“Defend Islam” Rally Unable to Stand Up to Rain
The rain in Kuala Lumpur falls mainly on the Ummah. Malaysian rains are on the heavy side. But they’re not so heavy that genuinely committed activists shouldn’t be able to stand up to it.

Malaysia Prime Minister: “If we want to make Islam less hated, we need to find out what wrong we have done”
“If we want to make Islam less hated, we need to find out what wrong we have done, although we would like to say we have done no wrong.” “Islam teaches its followers not to indulge in violence but ‘we are not following those teachings’, he said.” Yeah, it’s a real head-scratcher. If anyone has […]
