I think as muslims we should be careful not to cast nasturtiums willy-nilly. This particularly applies to the OBL 9/11 Controversy.
[i:6fae25b187]"I have already said that I am not involved in the 11 September attacks in the United States. As a Muslim, I try my best to avoid telling a lie. I had no knowledge of these attacks, nor do I consider the killing of innocent women, children and other humans as an appreciable act. Islam strictly forbids causing harm to innocent women, children and other people. Such a practice is forbidden even in the course of a battle.".....[/i:6fae25b187]OBL (see post one in thread above)
[b:6fae25b187]O ye who believe! Avoid suspicion as much (as possible): for suspicion in some cases is a sin: And spy not on each other behind their backs. Would any of you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother? Nay, ye would abhor it...But fear Allah: For Allah is Oft-Returning, Most Merciful. 49:12[/b:6fae25b187]
We as muslims are in the midst of a big fitnah and our eimaan is being sieved.
[b:6fae25b187]Do men think that they will be left alone on saying, "We believe", and that they will not be tested? 29:02[/b:6fae25b187]
There are many clear Ayat warning us not to take the Kafir as Auliya. When you open your english Qur'an tafsir one of the definitions of an Auliya is an adviser. So if you're going to take the word of Dubya and company (look at their record) over a muslim...hhhmmm.
Particularly regards one who has walked away from a half billion dollar duunya lifestyle to sleep in the mud and cold damp caves........for Allah S/T.
