Gosh... she speaks in the third person when she refers to what Bangladesh has done with the Rohingya... instead of saying "we" she says "them"... she takes no responsibilty for her actions... absolute scapegoat.

Where are the Muslims? Our brothers and sisters in Burma and being slaughtered!




What can we do?


Almighty Allah says: "The Believers are but a single Brotherhood." [Al-Hujurat 49:10]

The Prophet (Salallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said:

They do not do injustice to others nor do they tolerate any injustice to themselves. In their love and concern for each other, all members of this Brotherhood are one body: when any part of the body suffers, the whole body feels the pain. [Sahih Muslim]

"A Muslim is the brother of another Muslim. He does not oppress him, nor does he leave him at the mercy of others." [Sahih Muslim].


So let us not leave our brothers and sisters in the time they need us the most. They are a part of us like we are a part of them for we are one body and they are in much pain therefore everyone one of us should also be in PAIN!

So let us create as much awareness as possible of the plight of these people. We can do this by writing letters to local and national government, protesting, signing petitions, giving in charity and making much Dua.


Give what you can to our brothers and sisters in dire and desperate need

Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said "No wealth (of a servant of Allah) is decreased because of charity." [Al-Tirmidhi, Hadith No. 2247]


So let us give knowing that our wealth will NEVER decrease but that Allah will increase it:

Abu Hurayrah (RA) reported the Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) as saying that Allah, the Most Blessed and High, said: O son of Adam, I will spend on you. The right hand of Allah is full and overflowing and nothing would diminish it, by overspending day and night. [Sahih Muslim]


100% of donations will get to those who need it, not a penny towards administration costs:


Ummah Welfare Trust: Emergency Burma Appeal

http://www.uwt.org/site/appeal.asp?id=757


Or if you are not from the Uk then give what you can to any charity whether locally or nationally who are raising money for the Rohingya Burmese.


Let us remember ALL of our brothers who are going through oppression and in our Dua's.

The contrast of a hypocrite:



Dhaka bans NGOs from helping Rohingya

Three foreign aid groups barred from helping refugees fleeing violence in Myanmar, saying their work encourages influx.



Bangladesh has ordered three international charities to stop providing aid to Rohingya refugees crossing the border from Myanmar where they have fled persecution and violence.

Local administrator Joynul Bari said on Thursday that France's Doctors without Borders (MSF), Action Against Hunger (ACF) and Britain's Muslim Aid UK have been told to suspend their services in the Cox's Bazaar district bordering Myanmar.

"The charities have been providing aid to tens of thousands of undocumented Rohingya refugees illegally. We asked them to stop all their projects in Cox's Bazaar following directive from the NGO Affairs Bureau," Bari told the AFP news agency.

Bari said the charities "were encouraging an influx of Rohingya refugees" from across the border in Myanmar's Rakhine state in the wake of recent sectarian violence that left at least 80 people killed.

The charities have provided healthcare, training, emergency food and drinking water to the refugees living in Cox's Bazaar since the early 1990s.

MSF runs a clinic near one of the Rohingya camp which provides services to 100,000 people.

Fleeing violence

Speaking a Bengali dialect similar to one in southeast Bangladesh, the Rohingyas are Muslims seen as illegal immigrants by the Buddhist-majority Myanmar government and many Burmese.

They are viewed by the United Nations as one of the world's most persecuted minorities.

Obaidur Rahman, country head of Muslim Aid UK in Bangladesh, confirmed to AFP that his group had stopped its Rohingya project following the order.

The government says some 300,000 Rohingya Muslims are living in the country, the vast majority in Cox's Bazaar, after fleeing persecution in Myanmar. About 30,000 are registered refugees who live in two camps run by the United Nations.

In recent weeks, Bangladesh has turned away boats carrying hundreds of Rohingya fleeing the violence in Myanmar despite pressure from the United States and rights groups to grant them refuge.

Myanmar security forces opened fire on Rohingya Muslims, committed rape and stood by as rival mobs attacked each other during the recent wave of sectarian violence, New York-based Human Rights Watch said Wednesday.

The authorities failed to protect both Muslims and Buddhists and then "unleashed a campaign of violence and mass roundups against the Rohingya", the group said in a report.

Bro Hamza - the footage of the burning people is an old video from Africa - where the locals found 5 black magic practitioners, and decided to burn them... this is not the rohingya people.

Just type in "5 people burned for being accused of black magic in africa" and see what turns up.

:sl:

Yes there is a note at the beginning of a similar video saying that although the footage is not directly from Burma, it is exactly the same as what is happening in Burma right now.
 
I think they make a bad point by using videos that are not relative to the situation - but only pseudo-relative... doesn't work for me.

Presenting the facts with evidence is what will help to make the case stronger. This is why I am being careful with what I use in the video, and so far - the case put forward contains info that is indisputable...

I've stopped working on it because it's the last ten now, but come Eid, it's back on... I really want to complete this ASAP to be honest, but you are right bro Hamza, last ten days are paramount.

JEDDAH: NADEEM AL-HAMID
Friday 10 August 2012

The tragic situation in Syria, and the crisis in Myanmar caused by the persecution of the Muslim Rohingya people of the Arakan region will figure prominently in the extraordinary Islamic summit to be held in Makkah on August 14-15, Secretary-General of the 57-member Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu has announced.

“All preparations and arrangements have been completed for the grand event to be held in the last days of the holy month of Ramadan,” he told Arab News in an exclusive interview.

Ihsanoglu added that the summit would also consider the Palestinian cause and the Al-Quds (Jerusalem) issues, which were the two main factors behind the establishment of the OIC in 1969.

Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah has called for the convening of an Islamic solidarity summit to be held in Makkah on 26-27th of Ramadan to discuss various issues facing the Ummah and further augment cohesion and solidarity in the Muslim world.
According to Ihsanoglu, meetings of senior officials and foreign ministries of the Islamic countries will precede the summit to finalize the agenda to be considered by the leaders.

He said the summit would consider all issues of concern to the Islamic world and hoped that the summit would be of great success, especially since it was being held during the last days of Ramadan coinciding with Lailat Al-Qadr, when the Qur’an was revealed.

“The Islamic leaders have a historic responsibility to make the Makkah summit a success, so as to ensure the Islamic world with security and stability,” he said.
Ihsanoglu said the summit has combined the sanctity of both place and time, and added that it was being held at a crucial juncture for the Islamic world, which had been anxiously awaiting King Abdullah to come out with such an initiative.

Following is the text of the interview:How do you consider the importance of the summit called for by the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques to be held in Makkah and what do you expect from it?

The call made by King Abdullah to hold this extraordinary Islamic summit during these blessed days could not be timelier. Muslims had been expecting the King to make a move such as this in view of the gravity of the situation in the Muslim world. I do not think that there is any leader, other than King Abdullah, to whom all other Islamic leaders are in unanimous agreement. Nobody can doubt that by his very personality, integrity and honorable history, the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques is a symbol for Islam and Muslims. Through many other initiatives, the king has proved that he was always above differences and rifts.

The summit is being convened at a time the Ummah is aspiring for the closure of its ranks. For this reason, we expect the summit to make decisions that will heal the rifts among Muslim countries. King Abdullah had called for the third extraordinary Islamic summit in 2005 while he was Crown Prince. That was a sincere, and at the same time, an innovative call. The King’s call for this extraordinary summit is also sincere in the intention of bringing the Ummah together. The Muslim leaders will assemble around the Holy Kaaba to take their responsibilities toward their people in front of Almighty Allah.

What are the issues to be discussed by the summit according to their importance and priorities for the Islamic world?

The summit will be preceded by a meeting at the level of foreign ministers, and another one at the level of senior officials. I strongly believe that the convening of the summit during the Holy month of Ramadan, coinciding with Lailat Al-Qadr, will be a good omen for the Ummah. The leaders should shoulder their historic responsibilities toward their people and Ummah. There are pressing matters that should be discussed. There are grave issues on which urgent decisions are required. Appropriate decisions should be taken to face this perilous situation. A new vision to face the disintegration of the Muslim world must be crystallized. The leaders should agree on a plan to stop the bloodshed and the killing of innocent people. We must make a decision that will protect the Syrian people. The situation in Syria will be very much present at the summit, and it will be at the top of the agenda. The situation in Syria is developing every day, and when the summit is convened, it has to consider the latest developments and undertake decisions that will stop the bloodbath and protect Syria and the region from the hazards of civil war and the spread of violence. There are other important matters in front of the summit — persecution, repression and violence against the Muslim Rohingyas in Myanmar. The Muslim nation has a duty toward the Burmese Muslims of the Arakan region. Racial and religious liquidations are going on in Myanmar. We are making great efforts at the level of the organization, but the issue has to be treated at the level of the summit. No doubt that Palestine and Al-Quds, which led to the creation of the OIC, would prominently figure in the summit.

What do you expect the summit to do regarding the tragic situations in Syria and Myanmar? Are there any serious and decisive resolutions to be issued by the summit on these two issues?

Since the incidents started in March 2011, the world community and the international will were divided. The regime was unable to achieve security and stability. Kofi Annan’s six-point plan failed and he had to resign. The UN monitors could do nothing of value. There is a grave deficit in the world order. The situation requires agreement between the five international powers that are divided among Western and Eastern blocks as we can see now. The cold war has resurfaced through the Syrian gate. This war is between Russia and China on one hand and America and the West on the other. The present situation will be settled either by mutual agreements on the ground or by the ongoing war which will culminate in bringing down the regime. Another option is that the regime will make sacrifices at the last moment in the favor of the country and the people. The regime may finally realize that it is the leaders who make sacrifices for their people not vice versa.

The leaders of the Ummah have a great responsibility in protecting the Syrian people. The summit has to come out with a strong political resolution that will end the crisis in Syria and stop the bloodshed.

Regarding the situation in Myanmar, we called for a meeting of the executive committee in Jeddah on Aug. 5. The meeting was successive and it made recommendations which will be forwarded to the summit by the senior officials and the foreign ministers. I am sure that the Muslim leaders will spare no efforts to find a solution to the predicament of the Rohingya Muslims in Arakan.

Well, the meeting was today, and i dont think there is a solution right now, from what i know, they only suspended syria from the group.

But we will see.

Hot off the press. I was surprised to read this:

With all due respect to the leaders of the Muslim world,
sedition is not unavoidable destiny


ABDUL RAHMAN BIN HAMAD AL-SAEED
Tuesday 14 August 2012

First and foremost, we should thank Almighty Allah for enabling you to gather around His Sacred House during these blessed Ramadan nights. We hope that Allah will help you better serve your nations.


Leaders of the Muslim World:

We do not need to remind you that you are meeting at a turning point in the history of your nations. It is a moment in which sedition, with all its evils and tragedies, is protruding and all elements of success have been ensured for it. We do not want to hold you responsible for the emergence of sedition. Many of us, the citizens, are equally to blame for intentionally or unintentionally rekindling its fires. The result, however, is the same. Is it too late for such a talk? Has the train of sedition already started its journey or is there still an area for hope? To be honest with you we do not know but pray to Allah that there is still time for the wise and the benevolent to do what pleases Allah and what can preserve lives, souls and blood.

I will not take a long time in explaining the causes of sedition or its manifestations. I will not also indulge in futile talk about who was responsible for it. Such talk may only increase its flames. However, we want to tell you that the Ummah will judge you by the results of your meeting and can know where it is going. Instead of talking too much about sedition, its causes and consequences, we want to tell you that the reasons for optimism have not yet completely ended. Look at the world around you. It has forgotten its sectarian and racial differences and started a fabulous race towards wider horizons in which the scientific and civilization achievements synchronize with the spirit of tolerance and coexistence. Why do we go too far in this talk while there are actually among you brothers leading delegations of countries such as Turkey and Malaysia which are now role models for the values of dialogue, tolerance and sincere work. We are not dreaming when we say hope is not completely lost.
We are not a peculiar nation as some people claim. Our problem is that some amongst us were not able to successfully confront the extremists and the propagators of sedition so we became too close to a state in which we might lose everything and which may make us regress decades of years.

I hope that I am not going to the extreme when I say the development gap between us and the other nations of the world is greatly widening but not to our favor.

It may suffice to remember that every 15 seconds a child dies of thirst, lack of nutrition and lack of proper medical and sanitary services. Unfortunately most of these children are Muslims!! What will then be the case if we allow or participate in the spread of sedition? We will have more of the thirst, the hunger and backwardness. Who will then be responsible? It is definitely all of us (peoples and leaders). We will be responsible in front of God and history. There are no exceptions.


Leaders of the Muslim world:

We pray to Allah to inspire you with a way out of your predicament and guide your steps towards the welfare of your nation. Please allow me to present these simple proposals to you:

Firstly: All the leaders participating in the summit should sign a strong pledge to void sedition, foil the cropping up of differences and end extremism and fanaticism. They should also agree to silence all the voices and the forums which propagate sedition supplying with the required tools and resources.

Secondly: A group of wise personalities who are known for piety and rationale and who are acceptable to everyone should emanate from the summit to suggest ways and means of dealing with crises before they snowball and become difficult to resolve.

Thirdly: We are looking forward towards a unanimous decision that will end the state of boycott among some countries. The decision should make it a must of every country to attend the Islamic summit. There should be regular summits and not just extraordinary ones. Absence from the summits will make it more difficult for countries to promote understanding.


Leaders of the Muslim world:

Much was said about the source and origins of our problems which were attributed to the plots and machinations of others. This is not only an underestimation of the rationale of the wise men and the leaders of the Ummah but will make us believe that sedition is an unavoidable destiny which is a totally wrong notion. We are capable by the grace of Allah and your wisdom to overcome this serious juncture.

I have no doubt that history will record that Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz has absolved his conscience. He has exerted tremendous efforts and made a good choice of the time and place for this meeting. Allah may reward you for accepting the invitation to participate in the summit so as to take the Ummah to the shores of safety and security.

It is the right of every Muslim to ask if you are part of the problem or that the solution will be in your hands.

I strongly pray to Allah to make your gathering a complete success and to enable you to achieve the hopes and aspirations of your nations.

Abdul Rahman bin Hamad Al-Saeed

It's not Burma sis... most of these pics we are seeing aren't... For example:

The pic we've all seen of the Buddhists in their maroon robes standing around hoardes of dead bodies? Remember it? Yes, we all do, how can we forget that sight...

Well, that photo was taken of the relief effort after the Tsunami. The Buddhists were gathering the bodies together, doing the jobs no one else was willing to do...

The bottom line is, A picture paints a thousand words - but it all depends on who is speaking.

Don't fall for the hype. I am believing no photo... I want HARD VIDEO EVIDENCE. Otherwise, I'm only fooling myself along with others - and I don't want that responsibility on my shoulders. Nuh uh.

The internet is a powerful weapon. Remember what started on facebook became a revolution in another country... this is dangerous stuff.

Scimi
 
I have my ideas... remember the Shill Thread? That plays a big clue (for those who don't - all it takes is a paid agent, a misinformant - to distrubute these fakely attributed photos onto Muslim sites, and next thing you know -they go viral)... next, it's the Muslims who don't think - and just lap up anything they are shown.

You know, as an Ummah, we're really failing ourselves.

I, myself, feel like I have failed in those terms too. But admitting we have a problem is the first step to finding solutions.

It's no longer about who did what - it's about "what to do next?"

I don't see anyone providing solutions, all I see is people making the problem worse.

and, Is this really an image of a slaughter of Muslims by Buddhist monks?

http://www.skeptical-science.com/wp...76_10150986274688261_338806760_n1-300x216.jpg

or is it a pic of Buddhists doing the job no one else was willing to do? Gather up dead bodies after the Tsunami...

there's another one of a Buddhist monk with a pistol in his hand (a beretta)... and upon closer inspection, I found that it was photoshopped... I binned it, but shoulda kept it to show you.

Also, the Buddhist monks in Burma usually wear orange, not maroon. The Tibetan monks wear maroon.

Hundreds of Rohingya Forced to Flee As New Wave of Attacks Hit Region



Reports have been flooding in this afternoon of a new wave of attacks on Rohingya this afternoon leaving hundreds homeless and looking for shelter on foot during toreential monsoon rains whilst others were left dead. The recent clashes have been reported from 4 villages near Rauthedoung were as many as 12 have been killed with 1,000 Rohingya displaced as well as in 3 villages south of Maungdaw where 3 people have been killed this Thursday.



In the minutes leading up to sunset as many Rohingya were preparing to open their fasts (Ramadhan) hundreds of Rakhine activists armed with sticks, batons and other weaponry forced their way into Rohingya houses in three adjacent villages. As the villagers attempted to fight back against the Rakhine who had violated their homes, Lun Htin and Nasaka (Burmese armed forces and paramilatary) opened live rounds of fire on the villagers. Three men and one woman have been shot dead whilst many others have been injured. In total the three entire villages are being evacuated with the Rohingya unsure of where they are to move to next. Whilst one of the sources was describing the events , shooting and wailing could be herad in the background.



In a seperate incident, but most likely part of this new wave of violence, four villages near Rathedoung were attacked late last night, Wednesday, leaving more than 12 dead and over 1,000 Rohingya displaced. Similar to incidents in Maungdaw today, Rakhine had attacked the villages and were backed up by Burmese armed forces and paramilitary servicemen. The forces pushed the Rohingya villages from their homes, across the river and now the camp of 1,000 are moving north through mountainour terrains and during monsoon season looking for shelter. 12 people have been confirmed dead - 8 were shot dead and 4 more have lost their lives battling against the elements whilst being shelterless.



As international media have recently been reporting from the region and as an aid deal has been agreed by the President with OIC, this is seen as the final, brutal wave against the Rohingya uring the recent clashes. It is feared that this move will be drawn out over many days surely, many more lives will be lost.



More information and detail to follow...

Oppression, injustice and brutal killing of our brothers and sisters around the world... all of that need only one cure; the cure which the Muslims left long ago for the love of this dunya and whats in it; till the disease of weakness, cowardice and humiliation spreaded and bowed the necks under the feet of the enemies of Allah...

lets not delude ourselves with any other reasons or flatter the heads of disbelieving...

our sisters and brothers are being killed day and night and they need not only food and our money; they need us to be real Muslims but how while our leards are having sweet chats in some fancy big rooms ( the same old habit). our brothers and sisters in Palestine are being killed since ages and still those are having their chats and very effective decisions and solutions ma shaa Allah I am afraid that I may give them an evil eye may Allah bless them ma shaa Allah...

many are tortured, raped, killed and humiliated for years and years and still our smart leaders who have all the cures and solutions; flying in peace carrying in their mouths the olive branch wow ma shaa Allah... God bless ya all...

but the victory is not with those created out of dust then out of worthless water ; of Nutfah (mixed semen drops of male and female discharge); no, not with nor from them but with Allah and from Him. laa ilaha illa Allah.

The word of the truth is to be said fearing none but Allah and I swear by Him The Most Just that the day of the cure is coming soon in shaa Allah and O Allah I beg You please to make me part of it and especially from the first dose O Allah Ameeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen

"Whoever thinks that Allah will not help him (Muhammad SAW) in this world and in the Hereafter, let him stretch out a rope to the ceiling and let him strangle himself. Then let him see whether his plan will remove that whereat he rages! (15)" Surat Al Hajj

Ya Rabb! Rahmatuk Ya Rabb! Nassruk Ya Rabb! laa taj'anaa fitnatan lellatheena Zalamu Ya Rabb! Ridaaka wa firdawsuk Ya Rabb! laa tahrimna ru'oyatuk feljannah

When (will come) the Help of Allah?" Yes! Certainly, the Help of Allah is near! it is coming O Ummah of Islam just be patient and try your best to be from true Mu'mineen and Muttaqeen in shaa Allah... May Allah help us to worship Him right and Be pleased with us always and forever Ameeeen

leaving you under Allah's sight, care and protection.

Amat Allah.
 
I don't think the world is silent about Burma...since there are many articles about it. I think there was an e-petition about it in the UK. Anyway, countries will not interfere in Burma unless it benefits their national interests. So intervention by countries is the worst solution.

Probably some wealthy Muslims can come together and help the Muslims in Burma like transporting them to safer places...but I doubt it. I doubt ordinary Muslims can do anything on their own, even with the donations.

Difficult to find a solution.
