Al-Harith bin Hisham asked Allah's Apostle "O Allah's
Apostle! How is the Divine Inspiration revealed to you?"
Allah's Apostle replied, "Sometimes it is (revealed) like
the ringing of a bell, this form of Inspiration is the
hardest of all and then this state passes ' off after I have
grasped what is inspired. Sometimes the Angel comes in the
form of a man and talks to me and I grasp whatever he says."
'Aisha added: Verily I saw the Prophet being inspired
Divinely on a very cold day and noticed the Sweat dropping
from his forehead (as the Inspiration was over).
We broke our own record.

Sonny Bill Williams condemns China over Uighur Muslim
treatment
The top player says he's "always been one to stand up, not
just for myself, but for what I feel is right".
Rugby star Sonny Bill Williams has spoken publicly for the
first time about China's treatment of its minority Uighur
Muslim community, telling Sky News he is "only embarrassed I
don't speak up enough".
Williams, who converted to Islam 10 years ago while playing
for Toulon in France, has also joined a growing trend of
athlete activism.
In December, he posted an image on social media of a hand
with the Chinese flag gripping on to a bloody arm
representing East Turkmenistan, the former name of China's
Xinjiang province.
It was an open condemnation of the detention of more than a
million Uighur Muslims in Xinjiang province in what China
says are "anti-extremist re-education centres".
Williams told Sky News he had been a longtime and vocal
supporter "of our brothers and sisters in China".
"They are in the detention camps over there and facing
disgusting injustices," he continued.
"For myself, I just speak my truth. Sometimes I get it wrong
but in this instance I definitely know I'm not."
Williams said: "Sometimes you can speak your truth, whether
that can get you offside with people or not.
"But I've always been one to stand up, not just for myself,
but for what I feel is right - and in that situation, that's
all it was."
Williams said he wouldn't be deterred by a potential
backlash.
"You think you know what is hard, what is pressure, what are
tough situations," he said.
"But then, take yourself out from where you are. We wake up
everyday and we can do what we want. But there's people
around the world that can't even eat, that have to watch out
for bombs being dropped on their heads."
Williams continued: "When it comes to that situation of
being able to speak up as sportsman, I'm almost embarrassed
to say that I don't speak up enough.
"That's not just as a Muslim, but that's as a human as well.
You know, there's many atrocities going on around the world
that you know you can't even fathom. So here we are, and we
are just trying our best."

Israeli Airstrikes Reported in Gaza for Third Day in a Row
For the third day in a row, Israeli warplanes attacked
several posts in the northern and central Gaza Strip causing
damage to property.
Israeli airplanes fired several missiles last night at a
location northwest of the town of Beit Lahiya, north of the
Gaza Strip, causing damage to the site bombed but no
injuries.
Strikes were also reported in other locations in the Strip.
No casualties were reported.
During the past three days, the Israeli air force struck
dozens of targets across Gaza, claiming they were in
response to the firing of mortar shells from the besieged
sea enclave into southern Israel that so far caused no
injuries or damage.
Gaza has been targeted by many Israeli military campaigns,
including several major wars that resulted in the killing
and wounding of tens of thousands of Palestinians.

Red Mosque [Lal Masjid] Leader Maulana Abdul Aziz Responds
to Regime's Rs.10,000,000,000 Offer to Move out of
Islamabad.
On January 27, the current leader of the seminary Jamia
Hafsa and Red Mosque in Islamabad, received a 100 million
Rupees offer from the government
to move the entire Red Mosque and Syeda Hafsa out of
Islamabad to some other place in Pakistan.
Maulana Abdul Aziz gave his response in the Urdu language on
the Internet. Here is a summary in English.
"I have a counter offer. Establish Islamic Law of Qur'an and
Sunnah in Pakistan and I will move out.
We are not here to accept any kind of worldly benefits.
We see injustice and we want to end it.
We see extreme poverty and denial of basic rights and we
want Qu'ran and Sunnah so that Pakistan may prosper.
The innocent and the weak are being trampled over. The rich
are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer.
Don't ridicule Islam by talking about Madina. Scholars of
Islam have been killed in Pakistan. Hundreds of women have
been raped and assaulted and the criminals have not been punished.
Where are the rights of women given in Qur'an and Sunnah?
There is no rule of law here, let alone Islamic law,
Injustice is so extreme that even when a court sentenced
General Musharraf for treason, the General's people turned around and
condemned the court.
Millions of Rupees have been collected in the name of
Kashmir liberation but there is no movement to liberate
Kashmir. If you are serious about Kashmir we will be the
first to strive.
You cannot delink us from Qur'an and Sunnah. You killed
members of our family. You could not make us waver. You killed our
mother [burnt alive with phosphorous] and we did not waver.
Abdur Rasheed Ghazi fought to the end and gave his life
against huge odds. We did not waver.
Remember when the Prophet, pbuh, was offered all the goods
of the world and he said even if you put the sun in my right
hand and the moon in my left, I will not accept your offers.
I will continue with my mission till I perish.
That is the example Red Mosque and Jamia Hafsa are
following.
We are for Qur'an and Sunnah. You cannot make us waver,
inshaAllah.
Pasrur [Punjab[
Allama Khadim Hussain Rizvi Rebuts Imran Regime's Attack on
the Anti-Blasphemy Movement.
It was all in Iqbal's Poetry & Hadith Narrations.
Recently 85 supporters of the Anti-Blasphemy movement led by
Allama Rizvi were sentenced to 55 years each. They were
accused of protesting in the streets and treated as
"terrorists" though f they had not hurt anyone.
In his fiery and scholarly rebuttal of the regime's brutal
action, hard core Sunni scholar Allama Rizvi pointed out
that Finality of Prophethood is the basis of Pakistan's
ideology. Regime's attempts to crush the anti-Blasphemy
movement will back fire.
The regime has gone to the extent of arresting all the male
relatives of Allama Rizvi. In addition to 55 year sentences
[unique in Pakistan's history], the Imran regime has
confiscated all the movable and immovable properties of the
Rizvi family. Even his 90 year old uncle has been sentenced.
Quoting extensively from Iqbal's poetry and from hadith,
Allama Rizvi blasted the regime's actions and expressed the spiritual
righteousness of the anti-blasphemy movement.
Allama Rizvi defied the regime's actions as anti-Islam. The
regime has tried to desecrate and defy the sanctity of the Prophet
Muhammad, pbuh.
The chances of the regime winning against the Islamic
movement are zero. Brutality and arrogant power cannot
defeat faith, love of the Prophet, pbuh, anf finality of
prophethood.
[New Trend's note: The regime and secularist groups have
used major media to insult Allama Rizvi as a loud mouth
abusive maulvi who uses dirty language. The speech by Allama
Rizvi was pure scholarship transmitted through the brilliant
poetry of Iqbal. The regime has failed miserably to
terrorize and subdue this eloquent scholar.]

Critical Review of Huge March & its Exclusions.
Bringing Aafia to the Women's March
By Nadrat Siddique
January 18, 2020
Washington, DC
I attended the Women's March today. The mass action
originated in 2017 with Donald Trump's election, and was in
its fourth year. Although I live in the DC area, and as my
friends and family know, I rarely say "no" to a protest or
rally for justice, it was my first time participating.
I was not convinced, by any means, of either the agenda or
the modus operandi of the very White, very liberal feminist
organizers. My primary objective in participating was to
keep the name of Dr. Aafia Siddiqui in the public eye. The
Pakistani neuroscientist-turned political prisoner was now
in her 14th year of imprisonment for a crime she clearly
could not have committed, and after a few murmurings from
the government of Pakistani President Imran Khan about
"bringing our sister home" (the suggestion was to repatriate
Aafia as part of a negotiation between Pakistan and the
U.S.), she seemed once again forgotten by those in the seats
of power on both sides of the Atlantic.
But, it was not just about Aafia. To me, Aafia is symbolic
of the many Muslim women prisoners who are abused,
neglected, forcibly de-hijabed, raped, tortured, shackled,
or separated from their children—all away from public
scrutiny. Such treatment is commonplace not only in prisons
on the mainland U.S., but also in U.S. "Black sites," in
Israeli prisons (whose interrogators and security personnel
are frequently U.S.-trained), and in the prisons of
U.S.-sponsored or supported dictators like Salman bin
Abulaziz (Saudi Arabia) and Bashir Al-Assad (Syria). A
women's march with no mention of the suffering of all of
these women would reinforce the idea that this was a
privileged White Women's bitchin' fest.
The Women's March organizers were, well, organized. There
was not only the March on Saturday, but workshops and other
events all week to build for it. These included a panel
discussion Monday night called "Why Women Lead on Climate."
Tuesday night saw a panel entitled "Reproductive Rights,
Health, and Justice, and the 2020 Landscape." Wednesday
night's event was billed "Solidarity and the Immigration
Justice Movement." On Thursday afternoon, a shifting of
gears occurred, as activists headed to the White House for a
"No War on Iran" protest, which included non-violent direct
action (civil disobedience). That evening, the women settled
in to make posters for the upcoming protest at a
"poster-making party." On Friday afternoon, march organizers
held a press conference at Freedom Plaza, the starting point
for the March the next day. That night, they held a
networking session for youth activists. And on Sunday, the
day after the March, a "Fourth Wave Drag Lunch" was held,
where participants had an opportunity to meet the March
leadership. It was organized to a T, as only women can
organize.
The website had numerous options for endorsing,
contributing, and getting text updates for the March itself.
There was a major pumping of Women's March merchandise, on
the website, as well as in follow-up emails and texts sent
to recipients who opted in to receive updates.
(Amusingly, when I attempted to sign up for text updates,
the system asked how much I would like to contribute. I
checked the box for "$0, unable to contribute at this time,"
as I did not wish to donate to what I considered a
privileged, predominantly White feminist march. The system
would not allow me proceed unless I contributed! I relented
and checked the box for a hefty $5. Viola! I was registered
to receive updates from the March.)
The Women's March website had a map delineating the precise
march route. That morning, I ran the Martin Luther King Day
5k in Carderock. It was 26 degrees during the race, and
there was light snow on the trail we ran. After the race, I
was in dire need of de-thawing. As a result, I arrived a
little late at the March. Despite my late arrival, I was
able to locate the march with ease—thanks to the map
issued by the organizers.
By the time I arrived near Freedom Plaza, the starting and
ending point of the protest, light snow had changed to rain
and freezing rain. Mere blocks away from the protest, I
nearly turned tail and left. It seemed highly unlikely that
they would persevere in freezing cold precipitation. And
yet, there they were.
As I caught up to the March, I realized its scale. Although
far less than the 200,000 of the original 2017 Women's
March, which arose in response to Trump's election, the
women (and their male allies) were in the tens of thousands.
As an organizer, I know how hard it is to keep up the
momentum of a movement or protest action, and I applauded
them for their resilience.
The predominantly White women marchers carried signs like
"Impeach the Rapist," "Keep Abortion Legal," "Trump/Pence
Out Now," "Cage the Con, Not the Kids," "Rise Up for the
Earth," "Reproductive Justice for All," and "Fight the
Climate Crisis, Not Birth Control." When they reached the
White House, they sang and danced to the song "Un violador
en tu camino" ("A Rapist in Your Path"), following the lead
of the Chilean protest group Lastesis.
I walked with the marchers briefly, then took up a position
on a park bench across from DAR Constitution Hall, near the
Ellipse with my sign for Dr. Aafia. The sign, which I'd
hastily penned the night before, read: "Pakistani Women say:
FREE DR. AAFIA SIDDIQUI, U.S. political prisoner." Thousands
of marchers passed, clearly intrigued by my sign. I received
numerous thumbs up, fist pumps, waves of sympathy, and nods
of appreciation. As my sign was unusual, many wanted to
photograph it. Some of the marchers had heard of Aafia's
case. Others were intensely curious about who she was, why
and where she was in prison, and whether I was related to
her. It was an overwhelming positive vibe from the marchers,
and I was glad I was there.
A while later, I could see the last few contingents of the
march approaching. As my hands were numb from cold, I
rejoined the group and headed back towards Freedom Plaza. En
route, I stopped and did a brief Facebook live presentation
on Aafia, and why I was there. Very soon thereafter, my
colleague from the Aafia Foundation, Mauri Saalakhan, who
has advocated for Aafia from the onset of her travails,
shared the video with over thirty Facebook groups. This
resulted in 3,400 views and 229 shares. Alhamdulillah.
Analysis
In July 2019, three of the founding board members of the
Women's March, Tamika Mallory, Bob Bland and Linda Sarsour
were forced to resign, in the face of allegations of
"anti-semitism" (Orwellian Doublespeak for anything which
questions, or fails to toe the line of the Zionists, however
remotely). One more, Carmen Perez, was the target of similar
accusations, but remained on the board. She did, however,
have to write numerous op-eds apologizing for the Women's
March's failure to address anti-semitism in a timely
fashion.
Ostensibly to increase diversity in the leadership of the
Women's March, a 17-member Board of Directors was brought
in. Of these, three are Jewish (Ginna Green, Ginny Goldman,
and Rabbi Tamara Cohen), one is transgender (Isa Noyola),
and one is queer (Charlene Carruthers). There are two Muslim
women (Palestinian-American Samia Assed; and San Francisco
CAIR's Zahra Billoo).
But, the March's aim of inclusivity and increasing diversity
evidently did not extend to the denizens of the host city.
Black Lives Matter-DC was outright excluded from the
planning and logistics of the March. (This resulted in the
American Civil Liberties Union's DC chapter boycotting the
March in solidarity with BLM-DC.) In addition to ignoring
BLM, the Women's March leadership failed to reach out to
other prominent Black activist groups in DC, like the
National Black United Front (NBUF), the Pan-African
Community Action (PACA), the Nation of Islam, the Clara
Muhammad School, Masjid Al-Islam, or the All-African
Peoples' Revolutionary Party (A-APRP), in advance of the
event.
The Women's March states as its three major focus areas:
immigration, climate, and reproductive justice. Given this,
and the current leadership, it was not surprising that there
was no voicing of key Muslim concerns: the ongoing
incarceration of Muslim political prisoners; the
government's failure to close Guantanamo; the continued U.S.
bombing of Syria and Iraq; and U.S. support for Israeli
Apartheid. While privileged White women marched for the
right to have an abortion, women in Iraq and Syria yearned
for the right not to have a U.S. missile land in their
living room; or to have drinking water clear of cholera, and
soil free of depleted uranium.
Major concerns of the Black and Brown community, like police
brutality, the school-to-prison pipeline, and mass
incarceration, while marginally present in the Women's March
in previous years, seemed almost completely absent at the
2020 march. To hold a protest in a historically Black
city—and yet neglect such key issues seemed to me a
major shortcoming of the March.
The Egyptian Canadian Coalition for Democracy is organizing
the screening of "El Hatk" (The Assault) in cinemas at
various Canadian cities. Human rights activists,
politicians, and university professors will be invited to
the screenings.
"El Hatk" (The Assault) is a jarring and insightful glimpse
into the traumatic legacy of life under dictatorship in
Egypt. A movie inspired by true stories.
In January 2011, millions of Egyptians participated in a
glorious revolution that successfully ended the 30-year rule
of dictator Hosni Mubarak. However, just two-and-half years
later, a military coup occurred that overthrew democratic
rule and started a tyrannical campaign that killed hundreds
of protestors in the streets, detained tens of thousands,
and led many more into exile.
El Hatk ("The Assault") is a movie depicting the trauma
faced by various segments of the society in Egypt by a
ruthless dictatorship.

The First Zündel Trial
The Court Transcript of the Canadian "False News" Trial of
Ernst Zündel, 1985
By Ernst Zündel
In the early 1980s, Ernst Zündel, a German immigrant living
in Toronto, was indicted for allegedly spreading "false
news" by selling copies of Richard Hardwood's brochure Did
Six Million Really Die?, which challenged the accuracy of
the orthodox Holocaust narrative. When the case went to
court in 1985, so-called Holocaust experts and
"eyewitnesses" of the alleged homicidal gas chambers at
Auschwitz were cross-examined for the first time in history
by a competent and skeptical legal team. The results were
absolutely devastating for the Holocaust orthodoxy. Even the
prosecutor, who had summoned these witnesses to bolster the
mainstream Holocaust narrative, became at times annoyed by
their incompetence and mendacity. For decades, these
mind-boggling trial transcripts were hidden from public
view. Now, for the first time, they have been published in
print in this new book - unabridged and unedited.

Abu Hurairah (Allah be pleased with him) reported that
PROPHET (peace be upon him) said...
"Never a believer is stricken with a discomfort, an illness,
an anxiety, a grief or mental worry or even the pricking of a thorn but
Allah will expiate his sins on account of his patience".
[Source ~Al-Bukhari ~Book 32 H # 6243 ~]
"Patience does not mean to passively endure. It means to be
farsighted
enough to trust the end result of a process...
What does patience mean...?
It means to Look at the Thorn and see the Rose, to look at
the
Night and see the Dawn.
Impatience means to be shortsighted as to not able to see
the outcome.
The lovers of God never run out of Patience, for they know
that Time is
needed for the Crescent Moon to become Full."

Thankfulness and Patience...
"Whatever happens in your life, no matter how troubling
things might
seem, do Not enter the neighbourhood of Despair.
Even when all doors remained closed, ALLAH will open up a
new path only for you.
Be Thankful! It is easy to be thankful when all is
well.
But ....{?} be Thankful not only for what you have been
given but also for all that you have been denied...{!}
