Ghana is Leading Africa
Jamaat al-Muslimeen notes that BBC and the Anglican church
in UK are attacking Ghana's new bill against LGBTQ.
Here are a couple of quotes:
"Gay sex is already punishable in the West African nation
with a prison term of three years.
The bill seeks to increase jail terms to up to a decade and
force some to undergo "conversion therapy", where attempts
are made to change people's sexuality.
It also make cross-dressing and public displays of same-sex
affection punishable by fines or detention, and makes the
distribution of material deemed pro-LGBT by news
organisations or websites illegal."
BBC is shocked to note that 34 African countries have
criminalized homosexuality.
Pakistan
Imran Regime decided to negotiate.
October 31. The latest news is that large numbers of TLP
activists are sitting at Wazirabad. The government has
brought several thousand troops to bar TLP's route to
Islamabad. Large parts of eastern Punjab are in conditions
of collapse of commercial life with trains, buses and other
forms of mobility at a stand still. Social media are
suspended. Thousands have been arrested..
The government has stopped its propaganda campaign and is
claiming that all of TLP demands have been met after hours
of negotiation. Its not clear what happened about the demand
against France.

Protestors Broke through Barricades in Brooklyn.
by Sis. Aisha
[Jamaat al-Muslimeen]
Sunday, October 24th, was the Brooklyn Nets' home-opening
basketball game. However, the Barclay's Center arena had to
briefly halt the admission of fans to prevent protestors
from gaining entrance. There were barricades set up and some
protestors broke through them in an effort to enter the arena.
Organizers included Hank Newsome (Black Lives Matter), Rev.
Kevin McCall, and Teachers for Choice. The media is
describing it as a large crowd. Many protestors were
chanting, "Let Kyrie Play." But, many of the protestors said
that they were protesting the COVID-19 vaccine mandate, in
general.
Although a loophole allows Kyrie Irving to practice and play
outside of New York, the Nets organization decided they did
not want a part-time player. Kyrie has been banned until he
gets at least one COVID-19 vaccine shot.
One fan criticized Kyrie Irving's unvaccinated status saying
that he should trust science. While there may be some junk
science involved, such as suggestions that the vaccine is a
part of a mind-control experiment, there are other
common-sense reasons the unvaccinated are so skeptical about
getting the shot:
It is not a true vaccine, it is gene therapy.
Although drugs or vaccines, usually, require at least ten
years of clinical trials to determine their effectiveness
and any observed side effects, the COVID-19 Vaccine had only
been in existence for four months before being allowed on
the market, which makes us the test subjects.
The message is that the ONLY option for combatting
COVID-19 is to get vaccinated. Nothing else should be
considered.
There is government pressure to force people to "choose"
to get vaccinated by mandating vaccines to patronize certain
industries. i.e Fitness, fine dining, and entertainment.
In spite of being told the vaccine protects against
COVID-19, some vaccinated people have contracted it and died
from the disease. i.e Colin Powell.
It does not take an in-depth knowledge of science to
question some of the above red flags about the COVID-19
vaccine. People have a right to question these red flags and
avoid getting vaccinated until their concerns about it have
been addressed.

Opinion
Genetic disease is ravaging small counties in Pennsylvania
where the Amish live due to generations of Inbreeding.
New Trend staff comment: A few months ago [August 2021,
Newsletter #1929] New Trend shared the disturbing story
published by Cosmopolitan about the Amish religious
communities in America and their high rate of rape, incest,
abuse and wicked methods they have for silencing of victims.
Physicians and scientists have known about these conditions
for decades and have been studying the genetic damage that
exists because of their long, documented history of
inbreeding.
Pennsylvania - Soon after birth, Daniel and Rebecca
Stoltzfus's first child fell ill.
Fearing pneumonia, her parents rushed her to a hospital
where she later died.
Testing revealed Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID), a
rare genetic disease, as the cause of death.
The condition, an inherited disorder of the immune system
known colloquially as "the bubble boy disease," is present
in roughly one in every 40,000 to 70,000 live births in the
U.S., according to the National Institutes of Health.
But in the Stoltzfus home, the rate is one-in-four. "We have
12 children and three of them ended up having SCID," Daniel
Stoltzfus said.
For the Stoltzfuses, their children and thousands of Amish
like them, the odds are centuries in the making and rooted
in something called the "founder effect."
It exists at the unlikely intersection of random chance and
deliberate community planning: The result of generations of
intermarriage, genetic drift and the biological bottleneck
those factors have spawned.
In Lancaster County, where the Stoltzfuses live, the first
Amish arrived from Switzerland between 1737 and 1767.
They sought to trade the religious schism in Europe at the
time for Pennsylvania, William Penn's New Eden of planned
tolerance.
And while the insular communities that followed allowed the
religious sect to thrive and its practices to go largely
unchanged for generations, they presented biological risks
that only worsened over time as the population expanded but
its genetic profile didn't.
Currently, more than 50,000 Lancaster County Amish can trace
their lineage to just 80 ancestors, less than a tenth of
what that number would be outside of the religious community
in the 250 years, or 10 generations, since its founding.
Fewer ancestors mean more sharing of genetic material and
any genetic defects -- the same linked to potentially fatal
hereditary diseases like SCID -- contained therein.
Meanwhile, genetic defects not found in the settler
population remain locally non-existent.
This is the founder effect, and evidence of it has been
found in Amish and Mennonite populations from Pennsylvania
and Ohio to Ontario, Canada.
In Lancaster County, the resulting rash of certain childhood
diseases and birth defects drew the attention of a
Philadelphia medical fellow who, tracing them to the Amish
here, began a project that would alter the course of genomic
science, medicine and this community forever.
He called it the Clinic for Special Children.
The human costs
Bunker Hill Road snakes along the low, marbled hills of
Strasburg like a mule path.
It stretches between the outbuildings of large animal farms,
and snaps like a bullwhip in the corners, where the edges of
those farms force the road, and drivers, to go around.
At the end of a rutted dirt driveway jutting off to the
south, the Clinic for Special Children -- a large,
wood-framed building hidden behind the tree line -- has
drawn a crowd for a planned community day.
Amish and Mennonite families, including the Stoltzfuses, are
there, along with doctors and specialists in pediatric and
genomic medicine.
The juxtaposition is startling: Old Order Amish mingling
with the vanguards of modern medicine. Shunners of
technology in a building brimming with some of the finest
examples the 21st century has to offer.
But here, the "men of science" and "men of God," share a
history.
They share an icon, too.
His name is Dr. D. Holmes Morton.
Morton, a Harvard Medical School graduate, was working at
the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia in the late 1980s
when the first cases involving Amish children from nearby
Lancaster County came through his door.
Dr. Holmes Morton
By all accounts Morton grew obsessed with explaining them
and in 1989 he and his wife, Caroline, moved to Strasburg to
be on the front lines. The clinic was opened soon
thereafter.
Morton's first casework involved a group of 16 Amish
children diagnosed with "Amish cerebral palsy," until then a
fringe medical mystery with no known cause.
Morton determined all but one shared GA1 or Glutaric
Aciduria, Type 1, an inherited metabolic disorder that leads
to a build up of potentially harmful acids in the blood.
Unchecked, it can prompt a metabolic stroke that leaves
Amish children paralyzed or "locked-in" -- able to think and
feel, but not to speak or move.
The condition is present in one in 400 Amish births in
Lancaster County, and almost non-existent outside of it.
Through the clinic's development of new diagnostic tools and
treatments, as well as its groundbreaking use of genetic
mapping, Morton was able to zero-out what was once a 93
percent injury rate.
He did the same with Maple Syrup Urine Disease, a recessive
and potentially fatal metabolic disorder named for the
sweetish odor it lends to bodily fluids like urine and
earwax.
Before the clinic, the disease carried a 60 percent
morbidity rate with local Mennonites -- 1 in 100 of whom are
born with it, compared to 1 in 180,000 worldwide.
The clinic has since treated more than 110 Mennonite
children and eliminated the death rate altogether.

Invitation to Think
Outburst of Anti-Muslim Attacks in India
[via Dr. Firoz Kamal]
15 Mosques Attacked in Tripura, India
Hindutva Mobs launch attack on Indian Muslims in India's
North Eastern State Tripura.
21 confirmed incidents of Hate Crime in the past week.
15 incidents where mosques were vandalized.
3 Mosques completely destroyed in remote areas.
0 arrests made until now.
These violent Hindutva mobs are empowered by government
silence and police inaction. Indian Muslims are calling on
the international community to speak for them and help stop
the persecution before it turns into a full-scale ethnic
cleansing in India.
Five new cases of religious persecution occurred in
September 2021:
A Christian pastor was beaten by supporters of the Bharatiya
Janata Party (BJP) in the state of Chattisgarh;
Raid on the home & offices of Harsh Mander, an activist and
former bureaucrat;
Indian Muslim preacher Maulana Kaleem Siddiqui who has been
"taken into custody" on the charge of "suspicious
activities";
Attack on Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi's Delhi home by
members of the Hindu Sena group; and
Demolition of homes in Assam & killings by police
Murder of a young man murdered in Karnataka
The case of Pastor Harish Sahu - Sept 5, 2021
In the state of Chhattisgarh, a Christian pastor, Harish
Sahu, was beaten for allegedly engaging in forced religious
conversions. On a complaint filed with the police, Pastor
Harish Sahu was called in for questioning to the Purani
Basti police station. At the station, he was beaten by a mob
that was present there. This follows an incident, about a
week earlier, in which Pastor Kawalsingh Paraste was
attacked in lbjoo by a mob of more than 100 people.
Manish Sahu and Sanjay Singh, two members of the Bharatiya
Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM) which is the BJP's youth wing were
held responsible for carrying out the attack and arrested.
However, the BJYM state unit argued that the police were
behaving in a biased manner, and declared that they would
soon call for a state-wide protest against the police.
This demonstrates a serious degradation of the respect of
the law and of law-keeping agencies in India. BJP aligned
individuals and mobs are increasingly acting with a sense of
immunity from being answerable or being held accountable by
state agencies meant to uphold the law.
Raid on home and offices of Harsh Mander - Sept. 16,
2021
India's Enforcement Directorate raided the home and offices
of respected activist Harsh Mander. Mander and his wife had
left just that morning to join a fellowship at the Bosch
Institute in Germany. The raids were conducted under the
guise of suspicion of money laundering. Mander is a former
bureaucrat from the Indian Administrative Services but has
been openly critical of the BJP and Prime Minister Modi's
divisive politics, religious persecution of minorities and
of the majoritarian agenda of the Modi government. Many
civil society leaders termed the raids as a tactic of
harassment and intimidation. In addition to his home and
office, his homes for underprivileged children were also
raided. Mander is on the board of the organization running
the homes.
Mander is an ardent supporter of India's secularism and the
protection of religious freedoms in the country. Mander runs
the organization "Karwan-e-Mohabbat" (a Caravan of Love), a
countrywide campaign of solidarity with victims of
communally and religiously motivated violence. This is
antithetical to the Hindu-majoritarian push of the BJP, and
the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS); its ideological
parent. We strongly believe that the latest attacks against
him are because of his work on religious and other freedoms
being stripped from Indian citizens.
The case of Maulana Kaleem Siddiqui - Sept. 21, 2021
Maulana Kaleem Siddiqui, an Indian Muslim cleric, was
arrested in Uttar Pradesh on September 21, 2021, on charges
of alleged religious conversions and "suspicious
activities". Maulana Siddiqui is the President of the Global
Peace Center. There have recently been many such arrests
using Uttar Pradesh's anti-conversion law which was enacted
in February. Critics and legal experts have stated that the
law is a violation of human rights as stated in the Indian
constitution. It is aimed at punishing inter-faith
marriages, or "love jihad", a slogan used to propagate the
conspiracy theory that Muslim men charm Hindu women into
marrying them with the sole purpose of converting them to
Islam. Under the law, a person who wants to convert and the
individual who is performing the conversion require
permission from a district magistrate. The law specifically
targets inter-faith marriages and states that it can declare
a marriage illegal if it were done for the sole purpose of
conversion, or if a person converts in order to marry.
Attack on the home of Hyderabad MP Owais - Sept. 21,
2021
Hyderabad Member of Parliament Asaduddin Owaisi's official
residence in Delhi was vandalized by members of the Hindu
Sena group. Owaisi has worked towards the upliftment of
minorities such as Muslims and Dalits. Owaisi stated that
the vandals were armed with axes and sticks as they pelted
stones at his house and destroyed the nameplate. He said the
attackers came with video cameras which demonstrated how
sure they were that they would escape with impunity. He
stated that this was the fourth attack of its kind which
showed the people responsible were "emboldened by our
government". He blamed the ruling BJP party for stirring up
communal hatred towards Muslims and other minorities.
Attack and demolition of protesters' homes in Assami - Sept
22, 2021
A group of Muslim villagers was protesting the order of
eviction from their homes in the state of Assam. Assam has
seen many demolitions of Muslim homes. The State terms many
Muslims as foreign encroachers and as illegal occupants of
the land. Police had shown up to carry out the eviction
procedures. The police fired on villagers through the
thicket. When a man rushed out with a stick in his hand, he
was shot. In a particularly disturbing exhibition of hatred
that has been built against these villagers, a photographer
tasked with documenting the eviction was seen stomping on
the man's body. Police are shown brutally assaulting the man
even as he is lying on the ground motionless. The
photographer, Bijay Shankar Baniya, has been arrested after
there was an uproar of criticism in the country against the
police action. Civil society leaders have visited the area,
talked with the ones being evicted as encroachers, and have
made an informed assessment that they are Indian
residents.
Murder and dismemberment of Muslim young man - Sept 28,
2021
This case is directly related to the inter-faith marriage
laws and the associated rhetoric that is being built in
India. A young Muslim man, Arbaz Mulla was brutally
murdered, his body was dismembered, and his severed head,
foot, and torso were thrown on nearby railroad tracks. While
police initially termed it as a suicide, his hands were
tied, and the family points to a series of threats that were
received by them from a group called the Ram Sena, a
Hindutva-aligned group. The threats received were related to
an alleged amorous affair between the young man and a Hindu
girl.

Kindness & Friendship..
by Imam Badi Ali
As-slamu alaikum,
Prophet Mohammad (pbuh) says:
"Allah is Kind, and He loves kindness in all matters."
Allah is the Most Merciful and Kind. Therefore, He instructs
his servants to be compassionate, forgiving, and loving.
Kindness is simple. It is seeing the good in everyone, and
celebrating it - even if it's the exception!
Kindness is like snow- It beautifies everything it
covers.
May Allah soften all of our hearts to be better Muslims ...
Oh Allah just as you have made my external features
beautiful, make my character beautiful. Ameen.
If you have a friend who helps you to obey Allah, hold onto
him." -Imām Shāfi'i
O Allah surround us with righteous friends who help us
remember You. *Ameen*
Interview with Gaza Leader al-Zahar
Previously it had been claimed that imprisoned Fatah Party
leader Marwan Barghouti was the top priority in any prisoner
swap and al-Zahar confirmed that this was true, explaining:
"We are not differentiating between the Palestinian
factions...the last release included a lot of people, not
all of them from one side [politically]. We put down our
values of who should be released, as I told you, old age,
people with chronic diseases, [from] every area, every
faction, every organisation and especially the people who
are in urgent need to be set free - one of them [is] Marwan
Barghouti."
I wanted to know what he makes of the framing, in much of
the Western media, that May's war was orchestrated by Hamas
in order to achieve its own aims, without considering the
goals of the wider Palestinian society. "It was not Hamas,
it was every organisation, everybody, every family," he
explained, blaming the conflict on Israel's attacks on
Palestinian worshippers at the al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem,
which incited people to revolt. "They [Israel] violated
their rights to go and to pray, to celebrate and to do the
Islamic tradition, in this important third [holiest] shrine
in Islam, after Mecca and Madina."
Al-Zahar also opened up about the Israeli killings of his
own children, saying that he saw the remains of one of their
bodies after a tank shelling. "I personally lost two of my
sons," he revealed. "One, called Khaled, after one week
coming back from Europe, he got a masters degree from
Salford University [in Manchester, UK], they killed him in
this house and they killed my last son called Hussam, they
killed him by tank bomb." The seriousness with which his
tone altered, when explaining this, gave a great indication
of the conviction he has to the struggle of the Hamas
movement against the Israelis, it was easy to tell that
despite such personal sacrifices, his mentality has not
faltered; in fact, it seemed as if his losses only
solidified his views.
After having travelled to the occupied territories, speaking
to and interviewing countless ex-prisoners who had suffered
from torture and families who had lost loved ones, I noticed
a very similar tone is often taken, one of unwavering belief
in their cause. Often these sort of tragic events, if they
don't manage to completely devastate and demoralise people,
work only to further tighten their belief in the Palestinian
national struggle.
When pressed on the reason behind his group using violence
to achieve its goals, he replied strongly: "The principle in
any country, the principle in even the animal...is that it
is self-defence...[Benjamin] Netanyahu, still his father is
still living in America, [Avigdor] Lieberman, his father is
still living in Russia, what justifies for these people to
come from every area to occupy our land and to consider it
Israel? We are the real owners of this land for centuries
and centuries."
"Just give me one example in history, in any country, in any
area, in any era, that people that suffered from occupation
allowed the occupier to continue their existence in their
land?"
Everybody is looking for freedom, every country that
suffered from the occupation...they had the right to defend
themselves against occupation."
Asked to comment on recent tensions inside Israeli military
prisons, with claims of human rights abuses against
detainees, he asked, "What does international law have to
say about this?" and blamed Europeans for their silence on
the issue.
Does Hamas view it as Israel's responsibility to help with
post-war reconstruction efforts in Gaza? Al-Zahar shrugged,
stating that Israel would not help and that Hamas wanted
international donors to give them the money to reconstruct.
He also made it clear that he viewed Israel's blocking of
reconstruction efforts as criminal.
Al-Zahar told me that in order for there to be a long-term
truce with Israel, Tel Aviv must allow Palestinians in the
West Bank and Gaza freedom of movement and basic rights and
end its siege of Gaza, which has been in place since 2007.
At no point did he indicate that his organisation would step
aside and agree to a long-term ceasefire, or end their armed
struggle against the Israelis, unless these demands were
met, commenting firmly on the resolve of the group: "We have
to defend our land, to defend our people, to allow our
generations to live as human beings in the future."

Canada's tomatoes
[CBC]
Canadian consumers who purchase popular tomato pastes,
sauces and ketchups may actually be buying products
harvested and manufactured by Uyghurs and other ethnic
minorities under oppressive working conditions in China,
according to a CBC Marketplace investigation.
Marketplace, in collaboration with the Investigative
Reporting Project Italy — a non-profit media
association — and The Guardian, found some of the
world's biggest grocers, including ones here in Canada, are
stocked with tomato products that could be tied to forced
labour in Xinjiang, a remote area of western China where
Uyghurs are subjected to mass detention, surveillance and
torture by the Chinese government, in what many countries
have labelled a genocide.
"This is such a moral failure on the side of these
companies," said Adrian Zenz, senior fellow in China studies
at the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation.
Zenz said the "risk of forced labour is endemic and
systemic" in China's tomato industry and that "it's high
time [these companies] increased their awareness."

Big Moves Against Western Powers & their Allies
October 30.
Sudanese Army Chief Gen. Abdel Fattah al-Burhan on Saturday
relieved three more ambassadors of their duties, local media
reported.
The head of the ruling military council relieved Adil
Ibrahim Mustafa, Sudan's ambassador to Turkey; Muhammed
al-Emin, ambassador to the United Arab Emirates, and Usame
Salahuddin, ambassador to South Africa, of their duties,
Sudanese state television said.
Their dismissal comes three days after the army chief made
the same decision, suspending the country's ambassadors to
the US, EU, China, Qatar, France, and the head of Sudan's
Geneva mission.
Burhan proclaimed a state of emergency on Monday, dissolving
the transitional government and the Sovereign Council.
Before the military takeover, Sudan was administered by a
sovereign council of military and civilian authorities,
which was tasked to oversee the transition period until
elections slated for 2023 as part of a precarious
power-sharing pact between the military and the Forces for
Freedom and Change coalition.
