Surely, during their General Allah loves not the proud and Meetings to improve the boastful (4:37). their Tarteel. Lajna Matters November 2016 Ahadith None among you is a true believer unless he likes for his brother (in faith) what he likes for himself (Bukhari, Kitab ul Eeman). Al-Bara bin Azib said: "The Messenger of Allah used to go between the rows from one side to another, patting our shoulders and chests and saying: 'Do not make your rows ragged or your hearts will be filled with enmity toward one another” (Sunan an-Nasa'i). Abdullah reported Allah's Messengersaw as saying: “If you are three, two amongst you should not converse secretly between yourselves to the exclusion of the other (third one), until some other people join him (and dispel his loneliness), for it may hurt his feelings” (Sahih Muslim). The height of excellence is that you should strengthen the ties of relationship with the one who severs them and be generous to the one who is miserly to you and be forgiving to the one who abuses you (Masnad Ahmad). Abu Hurairah relates that the Holy Prophet saw said: “On the Day of Judgment, Allah the Exalted will call: Where are those who loved each other for My Glory? Today I shall give them shelter in the shade of My Mercy. Today there is no shade besides My shade” (Muslim). Writings of the Promised Messiahas Be kind and merciful to humanity, for all are His creatures; do not oppress them with your tongue, or hands, or in any other way. Always work for the good of mankind. Never unduly assert yourselves with pride over others, even those who are placed under you. Never use abusive language for anyone, even though he abuses you. Be humble in spirit, kind and gentle, forgiving and sympathetic towards all wishing them well, so that you should be accepted…. You cannot be accepted in the presence of the Lord unless you are pure, both on the outside and inside. Immediately compose all your differences and make peace among yourselves: forgive the transgression of your brothers for indeed he is evil who is not willing to make peace with his brother…. Leave off all vanity and emphasis on self and all mutual resentments, all unpleasantness. Though truthful and justified in your stance, be humble in your demeanor as though you were in the wrong, so that you yourself should be treated with forgiveness (Our Teaching). Page 2 of 68 Lajna Matters November 2016 Message from Sadr Lajna, Saliha Malik Sahiba In this issue of Lajna Matters, we are reminded about the wonderful Jalsas of the past few months and the extraordinary spiritual uplift they bring. Our Beloved Huzooratba has explained that these are training opportunities for our self- reformation, our individual and communal progress. Allah guided the Promised Messiahas to hold Jalsa Salana with the elevated purpose as follows: ….to be attracted towards God, to advance in knowledge and understanding, to bring about positive changes making them part of one's life, to save oneself from the desires and futilities of the world, to make a pledge and a promise to spread the message of Islam in the world, and to fulfill it with all of one's abilities and capabilities, and to enhance the relationship of love, affection and brotherhood (Friday Sermon, Jalsa Salana Germany 9/2/16). One of our goals in this quarter is to make our homes, families and communities shine with True Sisterhood. Therefore, please join me in reviewing and reflecting on the wonderful and inspiring Khutba selected for this issue: Review of Jalsa Salana Germany (9/9/16) and let us all strive to make our daily lives, our homes and our meetings filled with ‘service, love and cheerfulness’. We must overcome ill feelings of rancor and resentment for others because we wish to please Allah, make our hearts ready for Him and be counted as one of the companions of the Promised Messiahas, Insha’Allah. The Holy Prophetsaw admonished us: Entertain no ill will or envy nor indifference nor cut off interaction; be servants of Allah, brethren to each other. It is not permissible for a Muslim to keep away from his brother for more than three days (Bukhari and Muslim). May Allah enable us all to do so, as this is the true face and essence of Islam, which we are entrusted to bring to mankind, Ameen.

Wassalaam Faiza Arjaoui Assistant Lajna Section ********************************************************************************************************** November 3rd, 2016 Dear Sister Sadr Lajna Imaillah USA, Assalamo Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatahu. I am acknowledging receipt of your activity report dated July 2016, Jazaka’Mullah. You have provided a good account of the many activities that members have carried out in July. However, the main highlight of this time was the preparation and conduction of the Jalsa Salana, USA, an event, which bought spiritual enhancement to member’s lives, Mash ‘Allah.

May Allah the Almighty enable Lajna Imaillah USA to succeed in their sincere endeavors, Ameen. Please convey my Salaam to all the sisters in the USA. Wassalaam Rehana Ahmad In-Charge Lajna Section Page 4 of 68 Lajna Matters November 2016 Selection of Huzoor’s atba Sermons Review of Jalsa Salana Germany 2016 - September 9, 2016 Today Khalifatul Masih Vatba delivered the Friday Sermon from Ba'itus Subooh, Frankfurt, Germany. After Tashahhud and Surah Fatihah, Huzooratba said that by the Grace of Allah the Jalsa Salana of Jama'at Ahmadiyya Germany completed its three days of programs, which ended last Sunday. He said efforts are made throughout the year to prepare for the Jalsa Salana. Hundreds of workers start their work a few days earlier but once Jalsa begins it seems to end suddenly. Three days pass in a blink of an eye. People living abroad may think that here Jalsa is conducted in a huge constructed hall. They get everything readymade so what work do the volunteers have? Despite their huge halls, efforts have to be made, which may need really hard work also. Despite the huge halls, arrangements for sleeping, cooking, and serving food all have to be made. And then there are many other temporary arrangements that need to be arranged. All this work is done outside the main building and marquees are also erected. Then inside the halls seating arrangements, sound systems and many more things need to be arranged, which are done by volunteers mostly from Khuddam, and some from Ansar and Lajna. Then during the Jalsa days there are arrangements for cooking, serving food, cleaning, parking, security, checking in, and MTA, who also arrange and telecast many programs along with the Jalsa proceedings. The volunteers take care of all these things; among them are men, women, youth, girls, and children. Huzooratba said that all these volunteers deserve the special prayers of the Jalsa participants and generally from all the Ahmadis living anywhere in the world that Allah the Exalted through His volunteers made it possible to participate, listen, and watch the proceedings of the Jalsa.

FBI, No. 12-56867, 2019 WL 961953 (9th Cir. Feb. 28, 2019). As Plaintiffs have explained, the government’s ongoing retention and searching of their personal data and communications establishes their standing to pursue declaratory and injunctive relief. See Pls.’ Opp. to Gov’t Officials’ MTD 11- 17. The Ninth Circuit’s decision in Fazaga directly supports Plaintiffs’ standing. In Fazaga, the plaintiffs alleged that the FBI conducted an unlawful, covert surveillance program that gathered information about Muslims based on their religious identity. 2019 WL 961953, at *3. In addition to other relief, the plaintiffs sought the expungement of all information obtained or derived through the program and maintained by the government. Id. at *28-29. The government defendants argued that expungement was not available because the plaintiffs “advance[d] no plausible claim of an ongoing constitutional violation.” Id. at *29.

This case concerns an FBI-paid agent provocateur who, by 3 misrepresenting his identity, infiltrated several mainstream mosques in Southern 4 California, based on the FBI’s instructions that he gather information on Muslims. 5 2. The FBI then used him to indiscriminately collect personal 6 information on hundreds and perhaps thousands of innocent Muslim Americans in 7 Southern California. Over the course of fourteen months, the agents supervising 8 this informant sent him into various Southern California mosques, and through his 9 surveillance gathered hundreds of phone numbers, thousands of email addresses, 10 hundreds of hours of video recordings that captured the interiors of mosques, 11 homes, businesses, and the associations of hundreds of Muslims, thousands of 12 hours of audio recording of conversations — both where he was and was not 13 present — as well as recordings of religious lectures, discussion groups, classes, 14 and other Muslim religious and cultural events occurring in mosques.

The Government asserted the state secrets privilege and sought dismissal of Respondents’ free exercise and religious discrimination claims on that basis. The court of appeals held that, with respect to electronic surveillance collected as part of the investigation, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act provides for ex parte and in camera review of the lawfulness of the surveillance, and that procedure displaces, at least at the threshold, the rule permitting dismissal of a claim based on state secrets. The question presented is: Whether the state secrets evidentiary privilege recognized in Reynolds v. United States authorizes the dismissal of claims challenging the lawfulness of electronic surveillance, particularly where Section 1806(f) of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), 50 U.S.C.

David Gaubatz Dedicated to the memory of H. Baldwin Sperry —Paul Sperry This page intentionally left blank A note of caution from the authors This is not a book about Islam or Muslims in general. It is about the threat from Shariah Islam and violent jihad propagated by a criminal class of Muslims known as the Muslim Brotherhood or the “Ikhwan mafia.” This secretive organization dominates most established Muslim groups and mosques in America while exploiting, manipulating, and even victimizing law-abiding Muslim Americans.
