Bit rich? What do you call these sort of statements then?

Do you know what Abu proposes as the proper Islamic way to change government?

I'll give you a hint - it is not democracy.






Abu,

Do you regard Anjem Choudary as a good, and 'authentic' moslem ?

Should, or do, the views and opinions of a moslem man like Anjem Choudary count for anything, with his fellow moslems ?




Here is Anjem Choudary [in the UK] explaining the ways in which the ISLAMIC takeover of the UK can take place....

"...making the dawa successful.
Having a clear objective.
Our objective ?
The [political] domination of ISLAM.
The way to achieve that, by implementing the Sharia...
By the moslems taking authority.
How do we take authority?
....We remove the obstacle."

As an aside, reading Anjem Choudary's words [above], reminded me of that line from the LOTR....



The old world will burn in the fires of industry. Forests will fall. A new order will rise. We will drive the machine of war with the sword and the spear and the iron fist of the Orc.
We have only to remove those who oppose us.

well lets see what a couple of his "fellow muslims" have to say about him:

Quote:
In January 2010 Guardian contributor Mehdi Hasan wrote: "Is Choudary an Islamic scholar whose views merit attention or consideration? No. Has he studied under leading Islamic scholars? Nope. Does he have any Islamic qualifications or credentials? None whatsoever. So what gives him the right to pontificate on Islam, British Muslims or 'the hellfire'? Or proclaim himself a 'sharia judge'?", and claimed that Choudary was "as unrepresentative of British Muslim opinion, as he is of British anti-war opinion."


and...

Quote:
Salma Yaqoob, the leader of Respect – The Unity Coalition, said of Choudary: "He is a bigot whose goal in life is to provoke division. He engages in these provocations because he is deeply hostile to any coming together of Muslims and non-Muslims.

No.





gandalf,

NONETHELESS [no matter the 'evidences' you state above] the fact is, that Anjem Choudary is accurately portraying what ISLAM instructs, regarding the relationship that moslems must foster towards disbelievers.

Can you deny it ???i
Quote:

"....He [Choudary] engages in these provocations because he is deeply hostile to any coming together of Muslims and non-Muslims."





This is what Allah [HIMSELF] says, about the moslems' relationship, towards those who are not moslems.....

"Let not the believers Take for friends or helpers Unbelievers rather than believers: if any do that, in nothing will there be help from Allah:"
Koran 003.028

"O ye who believe! Take not for friends unbelievers rather than believers: Do ye wish to offer Allah an open proof against yourselves?"
Koran 004.144

"....take not the Jews and the Christians for your friends....
......he amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them."

Koran 5.51

"O ye who believe! Take not into your intimacy those outside your ranks: They will not fail to corrupt you. They only desire your ruin: Rank hatred has already appeared from their mouths: What their hearts conceal is far worse....."
Koran 3.118

"....the Unbelievers are unto you open enemies."
Koran 4.101

"......the curse of Allah is on those without Faith."
Koran 2.089

"....Lo! Allah is an enemy to those who reject Faith."
Koran 2.98

"O ye who believe! Fight those of the disbelievers who are near to you, and let them find harshness in you, and know that Allah is with those who keep their duty (unto Him)."
Koran 9.123

"O ye who believe! Take not my enemies and yours as friends.....offering them (your) love,..."
Koran 60.1




n.b.
ACCORDING TO >> MAINSTREAM << ISLAM, those are the ACTUAL words of Allah, which instruct moslems, regarding the relationship that moslems must foster towards disbelievers.


True, OR, false ?

no you quoted mistranslations.

Here, try and educate yourself:

Quote:
In his response to the question, Dr. Muzammil Siddiqi, former president of the Islamic Society of North America, states the following:


The Qur'an does not say that non-Muslims cannot be Muslims' friends, nor does it forbid Muslims to be friendly to non-Muslims. There are many non-Muslims who are good friends of Muslim individuals and the Muslim community. There are also many good Muslims who truly and sincerely observe their faith and are very friendly to many non-Muslims at the same time.


Quote:
In the verse you quoted, the word "Awliya" is used. It is a plural and its singular is "wali". The correct translation of the word ""wali"" is not "friend" but it is someone who is very close and intimate. It is also used to mean "guardian, protector, patron, lord and master".


Quote:
The correct translation of the verse in Surat Al-Ma’idah is: [O you who believe! Do not take Jews and Christians as your patrons. They are patrons of their own people. He among you who will turn to them for patronage is one of them. Verily Allah guides not a people unjust.] (Al-Ma'dah 5: 51)

It is obvious that Jews patronize the Jews and Christians patronize the Christians, so why not Muslims patronize Muslims and support their own people. This verse is not telling us to be against Jews or Christians, but it is telling us that we should take care of our own people and we must support each other.

Very deceptive of you Gandalf in saying non muslims when the Quran forbids muslims from taking christians and jews for friends in 5:51

http://quran.com/5/51
Tick boxes on left and read all english translations to dispel myth of mistranslation.

Since atheists are around 30% of our population what does Islam say about atheists Gandalf?
Quote:
The creator of this universe is the one who deserves to be worshipped (allah does nothing in vain..lol) obeyed and feared,hoped and loved.
This means that one who does not acknowledge this truth is an atheist and a denier and is ignorant and corrupt,his intellect is less than human

Islam forbids non-Muslims from having any direct say in who runs the country. And of course, when I say non-Muslims, that includes Muslims of the wrong type (sunni/shia etc). And of course it compels them to kill anyone who tries to establish a government that is not of the correct type. And we wonder why Muslims slaughter each other even more than they slaughter non-Muslims.

Well done Gandalf did you read the translation by Muhsin Khan?

Why would anyone take your word for this over all the Quran translators at Quran.com?

If they have mistranslated this verse then you should use your superior arabic and ask them to change it.

Please read Muhsin Khan translation by ticking box on left, tick all the boxes and see what all the Quran translators say about this verse.

He doesn't categorically say its "friends" either - but "friends, protectors, helpers, etc". The arabic word used is clearly a loaded word, but it is clear that it is understood as not merely "friend", but someone you look to for protection, guidance, patronage etc. Its not unreasonable for muslims to avoid this from christians and jews - as I'm sure christians and jews would reasonably avoid the same from muslims.

I see you missed the Dr Ghali translation:
Quote:
O you who have believed, do not take to yourselves the Jews and the Nasara (Christians) as patrons; some of them are patrons to some (others). And whoever of you patronizes them, then surely he is one of them. Surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.


If we look at the actual definitions from an objective source, firstly the word used "Auliya":

Quote:
Auliya (awlia) is an Arabic word usually translated as friend, helper, supporter, patron or protector.[1] It's often used to designate the status of a saint. For example, the famous Nizamuddin Auliya became known as such after his religious contributions. One of his sayings also demonstrates the use of the word Auliya to designate sainthood: "The love of Awlia (saints) is stronger than their reason."

wikipedia

and its singular form, "wali":

Quote:
Walī (Arabic: ولي‎, plural Awliyā' أولياء), is an Arabic word meaning "custodian", "protector", "helper", or authority as denoted by its definition "crown".[1] "Wali" is someone who has "Walayah" (authority or guardianship) over somebody else. For example, in fiqh, a father is wali of his children. In Islam, the phrase ولي الله walīyu l-Lāh[2] can be used to denote one vested with the "authority of God":


Note "authority of God" - and indeed 5:55 goes on to use the same word (wali) to tell muslims God is their only "wali". Using your misinformed logic, this is saying that muslims cannot even have muslims as friends.  Cheesy

I see. That must be why the Shi'ite Assad family rule a majority Suni nation like Syria. And versa vice versa all over the Middle East and Central Asia. Which Islamic party rules Kazakhstan? Or Turkmenistan?

No one knows, no one cares. There are a small handful of Islamic party-led governments in the world today. The rest are garden-variety military regimes and constitutional governments, just like anywhere else.

Demokracy, innit.

gandalf,

You cannot really explain to them the differences between wali and sahib for instance, because English has no such variety when it comes to shades of semantics for such a concept as "friend". To the English speaker, there is just "friend", the various different forms of friend are not really perceived by the English-only speaker. This is a defect in the English language, and you should not bother wasting your time trying to explain it to them, as they have no basis on which to understand it.

I've tried numerous times, and just wasted my time.

of course muslims come in all walks of life, and all shapes and sizes. The two largest muslim populations in the world live in thriving democracies. Despite this undeniable fact, freediver insists on applying a simplistic "one-size-fits-all" approach, fantasising that all muslims over the world are all perfectly in step, and have exactly the same ideas and attitudes on how they must behave (all evil of course). We have a word for this - its called stereotyping.

Quite. I am now learning arabic because this constant argument about what the quran says purely based on its English translation has always been inadequate to me. Its unfortunate that these people do not share in any of this genuine curiosity and desire to learn - even though they "debate" these things ad-infinitum. Its quite sad really, that such people are only interested in point scoring and "winning" debates, as opposed to discussing and debating with an eye on educating themselves and actually getting something beneficial out of it.

Do you know what the difference is between a garden variety military regimes and a proper Islamic government? I think the difference is that the military regimes shoot you whereas the Islamic ones stone you to death. The reason why those minorities try so hard to rule is often because it is the only way to survive.

Abu for example thinks that Iraq should have a Sunni Sharia government. Not only that - he thinks it is inevitable. He is a bit cagey on the details, but this will obviously not happen democratically, given that it is a majority Shite country. My guess is that it would only happen through a process involving the death of anyone who stands in the way of the Sunni Muslim powermongers. They just have to follow Muhammed's lead.

I quote you all the time freediver, and then you just bring out the old "quote me out of context" chestnut.

If you want a clear link between what you say and anti-islamic bigotry, two examples can be found in this very thread: 1. that all islamic regimes stone to death anyone who disagrees with them, and 2. it is expected for muslims to go around slaughtering non-muslims (and fellow muslims they consider heretics), because in your words "they just have to follow Muhammed's lead". In fact its not just in this thread, you bring up these two themes time and time again.

These two examples are what we can call sweeping generalisations, or baseless accusations, or smearing an entire group of people. It is in fact a text-book case of prejudice, which falls into the bigotry category.
