Abusive Attacks on the Prophet, pbuh.
Ilham Omar [Somali origin], who recently won elections to
the U.S. Congress, has started criticizing Israel. In
response, the Tea Party has published abusive and
fabfricated attacks on the Prophet Muhammad, pbuh, and on
Islam in general, and on Ilham in particular.
Meanwhile, in occupied Palestine, young men with handknives
and other small weapons, are attacking Israeli soldiers and
have killed two of them and wounded eleven. The attackers
were also killed and their family homes blown up by the
Israelis.

Nigerian Women in Information & Communication Technology
by: Kabir Oyemomi
The Federation of Muslim Women's Association in Nigeria
(FOMWAN), Ogun State chapter, has trained 165 Muslim youths
across the state on advantages and disadvantages of
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the 21st
century.
FOMWAN, which organized a five-day youth camp at Ijebu
Muslim College, Ijebu-ode, with the theme "IMPACT OF ICT ON
MUSLIM YOUTHS Of 21st CENTURY" , said the program was aimed
at training Muslim undergraduates against the evils of
fraudulent activities on the internet and other
cybercrimes.
According to the Nigerian Tribune, the Ameerah of the
organization in the state,Alhaja Kudirat Rabiu said that it
became imperative for the Muslim body to educate Muslim
undergraduates considering the high rate of cybercrimes in
the country.
Rabiu implored all Muslim youths to improve the communities
and shy away from crimes that could destroy their future.
She was quoted to have said " the essence of the youth camp
is to bring Muslim youths together and teach them the way of
God. We are training them so that they can know the positive
use of ICT and shun the negative way thereto.
" We know how youths now engage in cybercrimes and we did
not want Muslim youths to do same. That is why it became
imperative to organize such events to help educate
them."
Nigerian youths have perpetrated unimaginable evils aided by
opportunities of internet in the past years, ranging from
internet fraud, money rituals of all sorts, hate speech etc.
It is worth mentioning, if sadly, that majority of these
crimes are committed by youths that go with Muslim names.
Invitation to Think
India and Bangla Hindus are the main Obstacle to Unity of
Pakistan and Bangladesh.
Remembering Abdul Qadir [Shaheed.]
[Research by Dr. Kaukab Siddique who has visited Bangladesh
several times in depth from Dhaka to Pabna to Comilla to
Chittagong to Cox's Bazaar and has many friends in
Bangladesh.]
Few people know that Prime Minister Modi of India admitted
during his visit to Bangladesh last year that India played
the key role in the break up of Pakistan.
The propaganda about Pakistani atrocities has been like a
flood of lies. Hence few people know that the statistics
about atrocities in Bangladesh came from a Jewish Zionist
woman living in New York who had never been to East
Pakistan, based on generalizations and rumors from Christian
missionaries and Hindu propagandists.
The pro-India rulers in Dhaka had one serious problem:
Bengalis who SUPPORTED Pakistan. Jamaate Islami was rising
again, so suddenly, 40 YEARS after the break up, the Dhaka
clique of pro-India rulers suddenly started show trials of
Bengali Muslims who supported Pakistan.
[Readers may not know that the regime has even imprisoned
the Bengali nationalist woman leader of the opposition, thus
suppressing all viable opposition. ]
Here we look at one of the most pious and innocent Bengali
Islamic leaders who was executed by the pro-India clique in
Dhaka.
This is the anniversary of the execution of Bengali Islamic
leader Abdul Qadir.
Abdul Qadir was a man of peace. Never picked up a weapon.
Never taught violence.
His "crime" is that he supported a united Pakistan and being
a Bengali he undermined the Hindu idea that Bangladesh
should separate from Pakistan.
There was no Bangladesh at that time, so to claim that he
committed crimes against Bangladesh is absurd.
The regime in Dhaka has been trumpeting stories of millions
killed and hundreds of thousands of Bengali women raped.
THERE HAS BEEN NO SURVEY which would make such figures
legitimate.
The propaganda statistics have been borrowed by the
regime, WORD FOR WORD, from a book published by a Zionist
Jewish woman from Brooklyn, New York, named Brownmiller.
The Dhaka regime is under direct Indian influence and is
supported by the US which has signalled it to hold fake
"elections."
Bangladesh is a Muslim country but most of the Muslims are
conservative and non-political under the influence of
Tablighi Jamaat. The Indian puppet Hasina Wajed supports
Tablighi Jamaat which holds the biggest religious assemblies
in Bangladesh. The pro-Hindu regime knows that by joining
Tablighi Jamaat, Muslims become totally ineffective
politically and are cut off from jihad concepts.
By contrast, the 10 million Hindus living in Bangladesh are
well organized and have active links with Calcutta in
India. The border of Bangladesh with India is kept open so
that Bangla raw materials are openly smuggled to Calcutta,
manufactured there into marketable products and then sold
back in Bangladesh. It is classic capitalist
exploitation.
Jamaate Islami and Hefajate Islam are peaceful organizations
which preach against violence. Many young people have joined
Jamaate Islami and they hold demonstration to oppose
oppression of Abdul Qadir, Ghulam Azam and other Jamaate
Islami leaders.
In turn the police shoots back and kills protestors. Several
hundred young Islamic protestors have been killed. Way back
several hundred unarmed Hefajate Islam members were killed
in ONE NIGHT by security forces after they slept in a mosque
after day long demonstrations in central Dhaka.
The Hindus and secularized Muslims have been aroused to
fever pitch by the regime's daily propaganda that several
million Bengalis were killed and hundreds of thousands of
women were raped by the Pakistani army and its Bengali
Jamaate Islami "collaborators." The propaganda touches the
emotional masses and they are unable to counter it.
The state murder of Abdul Qadir could mean that Bengali
Muslims will have to re-assess their situation under
semi-Hindu rule. India, Israel and the US are the main
gainers in this atrocious execution of Abdul Qadir, a man of
God and a man of peace.

Pakistani Leaders Debunk US claim of Religious Intolerance.
by Qaiser Sharif
LAHORE, Dec. 12; Ameer, Jamaat e Islami, Pakistan, Senator
Sirajul Haq, has condemned the US decision placing Pakistan
on Black List on the charge of lack of religious freedom and
has termed it the worst example of US bias and hostility
towards this country.
Strongly reacting to the US move, the JI chief said that
while the minorities in Pakistan enjoyed constitutional
freedom to practice their religion, the Muslims in America
and European counties were being denied religious rights and
the US was patronizing anti Muslim activities all over the
world.
Sirajul Haq said that the US had been the greatest hurdle in
the solution of the Palestine and Kashmir issues although
the Amnesty International and the Human Right bodies in
their reports had admitted the genocide of the Muslims in
these areas.
He said that even in the US, Muslim children and innocent
women were being maltreated and tortured on the basis of
religious bias. Muslims ladies were being publicly attacked
and ridiculed and their veils and scarves were being removed
by force but no action was taken against the offenders.
Meanwhile, the JI chief has condemned the attitude of the
government and the opposition members in the National
Assembly disallowing a Bill moved by a Hindu MNA for total
ban on the consumption of liquor. He said the walk out by
the MNAs except those of the MMA was tantamount to inviting
Allah's wrath and proved ignorance of the Islamic
teachings.
JI deputy chief Dr. Farid Ahmed Piracha, while condemning
the US decision, said in his statement that Pakistan's
constitution granted full protection to the minorities and
allowed them freedom to practice their religion. He further
said that the and the judiciary was strong and was
protecting the minorities rights. On the other had, he said,
in the US itself, basic human rights were being denied and
the US had committed the greatest state terrorism in human
history. He urged the Pakistan government to reject the US
pressure on this score.

Guest Editorial
Fears of Population Explosion in Pakistan
By: Hussain Khan, Tokyo
Chief Justice of our country, honorable Mian Saqib Nisar has
raised this question "Is the country capable of supporting
seven children per family. The rate at which the population
is growing in the country is [no less than] a bomb."
In a later symposium, unfortunately, our Prime Minister
Imran Khan has also joined the chorus with the Chief
Justice. He wants to teach children on the merits of family
planning and birth control.
If the problem of population explosion has been overcome in
any country, it was never due to family planning or birth
control or contraceptives. Success came to them through
their positive efforts to develop the country, not through
the negative measures of population curtailment.
Let us have a look on the case study of England, where this
call for population curtailment was raised for the first
time in human history in early 19th century. All Western
European countries have also passed through the same
experience which England had gone through.
In early 19th century such fears were rampant not only in
England but in all Western European countries as they are
today in our country. They were all afraid of poverty due to
uncontrollable population explosion.
Thomas Robert Malthus wrote his essay on "Principle of
Population" in 1798 and modified some of his conclusions in
the next edition in 1803. The rapidly increasing population
of England encouraged by a misguided Poor Law distressed him
very deeply.
He feared that England was heading for a disaster, as our
Chief Justice and Prime Minster are also fearing the same
for Pakistan, and Malthus considered it his solemn duty to
warn his country-men of impending disaster.
In an article on the website,
http://www.economicsdiscussion.net/, the author, Tushar
Seth, has alleviated these fears of the possible negative
effects of population explosion after briefly explaining the
Malthus theory.
In fact, Malthus observed that population would tend to
increase at a geometric rate (2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, etc.),
but food supply would tend to increase at an arithmetic rate
(2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12). Thus, at the end of two hundred years
"population would be to the means of subsistence as 259 to
9; in three centuries as 4,096 to 13, and in two thousand
years the difference would be incalculable." Therefore,
Malthus asserted that population would ultimately outstrip
food supply.
But the Malthusian theory of population has been a subject
of keen controversy. The following is the main ground on
which it has been criticized:
⦁ It is pointed out that Malthus's pessimistic
conclusions have not been borne out by the history of not
only England but of all Western European countries as well.
Gloomy forecast made by Malthus about the economic
conditions of future generations of mankind has been
falsified in the Western world. Population has not increased
as rapidly as predicted by Malthus; on the other hand,
production has increased tremendously because of the rapid
advances in technology. As a result, living standards of the
people have risen instead of falling as was predicted by
Malthus.
It was the period just before the advent of Industrial
revolution in England, which had slowly started since 1780
but culminated during the period 1820 to 1840, say, about 40
years later than Malthus theory.
Some unforeseen later developments that started 40 years
after the Malthus theory dispelled the fears of poverty due
to population explosion. These fears were not mitigated by
reducing population through family planning or birth control
or by the use of contraceptives. All these negative measures
were adopted fervently and zealously, but the contribution
of these measures was infinitesimal and negligible in
alleviating poverty in Western European countries since 19th
century.
Major factors responsible to defuse this population bomb
since early 19th century were some unforeseen developments
beyond human calculations or expectations.
This unforeseen big upheaval in the history of mankind that
exploded all fears of population explosion 40 years after
Malthus gloomy prophesies has been summarized in the
following words:
"The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain, and many
of the technological innovations were of British
origin.[2][3] By the mid-18th century Britain was the
world's leading commercial nation,[4]controlling a global
trading empire with colonies in North America and the
Caribbean, and with some political influence on the Indian
subcontinent, through the activities of the East India
Company.[5] The development of trade and the rise of
business were major causes of the Industrial
Revolution.[1]:15"
"The Industrial Revolution marks a major turning point in
history; almost every aspect of daily life was influenced in
some way. In particular, average income and population began
to exhibit unprecedented sustained growth. Some economists
say that the major impact of the Industrial Revolution was
that the standard of living for the general population began
to increase consistently for the first time in
history,"-----------------Encyclopedia Wikipedia
These factors can be categorized as some sort of Divine
Blessing rewarding positive human efforts in the right
direction. Divine help enabled these countries to overcome
their problem of poverty due to population explosion. It was
the role of God that brought about a great miraculous
upheaval in the history of mankind that started the modern
era through Industrial Revolution. Malthus could not foresee
such an unexpected possibility.
Europeans are not Muslims. But how Allah has solved the
population explosion of even Christian England and of all
Christian European countries should be an eye-opener for
Muslims. This history of Western European economic
development should be a matter to strengthen our faith in
the Quranic verdict:
"There is no moving creature on the earth whose sustenance
does not depend on Allah" -------------(Surah Hud-6)
His responsibility is not confined to Muslims alone. He is
guaranteeing sustenance to all living beings including all
Non-Muslims as well. As this verse is valid for all living
beings, Christians of Western Europe were also rewarded by
God, Who helped them to succeed in their positive efforts
for an Industrial Revolution.
However, there is a different example of a country which has
become one of the richest countries in the world without any
Industrial Revolution. They had no new knowledge nor any
technology. They were simple desert Bedouins. Its leaders
did not resort to reduce population through birth control
and family planning. Their methodology to eradicate poverty
was different.
As Muslims they believed in the exhortations of Quran and
Hadith. Their ruler enforced Shariah in his country and
prayed to Allah to make his country and population wealthy
and prosperous, as Allah has promised in the holy Quran that
if you enforce Shariah, He will pour out treasures of wealth
and prosperity from below the earth and from over the
heavens. He believed in it and got results as promised in
the holy Quran to fulfill his dream of eradication of
poverty. His country and people became prosperous by
following the tenets of the holy Quran.
In Saudi Arabia there are people like the father of Osama
Bin Laden, who had 22 children. Many Arab Muslims are like
him. They do not have any concept of limiting the number of
children. They never practice Birth Control. Neither they do
any Family Planning, nor they ever use contraceptives.
Neither the masses nor the government has ever raised fears
of population explosion. Rather due to shortage of native
population, they have granted immigrant visas to thousands
of workers from Pakistan, Egypt, India, Nepal, Philippine
and other countries.
They were also facing extreme poverty before the discovery
of the Black Gold, Petroleum. During the days of poverty
also they never thought of population control. Why? They had
faith in the above Quranic verdict. Like Christian Europe of
19th century, they were also miraculously rescued by
God.
King Abdul Aziz, the founder of Saudi dynasty, simply
enforced Shariah in his country. He wept and wept for his
country's welfare. While weeping, he prayed to Allah with
Ghilaf-e-Kaaba in his hands that he has fulfilled his duty
as a Muslim to enforce Shariah in the Muslim State under his
control. He has done his duty. He then beseeched Allah to
have His blessings to alleviate poverty from his Kingdom.
Allah alleviated poverty without any Industrial Revolution
or technology. Allah rescued his country in the form of
discovery of Black Gold pouring out from beneath the sand
dunes in this Kingdom of Desert in the form of Petroleum.
President Roosevelt came from America to see him half way to
meet this Bedouin King. They both met on a ship in the
middle of a high sea. President Roosevelt assured him to
explore Petroleum in his country with American technology
and expertise.
This is how Allah miraculously helps those who have faith in
his teachings and act on them. Alas, despite getting
Pakistan as a gift of God in the name of Islam against all
forceful Hindu and British opposition, we have thrown away
Shariah implementation in cold storage and are struggling in
darkness haphazardly and are gloomily moving towards
negative measures against the tenets of Quran and Sunnah and
even against the lessons of history of developed countries
of today..
The story of Saudi wealth and prosperity and its eradication
of poverty proves the truth of the earlier-quoted Quranic
verse and also of another one which is specifically against
birth control and family planning:
"Do not kill your offspring for fear of want: for it is We
Who provide them and you as well. Indeed their killing is a
heinous crime.31 -----------------(Surah Bani
Israel-31).
Imran Khan has forgotten that he was boasting in his 100-day
speech that we have big development potential as many
foreign investors had approached him. He said that they are
attracted to invest in Pakistan, thanks to the percentage of
youth in our country. It is highest in the world, he said,
as the ratio of youth in our population is 60%. Does he want
to reduce that percentage from now onwards by birth control
and family planning out of fear of poverty?
In several Ahadith our Prophet (PBUH) has said that it will
be his Pride on the day of Qiyamah that he has the largest
number of his followers and therefore he prohibited Muslims
from marrying such women who cannot or do not bear children.
It is a clear Hadith which says in unequivocal terms that we
should have such a family planning that it results in
increasing our children, not to decrease them. Our family
planning should be in opposite direction of what our CJ and
PM are pleading for.
"Narrated Ma'qil bin Yasar (ra) said that a man came to the
Messenger of Allah and said: 'I have found a woman who is
from a good family and of good status, but she does not bear
children, should I marry her?' He told him not to. Then he
came to him a second time and he told him not to (marry
her). Then he came to him a third time and he told him not
to (marry her), then he said: 'Marry the one who is fertile
and loving, for I will boast of your great numbers.'"
--------------------Grade: Hasan (Darussalam), Reference:
Sunan an-Nasa'i: The Book of Marriage. Hadith: 3227
Our most beloved and great Prophet (PBUH) has always
encouraged to have more and more children and regarded them
as a Blessing from Allah, not a burden to increase poverty.
See a Hadith below. He has not said to reduce them. He has
prayed to increase children and have His Blessings for them,
not to decrease them by birth control and family
planning.
"Narrated By Anas : My mother said, "O Allah's Apostle!
Please invoke Allah on behalf of your servant." He said, "O
Allah! Increase his wealth and children, and bestow Your
Blessing on whatever You give him." a time of
distress---------(Al-Bukjari- Hadith No. 6346)
Thank God, our countrymen are Muslims and have faith in the
admonitions in the holy Quran and Hadith. The sermons of CJ
and PM against the clear injunctions of Quran and Hadith
will not be heeded by our population, as in all Muslim
countries such efforts have totally failed.
Sincerely with regards,
Hussain Khan, M. A. (Tokyo)

*THE PATIENCE OF PROPHET AYYUB*
['ALAYHIS SALAM]~
{A REMINDER FOR ALL MUSLIMS SUFFERING FROM AILMENTS}~
'Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem'
'Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barkatuh'
Allah the Glorified and Exalted says.. "And remember Ayyub,
when he cried to his Lord: Verily distress has seized me,
and You are the Most Merciful of all those who show mercy.
So We answered his call, and We removed the distress that
was on him, and We restored his family to him and the like
thereof along with them, as a mercy from Ourselves and a
reminder for all who worship Us."
[Source~ 'Qur'aan'~Surat Al-Anbiyaa' 21~ A # 83-84]
Imaam 'Abdur-Rahman as-Sa'dee ~ [Rahimahullaah] said..
"Meaning, remember Our slave and Messenger Ayyub ['Alayhis
Salaam], praising him and revering him, and raising his
station, when (Allah) tested him with a severe test and thus
found him remaining patient, being pleased with Him. What
occurred is that Shaytaan had gained strength over his body
as a trial and test from Allah. Shaytaan blew into his body
so he became full of ulcers. he remained this way a long
period, and his ailment worsened after which his family died
and he lost his wealth.
So he cried out to his Lord.. "Verily, distress has seized
me, and You are the Most Merciful of all those who show
mercy."
So he sought a means of nearness to Allah with supplication
by mentioning his condition, and that affliction has seized
him greatly. And due to the expansive and vast mercy of his
Lord Allah answered him and said.. "Strike the ground with
your foot. This is a spring of water to wash in, cool and a
refreshing drink."
[Source 'Qur'aan' Surat Saad~ 38A #42]
So he struck the ground with his foot and a cold spring
gushed forth, so he washed therefrom and drank, so Allah
cured him of his ailments. Allah [Azza Wa Jall] said.. "and
We restored his family to him..." Meaning, We returned his
family and his wealth to him. Allah [Azza Wa Jall] said.
"...and the like thereof..." Meaning that Allah bestowed
upon him well being, also an abundance of family and wealth.
Allah [Azza Wa Jall] said.. "...as a mercy from
Ourselves..." Meaning upon him due to him having patience
and being pleased with what Allah had decreed, so Allah gave
him an immediate reward before the reward of the Hereafter.
Allah [Azza Wa Jall] said.. "...and a reminder for all who
worship Us..." Meaning, We have made it an admonition for
the worshipers who benefit from practicing patience. If they
look to the distress that afflicted Ayyub ['Alayhis Salaam]
how Allah [Azza Wa Jall] rewarded him after it left him, and
if they look at the reason behind that, they will find that
it was because of his patience. Due to this, Allah [Azza Wa
Jall ]praised him because of it [his patience] in His
statement.. "Truly, We found him patient. How excellent a
slave ! Verily he was ever oft returning in repentance (to
us)."
[Source~ 'Qur'aan'~ Surat Saad~ 38 ~A #44]
So He made Ayyub ['Alayhis Salaam] an example for the slaves
when calamities befall them."
