How Should Muslims Decide between Russia and Ukraine?
by Kaukab Siddique, PhD
Many Muslims are touched by the tragic suffering in
Ukraine.
Many other Muslims know that Ukraine is supported by the
western powers and America.
The western powers implanted Israel in the Muslim homeland.
America and Nato bombed and invaded
Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Libya and Somalia. Islamic State
were wiped out by America and NATO. Any armed Islamic group
was a target for America including the people of tribal
areas in Pakistan.
The western powers support brutal dictators and kings in
Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Jordan.
Attempts are underway across Africa and Bangladesh to
undermine Islam by support for homos of many varieties
[lgbtq].
As a result we note Muslims even in far away Indonesia
supportive of Russia\.
China is neutral till now but is committing horrific
cultural genocide against the Muslims of Sinkiang.
Russia has not been against Islam in general after the fall
of the Soviet Union and its failure to subjugate
Afghanistan.
However Russia jumped in to save the murderous regime of
Bashar Assad in Damascus which has committed mass murder and
systematic torture against Muslims with the support of the
Shia regime in Tehran.
The situation for the Muslim ummah seems to be at a
standstill.
The tragedy of the global Muslim nations is that they do not
seek guidance from the Qur'an revealed by Allah with its
interpretation by Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him. They
pick up bits and pieces from the two sources and gradually
they have become not only disunited but fragmented.
One existential source of the problem is the desire to find
support from imaginary "saviors" and from world "powers."
The rulers try to find linkage with America or Russia or
China.

JI staying out of conflict between Ruling Party &
Politicians from the Past.
by Qaiser Sharif
LAHORE- MARCH 19: Jamaat-e-Islami Emir Sirajul Haq has said
the PTI government has lost trust of the masses, adding the
new elections are the way forward to end the prevailing
political instability.
In a statement issued from Mansoorah on Saturday, he also
condemned the threats being issued to the
parliamentarians.
The politics of foul language and abuses could not be
allowed in any civilized society, he said, asking the
political parties to settle their issues through peaceful
democratic and constitutional way.
He said the elections should be held in free and transparent
manners.
Sirajul Haq said the PTI government had failed to deliver in
four years and now instead of talking about performance, the
prime minister and ministers were indulged into blame game
which did not suit to a ruling party. He also criticized the
turncoat culture, saying it had remained a practice in the
country's politics for decades. The absence of ideological
politics, he said, which was not allowed to promote in the
country since its freedom provided basis to the lotacracy,
he added. He said the PTI government was un-natural alliance
and the ruling party itself was a gathering of waderas and
feudal from different political parties. The failure of the
PTI, he said, was written on the wall since its formed
government in 2018.
He asked the opposition and the government to adopt the way
of dialogue to end the crisis which otherwise posing serious
threat to democracy.
He said the country needed to get rid of the status quo and
an Islamic system based on equal opportunities to every
citizen was the solution to the Pakistan's problems. He said
the JI wanted to bring real change and it needed support of
the people for it.
Deputy Chief of Jamaat-e-Islami, Secretary General Milli
Yakjehti Council Liaqat Baloch has said that Islamists of
Pakistan highlight their religious, national and Islamic
character on the occasion of famous Islamic days, Eid,
Ramadhan, Hajj, Zakat and Shab-e Barat. Submission to Allah,
repentance and seeking forgiveness from Allah is a sign of
the life of believers.
The rule of the Divine religion - Islam - is the unwavering
passion of the people. Pakistan's security, prosperity,
stability is in the constitution, supremacy of Qur'an and
Sunnah and justice system. Let the people make their
decision based on the principle of justice to run the
country and make their own destiny.
Liaqat Baloch said that Prime Minister Imran Khan has
practically lost his majority in the National Assembly.
Insurgency and stampede within the party, Imran Khan's body
language and mannerisms are showing that they are using
every undemocratic, unconstitutional, immoral tactic in 2022
to cling to the seat of power like in 2018. The
no-confidence motion has exposed the government and the
opposition. The country is moving towards confrontation. The
attack on Sindh House in Islamabad, abusing minority leaders
is a disgusting game of riot after riot and spreading
anarchy in the country. No political terrorism, extremism,
but a constitutional, democratic, sustainable way has to
protect democracy, the constitution, the judiciary and the
people's right to vote.
Liaqat Baloch said that the sit-ins on public issues of
Jamaat-e-Islami across the country have raised awareness
among the people and political activists. Getting rid of the
outdated, dysfunctional, anti-people system and all its
parts is the way to Pakistan's dignity, sovereignty and
security. Jamaat-e-Islami will carry out a blessed Islamic
democratic parliamentary revolution in Pakistan with
continuous struggle, service to the people and political
democratic principles, clean character.
Welcoming the OIC Foreign Ministers' Conference in
Islamabad, Liaqat Baloch said that the representatives of
the Islamic world should declare their recognition of the
Taliban government in Afghanistan. Announce economic
boycott, announce legislation to thwart US, European, Jewish
and Hindu tactics against Islam and Muslims around the
world, announce a joint policy on defense, economics,
educational, research, science and technology of the Islamic
world, announce a joint strategy on the burning issues faced
by Muslim Ummah around the world.

China-Uyghur Conflict Comes to Cornell
A Cornell event with a member of Congress prompted a walkout
by Chinese students during a discussion about Uyghurs. A
Uyghur student says it was an effort to intimidate her.
By Josh Moody
March 18, 2022
Protesters in Washington, D.C., on March 4 called for
divestment from Uyghur forced labor. A similar effort is
playing out at some U.S. colleges.
Rizwangul NurMuhammad, a Uyghur student at Cornell
University, has been vocal for years about the Chinese
government's detention of her brother and the atrocities
Beijing has committed against the ethnic minority in China.
So when her Chinese classmates jeered and walked out of a
campus event last week after she asked a U.S. congresswoman
about the Uyghur genocide, NurMuhammad saw it as the long
arm of Chinese government influence at play.
The incident occurred at a March 10 colloquium for the
Cornell Institute of Public Affairs, where NurMuhammad is
earning a master's degree in public administration. At the
event, NurMuhammad shared details of her brother's story: he
was detained in 2017, later declared a separatist and hasn't
been heard from since.
NurMuhammad later asked the speaker—Elissa Slotkin, a
Democratic congresswoman from Michigan and a Cornell
graduate—about the lack of sanctions by the U.S.
government as China continues its campaign of human rights
violations against Uyghurs.
"There is a strong understanding in Congress that there is
something terrible going on with the Uyghurs in China: the
forced labor, the human rights violations, the forced
indoctrination," Slotkin responded, joining the event via
Zoom. "Democrats and Republicans actually agree that there
are real problems going on."
The Uyghurs, a largely Muslim minority group heavily
concentrated in Xinjiang Province and long oppressed by the
Chinese government, have faced forced labor, involuntary
sterilization and various other human rights violations.
At Slotkin's first mention of Uyghurs, dozens of students in
the room stood up and walked out, according to a video
reviewed by Inside Higher Ed. Off-camera, an unidentified
voice can be heard saying that Chinese students are
leaving.
"Almost half of the attendees walked out. When they walked
out, some of us noticed that some were booing and taunting
me," NurMuhammad said. "And I actually heard some of them
laughing."
Now NurMuhammad is alleging intimidation, while Chinese
students claim to be the targets of xenophobia. And
Cornell—which has a robust population of students from
China—is stuck in the middle, trying to sort out a
geopolitical clash distilled on campus.
The Fallout
Slotkin showed her support for NurMuhammad, addressing the
issue in a Twitter thread. Former Wisconsin governor Scott
Walker, a Republican, has also signaled support. But at
Cornell, NurMuhammad said, the response has been
disappointing. Statements from administrators have painted
Chinese students as victims and omitted her name and
perspective in emailed statements, she said.
"I would have expected a better response from Cornell, but
that was not the case," she said. "In the first email, they
watered down the genocide to human rights violations, and
then they defended the intimidating actions from Chinese
students, describing it as peaceful protesting."
That email, sent on March 11, was one of several shared with
Inside Higher Ed by a Cornell student. Written by Matt Hall,
the director of the Cornell Institute of Public Affairs, it
emphasized the importance of dialogue and tolerant
conversation.
"At the same time, we must also respect that walkouts are a
legitimate form of protest and an appropriate expression of
disapproval," Hall wrote. "As public leaders, we have a duty
to promote peaceful demonstrations, even for those that we
may disagree with. We must also uphold the principles of
inclusion in voicing opposition; this includes being
respectful and civil toward our colleagues, and not using
social media to cast them as a demographic group or in
derogatory ways."
A subsequent email sent by Hall on Thursday
morning—and shared by the university in lieu of a
statement—acknowledged the "hurt and division" that
occurred following the event.
"I want to directly speak to the uniquely vulnerable
position that our colleague Rizwangul has faced," Hall
wrote. "I apologize for the hurt you have experienced and
regret if my previous message did not reflect a full
appreciation for the complicated dynamics that impact you so
personally. No [Cornell Institute for Public Affairs]
student should feel unsafe or unwelcome."
But some Chinese students suggest that the reason for the
walkout was more complicated.
Though the walkout began as soon as Slotkin mentioned the
mistreatment of Uyghurs, that wasn't the reason students
left, said William Wang, a Chinese student earning a
master's degree in public administration and the president
of the Cornell Public Affairs Society.
"We left today's colloquium because we felt that the
atmosphere in that room was extremely hostile towards us,
and we did not feel that we could participate in any
meaningful discussions whatsoever," Wang said in a letter to
Cornell Institute for Public Affairs leadership.
He wrote that one student noted the high percentage of
Chinese students in the program and asked Slotkin "whether
international students should study public policy in a
democratic country rather than in their home country. As
much as I tried to assume no malevolence [sic] intentions,
as a Chinese international student, I felt uncomfortable
being called out, not to mention the fact that the response
was also revolved around 'Chinese international students'
instead of the entire international student body, which has
always been an integral part of Cornell community."
Wang's letter bears the signatures of dozens of Chinese
students at Cornell.
In an email to Inside Higher Ed, Wang said that Slotkin's
remarks made Chinese students feel unsafe and that they
walked out not over the Uyghur comment but for the sake of
their mental health.
"The colloquium was supposed to be a career development
class that teaches us things related to leadership skills,
team building, etc. Instead, we got a biased, xenophobic,
sinophobic, and American-exceptionalist representative who
talked extensively about how China will become the next
threat to the US as the Soviet Union was decades ago," Wang
said via email.
He described the walkout as "literally the most peaceful and
least threatening form of protesting."
"Quite simply, the [Chinese Communist Party] does not see
its control as ending at China's borders. It sees Confucius
Institutes and Chinese Students and Scholars Associations
(CSSAs) as proxies for controlling discourse on campus
around the world, with Chinese consulates sometimes directly
pressuring these groups to prevent events critical of
Chinese government policies from taking place," Metz said by
email, adding that universities often fear that taking China
on will affect tuition revenue.
Metz said he also works to push universities "to divest from
entities complicit in the genocide of Uyghurs and other
human rights abuses in China." That effort is catching on
with some students.
At Catholic University of America, pressure from students,
who founded an Athenai Institute there, prompted the
administration to audit its endowment to identify and divest
from holdings related to the human rights violations against
the Uyghurs, The Washington Post reported in August
2020.
Catholic University officials did not respond to a request
for comment. Neither did officials at George Washington
University or Georgetown University, where students have
also pressured administrators to take similar actions,
pushing for divestment from companies that have been known
to use forced Uyghur labor. But students at GWU and
Georgetown say the universities have been largely silent on
the issue of divestment.
"All too often, universities have been unwilling to protect
students, especially Uyghurs, Tibetans, and Chinese
dissidents, who face repression," Metz said. "We believe
that divestment—the systematic elimination of
financial dependency on Chinese companies and proxies of the
Chinese state—will reduce the incentive for
universities to take the side of the oppressor and instead
[help them] be moral leaders for their communities and for
the country as a whole."
As NurMuhammad reflects on the issue at Cornell, she feels
that the backlash to her comments extends beyond her campus
and threatens the academic environment in the U.S. She also
points to efforts to intimidate her on social media.
NurMuhammad doesn't know if her brother—whom she
hasn't heard from since his detention in 2017—is
alive, but she plans to keep speaking out about his arrest
and hopes that colleges stop downplaying the violence
against Uyghurs. It's the kind of situation, she suggests,
where there is a clear right and wrong and where there's no
place for neutrality.
"There are no two sides to the genocide that is happening,"
NurMuhammad said.

On March 18, a six-page Jamaat Al-Muslimeen document taken
from New Trend was given to 43 Muslims after juma salat.
Juma khutba simply ignored all that is happening in the
Muslim world. This masjid is notorius for its inability to
say anything critical of the political issues.

Opinion
Forecasting the War in Ukraine.
It was Ignored.
With thanks to Dr. T in Chicago New Trend has received two
important links.
Six years before the war in Ukraine, Prof. John Mearsheimer
spoke in Chicago and traced in detail the limits of Russian
patience and the certainty of war if the NATO powers
insisted on dragging Ukraine into NATO.
The forecasting was detailed but was ignored by America and
Europe.
One reason for ignoring him could be that Prof. Mearsheimer
wrote his famous book The Israel Lobby in which he explained
the coordinated crisscross of the Zionist power structure in
America.
The second important link from Dt. T. is about the famous
intellectual Aleksandr Dugin and his enunciation of the
Fourth Political Theory. He is totally pro-Russia and
probably influenced Putin.
What's important about Dugin is that he is anti-liberal and
denounces liberalism in philosophical terms.
Liberalism is the substance of west European and American
thinking and that makes Dugin very anti-American.
Strangely Dugin is pro-Islam quite openly.
Invitation to Think
India's High Court is Going against almost all of India's
Muslims on Hijab & Modesty
by Dr. Javed Jamil
Full details of today's Judgment in Karnataka High Court are
not known to me but there appear to be several positions
that need to be challenged in Supreme Court.
First, the position taken by the HC that Hijab is not an
essential part of Islam appears to be based on the opinion
of some liberal "Islamic" scholars or some "Muslim" figures
in big positions who in their quest for recognition in
certain quarters, tend to introduce "liberal" elements in
Islamic teachings. The Court needs to be told that in India
(like any other Muslim country), the overwhelming majority
of the people belong to certain schools of thought and they
are guided in their views by the positions taken by these
schools. In India, for example, the overwhelming percentage
of Muslims belongs to one of these three categories: Sunni
Hanfi (Deobandi and Bareilvi) dominant in most parts of the
country, Sunni Shafei dominant in Southern India and Shia.
Ahle Hadith are also there in significant numbers. All these
schools of thought are unanimous in their view that Hijab
includes covering of Head, bosom and other parts of the body
though they may differ about covering the face. The Court
should have given consideration to their view rather than
that of the minuscule majority. Ultimately, it is the
personal ideology of the individuals who want to wear Hijab
which is important.
Second, often the argument of "Hijab or Kitab" is being used
as if both are opposite to each other. Why not both
together? It is like saying: you can do only one or two good
things and not many. There are numerable women who have
achieved big educational successes in their education. In
South India specifically, most of the Muslim women either
wear Burqa or cover their heads. In my University in
Mangalore, which is primarily a medical university, majority
of Muslim girls doing MBBS, MD, MS or other allied courses
wear Hijab. "Hijab or Kitab" is a slogan aimed at
blackmailing Muslim girls and force them to give up their
Hijab.
Third, what is to be understood is that Islamic Hijab has
three parts: (1) What is prohibited (Haram or Mamnu) (2)
What is Obligatory (Fardh) and (3) What is Desirable even if
not obligatory (Mustahab).
See the following verse:
"And tell the believing women to lower their gaze and
protect their private parts and not to show off their
adornment except only that which is apparent , and to draw
their veils all over Juyubihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces,
necks and bosoms)." [al-Nur 24:31]
In these verses "not to show off their adornment" mainly
covers the Prohibited Part and "to draw their veils all over
Juyubihinna" covers the Obligatory part. While indulging in
a Haram acts as well as not performing obligatory acts are
sins in Islam, indulging in Haram part often invites worldly
punishment as well. One may not be punished in the world for
not offering prayers or fasting but one will be punished for
indulging in illicit relationships or drinking alcohol.
Now see the following part"
"And as for women past childbearing who do not expect
wedlock, it is no sin on them if they discard their (outer)
clothing in such a way as not to show their adornment. But
to refrain (i.e. not to discard their outer clothing) is
better for them. And Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower."
[al-Nur 24:60]
"But to refrain (i.e. not to discard their outer clothing)
is better for them" represents Desirable (Mustahab) but not
an obligatory act.
Also see the following verse:
"O Prophet, enjoin your wives and your daughters and the
believing women, to draw a part of their outer coverings
around them. It is likelier that they will be recognised and
not molested. Allah is Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.."
[al-Ahzab 33:59]
There may be different views in different Islamic sects
regarding the covering of face (which is obligatory near
some and Desirable near others) but there are no two views
regarding the covering of Head and the rest of the body.
It will be too much to expect from modern day courts that
they will consider modesty and ban on all forms of nakedness
as an important element in creating a safe and secure
society. But in a country like India, where Secularism does
not mean negation of religion but equal respect to all
religions, not allowing girls students to cover their heads
in the name of uniformity cannot be a good commentary on
India's secular credentials. In that case, turban, kirapn,
tilak and teekas should also be banned. We need to practice
equality, not uniformity. Unfortunately, Indian intellectual
classes are now bowing in increasing number to Western
concepts of "Freedom of Choice". It has already
decriminalized adultery and homosexually, and in near future
marriage before 18 can also be officially banned. While
marriage before that age will become illegal, sex will
remain illegal, while having another wife is already illegal
except in Muslims, relations outside marriage have become
legal. No amount of statistics showing the hugely disastrous
effects of all these practices on health and life will
convince the "Modern" intellectuals that religious morality
is far more health and life protective than the so-called
Modern Morality.
The judgment can also adversely affect the educational level
in a community, especially girl education.
What looks ominous is that the days ahead appear to be truly
full of turmoil for the safety of India's brand of
secularism. Muslim community is grief stricken as well as
angry. They feel they are being marginalized and their
sentiments ignored. While just because a community feels
hurt on the slaughtering of cow, cow meat is banned for all
communities, the emotional component of the girl students of
a particular community, involved in following a religious
duty, which they consider to be an act of modesty, and is in
truth the first line of defence against molestation and
other undesirable activities, is being totally ignored
despite the fact that it has nothing to do with other
communities.
The Supreme Court should not only stay the Karnataka High
Court Order but should also provide an interim relief to the
Muslim girls at least till July especially because most of
the exams are conducting the coming few months and if they
are not allowed, it is going to result in a loss of one
academic year.

[Two items from Middle East Monitor, March 19.]
Rachel Corrie: Symbol of Palestinian Resistance.
The Israeli murder of US peace activist Rachel Corrie was
marked on 16 March, 2022, the 19th anniversary of her death.
Along with eight others, Corrie acted as a human shield to
prevent Israeli bulldozers from demolishing Palestinian
homes in Gaza.
Corrie was born on 10 April, 1979, in Olympia, Washington.
She dedicated her life to human rights, primarily defending
Palestinian rights.
In 2003, she engaged with members of the International
Solidarity Movement, a pro-Palestinian NGO, to protest the
Israeli demolition of Palestinian homes in the southern Gaza
city of Rafah.
On 16 March, she stood in front of an Israeli bulldozer,
staging a peaceful protest to protect the home of a
Palestinian family from demolition.
She held a loudspeaker in her hand and called on the driver
of the Israeli bulldozer to refrain from demolishing the
Palestinian home, but he continued, crushing her to
death.
Palestinians received news of her murder with grief and
horror, calling her a "martyr". Since then, Palestinians
have organised an annual sports championship to mark the
Israeli murder of Corrie.
A massive mural of Corrie was painted on a wall nearby where
she was murdered.
Israeli Raids on Preachers inside Prisons.
Palestinian prisoners at the Israeli Al-Naqab prison are
angry with the Israel Prison Service after preachers were
put into solitary confinement, the Palestinian Prisoners
Club (PPC) reported on Friday.
The preachers were put into solitary confinement after
delivering Friday speeches during which they spoke about the
planned hunger strike slated for 25 March.
The Israel Prison Service requested assistance from the
Israeli Special Forces to crack down on the prisoners, who
banged on their cell doors in protest, chanting "Allahu
Akbar".
According to the PPC, since Thursday, Al-Naqab Prison has
witnessed tension that started when the Israeli forces
raided two cells and attacked prisoners.
The PPC said that the prisoners are preparing for a hunger
strike on 25 March to protest the new restrictions imposed
by the Israel Prison Service.
