RE: [ALOCHONA] Torture on female student DU : Why HR , fenminist Irine , Maleka, s kamal C silent no

Mr. Turkman:

Peace and blessing be upon you!

 

Your long and winded explanation of pronunciation for the word Muslim is pointless and waste of time.  As a forum participant we have better things to do.  I concur with Br. Azizul Haque’s take on this issue.  Obviously, you have plenty of time in your hand, which most of us don’t, to read or write something this long and worthless.  Although I do not know Mr. Azizul Haque personally, I regard him highly and consider him a wise and intelligent man who we all can learn from.  Please remember that “Muslim” is an Arabic word and there’s no exact way of spelling it and this spelling as close as it gets.  Therefore, let’s end our argument there.

No offense intended!

 

Respectfully submitted,

Sir,

I went abroad for higher studies but all my cousins went to DU also and now their next  generation is studying there. I'm sure Bangladesh would never become Pakistan but please tell me, why there's so much corruption if all are Pious Moslims?

 

Why I write Muslim wrong or Moslim?

Because no children in USA, U.K., Canada, New Zealand etc think it should be pronounced Muslim after they are told the correct pro-nunciation. They think, it should be written Moslim including my own children born and raised USA.

 

If you insist you are right, please find me a word in English Dictionary were 'U' sounds like 'O' as 2nd letter, where 3rd letter is 'S' ...!

There are only a few words, where 'U' sounds 'O' or 'OO' like Put, Pull, Bush, Push, Full, Bull etc. There are a lot words, we mis-pronounce in the Sub Continent replacing sound of full 'U' (yoo or you sound) with double 'O' wrongfully like in Dude, Rude, Stupid, Flute, Delute, etc. 

 

You see, nobody pronounces Musharraf right here because 'Mush' is a word and it has no sound of 'O' in it. The same is true with all names, where we have used 'U' for sound of 'O'. 'Mullaah' is pronounced without any sound of 'O' in it because 'Mull' is a word and it has no sound of 'O' in it. Where the hell you people are adding an 'H' in the end is a mystery to me because in Arabic this word has no 'H' in the end.

 

Mullah is a word of Arabic that means Sail Boat Guy, not Mollaa. Since there's no word in English that starts with 'Qur' or in similar fashion, 'Quran' is being pronounced 'Qarane' here. without an 'O' sound. Write is Qoraan, and find them pronouncing it correctly all the time. Are we in to some kind of stupid game of making Westerners pronounce our words wrong, sir as an essential part of Islam?
If so, please provide me the qoutes proving your point in Qoraan or Hadith ...!]

Otherwise, please tell me, why as a Moslim I have to keep being embarassed of stupid things like these in gatherings of English Language Ph. D's, being one of them?

Mr. Turkman:
 
I am sorry but your letters are in most of the times extremely confusing and entails some previous grudges which require explaining as you intend the letters to be read by many. You also do not respond to constructive and data based responses to your letters and your letters are in most of the times based on irrational generalisations. I am now confident and as I had mentioned in my last letter that most likely you are an Indian national as your repeated spellings of Moslim (sometimes Moslem) suggest. Can you explain the picture a bit further? As an ex-Dhaka University student and a lawyer I cannot jump to conclusions about any fanaticism like you alwasy do. I do not support Hindu destroying Babri msoque and the so called Indian secularist Government and the people who had voted VJP to power remaining silent about it and I also do not support any form of atrocity in the name of religious fundamentalism. Bangladeshis will never vote any fanatic power like in India or in Pakistan but we are pious Muslims. If the atrocities were committed, then a full investigation should follow and you are right the Advisor should act. Pls refrain from antagonising and aggravating issues with foregone conclusions. Freedom of speech should be exercised diligently.

How can they say anything?

All of them are Moslims and this is Islam in action in Dhaka University.
