The world tends to turn a blind eye to the continued distress of a people when the spotlight of the media and the bold headlines desist, but the International Qur’anic Open University has steadied the course, not only dispatching the American Muslim Medical Relief Team (AMMRT) within hours of a catastrophic event, but by providing continuous support months or years after the world has forgotten the tragedy even while victims still suffer.

The American Muslims of the International Qur’anic Open University (IQOU) have received support from the citizens of Pakistan who are outraged after release of details in the latest example of maltreatment by the government of Pakistan towards IQOU staff when attempting to obtain their travel visas. In this latest occurrence, members of IQOU’s American Muslim Medical Relief Team (AMMRT) were harassed, treated harshly and denied approval to travel to a country where these same American Muslims have a known history of humanitarian service that spans over thirty years.

 

Not once has the Pakistani government expressed a word of gratefulness or appreciation for the selfless sacrifice of the Vice Chancellor of the International Qur’anic Open University, His Eminence El Sheikh Syed Mubarik Ali Shah Gilani, and his dedicated staff.

Government representatives and delegates representing worker and employer organizations attending a United Nations conference recently called for more rights for domestic workers: clear information on terms and conditions of employment, reasonable hours of work and rest, and freedom of association, according to a UN News Centre report.

The value of the UN International Labor Organization’s resolution to the millions of men and women forcibly trafficked and coerced into servitude will likely be very little. This has been seen in the steady increase of modern slavery despite the number of global mandates in the past on the subject. The crisis has been heightened by the increase of displaced people --those most vulnerable to human trafficking-- in direct proportion to the increase of armed conflict around the world.

Last month on World Refugee Day, Mans Nyberg of the United Nations' Refugee Agency (UNHCR) told Voice of America (VOA) the thousands of people uprooted by the uprising and conflict across the Arab World make this year especially poignant. "It's basically the last desperate move you make when you don't have any other option," said Mr Nyberg.

 

Nyberg’s statement is critical as, out of sheer desperation, these same refugees are often enticed into a better life across borders, one free from war and poverty, only to be sold into modern day slavery.

As the head of a family largely comprised of US citizens, Imam of Muslims of the Americas Inc; Vice Chancellor of the International Qur’anic Open University; founder and Editor–in-Chief of the Islamic Post; and founder of the United Muslim Christian Forum, I am often called upon to explain Islam’s position on terrorism, suicide bombings and Islam’s compatibility with democracy. The growing threat of violence in the world has accelerated the urgency to uncover the truth of the massive conspiracy of 9/11 that launched a widespread conspiracy engendering “Islamophobia”, which if left unabated, will certainly destroy America and the world as we now know it. Searching for answers to the 9/11 hoax from reliable sources, the research department of the Islamic Post evaluated a July 4, 2011 article entitled, “Inside Job: Seven Questions About 9/11” and a follow-up piece titled “Inside Job:  More Proof of 9/11 Duplicity,” written by an American patriot, distinguished scholar and retired US Marine Corps Captain, Professor James H. Fetzer, PhD, and published for Veterans Today.

(IP) –Watergate journalist Carl Bernstein highlighted the unscrupulous world of Rupert Murdoch’s News Corporation in a Newsweek article, “Murdoch’s Watergate?” Bernstein hammers the naive as such: “The hacking scandal currently shaking Rupert Murdoch’s empire will surprise only those who have willfully blinded themselves to that empire’s pernicious influence on journalism in the English-speaking world. Too many of us have winked in amusement at the salaciousness without considering the larger corruption of journalism and politics promulgated by Murdoch Culture on both sides of the Atlantic.”

UTICA – The United Muslim Christian Forum, a delegation of American Muslims, were invited as guests of the Utica, New York Community of Sufi Muslims which hosted a  Milad Program at the Radisson Hotel recently.  Although the Burmese Muslims spoke a completely different language, the UMCF members understood the language of the Qadri Order, the language of Sufi love, as they enjoyed the ceremony.

Fulfilling our commitment to serve humanity, the International Quranic Open University (IQOU), under the direction and guidance of His Eminence Vice Chancellor Syed Mubarik Ali Shah Gilani, will once again send forth competent students to provide assistance to our less fortunate brothers and sisters in Africa, a continent fraught with poverty, illiteracy, disease and high mortality rates.  Mali, one of the poorest countries in Africa, has been selected to serve as the launching place of IQOU’s newest project: Mali Health And Development Initiative (MHDI).

Hakima Fatimah Ash-Shakur of Aliville, Georgia, and Mahmoudou Sidibe and his family, from Montreal, Canada, will be departing for the West African country to begin work on the project in the coming months.

Islam has long been present in West Africa, with a long-standing Sufi tradition.  Due to this history, Mali represents a great base for IQOU to begin its work. Over the centuries, these Islamic spiritual orders were very instrumental in establishing true Islam.

The Taliban has denied responsibility for twin bombings in June at a crowded market in Peshawar, misleading the public in their claim, “We do not target civilians and mosques.” The latest extremist attack killed at least 35 people, wounded more than 100 others. 

The event was reminiscent of prior attacks involving the Taliban, including the assault on Sufis praying at the tomb of Hazrat Data Sahib in Lahore one year ago. The teen-aged suicide bomber whose vest failed to explode fully said he was told by his Taliban handlers, ‘These are the infidels. They are not doing what Muslims should do. Anyone who kills them will go to heaven,’  Mubarak Ahmed, a senior Dera Ghazi Khan police official handling the investigation, told the LA Times.

To head off the violent deaths that have been wracking Pakistan, it is important to gauge the areas where the poisonous venom of terrorism has infiltrated the country, as well as the source of the snake-like ideology infiltrated the country.  Necessary also, is tracking the source of the snake-like ideology .

His Eminence Muhyiddin El Sheikh  Sayyid Mubarik Ali Shah Gilani al Hasani wal Husaini wal Hashmi Al Mujadid was asked, “Who is this person, Dr. Tahirul Qadri, claiming to be Sheikh ul Islam?”  His Eminence replied, “He [Tahirul Qadri] is a fake Qadri who came here and introduced a Pakistani brand of Islam.  No one receives this charlatan as Sheikh-ul-Islam. Pakistan is full of thousands of people, like him, who pretend to be scholars and Sufis. They cheat people in the name of the Qadri Order.”

His Eminence Shah Gilani added that Dr Tahirul Qadri had been warned about defrauding the public some fifteen years ago, as mentioned in an article in the New Baghdad.

His Eminence further stressed, “Does not he know that in Holy Islamberg, New York, in the Jamia Tajalli Azam Qadriyya Baitullah, the miraculous manifestation of Allah, the Most High’s, Divine Name, has been shining for the past ten months? Why doesn’t he pay homage? True Sufis are aware of the proper ethical decorum and protocol. These pious men and women know that one’s rank and status will be raised or lowered by honoring or disrespecting the signs of Allah, the Most High. One perfect Sufi guide, who came certified with divine manifestations and miracles, was made Khalifa and Naib of the Holy Rasul (peace be upon him) in his presence, by his hand, in the Darbar Sharif, Holy Court.”

Osama bin Laden has no one to blame but himself that he was a pawn of the intelligence community for decades, inevitably to be discarded, shot in the face, his body weighted down and cast to the bottom of the sea.

The parallel of bin Laden is mirrored in the annals of history, with the founder of Osama’s terrorist creed: Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab of Najd. It is necessary to comprehend bin Laden’s Wahhabite origins in bin Abdul Wahhab to truly understand what needs to be done to destroy the modern terrorist allegiance.

Taj Mahal is regarded as one of the eight wonders of the world, and some Western historians have noted that its architectural beauty has never been surpassed. The Taj is the most beautiful monument built by the Mughals, the Muslim rulers of India. Taj Mahal is built entirely of white marble. Its stunning architectural beauty is beyond adequate description, particularly at dawn and sunset. The Taj seems to glow in the light of the full moon. On a foggy morning, the visitors experience the Taj as if suspended when viewed from across the Jamuna river.

The village of Owego, in upstate New York, nestled along the tranquil Susquehanna River was the serene backdrop for the United Muslim Christian Forum’s majestic 4th Annual Milad-un-Nabi Interfaith Program, commemorating the auspicious birth of The Seal of the Messengers, Muhammad Mustafa, peace be upon him. His coming was foretold by the Anointed One, Jesus, son of Mary, (peace be upon him) in the Gospel of Barnabas. The Holy Last Messenger, Muhammad, is historically known for formulating the first charter on human rights, dispelling the darkness of polytheism, and raising society from the grip of self-oppression and ignorance to a status of sobriety, honor and integrity. By his life example, peace be upon him, hearts are turned - making tyrant into merciful ruler, sinner into saint.

 

The celebration of the blessed birth of The Holy Last Messenger, peace be upon him, came three months after the celebration of the noble birth of Al Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, peace be upon him, also hosted by the United Muslim Christian Forum (UMCF) in Binghamton, NY.

The Vice Chancellor of International Qur’anic Open University at Islamberg, New York, and chairman of the Abdul Qadir Gillani Institute of Sufic Sciences at Islamville, South Carolina scientifically demonstrated the miraculous powers of Holy Qur’an. He has proven the healing effects of Holy Qur’an on human and non human beings, as well as plants.

This is a rebuttal to extremist Wahhabis who deny the miraculous powers of Holy Qur’an and bring a lie against Almighty God. They also bring lies against our great Sheikh, who helped Saudi Arabia to solve their problems via Holy Quran. When the government of Saudi Arabia accepted the challenge of the World Health Organization (W.H.O.) to demonstrate the healing powers of Holy Qur’an as a means of alternative remedy for incurable mental and physical diseases, their scholars such as Sheikh Abu Sadir Maudoudi made excuses and refused to come forward and assist. Then our Sheikh, El Sheikh Syed Mubarik Ali Gilani Qadri El Hashmi, came forward and accommodated their request, accepting the challenge of the W.H.O. The results: patients suffering from various previously incurable mental and physical diseases were healed. This is because of the miraculous power of the Holy Qur’an, the final Divine Revelation from Almighty God. It was in Saudi Arabia that our Sheikh and great Sufi Master was declared Imam of Sufic Science.

Those interested should read the books Qur’anic Psychiatry and the Ultimate Fraud of the Freudists, available at the bookstore in the village of Islamberg, New York. The following is an excerpt from Qur’anic Psychiatry, written by El Sheikh Syed Mubarik Ali Shah Gilani, which explains the scientific experiment that undoubtedly confirmed the healing powers of the Holy Qur’an; followed by the translation of an article by Hamaad Al Salmi containing a report on the success of Qur’anic Psychiatry by the Saudi Arabian Government in the Daily Alnadawa:

What is now  known as the “burqa ban” will become law on April 11. French Prime Minister Francois Fillan will see to it that the approximately 2,000 or so Muslim women do not have a choice in donning the face covering known as niqab in any place deemed public domain as defined by government officials. The burqa is a one piece garment that covers the contours of awoman’s body from head to toe; it has a detachable niqab that covers the face, with the exception of the eyes, and it promotes modesty and morality in its wearer. Its colors vary according to culture and preference of the women in different geographical areas.

The greatest miracle in the history of mankind, a manifestation of the One God Almighty’s personal name, Allah, is still present on the wall of Masjid Qadriyyah Jamia Tajalliyat Azzam in the village of Holy Islamberg in Hancock, New York after first appearing over seven months ago in three dimensional style Arabic script of bright light (Noor). The significance of this event is that it has happened right here in North America, a Divine Act which has not graced even the holy sanctuary in Makka tul Mukkaramah, the Kaaba. This miracle, first manifested on August 2, 2010, is The Almighty’s response to the hundreds of worshippers who engaged in a most intense supplication to Almighty God; and serves as a sign of its acceptance, a warning to the oppressors and glad tidings to the believers of One Almighty God.

The newly renovated mosque, not surprisingly, funded by Saudi monies, suddenly became unavailable with doors locked- relegating the celebration to a meager recreation room.

 

The Milad program was orchestrated by Maulana Nur Muhammad, an American Muslim Association member who was treated  disrespectfully when he demanded to know why the  Holy Last Messenger Muhammad, peace upon him, was being treated in such a blasphemous manner. It was a surprise to all that the program would be locked out of the mosque. A renowned speaker and scholar, Dr. Faruqi, voiced his outrage and gross dismay that an observance dear to the hearts of millions of Muslims would be denigrated in such a flagrant manner by the consignment  of the festivities to the mosque proper.

Born Christopher Nicholas Sarantakos, in Long Island, NY, Angel is reported to have been first introduced to magic at age 6 by an aunt, who taught him a card trick.  From this his interest grew, to the point where he chose to become a professional magician, over attending university. Now aged 45, Angel has developed quite a following. Presently, he has a showCriss Angel Believe in Las Vegas, Nevada, in which he has collaborated with Cirque du Soleil. He also markets a magic kit online with promises to teach hundreds of so called illusions. A special added incentive to order his product is the promise to reveal the ‘Secret to Levitation.’

Muslims take great pride in attaining the treasure of knowledge, inspired by an Islamic tradition [hadith] that says, "Seek knowledge, even unto China." The quote points to the importance of seeking knowledge, even if it means enduring the hardship of travelling far distances. At the time of the Holy Last Messenger  Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, China was considered the most developed civilization of the period. Islam in China began during the caliphate of 'Uthman ibn Affan, upon him mercy, the third caliph. After triumphing over the Byzantines, Romans and the Persians, 'Uthman ibn Affan, dispatched a deputation to China in 29 AH (650 C.E., eighteen years after the Holy Last Messenger, peace be upon him, passed away), under the leadership by Sa'ad ibn Abi Waqqaas, upon him mercy, Nabi Muhammad's  (peace be upon him) maternal uncle, inviting the Chinese emperor to embrace Islam.

(AMMRT)– “We do not recognize Pakistan as an Islamic country,” said American Muslim Medical Relief Team (AMMRT) Field Director, Khalifah Muhammad Atiq Shahid Qadri to the Islamic Post. “They will not even work in the interests of their own people. Funds we could not distribute will be put to good use in charitable and development projects in our homeland, the United States.”

Medical doctors in Brazil remain baffled as to how metal sewing needles were placed inside the body of another two-year old boy from Brazil, with zero evidence of digestion and no signs of an entry wound on the outside of his body. El Sheikh Syed Mubarik Ali Shah Gilani, founder of the El Gilani Methodology (EGM), an innovative method of spiritual therapy and healing, said the rising cases all over the world are a clear sign of the practicing of occultism. “These needles were not swallowed. This is black magic and has become common now in villages of India, Columbia and Brazil”, says El Sheikh Gilani.

During this holiday season, we proudly proclaim that the key to world peace, and specifically, peace in America, lies in the unification of Muslims and the followers of Holy Messenger Jesus, son of Chaste Mary, upon them be peace. This unity will close the door on war, destruction and disease for the world, and for the American people, who have been pushed into Iraq in past crusades. The Holy Qur’an is the only Divinely-revealed Book which confirms the Prophethood of Jesus, son of Chaste Mary, peace be on them both, his virgin birth and the honor that Almighty Allah bestowed upon his blessed, pious mother, Mary.
“And (remember) when the angels said, Oh Maryam (Mary)! Verily, Allah has chosen you, purified you, and [selected]you above the women of all the worlds.” –Holy Qur’an, Surah Al-i-Imraan: 42
