he had studied iqbal's english books more than you, so he knows what he is saying. although iqbal spoke against democracy in his poetry but in his book he said that modern parliament is adequate substitude for khilafah, which is wrong. this is not disrespect, but truth has to be spoken, no one is free from errors

I like his analysis. he combines political, economic, military dimensions with religious dimensions. while there has emerged a trend that Islamic scholars do not speak about political, economic,etc analysis but he does. as muslims we should appreciate this man because we also have a trend to consider real time islamic explanations as fairy tales and nothing to do with modern world.

Paranoia and conspiracy theories again. Aren't Muslims tired of the them versus us mentality yet ?

this is the fundamental problem, islam is not just going to the masjid n coming back home, the prophet muhammad (saws) has spoken about 'malhama' the great wars, he has spoken about events leading to it, much in detail that even christian scriptures dont have, but people have considered to be fairy tales. this is the problem

 

[Pakistani E]

khilafat kaisay banao gaei, Muslim countries main her gali ka mulla khalifa bana bheta hai. AHahhaha

 

[Indischer]

A pity that rationality, reason and restraint never go hand-in-hand with any Religion. I feel very uncomfortable around these so-called religious "intellectuals" who preach nothing but convoluted, self-centred religious propaganda.

How can any one fail to see that it's because of God's will that every one of us exist and we have no right to remodel any of his creations. Or is God so weak that he needs us to bring down an Israel or an India or a Pakistan???

 

[takeiteasy]

Why he wants to bring India? it is a secular country(or striving to be) which will remain so. what religions teach must be purged from human brains for sanity to prevail. Infidels will brand your reverent sheikh in one word - Terrorist.

while there were so many pakistani intellectuals who could not recognize the real purpose of 9/11 until they came to know through interactions with CIA after 2-3 years, this sheikh was able to launch a book 2 months after 9/11 that the target is pakistan's nuclear plan. he didnt do it because of some angels coming to him, he did it because he studied islamic eschatology. but we have removed religious scholars from political circle. there is a difference between mulla n a scholar!!
