Sister Yvonne Ridley is probably trying to do something for a good cause however she has said strange things like brother Mabsoot said.
I had a discussion with my brother the other day about how sister Ridley had condemn certain renown Islamic scholars for not doing enough. In this time and age where the west dominates the world with its military might, I wonder whether sister Ridley remembers that if a certain Muslim nation which publicly disagree with the west and utilise purely Islamic rulings in their country, they are targeted and eventually invaded. I don't see any Muslim nation come to their defence.
The Zionist regime with their western lackies will use the utmost influence to overthrow those Muslim nations, if not create chaos by funding extremist groups to instill revolt.
There's a time to speak out and there's a time to keep quiet. There's a time to fight and a time to be patient. We don't want all our top scholars to be behind prisons for voicing out their frustration. For that matter is'nt it wiser to stay under the radar but at the same time use our knowledge to call more people to Islam. Throughout history, Islam had spread the fastest during peace time not during wartime, so lets not change that.
Remember Muslim nations are at its weakest point in this age thus no one will help another nation when they are in trouble. Let Islam grow and take root first around the world once again. We need to have the upper hand on the negotiating table when dealing with the Zionist and the west. To achieve that requires lots of patience and dedication not based on anger or on a whim.
