in response to reader comment: Living in the wonderful lands of - DAR AL HARB

Submitted by Salah Ali (Norway), Jun 5, 2009 at 08:07

Lau-Queen: If Dar al Islam is so wonderful why are you and your family living in Dar al Harb ?

Truth of the matter is that Islam was perverted by people like Hussein al Banna, and the very weird (perhaps homosexual) Sayyid Qutb. Founders of the Muslim Brotherhood ( 1930's) whose organizaional model were the Italian "black shirts". The group, along with much of the Arabian world allied itself with Hitler and the Nazi party during World War Two. Sayyid's brother Muhammed fled to Saudi Arabia after his execution, and became a college professor (Islamic studies) and was the favorite teacher of , Osama bin Laden. Interesting on how few people in your religion have commented on the fact that most of their writings, and fatwa's were not based on either the Koran, the Hadiths, or even previous religious rulings. Perhaps that is why so much of the Islamic world has entered the state of - "FITNA " !

And no I am not referring to the Dutch movie, but rather to the Arabic word itselt.

Before I am a Moslem, I am a human being and as all human beings I have the right to choose where I live. Moreover, Islam is a Universal religion and all the earth is our domain. All of us from Adam, and adam is of dust! Nevertheless, I tell you some more details on my particular case: I left my country because the Neocons launched a war of Aggression against us and herds of killers like Blackwater started shooting and killing people arbitrarily, and the USA army itself has created a state of lawlessness and chaos where several factions were created and started killing one another. Saddam Hussein built hospitals, schools and modern infrastructure. The Central Powerful Government ther Baath founded was the best for Iraq since the sectarian and ethnic divisions would threaten the integrity and sovereignty not only of Iraq but of Iran and Turkey. Even the Kurds who were peaceful under Saddam, created their death squads who assassinated scholars, physicians and engineers in cities like Mosul, Kirkok and Diyala. It was Saddam who encouraged the scholarship and those physicians and scholars were graduates of English and European Universities. I myself among hundred others am a graduate of an English University. In other words, what Saddam built, the invading yahoos destroyed.

Being a University professor myself, I received an invitation from my European colleagues who insisted that I come and live in Europe. In fact, I enjoy more freedom, security and free-speech here than I had in my home-land. But you should understand that there is political necessity and that political necessity is a must by virtue of the Middle East specific situation, and this political necessity is both historical and cultural one as well. The pattern of life we used to is very much acceptable since it preserved our history and kept our cultural identity intact. The USA looted or facilitated the looting of our Museum which was originally established by an English lady in 1921, besides, it destroyed our infrastructure built by Saddam and improved nothing. Iraq was secular and on the way of progress but the USA brought it back to primitivism and darkness. The USA army and Blackwater stole the Watch Museum too which harboured all the masterpieces made of pure gold and dispatched the uranium we had to Canada. They are thieves and criminals and if you speak of culture, culture is divorced from what you term Dar Al-Harb. We were in peace and you killed the peace in Iraq and forced the internal and external immigration of millions of Iraqis. And hundreds of thousands were killed. Is that what you term Democracy?

As for the Moslem Brotherhood, it is a reformist movement which came into existence in response to the acts of the British authority in Egypt. Your parenthesis is not unexpected from an enemy of Islam since it is ethical not to mention negative accusations when you are not certain of these accusations (note your perhaps). Also, no wonder that you label such revolutionary movement as perversion affected on Islam. First you do not understand islam to know what can be perversion from it. Also, this movement is political movement that aims are education, liberation and counteracting colonization. Your connecting them with the Blackshirts is a mistake since Islam and nationalism are incompatible. No Moslem accepts chauvinism or fascist ideology. Moreover it was Hassan (not Hussein) Al-Bana' (May God Bless His Soul)) who founded the movement not Sayyid Qutub (May God Bless His Soul). The Arab Homeland didn't ally itself with the Nazi. It was individuals who allied themselves and they were justified in their act because of the British injustice first in support of the Foundation of the Illegitimate state Israel, the massacre of the Palestinian and the feudal policy in Iraq. It was men like Rashid Ali Al-Jillani and Al-Husseini the Mufti of Al-Quds who went to Germany and met Hitler. If I were in their times, I would have gone farther and further and allied myself with the devil himself against you.

Your knowledge of Osama bin laden is next to nothing it seems. It was Sheik Abdullah Azzam (the Palestinian reformist) who played a major role on Osama's religious education, not Muhammad Mahmoud As-Sawwaf native of Mosul-Iraq who escaped Iraq (not Egypt) to Saudi Arabia and was welcomed as Obama was later by the Wahhabi government and had not met Osama or had any personal contact with him. Neither was he a brother of Hassan Al-Bana'. It was common for all Moslem to call each other brother! Moreover, when As-Sawwaf died in 1992, Usama was conducting a US proxy war against the Soviets in Afghanistan. Your statements are at their best bare anachronisms and misconceptions. None of the practices and tenets of Moslem Brothers is alien to the Holy Qu'an, Sirah or the prophetic Traditions. Islam is fundamentally a political religion. The brothers are very much representative of the real tenets of Islam they stress Jihad and call for Moslem education and the liberation of our lands from killers and colonizers. They are just a continuation of the reformist movement of Jamal Ad-Din Al-Afghani, Muhammad Abdo and others. Fitna or (sedition) is not the proper word to describe our holy warriors. It was originally coined in the aftermaths of the assassination of the third Caliph, and then after the martyrdom of Hussein (PBH). The Islamic world is not the result of a summation process of its component parts but is a result of a multiplication process of text and history. Its resiliency is unpredictable, its life eternal, its outcome is victory… And as you may discern if you can discern: I am almost westerner in everything but I am Moslem in my heart…The heart that will win…
