Due to the ever-new modes of transportation and means of communication available today, the world is now known as a global village. In this global village human immigration is becoming an increasing phenomenon worldwide. In almost every part of the globe we find people of different backgrounds, languages, colours, creeds, nationalities and different religious beliefs living together. This diversity, on one side makes our world colourful, charming, attractive and very lively, however, on the other hand the world is facing some challenges for the peaceful and harmonious coexistence of diverse human society.

Many countries have shown their concerns about the increasing immigration and in particular immigration of Muslims into the Western societies. Questions are being raised that is it possible for Muslims to remain loyal to their faith and with their adopted countries? Can Muslims become part of the Western societies?

Once immigrants have settled in a new country, what should be expected of them in terms of their degree of integration with their hosts? This is an issue becoming very debatable and there is a crucial need to bring out the realistic solutions for the better and progressive integration of immigrants.

I understand the concerns of the Western countries, and it is true that under the influence of certain ignorant and extremist clerics, some Muslim individuals or groups have a very prejudicial and irrational attitude towards Western nations and non-Muslims. The truth is that this irrational attitude of theirs has nothing to do whatsoever with the true teachings of Islam and practices of the Holy Prophet Muhammad. Islam has presented such luminous and realistic principles that their implementation can create integration between diverse groups in the real sense.

Before I come to the point of integration of Muslims, it is appropriate to point out two main opposite opinions as far as integration is concerned. There are some who want immigrants to become a complete part of their new culture, even if this means abandoning their customs, language and traditions. The Fourth Caliph of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community very rightly describes the shortcomings of this opinion, highlights the beauty of diversity, he says:

“This would be an attempt on par with turning a bouquet of varied flowers, as if by some wizardry, into just one particular flower. We understand from various societies and social systems and the societal evolution that each newcomer brings with them distinct colours and fragrances. This happens in all countries and happens from all sides. To erase the distinctiveness of the outsider and declare the sole existence of just one ‘flower’ in the bouquet, be it a rose or jasmine or some other flower, but not to allow mutual existence in the bouquet is not the correct way to create compromise and uniformity. This mode of action is contrary to the natural societal evolution and nations cannot gain from it in any way.”

However, the opposite scenario is also unrealistic and impracticable. When immigrants refuse to assimilate into the host culture and cling on to native languages and traditions, they effectively create a sub culture apart from the one in which they live. This in turn creates difficulties for them and leads to isolation.

For a progressive, prosperous and tolerant society, a very realistic and practicable approach is highly essential. As far as integration of Muslims into the Western societies is concerned, it is also a two-way process and both the immigrants and the locals have to play their positive and responsible roles.

Both parties should try to live by the principle of give-and-take and show flexibility and benevolence for each other. Everyone should try his utmost to always put responsibilities and obligations before his rights, and should become the one who gives, and not who always takes. As the Holy Prophet Muhammad, peace be on him, advised that “the upper hand (of the donor) is better than the lower hand (of the receiver).”

I believe that respect towards the law of the land, faithfulness and loyalty with the adopted country is a cornerstone of effective integration. The Holy Prophet Muhammad particularly emphasised that love for one’s nation is a part of faith for any true Muslim. When loving your country is a basic element of Islam, how can any true Muslim exhibit disloyalty or betray his nation and thereby forgo his faith? In terms of Ahmadi Muslims, at our major events all members of the Community, make a pledge and promise to give up their lives, wealth, time and honour not just for their religion but also for the sake of their nations and countries. To be integrated it is necessary to believe the country you live in is your own and you must desire for it to succeed. This is true integration.

Freedom of expression, freedom of faith, equality, justice, human dignity and equitable opportunities also play a vital role in the establishment of tranquil and serene atmosphere.

Mutual cooperation for the common good, sharing and adopting all positive aspects of each other, and joining hands against every evil will also lead to a positive coexistence. Knowledge of each other’s cultures, customs, traditions and local language are also necessary to break the barriers of misunderstanding, fear and isolation. All the people should show mutual respect and tolerance, and care for the sentiments and feelings of others. Their talks and discussion should exhibit the true sense of community and words should be selected very wisely. The rights of poor and needy, the rights of neighbours, the rights of streets, the rights of the community should all be honoured.

The current Head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community explains that: “Muslims have been taught that in order to integrate with their local societies and develop mutual respect, they should seek to learn about all of the good aspects of every society, every region, every city and every country. It is not enough to simply learn about such values, but Muslims must endeavour to adopt them into their own personal lives. This is guidance that truly inculcates togetherness and a spirit of mutual trust and love.”

Better integration also requires that immigrants must enter with a willingness to integrate with the local people, whilst the locals should be ready to open their hearts and display tolerance, open-mindedness and forbearance. They all should try to truly live by these two golden principles that “wish for others what you wish for yourself” and “love for all, hatred for none”, because these are the essence and golden principles for a harmonious and peaceful integration.

A look through the lens of peace

Posted on January 20, 2014 by Laiq Ahmed Atif

Credit/Source: The Times: Monday, January 20, 2014, by Laiq Ahmed Atif, president of Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat, Malta

At the beginning of every year, many share greetings and wish one another a happy and prosperous new year. People make their plans and road maps for the coming year to make their lives better, full of happiness and prosperity. The year begins with messages of hope and great aspirations with great expectations of a better future.

Some strive to experience a better spirituality and moderate life; some restrict their expectations to the acquisition of worldly benefits and achievements of one kind or another such as good health, financial security, matrimonial contentment, friendships, success in studies, improvement in business and profession, and acquisition of property, etc.

The worldly achievements are also blessings and should be cherished too. There is, however, the experience of spiritual happiness and prosperity which far exceed that of worldly satisfaction.

Having personal resolutions and setting some goals for future are well and good but I think we must make collective resolutions that will affect all of us, in one way or another.

Recently, in a special reception in Nagoya, Japan, the head of the Ahmadiyya Community, Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad, conveyed a strong message of establishing peace, unity, reconciliation and solidarity with each other. He spoke clearly about the need of peace, unity and security and combating violence and extremism; avoiding every possibility of war and conflict. I believe this is a great collective resolution that needs the input of all of us.

He said: “In my capacity as head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat, I have been constantly warning the people and nations of the world that it is imperative that we spread love and affection in today’s world, rather than spreading hatred and igniting grievances among one another. The need of the time is for us to step forward with a spirit of reconciliation because if we do not become true ambassadors of peace, a great calamity could easily befall the world.”

ONLY WITH LOVE CAN YOU WIN THE HEARTS OF PEOPLE

I hope and pray that 2014 will be a year of peace, security, solidarity and unity. Moreover, that the human values of decency and brotherhood will prevail over every kind of jealousy, animosity, extremism and insecurity. So that, mankind can cherish the fruits of serenity and tranquillity across the globe.

The world situation is not ideal and we see different kinds of conflicts erupting time after time. And it is very true that, as they say, as you sow, so shall you reap. Thus, it becomes more important than ever before for all of us to work hard in a positive direction and let us sow the seeds of hope and optimism, let us put aside all the differences and let us unite for the common good. We can make our world a better place for all of us by making the correct choice between love and hate and play our role as torch bearers of love, mercy and forgiveness.

For, indeed, only with love can you win the hearts of people. Love and true sympathy are the very antidotes of terrorism and serve as an effective weapon and an instrument for the establishment of peace. Moses, Jesus Christ and Prophet Muhammad also won the hearts of their bitter enemies by forgiving them, those enemies who always persecuted them and their followers severely and insulted and humiliated them mercilessly.

This magnanimous display of compassion and forgiveness on their part found a place in the hearts of their enemies. Let us all use the same weapon of compassion, forgiveness and love for our unity to eradicate hatred from the world and keep on marching in the path of progress.

I would like to conclude with prayers and a great message from the spiritual head of our community. He says: “Rather than looking at each through a lens of hatred, we should all look at one another through a lens of love and peace… I pray that, instead of spreading malice and hatred, all people join together and make a collective effort to end all forms of evil so that our future generations can be saved from that indescribable destruction that would certainly arise if nuclear weapons were ever used again by any country.” amjmalta@gmail.com THE-TIMES:

Peace building and Mandela

Posted on January 12, 2014 by Laiq Ahmed Atif

Peace, tranquility and serenity are so valuable fruits of life that everyone wants to benefits to the utmost. Those people who have worked for peace throughout their lives are people of high values and deserve that the world remembers and salutes their memory in the best way possible because they are the heroes of mankind; they loved humanity and had a pure and kind heart for everyone.

Nelson Mandela is one of those noble and precious personalities who have worked hard for peace and human dignity. Nelson Mandela is a clear example of determination, struggle and passion. He showed how a determined person with high and firm aims can do miracles and can change the critical situation of the world into a world of peace and common good. He is really a symbol of peace, unity, forgiveness, love, dignity and reconciliation.

There are thousands of people who commend the work of Nelson Mandela; and his memory will remain fresh and alive in the minds of thousands of people for years to come. Mandela, will undoubtedly be remembered as a beacon of peace and hope. I salute to Mandela. May you rest in peace forever.

Recently I read an article in FoxNews.com where the writer says in a critical tone that: “Where is the Muslim Mandela?” In this article the writer has mentioned many incidents of terrorism and violence around the world where some Muslims were convicted.

The writer also asks: “Where among the 1.56 billion Muslims is our Mandela? And says that: “Because we lack a Muslim Mandela to show us the way to peace and reconciliation, we Muslims must each look to ourselves for ways to defy the radical Islamist, to protect the vulnerable among us.”

In this article many issues have been mentioned, but I would like to answer her question and would like to bring to her attention that there is a Muslim Mandela – who works day and night to spread the message of peace and to show the way that leads to peace and serenity. Recently one of his books with a tile “World crisis and the pathway to peace” was published, in which he has discussed the means to peace and has presented numerous solutions, suggestions and basic principles that are important and crucial for the establishment of peace around the world as well as in the Muslim countries.

The Muslim Mandela is that who urges the world towards peace, sympathy, harmony, religious freedom and declares that “acceptance of faith is a matter between man and his God, and you should not interfere in this in any way. Everyone is permitted to live according to his faith and to perform his religious rituals.”

Perhaps this is why the U.S. House of Representatives introduced an unprecedented resolution recognizing the Muslim Mandela as “a man of peace.” And was presented with a golden key by the City Council of Los Angeles, declaring: “This Key is reserved for only the most honoured people on Earth.”

The Muslim Mandela responses to the world challenges through opening of many clinics and hospitals that offer medical assistance to those in need, and schools that offer free secular education for all children – both Muslims and non-Muslims, without any discrimination. He inaugurated a large number of social and humanitarian projects to help in the development of poor and underdeveloped countries and to offer assistance to victims of wars and natural disasters.

The Muslim Mandela has travelled globally to promote and facilitate service to humanity; and has addressed some very important meetings in Capitol Hill, Washington DC, in the European Parliament, the German Military Headquarters and in the British Parliament among others. Wherever he goes, he highlights the importance of absolute justice, human dignity, equality, human rights, and unreservedly condemns violence and terrorism in any form and for any reason, and says that: “Islam does not permit cruelty or oppression in any way, shape or form. These barbaric acts are completely against true teachings of Islam.”

Under his spiritual leadership millions of leaflets with the messages of peace, loyalty and service to mankind were distributed around the globe; many inter-faith conferences and peace symposiums where a number of distinguished guests from all walks of life gather and share their thoughts about the promotion of long-lasting peace and harmony.

Without any doubt, like President Mandela, the Muslim Mandela is also a great symbol of forgiveness, hard-work, sympathy, love, unity, solidarity, reconciliation, prayer and hope.

Come and meet with the Muslim Champion of Peace, Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad, the Khalifa of Islam and Spiritual Leader of the worldwide Ahmadiyya Muslim Community.

This is a man that the Muslim world needs, because he speaks clearly and fearlessly and presents solutions to their crisis, problems and conflicts. He presents practical and sustainable solutions, according to the teachings of the Holy Quran, to the critical situation in Syria, in Afghanistan, in Pakistan, in Iraq and to other countries, which are heavily threatened by crises.

Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad warn the world and says that: “Nowadays, when the world again is getting divided into blocs; extremism is escalating; and the financial and economic situation is worsening, there is an urgent need to end all kinds of hatred and to lay the foundations of peace… Time is running out, and before it is too late we must all pay great heed and attention to the needs of the time… Therefore, to improve the situation and for peace to develop, requires all parties to work together.”

“We feel extreme pain and anguish in our hearts at the state of the world. It is that pain which drives us in our efforts to try and save humanity from destruction and suffering. Therefore, I and all other Ahmadi Muslims are striving to fulfill our responsibilities towards achieving peace in the world.”

His Holiness, Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad continues:

“God Willing, the Ahmadiyya Khilafat will always be known as the standard-bearer of peace and harmony in the world, as well as be loyal to the country in which members reside.”

Mandela and Muslim Leadership

Posted on January 12, 2014 by Laiq Ahmed Atif

Find English translation of this article here: Mandela and Muslim Leadership

Il-paci, it-trankwillità u s-serenità huma frott sabiħ li kulħadd jixtieq igawdihom bl-aqwa mod. Dawk in-nies li ħadmu għall-paċi matul ħajjithom huma nies ta’ valuri għolja u jistħoqqilhom li d-dinja tfakkar u ssellem il-memorija tagħhom bl-aħjar mod possibbli għax huma eroj tal-umanità; huma maħbubin tal-bnedmin; huma ħabbew l-umanità u kellhom qalb safja u tajba għal kulħadd.

Nelson Mandela huwa wkoll wieħed minn dawn il-persuni nobbli u prezzjużi li ħadmu ħafna għall-paċi u għad-dinjità umana. Nelson Mandela huwa eżempju ċar ta’ determinazzjoni, ħidma u passjoni. Hu wera kif il-bniedem determinat u b’għanijiet sodi jista’ jagħmel mirakli u jista’ jibdel id-dinja minn qagħda ħażina għal waħda li ġġib il-ġid komuni. Huwa verament simbolu ta’ paċi, għaqda, maħfra, imħabba, dinjità u rikonċiljazzjoni.

Hemm eluf kbar ta’ nies li jiftaħru bil-ħidma ta’ Nelson Mandela; u l-memorija tiegħu se tibqa’ ħajja u friska f’moħħ eluf ta’ persuni għas-snin li ġejjin. Mandela, mingħajr dubju se jibqa’ mfakkar bħala xempju ta’ paċi u tama. Insellem lil Mandela. Jalla jistrieħ għal dejjem.

Dan l-aħħar qrajt artiklu f’FoxNews.com fejn kittieba b’ton sarkastiku tikteb: “Where is the Muslim Mandela?” F’dan l-artiklu l-kittieba qed ssemmi ħafna inċidenti ta’ terroriżmu u ta’ vjolenza madwar id-dinja fejn xi Musulmani kienu akkużati bihom.

Il-kittieba tistaqsi wkoll li: “Fost il-1.56 biljun Musulman, fejn hu Mandela tagħna?” Hi tfisser li “minħabba li għandna n-nuqqas ta’ Mandela Musulman li jista’ jurina t-triq għall-paċi u r-rikonċiljazzjoni, hemm il-bżonn urġenti li l-Musulmani jagħmlu minn kollox biex jipproteġu lill-vulnerabbli fosthom u jsibu t-triq lejn il-paċi”.

F’dan l-artiklu hemm ħafna suġġetti, imma rrid nirrispondi l-mistoqsija tagħha u ngħidliha li hemm Mandela Musulman li jaħdem lejl u nhar biex ixxerred il-messaġġ tal-paċi u juri t-triq li tmexxi lill-Musulmani lejn triq serena u paċifika għal kollox. Dan l-aħħar kien ippubblikat il-ktieb tiegħu b’titlu ‘Il-Kriżi Dinjija u t-Triq għall-Paċi’, fejn fih tfasslet it-triq għall-paċi billi ppreżenta soluzzjonijiet, suġġerimenti u prinċipji ewlenin li huma mportanti u kruċjali biex il-paċi tkun stabbilita madwar id-dinja kif ukoll fil-pajjiżi Musulmani.

Mandela Musulman huwa dak li jħeġġeġ lid-dinja lejn il-paċi, l-imħabba, l-armonija, il-libertà tar-reliġjon, u jiddikjara li “l-aċċettazzjoni tal-fidi hi ħaġa ta’ bejn il-bniedem u Alla tiegħu u m’għandek qatt tindaħallu bl-ebda mod; kulħadd għandu d-dritt jgħix skont il-fidi tiegħu u jeżerċita r-ritwali reliġjużi tiegħu.”

Forsi dan huwa għax il-Kamra tad-Deputati fl-Istati Uniti tal-Amerika introduċiet riżoluzzjoni bla preċedent li tirrikonoxxi lil dan il-Mandela Musulman bħala “raġel ta’ paċi.” Kien ippreżentat iċ-ċavetta tad-deheb mill-Kunsill tal-Belt Los Angeles, li jiddikjara: “This Key is reserved for only the most honoured people on Earth.”

Mandela Musulaman jirrispondi lis-sfidi madwar id-dinja bil-ftuħ ta’ ħafna kliniċi u sptarijiet li joffru għajnuna medika għal dawk fil-bżonn, skejjel li joffru t-tagħlim sekulari b’xejn għat-tfal kollha, kemm Musulmani kif ukoll dawk li jħaddnu reliġjonijiet oħra, mingħajr ebda diskriminazzjoni. Waqqaf numru kbir ta’ proġetti soċjali biex jgħin fl-iżvilupp ta’ pajjiżi foqra madwar id-dinja, u qed joffri għajnuna lill-vittmi ta’ gwerer u diżastri naturali.

Mandela Musulman ivvjaġġa immensament biex jippromwovi l-messaġġ tal-paċi u jiffaċilità s-servizz lill-umanità u indirizza laqgħat importanti f’Capitol Hill, Washington D.C, fil-Parlament Ewropew, fil-Kwartieri Ġenerali Militari Ġermaniżi u fil-Parlament Britanniku fost oħrajn. Kulfejn imur jenfasizza fuq ġustizzja assoluta, dinjità umana, ugwaljanza, drittijiet umani u jikkundanna bla riservi l-vjolenza u t-terroriżmu f’kull forma u għal kull raġuni, u jgħid li “l-Iżlam ma jippermettix il-moħqrija u l-oppressjoni taħt l-ebda forma, sura jew manjiera. Dawn l-atti barbari jmorru kompletament kontra t-tagħlim veru tal-Iżlam.”

Taħt it-tmexxija tiegħu tqassmu miljuni ta’ fuljetti b’messaġġi ta’ paċi u lealtà sħiħa lejn il-pajjiż ta’ residenza u s-servizz lejn l-umanità kollha; u jiġu organizzati simpożji għal reliġjonijiet differenti u konferenzi dwar il-paċi fejn għadd ta’ mistednin minn kull qasam tal-ħajja jiltaqgħu flimkien biex jaqsmu l-ideat dwar il-promozzjoni tal-paċi u l-armonija.

Bla dubju ta’ xejn, bħall-President Mandela, Mandela Musulman huwa wkoll simbolu ta’ maħfra, ħidma, imħabba, għaqda, solidarjetà, rikonċiljazzjoni, talb u tama.

Ejja u ltaqa’ ma’ Mandela Musulman li huwa Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad, il-Kalif tal-Iżlam u l-Mexxej Spiritwali tal-Komunità Ahmadija Musulmana.

Dan huwa bniedem li d-dinja Musulmana għandha bżonn, għax hu jitkellem ċar u jippreżenta soluzzjonijiet għall-kriżi, għall-problemi u l-kunflitti tagħhom. Hu jippreżenta soluzzjonijiet prattiċi u sostenibbli għas-sitwazzjoni kritika fis-Sirja, fl-Afghanistan, fil-Pakistan, fl-Iraq u f’pajjiżi oħrajn li lkoll jinsabu mhedda minn kriżijiet li jheżżu l-umanità skont it-tagħlim Koraniku.

Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad iwiddeb lid-dinja u jgħid li: “Illum, meta d-dinja qed tinqasam fi blokki, l-estremiżmu qed jiżdied, u s-sitwazzjoni finanzjarja u ekonomika qed teħżien, hemm ħtieġa urġenti biex inwaqqfu kull xorta ta’ mibegħda u nqegħidu l-pedamenti tal-paċi… Iż-żmien qed jagħfas, u qabel ma jkun tard wisq aħna kollha rridu nagħtu kas u attenzjoni partikolari lill-bżonnijiet ta’ dak il-ħin… Għalhekk, biex tittejjeb is-sitwazzjoni u l-paċi tiżviluppa, jeħtieġ li l-partijiet kollha jaħdmu flimkien.”

“Aħna nħossu wġigħ kbir u dieqa f’qalbna għall-istat li tinsab fih id-dinja. Huwa dan l-uġigħ li jkebbes l-isforzi tagħna biex nippruvaw insalvaw l-umanità mill-qerda u s-sofferenza. Għalhekk jiena u l-Musulmani Ahmadin kollha qed nistinkaw biex inwettqu r-responsabbiltajiet tagħna ħalli nxerrdu l-paċi fid-dinja kollha.”

Il-Qdusija Tiegħu, Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad ikompli:

“Jekk Alla Jrid, il-Kalifat (Tmexxija) tal-Ahmadija dejjem tkun magħrufa bħala dik li tkun fuq quddiem nett biex tmexxi l-kawża għall-paċi u għall-armonija fid-dinja, kif ukoll li tkun leali lejn il-pajjiż fejn il-membri tagħha jkunu jabitaw.” READ IN IT-TORCA

Other faiths can still join the celebrations

“We believe the message of all prophets sent by God is the same: love God and serve humankind,” Laiq Ahmed Atif says from his office.

“The details and guidelines are different, but in essence the message is the same. Every road leads to the same message: love God and serve humanity.”

Mr Atif is the president of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat Malta, which is an Islamic reformist movement founded in the 19th century. It encapsulates a few million people in more than 200 countries.

Six years ago, Mr Atif was asked to emigrate to Malta to be the president of the Ahmadi community here.

“As Muslims we respect founders, prophets and messengers of all religions, and we show respect by joining in celebrations,” he says.

Just as they do on Muslim Holy Days, such as the Feast of Sacrifice, around Christmas time Mr Atif’s community visits homes like id-Dar tal-Providenza and St Vincent de Paul bearing gifts.

This Christmas the community expressed solidarity with the staff and children at Fejda and the St Joseph Home in Santa Venera.

“We don’t traditionally celebrate Christmas, but when we live in another country we respect the traditions and culture of that country. Through our visits to these vulnerable people we hope to extend the message of love. We want them to know there are people who care about them.”

The community also exchanges greetings with State representatives, the Church, neighbours, and anyone they have come across, so the list gets longer every year.

In following local tradition, the community prints its own Christmas cards with a message of love.

On Christmas Day, Mr Atif’s family-of-four exchanges greetings with neighbours and friends.

Sometimes they visit people they know will be alone on the day, taking with them clothes or food, according to their needs.

“The satisfaction you feel when you give or do something for someone else cannot be described in words.”

Although Muslims do not celebrate Christmas like the Maltese, they dedicate their early morning prayers to Jesus’s message, asking God for strength to follow his teachings. When it comes to the Hindu community in Malta, some Indian families join Maltese ones for Christmas Eve Mass and then gather with their relatives for Christmas lunch. Continue Reading…

Ahmadiyya Malta participated in Annual Book Fair 2013

Posted on November 13, 2013 by Laiq Ahmed Atif

The Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat Malta had participated in Malta’s Annual National Book Fair 2013. The Book Fair was officially inaugurated by Hon. Stefan Buontempo MP – Parliamentary Secretary for Research, Innovation, Youth and Sport, on 12^th November 2013.

Heroes of humanity

Posted on November 11, 2013 by Laiq Ahmed Atif

Source/Credit: The Times Monday, November 11, 2013, 00:01 by Laiq Ahmed Atif

Prophet Muhammad said: “One who is not grateful to fellow human beings is not grateful to God.” As a firm believer of this principle, I would like to start with paying tribute and extending my gratitude and heartfelt thanks to the Armed Forces of Malta and the Maltese authorities for the great work they did and the courage they demonstrated in the rescue operation off Lampedusa early last month.

Allow me to support what Prime Minister Joseph Muscat said at the time, that “the AFM soldiers out there are Malta’s heroes. They are Europe’s heroes”. I will go a step further and say that they are not only heroes of Malta or Europe; in fact, they are the heroes of humanity.

The Holy Quran states that “whoso saved a life it shall be as if he had saved the life of all mankind” (5:33). The AFM saved 146 human lives, so they are the heroes of humanity and all of us should be grateful to them and be proud of their great work.

I would also like to acknowledge the Prime Minister’s leadership and direction in saving the lives of people who were in danger of drowning. He remained in his office till late, keeping a close eye on the situation and maintaining contact with the AFM.

Prophet Muhammad said that “people are the family of God Almighty and God loves him the most who treats his family with love and compassion and takes care of their needs and provides them the necessities of life. Those who show mercy to others, God will have mercy on them in heavens”.

In Proverbs 14:31-32, we read: “He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker: but he that honoureth him hath mercy on the poor. The wicked is driven away in his wickedness: but the righteous hath hope in his death.”

Let me also quote a wonderful saying of Prophet Muhammad, very similar to what we also find in the Gospel of Mathew, that “Allah, the Almighty, will ask son of Adam on the Day of Judgment that I was ill and you did not attend to me. Son of Adam will say: o my Lord how could I have attended you as you are the Lord of All the worlds? Allah will say: did you not know that my servant was ill and you did not attend to him? If you had attended to him you would have found me near him.

“O son of Adam, I once requested food from you. Son of Adam will say: o my Lord how could I give you food, as you are Lord of all the worlds? Allah will say: one of my servants was hungry, if you had given him food you would have found me near him.

“O son of Adam you did not give me a drink when I was thirsty. How could I give you a drink when you are the Lord of all the worlds? Allah will say that one of my servants was thirsty and asked you for a drink. If you had given him a drink, you would have found me near him.”

These few quotations make it crystal clear that saving human lives and helping the vulnerable and the destitute are among the most rewarding deeds for God. To acquire the bounties of the merciful God, we must all help the needy and try our utmost to bring these human tragedies to an end.

I believe that to solve this human crisis, irrespective of colour, creed, nationality, religion or politics, we must all join hands and work together for the common good. There is need for action from all sides and we do not have time to ‘wait and see’. We must all stand up for the sake of humanity.

Let us sincerely and passionately be at the service of humanity, show compassion and seek unity. Humanity needs to do this for the sake of humanity itself.

This is not only Malta’s or Europe’s problem, this is a human issue and, thus, it puts a huge responsibility on the entire world and also obliges the Muslim world to play its role in feeding the needy, helping the vulnerable, destitute and downtrodden people of this planet.

Together with the international community, the Muslim world must pay attention to this problem and, rather than just building the tallest buildings, creating artificial islands, spending millions of euros on weapons, Muslim countries should allocate a part of their God-gifted wealth and natural resources to feed the hungry and the starving. They must bear in mind that, as explained by the Holy Quran, the true lovers of God are those who “feed, for love of God, the poor, the orphan and the prisoner, saying: ‘We feed you for Allah’s pleasure only. We desire no reward, nor thanks from you”(76:9-10).

The world has become a global village and, thus, we also have international responsibilities to bear and Muslim countries should extend their support and help marginalised people even beyond their borders.

Let me make it clear that I am not saying that nothing is being done. Nor am I expecting others alone to do something. What I mean to say is that what is being done is not enough.

The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is fully engaged in playing its role worldwide. It has opened hundreds of schools, hospitals and clinics for the poor and needy people in poor countries, especially in Africa. It has also provided clean water, electricity and set up ‘model villages’ in many parts of Africa. READ ORIGINAL ARTICLE:

The Calamity of Damascus!

Posted on October 26, 2013 by Laiq Ahmed Atif

Source/Credit: The Malta Independent 26.10.2013; by Laiq Ahmed Atif.

More than a century ago the Founder of the Ahmadiyya Community was given the revelation of ‘the Calamity of Damascus’. It was apparent that Damascus would face some bad times. This revelation was fulfilled by the 1925 tragedy, for Damascus had never experienced destruction of that scale before. But, some revelations are fulfilled more than once. In that calamity, which lasted 57 hours or so according to a cautious estimate seven to eight thousand souls perished.

It is most regrettable that although that calamity was brought about by others, the current calamity that started in Syria two and a half years ago, which is ever increasing, was brought about by the locals – Syrian Muslims themselves. According to cautious estimate up to 100,000 souls have perished and millions are dispossessed. The entire area has been destroyed by bombs and nowhere is safe. The government forces are killing the citizens and the citizens are killing the government forces.

The Syrian crisis had already caused division and dissent in the wider world; whilst some major powers are siding with the Syrian government; other major powers are siding with the rebel forces. While both parties – the government and the rebels – are constantly being given destructive weapons, I doubt if there can be an end to this warfare. To end this massacre, the foremost important step needs to be taken is that to stop the provision of weapons to both parties and to forcing them to hold dialogue and ending the bloodshed.

This perilous situation requires the world to ‘wake up and smell the coffee’, and understand the needs of the time before it is too late. The direction the world is moving in suggests that the dark shadow of war is being cast over a very large part of the globe. Extremism, violence and shedding of innocent blood have become the norm.

The world religious leaders have drawn our attention to the fact that we must all strive for peace and tranquility. His Holiness, Pope Francis and His Grace, the Archbishop of Malta have also spoken on this issue, and appealed to the world to play its role in solving this crisis.

The Spiritual Worldwide leader and Fifth Caliph of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, His Holiness, Mirza Masroor Ahmad has also spoken with great concern on the most dangerous state of affairs, and the potential impact of military intervention in Syria. He said:

“If foreign powers become directly involved in Syria it will harm not just the Arab countries but also other nations. It seems that many of the major powers do not realise that such a war would not remain limited to just Syria but could well be a precursor to Third World War.”

So what should be done in Syria? If the world sees that cruelty and oppression are continuing to take place and the desperate Syrian people are crying out for help, then the neighbouring countries should unite together in order to stop the cruelty and establish peace.

I believe that the Syrian conflict puts a huge responsibility on the Arab countries and that they should not add fuel to these flames of war, but play their important role in solving the Syrian issue. It’s not a matter of gaining any personal, national or religious benefits, but it is a human issue and the Muslim countries must show a sense of responsibility and fulfil their moral and religious duty, as God states regarding such a situation: “And if two parties of believers fight against each other, make peace between them; then if after that one of them transgresses against the other, fight the party that transgresses until it returns to the command of Allah. Then if it returns, make peace between them with equity, and act justly. Verily, Allah loves the just. ” (Holy Quran, 49:10)

A few months back, a wise suggestion was made by the Israeli President, Shimon Peres, about how to deal with the situation in Syria. He suggested that rather than Western countries intervening to remove the Government, the United Nations should send a peacekeeping force to Syria, consisting of only Arab soldiers – so it does not appear to be a Western invasion or imperialism. He further said that as the Arab League is a local organisation that already exists, it should use its influence to try and establish a just and fair government in Syria. The Holy Prophet Muhammad said that wherever a person find words of wisdom or good advice they should adopt them and should not look to see who has given the wise counsel. Therefore, regardless of the fact that it is the suggestion of the President of Israel, the Muslim countries should pay close attention to this proposal.

The current leaders of Syrian nation must bear in mind that they should serve their people and not rule them with an iron fist. They must win hearts of their people rather than forcing them to bow down their heads. The Holy Prophet Muhammad, peace be on him, said that “everyone is guardian and will be answerable to God for all his actions and deeds”.

Syrian leadership should never forget that on the day of judgement they will have to answer for all what they have done and are still doing, so they must prepare for that day. They must bear in mind that the All Mighty is One – God of the Universe, and no one else should act in that way. They must learn a lesson from the history, where mighty kingdoms were also fallen apart, who never thought that the sun will ever set on their kingdoms.

Muslims need to work hard at integration

Posted on October 13, 2013 by Laiq Ahmed Atif

Source/Credit: Sunday, October 13, 2013, 18:47 by Kim Dalli

Leafing through media reports depicting harrowing accounts of the shopping mall attack in Kenya by Islamist gunmen a fortnight ago, Laiq Ahmed Atif was overcome by sadness and grief.

“Ħassejt diqa kbira ġo qalbi,” (I felt sorrow in my heart) the 32-year-old says in fluent Maltese.

“Not just for the fact that they are giving such a bad name to Islam but ultimately for the loss of all those innocent lives – a heinous crime. The word ‘Islam’ traditionally means ‘peace’. Yet their actions can’t possibly be farther from that.

“Islam is in dire need of a reform.”

The soft-spoken Pakistani is the president of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat Malta, a Muslim community which has just published a book which discusses, among other things, whether Muslims can successfully integrate into western societies.

The book, World Crisis and the Pathway to Peace, was originally published in the UK but has just been translated into Maltese.

The author is the head of the worldwide Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat (community), Mirza Masroor Ahmad who, six years ago, asked Mr Atif to emigrate to Malta as the president of the Ahmadi community.

Ahmadiyya is an Islamist reformist movement founded in the 19th century.

It encapsulates a few million people in more than 200 countries. Malta’s Ahmadi community amounts to a handful of people – around 25 in all.

They should learn all about Maltese culture and, especially, the Maltese language

The golden principles are “love for all and hatred for none” and “love for one’s nation is a part of the faith of any true Muslim”.

“As a Muslim living in Malta, I believe it is my duty and part of my faith to love and to play my role in the progress and prosperity of Malta, said Mr Atif.

He lives with his wife and their two young children, the youngest of whom was born in Malta.

He is the ultimate example of successful integration, loving our island which brought out the best qualities in him, as opposed to life in Pakistan where his tolerant and benevolent interpretation of Islam was stifled by extremist groups.

He is fluent in Maltese and loved by countless Maltese whom he befriended.

“I believe Muslims in Malta can integrate very well – but they need to work hard at integration,” he said.

“They should learn all about Maltese culture and, especially, the Maltese language.

“If a Muslim practises those golden principles in daily life and feels that Malta is his country, then he will automatically show complete loyalty and struggle to make Malta a better country.”

And it is this “struggle” which leads Mr Atif to a contentious point – understanding the Jihad, which translates literally into “struggle”.

Ahmadis believes this struggle refers to the building of a better and more peaceful society.

However, extremists interpret it as referring to the struggle against those who do not believe in Islamic God (Allah).

“I think one of the crucial points is that there is no effective leadership in Islam,” Mr Arif reflects, comparing the situation to the leadership Pope Francis provides to Catholics.

“For instance, in Pakistan, three Imams from three mosques are utterly unable to sit at a table and engage in constructive dialogue.

“The problem is that many Imams in mosques fuel hatred. For instance, Shia Muslims are encouraged to kill the Sunni Muslims and vice versa, while being told that they will gain the blessings of God and go to paradise. I’ve gone through the Koran hundreds of times and never have I spotted even the slightest reference to violence.”

He believes that Muslims in Malta also need leadership and guidance – not only in spiritual matters but on a practical level, such as how to live and how to integrate.

And hanging on the wall of his office are dozens of newspaper cuttings, marking the thousands of euros and provisions donated by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat Malta to id-Dar tal-Providenza, Malta Community Chest Fund, Richmond Foundation, St Vincent de Paul and other organisations which help make Malta a better place.

Ahmadiyya Condemns Attacks in Pakistan and Kenya

Posted on September 23, 2013 by Laiq Ahmed Atif

Source/Credit: di-ve.com

The Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat Malta strongly rejects, and unreservedly condemns the attacks on Christian Church in Peshawar, Pakistan, killing more than 78 and wounding 100 other worshipers. This is no doubt, an inhuman, heinous and cruel attack, which should be condemned. The Ahmadiyya Community condemns the attack in strongest terms, and demands the authorities to bring the culprits in front of justice as soon as possible. The Community also demands that sate should give full protection and security to all the citizens living in the country irrespective of their colour, creed, politics and faith.

The Community also condemns the terrorist attack on a shopping mall in Nairobi, Kenya, by Al Shabaab militant group. In this attack 59 people have been killed and more than 175 taken to hospital.

The Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat is a peace loving community, which believes in love, respect, tolerance, harmony and universal brotherhood. It respects the sentiments of the believers of all the faiths. And believes that all mankind is like a family and it can only look after the peace and security of each member, only if it lives like a close-knit family. The apparent differences in mankind are only for identification as to who is European, who is Asian and who is African. As humans we are all the same and therefore a person in Africa has the same sentiments as those of a person in Europe or America or a person living anywhere else in the world.

It believes that all Muslims are commanded to honour human dignity and have been made to promise that they will help to defend the followers of other faiths from unjust and cruel attacks as well, and it is the duty of the governments to provide security to the people of all the faiths living under their rule.

The Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat believes in freedom of faith, and rejects any kind of violence and force for any reason whatsoever. The Community believes in the Quranic Teachings that “There is no compulsion in religion.” and condemns the use of force in the matters of faith, or in the name of religion.

We, the members of Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat express our deepest condolences to the victims’ families in this difficult time and pray for the health of those who were injured in this attack. And we hope for swift action against the perpetrators of this heinous, inhuman and barbaric act. And we pray to God the Almighty that He makes this world a haven of peace, tolerance, harmony, liberty and universal brotherhood.

Extremism has no place in Islam

Posted on September 13, 2013 by Laiq Ahmed Atif

Source/Credit: The Times, Thursday, September 12, 2013, 00:01 by Laiq Ahmed Atif

A subject that becomes the talk of the town in the month of September is the peril of extremism and terrorism in the world. Sometimes, this debate goes one step further and people start talking about extremism and radicalisation in Islam. Is there any extremism in Islam?

There is no room for extremism in Islam whatsoever. Islam categorically and unreservedly and in the strongest terms condemns extremism of any form, of any kind and for any purpose. The Holy Prophet Muhammad advised Muslims to be moderate and said: “In every matter, moderation is best. A person should take the path of moderation in his activities.”

It is true that Islam has had to face some extremist elements in one form or another throughout its history. But extremism itself has no place whatsoever in the religion of Islam. If Islam is so strict against extremism then why is it associated with terrorism?

The fourth Caliph of the Ahmadiyya Community says: “Islam is as closely related to terrorism as light is to darkness or life is to death or peace is to war. They do come into contact with each other, of course, but from directions diametrically opposed. They are found grappling with each other but never walking hand in hand happily together.

“However, one cannot deny that on many occasions some Muslims are found involved in terrorist activities either on behalf of a group or on behalf of a country with a predominately Muslim population.”

One should bear in mind that the involvement of some Muslim individuals or groups in extremist activities does not justify labelling Islam as promoting terrorism and extremism. Terrorists and extremists can have any religious background.

What we should focus on is whether a religion itself has to do anything with extremism or sponsors militancy. Does Islam condone terrorism for any reason?

The Holy Quran promotes the establishment of peace, champions the sanctity of human life and condemns disorder in the land. It states: “Whosoever killed a person – it shall be as if he had killed all mankind; and who so gave life to one, it shall be as if he had given life to all mankind” (5:33).

“Whenever they kindle a fire for war, Allah extinguishes it. And they strive to create disorder in the earth and Allah loves not those who create disorder” (5:65).

“There should be no compulsion in religion” (2:257).

“And Allah calls to the abode of peace.”

These few references will prove that Islam as a religion does not tolerate violence and aggression. The involvement of some Muslims, individuals or groups in terrorist attacks has nothing to do with Islam because that is their personal agenda.

In its report about its 10 priorities for 2009-2014, the EPP Group has also made a clear distinction between Islam and radicalisation. The report says: “We have to combat terrorism, not a religious movement. A clear distinction must be made between Islam and Jihadist terrorism. Though carried out in the name of religion, attacks on human life are acts of hatred motivated by a totalitarian political vision that shows contempt for religion.”

It is a fact that there are Muslims’ groups and countries that sponsor and support militant groups or so-called religious and charitable organisations, even those banned by their governments. Such funds often remain unnoticed and are spent with no system of checks and balances in place.

A recent report by the European Parliament revealed that some Wahabi and Salafi groups are involved in the “support and supply of arms to rebel groups around the world”. This support is definitely promoting terrorism and extremisms in many parts of the world.

Unfortunately, these hard-line Muslims and their leaders are just like a hunter who moves stealthily towards a deer he is stalking in the forest, shooting at the right moment. They know nothing about compassion for humanity.

Terrorist attacks are so painful that any human being with even just a trace of decency and benevolence will definitely not engage in such barbaric activities. The founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim community asks: “Is it not shameful that a complete stranger should be unjustly killed while occupied in his daily affairs, thus widowing his wife, making his children orphans and turning his house into a funeral parlour?”

I believe funding of militant groups is doing humanity no good. How nice it would have been if these millions of dollars had been spent to feed the hungry, to clothe the naked, to cure the sick, to eradicate suffering and poverty from the globe and help the vulnerable and destitute.

Unfortunately, the Muslim world today is riddled with numerous problems and violence is rife. A ferocious and barbarous wave has shattered the entire fabric of society. Charismatic and persuasive leadership is lacking.

The people are frustrated and hopeless. They are dead meat for exploitation by their own corrupt leaders.

Many leaders in Muslim countries seek sanction from Islam for their acts of violence and oppression notwithstanding that bloody revolutions, acts of extremism and terrorist attacks are totally alien to the philosophy of Islam.

I conclude with a quote by fourth Caliph of Ahmadiyya Community: “Terrorism is a global problem and needs to be studied in its larger perspective. Unless we understand the forces behind the violence, we shall not be able to understand why some Muslim groups and states are turning to terrorism to achieve certain objectives.

“I am fully convinced that almost every form of communal violence witnessed in the world today, wherever that is and whatever cloak it wears, is essentially political in nature. Religion is not the exploiter; it is itself exploited by internal or external political interests.”

When killing in the name of God

Posted on August 27, 2013 by Laiq Ahmed Atif

Source: The Times of Malta, Tuesday, August 27, 2013, 00:01 by Laiq Ahmed Atif

A very common saying in Pakistan is that if someone wants to take the biggest revenge on someone, does not need to kill him, but simply turn him into a drug addict.

Drugs will keep killing him every day and night, and therefore it will not ruin him alone but also his family and dear ones.

I take it one step further and say that if you would like to ruin any nation, simply trigger off violence, aggression and brutality into society. This cancer of intolerance and lack of decency will ruin the entire fabric of the nation.

The speech of Malala Yousafzai to the United Nations was a wonderful reflection of the philosophy of tolerance and harmony, and the dangerous repercussions of aggression and violence. The tragedy this girl suffered and the trauma she went through in recent months alone can determine that, for our betterment and prosperity, violence and aggression must be uprooted from our societies once and for all.

In her speech, she emphasised the importance of education and tolerance; the rejection of arms and guns. During her speech she mentioned a number of remarkable personalities in human history who taught peace-loving and non-violent philosophy, including the prophet Muhammad and Jesus Christ, who were a simple example of compassion, mercy and forgiveness.

The Prophet Muhammad and Jesus Christ were an example of compassion and mercy

She also mentioned Martin Luther, Nelson Mandela, Mother Theresa, Mahatma Gandhi and Muhammad Ali Jinnah, who all fought for their nation’s rights through dialogue and persuasion, the pen, the book.

She said that the legacy she has inherited from such noble personalities will be her guiding principle to promote education and peace for all; and her struggle against violence and aggression.

The Taliban issued a statement after Malala’s speech claiming they attacked her for good reason and if she returned to Pakistan will be attacked again. They said they are carrying out this jihad for the sake of Islam and God. I fail to understand their logic of shooting young girls aged 14 and 15 in the name of God.

Let me briefly say what God commands us to do. The Holy Koran highlights the service to fellow humans at numerous occasions, “Slacken not in serving your fellow beings.” (4:105). “Indeed, Allah is with those who are righteous and those who serve others.” (16:129) Again, “Surely, the mercy of Allah is near those who do good to others.” (7:57)

St John tells us so concisely, “If someone says, ‘I love God,’ and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, how can he love God, whom he has not seen. And this commandment we have from Him, ‘that he who loves God must love his brother also.’” (1 John 4:20-21)

Over a century ago the Founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat declared that the concept of bloodthirsty jihad is not a lawful jihad at all; and that time requires the abstention from religious wars involving armed combat, killing and bloodshed.

Those who do not refrain from spilling blood and giving such sermons is therefore unacceptable, because human sympathy is its first casualty in adopting such barbaric methods.

He raised his voice against every kind of barbarism, aggression and intolerance and emphasised sympathy of humanity, and said: “Refrain from evil and be truly compassionate towards mankind. Cleanse your hearts of malice and spite, for you will become like angels through this habit. It is a filthy and unholy religion that is devoid of sympathy for humanity, and polluted is the path riddled with thorns of a rancourbased on selfish desires… Be compassionate towards all for the sake of God so that you may be shown mercy in the heavens.”

He went on saying that: “jihad with the sword has ended from this time forward, but the jihad of purifying your souls must continue.”

When one ponders over his words, one can easily analyse that the situation of the last century and more importantly the last few decades bear witness to this testimony that his words ring true and every word had a deep wisdom behind it. Countries which adopted violence saw their society being shattered.

The situation of Pakistan, Afghanistan and some Arab countries bear witness to this very fact that violence and aggression should not have any place in any society because they alone can ruin the peace and security of the entire society.

Malala said that terrorists attacked her and her friends too, and “they thought that the bullet would silence us, but they failed”.

I certainly believe in the philosophy of love for all, hatred for none. And I truly believe Mirza Tahir Ahmad’s quote: “Swords can win territories, but not hearts; force can bend heads, but not minds.’’

Cause of irregular migration!

Posted on August 1, 2013 by Laiq Ahmed Atif

Homeopathy is a system of medicine that works according to the specific symptoms of a patient. A homeopath prescribes the medicine according to the symptoms and targets the root cause of the disease. Once the root cause of the disease is found and a prescription is issued accordingly, even a little dose of the prescribed medicine would start having a positive effect on the patient.

The issue of irregular immigration can very much be likened to homeopathy in two basic ways. First, in trying to find the root cause of the problem and, then, in targeting the root cause, instead of addressing the problems of its effects. Once the root cause is found and given due attention, I am sure the problem can be solved, if not completely but at least to a satisfactory level.

One should bear in mind that it is not an easy option for immigrants to leave their home, family and dear ones in search of a better life in another country.

So, then, why are so many people leaving all their belongings and put their life in danger to go to another country?

The simple answer is that the perilous political, religious, social and economic situation in their countries leaves them with no other option except migration in the hope of finding a safe haven.

If we analyse the irregular immigration issue, we find that the ratio of migration is very high in those countries where there is no or very little rule of law, where there is no peace and security and where persecution, tribal conflicts, political turmoil and social and economic problems are very pronounced.

In reality, these destitute and vulnerable people who migrate are the victims and not the culprits. They are not the real problem but rather the ones who are deprived of all their fundamental and basic human rights. Thus, when they find shelter in any country, they should be given their due respect and human dignity should not be compromised.

To successfully address this issue of irregular immigration, which is increasing very rapidly, we have to find concrete, sustainable and long-term solutions. Financial support is not the long-term solution.

European Union President Herman Van Rompuy stressed this point and rightly said during his latest visit to Malta that “money alone could not solve the problem” and that “we have to address the root of migration”.

Another very important factor is the increasing problem of human trafficking, where agents receive handsome payments from these vulnerable people in their search of a better life. This issue needs to be solved as well and this cannot be done without the cooperation of those countries whose borders are close to Europe or developed countries.

To my understanding, if we want to solve this problem, consultation with all stakeholders is essential to draw a road map to combat this huge problem. It is really very crucial for the world powers to help in the establishment of peace and security in the affected countries and, instead of providing them with weapons and armaments, they should be offered better education facilities and business and work opportunities so they can stand on their own feet.

Many of these countries are rich in natural resources and they may not be in need of financial help. However, due to mismanagement and corruption in their institutions they cannot fully utilise such resources to provide a better life for their people.

A sincere and sympathetic approach of training personnel and strengthening their institutions can also be a very valid proposal.

Access to international markets can help them overcome their many problems at home and strengthen their economy.

Once this issue has been given due attention by the world powers, I am sure there will be positive results that will favour the entire world.

Solving this issue and helping the needy and the destitute would be a great service to mankind.

Kif iħares l-Iżlam lejn it-terroriżmu?

Posted on July 28, 2013 by Laiq Ahmed Atif

Source: IT-TORCA, 28.07.2013, by Laiq Ahmed Atif

It-terrorizmu jinsab madwar id-dinja kollha u jidher f’forom varji. Meta niddiskutu t-terroriżmu jew l-estremiżmu, insibu żewġ opinjonijiet importanti dwar dan is-suġġett. Hemm nies li jaħsbu li r-reliġjon, minnu nnifsu jikkawża l-vjolenza u l-aggressjoni, u nies oħrajn li jissuġġerixxu li r-reliġjon topponi l-vjolenza. Madankollu n-nies, matul iż-żmien, użaw ir-reliġjon għal skopijiet politiċi u personali. Dawk li jaħsbu li hemm il-vjolenza fir-reliġjon, jgħidu wkoll li r-reliġjon joħloq il-firda fil-bnedmin. Imma, nemmen li reliġjon ma tifridx in-nies, iżda tgħaqqadhom u tistabbilixxi l-imħabba u l-armonija bejniethom.

Nemmen ukoll li kull reliġjon fid-dinja topponi l-vjolenza, u anki l-Iżlam ma jaqbilx mal-idea tal-vjolenza. Sfortunatament, xi drabi nsibu xi Musulmani jew xi gruppi ta’ Musulmani nvoluti f’attakki terroristiċi u suwiċidjali. Minħabba dawn il-ftit Musulmani (li wara kollox ma jipprattikawx it-tagħlim veru tal-Iżlam), u l-azzjonijiet ħżiena li jwettqu, b’xorti ħażina r-reliġjon tal-Iżlam hija miżmuma responsabbli għall-atti tagħhom.

Fl-aħħar ġranet fl-Iraq rajna għexieren ta’ nies jiġu attakkati, u skont il-Ġnus Maqgħuda, f’Ġunju biss inqatlu 761 persuna u iktar minn 1,770 oħra ndarbu serjament. Dawk in-nies li huma nvoluti f’attakki terroristiċi u suwiċidjali qed jużaw l-isem tal-Iżlam, imma l-azzjonijiet tagħhom imorru għal kollox kontra l-Iżlam. Imma, qabel xejn, ejjew naraw x’jgħid l-Iżlam dwar it-terroriżmu u l-estremiżmu.

Skont it-tagħlim Iżlamiku, Musulman veru qatt ma jista’ jagħmel dawk l-affarijiet ħżiena. Dan għax fl-Iżlam m’hemm l-ebda spazju għat-terroriżmu u huwa ma jaqbilx mal-idea tat-tortura jew forza, jew oħrajn simili bħall-fanatiżmu, fundamentaliżmu u l-attakki suwiċidji. L-Iżlam dejjem jitkellem kontrihom.

L-Iżlam huwa r-reliġjon ta’ paċi, imħabba, tolleranza, armonija u ħbiberija. L-Iżlam jopponi t-terroriżmu f’kull forma għax il-kelma ‘Islam’ tfisser litteralment ‘paċi u sliem’. Id-dmir ta’ kull Musulman li jżomm il-paċi għandu tant għeruq fondi fl-Iżlam li l-Koran Imqaddes jiddeskrivi Musulmani veri hekk:

“Il-qaddejja ta’ Alla tal-ħniena huma dawk li jimxu fl-art b’mod dinjituż, u meta l-injoranti jindirizzawhom, huma jgħidu: “Paċi u Sliem.” (Il-Koran 25:64)

It-tagħlim bażiku u fundamentali tal-Iżlam hu li l-Musulman veru huwa persuna li minn ilsienu u idu, kull persuna li tħobb il-paċi għandha tħossha sigura… L-Iżlam jgħallem li dawk biss li jużaw ilsienhom u idhom biex ixerrdu l-inġustizzji u l-mibegħda jixirqilhom il-kastig.

Ir-raba’ Kalif tal-Komunità Aħmadija, Ħażrat Mirża Taħir Aħmad, jispjega kif l-Iżlam iħares lejn it-terroriżmu bl-iktar mod ċar. Hu jgħid:

“L-Iżlam kategorikament jiċħad u jikkundanna kull forma ta’ terroriżmu. Ma tipproteġix u ma tiġġustifikax kwalunkwe att vjolenti, kemm jekk isir minn xi individwu kif ukoll minn xi grupp jew gvern… L-Iżlam huwa t-twemmin u r-reliġjon tiegħi; u l-Iżlam ma jippermetti l-ebda forma ta’ diżordni. Għaldaqstant huwa impossibbli li l-Iżlam jgħallem it-terroriżmu…

“Jien nikkundanna bil-qawwa kollha kull att u kull forma ta’ terroriżmu għax hu t-twemmin tiegħi profond li mhux biss l-Iżlam iżda wkoll l-ebda reliġjon vera, hu x’inhu l-isem tagħha, ma tista’ tapprova l-vjolenza u t-tixrid tad-demm ta’ rġiel, nisa u tfal innoċenti f’isem Alla.

“Alla huwa mħabba, Alla huwa sliem! L-Imħabba qatt ma tnissel il-mibegħda u l-paċi qatt ma twassal għall-gwerra!”

L-Iżlam mhux biss jemmen fl-aktar dritt bażiku u fundamentali tal-bniedem li jgħix, iżda fil-fatt jippromwovi l-qdusija tal-ħajja umana u jagħmel ħafna enfasi fuq il-ħarsien tal-qdusija u d-dinjità tal-ħajja umana. Biex jenfasizza l-kruha tal-qtil ta’ ħajja innoċenti, il-Koran Imqaddes iqabbel dan id-delitt mal-qtil tal-umanità kollha. Il-Koran Imqaddes jgħid:

“Min joqtol bniedem… ikun bħallikieku qatel il-bnedmin kollha. U min isalva l-ħajja (ta’ xi ħadd), ikun bħallikieku salva lill-bnedmin kollha.” (5:33)

Il-qtil tal-persuni innoċenti u l-att ta’ suwiċidju huma żewġ dnubiet serji ħafna fl-Iżlam. Il-Koran jikkundanna s-suwiċidju u huwa dnub li ma jinħafirx fl-Iżlam. Alla jgħid:

“La toqtlux lilkom infuskom! Alla tabilħaqq huwa ħanin magħkom. U min jagħmel hekk b’aggressjoni u b’inġustizzja, se naħarquh fin-Nar.” (4:30-31)

Fl-aħħar diskors, il-Qaddis Profeta Muhammad, paċi tkun miegħu, għal darb’oħra reġa’ enfasizza l-qdusija tal-ħajja umana, u quddiem eluf kbar ta’ nies qal:

“Alla għamel il-ħajja, il-proprjetà u l-unur ta’ kull persuna sagri. Li wieħed jieħu l-ħajja jew il-proprjetà ta’ xi ħadd jew jattakka l-unur tiegħu huwa inġust u ħażin daqs li wieħed jattakka l-qdusija ta’ dan il-jum, dan ix-xahar, dan it-territorju (li huma sagri għall-Musulmani). Dak li qed nikkmandakom illum ma jgħoddx biss għal-lum. Jgħodd għal dejjem. Intom mistennija li tiftakruha din u li tobduha sakemm tħallu din id-dinja u tmorru fl-oħra biex tiltaqgħu mal-ħallieq tagħkom.”
