The blind men and the elephant. Very important story to learn to look at the whole picture.
Get all the arguments, then decide.
Each touches one part and thinks that's what an elephant is.

What should a modern Islamic State look like ?

Image
                                                  There seems to be some confusion about how a modern day islamic state will look like amongst the Muslims of today. In this article I will try to shed some light on this topic. The examples we have so far are: 1) Kingship phase Islamic state aka the Caliphate Here its basically a hereditary ruling system. The ruler does implement Islam according some madhab that he decides and everyone must accept it. This started when Muawiya forced the ummah to elect his son as the next ruler.

What is Religion and how is it meant to Operate ?

Religion first of all is about thinking and questioning why we are here on this planet and in this existence.

If we find that there really is such a power then we can ask about it. What is its nature. Why has it sent our souls here, to this planet and put us in the bodies that we are in. What is the point? And more importantly has there been any communication from it. Depending on what we find we can then go on different routes. If you choose Islam (the fastest growing religion right now and which the media is actively attacking and smearing), then its book (the Quran) says that there is a very good end point for those...

How to Defeat the Far Right in the UK inshaAllah (one idea)

Image
  First of all we need to have an idea of what all this is all about. This is my analysis so far:  The Basic Idea behind the plan : The Far right say UK is Christian country and we don’t want immigrants especially Muslims What we do is: Actually we are happy to help the uk people become more Christian and return to Christianity as they have moved away from it and towards materialism and loss of spirituality. And what we find is that true Christians today are weak and of weak voice due to the confusion in the teachings but we can advise on how to remove or reduce such confusions so that together we can work to make the UK more Christian, meaning more believing in the Creator and in Jesus peace be upon as well as the belief that we humans are souls rather than bodies, and these souls are brought down to earth (by Angels) and then taken out (again by Angels eg the Angel of Death), when death happens. This life being a test life where our decisions and actions are recorded and get...
