In the West, there is a category of dai’s, both working with white Muslims or the white Muslims themselves, who understand that without attracting whites to Islam, Islam will remain in the ghetto of minorities. They show friendliness to white people interested in Islam, as well as to white converts, they want them to feel comfortable in a new environment.[Read More…]
Random hypothetical scenario: 1. President X of not-existent Eastern European country Bieloslavatia (or the Caribbean Puerto Tobagahamas) declares that himself and his whole nation are ready to accept Islam, but he will not accept foreigners (Muslims or not, economic immigrants or refugees) from too much different cultures – not on the basis of a delusion of not-existent “ethnic purity” nor[Read More…]
There is no such thing that we are part of a generic nation of “Westerners”. No such people or tribe exists, let alone in Ontario or Perth. We must accept our ancestry which places us as descendants, quite likely, of ‘Īsū, and thus the immediate offspring of Ishāq, peace upon him. It is thus by no means a despicable ancestry,[Read More…]
Regarding this new definition of “refugees”, I might sound controversial, but seeing the big efforts being made by Islamic societies in pro-refugees campaigns, I wonder, how is it exactly an Islamic issue? How, exactly, promoting the migration of Muslims to non-Muslim western countries (mostly dreaming of welfare paradises) – especially with the huge rates of riddah or at least indulging[Read More…]
Some native European Muslims who, like us, do not support the view of Islam as a religion of only non-whites or immigrants, nevertheless believe that we make the mistake by adopting American “racial” discourse in Europe. They believe that in Europe the problem of anti-white racism under the banners of Islam can be solved through the adherence of European Muslims[Read More…]
Islam has divine sources – the Quran and the Sunnah. But its functioning as a religion strongly depends on human and social factors. The way in which we get an idea of Islam, the Quran and the Sunnah depends on which preachers and books we learn about them from, and also on which scientists we are asking for clarification. Now[Read More…]
European Islam – an attempt at operationalisation, an essay by Hamdija Begovic We are constantly hearing about a so-called “European Islam” that needs to emerge if our future presence on the continent is to become conflict-free. By establishing such an Islam, customised for Europe, we will be accepted, it is claimed; it will enable us all to experience a new[Read More…]
In theory, we know that Muslims should be a single political body – the Ummah. In practice, however, we see that the Saudis are at odds with Qataris, the Emirates with the Turks, the Egyptians with the Sudanese, the Pakistanis with the Bangladeshis and so on. Also, Ibn Khaldun explained why, long before the creation of modern nation-states, the Ummah[Read More…]
Last time, we already talked about the fact that the use of language alone is incapable of creating or eliminating an organically rooted identity. This time we would like to touch upon another misconception that the supporters of such a view have. Namely, their notion of language as something spiritual, while blood relationship is considered to be materialistic. [Read More…]
Idealistic illusions and ignoring the obvious reality became the reasons that prevented the leaders of the old format of the European Muslim movement from developing a vital attitude towards the identity problem, which is fundamental for it. For example, one of it’s leaders for years convinced himself and others that for in order belong to Europeans the origin does not[Read More…]
