Salam Brother (Peace be upon you)
I have came across your clip (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRztbqp-MfU) about the debate and in which you used Shaykh Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri to defend the peaceful message of Islam.
Firstly I congratulate you for making this beautiful video clip. It is very clear that Islam stands for peace and some people due to lack of knowledge can not present this argument.
Secondly I think you choose very good arguments from Dr Qadri’s lecture to counter argument the panellists.
Best,
Shahid Mursaleen
Wa alaikum salaam, Shahid, and thanks so much for your kind comment! I wish more people were familiar with the important work of Sh. Tahir-ul-Qadri.
I completely agree with Shahid Mursaleen. Thank you for your efforts! We need to show them out there the true face of islam through scholars like these.
Spread the word!
Salam my Brother:
I read this article and was greatly moved. It is excellent. I want to repost it on my blog. Thanks very much for posting it. God bless your work. Happy New Year.
Assalaamu wa a3laikum – My friend Amie told me about your blog. Today, I came across an article on CNN that I thought you might find interesting. If you would use this as a topic of discussion, I think it could be quite interesting. Anyway… check out this article…

Btw, I am also a revert to Islam, Alhumdulilah.
Sincerely,

Wa alaikum salaam, Mary. Good to hear from a fellow revert. Thanks much – that was a very good read!
Salaam Alaykum,
Found this website, and was thinking whether you know bout it?
http://www.blessedcause.org/Reviews.htm
and pls dont publish it, since I am not promoting it or anything, (duh)
Salaam..I think that website would be funny if it weren’t real. It has an article called “The Hidden Agenda of Comparative Religion”…
Salaam bro,
I noticed that you did your studies in Indonesia. I’ve been trying to get information to study there too, and apply as an international student from Singapore for their Bachelors programme. I’m looking particularly at UIN and UGM. However their websites and email replies haven’t been that helpful (i.e. not informative, no replies, etc). I would appreciate if we could communicate via email and if I could get some advice/direction from you regarding this. Your help is much appreciated, jazakallah.

Salaam,
You’re doing some great work, especially through your Twitter presence, and there’s not much else I can add that hasn’t been said above.
Except this: thank you for including the link (in your Blogroll) to the word-by-word online Quranic translation. I’ve been looking for a good online source for such a translation and this by far is the best one I’ve encountered.
JazakAllahuakhayr :)
Warmly,
Sarah
