It had recently been reported that a document outlining a “Muslim takeover” of Birmingham schools had been leaked and that the Birmingham City Council was and is currently investigating it. The media capitalised on this perfect opportunity to reinforce and accord the notion of the fifth columner status to the Muslim Minority of Britain.
This is expected from the media, as has been seen in the past. However what really disgusted me were the responses from some Muslims, the armchair holier-than-thou keyboard warriors, hitting to the social media and declaring this an “embarassment” and calling those Muslims who are supposedly behind it, “nutters”. This despite the BBC report clearly stating,
“We still don’t know whether it’s genuine or a fake”
I do not need to delve into the inherent stupidity of such judgments against fellow Muslims. Allah Almighty states clearly in the Qur’an,
O you who have believed, if there comes to you a disobedient one with information, investigate, lest you harm a people out of ignorance and become, over what you have done, regretful. (49:6)
I now refer you to Tahir Alam’s press release concerning the matter.
