QURAN

S II V 219
They ask thee
Concerning wine and
gambling.
Say : "In them is great sin,
And some profit for men ;
But the sin is greater
Than the profit."
They ask thee how much
They are to spend ;
Say : "What is beyond
Your needs."
Thus does God
Make clear to you
His signs : in order that
Ye may consider -
220
(Their bearings) on
This life and the Hereafter.

Puritanism
Another aspect of the religious reform is its personal morality: puritanism. This morality places the isolated individual deprived of leadership at the centre of the decision-making or moral judgement. This way of thinking implies a fundamental shift in the approach to the fiqh. When the individual has to decide in isolation, automatically it puts all social issues out of reach. For example, the issue of the restoration of the Dinar and the Dirham, seen from the perspective of the individual, is a non-issue since it requires a whole community for it to be applied. Thus personal morality means that most social issues are abandoned, especially those that carry the highest political or economic weight (equal to their importance). Only the individual belonging to the jama’a can act in these matters and for that, once more the figure of the leader, the Amir becomes necessary.

The GM Issue

The genetic modification of plants as an issue has proved one of the cleverest instruments of transformation by the banking élite. What it veils from the masses is that land is passing from private (farmers’) hands to that of Corporations operating on the other side of the world. The G.M. issue has to resolve itself under the absolutism of the modern, yet the antique selfishness of the land grab will have been brilliantly hidden.

Please send this URGENT message to US Government leaders to protect your right to know which foods are made from genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Send an email today to the Secretaries of State (Clinton), Agriculture (Vilsack), and Health and Human Services (Sebelius).

They must stop US negotiators at an international (Codex) conference from May 3-7, from pushing an agenda that could make it difficult for anyone, anywhere in the world to label foods as genetically modified (GM) food—or even make non-GMO claims on their product’s label.

Muslims and the Collapse of the Political Class by Shaykh Dr. Abdalqadir...

The new Aristocracy will stem from what Ibn Khaldun calls the ‘Bedouin’ – not desert Arabs, but peoples not tied into a settled social order. They will embody those qualities upon which all legitimate Aristocracies have always been based: nobility, concern for others, and Divinely revealed religion.

Abu Hurayra reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "By the One in whose hand my soul is, you will not enter the Garden until you submit.

You will not submit until you love one another.

Extend the greeting to one another and you will love one another.

Beware of hatred, for it is the ra...zor.

I do not tell you that it shaves the hair, but it shaves away the deen." - "Al-Adab al-Mufrad " IMAM BUKHARIS

"The internal crisis inside the U.S.A. is irretrievable. Even ending its wars will not bring rescue. Its near future will be hispanic, and one hopes, finally, Navaho!"
