The Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, reported in a Sacred Hadith that if we want to be close to God, we should visit the sick and feed the needy. On the Day of Resurrection, Allah will say, ?O son of Adam, I fell ill and you did not visit me.? The person will say, ?O Lord, how could I visit you when You are the Lord of the worlds?? He will say, ?Did you not know that So-and-so fell ill and you did not visit him? If you had visited him, you would have found Me with him .? From http//makkah.wordpress.com/2010/01/17/muslim-countries-and-muslims-team-up-with-other-countries-and-faith-based-communities-to-help-haiti/ Objectively; compared to Sunni's authorized book of rumors, I found much more good things + wisdom in the Gospels. The so-called 'rumor' / 'hadith' attributed to Muhammad above is actually a slight modification to the following story found in the Gospel of Matthew. Matthew. 2531-46. "Final Judgement, The Sheep and The Goat Parable". "When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with Him, then He will sit on His glorious throne. And all the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them from one another, as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats; He will put the sheep on His right, and the goats on His left. Then the King will say to those on His right, 'Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.' Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry, and feed You, or thirsty, and give You drink? And when did we see You a stranger, and invite you in, or naked, and clothe You? And when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?' And the King will answer and say to them, 'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.' Then He will also say to those on His left, 'Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry, and you gave Me nothing to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me nothing to drink; I was a stranger, and you did not invite Me in; naked, and you did not clothe Me; sick, and in prison, and you did not visit Me.' Then they themselves will also answer, saying, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not take care of You?' Then He will answer them, saying, 'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.' And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."

FAQ 21 SCANDAL IN PUBLIC SPACE - "THE BRIDGE" DOCUMENTATION 3 / 23 21/01/2010 FOREWORD "FREE MINDS - DEMOCRATIC REFORM IN ISLAM" is one Initiative Reform Movement in Islam, which exist in M?nster only since November 2009. It is mainly threatened by Islamist_innen directly and indirectly, because in this their lived Islamism and fundamentalism of any modernization process reject radical Islam and to combat such tendencies immediately. To throw she did not with bombs and kill their Gegner_innen. Above all, they need to not run the risk that if the initiative is also easier in a subtle way presented may be blocked, as in the case of one-sided and partisan Procedure of the Rector and "The Bridge" is happening. The thematic focus of "Free Minds" does seem to be secondary, is on End of this report, however, presented in detail because it ultimately provides a Lead role in the questionable and scandalous events plays. Ignoring the justified worries, concerns expressed and specific requests for support of the initiative, and the immediately following it, unilateral approach and disqualified in the event "Open letter to the principal's office" on 11.01.2010 and the striking party taking a scandal and should not be the public are withheld. It was held in October 2009 a single conversation between Mr. Joachim Sommer, Head of the International Center of the University, "The Bridge", and a Substitute, Elif S?z1, instead, by the addition to the organizational capabilities Attainment and regional implementation of the initiative will also detail on already Send problems, conflicts and experiences were discussed. After this Interview had the group members, and also non-critical Muslim_innen Muslim_innen a quiet and good conscience, and were beyond the spatial Ways very pleased. No later than the "Free Minds," their weekly discourse Meetings regularly attack was increased and their activities, they met within the area "The Bridge" in the form of allegations, indirect threats, psychological pressures from Islamist_innen within the Bridge Narrenfreiheit enjoy considerable resistance. Islamist_innen who love too from their friends and so-called bridge-moderate Muslim_innen in protecting be taken and their concerns (the desire to remove disreputable Free posters of Mindler_innen) were able to achieve well. This possibility offering the work in "The Bridge". Those who regularly is in the bridge, knows what is meant. Although the majority of Assistants extremely nice, cooperative, are conscientious and competent, one should not exclude the possibility that perhaps one or more person (s) their freedoms in the activity misuse or abuse! 1 For security reasons Elif S?z occurs only with a pseudonym! SCANDAL IN PUBLIC SPACE - "THE BRIDGE" DOCUMENTATION 4 / 23 21/01/2010 Since this incident a scandal began to grow, as both the reasonable suspicion as well as the substantive criticisms have been completely ignored and excluded. Since we started a new initiative to the institution "University of Muenster in all of our rhetoric, legal and financial capabilities significantly weaker position to take, and under these circumstances and after all the unpleasant events fair "process" to the truth excluded, are all important points in our view, reports, Documents will be disclosed to third parties to make a better picture can. We ask in this report also on the President's Office, for the unprofessional and conspicuously destructive approach to the affected Muslim_innen critical to apologize to the contents of the "open letter" to take and respond to the incident position! Even in the case of manifest error, and proven our points of criticism remain public, dismissive reply, the overall approach the bridge line and the consequent silence of the "University of Muenster" for this Case, a scandal. SCANDAL IN PUBLIC SPACE - "THE BRIDGE" DOCUMENTATION 5 / 23 21/01/2010 Auftaktveranstaltung OF FREE MINDS Launched by Free Minds "and the Autonomous Student Council's Women's Unit of the University of Muenster one Event on the series of events in the coming conceptual Summer 2010th The semester program should be content and organization are presented. These 60 posters and 600 flyers were printed on both sides printed and hung or designed and distributed. In some public accessible places posters were displayed (as above demolished) and removed. This was so far no problem, since we always safely nachplakatieren could. Suspicion was that our posters (also from Free Minds - Generally below) from the closed windows of the "bridge" as much as four times SCANDAL IN PUBLIC SPACE - "THE BRIDGE" DOCUMENTATION 6 / 23 21/01/2010 disappeared! Each time the posters were to directly appeal hung. In one particular case, Mr. Sommer was personally present and has witnessed the emotionally agitated conversation with bridge-auxiliaries will. He belles there with a diplomatic and indifferent smile. Thus, it seemed pointless to the Board again to try to directly addressed. SCANDAL IN PUBLIC SPACE - "THE BRIDGE" DOCUMENTATION 7 / 23 21/01/2010 OPEN LETTER TO THE RECTORATE From Free Minds [email protected] To [email protected] CC [email protected]; [email protected] Sent Saturday, 9 January 2010, 173335 Clock Subject Open Letter Appeal, anxiety and urgent request Dear Summer, Madam Rector and Professor Nelles, Madam Vice-Rector and Dr. Ravenstein, We are a growing initiative, "Free Minds - Democratic Reform in Islam "and would like to first for the organizational and moral support in particular to thank Mr Achim summer, the beginning of WiSe 2009 in a conversation Vetraulich the premises of the International Center "The Bridge" is available for the project presented. Unfortunately, we have to since the start of the initiative against strong Attempts to block fundamentalist Muslim_innen defend to us all imaginable, subtle means to our intentions of modern Islam with enlightened, democratic, humanistic, open and feminist Understanding weaken and break our will want. In fact, we are is still a manageable group, both financially and personally very is sensitive and vulnerable. Therefore, we can no longer look like Islamist Student_innen the University of Munster continued to try to make our Reform and implicitly and explicitly threaten to compromise. To give you concrete examples to illustrate this one was held on 07.01.2010 Proseminar in the opening event of the summer semester 2010 "self-determination and Emancipation of girls and women in Islam "at the bridge, also from AStA Women's Department was supported. The launch event went organizationally Thanks to the energetic support of the present bridge-assisted very well and content according to the circumstances well. A detailed experience report You can read on our website (http//freeminds.blogsport.de). Inter alia also there revealed at an example of how a successful, content-blockade with subtle means of Islamist Student_innen work. We have for the announcement of the launch event in advance of course Posters at the International Center (both for the launch event as well as for "Free Minds&quot, in consultation with the present bridge-Mitarbeiter_innen hanged. It was notable that a total of four times, the posters no longer in the closed Shop windows were and we had to make again and again for the posters again then install. We have in the first case, the explanation of the bridge-grade that are likely to be suspended for lack of space, the posters had so unacceptable. The second time it was probably a Misunderstanding act. Even this explanation, we have accepted. But after the third and fourth explanation, that it probably due to organizational Misunderstandings should be done, we were very skeptical, because it is with the Women's Department funded by the Student Union Flyer, which are also countless times have entirely disappeared from the shelves in the bridge, behaved similarly. It read as the presumption that employees may own in the bridge for that matter could be responsible, without directly accusing specific people to want to. SCANDAL IN PUBLIC SPACE - "THE BRIDGE" DOCUMENTATION 8 / 23 21/01/2010 But this suspicion is deteriorating reinforced once we learn painfully had that we inexplicably no longer under http//www.unimuenster. com / DieBruecke / clubs / index.html are placed, although we are more than two months were. Mr. Sommer had also so its support promised, although we are not a registered association. We are after all morally and organizationally reached a point where we are in our efforts and work are very discriminated against us Student_innen fundamentalist, which means Islamofascist train in their Try to avoid subtle assume no longer able to feel secure. We therefore ask you all the more to take our complaint to the attention, corresponding measures to block attempts by Islamist Student_innen and to take us a specially protected area for the Continuation of the democratic reform movement continue to be available to ask. Thank you for your attention! Sincerely, Free Mindler_innen P.S. In Angang you will find two documents the concept for the Proseminar "Self-determination and emancipation of girls and women in Islam" and the current section of the bridge-site that shows that "Free Minds" does not longer listed among the initiatives is.

We have long consider how we should deal with this unjust situation, benevolent Aware that it is indeed an oversight or the like, misunderstanding. SCANDAL IN PUBLIC SPACE - "THE BRIDGE" DOCUMENTATION 10 / 23 21/01/2010 could act. The time, together made our ranks, constellations increasingly suspicious. We have come to the conclusion that we no longer can stand idly by as those women and men, our Denied right to exist and want to take, with blatant methods (Rejection, condemnation, psychological pressure, intimidation, to explicit threats) try to make our actions and our organizational To prevent development. Often, there are those Muslim_innen in this case, which are the most and loudest of the experienced discrimination and Muslim_innen as a minority complain of injustice at the same time as us Minority with a defensive attitude and discrimination is not treated differently.

Second Letter from Joachim Sommer From "Summer, Joachim" To Sent Monday, 11 January 2010, 165712 Clock Subject Information of the Press Dear ] censored Now the issue for the bridge and the staff is still less encouraging than expected. Meanwhile, the press has called here and the bridge in a Light asked what m.E. completely covered, and peace in the house here but huge is disturbing. I always put behind you, but if now a public SCANDAL IN PUBLIC SPACE - "THE BRIDGE" DOCUMENTATION 11 / 23 21/01/2010 Campaign against the bridge is started without first talking with me; I can not accept more. And if it is on the poster campaign at the announcement for the event last Thursday, has acted, it was - was reported to me - a Reaction to it that the event in this house is not known and applied was (not a space application approved by the Secretariat, etc.) and the space was really just happen freely, as the students from Cameroon, a Allocation of space had not (!!), came. So it was a Courtesy of the bridge staff, that you could use the room! When Free Minds is now holding a campaign against the bridge to be necessary, you ought to Figures note! (My note Probably the fact that free Minds no chance against the university and bridge) has I do not want to gloss over potential errors, which in individual cases may also is not to gloss over. It should also be remembered that there were times when were the Kurds, Muslims and other groups having similar problems suffer. Since, however, was not immediately informed the press, but in countless Talks constructive and peaceful co-existence "developed". This is the Basis of the work in the bridge. It would be good if Free Minds Find this respect with me as the conversation would not only with auxiliaries.

Last reply by Free Minds W information to the press Monday, 11 January 2010, 173358 Clock From censored To "Summer, Joachim" CC [email protected] Hello Mr. Summer, We regret very much that our difficulties and our associated no substantive criticisms against the behavior of a few Muslims quite understand it. Our criticism was directed at no case against "The SCANDAL IN PUBLIC SPACE - "THE BRIDGE" DOCUMENTATION 12 / 23 21/01/2010 Bridge ", but the heavy, for us may no longer be portable. It was not just about the poster campaign (started a month ago) for the Event last Thursday, but simultaneously to an information Poster on Free Minds! It is quite striking when both posters repeatedly Abunde hung up after a direct appeal and were designed flyers without a trace disappeared. Regarding the space reservation, we had a similar Misunderstanding with a meeting of the Student Council's women's unit on the subject "Stalking". In a lengthy telephone conversation with Mrs Scheimann, I had both Events, both the stalking issue (14.12) as well as the launch - Event on the Proseminar "self-determination" (7.01) investigated. In any event, I thought I had it after the pleasant phone call. Disappeared as our representation of the bridge's website is, we could these circumstances no longer be dismissed as accidental and unintentional events. We're very sorry that you are thus in a bad light, but just a two-bridge employees cause us considerable suspicion, perhaps you should Criticism of this perspective view. If your employees fully Skills obtained, they should in our opinion, the consequences for this behavior carry. We have been for your support and willingness to help always welcome! A constructive and peaceful coexistence is impossible if one seeks and under given circumstances, is successful, our work in a subtle way and miskreditieren way and sabortieren the development! Sincerely, SCANDAL IN PUBLIC SPACE - "THE BRIDGE" DOCUMENTATION 13 / 23 21/01/2010 5. CONSTRUCTIVE INSTEAD OF ATTACK OF PUBLIC MANAGEMENT (taken from the bridge site, Stand 20.01.2010) SCANDAL IN PUBLIC SPACE - "THE BRIDGE" DOCUMENTATION 14 / 23 21/01/2010 6. PUBLIC COMMENTS FROM FREE MINDS We have the open letter, "complaint, fear and urgent request" to the Rectorate and the bridge-head of the University of Munster as a means of 9.01.10 Smear campaign against "The Bridge" and the generally very competent, friendly and helpful, "Bridge Team" written. Therefore, we are the dangerous one-sided, partisan, and the initiative Approach of Mr Sommer very irritated and upset. We regret Also, not that both the Rector and the bridge board of management, constructively with the substantive criticisms and an urgent plea deal are excluded in an intensive investigation, facts and so have publicly opposed the initiative. Unfortunate, we also find that Mr. Sommer in this case, bridge-auxiliary, with the matter and Criticism had absolutely nothing to do, presents for public consultation for some of us even abused. We have within the group, our approach in the case of the open letter after its publication in question and a very long and controversial discussed, but in retrospect, more enlightened and relieved that we were on this very unpleasant way an important insight into the policies and Philosophy allows the bridge's board of management. So at least we know that Islamist_innen any time in "The Bridge" welcome are critical Muslim_innen having legitimate fears, do not. After all, who apparently anti-Semitic propaganda flyers from a known, Islamic community in a public "Free Minds" event distributed before that (in a public caf? atmosphere meant in the bridge) fearless and carefree, anti-Semitic, sexist and homophobic comments to give, and the persons involved in these events, a very close human and (friendly relationship with an employee!) have, one would perhaps but go to the bottom of our criticism should, before any criticism from Prestige has cursed him. So we really only the message get that error in "The Bridge" are categorically excluded and all Conflicts against the idyllic image of peaceful and multicultural Coexistence speak rigorously and uncompromisingly ignored, repressed and fought will. To that extent we will continue this Thursday the weekly open and democratic discourse sessions of "Free Minds relocate" to another location and "The Bridge", because we are not welcome and desirable, no longer associated with our discourses and events for a feminist, critical, open and disrupt the enlightened Islam. SCANDAL IN PUBLIC SPACE - "THE BRIDGE" DOCUMENTATION 15 / 23 21/01/2010 We find it outrageous, but are now not surprised that increasingly, in public spaces such as "The Bridge" and neo-conservative Islamist demands and behavior of the free admission is granted. We have the open letter entirely justified fears and anxieties go beyond the special posters, flyers and home affair, expressed brought and therefore find it very unfortunate that this can only point of criticism for Took note. In this context, it is just very important to know that the most members of "Free Minds," for fear of verbal and physical attacks and even the stigma of public weekly and open "discussion sessions trusted" and some even many years and painful experiences in such, again and again and failed disrupted, intellectual emancipation movements have. The people solve up after failed efforts, not air, but are in the vast and minor spheres of the virtual world crowded, where their Islamist_innen doubt as to real existence and the glorious Islamist victory against reason and the understanding of the critical and individual Muslim_innen feiern. Thus, the cynical may sound, these are difficult and questionable circumstances, the initial condition of this initiative. The most critical Muslim_innen want the security front in Islamist_innen the discourse of meetings to be convinced before they are in this very delicate Initiative proactively contribute, so wait in the background, the organizational and regional Development of "Free Minds" in M?nster. Interested Muslim_innen from Hamburg, Berlin, Oldenburg, and Frankfurt also waiting for days on concrete Assistance, templates and useful procedures for the Implementation of the "Free Mind" concept in their regions, which we all very well, thoroughly and conscientiously and-finish are available to show solidarity wanted. Two girls from the Islamist closed circle in Munster hope Also for a long time on a feasible solution from us, so it is a free and may lead independent lives. We are out of the high content, thematic, organizational and methodological requirements and emotionally very overwhelmed! Unfortunately, we're through this very unfortunate incident into a fatal situation and come, where we only human, temporal and financial deficits also our mental and physical limits are encountered. We had expected more support and assistance, instead of complaints and allegations! Since there is the impression of "Free Minds" had the contents of the open letter false and invented and launched a smear campaign against the bridge, had We found it more than fitting that this event takes place, private ESKANDAL IN PUBLIC SPACE - "THE BRIDGE" DOCUMENTATION 16 / 23 21/01/2010 Mail traffic between Mr. Sommer and the quoted in the newspaper as a woman and S?z renamed person published here, because it restricts the behavior of "The Bridge and overall management of the university would have been very easy to understand. Prestige and a so-called "peace, joy and pancakes" mentality was the Main reasons that the content of a deep and serious Engagement with our open letter has been waived. We can reproduce it on the other hand, that probably the high demands and the growing institutional pressure on the university and its Service facilities such an aggressive and destructive actions has compelled. Unfortunately. We refrain from the said private e-mail publishing market, as raised against this exposure, the majority of "Free Minds" ethical concerns has. (Note The ethical concerns disappear after the bridge line clear and publicly take a stand against us and denounced as L?gner_innen!) Thank you for your attention!

PHILOSOPHY OF FREE MINDS Humanism and education are inseparable elements in Islam and the Philosophy of Free Minds. The Koran calls in several places the believer to make use of the understanding. Immanuel Kant's' Sapere aude - Have courage, you use your own understanding "is therefore also in the Qur'anic understanding firmly anchored. The fact that Free Minds on abuses in the "mainstream Islam" draws attention and wants to show a modern alternative, which is precisely the origin and real meaning of Islam reflects, we recognize an absolute consensus between Islam, humanism and the Enlightenment. Free Minds is not just the Finger on the various groupings show, but Islam as explore how it is meant in the original. Humanism means above all that the inviolable dignity of human beings is. It is then guided from the virtues. Even the great mystic Rumi knew what was going on in the world and reflects therefore the original Islam. Muhammad Iqbal, who is treated as "Rumi the modern age," found its way into the works of the renowned psychoanalyst Erich Fromm. These and similar Aufkl?rer_innen different currents have the vision with their hearts and Reason developed and well understood, binding values in word and deed . formulate Our duty and our natural urge is, Islam, To see humanism and the Enlightenment as a whole, presenting it as it stands and wise in the "mainstream Islam" existing deficiencies in their place and to resolve.

I have read the extract from the book that they give in the site. It doesn't tell me much. The prbHe le?do el extracto que ponen del libro en este sitio. No me dice gran cosa. El problem created by the British Empire to the Palestinians and fostered and enlarged by the successor of that Empire in present days has nothing to do with religion. They are not disputing religi?n, it is a matter of international law and no amount of fiddling with religion is going to settle it. Palestinians can be christians muslim or jews and they are equally palestinians. Israelis are mostly arrieligious with a number of ultra orthodox jews. That doesn't matter. What matters is that Palestine is a remain of colonial past ment to tie with an imperial future to which we are being led unrelentingly. To put religion into the mix serves no ther purpose than mislead. Salaam

At an early period, the ancient Arab idea of sunna, precedent or normative custom, reasserted itself in Islam. Whatever was customary was right and proper, whatever their forefathers had done deserved to be imitated, and in the idea of precedent or sunna the whole conservatism ofArabs found expression. This idea presented a formidable obstacle to every innovation, including Islam itself. But once Islam had prevailed, the old conservatism reasserted itself within the new community, and the idea of sunna became one of the central concepts of Islamic law. Sunna in its Islamic context originally had a political rather than a legal connotation. The question whether the administrative acts of the First two caliphs, Abu Bakr and 'Umar, should be regarded as binding precedents, arose probably when a successor to 'Umar had to beappointed in 23/644, and the discontent with the policy of the third caliph, 'Uthman, which led to his assassination in 35/655, took the form of a charge that he, in his turn, had diverged from the policy of his predecessors and, implicitly, from the Qur'an. In this connexion, there arose the concept of the 'sunna of the Prophet', not yet identified with any set of positive rules, but providing a doctrinal link between the sunna of Abu Bakr and 'Umar' and the Qur'an. The earliest evidence for this use of the term 'sunna of the Prophet' dates from about 76/695, and we shall see later how it was introduced into the theory of Islamic law. Also During the greater part of the first/seventh century, Islamic law, in the technical meaning of the term, did not as yet exist. As had been the case in the time of Muhammad, law as such fell outside the sphere of religion; if no religious or moral objections were involved, the technical aspects of law were a matter of indifference to the Muslims. This accounts for the widespread adoption, or rather survival, of certain legal and administrative institutions and practices of the conquered territories, such as the treatment of the tolerated religions which was closely modelled on the treatment of the Jews in the Byzantine empire, methods of taxation, the institution ofemphyteusis, and so forth. The principle of the retention of pre-Islamic legal practices under Islam was sometimes openly acknowledged, e.g. by the historian al-Baladhuri (d. 279/892), but generally speaking fictitious Islamic precedents were later invented as a justification. http//www.fordham.edu/halsall/med/schacht.html Schacht ones again.

Peace RA786 But what if the pig was already killed for its meat as they do in non-islamic countries? A) If the Pig Died of Natural Causes It is consitted Haraam According to the Quran. B) If the Pig Died because Non-Muslims killed it for the meat, and gave the remaining 10% of the Pig to Muslims.... ...I suppose since it is not the "Meat" it is not Technically Consitted Haraam.... However, I would still not consume it for other "Esoteric, Occultic, and Personal Suspicious Reasons." In Brief, All Companyies that are Heavily funded,Connected, or Linked in some way by the Elitists, Globalists, Zionists, satanists, etc.... All for some strange Reason Use Pork Byproducts as additives in their food. They Most Often Refuse to use Cattle Byproducts, or Purely Vegitiable Byproducts such as Vegtiable Glycerine or Geletin. They Almost NEVER Mention the names "Lard, Pork, Boar, or Pig" (names that are easily identifiable by the general Public) Rather they Use names that Most People with an Average Intellect do not understand whatso ever. The General Public would actually be More likely to NOT BUY the food product If they Knew it was made from Pig Fat. However, since they dont know they buy it. (this seems suspicious.) Also, They Use L-Cysteine (Human Hair) in baking products. However only RECENTLY have made Propaganda to Cover it up, and claim that they no longer use that or that they use Pork Hair instead...(but really most of them proabily still use human hair.) If you all want to Eat this stuff you are More than Welcome...However for me anyways... I understand the Sinister intentions of the elite food corps. They believe in Spiritual Energy, Which is within Food.... I understand that Pork Vibrates at a Specific Level and By eating it you therefore Vibrate at a Specific Level. The Story of Jesus in the Bible is very symbolic for this and the Use of Jinn in Possession. So it would seem Rather Nieve to believe that these people are not intentionally doing this. SOILENT GREEN! lol ;D Id rather be a Conspiracy Theorist using speculation, then wishful thinking and being Nieve. If you Control the Food You control the masses. If you send Negitive/Low Energy Food, it will help Lower the Energy of the people Thus making them easier to Possess. (a different type of possession). For some reason Pork Seems to stand out as a major Esoteric Commodity to them. I believe there is deffinatly a Connection to the use of Pork and Dark magic/evil intentions. Is this in the Quran...Not that I know of. Could I be Wrong? Possibily. But would I rather be SAFE than SORRY? YES!!! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD YES!! ;D

Simple! Thanks. Could you pls help me with the points. Who are the women and what is the oath? Nobody knows and it seems its one of those verses that was designed not to be fully understood and see what spin people put on it. Once again the Sects faild that test.

The Quran describes those who uses their mind, critically evaluate assertions to reach to the truth with various words Mumin (acknowledger) Muslim (submitter, the peacemaker) Muslih (reformed, the reformer) Muttaqy (god-conscious) Taib (the one who returns) Ibadullah (God's servant) Hizbullah (God's party) Hanif (monotheist) Saih (activist) Ulul Absar (those with vision) Utul ilma (those who are given knowledge) Mujahid (the one who struggles) Qaim bil Qist (observe justice) Sadiq (truthful, supporter) Nasara (supporter) Muhsin (good doer) .............. It seems that the word Muslim (surrenderer to the will of God, peacemaker) is the most commonly used positive adjective. Very good point. I would add Nasara (championed God)and Hudna(following the guidance) along with that even though its means Christians and Jews in common language.

"intellectually challenged" LOL! laugh

Why the term reformist translation and not Quranic translation. It gives the idea that somehow its not the original Quran but a "reformed" one. A Reformist is not the adjective of the Quran it is used to describe the TRANSLATORS. Peace, Edip

Salaam nsws1988, as I said it is only our choices that allow the system we suffer, these choices can be understood as a subjugated mind, that means a mind that is subservient to the will and dictates of another person or group, a subjugated mind will enforce the will of their sovereign upon those around them. So the answer is simple, people have to realise the situation, recognize that they are subjugated and refuse that subjugation, this will change the world. It can be done, but not alone, the critical mass of the number of people it takes to change a system is quiet small, possibly between 1 and 5% of the local population, a percentage various people have suggested in historical example, if we take the top figure of 5%, I have written an oath to refuse sovereignty posted on my website, if this oath was sworn to, upon reaching the critical mass it would be enacted, and the power of sovereignty would be removed, the systems presented within the Qur'an are explained on my website, Qur'anic Caliphate, a sovereign free system could be established.
