Aslam-u-alaikum
wa rahmat-u-Allah,
I agree with the article above. I want to,
Insha-Allah, live my life according to the
Quran and the Sunnah. Could you please tell
me how and where can I find about Shariah.
Is there a book or is it on this site? Where
can I find the Shariah rulings? Are these
rules compiled in a book or on a site? Could
you please guide me further? Jazak-Allah
khair.

Comment: Bismillah Alrahman
Alraheem
Hi,
I'd just like to say that i find your site
very offensive... I think that it is people
like you who give muslims a very extremist
and feared image to the western world...
i am a practicing muslim currently living
in the uk and in fact am half arab half
scottish... in my opinion your comments
and answers to questions are really unrealistic
in employing in your every day life... i
myself pray 5 times a day... practice all
rules asked of by the beautiful religion
of islam... but fear some of your outlooks
on this wonderful way of life... the fact
that u see simple things such as drawing
a human being or animal as being haram is
absolutely unbelievable... does this make
cartoons haram? also the fact that u believe
it to be haram to use playing cards or to
attend places like football matches incase
there are members of the opposite sex there...
i think you need to get out and live in
the real world and sample the reality that
is living in the modern world...
Thank you for taking
the time to read my opinions,
Answer:
Salaam brother,
It would only be fair that we reply to the
points you had raised in your earlier email.
Comment: I think that it is people
like you who give Muslims a very extremist
and feared image to the western world...
ITG Response: The
ITG website does not take an extremist view
on political Islam. We will not bow down
to western political correctness, what Allah(swt)
has ordained for Muslims and the Ummah (Nation
of Muslims worldwide) is clearly outlined
in the contents of the website. We take
the view that is clear, concise and truthful
in all aspects and we welcome your thoughts
on any subject matter found on the website.
Statement: i am a practicing muslim
currently living in the uk and in fact am
half arab half scottish...
ITG Response: It
is quite evident from your own understanding
that you are confused over your identity.
Let me explain, you say that you’re
a Muslim and have cultural ties with Arabs
and Scottish people; I assume this is what
you mean. Firstly, as a Muslim your identity
is defined by Allah(swt) first and foremost
as a Muslim and nothing else! You form the
Ummah (Nation) of Muslims worldwide and
do as Allah(swt) has commanded you to do
while alive in this temporary world. You
have no say in the matter as disobedience
to Allah(swt) is not tolerated by Him and
so in His mercy we do his bidding. We follow
as politicians, working to implement his
deen (way of life known as Al-Islam, or
political Al-Khilafah) worldwide, rejecting
all other man made deens that are currently
prevalent in the world.
Statement: in my opinion your comments
and answers to questions are really unrealistic
in employing in your every day life... i
myself pray 5 times a day... practice all
rules asked of by the beautiful religion
of islam... but fear some of your outlooks
on this wonderful way of life... the fact
that u see simple things such as drawing
a human being or animal as being haram is
absolutely unbelievable... does this make
cartoons haram?
ITG Response: Praying
five times a day is FARD and you are not
permitted to use this as a means to consider
yourself above others in ibadha. Your level
of imman and knowledge increases as you
understand more about political Islam. There
are four schools of thought that need to
be referenced, however your question related
to drawing humans, this would be haram if
the Muslim where to draw a naked man or
woman or drawn in a sexual manner. As for
animals the same applies. As for Cartoons,
the same applies. This would mean that a
cartoon that shows a factual creation would
not be haram, however if it is obscene and
offensive it would become haram. The other
matter is concerning the use of animals
that talk. I have not come across a duck
called Donald or a rabbit named bugs that
really talk in real life, so why depict
such a false image and nonsense upon the
young and vulnerable?
Statement: also the fact that u
believe it to be haram to use playing cards
or to attend places like football matches
in case there are members of the opposite
sex there... i think you need to get out
and live in the real world and sample the
reality that is living in the modern world...
ITG Response: Playing
cards is a form of gambling and gambling
is haram. A football match is a public place
and as such under the rules regarding how
a Muslim should conduct ones self in a public
place apply and We see no reason why a Muslim
cannot go and watch a game of football even
if women are present. The key to note here
is that while at any public event, a Muslim
must conduct their actions according to
an Islamic personality defined within Islam.
As for the real world, it is through the
window of Islam that you will see the real
world. What has gone before, what challenges
are currently before us and what is yet
to come after we die?
We ask that you take another look at the
website from a fresh and new perspective.
We only ask that you put away stereotypes
and with a new set of eyes begin to identify
yourself as a REAL Muslim.

Comment: you
say we have choice to buy or not to buy
from these companies yea the alternative
to coca cola exists but wasis the alternative
to sky tv? and such companies its the muslims
backwardness today in business that leave
the rest of the muslims no choice but to
buy from jewish owned or favorable companies
intel is one of the companies u listen for
that we can always use amd but there are
many cases for example had microsoft been
listed shold i not use windows and office
products wat alternative would i have?
Answer:Thsnkyou for your
comments.
We acknowledge your
point and must reflect upon its validity.
It is true that many western companies and
multi-national corporations
do directly or indirectly support
the Israeli occupation of Muslim land.
Do Muslims just stop shopping with these
companies? if so is their an alternative?
if so why not use the alternatives?
The most important point is that a Muslim
should recognises the link between Companies
and the support these organisations have
for oppressing the Muslim masses worldwide.
For example, recently their was a UK documentary
about the company GAP, whereby it was alleged
and proven that Muslims where being exploited
in such an inhumane way that items that
where being sold for £60 in the shops
where being made by Muslim workers for less
than $0.25c per unit or at an hourly rate
of $.25c per hour, while standing for up
to 18 hours at a time. If this is not economic
exploitation, what is?
However, the Muslim in the west must realise
that they have a choice, wether to buy GAP
labelled products or to look elsewhere.
A Muslim knows that by buying GAP this action
will further allow the GAP Company as well
as the corrupt Muslim regimes to benefit
from this exploitation of Muslims. So Muslims
should not buy GAP for this reason. Muslims
are not swayed by mutli-million dollar adverts!
There are alternatives to buying goods
and Muslims are encouraged to use alternative
suppliers.
If however, there is no alternative then
a Muslim must decide whether to continue
to buy knowing that exploitation is occurring
against Muslims elsewhere. It becomes the
responsibility of Muslims to apply pressure
against the Muslim Regimes to act accordingly.
By buying a product, knowing the consequences
is better than buying blindly so that Muslims
don't fall into the stupid habit of supporting
such companies directly or indirectly.
Muslims are encouraged not to work for
these companies as they exploit and fund
armed organisations that plan and kill Muslim
populations worldwide.
REFLECTING
It seems OK for western companies
and governments to support such actions
by companies, yet when a sincere Muslim
wants to donate $100 to a Muslim political
revival group is unable to do so since this
would be classified through the eyes of
western governments as being an act of terrorism.
The president of the USA put it
quite clearly that if a Muslim was to carryout
a transaction of more than $100 to a terrorist
alleged group they will be arrested under
terrorism laws.
We live in a world, today where for
Muslims of Bosnia under the umbrella of
the United Nations had been supplied wooden
guns after they were told to hand in their
real weapons to fight a Serbian militia
that was being armed with real ammunition
by Britain and the US!
If Muslims do not support there brothers
and sisters who are laying down their lives
for the oppressed Muslim masses worldwide
then what future do Muslims have in a world
that is increasingly
being taught to hate and marginalizes
Muslims worldwide.
A Muslim can no longer
be allowed by the western powers to even
defend themselves against a murderous aggressor!
- No human rights for Muslims since no
Muslim regime recognises their existence.Where
were and are the Muslim armies of the world?
Who controls them? And is it not time that
Muslims removed these despotic leaders and
implement Al-Khilafah?
Feel free to respond to our comments.

Assalamulakum Brother,
Your question:
How can the capital
city of Khilafah state be in Jerusalem when
Israel is the accepted Country?
Answer:
In short who accepts
that Israel is a country? As far as Muslims
are concerned, the Zionist occupation of
Palestine is an Occupation. Muslims don't
accept the Kufr Zionist Israeli occupation
in the same way that Muslims denounce any
legitimacy of Muslim land falling into the
hands of the non-Muslims. This includes
among others, Kashmir (Hindu), Palestine
(Israeli Zionist), Algeria (French) Spain,
Mongolia, Kazakhstan (Russia), Uzbekistan
(Russia) , Afghanistan and Iraq (US &
Britain).
Muslims also do not recognise the United
Nations, European Court of Justice, International
Law and any man-made law. Also, Muslims
don't recognise any government that associates
with any of the above organisations or bodies.
This means 59 Muslim states with seats at
the UN.
Simply, the almighty Allah(swt) has furnished
the believing Muslims with divine law of
the Shar'iah and as Muslims we follow the
divine law.
We will inshallah, with the help of Allah(swt)
install the capitol of the Al-Khilafah in
Jerusalem. We can also make an assertion
that NO JEW will be killed that longs for
peace and stability in the region.

Comment: i
am doing a school course work on how Islam
is always related to terrorism these days,and
the effects Muslims have on this. Can you
please be kind enough to help me by giving
me information on how i can get this course

Thnak you for your co-operation.
Answer:
Please
read the following article that goes some
way to explain the hukm on listening to
or playing musical instruments.
Taken
from article (Click HERE):
Whilst I know that
music is allowed in Islam? What can we listen
too? The full answer posted by Sheikh Omar
posted before on music was as follows:
“...First of
all, Islamically we distinguish between
listening and hearing and between playing
instruments and singing in different environments
alone, with or without free mixing and with
or without Haram words or instruments. Singing
songs or Nasheed have the same rules as
far as Islam is concerned.
· It is permissible
to play instruments (A'zef) alone as long
as they are permissible instruments. However
playing string or wind instruments is prohibited.
· It is prohibited to listen (Istimaa'
i.e. live in the presence) to a person playing
prohibited instruments.
· Listening (Istimaa') to permissible
instruments in free mixing environments
is Haram (prohibited).
· It is permissible to hear (Samaa'
i.e. on tape) instruments alone regardless
of the types of instruments.
· It is prohibited to hear (Samaa'
i.e. on tape or passing by e.g. in the market)
instruments in free mixing environments.
· It is permissible to sing (Ghinaa)
alone without Haram words e.g. without Sexual,
Kufr or abusive words and without Haram
instruments.
· It is prohibited to sing (Ghinaa)
in free mixing environments with or without
Haram words or with or without Haram instruments.
· It is permissible to sing (Ghinaa)
without being in free mixing environments
and without Haram words or instruments.
· It is prohibited to listen (Istimaa')
to singing (Ghinaa) involving Haram words
or instruments with or without being in
free mixing environments.
· It is permissible to hear (Samaa')
or sing (Ghinaa) without involving Haram
Words with or without Haram instruments
providing there is no free mixing.
· It is prohibited to intentionally
hear (Samaa') singing
(Ghinaa) involving Haram words with or without
being in free mixing environments. ·
Note that it is also Haram to trade (i.e
buy, sell, produce, manufacture, develope,
hire or promote) music tapes or videos involving
singing in free mixing environments or with
Kufr words...” As for instruments
that sound like wind and/ or string instruments,
like tapping a pen on a table, or hitting
the rim of a glass, or a machine that has
various sounds but not actual wind and or
string instruments being played, these do
not take the same hukm of wind and string
instruments since the text is specific about
them. However the other matters outlined
above, such as free-mixing, Kufr words etc...
still apply.
I trust that this clarifies the position.

Comment: Hi
I have just stumbled upon your site as i
was looking to read up on Islam. I just
find it odd that you seem to attack the
West while at the same time having a co.uk
address. Just wondered how you can reconcile
the facts that you can't be happy in such
a corrupt society and yet live here. Please
understand this is a genuine question, I
seem to hear a lot of derision about the
way of life here from muslims and yes it
could improve but do you know a perfect
country. I would be very grateful for an
answer.
many thanks
Answer:
Living in Britain does not
mean that a Muslim or Non-Muslim needs to
accept citizenship. As Muslims we have a
duty placed upon us by the Allmighty that
to deliver the dawa, the divine call to
ISLAM. That those who seek salvation, the
very same salvation that Jesus [Isa (pbuh)]
spoke of will find within ISLAM. ISLAM is
more than a religion, it’s a way of
life that the creator endorsed above of
all others and it is the duty of Muslims
to propagate the faith, clarify it to those
who are unaware of its existence. It is
not a matter of being happy, as you have
correctly stated that there is no country
on the earth that is safe from the tyranny,
oppression and social unjustness. However,
it should be noted that not one country
in the the whole world implements ISLAM
as a system and as such ISLAM is the answer
to the worlds problems. The Taliban in Afghanistan,
the Muslim governments in all 60 Muslim
countries are not implementing ISLAM as
a political system.
Muslims in Britain do not live in Britain
because it’s the better of two evils,
they are in Britain to spread the word of
ISLAM. This is their purpose for living
in Britain. If there was an Islamic State,
a Muslim would be permitted to only live
in Britain on a temporary basis. Since such
a State does not exist, yet! Muslims can
reside in Britain under the protection provided
by the British Government.
I hope this goes some way in answering
your question. Please feel free to browse
the website, keep an open mind as to skip
the basics tenants of ISLAM and delve into
the core can be somewhat overwhelming. Start
by understanding that ISLAM is a System,
and not just a religion like Christianity,
Judaism or any other -ism. That the Islamic
system encompasses a unique Social dynamics
including a socio-political system, economic
and judicial systems that had been successfully
implemented for 1300 years.
Some FACTS:
- Did
you know that the Social System was implemented
by the Islamic State 1200 years before
Britain had done in 1900s!
- That
women were given equal rights under Islam
1300 years ago, while in Britain women
where given rights in the 1950s!
- That it was ISLAM that introduced by
Muslims the concept of a financial CHEQUE!
- That
many scientific studies into Medical science,
Oceanography, Archaeology, dentistry,
Astronomy were copied from Arabic to Latin
in the 17th century and claimed as new
discoveries by the western world!
- That ISLAM protected the live, honour,
property, wealth of Muslims and Non-Muslims,
and of people of all different faiths.
- That ISLAM abolished Slavery 1000 years
before the American revolution of 1700s!
- For 1300 years the tombs of the old
phroes of Egypt were undisturbed, knowing
too well that treasures lied beneath,
yet Muslims under the authority of ISLAM
were not permitted to disturb the graves
of the dead and so preserved the honour
and dignity of even a non-Muslim phroe
even after death! The British and Americans
desecrated the dead and took as thief’s,
those items and belonging of other nations.
- That ISLAM teaches a PRO-Life position.
