of the Danish Cartoon Crises
Assalam Alikom wa rahmat ALLAH
Peace and Blessings be upon you
Hello Everybody
In a past 3 posts + their comments, I’d told my opinion regarding the Danish Cartoon Crises, therefore I’m not going to tell any more opinion regarding this. I just want to focus on some other reactions + resources in this post.
Furthermore, the next issue of I-MAG incha’allah will carry my official point of view regarding what had happened + other articles from the editorial stuff.
1 - Amr Khaled + Muslim Scholars
Amr Khaled, the 39 Egyptian Muslim preacher, is thinking about launching a conference, to be held on Denmark, in order tell the truth about Islam, prophet Muhammed (PBUH) and the whole cartoon row issue.
In Parallel, I was visiting his website few minutes ago and found that a press conference for launching this conference will be held today - Friday - on IQRAA TV channel, @ 6:00 PM Cairo Local Time (4:00 PM GMT).
On the other hand, a group of Muslim scholars worldwide had singed a statement regarding this Danish cartoon crisis. I’d found it on Amr Khaled’s website too. It’s currently placed in Arabic; however in case it’s translated into other language, I will update this post incha’allah.
2 - Wikipedia
Wikipedia, the free encyclopaedia, had made a very good collection of articles regarding this issue. You can read them both on the English or the Arabic Wikipedia, and from each article, you’ll find further articles to read.
3 - Herald Tribune’s Article
I was visiting Zenobia’s blog - Egyptian Chronicles - few minutes ago, and I found her telling about an excellent article published in the Herald Tribune regarding this crises. I wish you read it too.
That’s all for now and I’d explained my thoughts before.
I hope to see more acts to solve this crises,
and I’m sure that the future will hold good news;
incha’ allah regarding everything.Don’t’ miss me in your supplications,
as I’m still walking on my path of tuning my life,
that’s why I’m not updating my blog with good info right now.I hope you’ll like my new blog, it’s just for smile,
as I mentioned in the previous post.
so everybody keep on good work.

A blog that renders the perspective of a Muslim Egyptian guy living on planet Earth, who believes that Imagination is more important than knowledge, yet the possession of knowledge dose not kill the sense of wonder!

Sara - Thanks sister for stopping by, and for this du’aa. May ALLAH (swt) accepts from all of us, Amen!.
Salam Everybody - I’d placed updated links for the Press Conference in case anyone missed to follow yesterday.

Salam hicham,
The link to the trafalger square article has a link to a BBC news article, just want to say that I was present at the demonstration, 5000 is NOT the number that was present.
They counted at the end and more than 40k people were there. ofcourse, the british media neglected to say this.
but i guess thats a feature of journalism, whatever sells goes.
There were 2 weeks worth of clips about the extremist muslims, but when it comes to showing the moderates, you’re lucky to get a minute and a half, and the initial number of protesters.

Nuralhuda - Slaam sister, and thanks for stopping by. Yup, I’d placed the link to the BBC’s article; as this was the initial source to know about this demonstration, before checking other websites.
In fact, this article was placed before the demonstration itself began, however I was sure that the 5,000 nmuber was just an initial one; simply because the moderate muslims are not only 5,000 persons.
As for the extremist muslims - whom said “london remeber 7/7″ and those stupid words - it’s really strange how media focus on them - the minority - and left the majoirty of moderate Muslims!
Anyway, the demonstrations are still there at London + other European Countries, however I’m sure that both Muslim Leaders - worldwide - and the European Leaders will try their best to find a soultion to this crisis.
I think you’ve seen the links I updated about the Muslim Scholars Statment + Amr Khaled’s call for conference.
I wish all the best for every ture effort seeking the soultion for this crisis.
Slaamy for Citiziens of London
