Il n’est pas seul à penser que le Sens actuel de l’Histoire va imposer à l’Humanité un transhumanisme technologique qui exclut l’Amour-Don et son Mystère et que, si on laisse faire, l’homme et la femme seront enfermés dans une Posthumanité qui n’aura plus rien d’humain. L’auteur espère que les Français ne laisseront pas faire. Tout en restant très attaché à son pays natal, cet « aïtachi » aime la vraie Histoire d’une France qui, malgré ses défauts, a été grande et rayonnante dans le passé, et a su s’enrichir de ses nombreux « invités » quand elle était « enracinée ». Mais il est très en colère en voyant se rabougrir sa 2ème patrie qu’on a voulu couper de ses racines, dont les citoyens ont été odieusement trompés, dont les enfants sont soit trop gâtés, soit indolents, soit en désarroi et sans défense, tous mal préparés pour construire ensemble un avenir désirable et durable. Il espère que ceux-ci sauront se rebeller contre les héritiers actuels (et sans repentance, eux !) des intellectuels soit-disant « éclairés » qui ont porté aux nues les Marx, Lénine, Staline, Mao et autres Pol-Pot, ont fomenté Mai 68 pour détruire notre civilisation en dévoyant les valeurs qui l’ont fondée. Ne retenant des Lumières que les rayons les plus noirs, ces déconstructeurs éteignent la France et l’Europe. Ils veulent que les peuples du vieux continent soient sans défense, offerts à tous les vents du monde. Ils sont au service d’une caste apatride qui pilote le Sens de l’Histoire en croyant maîtriser ces vents (elle ne maîtrise qu’un mauvais vent d’Ouest qui sévit depuis Mai 68 et ravage un écosystème judéo- chrétien que la sagesse humaine a mis des millénaires à construire). « Mundus damnatus » est une sorte de testament contextuel qu’un Veilleur et Sentinelle a écrit à ses enfants parce ceux-ci doutent de leur destin et de celui de leur pays alors que lui-même, optimiste incorrigible, veut rester aussi fier d’être Français (de la France d’hier et de demain, inventive, humaniste, généreuse, pas toujours exemplaire mais toujours améliorable) qu’il est fier d’être Basque et Européen. Provocateur par nature et par sa culture d’origine, il a voulu rendre son écriture « piquante » en la cuisinant au piment d’Espelette. Mais parce qu’une célèbre guyanaise a un jour déclaré qu’elle était « une sorcière venue butiner la jeunesse », il s’est permis de rajouter du piment de Cayenne, pensant que ce serait plus « réveilleur ». Les lecteurs soucieux de l’avenir de leur descendance comprendront, mieux que d’autres sans doute, son long cri d’alarme et d’espérance. Le contexte Commencée en 2015 par un Veilleur et Sentinelle qui redoute les conséquences du « droit à l’enfant » que donne la loi Taubira de 2013, la rédaction de Mundus Damnatus s’est poursuivie au fil du temps et des évènements politiques français et étrangers parfois surprenants, parfois cocasses, qui se sont produits jusqu’à son édition du 1er avril 2017. L’auteur résume en préface son analyse d’une évolution de notre société et les dangers qu’il est loin d’être le seul à trouver inquiétants. Il a cru devoir les dénoncer en tant que simple citoyen dans la perspective des élections présidentielles de 2017 et futures. Il dévoile en postface ses motivations plus personnelles et ses convictions partagées par de nombreux citoyens qui n’osent pas s’exprimer. Ayant conscience du contenu politiquement incorrect de son essai, il en a réservé la diffusion à ses proches et à quelques amis. Mais il n’est pas opposé à une diffusion plus large si les circonstances s’y prêtent. En 2016 les peuples avaient commencé à dire « Zut !» aux grands médias et aux sondages qui manipulent l’opinion. (Brexit, Trump, primaires françaises). On espérait un sursaut salutaire des Français en 2017 après le quinquennat désastreux de François Hollande. Les électeurs ont opté pour un « dégagisme » général, partiellement réussi. Ainsi est arrivé au pouvoir un « X-on » mystérieux qui promet de redresser la France en rompant avec les vieilles habitudes d’un monde politique que le peuple ne supporte plus. L’auteur n’a pas pu résister au plaisir d’actualiser son essai après les élections qui se sont achevées le 18 juin 2017. Il lui a suffi de rajouter ici et là quelques commentaires, aisément repérables, pour que Mundus damnatus conserve tout son intérêt. Lisse comme un play-boy de magazine, très intelligent, Emmanuel Macron a fasciné les foules avec ses discours hyper syncrétiques, plutôt vagues mais parfaitement maîtrisés et médiatisés. Les bonimenteurs télé-évangéliques peuvent aller se rhabiller ! Il a réussi en un an ce qu’essayait de faire François Bayrou depuis 40 ans. Avec l’aide de ce dernier qui plus est ! Coqueluche des médias (tiens donc !), l’angélique Macron, bulle qu’on a fait monter, a éliminé le favori Fillon qu’on a fait chuter, désailé « par hasard », mais qui n’était sans doute qu’un mauvais cheval, finalement. Devra-t-on encore subir « un quinquennat pour rien » si Emmanuel Macron, qui se prétend « anti-Système », est en fait mandaté par une ploutocratie ultralibérale et anti-démocrate prête à tout pour préserver un Système qui échappe au contrôle citoyen ? Emmanuel signifie « Dieu avec nous ». La question est : « Dieu pour qui, et En marche vers quoi ? ». L’élection de ce « Jupiter » pourrait avoir été une superbe escroquerie fomentée par une oligarchie élitiste et matérialiste, bien installée, qui refuse toute alternance démocratique pouvant nuire à leurs intérêts (et à leur rêve secret de gouverner le monde sans partage). Macron serait alors, « comme prévu », leur fidèle serviteur. Un pion en mission. Mais ... qui sait ? Ce personnage ambitieux sort de l’ordinaire et fait penser à Bonaparte.

  • The Potential Adoption of Islamic Accounting Standards Developed by the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financi
    The Potential Adoption of Islamic Accounting Standards Developed by the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI) by Islamic Banks in the United Arab Emirates Mohammad Haroun Sharairi A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Business Administration of the University of Canberra July 2016 i Abstract This study investigated the potential impact of applying the accounting standards of the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI) in Islamic banks in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). This study aimed to examine the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) currently in use by Islamic banks in the UAE, as compared to the AAOIFI accounting standards, in order to identify the differences and determine which system may better satisfy user needs in the UAE, as judged from the perspective of respondents to a research survey. This study also provided an understanding of the roles of key personnel in developing the AAOIFI’s standards in the UAE and the factors leading to the development of these standards were explored. Data was collected for this purpose through examination of documents, conducting a questionnaire survey with professionals and managers of Islamic banks in the UAE and conducting interviews with key personnel involved in the development of the Islamic Accounting Standards. It was found that the main participant in developing the Islamic Accounting Standards in the UAE is the Dubai International Finance Centre (DIFC). This study found that there is a serious concern, particularly in the Islamic countries, with regard to the IFRS dealing with transactions involving interest (Riba).

  • ISLAMIC TERRORISM”: a Tale of the Ambiguous Terminology
    AL-ALBAB Volume 5 Number 1 June 2016 THE SO-CALLED “ISLAMIC TERRORISM”: A Tale of the Ambiguous Terminology Dwi Surya Atmaja Pontianak State Institute of Islamic Studies [email protected] Abstract “What does the term “terrorism” mean.” Why does the term “terrorism” often identified as Islam? “If terrorism is an ism that affects “terror” that it generates, while Islam which literally means “peace”, then the two terms certainly mis- match! Such question and statement show Muslims’ concern over frequent phe- nomena of “terrorism” using Islamic religious symbols. The research undertaken proved that there are three explanations. First, a close tripartite network con- nection between “terrorism experts” and the circles of power policy holders who are also supported by senior journalists in the international media influence. Second, a long tradition of Orientalist studies in the study of the Middle East re- gion and the study of religion in the Arab culture. Figures such as Bernard Lewis, Noah Feldman, Raphael Patai and other Middle East experts often sit with other experts in the field of terrorism (the first factor) and become main advisors and expert staff for the US government in the formulation of action to counter terror. It was the catalyst for the transmission of viewpoint which then decorated orien- talist discourse of Islamic terrorism in the process of political policies. Third, a lot of Islamic terrorism discourse refers to the long tradition of cultural stereotypes and biased representations of the media that often portray Islam and Muslims as ‘the enemy’. The reason is that it reflects the perspective of socio-Western culture that fears and worries the other oriental parties which has been stereotyped since the imperial era.

The proposed theoretical framework contains four fundamental characters of directors which are siddiq (truthfulness), fatanah (intelligent), tabligh (deliver) and amanah (trustworhtiness). This framework is hoped to increase the integrity and moral behaviours of the directors and eventually preventing them from involve in various unethical conduct especially in business activities that will tarnish the economic development and growth of a country.

  • Learning Islam: Identity, Education, and Empire by Khalid A. Afsar A
    Learning Islam: Identity, Education, and Empire By Khalid A. Afsar A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Education Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Na’ilah Suad Nasir, Co-Chair Professor Ramon Grosfoguel, Co-Chair Professor Patricia Baquedano-Lopez Professor Hamid Algar Summer 2017 Abstract Learning Islam: Identity, Education, and Empire By Khalid A. Afsar Doctor of Philosophy in Education University of California, Berkeley Professor Na’ilah Suad Nasir, Co-Chair Professor Ramon Grosfoguel, Co-Chair Situating education within world-systems analysis and in the longue durée of capitalist history affords a critical view of public schooling and Islamic education in the US. While the American Muslim community copes with the aftermath of 9/11 and the effects of the war on terror, the business of providing Islamic education to young American Muslims and educating them about the larger world they live in remains a challenge. Public schooling represents democracy, the right to free and universal education, and the prospect of social mobility, but it also hides the underlying historical forces of colonialism, capitalism, cultural domination, cultural genocide, and segregation. Yet, unlike many centuries past, Islamic education during the Cold War also served a geopolitical agenda against communism, distorting and defaming the teachings of Islam. Contrasting epistemological and ontological dissimilarities between California public school standards and Islamic education makes visible the tensions and tendencies that arise out of combining the two in a private Islamic school. Centering on a private Islamic school located in the Silicon Valley, and with a view to serving the learning needs of Muslim children in the US post 9/11, this dissertation surveys the fears and hopes of the Muslim community, and the opportunities and challenges of Islamic education that lie ahead.

  • Study Guide for Introduction to Islam for Christians to Be Used Along with the Video of the Same Name On
    Study Guide for Introduction to Islam for Christians To be used along with the video of the same name on www.ChristianfromMuslim.com Summary and Notes: This lesson is meant to be an introduction to Islam for Christians who do not know about Islam, but would like to. Muslims taking this course, or Christians knowledgeable about Islam could skip this lesson. However, while presenting the basics of Islam, Dr. Cynthia does give insights and examples which might interest experienced Christians and Muslims. In a study group, this lesson would also allow experienced members the opportunity to share their insights with the group. THE 5 PILLARS OF ISLAM – Required Actions 1. Creed, shahadah: One becomes a Muslim by confessing this statement of faith in Arabic: “There is no God but Allah, and Mohammed is the prophet of Allah” 2. Prayer, salat: several times a day 3. Fasting, sawm: fasting, mainly during the Islamic month of Ramadan 4. Alms, zakat: giving, primarily to the poor 5. Pilgrimage, hajj: pilgrimage to Mecca More on the Creed Muslims believe that everyone is born Muslim, but due to influences like culture, many of us need to come back to Islam. We do this by reciting the shahadah. Notice that simply believing in God is not enough. Acceptance of the Prophet Mohammed is essential to be Muslim. Words or faith? Ideally, the creed should be recited from the heart, agreeing with it. But this has not always been the case. • For example, historically in mass conversions when large groups were instructed to recite Arabic words, unknown to them, or face death.

  • To Understand the Jihadist Phenomenon
    Documento Análisis 28/2015 13th, May 2015 Ignacio Fuente Cobo Historical approach to the yihadist phenomenon Visit the WEB Receive Newsletter This document has been translated by a Translation and Interpreting Degree student doing work experience, ISABEL LIMA, under the auspices of the Collaboration Agreement between the Universidad Pontificia Comillas, Madrid, and the Spanish Institute of Strategic Studies. Historical approach to the yihadist phenomenon Abstract: To understand the jihadist phenomenon in its contemporary meaning, it is necessary to study the internal struggles that have undermined the Muslim world since its inception. It is by analyzing the nature of Jihadism and placing Islam in its historical, social, political and religious context, that we can prove that it is not a product arising spontaneously, nor is it the result of political mistakes made in the modern times, or the logical consequence of the injustices that plague Muslim societies. On the contrary it responds to some root causes that have shaped the Islam throughout history. It is therefore necessary to break through the historical analysis, the jihadist discourse that justifies the execution of terrorist acts on the basis of democratic systems´ demonization and the de-humanization of all those considered outside the Islamic law. Only Insisting on the historical facts will it be possible to de-construct the idea deemed as indisputable, that explains jihadist terrorism as a defensive reaction of Islam, almost as a necessity, as opposed to the politics of aggression implemented both by the West and the Arab states themselves. Keywords: Jihadism, Hanbali, Salafist, Muslim Brotherhood, Afghanistan, Ibn Taymiyya, Wahabism, Takfir.
