ISLAM 1 --- 8

ISLAM ... 1

Islam mandates absolute obedience to Allah. Those that reject this idea are termed 'kafirs'. In other words, non-Muslims are kafirs.

ইসলামের বিধান আল্লাহ্'র প্রতি সম্পূর্ণ আনুগত্য, পূর্ণ বাধ্যতা | যে এই বিধানটি, ভাবটি মানে না, সে কাফির নামাঙ্কিত হয় | অর্থাৎ, সকল অমুসলমানই কাফির |

ISLAM ... 2

The word 'Islam' means 'submission'. It is the absolute submission to Allah and to none else. 'Allah' means 'The God', 'Al' standing for 'The' and 'Lah' standing for 'God'. As 'Allah' is 'The God', there can be no other God but Allah. Islam is thus pure dualistic monotheism and cannot tolerate 'Shirk' (partnering God with any other deity as polytheists supposedly do). 'Shirk' is the worst offence in Islam as it challenges the sovereignty of Allah, His jurisdiction, and in effect limits Him which He being the absolute master of heaven and earth and all else cannot be. Shirk is thus unforgivable in the judgement of Allah and death on earth and eternal hellfire hereafter is its punishment. Hindus are in the eyes of Islam polytheists and therefore the worst offenders in the eyes of Allah who must either repent and convert to Islam or face warfare (jihad) and death in defeat. Hindus have thus suffered since 636 CE repeated jihadi attacks from Arab invaders till Rājā Dāhir of Sindh was defeated and killed by Muhammad Ibn Qasim in 712 CE and Hindu land polluted by Islamic perversion. Thereafter till date invasion, loot, conquest, Partition, war and jihadi aggression have been going on against the Hindus. Islam is at war with Hindu Bhāratvarsha for 1389 years.

ISLAM ... 3

Islam divides the world into two parts: Dar-ul-Islam (the realm of Islam) and Dar-ul-Harb (the realm of war). The Qur'an mandates every Muslim to engage in jihad (struggle of all shades and dimensions including in the ultimate in war against the kafir). This engagement must be whole-hearted and not half-hearted. Half-hearted participants or non-participants in jihad are dubbed munafiqs or hypocrites who are worse than even kafirs, they having gone against the mandates of the Deen and in effect working against its interests. They along with mushriks (polytheists) are the worst enemies of Islam and will be duly meted out the severest punishment in Jahannam (Islamic hell) by Allah. Thus, jihad is absolutely binding on every Muslim which means every Muslim is a warrior of Allah against the disbeliever. This jihad is aimed at converting the kafir or subjugating him through the imposition of the 'jizya' (protection money charged) on Christians and Jews who are dubbed 'Ahl al-Kitāb' (People of the Book) or by waging war and eliminating the mushriks (those engaged in partnering Allah with other deities), should the latter on first offer of conversion to Islam refuse it. The idea behind all this is that Islam declares itself to be the only true faith and way of life, death and the life hereafter, collectively called 'Deen', and hence cannot tolerate the coexistence of any other faith in finality. The whole world must be made Islamic through ceaseless jihad, the Dar-ul-Harb transformed to Dar-ul-Islam, and in this struggle (jihad) every Muslim must be glad participant, welcoming war, killing the kafir and becoming 'Ghāzi' or becoming 'Shahīd' (martyr) while waging jihad. For either effect great will be the reward in 'Jannah' (Islamic heaven). Thus, although Muslims keep harping that Islam is a religion of peace but war is a constant feature of Islam theologically and has been so in consequence historically. These terrorist attacks are thus the outcome of theological doctrine in essence, the geopolitical triggering causes being peripheral, incidental but not essential. Essentially it is doctrine that dictates adherents of the Deen including extreme violent jihadists dubbed terrorists in modern terminology.

ISLAM ... 4

The fault lies with the foundation, the fundamentals of this faith which is patently exclusive and makes the tallest of claims for itself. Islam claims that it is the last and the perfect faith beyond any possibility of further improvement as it is founded on the direct Word of Allah (The God) as revealed in the Qur'an, and hence inviolable and unalterable. All other religions earlier revealed or constructed are partly or wholly flawed and Islam alone is the pure faith without a shred of defect in it. The Qur'an is the perfect Book of God and its injunctions and rulings are mandatory for all of humanity for all time to come. Moreover, Islam being strictly monotheistic makes polytheism a grievous and unforgivable offence which makes Islam highly intolerant, nay, persecuting, and that too righteously, so to say, towards polytheistic faiths and polytheists themselves. Further, Madināh Islam being founded on political principles of governance and war makes it a most aggressive, expansionist political ideology that has historically shed rivers of the blood of the kafir (infidel), the mushrik (polytheist), the murtadd (apostate) and the mulhid (atheist). The blood that is shed in the name of Islam is through jihad (waging war) and it is done to eliminate kufr (infidelity to Allah) from the face of the earth. Jihad in Islam is mandatory for all Muslims and is the ceaseless struggle to convert the whole of humanity to the fold of Islam. This jihad is manifesting yet again in its toxic totalitarian intent against the mushrik Hindus in the Indian subcontinent with an endless series of terrorist activity claiming tens of thousands of lives. The recent Red Fort blast was but one such latest instance of jihad. It stems from scriptural theological roots and it must be comprehended and combated effectively by the study of the Islamic scriptural texts followed by adopting befitting counter-jihad measures. But jihad, it must be remembered, is not optional but mandatory for all Musilms, each one of whom is the soldier of Allah carrying the divinely ordained charge to eliminate kufr (infidelity to Allah).

ISLAM ... 5

There is something called radical ideology but there is nothing called radical radicalism like there is nothing called beautiful beauty. Hence, there is nothing called radical Islam, although there is something called Islam which through and through is a radical ideology and a totalitarian theology in core content, mantle movement and crustquaking that in igneous eruption has for fourteen hundred years been attempting the metamorphosis of the whole world unto its medieval Middle-eastern fold. 

The deserts are free of life-giving water but flowing full rivers of death-dealing blood whose largest network of tributaries issues forth from the Indian subcontinent and plunges the people here in perpetual pain. There are geopolitical causes driving world events for sure but theory matters, theology matters more, and where theological toxicity is highest, such toxins such as ricin can contaminate the hearts and minds of the devout and the bodies of innocents perpetually plagued by this pernicious 'pure' principle.

ISLAM ... 6

In Pakistan Ahmadiyyās are treated as kafirs and heavily persecuted, and here Muzammil Ahmad Ganaie, Adeel Ahmad Rather and Jawad Ahmed Siddiqui are engaged in jihad. A curious situation! One thing is central to all sects of Islam and claimants to that status---Hindu-hatred. After all Hindus commit regularly that worst of offence in the eyes of Islam---shirk (partnering God with other deities, that is, polytheism). Islam mandates all to shirk 'shirk'. But the idolatrous Hindu seems impervious to Allah's dictum. Hence, even if Sunnis and Shias fight with each other, even if both persecute Ahmadiyyas as false claimant to being Muslims, all three are united in jihad against the Hindus who for their offence of polytheism and idolatry must be obliterated from the face of the earth. Ghazwa-e-Hind thus becomes central to all Islamic sects in so far as Hindu India is concerned.

ISLAM ... 7 

Loudspeaker prayer calls must not be allowed. They are in open violation of secular principles because of the content of the calls and are a sound hazard that so often disrupts concentration in work. Worst of all, the early morning āzān (Fajr) disturbs sleep and is literally a noise nuisance.

Another pernicious practice is this roadside prayer. These gatherings are politically motivated. Hence, they must not be permitted by the authorities.

How progressive is it in 21st century India for a Muslim man to practise polygamy? Would it be acceptable to them if Muslim women, hypothetically speaking, were to be Constitutionally allowed polyandry? 

Triple Talaq has been outlawed. But Talaq-e-Hasan (the practice of divorcing by uttering 'Talaq' once a month for three months) is still in vogue. The recent case filed by journalist Benazeer Heena in the Supreme Court of India brings into sharp focus this archaic misogynistic practice that is as yet plaguing countless helpless Muslim women. In a modern society with a Constitution framed on the basis of justice and equality such exploitative practices ought to be outlawed. But alas! the Muslim Personal Law Board functions on the basis of the Sharia in regard to civil laws and is responsible for the upholding of such outdated practices. Unless Uniform Civil Code is by legislation enforced, hapless Muslim women will continue to suffer Arab consequences in independent India. When will Muslim women be independent of such religious stranglehold?
