RALLY

 Fifth rally for Dr Aafia Siddiqui

Fifth rally for Dr. Aafia Siddiqui. This one was at Lafayette Park in Front of the White House.

by Dr. Kaukab Siddique

On November 13 an impressive rally calling for the end of the oppression of Dr. Aafia Siddiqui was organized in Washington DC. From the impressions we have gleaned from Br. Mauri Salaakhan and Sis. Nadrat Siddique, it appears that support for Aafia's release is steadily increasing. The crowd was diverse and speakers came from as far as Houston and Ft. Worth, Texas.

Among the protestors were those supporting both Sis. Aafia and Imam Jamil al-Amin. Prominent among the supporters were the Jericho Movement in Richmond, Virginia [Jihad Abdul Mumit] and the New Black Panther Party [Shaikh Akbar]. Distinguished Imam Ali Siddiqui and his family were there. Jamaat al-Muslimeen was represented by Nadrat Siddique. She spoke.

Activist sisters Saleema Gul and Luci Murphy were outstanding.

The Director of the program, Br. Saalakhan, who leads the Aafia movement, was unhappy that CAIR and others who are in the Washington, DC area did not turn up.

The press release issued by the Aafia movement pinpoints this Muslimah's great tragedy in these words:

"Kidnapped (along with her three young children) in March 2003 from her home city of Karachi, Pakistan, she was secretly imprisoned and tortured for five years before being brought back to the United States in 2008 - and later put on trial just blocks away from "ground zero" (New York City) in 2010. Despite the overwhelming evidence pointing to her innocence, and government malfeasance at the highest levels, Dr. Siddiqui was convicted of "attempted murder" of US personnel in Afghanistan (in 2008) and given a sentence of 86 years by a US district court judge (Richard Berman) who was openly biased against her from start to finish! "

The late [former US Attorney General] Ramsey Clark once described the case of Aafia Siddiqui as, "the worst case of individual injustice I have ever witnessed."

JI Appeal to Supreme Court. Pakistan looted by PTI.
by Qaiser Sharif.

ISLAMABAD: November 08: Jamaat-e-Islami has approached the Supreme Court of Pakistan on Pandora Papers issue, appealing the top court to order investigation into the names exposed in the latest papers scandal and Panama Leaks.

JI Emir Sirajul Haq filed the application through lawyer Ishtiaq Ahmed Raja on Monday and prayed the apex court to allow placement of additional documents (Pandora Papers) in already pending petition on Panama Leaks.

The JI had filed the petition before the SC in 2016 on Panama Leaks under the article 184(3) of the Constitution of Pakistan.

"We appealed to the Supreme Court [of Pakistan] to constitute a JIT [joint investigation team]to launch an investigation intothe owners of shell companies mentioned in Pandora Papers and Panama Leaks," Sirajul Haq told the journalists in front of the Supreme Court building after filing the application.

Names of more than 700 Pakistanis were exposed in Pandora Papers and 436 owners of off-shore companies had already been reported in Panama Leaks, he said, adding the JI prayed before the top court that being a competent authority it should provide justice to the poor Pakistanis whose money were stolen and stashed in foreign accounts by the ruling elite.

He said the action was taken only against former prime minister Nawaz Sharif in Panama Leaks issue and that he (Nawaz Sharif) too was ousted on the basis of Iqama (KSA and some other Gulf state residential permit).

"Prime Minister Imran Khan's claims to strength accountability system proved pack of lies. We don't have any faith on the Prime Minister Cell formed to investigate into the Pandora Papers scandal," he said, adding only the Supreme Court could provide justice to the poor Pakistanis.

He said the names of the members of the three parties (the PTI, the PML-N and the PPP) were mentioned in the two leaks besides the owners of shell companies were civil and military bureaucrats, former judges and businessmen.

Sirajul Haq said the billions of rupees of tax payers and poor nation were being stolen by the ruling elite which was so powerful that considered themselves above of any law in the country.

Pakistani elite was at number five on the world list which purchased expensive properties in London and other European countries while people of Pakistan were starving to death, said the JI chief.

"We had knocked the door of the Supreme Court when Panama Leaks were surfaced and now, we again requested the top court to set a strong and independent system of accountability in the country."

The PTI government, he said, was the continuation of the PML-N and the PPP regimes and they were all sides of the same coin, serving their self-interests and having nothing to do with the masses.

New York
They Don't Consult with those who Elect them.

by Sis. Aisha
[Jamaat al-Muslimeen]

After the November 2nd elections, New York City has its second black mayor: Eric Adams. I believe it was Imam Ghazzali who said that there is no one who wants to be your leader who will hold such a position in a just manner. Islamic leadership is done by shura or mutual consultation. Any decision that affects the people must get the people's input.

American leaders are voted in and implement their own policies without conferring with the very people who voted them in office. In fact, these politicians are actually beholden to the people who finance their campaigns but in order to fulfill their financier's wishes, they must gain the voters' trust, first. Very deceitful.

Black voters have not learned from President Barak Obama's political scheme. He used black voters to become president twice yet, dedicated all of his eight years in office promoting homosexuality in Africa and the African-American community, in accordance with his gay rights financiers' wishes.

Mayor-elect Eric Adams is already rubbing people the wrong way by promising to bring back the Anti-Crime Unit, which many associate with illegal stop and frisk. In June 2020, the NYPD abolished this unit as a result of the furor from the Geoge Floyd protests.

Brother and sister duo, Hawk and Chivona Newsome, co-founders of the New York Chapter of Black Lives Matter (BLM), have stated that they will shut New York City down should the Anti-Crime Unit be re-established. Hawk Newsome said, "There will be riots, there will be fire and there will be bloodshed because we believe in defending our people."

Eric Adams, a former police captain and founding member of 100 Blacks in Law Enforcement Who Care, wants to establish a reformed anti-crime unit that is not based on merely searching as many people as you can in hopes of finding weapons. He wants to create an anti-crime unit that builds trust and relationships with the communities it serves.

Adams has other critics, including members of 100 Blacks in Law Enforcement Who Care. Michael Greys and Noel Leader, co-hosts of Community Cop, are also founding members. They have accused Eric Adams of kowtowing to the Jewish community to the detriment of the black community.

Mayor-elect Adams pretty much promised to continue some of the things that outgoing-mayor Bill de Blasio has instituted, such as the vaccine mandate. He wants to be tough on crime, which is always a red flag for the black community, who feel it will give corrupt police officers carte blanche to further oppress people of African descent.

(Note: The mother of my young neighbor, who passed away from COVID-19, did win her special Senatorial election, as well! She is very well known in the Harlem community.)

Pakistani Military Successfully Disinformed Pakistanis about the Sharia Movement in Swat.


[Military not only blocked this statement but attacked with air strikes and tanks forcing Fazlullah to seek shelter in Afghanistan. Later he was killed there in a US air strike, probably coordinated with Pak military.]

April 12, 2009: The National Peace Jirga leader Inamur Rahman met Maulvi Fazlullah at an unknown place in Swat. The Maulvi told the peace group that his only interest in the struggle has been that Islamic Law [Shari'a] be implemented in Swat. He said that he will no longer fight the Pak army if Shar'ia is implemented. If the Pak army does not put obstacles in the way of Shar'ia, the mujahideen will not even ask for damages for the losses they have suffered at the hands of the Pak army. He said he fully supports the efforts of Maulana Sufi Muhammad for the peaceful implementation of Shar'ia.

He categoically rejected the disinformation campaign by the Pak regime that he is against Pakistan. He said that his loyalty to Pakistan is without question and he and his people will fight to the last drop of their blood for the defense of Pakistan.

[Maulvi Fazlullah fought the Pakistani army to a standstill and created the situation in which Pakistan had to invite his father in law, Maulana Sufi, to head the movement for Shari'a in Swat. He leads the local Taliban and has solved hundreds of law cases in Swat and brought justice to the people of Swat.]




This was another propaganda item which was answered.

April 6, 2009. Tens of thousands of people from all over Swat gathered in Green Square of the capital city called Mingora. The rally organized by the Swat Peace Movement condemned a disinformation video distributed by pro-western groups in Pakistan known as NGO's. The video showed two men holding down a young woman and a third whipping her while a crowd watched and she cried.

The video was rapidly distributed all over Pakistan and pro-western groups quickly rallied in defense of "women's rights" and demanded that Shari'a [Islamic Law] not be implemented in Swat and that Pak military should take action in Swat against the Taliban. Altaf Hussain, the leader of an agent group in Karachi known as MQM, showed great distress at the "violation of women's rights" and called for urgent action against the Taliban. The newly re-instated Chief Justice was enlisted in this cause.

Analysts soon noticed that the accent of the three men in the video were not of the people of Swat. The video was six months old and no one knew who made it, when and how.
The huge rally in Swat condemned the move against Shar'ia and condemned Altaf Hussain's activities carried out from London. Speaker after speaker wanted to know why the NGO's had been silent when atrocities were being committed against the people of Swat [including the army action which left 500,000 people homeless].

Why is Poland so Disturbed?
Serious antisemitic rally.

AP report\. November 14.

WARSAW, Poland (AP) — Israeli and Polish government officials on Saturday condemned an antisemitic incident involving Polish nationalists chanting "Death to Jews" on Poland's Independence Day this week.

Participants at the gathering also burned a copy of a medieval document that offered Jews protection and rights in Polish lands. The public expression of hatred occurred in the central Polish city of Kalisz on Thursday amid holiday celebrations across Poland.

The leaders of the event also referred to LGBT people and "Zionists" as "enemies of Poland" who need to be expelled.

Polish Interior Minister Mariusz Kaminski said Saturday he hoped that "the people who organized the shameful and scandalous assembly in Kalisz on November 11 will suffer legal consequences."

وَآخَرُو¦َ اعْتَرَف¥وا بِذُنُوب¦هِمْ خَلَطُوا عَمَلًا صَالِحًا وَآخَرَ سَيِّئًا عَسَى اللَّهُ أَنْ يَتُوبَ عَلَيْهِ¥ْ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ

Translation...
'And there are others who have acknowledged their sins, they have mixed a deed that was righteous with another that was evil.
Perhaps Allâh will turn unto them in forgiveness.
Surely, Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful'.
(Source~ Qur`an: At -Tauba 9-Ayah # 102)

Narrated By Samura bin Jundab (r.a.)
*PROPHET*ﷺ ~ said...
' Tonight Two Visitors came to me (in my Dream) and took me to a Town built with Gold Bricks and Silver Bricks!
There we met men who... half of their bodies, looked like the most-Handsome human beings you have ever seen, and the other half, the ugliest human beings you have ever seen.
Those two visitors said to those men, 'go and dip yourselves in that river. so they dipped themselves therein and then came to us. their ugliness having disappeared, and they were in the most-handsome shape...{!}
The visitors said... '
The first is the Garden of Eden and that is your dwelling place.'
Then they added...
As for those people who were half ugly and half handsome,
they were those who mixed good deeds and bad deeds!
but...
ALLAH FORGAVE THEM {!}

Hadith of the Week

Narrated by Ibn 'Abbas
'Umar said,
"I am afraid that after a long time has passed, people may say, "We do not find the Verses of the Rajam (stoning to death) in the Holy Book," and consequently they may go astray by leaving an obligation that Allah has revealed. Lo! I confirm that the penalty of Rajam be inflicted on him who commits illegal sexual intercourse, if he is already married and the crime is proved by witnesses or pregnancy or confession." Sufyan added, "I have memorized this narration in this way." 'Umar added, "Surely Allah's Apostle carried out the penalty of Rajam, and so did we after him."

Wisdom
by Imam Badi Ali
November 14

As-slamu alaikum,
Every new breath that Allah allows you to take is not just a blessing but also a Responsibility.

Every breath you take is a second chance.

If you are still breathing, you have a second chance.

Every second we have a second chance to worship and do righteous deed.

Remember That's why it's called a second and not a first.

O Allah help me to use time wisely so I can remember you, thank you, and worship you in the best possible way. Ameen.

"Don't depend too much on anyone in this world because even your own shadow leaves you when you are in darkness."
- Ibn Taymiyyah

Trust Allah. He knows what is best for you and when it's best for you to have it.

Oh Allah, please guide us to trust in your plans. Ameen
