Communism has stamped its mark on the 20th century-a mark of aggression and cruelty, bloodshed and tears. Historians have estimated that its ideology has caused the death of 120 million people since the Russian Revolution of 1917. These casualties include not only soldiers killed on battlefields, but citizens murdered by their own governments. The whole world has seen the pitiless slaughter carried out by Communist leaders. One hundred million men and women, from the elderly to young people and infants, lost their lives to this cold, hard, savage ideology. Communist regimes have deprived tens of millions of their most basic rights and freedoms, ejecting people from their homes and systematically subjecting them to famines, slavery in labor camps and imprisonment. Millions have been the targets of Communist guerilla groups and terrorist organizations, and still others have lived in the fear of becoming targets for their bullets.


What are this ideology's roots? Where was Communism born? How did such a cruel, bloodthirsty worldview find adherents and supporters throughout the world? Why did it come to power and flourish, dragging millions in its wake? How did it come to an end, with the collapse of the Soviet Union? Or has it really ended, or does it still threaten every country on earth?


Does this serious threat still exist in the world? Regrettably, yes. Communism is waiting in ambush!


This well of bloodshed, which has cost the lives of 120 million, still exists. Communism has covered the top of the well to conceal its insidious activities and camouflaged its surroundings, setting it as a trap for the unwary. Its outward appearance may have changed, its adherents' names may be different, but it still awaits an opportunity to wreak pain on humanity once again, as it has in the past. This book's vitally important purpose is to rip the mask off this insidious and growing threat and reveal the true face of the Communist ideology that has caused so much pain and trouble.

British Pakistani Youths


Professor Yunus Samad of Bradford University delivered a lecture at Pakistan High Commission on the issues of the Pakistani youth. He criticised the Muslim community, Muslim parents, Masajid and Imams for all the problems of the Muslim youths.


In my view British education system and native teachers are responsible, who have no respect for Islamic values, languages and Muslim community. British education is the home of institutional racism. The schools and the teaching profession never tried to meet the needs and demands of Pakistani or Muslim children. They need a different approach in education. The native teachers do not have a clue of their mother tongues and values. There is a negative co-relation between school and home. The children come to schools with different values which have no place in English schools. They are victim of bullying through out their school life. The result is that they suffer from Identity Crises, making them mis-fit not only for the Muslim community but also for the host society. Majority of them leave schools with low grades or without any qualification. They suffer from mental, emotional and personality problems due to the fact that they have been mis-educated and de-educated by a system which does not understand them. In my view British education is responsible for all the problems of Pakistani youths, and not the parents, Masajid or Imams.


Pakistani bilingual children need state funded Muslim schools with bilingual Muslim teachers as role models. They need to learn Standard English to follow the National Curriculum and to go for higher studies and research to serve humanity. They need to learn Arabic to recite and understand the Holly Quran. They need to learn Urdu language to study and enjoy the beauty of Urdu literature and poetry and to keep in touch with their cultural roots. Most of Islamic literature and poetry is in Urdu and without learning Urdu they are unable to understand the spirit of Islam.

Annually since 1998 in the grounds of the Islamic University of Madinatul Uloom al Islamiyah, Kidderminster, United Kingdom, a conference has been taking place entitled <b>‘Youth Tarbiyah Conference.’</b>


This conference aims to reform the Muslim youth by providing them with an opportunity to benefit from the intellectual input and spiritual guidance of the <i>Ulama</i> over a period of three days in the serene and tranquil surroundings of Madinatul Uloom. The University is situated in the rural countryside of Kidderminster.


To get away from the hustle and bustle of our daily lives for a few days and spend time in a purely Islamic environment is a great means of strengthening ones <i>Iman</i> (belief), increasing ones knowledge and benefiting from the company of the pious. Last year over eight thousand people attended the conference, making this probably the largest Islamic gathering in the United Kingdom.


Over the years <i>Ulama</i> from around the globe have delivered lectures on a wide range of topics. Some of the topics covered during last year’s conference included:


- Two Civilisations


- Health & Islam


- Muslims in Europe


- Repentance


- The Gift of Youth


The full program for this year’s conference will be available shortly, so please visit www.alkawtharacademy.org or www.inter-islam.org for the latest details


There is no charge for the conference with accommodation & meals provided free. All you need to do is bring yourself and your bedding.


While you are there you will be able to purchase a large variety of Islamic goods including audio lectures, books, clothing and itr etc. Additional food and drink stalls will be open throughout the conference.


Please note that this is a men only conference. A conference for women was held at the same venue on the 17th July 2005.


For those who are unable to attend, the entire conference will be broadcast live on www.inter-islam.org.

How to make your sabr stronger?


wassalam

Asalaamu alikum, I recieved this in the email this morning from Islamicity and thought it was beneficial reminder as strengthening the Ummah begins with ourselves. Allah bless us all, forgive our shortcomings and help us all to be better Muslims, Ameen.


<b>Avoid Fault Finding
</b>


As people of Faith, we have the duty of commanding good and forbidding evil. We thus engage ourselves, as social beings, in improving ourselves and working towards being instruments in improving the world we live in. Our Faith behooves us not to search for faults in others and we would do well to heed the advice of our Beloved Prophet : "Part of being a good person is minding your own business."


While the purpose of commanding good and forbidding evil is to correct and restore; fault-finding inevitably leads to undermining the character of people and sometimes to destroying relationships. Prophet Muhammad said: "The worst of people are those engaged in slandering others, those who ruin relationships between dear ones who try to find fault with innocent people."


The Prophet also admonished us that "when you pursue the faults of others, you corrupt them" and warned that "those who unduly pursue the shortcomings of others will have their own faults exposed."


<b>Fault-finding is the habit of the miserable
</b>


Confucius said: "the great person calls to attention the good points in others while the miserable person calls to attention the defects in others." (Analects 12:16). That is perhaps why losers can easily say, "something is wrong" and winners usually say, "how can I correct it". Why losers say, "why don't you do this?" and winners usually say, "here is something I can do."


Fault-finders normally tell others about someone's faults and rarely have the guts to face people; fitting the description of dhul-wajhayn (two-faced) which the Prophet Muhammad assigned to troublemakers and hypocrites. Fault-finders also tend to be miserable themselves, lacking self-esteem; and since they focus so much on blaming others, they become resentful; and rather than cherish people, tend to develop a desire to undermine and discredit people.


<b>Negativity consumes a person
</b>


The negative feelings that a fault-finder harbors regarding others eventually consumes the person and this negativity eventually becomes part of the fault-finder's character. Prophet Muhammad therefore advised us "Refrain from holding bad opinions of people."


<b>Deflecting one's own shortcomings
</b>


One of the common ways through which people deflect their own shortcomings and do not face up to their own faults is to blame others. The faults we see may well not be in what we are looking at, but rather in our looking. Prophet 'Isa/Jesus is reported to have said; "why do you look at the little speck in your brother's eye and forget the plank in your own eye". Hadrat 'Ali said: "The worst of people is the person who searches for faults in others while being blind to his own faults". Martin Luther King rightly said: "the highest form of maturity is self inquiry".


<b>Watch your Heart, your Emotions and your Tongue
</b>


Speech is projection of thoughts and emotions; the content of speech reflects the culture of the heart, so consider carefully how you feel about others, why you feel the way you feel and what you say about people. Prophet Muhammad said: "None of your faith is correct unless your heart is upright and your heart will not be rectified until your tongue is in order". That is why Allah states in the Quran "speak what is correct, your actions will be rectified and your sins will be forgiven". Since virtually all fault-finding is conveyed verbally, we must be careful of the power of the tongue since wise people caution the fact that affliction caused by the tongue is more severe than the harm caused by the sword. The Prophet also provided a basic rule of good character when he responded to a question regarding salvation. He replied: "It is necessary for you to control your tongue and weep for your own faults".


The prayer of the Prophet is the most appropriate expression for one who introspects and genuinely wishes to be a catalyst for a better world: "O Allah, forgive that which I did secretly and what I did publicly; What I did inadvertently and what I did deliberately; What I did knowingly and what I did out of ignorance".


Always reflect on this advice of the Prophet : "glad tidings to the person more concerned about his own faults than bothering about the faults of others".

It is said that we are all born as Muslims, and that some take time to hear the call. In that light I ask all of you to consider the horror of even one life lost to terror no matter what belief you follow.


And I truly wish we could create a complete list of all that have died at the hands of muslim, christian, jewish, or other BAD men who have subverted the word PEACE for 10000 years.

How Jewish Extremist Converted to Islam


6/20/2005


Tehran, IQNA : June 20, 2005 — Ex Jewish extremist submits to magnificent


glory of Islam and embraces the true religion.


With his tattoo of the Star of David hidden from view, Mohammed Al Mahadi


prays to Allah in his new West Bank home near the radical Jewish settlement


where he spent much of the last decade.


His recent arrival in the Shaab neighbourhood of the flashpoint town of


Hebron is the latest twist in the extraordinary life story of Mahadi, who


was born to Jewish parents 37 years ago in the former Soviet republic of


Azerbaijan.


The man, then known as Mikhail Shirovsky, moved to Israel soon after the


Soviet authorities allowed Jews to emigrate in the 1980s.


After serving in the army as a fitness instructor, he was drawn to Jewish


extremism and decided to move to the hardline settlement of Kiryat Arba in


1995 soon after one of its residents, Baruch Goldstein, shot dead 29 Muslim


worshippers in Hebron’s Tomb of the Patriarchs.


But an unlikely friendship with a Palestinian garage owner led him to first


question his values, then to convert to Islam before marrying a Muslim wife


from his native land. Mahadi said he has been touched by the warmth of the


welcome that he has received from his new neighbours in spite of his


background.


“I was a radical settler and an enemy to them,” he said in an interview at


his new home. “They have treated me like a brother and have offered me all


the help that I need.” After his conversion to Islam and marriage to Sabena,


Mahadi’s life among the Jews of Kiryat Arba became increasingly fraught.


He says that his wife and four children were ostracized and harassed by his


one-time friends.


“I was attacked in the settlers in Kiryat Arba many times. They stoned my


house and wrote grafitti against me, saying I’m a Muslim and had to leave.


“Every time I traveled anywhere, we were harassed because my wife was


wearing a veil.


“I was also often interrogated by the Israel security services, but all that


I care about is that my children continue on the same religious path as me.”


Maadi admits that the man responsible for attracting him to Islam was garage


owner Waleed Zaloum, whose business is located just outside Kiryat Arba. Two


strong-headed men, they used to argue for hours about the merits of their


respective faiths as Zaloum recalls. “From the start I felt there was good


inside this man, even though I was not expecting it from a settler from


Kiryat Arba,” he said.


“The issue became a challenge to me and I told him: ‘Either you convert me


to Judaism or I convert you to Islam’, but after six months of discussions


and meetings it was him who ended up being converted.” Mahadi said he had


been persuaded to renounce Judaism for intellectual reasons. “I discovered


that there were too many contradictions in Judaism and at the same time I


realised that Islam is the religion of truth and wisdom,” he said. “I


converted because I am seeking truth because of religious reasons and not


for any other motive.”


He is unable to shake off all his Jewish heritage. Tattoos of the Star of


David and of a Menorah (a seven-branched Jewish candelabrum) are etched


indelibly on his hands. But Mahadi harbours no doubts and his new faith,


saying that he is not interested in the formation of a secular Palestinian


state. “What I want is an Islamic caliphate in Palestine and, God willing,


Jerusalem will be the capital of this state,” he said.

Dear Brothers and sisters.....
