End of Local Education Authorities

Parents’ groups, charities, faith bodies, and mutual organizations will have greater role in delivering educational services under plans being drawn up by both Labour and Tory parties. Swedish system of independent state schools, financed by vouchers, is now inspiring the Tory Party to set British schools free from LEAs. The proposal will end 60 years of local government control of education,

Ali & Jamal

For those of you who have read current, recent or earlier/past issues then you shud be familiar with Ali & Jamal- a regular in The Revival magazine.

So what do ppl make of it?
Anyone read it?

Is it getting old and out of touch or is it still as appealing as before?

How can it be improved?

Do we have any Ali or Jamals out there :-)?

Any motivated writers who can take Ali & Jamal to the next level?

sexual abuse- a taboo in muslim community?

published by Sajid Iqbal on 22 April, 2008 - 16:17

salaam

This is, especially child abuse, a topic we are writing on in a future issue of The Revival Magazine.

Its an issue which unfortunately is not openly discussed in mosques/ radio discussions/homes etc....

it skind of brushed under the carpet. Its like a massive taboo.

It needs to be raised. It needs to be addressed at all levels/platforms/ people of power and responsibility.

The victims shouldnt feel shame. they have been abused by sick people.

im sure this is an issue that exist across the UK in muslim communities.

does anyone else know of victims or am i over reacting?

is anyone aware of any help /advice/counselling available?

whose job should it be to raise this issue? are we all responsible to protect our young ones from this abuse?

Help!!

Hi Everyone.

I hope this is ok to ask, and I am aware this may sound a little strange.

As party of my university course, I have to interview someone of a religion other than Christianity, and so far everyone I have found has fallen though. Is there anyone in this couple who would be up for answering some questions on their own and Islams view on a few different things. If so could you message me.

many thanks

Good Advice - Think Twice!

published by Ya'qub on 21 April, 2008 - 09:14

I thought we should have a thread for useful nuggets of information or wisdom that we come across. Let me get the ball rolling:

Ali ibn Abi Talib, radi Allahu 'anhu, stood with a companion of his near a grave one day and asked him, 'If he could come back to this Dunya, what do you think he would do?'

He replied, 'He would do nothing but good deeds.'

So Ali, radi Allahu 'anhu, said, 'If it is not going to be him, then let it be you!'
