The Year of Islam : Events that mattered to the Muslim World 2011
by Nisaar Y. Nadiadwala on Wednesday, December 28, 2011 at 6:18pm
The year has almost ended and many in media are coming out with stories that mattered to them. So I also thought of serving a few of my own observations that happened last year jugjing its importance from the Muslim perspective. Some of them are hit and some flop some exciting and inspiring while some dull. The Times Magazine has anounced " The Protestors " as the man of the year. But which protestors? European or American ? or Indian?
The fire in Tunisia spread in other countries of the Middle east. It followed by a the spring spread in Egypt, then in Libya..... Similiar things happened in the Europe with 85 cities coming out on the street to protest against the capitalism the crowd was as large as those in the Arab streets. The crowd in Tele aviv of Israel was around 2oo thousand..and the crowd in Moscow too ran up to half a million and in Indian cities too.. but none of them got the government or the system replaced by the better one except the Muslim countries. They not only drove away their heads of the state or killed them but also got many Islamists into the parliamentElections in Egypt and the Islamic parties were elected by the people of Egypt to rule over them.. What a Democratic victory of Islam!!! ? Communism is almost dead and capitalism is still killing but Islam is winning..
In India ,the confession of Aseem, the hardest liner Hindu fanatic, who gave up his hard line and submitted to the court confessing of his involvement in Mecca Masjid Bomb blast along with three other blasts. The news is important because the Muslim youth arrested innocently,served the old man Aseem in the jail and became a reason to inspire the man to confess his crime. Among the best example of how Islamic sword of humbleness and character over powered staunchest of the enemies. This is on the top of my list of the most important events related to Islam and Muslims in the year 2011.
The Christian year ends with more news of civil war in Syria.. and lot of killings but US and Nato will not send their army to topple them.. Do you know why? The protestors are Salafis and the goverment is shia...!!!!Threat of an attack on Iran continues but many people are betting against it. For many, Iran, Israel and US are hands in gloves...Allah knows the best
In the month of April, France banned hijab Officially, the result in the other part of the world was : More popularity of Hjab amongthe Muslim women . In the same month Terry Jones finally burnt the Qur'an and the most hostile reactions were felt in Afghan after Hamid Karzai himself screamed at the insult of the Holy Book.
The first week of May saw the news of Osama bin Laden killed by US army, the body was never shown. If you hunt a tiger would you just get rid off its body without showing it to the world ? . With elections in the US around the corner it is obvious that some thing of Rambo style actions would be undertaken by the out going President who does not want to go out.
Killing of Anwer Awlaki : The news of killing od Anwer Awlaki may not have made an impact in the world like the killing of Osama bin Laden, but the message to those are fighting against the western interests was firm : You can be killed any where any time if you are an obstacle to the new world order.
Killing of Gaddhafi: Whether Gaddhafi was good or bad, we leave this debate for the scholars, but his killing has a message. Even the Muslim rulers who are submitting to the western rulers are not safe. As The Qur'an says" the jews and Christians will never be happy with you unless you follow their millat...Surah Baqarah : 120
Peace Conference 2011 :
Many people thought that the yearly grand Da'wah program will not take place this year but Allah got it done. A peace conference in Mumbai is equal to more than a thousand episodes for Peace TV. There fore the conclusion is that a peace conference in Mumbai means thousands of hours of Islamic knowledge software to be ready for billions of viewers through Peace TV as well as youtube, face boook...
Spread of Islam : Few big names entered in Islam announcing that Islam has no barriers Journalist and broadcaster Lauren Booth, 43 – Cherie Blair's sister – now wears a hijab whenever she leaves her home, prays five times a day and visits her local mosque whenever she can.
Prominent South African Cricket fast bowler Wayne Parnell in a statement announced his conversion to Islam from Christianity.He has also changed his named to Waleed after his conversion to Islam earlier in January this year.
New Dawah stars in 2011:
The Da'wah Horizon enlightened with new stars shining brighter by reaching out to many through youtube. You only have to go to you tube and check the clicks and compare it with my claims. Naumanali Khan, Assim Alhakim and Mohammed Alshareef rose to a new height of honour and respect in the hearts and minds of students of Islam, as more topics of their talks were aired on various channels and social sites.
As the world goes older and Qiyamah comes closer.. Islam grows faster..The year 2011 belonged to Islam..
