Yahya Kamakutty, a product of Madrasas caught red handed--------------- what more you want Deobandi?
By Kulamarva Balakrishna
Vienna,Monday,February 25,2008: I have news
from India that revivalist Deobandis of Islam near
New Delhi have made a declaration as =terrorism=
is un Islamic.That has been made under pressure
not out of conviction of plurality of Islamic Umma
meaning Republic.That is not enough.It has been
done to hold on to mullah authority on general
public life of individuals born without choice in
Muslim families.First and foremost,they have to
accept for themselves human identities which
has implications of human sense of belongingness
out of choice.That is to choose one´s own friends,
mates,life style, philosophy, profession etc and
integrate oneself into a normal modern society in
public life leaving politics of managing public
affairs outside of the religious tenets.Religion is
an individual affair it is not a crowd of human sheep
being guided by a foolish bearded man!If there is
no the crowd, but only responsible individuals
then we can accept Islam is against terror.
Look at Karnataka, how come Muslims become
the part of the sheep practicing modern fire arms
on the ruins of twelfth century hoysala temples?
They have the inspiration and approval of mullahs
and madrassas! Now I am aware the declaration
is now being sold as =anti terrorist fatwa=. It
served to distance mullahs from those who are
caught red handed.They belong to the authoritarian
mullah umma!,what you call Jamat.They did not
practice fire play on own volition since in Islamic
Umma individual vote allowed in a democracy is
grabbed by the Umma to be handled by its so called
spokesperson, mullah who thus holds all 150 million
Indian muslim votes.That was the threat to Taslima
Nasrin.There is no vote gathering in sand land
custodian of holy places of King Abdullah´s Saudi
Arabia.There is no respect there even to the
mother of Islam,Khadija bint Khuwaylid,who gave
employment and then married to bear the child of
the later Prophet!The Mullahs´ denounce singing
of Vande Mataram degrading the true mother of
Islam.
=Denouncing terrorism in all its manifestations,
top Muslim groups in India on Monday adopted
a declaration calling it "un-Islamic" and terming
it against the Islamic principle of "peace"
The declaration adopted by the organisations at
a meeting in Deoband on Monday, however, also
criticised attempts to malign Muslims and
madrassas.=
If one looks at the above declaration, there is a
clear resentment expressed against individual
rights of choice.Period.There is no compromise
that love and democracy are based on voluntary
will.Any Islamic tenet to be accepted by the
rest of humans in the world should be based
on voluntary choice of the individual within
Islamic families or outside.Let the mullah keep
himself to leading prayer in peace of mind.
Let him not arrogate himself the authority
of imposing any religion at all.We are in the twenty
first century. Not in the eighth century.
The occasion of the declaration was the
conclusion of an =Anti-terrorism Conference
organised by Islamic Seminary Darul Uloom
in Uttar Pradesh's Deoband town was attended
by clerics, scholars and religious leaders from
several sects and groups across the country=.
=Islam is a religion of mercy for all humanity.=
Why mercy? Show understanding for another
person,accept him/her.He or she does not have
to depend your =mercy= donation,charity or
the Hindu passive =tolerance= for that matter.
Again period.Let the individual to be and free.
Let there be no =fatwa=whatever.
=Islam sternly condemns all kinds of oppression,
violence and terrorism. It has regarded oppression,
mischief, rioting and murder among severest sins
and crimes," said the declaration, adopted by
over 10,000 participants=.
The above statement holds all mischief. Islam is
an idea expressed by individuals.The group is
reflective of a sense of belongingness not cut
away from the rest of humanity.If that is reiterated
by the declaration we make a forward movement.
Without that forward movement there is no way
avoiding conflicts.Do accept man lived before Islam
and would continue to live after Islam. Accept also
Khadija bint Khuwaylid was a woman who nursed
the new idea with the man propagating the idea.
That is why when I sing Vande Mataram, I think
of Khadija, the Prophet´s motherly wife.Why you
grudge it?This acceptance alone will make woman
free,under Islam.No less.That will make girls like
Taslima Nasrin and that charming pride of India
Sania Mirza, loved human beings not covered by
mullah´s =mercy=. Full freedom for these inheritors
of Khadija´s values are what required.
We are as humans globally concerned that a part
of us seek separate identity with authoritarianism
instead of a living on consensus.We have seen in
Islamabad the Mosque called Lal Masjid attacked
by the soldiers for liberating it from the terrorists.
These were not death caused by implication but
by proof.These were measures of an unpleasant
nature to protect the larger constituency of the
human nation from mere obscurantists wielding
weapons that were not available to the Prophet
of the Religion stored in mosques and madrassas!
If you want to stick to Islam of those days of
Prophet why do you not use the weapons
of those days, I mean camel bones, you humbug?
Who brought explosives to Ajmer an open place
of pilgrimage where no one needed permit to go
and help himself spiritually even without a
label being a muslim(end)
Comment:Ampbreia from the United States of
America
Absolutely so! I had the same reaction.
Ampbreia,Redmond,WA,USA.
comment:Prof.K.P.Rao,Manipal
some light. I thought your bias towards
Hussain, Sonia and Sania will make
you think otherwise.
My response:
Thank you Prof.Rao, first there are
levels.Second an intellectual remains
non-aligned but concludes on the basis
of merit.Hussain,Sonia,Sania and other
other preferences are to be seen in
context of different levels of realities
and interactions of events.Crowds and
mobs do not think.An intellectual can
not afford to follow crowds of sheep.I am
not a changed man.I have expressed
similar views before.You may have
missed them for subjective reasons.
I hope I die after giving the insights
into Yoga Sutras. I am now only
elaborating the 20th sutra of the first
samadhi pada.I thank you once again
for reading what I write and giving
comments.
All the best,Kulamarva Balakrishna
