Araz, No one is questioning the Muslim community's right to learn about or teach what some may consider Islamic jurisprudence. I am not going to question the merits of the system but would like to point out that it has not managed to wipe out crime in Saudi Arabia.What is of concern though is...

Well, this Indian Hindu guy had also spend long periods of time in Pakistan. Dhiren Barot Barot was born in Baroda, India, into a Hindu family.[1][3] Dhiren Barot - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia BBC NEWS | UK | Muslim convert who plotted terror Please do not unnecessarily bring religion...

Thanks Durran;) Maybe you have a different experience in Canada but this 'reversion to orthodoxy' is not unique to the Pakistani community in the UK and can be observed to a more limited extent in some other non Muslim communities , for instance, recent arrivals from India are often surprised...

Do I detect a hint of sarcasm?:azn: I am no Iranian but have huge respect for the country (not for their Shiite faith if that's what you are implying) and have even visited it!

@ Cardsharp, LOL..I was just trying to draw the OP's attention to what happens in the rest of the developing world. I think its a fair comparison to make as Indians and Chinese share similar attitudes when it comes to academia, have high levels of corruption etc.. I am no Sinophob...far from it...

No..but I am trying to create a cognitive dissonance in the minds of mainstream Muslims about views held by Wahhabis, which may eventually lead to an isolation and ostracisation of this violent ideology among the believers of Islam. Are you suggesting that its ok for any group, be it in the...

Hmmm..and your point is?? This may provide further confirmation to your dysfunctional belief about all Indians (read Hindus) being devious and dishonest but this is a much more widespread problem across the world than you think.. Particularly in China.. Rampant Fraud Threat to China’s...

Dispatches - Undercover Mosque I posted this video on another thread but felt it deserved a separate thread as many people would have missed it. OK, its 3 years old but there is little to suggest that there has been a radical change (no pun intended) in what is being preached in mosques up and...

Haider, I would be wary of condemning a whole community as 'lazy and losers' but I would agree that the Muslims (primarily Pakistani) in the UK are amongst the least socially mobile of the immigrant communities in the UK. There is certainly a tendency among Muslims in the West to self segregate...

1) Most crimes in the UK are not committed by black people. This is a popular misconception. 2) Quilliam is a reformist movement whilst MCB is full of closet fundamentalists. YouTube - MCB; Inayat Bunglawala Government shuns Muslim Council over link with Hamas - UK Politics, UK - The...

Amen to that bruv:cheers:

There are many conservative muslims who believe that muslims should not submit to any law but the law of God as enunciated in the Sharia. One could argue that its a 'matter of faith' and there is no harm in teaching children this but do you not agree that such a position would be immediately...

Define 'well groomed'. IIRC, students at the Lal Masjid would have been considered 'well groomed' in your scheme of things and we all know how that turned out. Any notional benefit of such a curriculum is far outweighed by the tremendous harm is does to children's perceptions of other faiths...

Muse, what's surprising is the fact that this is being taught to thousands of children in the UK.Also, judging by the content of some of the Pakistani textbooks, I won`t be surprised if the some of it has been funded by the Saudis.Someone had posted a link earlier on the thread to a report by an...

Oklahoma Is Sued Over Shariah Ban A Muslim activist in Oklahoma City filed a lawsuit Thursday challenging a voter-approved measure that bars Oklahoma state judges from considering Shariah, the Islamic religious code based on the Koran and the Prophet Mohammed's teachings, in formulating...

I am sure the CPS would be seriously looking at bringing charges under race hate and terrorism legislation..It may all depend on whether covert footage is actually admissible as evidence in court.

United, the article refers to lessons where students are specifically taught how to carry out amputations..not a history lesson by any stretch of the imagination Here is an article on the investigation from the left leaning Guardian if you are more inclined to believe what it reports...
