Sikh Gurdwara at Dubai (UAE) To Be Built :)

[جوري]

Shiekh says he's gifted it to the Sikhs. I'm not sure what the reasons. but I'm Sikhs living there have contributed towards paying taxes etc then they are ENTITLED TO IT!!!!

I don't know whether they pay taxes or not and that is auxiliary to the fact.. I pay taxes here, and still if we want to erect a mosque, we pay for it and get a permit.. so my opinion is still, that this is an abomination if done by Muslim money.. since sikhs aren't even people of the book.. basically we are bringing paganism back!

If this indeed came from Muslim money then all I can say is what an abomination!

I stick to my opinion.In this time of intolerance its a great sign to show the muslims are not so against-others. I didn't followed the event but even with the Pope they had a meeting :-[ to improve the relations with catholics. I am sure if the sikh would have bought alone the land would not be the same. and don't forget the gudwara costs the sikhs will pay for it.

I didn't realise you lived in UAE...Considering that's what we're talking about...

And if you want to dicuss paganism, well don't get me started on Islam! (not that I want to) So, saying Sikhism is a Pagan religion is offensive to me! So happy people like you are not in charge of such matters. Because the Shiekh obviously has braincells!

I have no probs with them having a place of worship whatsoever.. I do have a problem however, knowing that Muslims look into garbage to break their fast in Ramadan in areas like palestine, are refugees and going to bed hungry in their own lands, while 'sofaha'a' aka profligate leaders waste Money that rightly belongs to Muslims by Islamic law erecting pagan temples ...

peace

She lives in the US.
In the UK a lot of mosques and Islamic schools are entirely or publicly funded. Are you against that, Skye?

You are entitled to your beliefs and to worship as you please and to think of us what you may, but sikhism is a pagan religion according to Muslims..

I think England should be divided up between India/ Hong Kong/ China and Africa, if you really want my opinion!

The UAE is far from being an Islamic state, so whats the problem anyway?

Its a land. I am sure the leaders in questions have enough money to give for food too if they would wish to do that. But i think they read the economic theory related to food and decided to step back. So... You have no reason to be angry. I am delighted a small minority of other religion will have a place where to go and worship.

Well, Dubai certainly exploits large numbers of cheap foreign labor, some of which are bound to be Sikhs, so it's about time they did something for them!

Nothing to do with converting.. I am talking about wasting Islamic resources!
I think the money is misplaced!

Oh yes, the finance allocated for the Sikh Gurdwara WILL eradicate poverty for the Muslims worldwide! My Lord, one must inform the Shiekh of this, because it'll be a revelation to him and his Government! :rollseyes

Well, its not and giving land to the Sikhs won't make it any less Islamic.
Sometimes acts of tolerance are worth more than the money they cost. Saying the money is misplaced is a joke, seeing what else is being built there.

Even if it were a hundred dollar gurdwa--, that would suffice to feed an x number of families.. It isn't about how much or how little.. it is the principal, that money that belongs to Muslims by Islamic law, be it in UAE or Brunei would be misplaced.. I don't approve of UAE giving a gift of this nature, anymore than I approve the son of the sultan or Brunei giving a 15 million dollar necklace to the prostitute Mariah carey..

It is really that simple..

Where are the hadiths telling to destroy other religions :?

You are missing the point entirely.. and what else is being built isn't any less flagitious, be it gambling casinos or bars...

is it any wonder the entire Muslim world will suffer the action of the morons in charge as per suret al-anfal

I'm sure it wasn't just handed over willy nilly. Sikhs contribute to society in many ways. Ask the British...
