TRUE LIES - Misconception About Islam

Author: 
Sajid Iqbal

There are 1.5 billion Muslims in the world. Yep…that means 1 in every 5 person in the world is a Muslim. Did you know that??

And guess what…. Islam is the fastest growing faith in the world (1) but why is it that Islam is the most misunderstood faith today?

Now, when you mention the word Islam today…after the chap has recovered from a nervous breakdown, the first thing that pops in his head is that '…oh yeah…that's that "paki-religion" innit… those dodgy looking blokes with long beards hijacking planes, blowing up buildings and chopping peoples hands….'.

Before you know it the word 'terrorist' and 'backward' will come to mind, women chained to the kitchen sink, guys with many wives and 'they hate Jesus' will be their idea of Islam.

Turkey Of The Month! (May 2001)

Well, over the last couple of months the Russians have been continuing the torture of the Chechens, 7 Serbian soldiers have been charged for war crimes and genocide and the shameful Hindus have been burning the Quran.

But no, the proud winners of this month's award must go to:

Sharon and Bush - True partners in crime.

Both of them have been newly appointed and the first thing on their agenda was to crush the Muslims. The first thing Bush did was bomb Iraq and Sharon couldn't wait to kill more Palestinian Muslims by ordering the blockade. The Qur'an clearly states that the whole non-Muslim world is one and united against the Muslims.

Let me tell all of you a simple duua
After answering the call of nature say Ghaffranaka(1)

When goin in to do the above, don't think twice
Just say Allahumaini auzubika minal khubsi val khubais(2)

Before eating anything, start with Bismillah(3)
And end with Shukur Al Hamdullilah(4)

And on hearing this everyone say Yar Hamoo KullahDiablo

On remembering a bad deed, while cruising in your car
With a sincere heart just repent and say Asthagh-firullah!(7)

Do You Know This Man?

Author: 

What a year, was 570 A.D.
A person was born, a prophet to be
Muhammad (saw), that was his name
People were misguided and that's when he came
He would go on to leave all the idols behind
He was to be an example to all of mankind
Rabbi-al-Awal the 12th, that was the day
He came to this world to show us the way
He was born in Mecca, the holiest place
A life full of challenges he was to face
Abdullah (ra) his father, had by then passed away
Leaving Amina(ra) his mother, in her arms he lay
Haalima Sadia, took over his care
Until he was six, our prophet was there
His mother then died, he was left all alone
Abdul Muttalib (ra) his grand-dad, then made him his own
