Ramadan, Taqwa, and the Noble Qur’an

Zafar Bangash

There is a symbiotic relationship between Ramadan, taqwa and the noble Qur’an. Muslims need to engage the noble Qur’an more fully in the month of Ramadan to understand this better.

Shaykhs in the Service of Imperialism

Salina Khan

One of the more destructive outcomes of the US’s war on Islam is that it has spawned a number of ‘shaykhs’ that act as willing tools in promoting the agenda of imperialism.

Opinion

Israel Plans, Saudi Finances, Qatar Facilitates, Britain, France, and USA Execute

Abu Dharr

The plot to create chaos and mayhem in the Middle East originates in the criminal minds of the Zionists that the Bani Saud pay for, their Bedouin cousins in Qatar facilitate while the US, UK and France execute them.

The Horrific Rape and Murder of 8-year-old Asifa

Khadijah Ali

Far from feeling any remorse or shame, Hindu fascists in the thousands came out to support their co-religionist rapists and murderers of 8-year-old Asifa in Indian occupied Jammu.

News & Analysis

The Prophetic Sunnah: Making Masjids Socially Relevant

Maksud Djavadov

Most masjids in North America are used merely for prayers and offer little by way of social support. Most Imams are not equipped to deal with the challenges thrown up living in the West.

Resisting Imperialism and Zionism

Zafar Bangash

Imperialists use a number of tools to undermine governments that dare to stand against their oppressive policies. Their latest tool is the phenomenon called takfirism.

Editorials

Killers and Rapists of Muslim Children

Editor

Muslim children are not only killed by in some instances even being raped before slaughtering them. Not only the US but its puppets and allies—Afghanistan, India and Israel, for instance—are guilty of egregious crimes.

Editor's Desk

Bypassing the US Dollar

Editor

The US has successfully used the dollar to undermine countries that refuse to kowtow to its diktat. Now, some of the countries—Islamic Iran, Turkey, Russia and China—have decided to bypass the dollar.

Editorials

The Real Victims of Terrorism

Editor

Statistics released by the Global Terrorism Index show that Muslims are the greatest victims of terrorism even though they are blamed for acts of terrorism.

Main Stories

Trump’s Missiles Expose the Limits of US Power

Waseem Shehzad

The US-UK-French missile strikes on Syria (April 13/14) were completely illegal. However, the strikes merely exposed US impotence as it continues to lose influence in the world.

News & Analysis

The Weaponization of Human Rights

Kevin Barrett

Human rights are a tool used by the imperialists and zionists to advance their nefarious agenda worldwide. They have nothing to do with helping the victims.

News & Analysis

Will the Anglo-Zionist Empire Declare War on Russia and China?

Kevin Barrett

The imperialists and Zionists are deliberately spoiling relations with Russia and China that could easily lead to war.

News & Analysis

Bin Salman Repeatedly Lied During US Visit

Yusuf Dhia-Allah

On his US visit, Saudi crown prince Bin Salman missed no opportunity to tell big lies about the regime’s ‘moderate’ policies. Respect for human rights and people’s basic freedoms are not part of such moderation.

News & Analysis

Time to Study Wahhabi Zionists

Tahir Mahmoud

Wahhabis and religious Zionists share a number of common traits. It is time to study these properly to understand how closely their policies are aligned and why they have openly embraced each other.

Canada: When is a Terrorist Not a Terrorist?

Hayy Yaqzan

It is now well established that whenever a Muslim commits a crime, it is branded terrorism but when a non-Muslim does the same, he is called a ‘lone wolf’, ‘nutcase’ and other such excuses are offered.

News & Analysis

Misplaced Excitement About Malala

Khadijah Ali

Malala Yousufzai is being promoted as part of a Western plan to groom leaders for the Muslim world. Unfortunately most Muslims display extreme naivety when it comes to such plots.

Muslims in North America

John Andrew Morrow

We continue our conversation with Dr John Andrew Morrow about his views on the role of Muslims in North America.

Letters To The Editor

Plight of Muslims

Zamin Usman

Dr. J.A. Morrow’s article has accurately captured the reality of Muslims in the West (CI, April 2018). We have little power or influence; we are hated because of massive propaganda and hate speech against Muslims.

Letters To The Editor

Trump’s Warmongering

Askia Wejd

Let us follow through on Trump’s logic (he has none but we can follow the arguments he makes). He launched missiles at Syria because of its alleged use of chemical weapons. This allegation was false.

Letters To The Editor

Heartbreaking Yemen crisis

Sadia Ahmed

The suffering of the Yemeni people is heartbreaking. It is, however, not enough to expose the Saudi criminals and their backers. We must make life uncomfortable for the Saudis whenever they show up in the West.

Letters To The Editor

Tariq Ramadan

Susan Bingham

Thank you for highlighting the French regime’s witch-hunt of Dr. Tariq Ramadan. There is no proof of his wrongdoing yet he has been held in solitary confinement for nearly three months now.
