MediaGuardian ^ | 10/18/06 | Stephen Brook

The Daily Star last night pulled a page that mocked Muslim law by turning the tabloid into the "Daily Fatwa" following a newsroom revolt.

Management acted after the Daily Star's National Union of Journalists' chapel held a stop work meeting that produced a resolution condemning the page.

The page included a "Page 3 burqa babes special" showing a woman in a niqab, as part of a feature billed as "How your favourite paper would look under Muslim law".

The page also contained a blank editorial stamped with the words "censored" and "Allah is great" ...

"Page 3 burqa babes special"

That's hilarious -- presuming you do know what The Sun's Page 3 is all about.

WARNING

Do not peek if you are looking for burqa babes or are easily offended.

I know what all these words mean, but I cannot for the life of me make sense of this alleged sentence.

Thanks for the video link. The moonbats will defend Islam out of fear of jihadists, moral relativism, and hatred for Bush.

Where's the video showing how Moses was a genocidal child murderer?

NEVER MIND, WE'VE STILL GOT THE REAL THING:

Ask-Imam.com > Science of Evidence (Usoo ul-Fiqh) > Question 5208 from United States




Please quote the Qur’anic Ayats or Hadiths with respect to the following established facts: 1. The Earth revolves round the Sun. 2. The Earth rotates about it’s axis.


Answer 5208 2002-03-21


In the Middle Ages, most people believed that the sun moved while the moon
was standstill. But according to the verse of the Glorious Holy Quran given
to Prophet Muhammad (Peace be Upon Him) by the one and only Supreme Being,
Allah, both the sun and the moon have their orbit and the sun is in the
center of the universe where the planets transverse around. These verses
revealed 1400 years ago before major scientists around the world established
this fact.

Here are some of the verses given in the Quran:

1.) "Allah is He Who raised the heavens without any pillars that ye can see;
then He established Himself on the Throne; He has subjected the sun and the
moon! Each one runs (its course) for a term appointed. He doth regulate all
affairs, explaining the signs in detail, that ye may believe with certainty
in the meeting with your Lord. Surah 13 (Ar-Ra'd), Verse 2.

2.) "He(Allah) created the heavens and the earth in true (proportions): He
makes the Night overlap the Day, and the Day overlap the Night: He has
subjected the sun and the moon (to His law): each one follows a course for a
time appointed. Is not He the Exalted in Power - He Who forgives again and
again?" Surah 39 (Az-Zumar), Verse 5.

3.) "And the Moon,- We have measured for her stations (to traverse) till she
returns like the old (and withered) lower part of a date-stalk." Surah 36
(Yaseen), Verse 39.

4.) "It is not permitted to the Sun to catch up the Moon, nor can the Night
outstrip the Day: each (just) swims along in (its own) orbit (according to
Law)." "Surah 36 (Yaseen), Verse 40.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

Mufti Ebrahim Desai
