Some Russian officials have said that yet another famous book on
Islam, which each Muslim observing precepts has, is now among the
banned. It is a famous historical work by Abdurrahman Raafat al-Bashi
"Pictures From Lives of Disciples of Messenger of Allah (peace and
blessings be upon him)".
Russian authorities issued the number 151 to this book in the list
of the so-called "extremist literature". Al-Bashi's book was
published in Moscow in 2001.
Source of the popular Caucasus Muslim Center, Kavkaz reported that
cruel treatment of Russian Muslims is continuing in Russian
concentration camp IK-1, town of Nadvoitsy, Segezhsky District of
the Republic of Karelia. The wardens are not only "pressing" the
Muslims, but they are also prohibiting the inmates of the Russian
concentration camp from praying.
Kavkaz Center's source reported that the ringleader of the
concentration camp, Fedotov, personally controls the process of
harassment and tortures of Mulsims. Fedotov gets especially mad when
Muslim inmates of the Russian concentration camp do not give up
their attempts to conduct the Namaz (prayer), even though praying
was declared as "violation of the order" in the IK-1 concentration
camp.
Prosecutor's Office confirms, ''There is no god but Allah''
Russian media reported that Prosecutor's Office of the Krasnoyarsk
Province in Siberia has conducted an examination and did not
discover any violations of the law of the Russian Federation in
placing the verse from the Koran "There is no god but Allah" on the
wall of the Krasnoyarsk mosque.
Official from the Prosecutor's Office said, "Examination of legality
of placing this particular quote has been completed. The
Prosecutor's Office has not discovered any illegitimate actions that
would violate the acting legislation by displaying a quote from the
Koran."
The sign with the words "There is no god but Allah" was placed on
the wall of the mosque in early June and was taken off on the demand
from the Prosecutor's Office. The demand was motivated by the fact
that it allegedly was displeasing to the local residents.
Thus, the local Prosecutor's Office has not discovered any
violations of the Russian constitution in the statement "There is no
god but Allah".
In this connection, the same Prosecutor's Office may apparently
discover a violation of Russia's constitution in other verses of the
Koran, such as the order of Allah to fight against the infidels
until the temptation in religion disappears. Or in the order of the
Most High that anybody who judge not by the laws of Allah are
transgressors and criminals. And this would be a direct call to
"extremist activities", which is punishable by the laws of the
Russian Federation.
So, the Russian Prosecutor's Office has all "legal" grounds to
accuse God of "extremist calls" in other "articles" of the Koran. |
