and a cause and finally, it is true belief and worship”

terrorism is seen as a form of empowerment
I suggested yesterday that the reasons for the instigation of terrorism and radicalisation amongst people are mainly due to savage foreign policies, and economic and social instability.
