[b]THE REVIVAL PERSON OF 2005[/b]

OK people, its that time of the year again...its time to vote for The Revival person of 2005.
[b]
Last years winners are here:[/b]

so many things have happened this year, nationally, internationally...who has stood out? Who has stood up for Islam? Who has been the outstanding Muslim of the year for you? Who has been active throughout the year? who has made a difference? who has defended Islam the year over? who has influenced you the most this year?

Are you a walking, talking advert for Islam?

salaam

My editorial in the next issue of The Revival is on the following issue.

[b]Are you a walking, talking advert for Islam?[/b]

if not , you should be.

The way you talk, walk, behave, interact at home, school, college, uni. work, and everywhere...... people should think good of you, respect you, be impressed by your manners and most important of all... you should be giving a good image of Islam and the Muslims..

Is Islam compatible with the West?

salaam

[b]Is Islam compatible with the West? [/b]
As extremists increasingly claim it is not, and attack Western values not only through rhetoric but acts of violence, many Muslims find themselves being forced to respond by re-examining their values.
Here two Britons, both born into the Muslim faith, explain why they have ended up following different paths as far as their religion is concerned.

Nagina Shah
Nagina Shah, who walked away from her faith and family 14 years ago after a forced marriage, believes that traditional Islam and modern Western life do not mix.

IS ISLAM OUT OF DATE?

salaam

The biggest attack on Islam today is that it is out of date; it is behind date!
The questions asked are how can you follow a book 1400 years old?
how can you use barbaric punishment systems?
why cant women even wear short sleeve shirts but men can?
why cant islam deal with homosexuality?
why is islam homophobic?
why cant islam allow boy/girlfriends?
why not sex before marriage?
why cant muslim even drink?

All these questions try to argue that Islam is not up to touch with modern society...it needs updating and modernising.

The Tottenham Ayatollah Revisited

[b]The Tottenham Ayatollah Revisited[/b]
In 1997, journalist and documentary-maker Jon Ronson spent a year making a film about Omar Bakri Mohammed, one of Britain's most high-profile Islamic extremists, and one of whom the government has said he won't be allowed to return to the UK. Since the London attacks of July 7th, Muslim clerics like Omar Bakri have found themselves under an intense media spotlight, and the government has responded with a clampdown on their activities and the threat of deportations. Channel 4 is re-screening The Tottenham Ayatollah with a new introduction from Ronson.

I'm going to keep this short and to the point because it's all been said before by far more eloquent people than me.

And our words have no impact upon you, therefore I'm going to talk to you in a language that you understand.
