The "Secret Bible" Which Predicts The Coming of Prophet Muhammad (saw)

A 1500 year old "Secret Bible" where Isa (As) predicted the coming of Prophet Muhammad (saw) along with other notable Muslim views has been discovered in Turkey.

This Bible which correctly not only predicts the coming of the Prophet but also rejects Christian stories about the Trinity and Crucifixion has resulted in worrying interest from the Vatican who have officially requested the Turks hand it over for inspection.

LM urges the Turks not to give it to the Vatican an organisation who have always traditionally suppressed the truth so rather than listen to the usual trumped up stories of this Bible being a fake or going missing should they get their grubby hands on it lets keep it in Muslim hands.

Umrah 2012

LM is off to Umrah in March so I am concentrating and preparing for the journey and pilgrimage.

I'll be a little light on articles as I intend to visit both Mecca and Medina and stay for a couple of weeks. Although there is Internet access at the hotels i'm staying in LM is not sure how reliable or at what cost so I'll try to post a few articles during my stay but dont bet on it. This is my first Umrah so I will need advice prior to departure on a host of issues which I will seek via a number of later updates to this Post.

Baroness Sayeeda Warsi Warns Secularism A Threat To Religion


It comes to something when we Muslims have to provide the UK with their first Muslim female Cabinet Minister in order for her to lecture society on the dangers of militant secularism.

Not content with giving Christians advice on how to be a Christian nation Warsi has just met Nazi Joe at the Vatican in order to tell Joe how she agrees with his concern that Christianity is being marginalised. Lets hope she also advised him on following the true path by reverting to Islam and seeking Allah swt forgiveness.

It goes without saying and the clue is in the title of this blog that LM believes a society rooted in faith is one that will ultimately prosper because there is broad agreement on the need for civilised norms of behaviour that are conducive to a well ordered society with rights and responsibilities rather than for example what we saw in the summer here in London during the riots.

Well done Warsi and if Christians need more Muslim help than I'm sure we are all willing to offer further guidance where appropriate.

UAE's Widad Lootah Urges Muslim Women to Enjoy Sex


Widad Lootah a marriage counsellor or "love guru" from the UAE has urged Muslim married women to enjoy sex by "embracing love and love making" in some fairly explicit X rated views.

LM has no intention of turning this article into a Muslim sex guide however, what often bemuses me about occasions when Muslim sexperts provide us with their wisdom is why they always focus on woman as if that is where the problem lies assuming of course one accepts there is a problem.

When Lootah, who you can see in this interview talks about women needing to enjoy sex and have fun rather than only thinking of it in terms of conceiving children what about men. Surely the issue of enjoyment of sex within marriage requires both partners to be honest and open with each other about their feelings and requirements.

There is a growing tendency like with the establishment of the Obedient Wife's Club to appear to focus only on women as the problem when it comes to sex rather than in my opinion both women and men.

Deaf Girl Tells Court How Pakistani Couple Sexually Abused Her Like A Slave



A deaf girl has told a court how an elderly Pakistani couple abused and treated her as a slave with beatings and rape a regular occurrence after she was trafficked to the UK from Pakistan in 2000.

The girl who has has not been named alleges she was the victim of abuse for years and is now thought to be aged between 19 and 21.

LM should point out Illyas Ashar and his wife (pictured) who are facing charges of false imprisonment and human trafficking have not yet been found guilty as court proceedings are still ongoing. However, my heart bleeds for the poor orphan girl who was deaf and has to go to court to recount unimaginable cruelty.

Mr Ashar denies 12 counts of rape and benefit fraud while his wife denies sexual assault as the trial continues.

Sorry no Comments allowed for legal reasons.

London Muslim Spring Will Elect Ken Livingstone And Defeat Boris Johnson


With the latest poll indicating both Boris and Ken are virtually neck and neck in the race to be London's Mayor London Muslims and our vote will be absolutely decisive in the final outcome.

It goes without saying that Ken Livingstone is one of the very few politicians who has consistently sided and defended Muslims from the usual right wing Neo Con rabble rousers and the wider anti Muslim brigade amongst the Israelites and pen pushers at London's Evening Standard who have also been all to ready to join the anti Muslim cottage industry.

You can always judge a friend by the enemies he has and Ken has his enemies who are my enemies and every Muslims enemy. LM believes it is the duty of all Muslims in London to begin to start to spread the message that we must be politically literate and organised to ensure the defeat of Boris. It is high time we Muslims used the ultimate weapon of mass destruction the ballot box to ensure any politician who goes against our wider interests and causes will pay the price democratically through their humiliation and defeat at the hands of the Muslim vote.

LM believes we London Muslims have a perfect opportunity to use the mechanism that our fellow Brothers and Sisters are currently dying for in the Middle East ie democracy to establish a sympathetic and caring Mayor at City Hall. Make no mistake LM is not urging people to solely vote Labour as I am way beyond being considered as some kind of block vote that simply votes Labour in order for that party to repay my loyalty with wars against Muslims and the destruction of our civil liberties.

On the contrary, LM urges London Muslims to vote for a man who has all his life fought the bigotry and hatred of racism which is why he so despised by the right wing not just in the Tory Party but also in the Labour Party when they tried to defeat him using a "black" woman Oona King who got a good political kicking by Muslims in Bethnal Green.

This election will be dirty because every vote counts, it is that close and the deciding factor will not be our votes but our turnout. In other words sitting at home saying we are Ken supporters is not enough, making sure we vote and urging all friends and family to do the same will be the crucial difference. In addition joining his campaign is more productive and tangible so come on be the change and make a difference by volunteering or donating. London Muslims you did this city proud by standing firm showing your inherent decency by protecting London from the riots now do us proud again in the spring by helping to defeat Boris on May 2.

The Fate of Saudi Blogger Hamza Kashgari Hangs In The Balance After Insulting the Prophet (Pbuh)

Perhaps LM's title might be an inappropriate use of words but it accurately sums up the predicament Saudi blogger Hamza Kashgari faces after his insult and blasphemy towards Prophet Muhammad (saw)

LM is not going to beat around the Bush with platitudes trying to establish what on earth was in Kashgari's mind or try to excuse an evident and obvious Apostasy.

However, where the man has repented although not sufficiently in the mind of Sheikh Nasser Al Omar who wants his head LM thinks back to the meaning of the words "Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim" (in the name of God, the merciful and compassionate). Mercy and compassion that is what the Quran says and what we pray Allah swt will be towards us on the day of judgement so can we as Muslims not also be merciful and compassionate when implementing justice which is why I link to the Petition site to stop his execution and pray that Allah swt rightly guides this individual to the true path.

Ken Will Stop The Boris Police Cuts

Did Charles Dickens Really Dislike Jews?

While the rest of us were celebrating the 200th birthday of Charles Dickens and doesn't he look well for his age the Jewish Chronicle were busy implying he was anti Semitic for using stereotypes towards the Jewish community like Fagin in Oliver Twist.

In a rather confused long winded article Jenniffer Lipman seems to be arguing with herself when she reluctantly appears to acknowledge what the the rest of the world has that Dickens was perhaps this country's finest writer although Shakespeare fans might have something to say about that.

LM found it ironic how my old muckers at the JC attack a writer of Dicken's calibre for apparently using stereotypes yet remarkably stay silent when Jewish owned organisations most notably in the form of Richard Desmond's stable of papers like the Daily Excrement and Daily Star currently do the very same to Muslims. Interestingly Ms Lippman is never slow and correctly so when stereotypes are still used towards Jews however, perhaps the next time we Muslims come under unwarranted attack from a Jewish proprietors stable of papers the JC will similarly and consistently attack the use of Muslim stereotypes.

Malaysia's Ibrahim Anwar Offends All Muslims With His Support For Israel


Malaysia oppopsition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has offended Muslims by offering his support for the State of Israel here and here.

During this interview with Murdoch's Wall Street Journal he inexplicably offered his support for the security of Israel at the expense of the Palestinians. On Monday LM was explaining the role of some western Neo Con journalists who have their sights on Malaysia and seek to undermine it by causing tension and Anwar has fallen for this trap by taking the Murdoch inspired bait. Given his previous remarks that Israeli spies were running Malaysia LM is all the more dumbfounded by these latest remarks. Having laid the trap read how Murdoch's Shibani Mattini then follows up the Anwar interview with an article saying how "Israel continues to divide this Muslim country". Shibani is on Twitter.

For the BBC and Jennifer Pak who is also on Twitter it is a focus on Christian Muslim Tension and Murdoch's WSJ via Shibani pursue the Israel card. Malaysians read my Monday article to understand how your enemies are attempting to divide and cause tension.

LM has expressed my admiration for Anwar's daughter Nurul Izzah Anwar who I have described as the Daughter of Malaysia and condemned the trumped up charges he was facing over sodomy allegations. However, his comments about Israel are unacceptable and for a man who could lead Malaysia this year he should immediately apologise, it is not Israel the genocidal occupier that needs support but the true victims of oppression the Palestinians.

Syria's Asma Assad Defends Her Tyrant Husband


West London born Acton Girl Asma Assad whose family with a desperate sense of irony originally hail from Homs has come out in support of her brutal husbands bloody and murderous crackdown of the Syrian uprising.

LM is sadly not in the least surprised that these Gucci Muslims when push comes to shove are more than wiling to see innocent Muslim blood spilled then ever again suffer the temerity of having to queue up in Tesco's for the groceries. Asma Assad like Queen Rania of Jordan is used to receiving a gushing press in the West because of their western fashion sense which masks the tyrants they and the families they have married into really are. A Assad was born up the road from me in Acton, strangely called herself Emma and went to a Private School to study A Levels.

While I'm not surprised about the instinctive support by Asma Assad towards her husbands desperate and violent attempt to cling on to power regardless of the bloodshed what also wont surprise me is to see her husband crawl out of the sewers like Gaddafi or face the noose like Saddam Hussain when eventually the Syrian people gain their freedom inshallah.

Abu Qatada

Labour have been granted an urgent question on Abu Qatada today from Paul Goggins again in order to presumably attack the Tories for being soft on National Security with the usual suspects crawling out of the woodwork.

Something doesn't really add up here. Qatada like Babar Ali has never been charged or put on Trial yet he will be released to claim welfare benefits along with the cost of security surveillance. Rather than the knee jerk reaction by a whole host of right wing Labour insects like Ian Austin and Hazel Blears attacking the entire Muslim community perhaps someone might want to raise the wider civil liberties angle about why we in the UK increasingly lock people up without charge.

LM has always been confused by those that detest the West and its democracy although not enough to prevent the submission of a Welfare Benefit claim, a free Council House and lets not forget he came here on a lie by sneaking in on a false passport. I've written previously about my views of Muslim scroungers on Benefits.

Al Qaeeda (AQ) are an irrelevance as the Arab Spring has demonstrated the Bin Laden's, Abu Hamza's, Qatada's etc are yesterday's men forgotten in their own time machine with a warped sense of grievance and injustice when the Muslim Ummah themselves are increasingly taking up the successful albeit bloody struggle for emancipation from the very tyrants AQ claimed to oppose. Qatada you and your violent cronies are not needed or wanted but you will prove to be very useful for British Politicians this afternoon who will use you to attack we the vast majority of decent law abiding British Muslims going about our everyday lives without being apologists for violence and the death of innocent civilians.

**Update** No surprise Labour MP's Blunkett, Straw, Blears, Vaz scaremongering on 2012.

Peter Oborne on Islam Channel CEO Mohamed Ali: The Terrorist Who Wasn't


Peter Oborne writes an excellent article on Islam Channel CEO Mohamed Ali rebutting the slurs that have been peddled by the usual array of right wing creatures accusing him of being a Terrorist.

LM likes to think I have been ahead of the curve in my two articles about the false slurs concerning Brother Mohamed here and here where I also challenged the nonsense about an arrest warrant issued by the then Dictator of Tunisia Ben Ali which now has proved to be a badge of honour.

However, that said while he has aspirations for a political future in Tunisia LM urges Mohamed Ali to refresh the Current Affairs coverage at the Islam Channel which sadly is being allowed to stagnate by the hapless Carl Arrindel the Director of Current Affairs. Arrindel's approach is to assume all viewers are readers of the Guardian thus coverage is excessively highbrow for an audience that is largely political illiterate. LM hopes the CEO once again takes a firm grip or preferably hands the reigns over to his eldest son Mohammed who is equally astute as his father and an outstanding academic.

Pig's Head Found Outside Malaysian Mosque

A Pigs head was found outside a Malaysian Mosque which according to the BBC has caused "outrage".

LM is rather suspicious about the BBC reporting of this incident and in particular Jennifer Pak their correspondent in Kuala Lumpar who I have written about previously. The BBC have also shown their bias over the reporting of the Muslim Freedom Fighters in Minadano called the MILF which according to the BBC is a "Islamic Militant Group". What disturbs me is yes the Pigs Head which evidently had the sole purpose of being an insult and causing a reaction but also how the BBC have attempted once again to stoke communal tensions in Malaysia by virtually laying the blame at the hands of the Christian minority. Given the BBC's close proximity to western intelligence services that might provide one reason why Iran are gunning for BBC Persian staff.

History if it has taught us anything is how the West play the divide and rule game. Take a look at the Middle East for example and how Shia/Sunni differences are used by our enemies to cause mischief and turmoil while ultimately keeping us weak. In other words conflict in this day and age is not solely about War or military engagements but increasingly attempts at causing as much instability and tension in your enemies backyard without firing a bullet.

Journalists and educationalists are increasingly part of the armoury of Gov't who base themselves in country's, identify the weakest link then very subtly go about their business under the guise of objective journalism to sow the seeds of further conflict. When you think about it, frankly it is the least expensive and perhaps most productive weapon for Govt as you save on treasure and blood.

Take the example of Jennifer Pak who on her own web site complains about the difficulty of getting to interview people regarding her Muslim Christian tension story which she highlights in bold. She is a freelance journalist peddling a particular divisive narrative which LM prefers her to pursue perhaps via one of Murdoch's Neo Con outfits rather than on the BBC which I find objectionable.

Malaysia does have communal tensions between Christian and Muslims and LM has written about these issues in considerable detail here, here and here but while they are manageable sadly the internal differences have been noted by Malaysia's enemies. When for example Malaysia bans a book by the western puppet Lee Kuan Yew the former Singapore PM or Jewish football players are sadly subjected to anti Semitic chants in solidarity with Palestinians these are noted by western ambassadors with alarm. Consequently and clearly not by coincidence Pigs heads are found outside Mosques causing so called "outrage" according to the BBC.

LM's advice to my brothers and Sisters in Malaysia is your prosperity and democracy is in contrast to the decline of the West. While they will not invade because you have no oil what they will attempt as their colonial history signifies is to open the wounds of Christian Muslim conflict which is why I urge Malaysia's Muslims and Christians to settle their differences amicably and with mutual respect before you are further exploited and weakened by your enemies.

The New Muslim Football Celebration After Scoring Called Doing a Demba Ba


Should Muslims Celebrate Mawlid?

LM has always been intrigued by the debate we Muslims have over Mawlid ie the celebration of the Prophet Muhammad's (pbuh) birthday and is it innovation or not.

I've always tended to steer clear of major theological internal strife within Islam mainly because I'm no theologian or scholar and in part because if that is what tickles your fancy then their are loads of other places on the web for you to read up on.

This is an issue that always tends to be black or white for Muslims a bit like the Halal/Haram stuff which always seems to bypass the issue of makruh which is neither or Shia/Sunni divide to name but two. I have not celebrated Mawlid largely because It's not really been a family tradition and whenever a debate was had it was largely hostile and in the bidah camp.

LM cannot help the odd chuckle to see loads of beards and Green turbans in East London falling over in the snow shouting "no politics" when they go on Mawlid marches only to invite George Galloway and Stella Creasy to lead the march. Also, what is it with the Green Turbans call me old fashioned but I always thought Turbans were for those that practiced the Sikh faith? Perhaps what annoys me about the marches is the hypocrisy of those that invite Stella Creasy who has done nothing for the Muslim ummah apart from hoodwinking a few Walthamstow Pakistani's with visas which probably allowed her to defeat the excellent Muslim Hina Ansari a GP to be Labour's candidate in a very dirty selection battle.

However, returning to the substance of the debate Sheikh Qaradawi has issued a strong fatwa saying "celebrating the Prophet's birthday means celebrating the birth of Islam" thus approving the celebration of Mawlid. In addition, Al Azhar has accepted the permissibility along with others like the Grand Mufti of India but then all manner of Wahabis and Salafis will kick off with the innovation tag along with citing how the Prophet (pbuh) nor the Sahaba ever celebrated birthdays. Having manged to confuse myself even more perhaps LM is justified in taking the Fifth by sitting on the fence for this one and leaving you to enlighten me.

**Update** Check out this shocking reason why you should not celebrate Mawlid

Going Back To BT from Talk Talk

Sorry for the lack of posts recently once again the utterly hopeless and useless Talk Talk my ISP provider were to blame.

LM is feeling much more chirpy as I have ditched Talk Talk and rejoined BT. I'm not entirely sure where to start with my rant about Talk Talk but how about this they are a bunch of lying incompetent buffoons which should stop all their adverts with me.

Talk Talk have provided years of crap customer service and pathetic equipment which leaves you stuck just a few yards away from the router for a decent so called wifi connection compared to the outstanding BT Home Hub and their fantastic N technology which means I can sit dozens of yards away in the Garden and still get an excellent connection along with unlimited wifi from all their hotspots around the country.

However, its the lies which was the final straw for me. LM phoned Talk Talk to ask about fibre optics, they did a "speed test" and said 18 mb is what I could receive. LM being the mug I am said yes please sign me up only to be crawling along at 6 mb. Not surprisingly I cancelled my contract with Talk Talk despite their pathetic attempts at threats with termination fees although I was still within their "cooling off" period so I simply cancelled the Direct Debit. Within 24 hours they were on the phone which is slightly ironic because whenever I had a technical problem and requested a call back they would always refuse claiming they had no facility for outbound calls.

I'm back with BT and while early days the set up went fine, speed is twice that of Talk Talk and BT are setting up a new cabinet at the bottom of the road. For the non Geeks amongst you the Cabinet is the Green Box you see out on the streets and not to be confused with the Exchange so always check where your cabinet is and if it is fibre optic enabled to get the best connection.

LM realises at one stage or the other we will all have horror stories with our ISP including BT however, I'm not surprised Talk Talk are one of the most complained about Telecoms companies and that's official from the regulator OFCOM.

74 Dead in Egypt after Football Violence

At least 74 people have been killed and almost 1000 injured following shocking and horrific violence during a football match in Egypt. Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajiun (إِنَّا لِلّهِ وَإِنَّـا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعونَ)

The scale of the violence and extent of death clearly indicates a significant breakdown in the norms of behaviour one expects from a civilised society as individuals went equipped and with the intention to cause harm.

While the violence and deaths are unprecedented previous comments by those involved in Egyptian football have indicated a major problem which LM highlighted ie the Egyptian manager saying he would only select Muslims for the national team or Zaki refusing to play with an Algerian.

The tension with a fellow Muslim nation Algeria became so bad that Gaddafi when he was not crawling out sewer tried to mediate and resolve tensions between the two nations following a stupid football row.

Although sad to punish all Egyptians LM believes that the loss of life and violence must result in an immediate domestic ban on football within Egypt and FIFA banning Egypt from international competition until a full scale Inquiry gets to the bottom of what and who caused the violence and they should only be allowed to return when suitable punishment for the culprits is carried out providing justice for the bereaved families.
