After abandoning his far-right party to embrace Islam, a former colleague of Dutch politician Geert Wilders has visited the holy lands in Saudi Arabia to perform his first `Umrah (lesser pilgrimage) in his life.

“If any person told me that I will visit the land of the two holy shrines, I would have told him that he must be insane,” Arnoud Van Doorn told Al-Madinah newspaper.

“Finding Islam is a dream came true,” a tearful Doorn added.


Doorn, a member of the far-right Freedom Party (PVV) has embraced Islam earlier this year after an extensive study into the religion.

He was among party leaders who helped produce an offensive film titled Fitna that linked Islam and the Qur’an to violence.

‘‘காரியங்களின் போது (நபியே) நீர் அவர்களிடம் ஆலோசனை கேட்பீராக (42:38) என்று அல்லாஹ் தனது தூதருக்கு கட்டளை பிறப்பிக்கின்றான். இந்த அல்குர்ஆன் வசனம் ஆலோசனைகளை (ஷூரா) செய்வதன் அவசியத்தை உணர்த்தப் போதுமானதாகும். நபி(ஸல்) அவர்கள் ஏதாவது ஒரு விடயத்தில் முடிவொன்றை எடுப்பதற்கு அல்லாஹ் அல்குர்ஆனின் வசனங்களை இறக்கி வழிகாட்டலாம். அதுவும் இல்லாத போது அவர்கள் அல்லாஹ்வின் உள்ளார்ந்த வழிகாட்டலின் பேரில் சுயமாக முடிவுகளை எடுக்கலாம். தனது தோழர்களின் அபிப்பிராயங்களைப் பெற வேண்டிய தேவை எதுவுமில்லை . அப்படியிருந்தும் தோழர்களிடம் ஆலோசனை செய்யுங்கள் என்ற கட்டளை நபி(ஸல்) அவர்களிடம் ஆலோசிக்கும் பண்பும் இருக்க வேண்டும் என்பதை வலியுறுத்துவதுடன் நபி(ஸல்) அவர்களுக்குப் பின்னால் வரும் தலைவர்களும் பொறுப்புக்களை வகிப்பவர்களும் நபி ஸல் அவர்களை முன்மாதிரியாகக் கொண்டு பிறரது கருத்துக்களை கேட்டறிந்து கொள்ள வேண்டும் என்பதை கட்டாயப்படுத்துகிறது.

வஹீயினால்மாத்திரம் தீர்மானிக்க முடியுமான விடயங்கள் உள்ளன. அவற்றில் ஷூரா செய்ய முடியாது. ஆனால் மனித சிந்தனைக்கு சுதந்திரம் வழங்கப்பட்டுள்ள இஜ்திஹாதுக்கு உட்பட்ட விடயங்களில் ஆலோசனை பெறவும் வழங்கவும் முடியும்.

By Dr RIFAI (NALEEMI) UK

I really advise our readers to read this series entirely before they come to some hasty conclusions. An attempt has been made here to illustrate the biographical account of the Prophet Muhammad a precise and succinct way so that our Non-Muslim readers could enhance their knowledge about the prophet Muhammad without any bias or prejudice

In this series I shall try to introduce the biography of the prophet Muhammad to our Non-Muslim readership. Most of the Non-Muslim people have got wrong perceptions about the life and accomplishment of the prophet Muhammad.   In some cases we can not blame them all for this misperception. This is because they have come to know the biographical account of the prophet Muhammad through the writing of some bias writers toward Islam and Muslims.  Today, misperceptions about Islam and its prophet are wide spread in all formats: Since Prophet Muhammad received his prophethood from Almighty Allah in the cave Hira the antagonism and accusation toward his message began. It is not a new social phenomenon that Islam and Muslims encounter problems and challenges when Muslims reach out with the message of Islam to any Non- Muslim community today, yet, it is importance to know how to face some of these challenges and problems and how to repulse some of these accusations.

Dr Rifai Naleemi

Historical origins of Srilankan Muslims:

It is pathetic that some extremist Buddhist people are protesting against Muslims in Srilanka today for no reason. Muslim people have been accused of many social issues. They have done nothing wrong in Srilankan history and they have been accusing of spreading fundamentalism in Sirlanka . They have been accused of supporting al-Qaida. They have been accused of supporting Taliban. They have been accusing of building more mosques in Srilanka. They have been accused of marrying Singhalese girls. They have been accused of increasing their population. They have been accused of accumulating money by selling Halal food.  They have been accused of forcing Buddhist people to eat halal food. They have been accused of being disloyal to Srilanka. This list of accusations could go on countless. But the entire Muslim community is innocent from all these allegations and accusations. There may have been some misunderstanding in some of these issues and yet, such misunderstanding should be clarified: We all need some clarity of thought on these issues: some of these issues are exaggerated and inflated very much by the some extreme people.
