  • A Critique of 'Honor Diaries' (A Production of the Clarion Project
    A Critique of ‘Honor Diaries’ (A production of the Clarion Project) By Azeezah Kanji & Khadijah Kanji for Noor Cultural Centre www.noorculturalcentre.ca Criticisms of the film discussed in this piece: 1) The film doesn’t actually help us to understand the issues It gives no context to the various issues it mentions It uses statistics selectively 2) The film promotes racist stereotypes 3) The film works against the cause of those in Canada and the West working on ending violence against women Misallocation of resources Diversion from systemic patriarchy 4) The film offers no productive suggestions for action 1) The film doesn’t actually help us to understand the issues Raheel Raza (one of the nine women starring in the film, who organized the Toronto (and other) screenings) says that the first step towards solving issues of violence against women in Muslim communities is promoting knowledge. And yet the film does not produce any real understanding of the issues that women face; on the contrary, it actually creates a lot of misunderstanding: It gives no context to the various issues it mentions The nine women starring in the film are originally from different parts of the world (Iran, Afghanistan, Iraq, Sudan, and India), now living in different parts of the West (the UK, USA, and Canada). Although the movie supposedly focuses on Muslim countries and diaspora, one of the nine women (Jasvinder Sanghera) is neither Muslim nor from a Muslim- majority country (her family background is Sikh Indian). Her inclusion in the Honor Diaries ‘salon session’ is supposedly legitimised by the claim that many of the female victims of violence she works with in England are Muslim; however, a significant portion of her testimony related to the suicide of her own (also Sikh) sister following a forced marriage.

    Cultural & social affairs Department OIC islamophobia Observatory Monthly Bulletin – March 2014 I. Manifestations of Islamophobia: 1. UK: Legoland cancels Muslim family fun day in fear of “guest and employee safety” – Legoland cancelled a family outing organized by a prominent Muslim scholar in fear of guest and staff safety after they received a number of threatening calls, emails and social media posts. The family fun day which was organised by Sheikh Haitham al Haddad of the Muslim Research and Development Foundation (MRDF) for Sunday 9th March and would not be going ahead after a barrage of violent messages were made by far- right Islamophobic extremists. The English Defence League, Casuals United and other far-right groups vowed to hold a protest outside Legoland, many threatening to use violence to prevent the family outing. Legoland issued the following statement: The Legoland Windsor Resort prides itself on welcoming everyone to our wonderful attraction; however due to unfortunate circumstances the private event scheduled for Sunday 9th March will no longer take place. This was an incredibly difficult made after discussions with the organisers and local Thames Valley Police, following the receipt of a number of threatening phone calls, emails and social media posts to the Resort over the last couple of weeks. These alone have led us to conclude that we can no longer guarantee the happy fun family event which was envisaged or the safety of our guests and employees on the day – which is always our number one priority. “Sadly it is our belief that deliberate misinformation fuelled by a small group with a clear agenda was designed expressly to achieve this outcome.

    International Journal of English Research International Journal of English Research ISSN: 2455-2186; Impact Factor: RJIF 5.32 Received: 01-04-2020; Accepted: 06-05-2020; Published: 09-05-2020 www.englishjournals.com Volume 6; Issue 3; 2020; Page No. 01-05 Ayaan Hirsi Ali: An infidel Alka Verma1, Ruchi Mishra Tiwari2 1 Research Scholar, Rabindranath Tagore University, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India 2 Head, School of languages, Rabindranath Tagore University, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India Abstract Ayaan Hirsi Ali is not a name that needed any introduction to recognize in English literature world as well as in political scenario. This Somalian writer makes her name not only famous but controversial also with her book infidel. Infidel is her autobiography. It is not only the autobiography but also her call to be infidel and being rebellion to her religion. She is one of those feminists who refused to be silent when it comes for the name of women rights to live by their own. She was wholeheartedly praised by the world for her Fearless thoughts about being infidel and criticizing her own religion. Her book infidel reflects her own journey. The series of thoughts and impression of self-realization reflects in her book. There is no room for imagination as the novel is based on her true story and the incidents, which happened with her while travelling from Somalia to USA. The opposite circumstances of the religious bindings made her infidel though she did not want to be one. Now she is always ready to help those who want to get freedom and live life.

  • A Multimodal Telecinematic Analysis Abstract the Novelty of This Study
    Journal of Gender and Social Issues Spring 2019, Vol. 18, Number 1 ©Fatima Jinnah Women University, Rawalpindi Unfolding the Honour Killing Documentary : A Multimodal Telecinematic Analysis Abstract The novelty of this study lies in the self-agonized experience of the survivors of honour killing victim and the least work has been done on this award winning documentary. This research interblends gender studies, feminism, film discourse and telecinematic features through multimodal discourse analysis. This study aims to probe existence of visual, aural, motion, editing and other colour modes to heighten the voice of honour l that utterances, scenes, background music, modes, modality markers and several telecinematic features have have any connection with Islam rather it is a social pressure which compels male members of the family to exhibit pseudo honour by shedding the blood of a helpless girl. Keywords: Honour killing, Feminism, Documentary, Multimodality, Telecinematic INTRODUCTION The award winning documentary has been directed by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy. It is a love story of the young couple attempt to murder through the court and eventually forgiving them under social pressure for reconciliation. Multimodal Theory elucidates two features for instance semiotic aspects of communication whose ingredients are all words, colours, pictorial representation, sounds and musical elements. Secondly, the communicative practice includes textual data, multiple meanings, visuals, narratology, ideation, intentions and design features (Kress & van Leeuwen, 2001). Kress and van Leeuwen (2001) opine that discourse analysis has gone beyond text and speech; and multimodal has engulfed many other modes o ________________ Zafar Ullah, PhD student, English Linguistics, Lecturer in Department of English Studies, NUML, Islamabad E-mail: [email protected] 84 Zafar Ullah Martinec (2005), Unsworth and Cleirigh (2009), Machin (2009), Jewitt (2009) etc have worked on multimodal discourse analysis.

Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research 3 | Islam is not the Cause of Honor Killings. It’s Part of the Solution. This part of the history of honor killings you’re unlikely to read or hear about. In 1947 in the British colony of Nigeria, English judges had to overturn what they viewed as the backwards ruling of a local Shariah court. A man had been sentenced to death for murder, but the British superior court pointed out that it had been a crime of passion. The man had killed his wife’s lover. The Shariah court had been unimpressed by this excuse, but the British court decided that the murderer did not deserve to die.1 Yes, you read that correctly. A Shariah court, applying Shariah law, did not buy the ‘crime of passion’ argument that has long served as a justification for honor killings. The British court did. Honor killings are never far from the headlines. The Islamophobic Clarion Fund ​ even released a documentary called Honor Diaries, which repeats the accusation ​ ​ that Islam supports honor killings and that these acts of violence are endemic to Muslim societies.

    Council on American-Islamic Relations 453 New Jersey Ave S.E. Washington, D.C. 20003 Tele 202 488 8787 Fax 202 488 0833 [email protected], www.cair.com September 4, 2014 Ms. Kathy Calvin President and Chief Executive Officer United Nations Foundation 1750 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Suite 300 Washington, D.C. 20006 Fax: (202)887-9021 Dear Ms. Calvin: I am writing to request that the United Nations Foundation withdraw its support for a screening of the anti-Muslim Clarion Project’s film Honor Diaries scheduled for September 11, 2014 in Washington, D.C. The enormous importance of eradicating violence against women from all societies is undermined by the agenda of the film’s executive producers, anti-Islam activists Ayaan Hirisi Ali and Raphael Shore. Hirsi Ali has a reputation for anti-Muslim and anti-Constitution rhetoric. Shore is a key member of the Clarion Project team. Ayaan Hirsi Ali’s anti-Muslim and anti-Constitution rhetoric During the course of a single 2007 interview with Reason Magazine Ali said, “I think that we are at war with Islam” and called for Islam to be “defeated.” Later in the interview, Ali suggested that the U.S. Constitution should be amended to allow for discrimination against Muslims saying, “There were no Muslim schools when the constitution was written. There were no jihadists.”i Earlier this year, Brandeis University withdrew its invitation to Hirsi Ali to receive an honorary degree at commencement ceremonies. In its statement announcing the withdrawal of Ali's invitation, the university said: "We cannot overlook that certain of her past statements are inconsistent with Brandeis University's core values." Raphael Shore and the Clarion Project The Clarion Project (formerly the Clarion Fund) is a shadowy nonprofit group that produces and distributes anti-Muslim propaganda films such as Obsession: Radical Islam’s War Against the West and The Third Jihad: Radical Islam’s Vision for America.
