Malaysia's Muslim men are suffering sleepless nights and cannot pray properly because their thoughts are distracted by a growing number of women who wear sexy clothes in public, a prominent cleric said.
Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat, the spiritual leader of the opposition Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party, said he wanted to speak about the "emotional abuse" that men face because it is seldom discussed, the party reported on its Web site Wednesday.
"We always (hear about) the abuse of children and wives in households, which is easily perceived by the eye, but the emotional abuse of men cannot be seen," Nik Abdul Aziz said. "Our prayers become unfocused and our sleep is often disturbed."
Nik Abdul Aziz has made controversial comments about women in the past, including that women should stop wearing lipstick and perfume to lower the risk of being raped. Women's groups have slammed his statements, saying Islam teaches both men and women to be responsible for modesty. They say comments like these encourage rapes because it puts the onus on women.

Turf war among Maldive Mullahs
"No day goes by without the mention of Islam in our media and in the social interactions these days. This is an good opportunity for us to enlighten ourselves and process the information we already have through an active process of reasoning rather than passively assigning ourselves to a faith.
A war of words has recently taken place over comments made by Dr. Afrasheen. Sadly, the opposing views put forward by Adhaalath and Dr Abdul Sathar (another Phd at Faculty of Sharia and Law) is based on character assignation and is based on typical fiery rhetoric rather than refuting the evidence of Dr. Afrasheen. The inevitable conclusion that I can make out of this commotion is that a turf war has begun among religious scholars in the Maldives. Every one of these Sheiks wants to standout from the crowd and claim he knows God’s secrets!

Courage required to face the facts
Is the bomb explosion that injured 12 tourists a new chapter in an old war?
When the Muslims arrived in Maldives, the people were Hindhu/Buddhist and had been for more than a thousand years. The islands were dotted with Buddhist temples and considered sacred territory by the Vedic people of the region. Ibn Batuta, the most infamous of the Muslim Arab colonizers, describes how the Maldives were peaceful and free from attack.
Before the Muslim Arabs could bundle up the women in burkhas and teach true Islam to the island people, the Portuguese found the ocean route to this ocean. The new invaders drove out the Arabs, but the ideology of Islam had gained a foothold. The imposition of the ideology was now carried out by surrogates. At times as in the case of Ibn Batuta they were traveling Arabs and at other times they were men who had traveled to Arabia and North Africa.
People who are going around claiming Maldivians have always been a hospitable people who have welcomed visitors to these islands may be referring to another peaceful time before the arrival of Islam that is mentioned by Ibn Batuta.
Good intentions are not enough. We must examine the truth. This is not the first attack on foreigners. The people on the ship that carried the Kaanzee Kamanaa were killed. Are we forgetting that the Frenchman Pyrard's shipmates were left to die of starvation?
Historical records such as the Loamaafaanu copper plate engravings clearly show that the bloodiest chapter in the history of the people of these islands came with the arrival of Islam. People were driven out of the islands where they once lived unafraid of attack. Men underwent forced circumcision, and women suffered genital mutilation. The Buddhist monks and those who did not accept Islam were beheaded in the biggest bloodbath in the history of the islands.
In contrast to what is continuously expressed and taught, Islam arrived in Maldives not peacefully. To clearly understand what happened in Maldives on the arrival of Islam, one has also to read the records of Muslim atrocities in India and beyond. The genocide of the Hindu-Buddhist people on the Indian sub-continent and South Asia at the hands of the Muslim invaders is still the biggest killing spree in all human history. Islam gained a foothold on the people of these islands through violence and terror.
To find a peaceful solution to the problem, what is required first is intellectual honesty. We must stop reciting and repeating what is clearly not true. A good starting point would be to admit that our people did not convert peacefully but were murdered and terrorized into submission.

Nigeria: Nine Christians murdered over cartoon drawn by a Muslim in Bangladesh
"The information given was that they saw a cartoon on the internet and they discovered that this cartoon was drawn by a 20-year-old Muslim boy from Bangladesh and they decided to visit their anger on innocent Christians and their churches.
"I have been told that nine people including a youth corper are confirmed dead and several others injured while the local government in a desperate attempt to cover the dastardly act pretended to be taking the victims to the hospital while in reality they sent some of the victims to Bauchi and some other places around so that people will not go there and see the number of destitutes or refugees caused by this incident.
"That is the information available, so far. What we have done is to ensure that the vice president is informed," he alleged.
He said Christians and their leaders were getting worried because both the Christian leaders and Muslims had been holding series of meetings within and outside the Nigerian Inter Religious Council (NIREC) to see how to bring about peaceful coexistence between followers of the two religions. Salifu regretted, however, that "the more we continue to meet with Muslim leaders the more some of these people attack our people.

The Maldives Terrorism Industry : Safari-Suit Mullahs
When these islamic "scholars" from Al-azhar came to Male', they brought Muslim Brotherhood with them. Maldivians became al-akh with Al-akh Yasser, Al-akh Saddam, Al-Akh Gaddhaafee and other Arabs. Maldives became partners in terrorism. soon the yacht Nabila belonging to world famous convicted arms dealer al-Akh Adnan Kashoggi was anchored in Male' Harbor. Al-Akh Yasser began operating Air Maldives.
To build the Maldives Terrorism as a self-sustaining and viable industry, Mauhadhu and Arabiyya schools were started. Lengthy double periods of Islam were started in all schools. The man in charge of this operation was Al-akh Zahir Hussein Al-Azhary.
Al-Akh Mau'moon carefully programmed the radio and tv to teach the people true Islam (or Mohammedan Terror). People were now spoon fed terrorism in their living rooms and thru the airwaves. Al-Akh Fathullah ensured that Maldives followed an anti-western foreign policy. Maldivians were not friends with the west anymore. We would stand by our Muslim Arab Akh. We were ready to fight the jihad alongside Al-akh Yasser to "liberate' al-Quds.
These mullahs would discard their safari-suits for Savile Row suits. But they laid the foundation to a self-sustaining Terorism Industry.

The Maldives Terrorism Industry
If anyone deserves to be called the Father of Maldives Terrorism, it is none other that Maumoon.
When he arrived in Maledives he started off by giving fatwas. Remember the "vikkaameehekey boameehekey evvaru" fatwa. Ibrahim Nasir clearly saw the danger and was alarmed enough to banish Maumoon for trying to foster terror. Gayoom and his two henchmen Zahir Hussein and Fath-hulla Jameel soon drove out Ibrahim Nasir with support and weapons from some of the most infamous terrorist - Yasser Arafat, Saddam Hussein Gaddafee and other Muslim Arabs. Soon this gang assembled the foundation that has now let to this bomb attack on foreigners in Male'.
When the mullah in the safari-suit took power, Maldives was forging ahead to try and march in time with the changing world. And they were succeeding. The English school system was enabling these remote islanders to travel to all parts of the world to study.Doctors, engineers, teachers were returning to take the country forward. But soon things were about to take a turn - towards Arabia and terror.
When Al-akh Yasser Arafat kissed Maumoons big mouth with his large quivering lips, the Maldivian Muslims shuddered in delight. It was almost as if they had been delivered into the presence of Allah himself. As the madhaha goes...arabinge maai kamaaey

A suicide bomber killed 28 Afghan troops and two civilians on Saturday in an attack on an army bus in Kabul, the Afghan president said.
The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack, the deadliest in the Afghan capital since the hard-line Islamist movement was ousted from power for harbouring al Qaeda leaders following the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States.
A suicide bomber dressed in army uniform got on the bus carrying Afghan National Army personnel to work, the Defence Ministry said. The blast split the bus into two and shattered shop windows in a central district of the capital.

"Some unidentified militants blew up the historic statue of Buddha in Jihan Abad area of Swat district on Saturday.
Talking to The News, Muhammad Aqleem, deputy curator of Swat Museum, said some unidentified militants had exploded the 7th century historic statue of Buddha in Jihan Abad area of district Swat on Saturday night. "This is second attack on the 7th century statue of Buddha. The fresh attack caused irreparable loss to its head and also damaged its shoulders."
The curator maintained that the statue belonged to 7th century A.D, and it was the most complete and inspiring symbol of Gandahara art. After the historic statues of Bamyan in Afghanistan, which were destroyed by the Taliban, the swat statue was the sole example of Buddhist cultural heritage.
"It was seven meters tall and 20 feet high from the land, showing Buddha in the condition of meditation. I don't know what they want to achieve by such actions," he added. Aqleem said he had reported the incident to the local police but he did not think that the police would be able to protect Buddhist cultural sites in swat as they themselves were the victims of terrorist attacks."
