Sick: Asians Gang Rape Girl in Slough

Imam Suhaib Webb: Rape is a horrible crime; a horrible sin before God.

Here's a news article of a 17 year old girl being gang raped in Slough. The report says the men are Asian. As Muslims we should always speak out against rape, so if these Asian rapists are found to be Muslims we should still speak out against this crime as Islam is against rape.

A 17-year-old girl has been raped by a gang of men in secluded nature spot, police said.
The teenager was attacked in woods near the Jubilee River in Slough, Berkshire, yesterday evening after meeting a group of men earlier in the day.

She started talking with one of the men and walked with him along the high street, stopping at an off licence.The pair then walked along Spackmans Way before moving on to a footpath and into some woods near the Jubilee River, Thames Valley Police said.

Four other men, who were part of the earlier group, arrived at the location in a small silver car. The girl was then raped by "several of the men", police said.

Detectives have urged anyone who believes they saw the men, who are described as Asian, or the victim to come forward.

...Anyone with information should contact police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111. [MSN news]

Hypocrisy + Hijabi fired for wearing Hijab + Christian Minister Wears Hijab!

What is interesting to note here is how strikingly similar the outfits are for each faith, yet the attire worn by women from the Islamic faith is married to words such as ‘oppressed’, ‘medieval’, ‘backwards’.

There is a lot of National and International media coverage and literature regarding why Muslim ...women cover; with some of these studies/opinions interpreting the attire as a mark of male domination, backward culture practises, restriction of a woman’s freedom and more recently; a security threat.

Yet, people from other faiths share incredibly similar attires but never face anywhere near the same discrimination as Muslims – one society, 2 different rules! [MPACUK]

 

Here's MPACUK's comment on a woman in France who was fired from her job for simply wearing the Hijab!

France’s top court has sustained the decision of a privately run childcare centre to fire an employee (Fatima Afif) for wearing the Hijab to work.

The Hijab simply covers the head not intelligence or drive. The Hijab does not restrict a woman from interacting with other members of society, or from being a proactive member in the community. The Hijab does not imply that women are mediocre to men, nor is it a symbol or indication of an oppressed woman that needs freeing or res...cuing. It is a choice and should be respected as such.

Here's the comment of a female Christian minister who wears Hijab at times:

I am a Christian minister in America.  Although I don’t always wear hijab, often times I do in prayer/dua, in daily routine, and even in church!!! God sent me many beautiful Muslim friends. Really, I cannot imagine my life without them. They have been there for me in good times and bad. Some Christians have taken issue with me about this matter but they are not God. My God says it is good. So I tell them that if they don’t like it too bad. Hehe

There is so much hypocrisy in all the Christian movies of the Old-testament and the Gospel. The women wear them. Mary, mother of Jesus is always presented wearing a hijab in our Christian paintings. The Catholic nuns wear them. African women wear head dresses. In many Christian churches, women wear  head coverings  before entering to worship. It is their belief according to the way they interpret the scriptures in the Gospel!!!

Christian women in many parts of the world wear them and yet they have the audacity to criticize a Muslimah (Muslim woman) for her hijab!!! Too many Christians are singling out the Muslims and just picking on them. Well, me and many of my Christian friends know the meaning of fairness & respect. I will preach it ’till the day I die!!! I dedicate this to all my Muslim friends…Alhamdulillah!!!

Muslim Responds to German Princess Theodora Sayn-Wittgenstein

My message to the German princess who made a comment about killing Muslims is to learn about Islam and become a Muslim if you are not already one. I would say the same to her father, Prince Ludwig.

Her Serene Highness Princess Theodora Sayn-Wittgenstein was in the dock at Dundee Sheriff Court after admitting telling first aider Farah Jasmin Hussain: 'I was doing my nails this morning - I wondered how many Muslims I could kill.' [Daily Mail]


A German princess is making headlines in Europe after she appeared drunk, stripped off her clothes, and ranted about killing Muslims at a recent party in Scotland.
Princess Theodora Sayn-Wittgenstein, 27, was fined £1,000 (about $1700) and admitted to one charge of disturbing the peace aggravated by religious prejudice, and two counts of assault as a result of the incident [Fox News]

Muslim Message to Edinburgh's Central Mosque Bacon Attackers

Muslim message to mosque attackers


Chelsea Lambie and Douglas Cruikshank have been jailed for an attack on Edinburgh's Central Mosque. They attacked the mosque with bacon. Weird story.


If Chelsea and/or Douglas are reading this I would like to invite you to Islam. Become Muslims. Islam offers a deep spiritual and meaningful relationship with your Creator.

 

I think upon their release Muslims should invite them to Islam and Edinburgh's Central Mosque should offer them a tour of the mosque. There's a lot of ignorance out there about Islam and Muslims which leads to offences such as these.

 

A teenage girl and 39-year old man who desecrated an Edinburgh mosque by attacking it with strips of bacon have both been jailed.

Chelsea Lambie, 18, from Paisley, was sentenced to 12 months and Douglas Cruikshank, from Galashiels, to nine months.

They attached bacon to door handles and threw strips inside Edinburgh's Central Mosque on 31 January 2013.

Cruikshank pled guilty. Lambie was found guilty after denying the charges.

Sheriff Alistair Noble, at Edinburgh Sheriff Court, said: "It does not seem to me there is any way to deal with this case other than by custody."

Muslim on Bible Misconception

We've already seen a really confusing explanation of Numbers 31:17-18 by a Christian apologist under the name of Shamoun but now we are seeing even more confusing claims concerning Numbers 31:17-18.

Will people just stop presenting theories on Numbers 31:17-18 which don't stack up!

The internet is full of hatred and misinformation concerning people's faiths and holy books so we all need to exercise some caution when speaking on issues pertaining to faith.

Here, Nadir Ahmed offers a claim concerning Numbers 31:17-18 which does not stack up and could lead to offence and further confusion.

¹⁷ Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
¹⁸ But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves. [KJV]

Nadir with regards to Numbers 31:18 writes:

The only way to know if a woman is a virgin is for these men to inspect the hymen of the vagina to see if it is intact

Even if the account in Numbers 31:17-18 is true, this would not necessarily mean these men forced the young girls to have a virginity test as in ancient times it was generally quite easy to discern a virgin from a non-virgin girl. Girls as soon as they hit puberty would have been married in ancient times. Thus merely by looking at a girl in those times one could generally discern between married and unmarried (or in other words, virgins and non-virgins).

Conclusion

Even if this account was true, the idea of forced virginity tests being conducted is far-fetched. More thought and sensitivity is required here.

Jesus taught people to do the Will of God (according to Mark 3:35) in order to become his brothers, mothers or sisters. A Muslim means one who submits to the Will of God. Do you want to become a brother of Jesus? If yes, become a Muslim. Now is the time.

Yasir Qadhi on Muslims Killed in Sri Lanka by Buddhist Violence

May Allah protect the Muslims of Sri Lanka - they are under attack from Buddhist terrorists. Horrific images are being circulated around the net - if these are true, it is astonishing that there is so little attention being paid to this massacre. Although this report only mentions 3 deaths, I am hearing second-hand reports that the numbers are far, far worse. Please - can people post authentic links below and spread the word.

 

From BBC News:

 

At least three Muslims have been killed in overnight clashes with hardline Buddhists in southern Sri Lanka.

The men died of gunshot wounds near a mosque in the town of Aluthgama in what is seen as Sri Lanka's worst outbreak of sectarian violence in years.

More than 78 others have been seriously injured in the violence, justice minister Rauf Hakeem said.

A curfew is in place in Aluthgama and nearby Beruwala. Muslims make up 10% of Sri Lanka's mainly Buddhist population.

The men who were killed were shot after midnight following several hours of clashes between two factions in which stones and bottles were lobbed, reports the BBC's Charles Haviland in Aluthgama.

Mr Hakeem, a Muslim, said he was "outraged" at the police failure to keep law and order and that the authorities had allowed Buddhists to demonstrate three days after a smaller sectarian clash in the area, involving Muslim youths and a Buddhist monk's driver.

He said he was "ashamed" to be part of the government. He made his remarks as he visited areas which have been caught up in the violence.

The authorities imposed a curfew after clashes began following a rally by the BBS, the Bodu Bala Sena, or Buddhist Brigade in Aluthgama on Sunday.

Eyewitness accounts tell of Muslims being pulled off local buses and beaten. There are also reports of looting as well as shops being burned.

Jizya and Reported ISIS Thugs Rape Assyrian Mother and Daughter

Muslim Response to reports of un-Islamic actions

This story may or may not be true. If true, then these thugs are clearly in the wrong. It's reported that 'ISIS' thugs in Iraq have raped an Assyrian mother and daughter because they could not pay a tax (Jizya).

It's purely un-Islamic to rape somebody for being unable to pay the Jizya. It's obvious thuggery - nothing to do with Islam. Muslims should never commit such deplorable actions. Muslim authorities should look into this story and condemn appropriately.

 

The AINA news agency is reporting that an Assyrian mother and daughter were raped by militants in Mosul after saying they did not have the money to pay the jizya poll tax for non-Muslims.

The rapes were carried out in front of the father who was so traumatised that he committed suicide, reports Dr Sallama Al Khafaji, a member of the Iraq High Commission for Human Rights.

Who Started Christianity? It Was NOT Jesus (p)

To say that Jesus didn't found Christianity would immediately anger many people. However, upon closer inspection of the phrase, it is difficult to say otherwise. The earliest book that came to be in the New Testament was written decades after Jesus' death and the Christian doctrines and creeds were created centuries later. The reality is that Christianity didn't exist until after Jesus' time and therefore couldn't have been created by him[25]. After Jesus' departure, many people took to writing down what had happened and what it meant. The first problems for Christianity arose when these writings turned out to be very different from each other. In fact, the practices and beliefs of people who called themselves Christians during the first three centuries were so varied that the differences between modern Christian sects pale in comparison[26].

During the second half of the second century, with the growing number of prophetic and perceived heretical movements among Christians, there was great need for a fixed canon[27]. Christian groups such as the Marcionites, the Ebionites, the Gnostics, and the proto-orthodox all insisted that they correctly upheld the teachings of Jesus and were all in competition to become the rightful version that would eventually be adopted by the Roman Empire[28]. The proto-orthodox, named as such because of its eventual victory, was ultimately endorsed by Constantine as the primary religion of the Roman Empire. As the proto-orthodox text “developed into the dominant religious, political, economic, social, and cultural institution of the West”[29], the other defeated texts were labeled heretical and were “rejected, scorned, maligned, attacked, burned, [and] all but forgotten”[30].
