Despite so many years of terrorism in India and now import of all that in the rest of the world, Brits still don’t get it! David Miliband, the British foreign secretary has given a rather forgettable performance in India. He has said on this tour – contrary to the claims and efforts of US officials – that Pakistani state is not involved in the Mumbai attacks .. probably having no understanding of how the entire administration really works there.[1]

As if that was not enough, this idiot now goes on to say that India and Pakistan’s problems are due to Kashmir.[2] Really? If the plans of ISI – Pakistan’s Intelligence Services are checked – then that does not seem to be the case.[3]

In the plans that have now come to light – both at the micro and macro level – ISI believes it can destabilize India by 2020 so badly that there will be a “Islamic Republic of Pakistan” in India by then. The maps target North India and put South India as the “disputed territory”. In another map, Mumbai is termed as Muslimabad by 2012 as its demography is changed completely. The siege is planned via the sea and the land routes. Probably Mumbai Attacks were a rehearsal for the sea attacks.

Such is the naivette of the world and us Indians that we would not believe such a thing could happen.

It is not that one should hate Islam or Muslims or that one has to be racist about there being an Islamic rule in India.. but ask those who ACTUALLY live in Islamic countries – do they even want an Islamic rule?

The Islamic law – Sharia is so repressive and backward that it is obvious that it should be classified as a violation of Human Rights to begin with!!

Just this week, Saudi Arabia’s most senior cleric, Sheikh Abdul-Aziz Al Sheikh (country’s grand mufti) has said that those who say that girls below 10 and 12 years are too young to get married are being “unfair” to them – in fact it is “injustice” to such girls!! [4] Really? The reason why in the normal and civilized world the marriageable age was increased is because both the girl and the boy should have the right to make an informed decision! But in a society and in a law where a girl is treated as no more than a sex object – she should cover herself because a guy with a penis cannot take care of his libido so the onus is always on the woman to take on the burden of the men as well – what can you expect??

If you think this is too much criticism, now look at another pronouncement from the top Islamic body in India – Darul Uloom-Deoband – on how Sharia looks at Talaq or Divorce.[5] It says:

Typing the word ‘talaq’ on an SMS which may not be “sent” or uttering the words ‘talaq’ thrice even under influence of alcohol or in a fit of rage amounts to Talaq or Divorce under Sharia

I know there will be ample “moderates” out there who would try their utmost at refuting this by bringing out some cute verse from the Quran and showing how much the women are respected. Well, recently I was just browsing through the Hadiths – stories of Prophets life narrated by different authorities. And the picture one gets of the women is pretty ugly. See the specific instances below the reference links.

Is that what we want this world to become? Nobody wants war or hatred but an ideology that is inherently repressive and based on hatred and violation of even basic human rights has no place in the modern world. If for nothing else, this is enough reason why we Indians should seriously think and work to avoid an Islamic nation in that region. We are free – even Muslims in India – until India is secular and has a base which is modern. The moment the sick minds of ISI succeed, freedom’s days are numbered in India and the world. Maybe Miliband doesn’t quite understand all this but his own nation is going through such an upheaval itself!

During the battle of Al-Jamal, Allah benefited me with a Word (I heard from the Prophet). When the Prophet heard the news that the people of the Persia had made the daughter of Khosrau their Queen (ruler), he said, “Never will succeed such a nation as makes a woman their ruler.”

==================

Volume 7, Book 62, Number 13o:

Narrated ‘Abdullah:

We used to participate in the holy battles led by Allah’s Apostle and we had nothing (no wives) with us. So we said, “Shall we get ourselves castrated?” He forbade us that and then allowed us to marry women with a temporary contract (2) and recited to us: — ‘O you who believe ! Make not unlawful the good things which Allah has made lawful for you, but commit no transgression.’ (5.87)

=========================

Volume 7, Book 62, Number 16:

Narrated Jabir bin Abdullah:

While we were returning from a Ghazwa (Holy Battle) with the Prophet, I started driving my camel fast, as it was a lazy camel A rider came behind me and pricked my camel with a spear he had with him, and then my camel started running as fast as the best camel you may see. Behold! The rider was the Prophet himself. He said, ‘What makes you in such a hurry?” I replied, I am newly married ” He said, “Did you marry a virgin or a matron? I replied, “A matron.” He said, “Why didn’t you marry a young girl so that you may play with her and she with you?” When we were about to enter (Medina), the Prophet said, “Wait so that you may enter (Medina) at night so that the lady of unkempt hair may comb her hair and the one whose husband has been absent may shave her pubic region.
