Re: Troubles of Taslima Nasreen http://www.mukto-mona.com/new_site/mukto-mona/muk-forums.htm I thank Mr. Akbar Hussain for his detailed and lucid response to my questions. He has stated in it how he was able to convince a Muslim with the problem he was going to face at his workplace if he persisted on finding some time and a place to worship during his working hours. This is a good example, which he wants others to follow while talking to the Muslims. I think Mr. Hussain succeeded in his attempt due to the fact that he and his subject live in a different world. It would, however, have been a different scenario had he tried to do this with a Muslim in I intend to write a detailed response to Mr. Hussain's suggestion, but before doing that, I would respectfully like to ask him: You have written: She {Taslima}wanted something overnight without realizing the actual hurdles on the way to reform a system which has been hijacked by the most reactionary Islamic clerics.] Would you, Mr. Hussain, please explain what you meant by saying,' … a system which has been hijacked by the most reactionary Islamic clerics'? Are you saying that what the reactionary clerics say and preach is their invention? What is that system that they have hijacked? Will it be possible for a handful of reformers to reach a billion Muslims, when they are spread all over the world, speaking hundred of languages? And last but not the least, what you think the clerics should say or preach to the Muslims and on the basis of what document? Regards, Mohammad Asghar
