'Irbad bin Sariyah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
One day Messenger of Allah (PBUH) delivered us a very
eloquent Khutbah on account of which eyes shed tears and
hearts were full of tears. A man said: "O Prophet of Allah,
this is as if it were a parting advice. So advise us". He
(PBUH) said,
"I admonish you to fear Allah, to listen and obey even if an
Abyssinian slave is appointed as your leader. Because
whosoever among you shall live after me, will see much
discord. So hold fast to my Sunnah and the examples of the
Rightly-Guided Caliphs who will come after me. Adhere to
them and hold to it fast. Beware of new things (in Deen)
because every Bid'ah is a misguidance".[Abu Dawud and
At-Tirmidhi].

Shaker Smiles: He Was in Gtmo for 14 Years Without Charge.
by Sis. Karin Friedemann [Boston]
The Obama administration finally yielded to a lengthy
campaign to secure the British resident Shaker Aamed's
release, after Guantanamo journalist Andy Worthington wrote
an open letter to President Obama for Independence Day,
which was signed by nearly a hundred celebrities, including
Roger Waters, Sting, Patrick Stewart and London's Mayor
Boris Johnson.
As a result, President Obama discussed the decision to move
Aamer, whose case has become a cause celebre among rights
groups in Britain, with Prime Minister David Cameron in a
phone call. On November 11, 2015, a beautiful photo and
statement from the brother was released by friends.
"I can't tell you how much I want to speak to all of you and
stand with all of you, carrying on the struggle for justice
for everybody who has been oppressed and needs our help. If
there is one thing we can do to save the whole world it is
to fight for justice. We will work hard together to close
Guantánamo and every unlawful facility run by any government
worldwide. Justice has no colour or religion or race.
"I promise all of you good people — those whose names
I know, and those whose names I do not know — that my
heart and my spirit feel your thoughts of justice. I care
for you all.
Clive Stafford Smith predicted in the Guardian last
September that when Shaker Aamer is free from Guantanamo,
the slurs will start.
"My maternal grandmother once gave me some advice that has
never left me: when someone does you wrong, bizarrely, they
will invariably hate you for it. This stems from a very
human desire not to admit mistakes. Therefore if you want to
salvage a relationship with the person who wronged you, you
must go out of your way to be kind to them."
Shaker Aamer, the last British resident in Guantánamo Bay
has been done a terrible wrong - held for almost 14
years without charges, tortured over and over. He has never
met his youngest son Faris, who was born on the very day he
arrived in the notorious US military base.
"And why has he been held so long? Because not only was
Aamer a victim of abuse but he also witnessed the torture of
others, most catastrophically Ibn Sheikh al Libi, who
"confessed" falsely that al-Qaida was in league with Saddam
Hussein on weapons of mass destruction. This was repeated by
President George W Bush himself as a reason to go to war in
Iraq - so here we are, tens of thousands of dead
people later, and we know it was false. Al Libi merely told
his torturers what they wanted to hear, to try to end the
pain," writes Smith.
There is one matter that is beyond all doubt: The US
military and the UK intelligence services will start
briefing against Aamer. They will do this because they know
they have done him wrong, and they hate him for it. They
feel a very human urge to prove that they were justified
and, in their distorted morality, that can only be true if
he is a very, very bad man indeed. They always do this.
"In Aamer's case, the defamation has already begun. The
moment the 30-day notice was given, Texas Congressman Mac
Thornberry sent a statement to the Washington Post that
Aamer was far too dangerous to be released -
apparently forever," reports Worthington.
You do not publish devastating rumours about a person who
has no way to defend himself, without checking and
double-checking your source - even when it concerns a
powerless person held incommunicado for more than a decade,
like Aamer.
"Those who wish to prove that they were right to indulge in
a spot of torture are very sad and misguided people."

Islamic State's Three Strikes: Russia, Hizbullah and France.
Is there a Way to Peace when bombing by Both Superpowers is not Working?
Let the western allies affirm that they will not strike civilians.
Research by New Trend observers
[Disclaimer: New Trend and Jamaat al-Muslimeen are not

editor]
Analysts now say they are convinced that the Russian
airliner was brought down by a bomb, a claim the Egyptian
branch of the Islamic State had stated right from the
beginning. It appears that there were a hundred thousand or
more European tourists at Sharm al-Shaikh when the plane
went down. The British were the first to catch communication
by the attackers and immediately suspended their flights to
the Egyptian luxury resort.
Then came the attack on the Hizbullah stronghold in Beirut,
again with heavy casualties. It was a tremendous blow and
showed the ability of the Islamic State [IS] to infiltrate
areas which have the highest Shi'ite security levels. Two of
the attackers were Palestinians, the third Syrian.
Then on Friday, November 13, , we had the attack on Paris
with 132 fatalities, more than 352 injured, 99 serious.
[CNN]
Causes:
The western powers, including USA, Russia, France,
Australia and their local allies, Bashar Assad, Iran,
Hizbullah, General Sissi of Egypt, the rulers of Saudi
Arabia, UAE, Jordan have expressed their determination to
destroy the Caliphate led by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi
al-Hussaini al-Quraishi. They have repeatedly tried to kill
him and those with him.
The western powers, including France, have been bombing
Raqqa and other cities under the aegis of the Caliphate. The
"coalition," as they call themselves. stated that they have
killed more than 5,000 supporters of the Caliphate over a
year; SOHR says these included women and children. Bashar
Assad, with ongoing Iranian and Russian re-supply, has been
bombing the Islamic State and all towns held by Islamic
groups. America has not tried to stop them. The suburbs of
Damascus, held by Islamic groups, have been reduced to
rubble as have, largely, Aleppo and Homs and Hama.
USA and the coalition are squeezing IS in the northeast
of Syria and in parts of Iraq with the help of Communist
groups of Kurds, including YPG and Peshmarga. They openly
state that they will use military force to capture Mosul in
Iraq and the capital Raqqa itself in Syria. They destroyed
the city of Kobani on the Turkish border to help YPG capture
it, killing more than one thousand supporters of IS,
including teachers and reciters of the Qur'an.
France and the western powers see the Islamic State as a
strategic threat because IS demolished the Sykes-Picot
boundary. It was a historic step by a Frenchman, Picot, and
an Englishman, Sykes, to divide the Arab Muslims. This was
also done in Palestine and in Kashmir by the West.
France is opposing and trying to crush Islamic movements
in Africa. The French military actions are supported by the
US and Israel. The US has sent special forces to organize
anti-Islamic governments in Nigeria and Cameroon to fight
Boko Haram. France owns the uranium wealth of Niger. Its
security forces are funded by the westernized regime in Cote
d'voire. France militarily invaded Mali to crush the Islamic
takeover.
France bombed Libya methodically and on a massive scale
to make sure the advanced infrastructure of Libya would not
fall into the hands of Islamic groups who were rapidly
putting an end to the Gaddafi regime.
For Muslims across the globe, Charlie Hebdo insulted the
Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be on him.
When enraged Muslims attacked Charlie Hebdo, all of France
declared solid support for those who insulted the Prophet,
pbuh, in the name of freedom of expression. The French did
not care that insulting the Prophet, pbuh, is a declaration
of war on Islam.
ADVICE to US Muslims.
We urge US Muslims to speak out openly and strongly against
Pamela Geller, Spencer and others who have insulted the
Prophet, pbuh.
There is no need to mourn those who have been killed in that
huge retaliatory attack by 7 [or 8] mujahideen in Paris.
Have non-Muslims mourned men, women and children in GAZA
killed by Israel in three invasions ? Or Muslims killed in
Iraq and Afghanistan?
We are not involved in what happened in Paris. If we start
behaving like the traitors in CAIR, we will be constantly
mourning non-Muslims while Muslims killed by occupiers are
never mourned here.
Tell Christians, do unto others as you would have them do
unto you. We are not harming anyone; why should we be
apologizing for what others have done.
Remain peaceful and always work within the limits of the law
to educate Americans, many of whom are themselves victims of
the power structure manipulated by the Zionists.

Who is Fethullah Gulen: Movement Based in America, Using
"religion" to Overthrow Erdogan Government in Turkey.
Opposed anti-israel Steps: Supported Execution of Islamic
Leaders in Bangladesh.
Most Important Document on anti-Islam Intrigues.
Compiled by Prof. Suleyman Kurter
Who is Fetullah Gulen?
Born in Erzurum in 1941
Began religious career as Imam delivering Waz /Beyan in
1966
Used the Nursi movement in 1970's to gain fame, power and
monetary wealth
He deviated from Said Nursi's teachings
Started to develop his own movement and network, and
supported by the Kemalist Military and Government.
Supported the 1980 Coup of General Kenan Evren, in return
the military government financed his networks' newspaper,
ZAMAN, which is the largest circulated periodical in
Turkey
Met with the late Pope John Paul II in 1998 and developed
Dialogue for Tolerance and Alliance with Catholics.
Started Hizmet (service) movement, cooperating with
Catholic churches and Zionist Forces
He misrepresented his group to Turkish businessmen to
solicit donations for his schools around the world where he
claimed Turkish language and culture would be taught to the
world.
Established an estimated over than three thousand
schools in the world with the help of the Pope and Zionist
businessmen from Turkey especially in Muslim Countries to
help secular leaders and make money.
Hizmet connected with Israel and Zionist lobby inside
the United States and established 129 schools in the USA
with an estimated yearly income over than 400 million
Developed a network of insiders who are loyal to his
network inside the entire Turkish systems (Education,
Judicial, Police and Legislative) but was unsuccessful in
entry to Turkish Military.
Supported Tayyip Erdogan government (AKP) hoping that he
could capture the party and hoping to attain more control in
different levels in the Turkish government.
Conflict began between Tayyip Erdogan and Fetullah Gulen
over the Anti Israeli Stance of the Erdogan Government; some
think that Gulen was told by the Zionist to control
Erdogan's messages against Israel. He established schools in
Pakistan and Bangladesh to help the governments against
Islamic Movements. Especially Bangladesh donated huge
territory for their activities. In Turkey his media
supported capital punishment of the Jamaati Islami leaders
contrary to President Gul and Erdogan. Both Gul and Erdogan
were pressuring Bangladesh Government not to go through with
capital punishment. Once again Gulen's Media were accusing
the Erdogan Government of interfering with the internal
matters of Bangladesh.
Erdogan supports Gaza and gave symbolic criticism to
Israel. However, his criticism mobilized huge support from
Islamic oriented youth and Israel became very unhappy with
Erdogan's stance. Israel pressured Gulen to stop Erdogan if
he did not stop Gulen will be exposed by using pressure
tactics with the Sixty Minutes TV program and The New York
Times.
Gulen tried to change the interpretations of Ayats and
Hadith issuing statements to Zionists gathering in New York
that he misunderstood the Ayats in regard to Jews and
Christians. They can go to heaven, and used Thomas Michel
(one time pope's secretary) taking him to Turkey and other
countries. Michel started writing and lecturing that the
Qur'an may have misunderstood the trinity and this
misunderstanding was entered into the Qur'an from illiterate
Bedouin Arabs. Erdogan's education was from Imam Hatip
(religious schools). He was very unhappy with
Gulen's distortion of Islam. It made the AKP base and
Erdogan unhappy and Erdogan decided to put pressure on
Gulen. Meantime Gulen was using his loyalist police force to
listen to and record Erdogan's activities, even personal
activities, as well as they listened to President Gul and
the Chief of Military staff. Erdogan claims that Gulen was
reporting Turkish intelligence information to Israeli
Intelligence and Western Media.
Erdogan realized that Fetullah Gulen's involvement would
eventually lead to an overthrow of his government
Fetullah Gulen mobilized his deep state networks against
Erdogan like the 2013 Gezi Park demonstrations, as well as
subsequent civil unrest in Turkey, but both were
unsuccessful.
The overturn movement did not work because Gulen exposed
himself as a religious fraud by stating that Christians and
Jews can go to heaven and then he developed anti-Arab
feelings amongst his followers. He was worried more about
Israeli children yet he did not make a single statement
about the Palestinian children who have suffered
immensely.
He declared that the Mavi Marmara victims should have
gotten permission from Israel. These statements made him
very unpopular outside his group. Mavi Marmara was attacked
by Israel in international waters.
He bugged the telephones of his opponents using his
network inside the police forces.
Erdogan decided to challenge the network and eradicate
their presence in all facets.
While combating this group, the Erdogan government
discovered that any opposition to Gulen's twisted religious
thinking would be brought up on trumped charges and false
evidence by his police followers and convicted by his
followers' judges. Any religious figure who disapproved of
his ideas on the Qur'an and Hadith, his forces would develop
trumped charges that either they are Taliban or made montage
videos showing that they are in elicit relations. Edgogan
decided to deal with him.
Erdogan was successful in removing most of the Gulen
Network insiders from most of the government and civil
service.
Turkish Government has taken the extraordinary step to
cancel Gulen's passport and refer him to Interpol for
extradition
Zionist groups are supporting Gulen as his network has
been invaluable in getting confidential information to
Zionist groups and foreign governments.
Note: Income from the Network of schools and business
and donations, income estimates state that the overall
organization has a net worth of over 30 billion dollars.
Most of all his business ventures (Banks, Newspapers, TV
stations) are now under intense scrutiny by Turkish
authorities and have seen a collapse of their worth.
Turkey beside cancelling his Green passport (With this
passport one can go without visa to many countries) and the
court decided to extradition him from the USA. Let us see
how Zionists are going to play their part to save him.

Continuing Police Misbehavior is leading to Defiance by Black Youth.
by Sis. Aisha [Jamaat al-Muslimeen]
New York City - Mayor Bill de Blasio, affectionately called
"One-Term" Mayor de Blasio, was "fuming" this week over
criticism of the police department made by Judge Nunez. This
is the same judge who sentenced Tyrone Howard to a drug
treatment program who allegedly killed Officer Randolph
Holder. The NYPD believes that he should have been sent to
jail.
Mayor De Blasio demanded an apology on behalf of Police
Commissioner William Bratton, the same William Bratton who
did very little to prevent NYPD officers from turning their
backs on the Mayor as he walked passed them to visit injured
officers in the hospital or at officer funerals. Mayor de
Blasio has since learned his "place" as Mayor with relation
to the NYPD and that is to be their lap dog.
Quicker Arrests and Convictions of Black Criminal Officers
Than White Ones
In Louisiana, two officers of African-descent were arrested
in the killing of a six year old Jeremy David Mardis. His
father, Chris Few, was severely injured and is in intensive
care. Officers Derrick Stafford and Norris Greenhouse Jr
were two of four deputy marshals chasing Chris Few in his
vehicle. Since none of the four officers are speaking to
anyone no one is sure why they were in pursuit of Mr. Few.
However, earlier articles indicated that it may have been to
serve a warrant for a minor infraction.
Question: Why does any serving of warrants by U.S. Marshals
have to be fatal?
This is what happened in Imam Jamil Al-Amin's case! He was
standing with a another younger brother in discussion when
they were both approached by US. Marshals in a very
threatening manner. Now, Imam Jamil was not the shooter but,
having read a few instances involving marshals killing the
very people whom they are serving a warrant to, I am very
suspicious of marshals.
Question: Why are so few, if at all any, White criminal cops
arrested AND convicted?
Twelve year old Tamir Rice's family is still looking for
justice. What is taking this prosecutor so long? All over
America, prosecutors have been openly defiant in refusing to
arrest and charge White officers with any crimes. It is
happening in cases even where there is video showing a
police crime occurring! As usual, with this recent wave of
arrests of Black and White officers, we will have to wait
and see if any of these cases will result in any
convictions.
Of course, the H.N.I.C (Head Negro in Charge) of the White
House does nothing but, sit on his perch basking in the
glory that being President of the United States has brought
him. He has done nothing to rid law enforcement of
corruption nor the fact that Israeli Mayor Rahm Emanuel has
turned his "beloved" Chicago into Occupied Palestine
equipped with secret prisons!
There is a revolution brewing in this country and it is
precipitated by police corruption, for one. The youth, in
particular, are mobilizing and we need to support them more
than ever. Al-humdulillah, they are undeterred.

Hindu Indian Doctor's Fake Data Messed up Cancer Research. [Editor NT]
Medscape Medical News> Oncology
Feds (Finally) Say that Researcher Faked Data
Nick Mulcahy
Dr. Potti and Duke University Sued Over Faulty Research'Data
Gone Wrong': Unreproducible Cancer Genomics Studies
Gene-Guided Chemotherapy Research Questioned as 3 NCI Trials
Are Halted
After a lengthy investigation, the US Office of Research
Integrity (ORI) has found that Anil Potti, MD, a former Duke
University cancer researcher, "engaged in research
misconduct" in work supported by various federal grants.
The judgment is the "final action" in the case, according to
an ORI report published online today in the Federal
Register.
The ORI says that Dr Potti falsified research data in
published papers, in a submitted manuscript, in a grant
application, and in "the research record."
The disgraced researcher generated a lot of news coverage
along the way because his fraud was executed in a grand
manner, with fake data in high-profile studies in medicine's
biggest and best journals. His phony research was highly
influential and led to the initiation of several large
clinical trials sponsored by the National Cancer Institute,
which were halted when questions about the reproducibility
of the results were raised, as reported by Medscape Medical
News.
Dr Potti also had a flair for the dramatic, claiming to be a
Rhodes Scholar and the winner of various research awards;
these later turned out to be unsubstantiated.
Notably, Dr Potti has not admitted to the federal
investigators that he committed fraud.
Instead, he entered into a "voluntary settlement agreement
and "neither admits nor denies ORI's findings of research
misconduct," according to the ORI.
The ORI report suggests that the settlement was done for the
sake of expedience: "The settlement is not an admission of
liability on the part of the Respondent [Dr Potti]. The
parties entered into the Agreement to conclude this matter
without further expenditure of time, finances, or other
resources."
Among the misconduct findings, the ORI concluded that false
data were reported on the following subjects:
a predictor of thrombotic phenotypes (Blood.
2006107:1391-1396)
a predictor of lung cancer relapse (N Engl J Med. 2006;
355:570-580)
a predictor of the response to the chemotherapeutic drugs
topotecan and docetaxel (Nat Med. 2006;12:1294-1300)
a predictor of the response to the chemotherapeutic drug
cisplatin (J Clinical Oncol.2007;25:4350-4357)
a predictor of the response to the combination of the
chemotherapeutic drugs fluorouracil, epirubicin, and
cyclophosphamide, or docetaxel, epirubicin, and docetaxel
(Lancet Oncol.2007;8:1071-1078)
a predictor of breast cancer relapse (JAMA.
2008;299:1574-1587)
a predictor for the response to the chemotherapeutic drugs
paclitaxel, 5-fluouracil, adriamycin, and cyclophosphamide
(PLoS One. 2008;3:e1908)
a predictor of colon cancer recurrence (Proc Natl Acad Sci U
S A. 2008;105:19432-19437)
a predictor of the response to the chemotherapeutic drug
cisplatin (Clin Cancer Res. 2009;15:7553-7561)
All these studies have now been retracted.
The agreement between the ORI and Dr Potti stipulates, among
other things, that if Dr Potti "obtains employment in a
research position in which he receives or applies" for US
Public Health Service grant support in the next 5 years, he
will have his research supervised for a period of 5
subsequent years.
Dr Potti has recently been working at a cancer center in
Grand Forks, North Dakota, according to a report in
Retraction Watch.
The prolonged scandal involving Dr Potti could have been
stopped earlier in its course, according to a report in the
Cancer Letter earlier this year. A Duke medical student
acted as a whistle-blower and warned university officials
about Dr Potti's misconduct in 2008, but the student,
Bradford Perez, was effectively silenced by school officials
and researchers.
