There has not been silence about the Asad Shah murder in Scotland. It deeply shocked the community. Douglas should know better
-
You're right NS, there is no silence.
I imagine no Muslims particularly wanted to discuss the issue with Douglas Murray, why would they?

There hasn't been silence in the rest of the UK, either. DM clearly hasn't been following the media much.

Why is this post titled Islamophobia ?!?!?
BTW
There's been just as much murdering violence of Muslim ON Muslim since Islam was invented !!!
Shia - Sunni - Wahhabi - Sufi ?!!?!??
We've been hearing about what IS are doing to others NOT of THEIR version recently too !!! :o
This has all been going on for many centuries. ::)
If the Quran is so bloody clear then why are there so many groups of differing opinions within Islam itself ??? These are not recent developments either !!

The implication in the article linked in the opening post, trippy, is what could be considered Islamophobic. It isn't accurate and is certainly biased.
It's a great pity there are not more Muslim posters on here, especially on the Muslim Topic, though I don't blame any of them one bit for not wanting to post here.

If there was silence and a lack of condemnation of Muslim on Muslim murders I would agree with the article. But it is not as simplistic and straight forward as Murray pretends it is. I would be interested to know what Murray considers to be silence. The Muslim Council of Britain for example condemned the murder of Asad Shah.
http://www.mcb.org.uk/murder-in-glasgow-mcb-condemns-religiously-aggravated-attack/
Is the problem then that the media widely published the views of the murderer's supporters because it made for a good story but did not widely publicise statements issued that contradicted the narrative the media want to present about Muslims?
I think the onus is on us as individuals to actively investigate the stories we hear or read in order to hold informed opinions and not allow ourselves to be manipulated - whether it is by the media or religious clerics or politicians or any other charismatic individuals.

AGREED !!!!! 8)

Move along, nothing to see here, just the usual islamophobic article.
-
Well said jp
Would be nice to see threads started by Muslims on the Muslim Topic, with other Muslims discussing points of faith from all angles and visitors from other faiths politely asking questions. That was how it was on the BBC. Same in the Jewish topic. I always found it fascinating but when this board started, all the threads were started by Christians and were invariably confrontational.
-
Alas Brownie, irony and sarcasm, not easily seen in places like this.
Do you really believe Muslims would post here to discuss Islam and people would politely post questions? If it was, in my experience it would be a first.
With regard to the article, I think Murray was highlighting how those murders came to take place and the reaction to them, especially the support the killer of Asad Shah received from the public gallery and the reaction of his supporters to the verdict. This is because they fail to understand the enormity of his crime, possibly as they look towards the land of their fathers for an example. A land in which people the same as Mr Shah are frequently beaten or tortured to death while the police, who have been around while this was taking place, fail to take any action. This is because in Pakistan the Ahmadiyya Muslims are not considered to be Muslim and their persecution is supported by state legislation defining the sect as not Muslim, as well as that lovely Pakistani blasphemy legislation which Murray also touches on.
This has been imported here, into the UK and we will never know how many people secretly support or sympathise with the murderer.

I do believe it is possible, it used to be so on the BBC message board; when non-Muslim posters chimed in offensively, the mods took action. It was the same on the Jewish topic. Both were very interesting and informative.
With commitment it could happen but I doubt it will now.
-
Offensively....
Now there's a loosely defined word when it comes to Islam and discussing it.

I think it's fine that Murray links to an article highlighting that the murderer had about 20 supporters outside the court. I doubt this is the first time a murderer or thug who feels justified in killing someone has amassed supporters outside court - but yes it is offensive that 20 people showed up to support murder.
You are correct that Murray has not presented any evidence to show that that there is more widespread support in Britain of the murder. He also decided to ignore the condemnation of the murder from Muslims and non-Muslims - therefore not a very well researched article. What do you think we are meant to make of his selective reporting?
-

Insulting? Would that be a more suitable word?
It doesn't just apply to discussing Islam.
-
I am surprised no one here has picked up on the main inference of the story ie.
When the term islamophobia is used the normal inference is that non Muslims are being nasty to Muslims.
The article was pointing out that the term can also be applied to Muslims being beastly to other kinds of Muslims too.
In fact it seems to me that the majority of beastliness to Muslims throughout the world is being done by other kinds of Muslims... Rather than by non believers as Muslims would claim.

I should have thought that Islamophobia meant fear of Islam and therefore aggressive towards it. Sectarian violence in Islam between say Shia and Sunnis is different and on a par with that between Catholics, Protestants and Eastern Orthodox and mostly an internal power struggle. Muslims are unlikely to suffer from Islamophobia.
-
So how do we refer to what IS have been doing to other sects of Islam apart from their own dodgy one ???

The article had a particular point to make and had nothing, as far as I could see, about people condemning anything. It was more targeted at the "Islamophobia" industry hypocrites.

Did we miss something? SOME Muslims can be horrible to everyone it is their beliefs.
They murder their daughters/sisters.wives and even send them to be human bombs and on suicide missions. It is all in the news.
-
The fanatics murder their daughters/sisters/wives and aren't too fussed if they kill themselves either, we know that.
Of course there is Muslim on Muslim conflict, no-one doubts that, just as there has always been Christian on Christian conflict, including violence in the past.
it's very nasty indeed and should not be airbrushed, after a while everyone loses sight of their original objectives and are just caught up in hatred.
There's no need for any of it and those who have an attitude committed to peace and reconciliation have to constantly strive towards that but it's a long job. When our current problems have diminished, no doubt another one, concerning quite different groups of people, will pop up.

Some Christians say their interpretation of the Bible is valid for all times. Depends on the interpretation, that's my opinion anyway.

Which particular quotes are you referring to Nick? If the quotes are from the Quran, you might want to check who translated them from the Arabic. You didn't post any quotes or names of translators in the Facebook group so it is impossible to gauge if whatever translations you are worried about have a wide following among Muslims or are followed by a minority of Muslims with extreme views or if the translations are made up by non-Muslims.
What attitudes and actions are you worried about? Does the Facebook group identify any specific Muslims with the attitudes and actions that worry you? Or are you just guessing how widespread the attitudes and actions that worry you are? In which case your guess or belief is only true for you and for anyone who holds similar beliefs to you.
-

Yes but who are the Islamophobia industry hypocrites? Who does Douglas Murray specifically want to hear grand-standing" about the murder and how does he know that this person has not "grand-standed" and what is his definition of "grand-standing"?
Murray said "Incidents of ‘Islamophobia’ are really getting out of hand in Britain. In fact there has been such a wave of attacks that it’s amazing that politicians and commentators across the political spectrum, (not to mention all those supposed ‘anti-fascist’ groups) aren’t grand-standing like crazy."
-
If you don't mind me saying, Trippy, you seem to have a fixation for/with Islam. I wonder whom you fixated on before such things as ISIS and 'radicalisation', etc (unless you were a child then), and what you will do in a few years when all this has passed, as it surely will?
I'm not being horrible, just wondering.
-
G
Did you actually look at what this group has said? Please do & see if any 'mis'translation of The Quran or The Prophet's Sayings are incorrect.
Brownie. No all this is just recent but, NO fixation, btw, I've been studying Islamic thought down the ages for a long time & have never read anything that could possibly sway me to consider Islam is The Best Way in any walk of life. And, yes, this attitude is one that Islam boasts of. Please do read as it's a fascinating book & will give you an insight into the ridiculous mentality of IS-ISIS.
Nick
-
Sorry Nick - I just about have time to read stuff posted by people on this forum and some of the articles linked to on here. I don't have time to read stuff posted by the public on a Facebook group about their beliefs about Islam.
It's probably the usual stuff you have copied and pasted before without checking who the translators are or without presenting any evidence as to how widespread the beliefs or interpretations are.
You could try contributing to discussions on here by posting an actual argument in your own words rather than copy, pastes or links to Facebook. If you can manage that without using the upper case or infantile, random, repetitive punctuation that would be great and it might actually be possible to take your posts seriously.

Something I come across now and again is that if there are two verses in the Quran on the same subject the later one is the only relevant one.
In this way a few Muslims seem to be pushing some of the more violent and oppressive hadiths.
Does this veiw have any roots in more commonplace interpretations?
It's one that Anjem Choudary seems to use a lot. Where did he get that from?
Is there something in Islam which gives later verses more importance?
Or is it nonsense?

The Quran mentions in a couple of places that if a verse of the Quran is replaced, it will be replaced by a better verse. This is called abrogation, which i assume is what you are referring to when you say later verses replace earlier ones. There are different opinions amongst Muslim scholars as to which verses have been abrogated and whether verses in the Quran can be abrogated by Hadith or whether they can only be abrogated by other Quranic verses.
Some Muslims think the verses telling the Muslims to fight a war with the tribes of Mecca until they are subdued still applies today and abrogates the verse that states there is no compulsion in religion.
Some Muslims use these verses about a war against the tribes of Mecca to say that any group of Muslims today can take it upon themselves to start wars and that it is their duty to establish an Islamic State by force if necessary. Muslims who adopt this position usually identify with Muslim majority countries that have been invaded or where certain key resources are economically controlled by foreign powers and where there is corrupt leadership, brutal regimes, poverty, lots of unemployment amongst young men.
This position is disputed by other Muslims who think that the verse " there is no compulsion in religion" has not been abrogated and that the verses about war should be read in their historical context rather than applied to all non-Muslims today.

Ok thanks :)
That makes it clearer.
-
Clearer ????
It makes it perfectly clear just what's going on here !!! Very often verses were 'conveniently' sent down to justify certain, shall we say, actions deemed necessary in certain acts committed by Muslims !!! For gains obviously !
''There are different opinions amongst Muslim scholars as to which verses have been abrogated and whether verses in the Quran can be abrogated by Hadith or whether they can only be abrogated by other Quranic verses.''
MMM We can only imagine which they decided were 'appropriate' eh?
Oh and as we're going on about certain behaviours 'allowed' in-by The Quran, just what is the Islamic legal age for a girl to be given 'completely' over to a man old enough to be her grandfather, never mind husband ?!?!!?!?
-
When you say "which they decided were appropriate" - who is "they"?
That's the point - scholars are in dispute about which verses have been abrogated. So different scholars and different Muslims have different opinions. Most of them think the later verses about not drinking alcohol at all abrogate earlier verses about not being intoxicated when you pray but there is no similar commonly held view about the verses about fighting abrogating the "no compulsion in religion" verse.
Presumably people who like to fight or want to raise an army against superior technological fire power will whip up anger and violence by pointing to dead civilians - collateral damage- or oppressive, corrupt governments, and throw out stories of battles and empires of the past and verses about battle to motivate their followers to lay down their lives for a leader or "cause". Bit like all the stirring speeches about patriotism before missiles are launched and civilian lives shattered.
People who think there are better ways to solve a problem and who like stories about Prophet Mohamed as kind and compassionate will want to follow verses about tolerance and restraint.
Why don't you enlighten me by posting the chapter and verse in the Quran about the legal age? That way we can discuss it - I am not a mind reader.

Nick - you do relalise that accusing other people of playing games is a very poor way to try to cover up your ignorance and your inability to make a credible point. You asked me what the Quran said? Why did you specifically ask what the Quran said if the Quran actually has nothing to say on the topic?
All you end up doing is revealing your dishonesty when it comes to your claims of having in-depth knowledge about the religion.
Being precise is debating honestly - whereas what you do is make some vague comment or make stuff up and throw in the word "Quran" or "Sunnah" and link to websites hoping that your lack of knowledge and inability to construct an argument won't be exposed.
Which Hadith (report about what Prophet Mohamed said or did) am I supposed to consider reliable fact? The ones passed down through oral tradition by various people from the 7th century and compiled a couple of centuries after Prophet Mohammed died? Should I also consider as reliable fact the Hadith that were discarded because the 9th century compiler considered them to have an unreliable chain of oral transmission during the intervening 200 odd years?
Because if you look at Muslim websites there seems to be various Muslims disputing the accuracy of some Hadith or another. Which includes Muslims disputing the accuracy of the report, handed down through oral tradition, of Aisha's age at marriage, partly because they think marrying that young doesn't tie in with the reports of Aisha helping in specific battles that reportedly took place soon after marriage.

Yet in my 60 years on this planet I have never known a person travel hundreds of miles to bludgeon another human to death just because they have a different way of believing in Christianity.
Not only that, but there is an alternative culture in the UK, one which would see the murderer being treat very leniantly or not being punished at all. People who see very little, or nothing wrong in his actions. That was quite clear on the day of sentencing.
-
The Murray piece was a swipe at people like (but not exclusively I expect) MPAC (Mossad stole my shoes while I was sleeping) and 5Pillars who were srtaight on the Islamophobia / victim bandwagon, but who also became remarkably silent when it was found out the murderer was an adherent of the Islamic faith and the victim, well he was Ahmadiyya.
-
I agree that there is hatred of Ahmadiyyas amongst certain UK Muslim organisations with links to Pakistan. If this leads to inciting violence against Ahmadiyyas it should certainly be prosecuted in the same way that any other actions inciting violence would be dealt with in this country.
This is a political issue where certain words and phrases are used as political weapons. After Pakistan gained independence Ahmadiyyas initially rose to high government and military positions in Pakistan due to high literacy rates, and were strong advocates of secularism, which earned them some powerful enemies among extremist Muslim political organisations vying for power in Pakistan. A similar situation happened in Sri Lanka after independence from the British Empire, with Tamils holding high positions in the government due to high literacy rates, and Buddhist Nationalism was the political weapon of choice used to unite people into riots and violence against Tamil Sri Lankan citizens.
This article in Double Bind magazine, which features female writers from a Muslim background, some of whom have left Islam and become atheists, explains some of the political issues faced by Ahmadiyyas, and how some Muslim organisations are trying to manipulate the discourse but do not represent the views of many ordinary, non-extremist Muslims.
The truth is that hatred against Ahmadis is endemic and institutionalised among the MCB’s affiliates. KN apologists like the MCB have developed a discourse repeatedly featuring the term ‘normative Islam’. This argument holds that a bigoted attitude towards Ahmadis is mainstream and that an attack on bigotry is therefore an attack on mainstream Muslim views. It is a culturally relativist and ultimately condescending view which argues that Muslims should be judged by different standards to the rest of us.
But arguments for ‘normative Islam’ omit the history of Khatme Nabuwwat and the anti-Ahmadiyya movement. Anti-Ahmadiyya sentiment is a modern, political construction. Before 1974 Ahmadis were considered Muslims by mainstream Sunnis; they worked with them, broke bread with them, and married them. Those who argue that ‘normative’ Islam inherently holds bigoted attitudes towards Ahmadis assume that Islam is timeless, homogenous and immutable; that it has no scope for reform, progress or variation. This is incorrect, as evidenced by changing Islamic scholarship and the many sects that have formed over time.
