Re: Response to Kevin Baldeosingh's Column entitled "Hijabonomics Explained"

In Response to Kevin Baldeosingh's Commentary in the Guardian Newspaper which was published on Sunday 27th May 2017 Entitled "Hijabonomics Explained" in which he suggested "Why then does she simply not remove her Hijab so she can get the job" Waajihatul Islaamiyyah (The Islamic Front) is saying this is an attack on the dignity and modesty of all women. What Kevin is suggesting is that all women should strip themselves and compromise their true worth in order to get a job in this country. This is synonymous with prostitution.

Baldeosingh has crossed the line to suggest such, and enough is enough! We are calling for his immediate dismissal. If this is not done Waajihatul Islaamiyyah (The Islamic Front) together with the entire Muslim Community of Trinidad and Tobago will have no reason but to believe Guardian Media Limited and its' editors views the Muslim Community of Trinidad and Tobago with scorn and disgust.

It appears as though Guardian Media Limited its' editors and Kevin Baldeosingh takes great pleasure in attacking and ridiculing the Muslim community during their most auspicious occasions; the last attempt was on Eid-ul-Fitr 2015 and this present Ramadhaan. We are not going to tolerate this blatant disregard of religious freedom especially in this holy month of Ramadhaan.

Our National Anthem which is a symbol of Our nation's sovereignty boasts of "Where every creed and race shall find an equal place". The Hijab also is a symbol; a symbol of God's sovereignty on Earth. We will be damned to allow anyone to suggest the removal of or attack our symbols.  

The Devil is chained during the Month of Ramadhaan but there are human manifestations of his handiwork. This commentary is laced with a poisonous blend of bigotry and racial discrimination to say the least. This commentary was done in bad taste, lacks substance and void of any positive contribution. It is a venomous attack on identity and Culture. 

The Guardian Media Limited definitely has to do something about this plague that has infected the integrity of this media House. I'm also calling  for a full retraction of this commentary and is further calling on and challenging the Guardian Media Ltd to apologise in like manner to sister Aisha Sabur, to all Muslims and to all women of Trinidad and Tobago.

Response to Donald Trump's Speech to the Muslim World

Re: Response to Donald Trump's Speech to the Muslim World.

On the heals of Ramadan Donald Trump delivers to the Muslim world what can only be described as the greatest insult to Muslims and a slap in the face of faith whilst standing on our sacred ground. Clearly it's a last desperate attempt by Shaitan; before he is chained to further divide and separate the Muslim world.

It's a shameful effort to fuel hate, animosity and discrimination within the hearts of Muslims. A pathetic business presentation at best to arouse the hearts, in an attempt to satisfy the addictions to this world and all its faults glitter; selling us a product we don't need.

This is what was actually being said for those who are deaf dumb and blind: "let's forget and not pay attention to the millions of people we -America, Israel, Britain and their coalitions - have slaughtered and the millions of lives families and homes we have destroyed. Instead let's remember and pay attention to what you the Muslims have done and the destruction you Muslims have caused in defending your lives and your homes and your lands. Let us agree that total submission to Allah - Quran and the Sunnah - should be labelled as terrorism, radicalism and fundamentalism. Let us agree that democracy should be our preferred System of governance. Let us all unanimously agree the Caliphate and or Islamic governance is a backward and decadent form of governance and that all those Muslims who call for it and is working towards achieving it should be banished, exiled or put to death." That my dear brothers and sisters is the exact interpretation of the Devil's aid and trusted Friend - Donald Trump's - speech to the Muslim world.

My dear brothers and sisters let's not be fooled by the sumber charismatic speech of this vile and despotic creature. Their main objective is to strip away from us our dignity, our identity and our culture. When this happens they will completely destroy us and devour us while we lay helpless.

May Allah protect us and save us from ruin. Aameen.
