I believe a debate regarding the divisions between the Sunni & Shia Muslims would be the most beneficial as well as provocative topic.

Especially in a country which relies upon FAMILY TIES as succession to Leadership, why is this deep division about a family member taking over Authority to carry on Mohamad's work in deference to a non-family member .

I believe, in todays world, solving this division is in the best interest of ALL Muslims.

Again amateur type question. Go and read ur history and do ur homework. West DOES NOT want democracy in Middle East. Do u know y? Cos think each time there is an election in oil producing country there will chaos which can affect the oil prices. It's better to put a puppet government who will be easy to deal with than going throughthe hassle of making new relations each time. It is for one of the reasons almost all of the arab countries were installed there by Western country. Now go and do ur homework about good deeds of ur country instead of whining here.

Palestinians voted democratically for a government last month.... What was the West reaction? To shun it...

The West wants democracy in the Arab world, but only tailored to suit their wants and needs... Not those of the people who are supposed to vote in their government for their country....

The West is hypocritical...

Yeah, and no other countries ever interfere with the governments of neighbouring countries - only the big bad West ever does that Some people need to take the blinders off.

ROM, I think the question about the division of Sunni and Shiia Muslims would be an excellent one. It is a topic certainly avoided on this forum because some members would rather spend all their time blaming the West for atrocities against Muslims. They want to bury their heads in the sand that Muslims are killing Muslims and interfering in governments. I'm not saying that the West hasn't been to blame for meddling and causing harm, but it is high time that Muslims also looked into their own divisive issues.

Ignorance is Bliss

First of all, you do not know who I am, my background or education etc...
Your reaction is typical, attack the messenger NOT the message !
Perhaps if you were to read this Blog entry of mine:
Iraq's sectarian violence @ http://inademocracysilenceispermission. ... _id=260367
you may further enlighten me on these questions I posed?

I think the best Topic to debate is "What will be the future in Iraq?"
This will cover many topics like:
Sunni and Shiaa
Different sects of Iraq population (Sunni, Shiaa, Kurds)
Democracy in the Middle East
The USA interference in our (arabs) internal issues.



Personally, i would prefer Saddam stayed in Ruling than what is happening now.

I also belive that the clash among Sunni and Shiaa is being driven by USA agents. such as bombing the shiaa shrine. Stability in Iraq is not good for USA needs.

yshimy, how do you account for the fact that religious infighting has been happening before Iraq was invaded by the coalition? Also, how do you account for Saddam Hussein's treatment of different Muslim groups when he was in power? Your argument might have more weight if you provided evidence that implicates the US - not just your own opinion.

You know so little of Arabs and their affairs....

OK, so enlighten me

ROM, I've asked the same questions before from the same people, and all I get are one-liners.

Your Avatar expresses my sentiments precisely as how I feel most times !

(from some people)

If Ummah.Net didn't enlighten you then nothing well...

If your so called studies of Islam from the original Arabic Quran didn't enlighten you then nothing well...

Kanelli, stop running around me posting responses to everything I type!!!

Here is my one line until i go home and have the time to type.

My source..... Check the statistics (if there is) of people dying due to sectarian differences before and after the invasion....

note: 339 died in the couple of days after the shrine exploded.

Note: The collation forces where not there during saddam time.

Note: If sunna wanted to bomb it, they would have done it during Saddam time and not wait until the collition forces are there. (concpircy theory)

Hmm? I certainly never stated that I studied Islam from the original Arabic Quran.
And http://www.ummah.net/forum/ never offered guidance except :
A Sticky for All Bible-Thumpers
AbuMubarak

These are Ahmad Deedat Speeches which expose the lies of Christianity and the Bible

as well as all the threads about 'Death to the Kufr' yadda yadda

So, I'm not quite certain how anyone could even begin to discover islam when they are automatically labeled filth and sentenced for death.

Man, as i told you, it might be only wrong address.

BTW Ahmed deedat is very known muslim scholar and not someone fanatic. one of the most known Debates was his one with another priest that was done live in South Africa i think, and at the end of this Debate, the other Priest (very highly ranked in the church and not just one from the street) converted to islam and was convinced that islam is the True path.

Try to check out the video, i remember it was in the 80's or even check the script, i think you can find it online somewhere. i'll try to find it, great to refresh one's memory with some reading.

Cheers

Here is an idea as to your request...

1.Culture and Imperialism , the late Edward Said, Chomsky, Robert Frisk to name a few might be good research material to accompany debate...

2. Dissidence In Iraq ( see the quote from Badr Shaqir al -Sayyad, 1958 as an intro...In every drop of rain....)

3. The anthropology of Justice ( Law as culture in Islamic Society....(see L. Rosen)

To name a few

Bilal Phillips.com

is a good website to read on the work of muslim among non muslims.

i suggest :


Growing old is mandatory but growing up is optional -
case study "arniegang"

History shows that shia and sunni divide are centruies old,,, the Prophet Muhammad himself has already stated the number of different sect of muslims that there will be...

So for muslims to come now in 21st cent and say fix i believe is to be blind or deaf to Prophet of Islams warnings...or prehaps be one from the group who call themselves muslims but do not accept the Prophet as being choosed by Allah...

Therefore Muslims in this time should better serve the Islamic communities with their education and efforts to see the actions of the West for all it is....

The struggle for the Palestianian land is a reminder that agents seek to continue the occupation of waqaf lands and this should be a concern for all people calling themselves muslims..

The wars in muslim lands Iraq and Afghan are now being used as diversions,,,it seems that some educated muslims are falling into being distracted..

I have been to Palestine and learned to appreciate the struggle of the people better as a muslim...

Palestine and the Mosque of Alaqsa , all 3 masjids on the compound holds special place in Islamic history as well as connections to Musa' Isa to name a few...

The discussions should therefore be about muslims uniting in Islamic causes not sectarian ones.

It is interesting to note that it the Shia muslims state of Iran that has publicly offered to help new Palestine gov, Hamas, when the supposedly democratic ones of the west are blackmailing the people into starvation.
