Pakistani Cyber Armies Hacking Indian Websites, Using Twitter, Facebook And YouTube To Cause Ethnic Conflicts In India

दीने इस्लाम के व्यापक विचार में सभी तौहीदी धर्म शामिल हैं

उलमा उपरोक्त में दिए गए नतीजे को आयत 3:85 के बयान का हवाला देकर इससे इन्कार की कोशिश कर सकते हैं: "और जो कोई इस्लाम के सिवा किसी और दीन को चाहेगा तो वो उससे कभी स्वीकार नहीं किया जायेगा, और वो आखिरत में नुक्सान उठाने वालों में से होगा"। पारंपरिक विद्वान इस बयान को इसके तुरंत बाद की आयत 3:83-84 से असम्बद्ध करते हैं जो स्पष्ट रूप से ऐलान करती है और कुरान के वैश्विक संदेश सुस्पष्ट तरीके से पेश करती है: "क्या ये अल्लाह के दीन के सिवा कोई और दीन चाहते हैं और जो कोई भी आसमान और ज़मीन में है उसने खुशी से या लाचारी से (बहरहाल) उसी की फरमाँबरदारी अपनाई है और सब उसी की तरफ लौटाए जाएंगे"। [e]

The Broader Notion of Din Al-Islam Is Inclusive Of All Monotheistic Faiths

The Ulama may attempt to refute the foregoing conclusion (in bold) by citing the statement of the verse 3:85: "If anyone seeks other than Islam as a din (religion), it will not be accepted of him, and in the hereafter he will be among the losers." Traditional scholarship disconnects the verse from its immediately preceding verses 3:83-84, which categorically declare that "all in the heavens and on earth have submitted (asslama) (to God), willingly or unwillingly" (3:83) and expounds Qur'anic universalism quite unambiguously: 

Why is Polygamy Allowed in Islam? How is it Best Practiced?

Give orphans their property, do not replace their good things with the bad, and do not consume their property with your own. That is a serious crime. If you fear you will not deal justly by the orphans, marry of the women, who seem good to you, two or three or four; and if you fear that you cannot do justice (to so many) then one (only) or the captives that your right hands possess. Thus it is more likely that you will not do injustice (4:2-3). [e]

World Hijab Day: Why head-cover?

Yesterday was the tenth anniversary of World Hijab Day, ironically started when the Muslim women's head-cover was banned in France in 2002. The concept of head-covering for women is quite misunderstood both in the West as well as amongst some Muslims. A number of years ago, Sydney Morning Herald published a great article by the feminist Naomi Wolf exploring the motivation of wearing a veil among Muslim women. The author recognized that Muslims differentiate between private and public life when it comes to sexuality. Modesty is a cherished value for both men and women in public. In an Islamic society, partners exclusively belong to each other. Explaining the concept, Ms. Wolf wrote: [e]

Coping With Critics Of Moderate Islam

It will not do to lash out at critics of Islam from either side of the growing divide. If we want moderate Islam to survive even till the end of the 21st century, not to speak of the present millennium or beyond, we have to urgently come together and brainstorm. This is what New Age Islam is for. It has already brought many thinking Muslims from all over the world together. Let us stay together and think together. Let us feel grateful for the gift of some articulate critics. They give us an opportunity to try articulating our own ideas. We may passionately believe in something and yet not be able to express that with any degree of eloquence. We need sounding boards. God has given us a few. Let us use that. Who knows we may bring some of them back to the fold of moderate Islam. [e]

Does Love Exist in Islam?

Salam! I want to ask if in Islam "love" exists, because many non-Muslims claim that love does not exist in Islam; it promotes hatred between people and Allah is not a loving God. [e]

Science vs Islam — Syed Kamran Hashmi

At the same time, like any other world-religion, Muslims also get intimidated by the technological advances and scientific developments of the last few centuries. They realise that this progress has changed the entire meaning of human existence in modern times. They also understand its impact on religion that has suffered tremendously. Having lost its importance in everyday life all over the world, it is essentially absent in the western lifestyle. [e]

Islamophobia as an Integral Part of the Political Platform

The general mood in the United States has grown increasingly intolerant towards Muslims. Charlotte Wiedemann was in New York and spoke with Imam Talib Abdur-Rashid, Afro-American and President of the Islamic Leadership Council, on the mood in this election year and about his criticism of some Muslims for what he sees as opportunism Imam, you stood on the street with a sign that said "Muslims demand equal rights!" Against what were you directing your protest? [e]

I am not a Sunni or Shia but a Muslim, We are united Muslims

Let me just start out by saying this, it is a mistake(in my opinion) to call ourselves Sunni or Shia. "It is He (Allah) who has named you MUSLIMS.." [22:78] "And how would you disbelieve, while unto you are recited the Verses of Allah, and among you is His Messenger (Muhammad SAW)? And whoever holds firmly to Allah, (i.e. follows Islam Allah's Religion, and obeys all that Allah has ordered, practically), then he is indeed guided to a Right Path. O you who believe! Fear Allah (by doing all that He has ordered and by abstaining from all that He has forbidden) as He should be feared. [Obey Him, be thankful to Him, and remember Him always], and die not except in a state of Islam (as Muslims) with complete submission to Allah. [e]

Pakistani Cyber Armies Hacking Indian Websites, Using Twitter, Facebook And YouTube To Cause Ethnic Conflicts In India

In recent years, a number of Pakistani hacker groups have come to the notice of the Indian government for their continuing attacks on Indian websites, and, most recently, for their role in using social media networks to trigger a mass exodus from major Indian cities by people of northeastern Indian ethnic origin. India has expressed concern that the use of social networking websites by Pakistani groups could trigger ethnic conflicts in India. This paper will examine some key Pakistani cyber groups and the nature of their anti-India activities in recent years, revealing also how their motives are underpinned by antisemitism and by a sense of global Islamism. [e]
