Q&A: America's Impact on India's Policy to Confront China

Question: On 07/04/2014 the general election in India was launched, which will continue until 12/05/2014 and the results will be declared on 16/05/2014. The elections are contested by two large political blocs; the American-linked Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) with its alliance, and the pro-British, the Congress Party, which since its return to power through winning the 2004 election, showed a sluggish relationship with the United States because of its association with Britain, and showed fear in confronting China... The question is what is the impact of America on India's policy in confronting China? And what is the relationship of that with the American Asia-Pacific Strategy and its motivation to Australia and Japan to enter into this confrontation? Will this policy be greatly affected by the type of the ruling party in India, whether the BJP or the Congress Party wins? Does India have the ability to deal with China? How is the balance of power between China and India? A

Q&A: The Western Sahara Issue

Question: On 29/4/2014, the Security Council issued Resolution No. 2152 regarding the issue of the Western Sahara, the decision was in light of the report of the Secretary-General on 10/04/2014. Note that the report of the Secretary-General came following initiatives by Ross, the Personal Envoy of the Secretary-General, during his visits to North Africa on 28/01/2014, and after visits of King Mohammed VI, which began on 18/2/2014 to Africa, especially to countries loyal to France, the visits were friendly with multiple agreements signed. The recommendations of the Secretary-General's report stated: "The extension of the Mission until 30/04/2015." The question is: Why is the Sahara issue shifted from one resolution to another without a solution for nearly forty years since its independence from Spain on 26/02/1976? Is there a relationship between visits made by Ross and the King, and the UN Security Council Resolution 2152? How do we explain the king's visit,

Ain Al-Hilweh Fighting: Prohibited Blood in the Sacred Month!

O our honourable people in Ain Al-Hilwa... O Muslim Youth who are protective of their Deen We call you, rather we are reaching out to the Deen, dignity, and protection in you, for your blood and the blood of the Muslims which is shed over the land in Ain Al-Hilwa. We implore you for the sake of Allah to listen, and open your hearts before your ears... We call those amongst you who carried out the shootings which injured, killed, and terrorised people in Rajab, the sacred month of Allah, which is sanctified even by the Arabs in their Days of Ignorance, so what about you, the Muslims!! Narrated in Bukhari and Muslim that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said in his Farewell pilgrimage: إن الزمان قد استدار كهيئته يوم خلق الله السماوات والأرض، السنة اثنا عشر شهرًا منها أربعة حرم، ثلاثة متواليات: ذو القعدة، وذو الحجة، والمحرم، ورجب مُضر الذي بين جمادى وشعبان "O People! Time has gone back to how it was at the time Allah created the Heavens and the Earth. A year has twelve

Nine Years Later, America offers false sympathy over Andijan Massacre in Uzbekistan!

The American Embassy in Uzbekistan issued a statement on the ninth anniversary of the heinous massacre perpetrated in May 2005 CE by the tyrant of Uzbekistan and his henchmen in the city of Andijan. The security forces at the time killed protestors who came out to express their rejection of the catastrophic living conditions and the policies of the oppressive regime against them. The statement reads:  "Today, the United States remembers the events that took place in Andijan nine years ago and extends heartfelt sympathy to all who suffered during and as a result of that tragedy. As a principle the United States encourages reconciliation, accountability and respect for the rights of all citizens as the best means to ensure future peace and stability". With these empty words, the United States government wants to dance on the wounds and the pain of our Ummah in Uzbekistan. It sheds crocodile tears for the victims of the criminal Karimov, yet it is not ashamed to launch

Q&A: Sterilization

Question: Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullah Wa Barakatuhu Our respected Sheikh, I have a medical question that is in need of a very urgent reply, I am a doctor working in a Gynecology Obstetrics Hospital in which Cesarean section operations are performed if it is necessary for the woman, as well as if the life of the fetus or her life were at risk. There are some pregnant women who suffer from illnesses that make pregnancy difficult for them, and experience a very difficult circumstances, compelling them to not to get pregnant or to space between childbearing periods of at least 3-4 years, so she is forced to use contraception methods. But for some women, the contraception methods do not work with them for the required spacing, which threatens her life because she is exposed to performing many closely-spaced Cesarean sections. Some women suffer from cartilage in the vertebrae, and others incur severe hemorrhage, hence doctors resort to sealing the fallopian tubes permanently s
