In the name of Allah, the most gracious, the most merciful China has lately been trying to exterminate the Muslims that live in their country. For a few years Chinese Muslims have been sent to concentration camps that are said force them to eat pork, take of the hijabs as well as other horrible stuff. Iran, a country that is known for wanting to help oppressed Muslims in countries such as Palestine, Yemen and Lebanon. Why has the government of Iran not done anything to stop this atrocity in China from continuing. And don’t get me wrong, I am a supporter of the Islamic revolution and I love Ayatollah Khomeini as well as Ayatollah Khamenaei but I want to know the o…

Kuwaiti markets remove French products from shelves as boycott campaign grows on social media Hashtags on boycotting French products went viral, as social media users condemned the anti-Islam campaign in the European country as the French government has embraced increasingly hostile rhetoric against Muslims recently. Photos and video footage circulating on social media also show Kuwaiti supermarkets emptied shelves from made in France goods. The recent developments followed France’s ordering the temporary closure of a mosque outside of Paris, as part of a crackdown on Muslims following the killing of a teacher who showed his class caricatures of the Prophet Muha…

Is what we see in Bolivia a coup or a legitimate grievance against Morales? He was a pretty left-wing leader, but then he did extend his term in power by ignoring a referendum that rejected a president staying beyond two terms. However, I've been reading statistics about how much Bolivia has improved economically, so I'm wondering if the recent elections were actually fraudulent or they were legitimate? If they were legitimate, then the term limits don't matter because he was still voted in despite rejecting the referendum. What do you guys think? @hasanhh @Sumerian

I heard reports from several news outlets yesterday that there is alot of fear and anxiety in Iran over a potential US attack and that one may be imminent. I am asking brothers and sisters in Iran to not be so concerned with this. I am not saying it is impossible but it is highly unlikely. Here is why 1. As many of you know, the government of the IRI is being extremely cautious at this point, and they should be, given the current situation. I don't see this changing anytime soon. This is the wise course at this time. The US needs at least some support from other nations (like United Kingdom, Germany, etc), at least its European allies in order to attack. This i…

So the latest in the French Charlie Hebdo saga is that a school teacher decided to show an insulting picture of the Prophet ((صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم).) in class, but did ask Muslim pupils to leave if they wanted to. Parents complained and a recent Chechen emigre came round a few days later and chopped off the teacher's head. He had an airgun so the police shot the killler dead. The French are obviously upset. So now we have this. The president of the conference of Imams says that people in mosques should pray for the teacher. Which is a bit weird. If the teacher believed that the Prophet ((صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم).) was beneath his own right to f…

This is the full clip from Trump's recent Phoenix speech. The Republican party is pretty good at throwing up some real fruitcakes, remember Sarah Palin? But Trump comes across as savvy. He's taken a hit for his anti-immigration/anti-Mexican stance, so he brings up an African-American dude whose lost a son to an illegal immigrant criminal. Neat. He's against Obamacare but he leavens that by emphasising that they need to help everyone, even if it angers Republicans. What I can't understand is that if he's candidature fails what will be the knock-on effect on his businesses, because he'll have upset a lot of businesspeople along the way. He pulls no punc…

How is Grand Ayatollah Hussein-Ali Montazeri seen by Iranians a decade after his death? Is he seen in a positive light or negative light based on his opinions about the Iranian Goverment? I don't want a debate on if He was right or wrong. Just what you think is the general opinion.

Since we do not have a thread devoted to Biden news, this BBC report indicates one needs to be started. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-53575883 Joe wants to spend 10s of $Billions to address "inequalities." Comment: of course Biden doesn't say that the basic reason for such "inequalities" in the inner cities is because the Demoncrat/NEA run skools are cwap. Neither does Biden mention that our National Debt is $25 Trillion. Speculation is that commie Camilla Harris is his likely running-mate.

Pakistanis living in Pakistan tend to have a very difficult time hearing about sectarian issues within Pakistan. This is understandable, as white Americans have a hard time accepting they live in a prejudiced country as well. Anyway, not even my own parents believe me when I tell them that "Muslims" in Pakistan hate Shias and want them exterminated. These rallies, death threats, pelting of stones at imam bargas is nothing new. We just have social media to document it now. Pakistan has failed its minorities because of the fundamental nature of its government: Democracy is punitive and oppressive, however, due to Pakistan being a cousin of British colonialism (India), …

The ongoing clash between the Nigeria Army and the Islamic Movement of Nigeria, popularly known as the Shi’ite movement, took a more dangerous dimension as soldiers yesterday raided the residence of the Shi’ite leader, Sheik Ibrahim El-Zakzaky and arrested him. Insiders within the Islamic sect told LEADERSHIP that Zakzaky’s wife, Malama Zeenat; his son, Sayyid Aliyu, and over 300 members of the Shi’ite, including senior members, were killed by the soldiers. Others killed by the troops, according to the president of Media Forum of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria, Ibrahim Musa, in the over 24-hour long raid, included the leader of the Kano Centre and Zakzaky’s dep…

We know from history that shias never got chance or if got couldn't run government for pretty long time.Why Shias couldn't maintain and run their government for long time. Was it because Shias didn't give due importance and seriousness needed for it. Or for them running a government according to their view's isnot important .

Salam aleykoum, I was curious to ask a polemical questions about Afghanistan and that would be in particular interresting to see the point of view of afghans. If one day we talibans take power again in afghanistan or at least a big part of afghan territory (in particular pashtun areas) do you think Afghanistan could split in different territories or some territories could secede from afghanistan and joined other countries ? Like for exemple uzbek territories join uzbekistan and hazara and tajik territories join Iran and so on. Because after all afghanistan is a multi-etnic and unstable country so i think that would be probable scenario. What is your opinion…

In the decades long stand-off between US and IRI, critics of Yankee imperialism cite the origins, not to the Embassy hostage crisis not long after the 79 revolution, but justifiably point to the CIA backed coup against populist prime minister Mohammed Mossadegh in 1953. Seldomly discussed is the alleged CIA links and involvement that the pre-revolutionary clergy had in the coup. Namely Ayatullah Khomeini's predecessor, Ayatullah Kashani. Which appears to be well-documented: https://foreignpolicy.com/2017/06/20/64-years-later-cia-finally-releases-details-of-iranian-coup-Iran-Tehran-oil/ https://nsarchive.gwu.edu/briefing-book/Iran/2018-03-07/new-…

Salam aleykum, With people burning the holy Quran in the name of freedom of speech, with people making insulting cartoons of Rasulullah(S) in the name of freedom of speech, with people losing their livelihood for expressing the Islamic view on LGBTQ+++++ subjects even though they have "freedom" of speech, with people being unable to criticize the regime of israhell due it automatically being labeled as anti semitism, even though they have "freedom of speech" - I think its important to ask: Whos freedom of speech is the western world talking about?

https://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/ny-muslim-man-denied-citizenship-for-handshake-20201018-c2resfc2xjbxvcutwpw7g4xdfe-story.html ...The unidentified man — a 40-year-old Lebanese doctor who arrived in Germany in 2002 — refuses to shake the hands of women for religious reasons. The court in Baden-Württemburg ruled that those declining to partake of handshakes due to a “fundamentalist conception of culture and values” because they view women as “a danger of sexual temptation” were rejecting “integration into German living conditions....” However they want to spin it, the simple fact is that there is no religious freedom in Germany. I would ask the German g…

Establising a network It has been said as long the 313 aren’t collected then the return of imam al Mahdi will also be extended.. trough all the technology we have it’s much more easier to get into a communication with people who live on the other side of the world.. technically we don’t have a reason to not create a network and preparing for his pleasant return. if we would start to create a network than its not really that important to have seen each other in real live... trough social network we can do its actually easier and much more save.. if we Got connected To each other trough socialmedia like;twitter,Instagram,Facebook,tiktok etc... we c…

Salam Aleikom, I recently made a video on Iran and North Korea's friendship and how it began. Feedback is greatly appreciated. You can check out the video by clicking on the thumbnail below or clicking here. How Iran and North Korea became the best of friends in an age of imperialism, and challenged the world. What are the origins of this strange relationship and how does it endure? This vlog is about how Iran and North Korea became the best of friends in an age of imperialism. Information on Iran and North Korea is pretty hard to come by. And there's a reason for that. Both of these countries were born out of revolution and war. They in…

Salam everyone. I remember back in the 2012-2014 era of Shiachat, I use to read a lot of posters from Pakistan saying "India and Pakistan should've never separated. Pakistan was a mistake." With everything that is going on in India. Do you still believe your statement and stand by it If so, what are your justifications for such a stance with the rise of prejudice and Hindu extremism?

Acknowledge the thoughts for what they are: just thoughts that likely aren't conscious ones and let them evaporate away. Don't dwell on them, because that only makes them worse. Believe it or not, I deal with a lot of the same manner of challenges that you do and getting on new medications helped me out a lot, but first I had to see a doctor and unfortunately I neglected to do this for a while and wound up getting myself in some legal trouble due to some harmful psychiatric medications I had been prescribed. Mental health treatment isn't exactly the best science because humans still don't know how the brain functions well enough yet to find a solution that works for everyone; I've once heard medication therapy referred to as "popping the hood on your car, pouring oil on the engine block and hoping that some makes it into the crankcase". I believe this is the truth because I have tried so many medications before I found specific ones and a dosage that would work with the least amount of negative side effects. Another thing I do is meditate. Not with mantras or transcendental meditation, but I sit (or lay) quietly with my eyes shut and I allow my focus to be on my breathing. When thoughts arise, I acknowledge them and let them simply "drift away and pop" like soap bubbles in the breeze. It has helped me to quiet my mind and also helped me to be more "present" and focused when saying my five dailies. -

Salaam Alaykum, I'm sorry to hear what you go through. Don't care about those thoughts. A well known scholar told me that if person have bad thoughts in his/her mind about religion, Allah, etc., he/she should not overthink because it makes it stronger. He said just leave it. Those thoughts gradually go away. It's easy. I had it before, and I went through what you saying. Be relax and it WILL go away. I promise. -
