Re: [mukto-mona] Re: Shafi of Hefojat Islam - contradicting tradition




 

সেক্যুলারিজমের নতুন সংজ্ঞা হচ্ছে সকল ধর্ম, সকল সম্প্রদায় ও সকল মতবাদের প্রতি সম্মান প্রদর্শন করা। কারণ প্রতিটি ধর্ম ও মতবাদের অনুসারী মানুষ আছে। এই সংজ্ঞা না মানলে "সবার উপরে মানুষ সত্য" প্রতিষ্ঠা করা যাবে না। নাস্তিক্যবাদও একটি ধর্ম, সেই ধর্মের অনুসারীদেরও সম্মান করতে হবে। কোনো ধর্ম, কোনো মতবাদ আপনি অপছন্দ করতে পারেন, কিন্তু অসম্মান করতে পারেন না।

 

Farida Majid We HAVE to let people know more about secularism -- not exactly a নতুন সংজ্ঞা -- but something we practiced for centuries in Bengal and in greater India (Muslim India & Buddhist India before that). Currently  European Union is defining Secularism as "Freedom of Religion and Faith". Funny thing is that the more they're delving in its definition, and an account of its practice, the more they're coming up with its precedence in India.


Quazi Johirul Islam Freedom of religion and faith that is what we should start practicing to build tolerance and respect.
Farida Majid And the First thing we have to do is to get rid of "Rashtro dharmo Islam" -- something we never had in the mighty Mughal Empire in India. Something that our Prophet Muhammad consciously avoided having in the Madina Charter in 622 A D.
Quazi Johirul Islam
Quazi Johirul Islam I agree with you, an impartial platform must be ensured by the state for all kind of people.
Farida Majid - Plain & simple FACT -- the concept of a State Religion originated in Christian Europe. India has not had a State Religion since days of Emperor Ashoke in 236 B C.  Islam shunned the idea of a State religion at the very onset of its establishment as a religious community in 622 A D.  The powerful Muslim Kings and Muslim Emperors of India did not impose a State religion.  Emperor Akbar floated the idea of Deen-i-Ilahi in a good-will gesture, but nothing concrete came out of it.
Farida Majid

Farida Majid Tell me why suddenly, in Bangladesh, in the 21st century, we want to go backwards, not in our own history, but backwards in European history, and establish an old, outdated Christian European idea ? ? ? Rashtro dharmo Islam? It has no root in any logic, Islamic religious history  or local  tradition.

Precisely, Shah Deeldar, you are absolutely right. These Jamaatis and apologists are master hypocrites and frauds. If they don't like secularism, they can remove themselves from these countries and move to their holes. No wonder, Donald Trump and others are targeting them.
These dimwit guys are very badly educated. They can't think properly, they can't write properly. Only thing they can do is abuse others in indecent language and use vulgar words.

These congenital Jamatis love to see their civil and religious rights to be sacrosanct in secular societies while they would not  extend such rights to their fellow minorities. That is the grand hypocrisy! These Haramzadas have no love for Trump, Le Pen or Geert Wilders. The reason is of course obvious! 
People who do not appreciate secularism in a foreign country, why not  they remove themselves to their non-secular gutters rather than keep kissing infidels' butts?

I am surprised Ranu Choudhury did not hear about "Secularism" before 1972. Was he not born before 1972 or was he on another planet before that year?

FM was referring to the Two Nation Theory (TNT) that culminated in two nations in 1947. This TNT was not invented in 1947. The TNT is now totally discredited and despised. Yes, the TNT had spawned into Three Nations and Bangladesh is the beneficiary.

But even the ardent Pakistani agents and supporters would not argue that West Pakistani criminals and Punjabi thugs wanted to impose Urdu in the then East Pakistan in order to create Bangladesh. Bangladesh came into being, not as a result of a grand design or a historical strategy, but as a result of geopolitical machination. In this respect I fully agree with Ranu Chowdhury that even Sheikh Mujibur Rahman did not anticipate or even venture to utter the word "Bangladesh" before 7 March 1971. If he or anybody else would have done that, that person would have been imprisoned immediately for treason or even hanged. That was the regime we lived in. Those people who now cry for Pakistan should remember that.

Is it? Where, which sector she fought in 1971? In Agartala or chokirtola? Some idiots keep crowing that people fought to establish in Bangladesh "Secularism", a word no Bengalis came across before January 10, 1972. Now another (you know what) comes to say that the fight was against the 
IDEA of Pakistan -- against the 2-nation theory of 1947. 

Is it there in Mujib's 6-Points? Has anyone heard it during the 1969 movement? During the 1970 election campaign? During any of the talks between Mujib and the Pakistani junta in January-March 1971? Mujib and Awami League participated in the 1970 elections on the basis of President Yahya's LFO which had guarantee clauses for the unity of Pakistan. Mujib's March 7, 1971 speech ended with Pakistan Zindabad. Mujib negotiated with the junta until March 25 for unity of Pakistan. So where does the contrary idea about Two Nation Theory (TNT)show up?

Shahadat Bhai put it rightly when he said: "We fought for power share and justice. As a matter of Lahore resolution got fully implemented two nation theory after emancipation of Bangladesh." That is, it is because of  TNT, we won Bangladesh. Otherwise, where would Bangladesh be? With India? In the Bay of Bengal?
I am no fan of TNT, but it was necessary for the Muslims in India in 1947. Even Nehru pushed for it. Mujib as a student leader fought for it. 

FM should go back to basis history classes before making such idiotic comments.

The statement above fully characterizes Ms. Bua. Her statement, "In 1971 we bravely fought against, and WON the fight against the IDEA of Pakistan -- against the 2-nation theory of 1947.", is totally a false statement. We fought for power share and justice. As a matter of Lahore resolution got fully implemented two nation theory after emancipation of Bangladesh. 

The true shall prevail, the falsehood will be destroyed by their own activity and actions.

Razzak bhai, don,t you be worried on what people like 'Bua' says. 

Where is Mr. Deeelder?

Ms. FM,
   Your statement "In 1971 we bravely fought against, and WON the fight against the IDEA of Pakistan -- against the 2-nation theory of 1947."

Can you check the history and find out who was behind the 2-nation theory and why? Current status of Bangladesh is the answer to it.
