To The Pseudo Men In Our Ummah

To The Pseudo Men In Our Ummah: "Sheikh Ibn Al-Juzee, a respected Islamic scholar, a writer, and a historian, was living at the time and was the Imam of the Amawy Mosque, in Damascus. On one Friday, Ibn Al-Juzee delivered a very moving Friday sermon that had a very unique and dramatic ending.

Here are the most important excerpts from his sermon that day:

“Oh people : How have you forgotten your religion, abandoned your glory, and stayed put instead of rushing to defend the religion of Allah? Are you content with staying behind? Did you think that glory and honor were meant to belong to the Kafirs? Didn’t you know that Allah made glory and honor to belong to Allah, his messenger, and the believers? Don’t you feel any pain when you see the enemy of Allah and your enemy step with his filthy feet on your land which was made yours by the blood of your fathers? Don’t you feel ashamed that the filthy Kafirs humiliate you and use you as slaves while not too long ago you were the masters of this world? Don’t your hearts shake and don’t you feel any anger seeing what the enemies of Allah are doing to your brothers and sisters? How could you see your brothers and sisters here and in neighboring towns being tortured and humiliated and continue to eat, drink and enjoy life?

Oh people, war is going on, the caller of Jihad is calling on you, and the skies have opened their doors (to receive those who would be martyrs). If you are not capable of answering the call for Jihad, get out of the away then, step aside, and let women do the job for you. In the meantime, you may go home and reach for makeup kits and put some on your faces. Go ahead and reach for the Makahils (special tool that was used to beautify the inside of women eyes with a black paste called Kuhl). You are women with turbans and beards, are you not? If not, then get out of here to the horses, and here are the bridles for them (horses).

At this very moment, Sheikh Ibn Al-Juzee threw a package on the floor of the Mosque, and then asked the sitting worshipers: Do you know what that is? Do you know from what material the horse bridles were made? He then answered his own question:

These bridles were made by women from their own hair as they do not have anything else in their possession to offer you. I swear by Allah, these are braids of hair from women whose hair was never seen by the eye of the sun. The women cut off those braids because romance time has ended and war time has begun. The holy war in the cause of Allah first and to defend our land and dignity second, has begun. If you cannot control the horses with these bridles, then take the bridles home and use them to beautify yourself. Haven’t you any dignity left?

The sheikh then turned his head away from the worshipers and let his eyes gaze throughout the Mosque and started to shout:

“May the pillars of this Masjid sway freely, may the gravels separate and scatter with force and may hearts burn with bruises and pain, as men have given up their manhood.”

A Year Later

“After the recent attacks on the United States of America, its leaders have indicted us and accused us for standing behind these events. We are accustomed to America’s accusations as we are blamed on every occasion, even though America has many enemies. On this occasion, I confirm that I did not do this action that appears to have been done for personal motives of America. I reside in the Islamic princedom of Afghanistan and have sworn allegiance to the Prince of Believers, Mullah Omar, to obey all the laws in Afghanistan. Mullah Omar does not permit these kinds of actions from Afghanistan.”

New Trojan Blocks Porn Sites

CAIRO, September 8, 2005 (IslamOnline.net) – A new program that is making the rounds in the Internet appears to be on a moral mission by blocking porn Web sites, security research firm Sophos said on its Web site.

Instead of snooping for sensitive financial information or secretly taking control of an infected computer, the new program, called Yusufali-A, monitors Web surfing habits.

It watches which Web sites Windows users visit by examining the browser's title bar.

If it detects a word such as "xxx" or "sex" it minimizes the activated window and pops up a message with a verse from the Noble Qur'an in Arabic, English and Persian.

If the offending site is not closed, a button labeled "For Exit Click Here" will appear.

Moving the mouse to that box will lock it in and the program displays a message reading "Oh! NO i'm in the Cage" and force the computer to log-out.

Sophos, a world leader in computer security for 20 years, said it first detected the new program in Iran on September 4, 2005.

Moral Mission

Other than chastising adult Web site surfers, Yusufali-A appears to cause no serious harm to infected systems.

While Yusufali-A is unremarkable from a technical perspective, its moral tone sets it apart from other malicious software.

"Unlike other malware, it appears this Trojan horse isn't trying to steal money or confidential information, but acting as a moral guardian instead - blocking viewing of websites it determines are unsavory," said Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant for Sophos.

"This Trojan horse may have been written as a joke, or as a serious attempt to clean-up the habits of internet users," he added.

"Of course, it's possible for the Trojan horse to make mistakes and block sites which are not pornographic - such as medical sites, or social sites designed for teenagers."

Unlike viruses, Trojan horse programs do not try to spread to other computers once installed.

Muslim party seeks Islamic law for Australians

Muslim party seeks Islamic law for Australians

THE leader of the nation's first Muslim political party says all Australians should be living under Islamic law dictated by the Koran.

The Best Party of Allah in Australia applied for registration in the ACT yesterday, claiming to provide a political voice for Muslims.

Founder Kurt Kennedy, a Vietnamese-born Muslim convert and candidate in the ACT assembly elections last year, said the party wanted to "implement the laws as stated in the Koran".

"The positive part of sharia law is (about) treating everybody fairly," he said. "I don't think anybody should have any worries about it.

"If they read through the Koran, there's nothing there that will threaten them or threaten their personal life or property."

The new party had almost 200 members but needed 500 to register federally, which was the goal, he said.

"The thing is to have a profile and to defend those who believe in Allah."

People were "living in the dark" and experiencing an unnecessary level of fear of Islam.

The emergence of the Family First Party had showed him that there was a role for religious-based parties. "It's obvious what they do," he said.

"We don't want to hide behind things. We want to go out and say we are believers of Allah, we believe in his religion, we obey his laws as stated in the Koran -- there's nothing to worry about."

Australians who were not Muslims were welcome to join the party, Mr Kennedy said.

"Whether they become Muslims or not become Muslims, because they will see a sensible view not corrupted by lobby groups, a view not corrupted by hypocrisy -- like sending food-aid to Iraq but, at the same time, sending our soldiers there and bombing and killing their children as well."

Mr Kennedy could not guarantee extremists would not join his party but said he thought it unlikely that people with extremist views would want to participate in the peaceful, democratic political system.

"We have a constitution and a process where people fill in an application form and the secretary can decide whether to enlist them or reject them, like any other political party," he said.

The party would promote "moderate politics" and would be neither right-wing nor left-wing.
