Islam Serious Problem

More From Tariq Ramadan

It's perfectly ok that there are certain people who do not accept islam at all. therefore, to announce that i am a muslim can rub some people the wrong way. but my aim is to show that those governments that violate the rights of people by invoking the name of islam have been misusing islam. they violate these rights and then seek refuge behind the argument that islam is not compatible with freedom and democracy. but this is basically to save face. in fact, i'm promoting democracy. and i'm saying that islam is not an excuse for thwarting democracy.
People Islam Democracy
Anti-islamist muslims - who wish to live modern lives, unencumbered by burqas, fatwas and violent visions of jihad - are on the defensive and atomized. however eloquent, their individual voices cannot compete with the roar of militant islam's determination, money (much of it from overseas) and violence. as a result, militant islam, with its west-phobia and goal of world hegemony, dominates islam in the west and appears to many to be the only kind of islam.
Determination Voice Goal
I won't be a party to a conspiracy to mobilize the arabs against the persians. only the forces of colonialism benefit from such a conspiracy. i won't be a party to a conspiracy that splits islam into two - shiite islam and sunni islam - mobilizing sunni islam against shiite islam.
Party Two Islam
I don't find any difference between islam and islamic fundamentalists. i believe religion is the root, and from the root fundamentalism grows as a poisonous stem. if we remove fundamentalism and keep religion, then one day or another fundamentalism will grow again. i need to say that because some liberals always defend islam and blame fundamentalists for creating problems. but islam itself oppresses women. islam itself doesn't permit democracy and it violates human rights.
Believe Islamic Rights
It’s a mistake to blame islam, a religion 14 centuries old, for the evil that should be ascribed to militant islam, a totalitarian ideology less than a century old. militant islam is the problem, but moderate islam is the solution.
Mistake Evil Islam
The iranian people were converted to islam not very much longer after the conquest of the arab world by islam, but they refused to adopt the arabic language, and it's a great point of pride to them that persian culture and the persian language and persian literature survived the conversion to islam. and the conversion to islam also was for most of them not the sunni majority form, but the shia one. so there's a great discrepancy between iranian society and many other of what we think of as arab muslim states and systems.

Pride Knights
Let your actions always speak for you, but be forever on guard against the terrible traps of false pride and conceit that can halt your progress. the next time you are tempted to boast, just place your fist in a full pail of water, and when you remove it, the hole remaining will give you a correct measure of your importance.
Pride Giving Water
'being green' is commendable, but i hope that people don't take too much pride and self-adoration because they shut off the water when they brushed their teeth. the truth of the matter is, conservation alone will do little to save our planet.
Pride Self People
Yes, pride is a perpetual nagging temptation. keep on knocking it on the head, but don't be too worried about it. as long as one knows one is proud, one is safe from the worst form of pride.
