Those who declare elections and voting in the UK to be ‘haram’, do so due to a fundamental belief they hold, that Muslims do not belong in this society.

During the current climate of economic downturn and uncertainty, the British public do not want to see our politicians grandstanding and trying to score political points over one another.

Ramadan is once again with us. A noble guest, which comes with much benefit, and blesses those fortunate ones with much to be happy about.

This year in the UK fasting can be as long as 14 hours! For some, including my generation, this is the longest time we have ever fasted. So naturally it will be challenging, difficult.

The question of "free-mixing" over the last decade or two has got a bit out of hand I think. Some self-righteous and self-pious men are using this to exclude women from society. Segregation is not a concept, which is compatible with Islam. I cannot imagine where in the Qur'an and Sunnah it encourages or orders that women should always be out of sight; never to be heard as equals; never to be able to contribute their God-given abilities to better their society and communities; never to be able to take on tasks which may take them away from their homes; or should I say kitchens to be precise?

I approached a mosque in east London recently to find some young men arguing. I thought I should find out what was happening. It turns out that a group of them were shouting and hurling abuse at the mosque for being 'stooges of the kuffar' (non-believers) and 'not doing their duty' to re-establish the Khilafah (Islamic State).
