I shared it everywhere. I could not sign the petition but I hope someone signed it because of me.

Nu'man b. Bashir reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying:
The similitude of believers in regard to mutual love, affection, fellow-feeling is that of one body; when any limb of it aches, the whole body aches, because of sleeplessness and fever.
(Sahih Muslim: Book #032, Hadith #6258)

I got blocked for two days for misusing the feature of posting in groups on fb. Maybe I shared it a lot :/.

I want to sign in but I am not sure as it requires my home address I have a big problem with that and they may point me as their next terror suspect lol. If I put the wrong address in I doubt they will count it. so a problem there...

It's just a petition to get the MPs to debate the issue... watch the vid Br Uthman posted. If they want to arrest someone, they will. Signing this petition won't make any difference. There are already 55,000 signatures. That's a lot of people to 'suspect'... all it's asking for is a fair trial in the UK.
 
cant sign
Aisha said:
I couldn't believe what I was hearing the other day- someone said she didn't think it wouldn't make any difference so she wouldn't bother signing. Also, there was 'no point' making dua as it wouldn't be accepted 'because soo many people make dua and it doesn't make a difference. When did some of us turn so... cold?

so sad.. its not our action but intention which makes the difference not for others but for ourselves

Yes, there is brother. Firstly, if you have any friends, relatives or acquaintes who are UK citizens then please please contact them and tell them to sign and share the petition with others. Secondly, let none of us trivialise the power of Du'a, for it is more powerful than anything else we could possibly do to help the brother.

"And your Lord says, "Call upon Me; I will respond to you." [Qur'an - 40:60]

I don't have any family in the UK, but I will try to spread this around, insha-Allah. I will also make du'a, insha-Allah.

:hmm:It is not helping..I have posted this on Fb.Can't sign it.
 
Re: Petition for babar Ahmad- IMPORTANT!!

Salahudeen said:
me too, it's sad how the world just carries on and forgets, how people can just carry on living their normal life going about their day to day business while cases such as hers and Babar Ahmed exist, I guess people feel powerless to make a diff, the common thought is "what can I do, I have no power to help"

After reading her story I was feeling
Why I read that If can't do anything for her.
 
I just want to remind everyone who isn't in the uk to try and sign the petition anyway. I signed it out of the country too and It went through.

FORWARDED MESSAGE SUPPORTED BY TAYYIBUN INSTITUTE:
*
Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullah,
*
Dearest Brothers and Sisters,
*
Sometimes we receive messages about something and we don’t bother to read it to the end. This is one message that NEEDS to be read to the very end. It not only needs to be read, it needs YOU the reader to place yourself in the shoes of someone. It NEEDS you to ‘live’ his reality, to smell what he smells, to touch what he is able to touch, to see what he sees and to imagine his future in the way that he does.
*
Are you ready to completely switch off from what is surrounding you and give your complete attention and heart for JUST 3 MINUTES! For the sake of Allah please do, as it could seriously be a source of ajr (reward) for you and could make the difference to someone’s life.
*
Before you think, this message is asking for money – IT ISN’T! I simply want you to be this person for 3 minutes in your life…
*
You’re happily married, you have a wonderful close family mashaAllah. You have a good job and you love your Islam. Life is good Alhamdulillah and you are one of those few individuals who goes out of your way to help others purely to seek the pleasure of Allah. You sleep soundly, you have the choice to eat what tickles your fancy and you can choose whether you bask in the beautiful sunshine or you spend a day listening to a wonderful lecture. You are free – you can choose – life is sweet.
*
In a matter of seconds, your happy life is ripped away from you. Now your reality is very different: you have lost your spouse, you can no longer enjoy being with your family, your heart aches and longs to be close to your loved ones – but it is impossible. And so you only rely on your dreams at night to bring back what you yearn to be your reality: spending Eid together, walking through the park, praying with fellow Muslims, enjoying a bite to eat with friends.
*
This is the reality of one individual.
*
You know what’s really sad about this situation? This individual spent his life trying to help others. Those who knew him had such respect for him as he was one who tried to ease the pain and difficulty of others. The time has come where the Muslim Community can NOW help him to turn his dreams of freedom into a reality.
*
Yes, I’m talking about Babar Ahmad who has been imprisoned without trial for over 7 years and I want you to read til the end of this email as there is a message from him in the last few days which cut deep as I’m sure it will make you cry in both admiration for his strength and pain at his situation.
*
Thousands of emails have gone around about him, asking people to sign the petition. Sadly with only one month to go, there have only been 40,000 signatures. 60,000 more are needed.
It saddens me that with only few weeks to go, we the Muslim Community have not exerted enough effort to reach the number of signatures needed which will enable Babar Ahmed’s case to be discussed by parliament.
*
What faces Babar Ahmad should he be extradited to the US?
· He will face the rest of his natural life in a Supermax Prison
· He will be in solitary confinement for 22-23 hours per day
· Regular body searches
· Regular ‘extractions’ where fully kitted officers in riot gear ‘remove’ the prisoner by surprise and do a cell search which often results in serious physical damage to the prisoner
· One call per month to a family or friend
*
As one senior Supermax officer put it, “Do we have an obligation to take care of them? Yes. But do I have an obligation to provide him touching, feeling contact with another human being? I would say no. He has earned his way to and he’s earned just the opposite. He’s earned the need for me to keep him apart from other people.”
*
Babar Ahmad has not done anything to deserve being sent to such a place and you can be a part of the campaign to have him tried here in the United Kingdom.
*
I have faith in the Muslim Community as I have seen wonderful things happen in such a short space of time. We can do this and we owe it to our brother to support him in this cause.
*
So, what can we do:
· Sign the petition and don’t forget to activate the link that is sent to your email address.
· Get every member in your household and extended family to sign it.
· If everyone could try to get at least 10 others to sign than we could actually reach the target of 100,000 signatures by 10th NOVEMBER 2011.
· Spread the word, forward this email on.
*
We all have excuses, but I wonder what excuse we will give to Allah when He (Swt) asks what we did to help a brother on our very own doorstep. What excuse will you give for not taking 2 minutes out of your time to simply sign a government e-petition.
*
I try to imagine how Babar must be feeling right now, only few weeks left and only 40,000 signatures from his brothers and sisters. I would have lost much hope but this is what he said to one of his sisters recently:
‘Whatever you do, never give up, because the only thing worse than failure is the failure to try’. Babar Ahmad, October 2011
*
The question is not whether you should sign the petition, the question is what is stopping you from doing it and from getting others to do it??? Don’t be a Muslim who merely shows his Islam though speech. ACT TODAY.
Revisit the above steps as to how you can help and before Shaytaan makes you think about something else – SIGN, SPREAD THE WORD AND GET THOSE ADDITIONAL 10 PEOPLE TO SIGN TOO.
*
May Allah reward you for reading this far. You never know what something like this could do for an individual’s life and future. More importantly – what it could do for your akhirah when everyone will do anything to go back to the life of this world to do the best deed they could do…

Wasalaamu Alaikum Warahmatullah
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And just a few things to clarify in case you’re thinking:
*
1) I am worried about giving my name and address to this*Addresses and email addresses are not published or accessible by any member of the public, 40,000 people have already signed this petition. Why would the Government spend time and resources chasing up on each of those 40,000 people in the middle of a recession when they have so many bigger issues to worry about-just because they signed a recognised and legitimate Government petition, acting within the law?
*
2) What difference would it make anyway? What's the point?
It took one woman to cause a revolution in Egypt, billions of tiny drops of water come together to form the ocean...there is always a point-even if it is just the fact that we can say to Allah (SWT) on the Day of Judgement "We saw a brother in need, we did this to try to help him."
*
3) We don't want to ask this "non-Muslim" or non-shariah government for anything, we should just make dua and not do this petition.*That would have been fair enough if this was an Islamic state. The bottom line is that there is no third option-Trial in UK or trial in the USA. No one has asked Babar what kind of trial he would like. Once you are arrested and locked up, you are bound by the laws of the authorities that locked you up in the first place-whether you like it or not.
*
4) I want to sign it but I have had so much on, I have been too busy to get to it.
This petition expires on 10th November 2011-then that opportunity to sign will be over.Imagine the feeling of sadness and regret if we miss out our target of 100,000 by just a small handful of signatures-that could have been if people didn't procrastinate. Or worse still, seeing the news that Babar Ahmad has been put on a plane to the US.

Sweet ha? Al7mdlilah now that U.S people can do it there's no reason not to have more signatures pls. Insha'Allah Babar will be freed like the YouTube clip said Babar is your brother! So do this for him!!!
 
Powerful!:

Three men were competing to see who was the most cruel. The first one attacked a man beating him till he was bleeding and couldn't stand. The second man saw him in this state and stamped on his hands and face over and over. He turned to the others and said, "No one can be worse than me." The third one said, "No, I'm the worst one because I just stood by and watched. This man is my brother."

The victim is Babar Ahmad.
The first man is the police.
The second is the Justice System
The third is the Muslims of Britain who did nothing.

SIGN THE PETITION www.letsgetjustice.com
We only have less than 2 weeks left. Do it today & tell others- this is important- think of his family!

Put Babar Ahmad on trial in the UK - e-petitions
epetitions.direct.gov.uk
Babar Ahmad is a British Citizen who has been detained in the UK for 7 years without trial fighting extradition to the USA under the controversial no-evidence-required Extradition Act 2003. In June 2011, the Houses of Parliament, Joint Committee on Human Rights urged the UK government to change...
 
I signed it 6 times on behalf of my family, so every 1 else do the same if you can, I just put their details in and told them to click the link in their email.
 
Surely you can conceive bending the rules a little to save someones life? Neither the U.S nor UK are playing by any rules here when they hold people without trial and extradite them to Gitmo or God knows where because they feel like it.. Every signature they get is still of a human being standing against crimes against humanity! Furthermore the UK is an irrelevant little island I just don't think it has 100,000 Muslims frankly or at least that many practicing as evinced by the fact that we're two weeks away from closure and about 40,000 signatures behind!

My two cents

As-Salāmu `Alaykum (السلام عليكم):

Ukhti ßlµêßêll:

the Jahiliyyah جاهلية system is designed to favor those who established it.
They realize the odds are almost insurmountable. If the Western powers
want a person they will establish a way to get them.

How can the practicing Muslims support efforts for retaining a defense Attorney
for this brother?

Are people relying upon the system that is holding him captive to release him?

Continue with your two cents......

Good work sis. Spread the word so we can get all of the required signitures so we can have the brothers case debated in the house of lords. Disregard those who say otherwise.
 
I've signed the petition but a petition is nothing against the help of Allah subhana wa ta 'ala. We need to make efforts in our duaas. Do we remember Barbar Ahmed once we've walked away from the PC? Do we pray for him like we'd do if he was our blood brother? Nothing can withstand the Power and Might of Allah. So please, lets pray our hearts out for this brother and others like him and have more hope of His help instead of the kuffars so-called justice system.

No akhi, we aren't relying on them. La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah. The petition is a legal formality required to keep Barbar Ahmed in the UK. We rely on Allah's help alone. Iyyaka na'budu wa iyya ka nasta'een. We need Allah's help even if the petition is successful because no system is fair & just except Allah's.
