    In the name of Allah (swt)

    All Praise is due to Allah, We praise Him and we seek help from Him. We ask forgiveness

    from Him. We repent to Him; and we seek refuge in Him from our own evils and our own

    bad deeds. Anyone who is guided by Allah, he/she is indeed guided; and anyone who has

    been left astray, will find no one to guide him/her. I bear witness that there is no god but

    Allah, the Only One without any partner; and I bear witness that Muhammad (peace be upon

    him) is His servant, and His messenger.

    Islam is the religion of peace and a Muslim should be a peace activist. Islam is against

    oppression and any unfair violence. Islam is against terrorism. As I have repeatedly said

    earlier: this pen is my gun and these words are my bullets, I fight by these weapons against

    oppression to promote peace.

    In Islam there is no any divisions of radicalists or extremists and moderates, we have

    only one Islam. We cannot call any one Moderate Muslim as such a thing does not exist inIslam. I am neither an extremist nor a moderate, I am just a Muslim, a Muslim who tries to

    follow the Holy Quran and the Sunnah of prophet Muhammad (sws).

    A New Religion after Islam

    A new religion was created by Mushriks to be exchanged and replaced with Islam. The

    mission was given to the Munafiqs, they did their best to pretend they were Muslims and they

    introduced this new religion as Islam, within the Muslim community in both Muslim and

    non-Muslim countries. Since there were many similarities between Islam and this new

    religion (same book, same prophet, same name etc.) many ignorant people were deceived and

    they believed in it and they thought that this was Islam. The Munafiqs were successful in

    their mission to pose the new religion as Islam because they claimed they believed in the

    Holy Quran and Prophet Mohammad (sws) and because the name of the new religion was

    Moderate Islam.

    Despite many similarities between the new religion of Moderate Islam and the religion of

    Islam but these two are completely two different religions because some of the necessary

    Islamic rules have been denied by the new religion of Moderate Islam. It was not difficult

    to convince some ignorant people who do not know much about the Holy Quran and the

    Sunnah of prophet (sws) to exchange this new religion with their previous one. It is not only

    ignorant people who accepted this new religion out of the lack of knowledge about Islam,

    there are also some people who prefer to have a more comfortable life and to cooperate with

    Mushriks, these are the second group of Munafiqs who received the new religion by the firstgroup of the Munafiqs and they accepted the new religion not because of the lack of

    knowledge about Islam but for their own unlawful interests. According to the Holy Quran, if

    we denounce one verse or one rule of the Holy Quran we are not Muslim. The new religion

    has denounced some of the necessary rules of Islam, the Mushriks who created this new

    religion could not denounce those necessary rules directly and openly otherwise there

    wouldnt succeed much to pose it as Islam, therefore they decided to deny some of the

    necessary rules of Islam indirectly and gently for example: When they want to deny a

    rule from the Holy Quran they cannot say that there is not any verse in the Holy Quran about

    4

    5/7

    that particular rule, they admit the existence of the verse then they try to interpret it

    differently and as a result the Islamic rule will be denounced.

    It is not permissible to use the name of Muslim or Islam for this new religion and its

    followers although they have chosen such a name for that. A member of the new religion of

    Moderate Islam is not a Muslim, is a Mushrik, and it is not permissible to call them

    Muslim or Moderate Muslim. This new religion has mosques around the world, it is

    Haram to make prayer in their mosques, and regarding all other Islamic rules they should be

    treated as Mushrik. However, the harm of these Mushriks on Islam is much more than other

    groups of Mushriks who are not members of the new religion. It is permissible to associate

    with them or attend their mosque if you intend to do so for advising them to the right path.

    However, in such case if you pray following their Imam your prayer is invalid and you

    should repeat it.

    How to Avoid the Confusion?

    I have been asked questions, something similar to the following questions, I write the

    questions and answers here in case some Muslims have the same questions:

    1. Few Shaykhs have denounced a Muslim group and thats why I thought they are not

    the right Muslims and I have also denounced those Muslims. I am confused, how can

    we realise which Muslims are on the right path?

    2. I thought some Muslims were wrong because I heard that a big Shaykh in UK had

    denounced them.

    3. I agree with you that those Muslims are right, but I am very confused because I see

    that the majority of the Imams are denouncing them.

    4. I am a Shia, I agree with you that those Muslims are following the Holy Quran, but

    its difficult for me to support them, they are not Shia.

    A Short Answer for all of the above questions:

    5

    6/7

    A. The measures to recognise who or what is right and wrong are The Holy Quran and

    the Sunnah of prophet (sws). However, if we face a hadith which is in contradictionwith the Holy Quran we should ignore it. So the main measure is the Holy Quran.

    B. When the majority of people believe in something it doesnt necessarily mean they

    are right. The Holy Quran has repeatedly informed us that the majority of people

    have gone to the wrong way. So if even 99 percent of the Imams say something but

    the Holy Quran says differently we must ignore those Imams and follow the Holy

    Quran. To see that usually the majority has been on the wrong way I refer you to

    the Holy Quran, Chapter 2 Verse 100, Chapter 7 Verse 102, Chapter 12 Verses 103

    and 106, Chapter 16 Verse 83, Chapter 17 Verse 89, Chapter 23 Verse 70, Chapter 25

    Verses 44 and 50, Chapter 26 Verses 8, 67,103, 139, 158, 174 and 223, Chapter 27

    Verse 73, Chapter 30 Verses 6 and 42, Chapter 34 Verses 28, 36 and 41, Chapter 36

    Verse 7, Chapter 37 Verse 71, Chapter 40 Verses 57 and 59, Chapter 41 Verse 4,

    Chapter 43 Verse 78 and Chapter 44 Verse 39.

    C. After any prophet, many priests and clerics, slowly during the time have misguided

    people due to different reasons such as having fear from people rather than having

    fear only from Allah (swt), considering their own benefits, cooperating with the

    governors etc. I refer you to the Holy Quran, Chapter 9 Verses 31 and 34 and Chapter

    5 Verses 44 and 63. After Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) also, like other

    prophets (peace be upon them) same thing has happened and Many Muslim clerics

    misguiding Muslims to the different direction that the Holy Quran has instructed us

    especially when the topic is related to power and politics.

    D. Regardless of what school of thought within Islam we are following, whether it is a

    Hanafi, Hanbali, Maleki, Shafeee or Jafari school, we are obliged to follow the truth

    and support Muslims even if they are not from our school of thought. If you are from

    the Jafari school, you should condemn Shia when you see them going against the

    Holy Quran, and you should support Muslims from other schools of thought when

    you see them following the Holy Quran. Remember that the main measure is the Holy

    Quran not your relationship with a school of thought, your nationality background,

    your community, your family etc. Secondly if you are following the Jafari school of

    thought you should be careful about some wrong ideas that during the history has

    6

    7/7

    been added by some clerics who had been exaggerated about some ideas which are

    against the Holy Quran and the Sunnah of prophet Muhammad (sws), also you needto avoid the name of shia when you are asked what is your religion you should

    answer Islam, you cannot use any other name than Islam, and you should be careful

    not to divide the religion to the sects, I refer you to the Holy Quran Chapter 6 Verse

    159 and Chapter 30 Verse 32. And thirdly you should avoid anything which cause

    disunity amongst Muslims especially at this sensitive time that the Musriks and

    Munafiqs are doing their best that Muslims not to be united. I refer you to the Holy

    Quran Chapter 3 Verse 103 and 105.
