The Innocent Prophet - Official Trailer - YouTube - 0 views

  •  
    "Published on Nov 10, 2012 (Slightly delayed) Dear friends Yesterday I found the news in media about high terror alert in Belgium over the movie "The Innocent Prophet" which I planned to release on 14th December 2012. Behind making this movie my soul objective was to reveal the other side of reality of Muhammad and Islam, which I think, is a noble cause for the humanity and is also my right of freedom of expression. But I never had intentions to incite violence or offend religious sentiments deliberately. I don't want people to have fear in their hearts or governments to apply high terror alert in their countries because of me. I don´t want to be remembered as a man who is responsible for loss of lives and properties. That is why I have decided to postpone temporarily the release of movie until I show it first to the authorities and get the assurance that there is nothing in this movie which doesn´t fall under the right of freedom of expression and that my movie will not cause any kind of loss to humanity. The necessary modification will be also made if requested by the authorities. But the delay doesn´t mean that I am afraid of Islamic violence, neither have I lost my right of freedom of expression. It´s all about the respect which I have in my heart towards Europe which is my family, and my deep love for Spain which is my home. I apologize to the Belgian people for the inconvenience they are facing because of my movie plan. I assure them that I will never do anything which hurt them. But on the other hand they should also understand that if we lose our right of freedom of expression, we lose our democracy and western values. I will always stand firmly with my opinion that Islam is an extreme danger to the society and we should make aware people about its whole reality, but of course not on the price of human lives. I will be back to you soon with the new release date after consulting with the authorities. Please keep in touch with me on: www.mundosinislam

    "Muhammad Tahir ul-Qadri, a leading scholar of Sufism, the tradition within Islam that focuses on peace and tolerance, isn't the first Islamic teacher to denounce acts of terrorism.\nBut Qadri's 600-page judgment, or fatwa, is among the harshest denouncements of the theological arguments used by militant groups like al-Qaeda.\n"Whatever these terrorists are doing, it's not martyrdom," said Qadri on Tuesday."

Tahir ul-Qadri and the difficulty of reporting on fatwas | Analysis & Opinion | Reuters - 0 views

  •  
    "It never was and may never be easy to report about fatwas for a world audience. This point was driven home once again today when a prominent Islamic scholar presented to the media his new 600-page fatwa against terrorism and suicide bombing. Muhammad Tahir ul-Qadri is a Pakistani-born Sufi scholar whose youth workshops fostering moderation and understanding in Britain had already caught our attention. His effort to knock down any and every argument in favour of violence is certainly welcome. But the back story to this event is so complicated that it's hard to report on the fatwa without simply ignoring many important parts of this back story."

Ad war erupts over meaning of 'jihad' in U.S. - 0 views

  •  
    "An advertising war has erupted over just what the Muslim word "jihad" means in America and why it's important not to let the term be sugarcoated. And the latest volley in the battle is both sly and stunning. The most recent flare-up began with a controversial series of advertisements from the American Freedom Defense Initiative on New York subway station clocks. The ads depicted the burning towers of 9/11 and a Quran quote: "Soon shall We cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers" (3:151)."

Switching Sides: Inside The Enemy Camp, Bob Simon Talks To A Former Terrorist Commander... - 0 views

  • "So now that's why you're trying to convert them, to use a word, you're trying to covert them back to what you see as the truth path of Islam?" Simon asks.
  • "Because you feel guilty for what you taught them in the past?" Simon asks.
  • "In the past, you taught them how to use weapons, and now you're teaching them the true path of Islam?" Simon asks.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • "Yes, correct. Because I realize that what I did before is wrong," Abas says.
  • Abas tried to right that wrong when he took on his former teacher and the leader of Jemaah Islamiyah, Abu Bakar Bashir, who was on trial for having approved of the Bali bombings. When Abas began testifying, he was shouted down and a mob forced him from the courtroom.
  • Hunted by radical Muslims in Indonesia, Abas knows he's a marked man and in a very dangerous situation.
  • "This is my life," he tells Simon.
  •  
    But Abas' contribution is not limited to undercover work. He is at the heart of the government's de-radicalization program, which is all about persuasion, talking to university students, combating the dogma taught in religious schools, and most important, trying to turn terrorists in the prisons.

BBC NEWS | World | Asia-Pacific | The Bali jihadist now on a peace mission - 0 views

  • "Some of them call me traitor, infidel," he said, adding that he often received threatening text messages. "I'm taking a risk, but I'm not afraid."
  • "He's not a traitor. He's helping his friends. How can we convert people to Islam through violence?"
  • "They are tempting people away from their faith with dollars, and trying to lead other weaker people astray. They will be judged by God."
  •  
    "These are my friends, my students," he said. "I trained some of them... I've visited almost all jails where there are detainees in terrorist cases." But Abbas was not here to plot new attacks. Instead he had come to try to persuade his friends to follow his example and renounce violence.
