ImamsOnline is an endeavour of the CEO of an organisation named Faith Associates which is (or has been) a recipient of PREVENT funding. https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/prevent_programme_in_wandsworth It all makes sense now doesn’t it! I find it puzzling why Imams Online invited a member of the Quilliam Foundation to this event. Yes, the the same Quilliam foundation who are on buddy-buddy terms with the anti-Islam Henry Jackson Society, Quilliam, whose chairman is mates with Ayaan Hirsi Ali, and who produce secret reports for the government listing mainstream Muslims as extremists. It can’t be a secret to anyone who follows news in the Muslim community how uniformly reviled Quillam are. So why would you invite them? https://peacebruv.wordpress.com/
nothing wrong on posting it here - Khayr just thought it may be more useful (for the awaam e ahl us sunah) if you highlighted it on facebook seeing that you have a large following within 'imaam' omar hayat`s student circle...
What's wrong with posting it here? Yes thats me in the picture next to him which he asked for... school-boy error... i guess Molvis will be Molvis... Ill learn the hard way.
Is not this the same 'Imam' Omar Hayat that is best friends with 'Imam' Aijaaz Shaami and whose praises you were singing on facebook? why don't you bring this matter to 'Imaam' Aijaaz attenion rather than posting here.
this is probably government funded so the magazine will say what the kuffar want us to hear. hence, true Islamic concepts of jihad and khilafah won't be presented. --- as for hamza: maybe the imams felt it wasn't the time or place to raise the perennialism issue. I hope at least one of them got his email ID off him so that we can get answers. won't hold my breath though. followers of these imams keep asking us to ask the imams privately about hamza - as if they don't know the issues with him!
Bettet of sticking to the hardcore ulama like sunni dawat e islami, dawatieslami,taajushariahs mureeds/maulana kalim/hussain/mufti zahid..and other staunch scholars, the scholars who are there taking pictures are complete sell outs..they are FAME FAME FAME! Tha dr masood hazarvi or wateva gives speeches in shia places, thinking hes next Dr Jhangvi.. Imam asim every1 knows
is 'imams online' an exclusive group for select imams? do they choose only those imams who they know will be awestruck by hamza and vie for a photo op with him? are other scholars who don't fit this bill not 'imams'? what happened to equality?
This is exactly what has been foretold by Rasoolullah (Swallallahu Alaiyhi Wasallam) about the end of times. Ignorants will be delivering speeches and people will flock to listen to them. None of these people would even have been classed as "ulema" during the earlier times let alone be allowed to deliver speeches in the masajid!
The Haqiqah is that most of these clown including Mark are not real Ulama. The new craze is Shakes claiming 20 plus years of solid theological training. They really are 'Imams Online' who have no support at the ground level. Your local Miana has more clout than these lot. Will be interesting to hear what Mark had to say and if his gibberish went further than his Oxford speech.
This is about approval from someone like Hamza. It is about the post colonial mind set. It is about racial inferiority complex. Hafiz Ghulam and others need the approval and acceptance of people like Hamza and Keller. It helps in feeling intellectually fulfilled and similar to those who are superior. This is also to do with money.. http://www.amazon.co.uk/White-Privilege-Paula-S-Rothenberg/dp/1429233443 Why doesn't Yaqubi or Jifri ever lecture to Arabs in UK? When the late Dr Booti would visit UK he would lecture to Arabs.
