To read Part One, Click Here Misconception # 22 (Islam prescribes death penalty for apostates) It is often propagated that Islam ordains death penalty for apostates i.e. those who leave the religion of Islam. However when we understand Qur’an and Hadiths in totality it becomes absolutely clear that there is no death penalty prescribed for mere apostates. Qur’an commands no such penalty for apostasy, and any hadith which contradicts Qur’an is to be outright rejected as I have clarified many times before. Qur’an states: Indeed, those who have believed then disbelieved, then believed, then disbelieved, and then increased in disbelief - never will Allah forgive them, nor will He guide them to a way. [4:137] Qur’an mentions no worldly punishment for apostasy at all, even for people who apostatize twice let alone once. Qur’an states at another place: And say, "The truth is from your Lord, so whoever wills - let him believe; and whoever wills - let him disbelieve."… [18:29] Qur’an talks about free will of people to disbelieve, yes it talks about punishment in hereafter, but it does not talk about worldly punishment for disbelieving or apostasy. Some ignorant people and Islamophobes misuse a verse to claim that Qur’an asks to kill apostates. They use a false translation of Wahabi Muhsin Khan, although Wahabism has nothing to do with Islam. Let us look at accurate translation of the verse along with context. Qur’an states: They long that ye should disbelieve even as they disbelieve, that ye may be upon a level (with them). So choose not friends from them till they 3 forsake their homes in the way of Allah; if they turn back (to enmity) then take them and kill them wherever ye find them, and choose no friend nor helper from among them [4:89] Nowhere is the verse talking about killing apostates, however Islamophobes misuse Muhsin Khan Wahabi’s translation who has falsely translated it as “But if they turn back (from Islam), take (hold) of them and kill them.” That is a clear false translation with wrong brackets being added according to context of the verse as it is talking about situation of war and those hypocrites who turned back in enmity. Let us look at next verse which provides context to this verse, it states: Except those who seek refuge with a people between whom and you there is a covenant, or (those who) come unto you because their hearts forbid them to make war on you or make war on their own folk. Had Allah willed He could have given them power over you so that assuredly they would have fought you. So, if they hold aloof from you and wage not war against you and offer you peace, Allah alloweth you no way against them. [4:90] So the context is clearly proving that it is talking about those people with whom treaty was made and they broke treaty and made war. There is absolutely no verse in Qur’an which asks to kill apostates, rather Qur’an says contrary i.e. not to give any worldly punishment but to leave it to Allah who will punish in hereafter. Now no hadith whether found in Bukhari or wherever can supersede Qur’an. Still I will explain hadiths and how they are misused by Islamophobes and some unaware Muslims. Hadith # 1 Narrated `Ikrima: Some Zanadiqa (atheists) were brought to `Ali and he burnt them. The news of this event, reached Ibn `Abbas who said, "If I had been in his ,forbade it, saying (ﷺ) place, I would not have burnt them, as Allah's Messenger 'Do not punish anybody with Allah's punishment (fire).' I would have killed them Whoever changed his' ,(ﷺ) according to the statement of Allah's Messenger Islamic religion, then kill him.'" [Sahih Bukhari Vol. 9, Book 84, Hadith 57] 4 This hadith is a lie upon Sayyidna Ali (a.s) the beloved cousin of Prophet. It has come from a narrator “IKRIMA” who used to cater hatred for Ali (Prophetic family) and belonged to a Kharj’ite (heretical) cult. He was also deemed a liar by hadith specialists. After death of Ibn Abbas (ra), his son Ali bin Abdullah bin Abbas imprisoned Ikrima. When he was asked for the reasoning, he said: He is narrating lies on behalf of my father (Ibn Abbas) [al-Dhahabi in Meezan ul Ai’tidal (3/93). Al- Mizzi in Tahdhib ul Kamaal (20/264)] Sa’eed bin Jubayr and Ibn Sarin also called Ikrama a liar [ibid] It is not possible that Ali (ra) contradicted the Shariah and went to the extent of burning people. Remember Ali (ra) was one of the closest companions of Prophet, he could not have been possibly ignorant of the order by Prophet that it is forbidden to burn people alive. The Shia also reject this hadith. Shia scholar Sheikh Mansour Leghaei says: Ikrima; the narrator of the story, was one of the leaders of Khawarij who waged the battle of Nahrawan against Imam Ali (a.s). He has fabricated many hadiths and related them to Ibn Abbas. There are other hadiths on killing apostates too but they contradict each other, some say only that apostate is to be killed who “WAGES WAR ON ALLAH AND PROPHET” hence this proves that ruling was restricted to time of Prophet only and waging war on him. And some hadiths talk about high treason along with apostasy. This is why we should stick to Qur’an which is the only divine book for Muslims. Before anyone accuses me of being a Quranist then remember I do follow hadiths, but the primary Usool ul Hadith (principle of hadith) is that any hadith which contradicts Qur’an is to be rejected. The most dominant school of jurisprudence in Muslim world i.e. Hanafi school prescribes no death penalty for apostates but only for those who incite Hirabah (war) along with it, but not those who just change religion [See al-Mabsut 10/110 5 of Hanafi Imam al-Sarkashi. Also Imam Ibn al Hammam al-Hanafi in Sharh Fath al- Qadeer (15/388-9)]. The Hanafi opinion is based on Quran and Hadiths taken in totality hence both these noble sources do not prescribe death penalty for mere apostasy but only those apostates who incite war along with it. It is actually the Bible which categorically ordains death penalty for apostasy in many verses such as: Book of Leviticus states: “Anyone who blasphemes the name of the LORD is to be put to death. The entire assembly must stone them. Whether foreigner or native-born, when they blaspheme the Name they are to be put to death. [Leviticus 24:16]” Book of Deuteronomy states: If your very own brother, or your son or daughter, or the wife you love, or your closest friend secretly entices you, saying, "LET US GO AND WORSHIP OTHER GODS" do not yield to him or listen to him. Show him no pity. Do not spare him or shield him. "YOU MUST CERTAINLY PUT HIM TO DEATH" Your hand must be the first in putting him to death, and then the hands of all the people, "STONE HIM TO DEATH" because he tried to turn you away from the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. Then all Israel will hear and be afraid, and no one among you will do such an evil thing again. (Deuteronomy 13:6-11) There are many more passages. Remember Christians consider Jesus to be an eternal God, so all these laws were sanctioned by Jesus according to Christians. Also Jesus authenticated the Mosaic Law completely in Matthew 5:17-20. Also It states in Book of Timothy: All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, [2 Timothy 3:16] Hence all scripture is profitable for “DOCTRINE, REPROOF, AND INSTRUCTION” 6 Misconception # 23 (Islam prescribes death penalty for homosexuals) This is again a misconception. Qur’an does talk about divine punishment being sent to Sodom and Gomorrah, but nowhere does Qur’an order us to kill homosexuals. It is actually the Bible which asks to kill homosexuals and not Qur’an It states in book of Leviticus: If a man practices homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman, both men have committed a detestable act. They must both be put to death, for they are guilty of a capital offense. [Leviticus 20:13. NLT] Yes there is a hadith which is often used by Islamophobes, but that hadith is not only weak but also contradicts Qur’an and another authentic hadiths which prescribe no worldly punishment. Hence the hadith mentioning worldly punishment is to be rejected according to principles of hadith.

  • A Guide to Practical Irfan Stage 1
    A Guide to Practical Irfan Stage 1 (Based on the lessons delivered by Sh. Mansour Leghaei at Imam Husain Islamic Centre-Australia) What is Irfan and why should I study it? Irfan is a ‘gnostic’ discipline and study of how man can reach higher heights in the realm of spirituality within the domain of Islam. It is a systematic method of gaining the knowledge, skills and tools to build the ‘self’ in this world for the benefit of the Hereafter. Irfan is a study of how man can make better sense of the realities of this world and beyond, to capitalise on the abundant blessings poured down upon man in this world. This then awakens the student in a world where people are still asleep, to get up, prepare for the journey and begin the path as a traveller travelling towards the absolute Al-mighty Allah (swt). Urafa (those emersed greatly in this discipline) believe that there are certain obstacles in our life in this world that prevent one from fully realising and achieving their ultimate goals. By studying Irfan, one gains the vision to see these obstacles and the means to avoid them at the same time taking maximum advantage of what has been provided by Allah (swt) in this path. For example, pleasing an animal by feeding it for the sake of Allah (swt) the Lord of the Worlds would help untie problems and ease our journey. All in all, whatever we do, even by just breathing we are indebted to Allah (swt). So one must practise appreciation and gratitude for the infinite blessings bestowed on man and his environment which has been made subservient to him.

  • One of the Characteristics of the Prophet(S)
    Discourse on Ayat Al-Tat-heer Verse of Purification (33:33) Based on a lecture delivered by Sh. Mansour Leghaei Proving the Inerrancy of Ahlayl Bayt through logical reasoning and grammatical analysis of Arabic used in the Quran Document Specifications: Version 1.0 Last updated 31/01/2018 Author Sheikh Mansour Leghaei Author Contact Phone: (#61-2) 9558114 or Details Email: [email protected] Discourse on Ayaat Al –Tatheer (33:33) by Sheikh Mansour Leghaei © Page 1 of 14 Table of Contents Prelude The academic discourse on the Inerrancy (I’sma) of Ahlayl Bayt which is best described as ‘Divine Protection from Inerrancy’ with reference to Ayat Tathir has been made by Sheikh Mansour Leghaei at the Imam Husayn Islamic Centre (IHIC). This is a textual based transcript of the presentation by His Eminence for those whom where not able to attend on the day, and for any other person(s) whom are interested in this academic discussion. The focus of this discussion is on proving the Inerrancy and Status of Ahlul-Bait as mentioned in the Quran through logical reasoning, and grammatical analysis of the Arabic which has been used in Ayah 33:33. Introduction The portion of the Ayah under examination in this discussion with respects to the purity of Ahlayl Bayt has been revealed separately on separate occasions from the ayaat which came prior to and after this ayah in their present positioning within the Surah. In the previous and proceeding ayat Allah swt in the Quran deals with the wives of the Prophet (s) and in the portion of the ayah under analysis it deals with an exclusive group of people called Ahlayl Bayt whom have been given an unprecedented level of purity and status inerrancy in which they have been engulfed in divine protection.

  • Final Draft Emended
    MULTICULTURAL FUTURES: THE NEGOTIATION OF IDENTITY AMONGST SECOND GENERATION IRANIANS OF MUSLIM AND BAHA'I BACKGROUND IN SYDNEY, LONDON AND VANCOUVER by CAMERON McAULIFFE A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy School of Geosciences The University of Sydney NSW 2006, Australia July 2005 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I have many people to thank across three continents and four years for their interest, enthusiasm, and, ultimately, their time and effort, in helping me to complete this thesis. I apologise in advance to anyone I neglect to mention. It does not mean I failed to appreciate your help. An undertaking such as this relies on the goodwill of many. In each of the three cities I have had a great deal of support from the academic community. In Vancouver, I wish to thank Dan Heibert in the Department of Geography at UBC for agreeing to sign me on as an ‘exchange student’ after a cold call email, and then being so accommodating when I was there at UBC. Thanks must go to Claire Dwyer for opening her door to me and seeing to it that I had a desk amongst the postgrads in the Geography Department at UCL, despite my being only a visitor in the department. I also thank Claire for suggesting that I present my preliminary results in the UCL Geography Department’s Cultural and Historical Geography seminar series. Minelle Mahtani at UBC was also very supportive, listening to my wild ideas and helping me to fill in some of the theoretical holes. I thank all of my respondents for the trust you have placed in me to represent your stories, and for the passion which many of you displayed for the ideas that underscored this analysis.

  • The Kafka-Esque Case of Sheikh Mansour Leghaei: The
    2010 The Kafka-esque Case of Sheikh Mansour Leghaei 629 THE KAFKA-ESQUE CASE OF SHEIKH MANSOUR LEGHAEI: THE DENIAL OF THE INTERNATIONAL HUMAN RIGHT TO A FAIR HEARING IN NATIONAL SECURITY ASSESSMENTS AND MIGRATION PROCEEDINGS IN AUSTRALIA BEN SAUL* I INTRODUCTION In Franz Kafka’s novel The Trial, an ordinary man finds himself trapped inside the byzantine processes of a shadow justice system. When he asks what he has done wrong, the bureaucrats reply: ‘It’s not our job to tell you that.’1 When he goes to court, he and his lawyers are not allowed to see any of the evidence against him. His faceless accusers always remain unknown to him. Inevitably, in a system such as this – with the individual confused, disempowered, out- manoeuvred, and unable to oppose the State on fair terms – he is found guilty. Kafka’s story is a terrifying glimpse into a world which, on the surface, claims to be ruled by law, but in reality is one where the modern bureaucratic State exercises total control over the individual and extinguishes the individual’s right to be treated decently in favour of an unknown greater good. Kafka was writing about rising authoritarianism in early 20th century Europe, but he could well have been describing Australia’s current migration and security laws and their application to Dr Sheikh Mansour Leghaei. This article examines the near-total denial of fair hearing rights under Australian law to non-permanent resident non-citizens who are suspected by the authorities of being a national security risk to Australia.

If you would be a real seeker of truth, You must at least once in your life doubt, As far as possible, all things. “Discours de la Méthode”; Descartes. 1637. The Sleepwalkers Khalid Gibran, the well known Lebanese poet and artist of the early twentieth century, says in prose poetry named ‘The Sleepwalkers': “ In the town where I was born lived a woman and her daughter, who walked in their sleep. One night, while silence enfolded the world, the woman and her daughter, walking, yet asleep, met in their mist-veiled garden. And the mother spoke, and she said: "At last, at last, my enemy! You by whom my youth was destroyed -- who have built up your life upon the ruins of mine! Would I could kill you!" And the daughter spoke, and she said: "O hateful woman, selfish and old! Who stand between my freer self and me! Who would have my life an echo of your own faded life! Would you were dead!" At that moment a cock crew, and both women awoke. The mother said gently, "Is that you, darling?" And the daughter answered gently, "Yes, dear.”! How can we really prove we are not sleepwalkers in our so-called life? Let me share a personal experience with you.

  • A Short Treatise on the Guardianship of the Jurist
    A Short Treatise on The Guardianship of the Jurist Author(s): Mansour Leghaei [1] In this book, the author discusses in detail the concept of the Guardianship of the Jurist from an historical perspective, analysing the textual authority for its implementation while clarifying its underlying principles. This text also addresses some of the commonly asked questions regarding this concept. Get PDF [2] Get EPUB [3] Get MOBI [4] Topic Tags: Guardianship [5] Jurist [6] Wilayah [7] Person Tags: Sayyid Ruhullah Musawi Khomeini [8] Preliminary Discussions 1)The Definition of ‘Authority’ (walaya) Al-Raghib; the famous Arabic philologist says in his al-Mufradat: “ ‘wala’ and ‘tawalli’ is when two or more things occur side by side without anything external to them being between them. This is used metaphorically to indicate spatial, familial, religious, personal, political or ideological proximity. ‘Wilaya’ is aiding or backing, while ‘walaya’ is when one takes charge of an affair. It has been said that ‘wilaya’ and ‘walaya’ are like ‘dilala’ and ‘dalala’ (i.e. there is no difference between their meanings), but the correct opinion is that ‘walaya’ indicates taking charge of an affair. ‘Wali’ and ‘mawla’ therefore are used in relation to this meaning”1 According to this, the guardian (wali) of an orphan is the one who has charge of his affair, and a king may be described as: ‘the guardian of the affairs’. Thus, the permission to act is part of the meaning of the word. Therefore the claim of some who interpret ‘wilaya’ to mean only ‘love’ is not something that can be supported linguistically.
