‫أول وقف من نوعه في أستراليا‬

“PARENTS WAQF”

First Waqf of its kind in Australia ‫أبناء المرحوم‬ ‫إسماعيل عيسى‬ ‫يوقفون بناية بأكملها بقيمة‬ ‫ مليون دوالر‬8 ‫صدقة جارية عن والديهم‬

The children of the late Ismail Issa (May Allah have mercy upon him) donate an entire building, as a Waqf (endowment), on behalf of their parents as a continuous charity.

The children of the late Ismail Issa (May Allah have mercy upon him) donate an entire building, as a Waqf (endowment), in the heart of the Arab and Islamic populated suburb of Lakemba, Sydney.

Not only did they donate it as it currently exists, comprising of 3 levels, rather they insisted on demolishing and reconstructing it after having acquired all the necessary approvals and permits from the council so that the new building will include 5 levels.

They have engaged in this noble deed seeking reward from Allah,

the Almighty and as display of goodness towards their parents.

The children, May Allah make them among the righteous, have apologized from both publishing their photos publically, and making any formal statement, this is due to their integrity and sincerity, however, they would like to communicate 3 points through “Al Wasat” newspaper.

Firstly: The greatest blessing that Allah has blessed us with is Islam, It is through the noble teachings of Islam that we were motivated to do what we have done. The fundamental principle of wealth, is that it should be dedicated to the service of this religion after the individual has used what he needs from it.

Secondly: We thank Awqaf Australia for giving us the

opportunity to be part of to take on this great project, we ask Allah the Almighty to accept.

Thirdly: We call upon the wealthy Muslims to come forward in service of their communities and to what shall benefit them in the hereafter when they meet their lord, the almighty. lastly, we ask Allah, the Almighty to accept this blessed endowment from the Issa family, and that he replaces it for them with betterment in this life and the hereafter, and that he rewards them with the greatest of rewards.

“And for that, let the competitors compete”.

Awqaf is plural for the Arabic word Waqf, which means to withhold an asset in perpetuity (indefinitely) for a specific charitable purpose, usually in accordance with the desire of the donor. Beneficiaries can be of multiple types, such as the needy and poor, Islamic institutions (e.g. mosques, organisations), educational, social and medical facilities (hospitals, schools and universities, orphanages, wells), and advocating Islam, amongst others. Beneficiaries can also include the donor himself, his family members or any parties nominated by them for a pre-specified duration (e.g. life of the donor or his offspring).

2015 ICOM Eid Festival

The Islamic College of Melbourne held their annual Eid festival earlier this term. There was a huge turn out and turned out to be a great success. Massive thank you to all staff, who organised the event in the weeks prior and also who helped out on the actual day. Without you the festival would not have gone as smoothly as it did. We have had a lot of feedback from parents, stall holders as well as students on the organisation and improvements from previous years, all with positive comments.

On behalf of all ICOM staff, we hope you and your family had a blessed Eid.

Labor engages with arabic media to connect with community MEDIA RELEASE NSW Opposition Leader Luke Foley and Opposition Whip Shaoquett Moselmane hosted an Arabic media roundtable in Lakemba to discuss a range of issues close to the heart of Sydney’s diverse Arabic community.

Mr Foley and Mr Moselmane, who is the Convenor of Arabic Friends of Labor, were also joined by Member for Lakemba Jihad Dib, Shadow Minister for Multiculturalism Sophie Cotsis, Member for Prospect Hugh McDermott, Member for Cessnock Clayton Barr and Lynda Voltz MLC. Today’s roundtable acknowledged Australian Labor’s motion at the 2015 National Conference to put Australia on the path of recognising Palestine as a state.

The roundtable also focused on the importance of language in aged care facilities to service the increasingly large number of elderly immigrants.

Labor this year launched a Multicultural Taskforce to identify and engage with issues facing Sydney’s growing multicultural community.

Quotes attributable to NSW Opposition Leader Luke Foley “Labor is proud of its longstanding commitment to harmony, and grateful

to the Arabic community for their rich contribution to our state’s multicultural fabric.”

“Today’s roundtable – alongside Labor’s Multicultural Taskforce – is a practical way for political leaders to speak to community members who are all too left out of the mainstream media.”

“I look forward to an ongoing dialogue with the Arabic community through its media. I want to thank the media for their interest and assure them Labor continues to work for their communities.”

Quotes attributable to Arabic Friends of Labor Convenor Shaoquett Moselmane “Frank and open consultation with the Arabic community is one of the priorities of Luke Foley’s Labor team.”

“This dialogue will continue throughout the term, and I look forward to further constructive meetings with the community.”

Labor Makes Progress on Palestine APAN Media Release The Australia Palestine Advocacy Network welcomes the motion that was passed at the ALP National Conference regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. In particular, it applauds its recognition that any resolution of the conflict must be based on 1967 borders with agreed land swaps, a timeframe to end Israeli occupation and an agreement on a solution to Palestinian refugee issues.

“It’s a significant step forward,” said APAN’s President George Browning.

“President Obama has been saying that the borders between Israel and Palestine should be based on 1967 lines since 2011.

This brings Labor much closer to the international consensus on the issue.”

The Netanyahu government emphatically refuses to consider any return to its 1967 borders, insisting that Israel maintain control over all of Jerusalem, the settlement blocs and the Jordan Valley as part of any future peace agreement.

APAN also welcomes the motion’s call for Israel to cease all settlement expansion in the Occupied Territories.

“This is a very important development,” Browning said. “The purpose of Israel’s entire settlement enterprise is to

prevent a two-state solution by creating irreversible facts on the ground. The RuddGillard government recognised that the settlements were illegal and supported UN resolutions condemning settlement expansion – a move that has been reversed by the Abbott government. I’m encouraged that Labor is standing its ground on this issue.”

Browning noted that the motion had failed to recognise Palestinian statehood but noted that it held out the possibility that Labor might do so in the future if there is no progress in the next round of the peace process.

“The truth is that there is no ‘next round of the peace process’,” Browning said.

“The last peace negotiations broke down more than a year ago over Israel’s refusal to honour its promise to release Palestinian prisoners or halt settlement expansion.

Since then, even the Americans seem to have given up.”

Overall, however, Browning says that he is happy with the motion.

“In politics you rarely get all that you want. I understand that Australia’s Israel lobby has been working very hard behind the scenes to block any progress. The motion opens the door to the recognition of Palestinian statehood and that’s a positive.”

Ending the Cycle of Minority Blame

Governor General Sir Peter Cosgrove, Keysar Trad, Dr. Anas Natfaji

By Br. Keysar Trad Prominent Victorian lawyer Julian Burnside wrote: “Right now, Islamophobia is the new antisemitism, and it is dangerous.”

Some Islamophobic comments published in the mainstream media by commentators who seem to have become untouchable: “A de facto world war is under way and it has everything to do with Islam.

It is not thousands of lone wolfs. It is not un-Islamic conduct. It involves thousands of Muslims acting on what they believe is their religious duty to subjugate non-believers, as outlined in the Koran.

And the problem is growing, not contracting.”

(11 Jan 15) In another article he blames Australians of a Middle Eastern Background for the Cronulla Riots: “Cronulla, where after yet another assault thousands of people demonstrated about the years of abuse and intimidation from a disconnected, racist, violent, moronic and sexually dangerous subculture.”

(13 Jan 2006).

Another untouchable writer opens a 14 July 2015 blog post with: “You might get the impression that many Muslim leaders are treating our police as the real enemy in this battle against Islamist terrorism.

“Whatever the truth of their motivation, such leadership is grotesquely irresponsible and another disturbing sign that Islam may be incompatible with a pluralist and secular country such as ours.”

In an article dated 9 April 2015, this man completely misrepresents a

University of Melbourne Curriculum study with the following: “What an offensive corruption of our curriculum. Children are to be taught the fabled best of Islam and the imagined worst of Australia to blind us all to the real challenges Islam poses even to a country that’s peacefully integrated the many more Buddhists here.”

He closes this long article with: “Only a fool could not see a problem in importing more people from a faith that sets many so apart from, and at odds to, the culture of their host country.”

The same commentator excuses or attempts to rationalise the cold blooded murder by Anders Brievik of 93 Norwegians as being a result of his becoming unhappy about Muslims, he wrote on 25 July 2011: “Some are left deeply wounded and enraged by a sense of powerlessness and rejection. Which means this is more likely than anything else I’ve seen to be a clue to this explosion of murderous rage:” Australia’s most powerful shock-jock utters this selection of comments about Lebanese Australians over the course of four days towards the end of April 05: “These mongrels.”

“Lebanese males in their vast numbers not only hate our country and heritage.”

“They have no connection to us.”

“They simply rape, pillage and plunder a nation that’s taken them in.”

“What did we do as a nation to have this vermin infest our shores?”

“Tell me we don’t have a national security problem in the making.”

“Take the gloves off, and make life a collective hell for these bastards and their followers …”

Nearly eight months later, he or his callers said on air: “Middle Eastern Grubs” “My suggestion is to invite one of the biker gangs to be present in numbers at Cronulla railway station when these Lebanese thugs arrive, it would be worth the price of admission to watch these cowards scurry back onto the

train for the return trip to their lairs … Australians old and new shouldn’t have to put up with this scum.”

And the following exchange: “shock-jock: Yeah, good on you John.

Caller John: Now, ah, my grandfather was an old digger and he used to say to me when we were growing up “Listen, shoot one, the rest will run!”

Shock-jock: (laughs) Caller John: Right?

Shock-jock: (still laughing)” Rather than standing up for the vilified minorities, both the Prime Minister and the leader of the opposition come to the shock-jock’s defence after ACMA found that this shock-jock “was likely to have encouraged violence and vilification of Australians of Lebanese and Middle Eastern background.”

Not to be outdone, the Abbott government promised to introduce a repeal of the racial vilification laws (a move named after one of Australia’s leading Islamophobe). The Abbott government later dropped this issue in return for more draconian security measures.

Back to the Cronulla Riots, those I have quoted along with other commentators, continued to attack Middle-Eastern Youth– and the system followed suit, ME youth getting heavy-handed treatment whilst the rioters received very light treatment.

An Example from 15 December 2005: “Shock-Jock 2: We Australians do not have to apologise for anything. My anger is reserved for the politicians and bureaucrats who conspired to bring in people who were guaranteed to be incompatible and have demonstrated that in every country into which they have moved.

“Caller Francis: Absolutely. Look, I couldn’t agree with you more.

“Shock-jock 2: Many of them have parents who were first cousins, whose parents were first cousins, because of the culture - it’s not a religious thing, it doesn’t say this in the Koran - but it’s a cultural thing for some part of the world to have parents who are very closely related. The result of this is inbreeding, the result of which is uneducationable people, and very low IQ.” Columnist Michael Brull highlighted some of the impact of Islamophobic commentary: “A man threatened to set a Muslim woman on fire. When she looked to another man for help, he called her a terrorist.

“Another man entered a mosque and threatened to hit a woman with a chair. He also threw cement bags at the mosque. Another Muslim woman was physically attacked and called a “f-------terrorist”. Another Muslim woman was attacked by a large man, who told her to “go back to where you came from”. His physical assault broke her arm.”

Of course there are many more attacks on Muslims, too many to list in this summary of my speech. As these attacks occur – the call is always for Muslims to dissolve to become inaudible and invisible into a white Australia Ideal.

They lay all the blame for Muslim discontent on Islam and Muslims – taking no responsibility for the hostile conditions they created which have silenced and forced many members

of the Muslim community to the margins making it difficult for many Muslims to find work or a clear sense of belonging.

They seem to be pushing for greater extremism than the assimilation demanded by Pauline Hanson, their commentary is profoundly antagonistic to Islam – and through that, Muslims become unassimilable or incapable of integrating into any majority Western country.

Comments such as: “The killing will go on because jihad is built into the fabric of Arab Islam.”and others quoted earlier make it very clear that there is very little room for Islam in such people’s worldview.

This fixation with Islam seems unquenchable Groups such as: The Q Society, Reclaim Australia, the ADL (Australian Defence League), Catch the Fire Ministries look like a neocrusade against Muslims and popular extremist columnists politicians have supported some of these groups.

We now have a parliamentary enquiry into Halal certification (which the senator instigating the enquiry referred to as a “racket”). The words Halal, Sharia (the corpus of Islamic teachings), Jihad ( the exertion of effort, the greatest of which is to speak up against tyranny) are increasingly used in a pejorative way in public discourse.

Minorities become easy targets when Othering goes unchecked. Othering is “The process of perceiving or portraying someone or something as fundamentally different or alien Another important tool in creating acquiescence to minority blame is “Projection”, projection is when one projects his own flaws or societal malaise onto others, you call them out for these flaws as if the flaws were not yours, but theirs. This is part of the problem – if Jihad is built into the fabric of Arab Islam, then what is built into the fabric of cultures that sees their nations going from one war to another under false or at best dubious pretexts? They project their violent expansionism by accusing Muslims of doing or trying to do or fantasising about doing the very thing that the dominant culture is doing. An example is the headline to the 8 Nov 13 blog by Australia’s most powerful columnist: “First off: our freedom restored to criticise the New Racism” The hard truths are never told, these are: 1 – The majority of asylum seekers from the Middle East or Afghanistan are here as a result of either foreign intervention through invasions or through the installation or backing of pliant dictatorial regimes.

2 – Some of our youths get involved in anti-social behaviour because they have fallen victim to the same antisocial behaviour that prevails amongst a section of mainstream youth – this

behaviour is not imported it already existed here. The gang rapes of 2000 are not imported, many women have suffered and continue to suffer from rape, violence and misogyny are also perpetrated by members of the dominant culture and have been so perpetrated for far too long.

The children of the recent wave of migrants didn’t introduce drugs into Australia, drugs had been sold by gangs long before migrant youths started to get drawn into the illicit trade.

Gang violence is not exclusive to a few migrant youths, gang violence existed long before migrant youths were introduced to it – the bikie shootout in 1984 on a street in the Sydney suburb of Milperra left 7 people dead.

Blaming minorities is the laziest and nastiest form of deflection. It transforms the dominant culture into a bully and ironically, the bully projects his crimes onto his victim through the use of Othering and other tools which the minority has limited means to address or against which to seek redress.

Little wonder that some of those who are “Othered” can start to feel like “the Other.”

This minority blame deprives the host/dominant society/culture from the best fruits of all its citizens (or residents) as it denies a section of citizens opportunities to harness their potential the same way others can.

On the pragmatic level, it is a crime against the very host culture by those warriors who claim to be protecting it and as long as minorities are denied the protections available to the rest of society, the chasm within society will increase, the mistrust will increase and racially motivated crimes will increase.

We need to move from this minority blame for our society to move forward, there has to be a very strong bipartisan approach at the political level. This is not about political correctness nor about curbing free speech. However, fanciful blame-shifting against the most vulnerable in society is not free speech, it is bullying, it is denialism and it is a betrayal of society.

After the bipartisan approach to protect the quality of life of all Australians, we need to ensure that anti-vilification laws are accessible, affordable and effective – In addition to these laws, the silent majority of the dominant culture needs to speak out.

I have heard phrases such as: the Chinese, the Greeks, the Italians, the Vietnamese or the Catholics had to go through this, now it is the turn of the Muslims. They talk as if this widespread minority vilification is some sort of an initiation ritual on the way to being accepted as Australian.

The reality is that vilification of each of these minorities is a shameful blight on our history as a nation, we should have learnt from the time we vilified the Afghan cameleers or the Chinese labourers that such vilification is not in the interest of Australia, but instead, our nation has a history of always projecting its problems on the latest minority to arrive at our shores and that unfortunately shows that we, the majority are not taking the most important lessons from our own history.

Border clearance advice for Hajj pilgrims The Department of Immigration and Border Protection 25 Aug 2015 The Department of Immigration and Border Protection recognises the importance of religious events such as the Hajj and the right to travel for such events.

Making the pilgrimage to Mecca is a joyous opportunity for travelling Muslim Australians.

We encourage anyone travelling to Saudi Arabia to perform Hajj to familiarise themselves with Australian border processes prior to travel.

Arriving at the airport All travellers should arrive no later than 2 hours prior to departure to allow enough time for check-in, border processing and any unexpected delays. After checking-in for your flight you should progress directly to border processing.

Border clearance We are committed to maintaining the security of our nation and screen all arriving and departing travellers.

When you are departing, have the following ready for clearance at the border: passport completed Outgoing Passenger Card boarding pass.

Before you arrive into or depart from Australia, Australian Border Force (ABF) officers may examine you and/or the items you are carrying.

Officers may inspect all baggage, goods and documents that you are travelling with at the time you arrive or depart Australia.

This includes electronic devices and their contents, such as mobile phones, tablets and laptops, and other storage devices.

ABF officers assess travellers based on border risk and will never stop individuals based simply on race, religion, ethnicity or travel destination. In all cases, ABF officers are expected to treat travellers with dignity and

respect.

Declaring cash or foreign currency There is no limit to the amount of cash or foreign currency you can bring into or out of Australia. However, if the total value is AUD$10,000 (or the foreign currency equivalent) or more, you must declare it at the Australian border.

This includes Australian dollars, foreign currency, or any combination of this, being carried on your person, in your baggage or if someone else is carrying it for you.

To declare you must: answer ‘Yes’ to the relevant questions on your Outgoing Passenger Card; and complete a Cross-Border Movement - Physical Currency (CBM-PC) reporting form, available from ABF officers at international airports.

Sharing money between people travelling with you to avoid reporting requirements is called ‘structuring’ and is against the law.

Know what is on your electronic devices It is an offence to bring into or take out of Australia, material that is offensive, or advocating violence in any form. This includes images or videos held on electronic devices that portray cruel and revolting acts, child pornography, and material that advocates or praises acts of terrorism.

By keeping images like this on your electronic devices such as a hard drive, computer or mobile phone, even if someone has sent them to you, you may be committing an offence.

Donation Myths and Misconceptions Research undertaken by the Organ and Tissue Authority reveals a number of common myths and misconceptions that are holding Australians back from deciding about or discussing organ and tissue donation.

Before making an informed decision about organ and tissue donation, it’s important that you ‘discover the facts.’To help, we’ve busted some of the most common organ and tissue donation myths, below.

Myth: It’s my choice – I don’t need to discuss it with my family Fact: Your family needs to know. They will be asked to confirm your decision.

They will be involved in each step of the donation process and be asked to provide vital health information – even if you have registered your decision.

If you’ve decided to become a donor, you need to discuss your decision to prepare your family so that they are comfortable being part of the process.

Myth: Organ and tissue donation is against my religion.

Fact: Almost all religions support organ and tissue donation as an act of compassion and generosity.

Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism and Judaism all support organ and tissue donation. Very few religions do not. Position statements from most major religions are available at www.donatelife.gov.au Australians need to know that the organ and tissue donation process can accommodate religious and cultural end of life requirements. Some religions or cultures may need the deceased to be buried within a certain time span of their death, and all efforts will be made to accommodate this.

Myth: I’m too old or not healthy enough to donate.

Fact: Age is not a barrier - people in their 70s and 80s have saved the lives of others through organ and tissue donation. You don’t have to be in perfect health. People who smoke, drink or don’t have a healthy diet can still donate. There’s every chance that some of your organs and tissues may be suitable for donation. The determining factors are where and how a person dies, and the condition of their organs and tissues. Don’t rule yourself out – count yourself in!

Myth: I’m not sure if I am registered and there is no way to check.

Fact: You can check and update (or register) your details on the Australian Organ Donor Register at donorregister.gov.au, call 1800 777 203 or visit your local Service Centre. In Australia you can donate your organs; heart, lungs, liver, kidneys and pancreas, and tissues;

heart valves and pericardium, corneal and eye tissue, bone and related musculoskeletal tissue and skin tissue. You can specify which organs and tissue you are willing to donate on the Australian Organ Donor Register.

Myth: I don’t have a Medicare number so I cannot register to become a donor.

Fact: You do not have to be an Australian citizen or have a Medicare number to register as an organ and tissue donor on the Australian Organ Donor Register. It is important that you discuss your donation decision with your next of kin, and that you ask and know their donation decision.

Myth: My organs and tissue will be used for research.

Fact: Organ donation is about helping save or improve other people’s lives.

Donated tissues and organs will never be used for medical research unless explicit written permission is given by your family.

Myth: Organ and tissue donation disfigures the body Fact: Organ donation is specialised surgery and does not disfigure the body. Organ and tissue retrieval is performed by highly skilled health professionals. The surgical incision made during the operation will be closed and covered as in any other operation and will not be visible beneath the person’s clothes. The donor’s body is always treated with dignity and respect.

Myth: If I have registered as a donor, doctors won’t try as hard to save my life Fact: The doctor’s first priority is always to save your life. Saving your life is the absolute priority of medical staff – health staff, doctors and nurses work incredibly hard to save people’s lives. Organ and tissue donation is only considered when it’s absolutely clear that the person has died or that death is inevitable, at which time the Australian Organ Donor Register will be checked.

Myth: Enough people become donors so I don’t need to think about it.

Fact: Donation is a rare event – only 1% of hospital deaths allow for organ donation. More than 1,600 people are on organ transplant waiting lists at any one time. They are counting on every potential donor having decided and discussed that decision with their

WORTHY CAUSES family.

One organ and tissue donor can transform and save the lives of many.

Most of these rare deaths are sudden and unexpected with the patient dying in a hospital Emergency Department or Intensive Care Unit on a ventilator.

To optimise every potential organ donation we need every Australian family to decide and discuss their donation decision with loved ones.

Myth: I can choose who will receive my organ and tissue donations.

Fact: Australia is a world leader for successful transplant outcomes.

Organs are allocated to transplant recipients in a fair, equitable process that takes no account of race, religion, gender, social status, disability or age - unless age is relevant to the organ matching criteria.

Waiting lists are managed by different groups according to the organ involved and the state or territory where the recipient is located. Australia has strict guidelines about the allocation of organs and tissues. The Transplantation Society of Australia and New Zealand (TSANZ) has developed guidelines for organ transplantation, Organ Transplantation from Deceased Donors: Consensus Statement on Eligibility Criteria and Allocation Protocols.

Myth: Organ and tissue trafficking is common in Australia.

Fact: Some people may have concerns about illegal organ trafficking, or have knowledge of this taking place in their home country. Treating human beings as a commodity for organ trade is illegal and will remain illegal in Australia.

In Australia, State and Territory laws criminalise the removal of organs for the trade or sale of the organs, or where there is no consent for the removal of the organs.

The Commonwealth’s organ trafficking laws criminalise the movement of people into, from or within Australia for the purpose of the unlawful removal of their organs.

No financial incentives for organ and/or tissue donation are able to be provided in Australia. Australian laws are grounded on the ethical concern that providing financial incentives for organ donation may lead to coercion and exploitation of the poor and other vulnerable groups.

DISCOVER the facts about organ and tissue donation DECIDE about becoming a donor DISCUSS your decision with the people close to you.

Boundless Plains

THE AUSTRALIAN MUSLIM CONNECTION

The Islamic Museum of Australia (IMA) has completed its first project documentary and photography book of an expedition, which will document the Muslim History in Australia that dates back to as early as the 18th Century to where it is now.

The book and film was launched by Senator Hon Kate Lundy and Yusuf Islam (Cat Steven’s) in May 2012.

Overview and Objectives of the Project The Islamic Museum of Australia will make a documentary of an expedition by four young Muslim Australians who go on a journey to discover and document the Muslim history of Australia. The documentary will include interviews with townspeople, academics, in areas of Australia, which have hosted Muslim communities and have a contribution to make to tell the story of Muslim history in Australia.

The documentary aims: • To educate Australians and people in other countries about the contribution made by Muslims to Australia, • To foster a sense of closeness and acceptance to Australia for young Australian Muslims and • To inform other countries about Australia’s Muslim past and promote tolerance in the Australian community.

The Islamic Museum of Australia owns the rights to the video and will air it at the Museum, events, school’s and also seek to have it aired in other countries around the globe, particularly partner countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and the countries of the Arab world.

The project accords with the Islamic Museum of Australia’s aim to foster community harmony and facilitate an understanding of the values and contributions of Muslims to Australian society. It will also highlight Australian historical links with the Malay Peninsula and Indonesian Archipelago.

The video contains filmed footage of rock paintings as old as 20,000

years and artifacts from remote Arnhem Land, which illustrate the interaction between Indonesian fishermen and the local Aboriginals that dates back pre-European settlement.

It also includes interviews with the 101 year old daughter of an Afghan cameleer and with aboriginal camel trainers who use the afghan language to train the camels and riders. Including other Afghan descendants today and covers Broome and the historical links with Malaysian Pearl Divers. Yusuf Islam song “Where in the World” features in the film.

Background The Muslim population in Australia is ethnically, linguistically, and culturally diverse—a mix from over 120 countries. Muslims have been visiting Australia and contributing to Australian culture and society for hundreds of years.

Muslim fishermen from Indonesia have visited Australian shores since the 18th century. They interacted with Aborigine populations, intermarried and shared culture and use Indonesian words in their language.

Islam immigrants stood shoulder to shoulder with their Australian countrymen during Australia’s pioneering days. Malay pearl fishers and Afghan cameleers brought their religion to Australia in the 19thth century. The first mosque in Australia was built of mud brick at Marree, South Australia in 1861. It was followed by other mosques built by the Afghan cameleers including the onewhich still stands in Bourke, built in the 1880s, Broken Hill and Australia’s first City Mosque.

Following the Second World War, the Muslim community in Australia expanded due to the post-war economic boom, which created employment opportunities and encouraged many European Muslims to migrate to Australia to seek a new life.

In 1975 another wave of immigration came from Lebanon resulting from the Lebanese Civil War. Lebanese Muslims now constitute the highest profile Muslim group in Australia, and

form the core of Australia’s Arab Muslim population.

Since the 1970’s Australian towns and cities with sizable Muslim populations have witnessed a change in streetscapes. Mosques and prayer rooms are now seen in public places, along with Islamic schools and halal food stores.

Islamic centers have also recently developed in Australia, offering the growing Muslim community facilities such as youth centres, sports, social activities and providing cultural advice for new arrivals.

The documentary, aired on TV in neighbouring countries,notably Indonesia and Malaysiawill serve as a useful means to raise awareness among these populations, of the historical links and positive contribution of Muslim to Australian development and of the diverse nature of Australian society.

Much of Australia’s broader population are unaware of the positive contributions made by Muslim Australians in diverse endeavours throughout Australia.

The unfavourable perception of Islam resulting from events of 11 September 2001and the 2005 Bali bombings have threatened Islam’s acceptance in modern Australian society.

Achieving the Objectives The documentary was made in two parts, which covered Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, SA, NT, WA has been filmed and is now in near complete production. Over 20,000km of vast terrain covered namely: Melbourne, Snowy Mountains, Bourke NSW, Broken Hill, Mareeba, Adelaide, Marree, Port Augusta, Alice Springs, Uluru, Darwin, Arnhem Land, Broome and Sydney. The participants in the documentary project are: Moustafa Fahour – Islamic Museum of Australia Founder and Board Member, his family came to Australia from Lebanon in late 1960’s and he has had a successful banking career in Australia. He is currently the founder & director of the Islamic Museum of Australia.

Ashraf Naim – General Manager, Islamic Museum of Australia.

Migrated to Australia at a young age and has been educated in Australia.

Peter Gould – An Australian who converted to Islam in his early 20’s and is a photographer and graphic designer.

Jehad Dabab– Producer and Director and production director of comedy TV program “Salam Café”.

He is also part of a rap group in Australia called the Brothahood, who have a popular following in Malaysia and Indonesia, as well as Australia.

History Column

When Opinion Formers are Mobilised for Good Bilal Cleland

ilal42@bigpond.com There is a major lesson for the whole Australian community in the attitude to Adam Goodes.

All independent authorities agreed that the recent sustained booing of Goodes, the outstanding Swans footballer, was motivated by race hatred. The only media voices raised in denial were the usual suspects, public friends of the Prime Minister, Bolt and Alan Jones.

Goodes dared to stand up for the rights of the indigenous community, using his status as a sporting giant and as 2014 Australian of the Year.

That was too difficult for those who believe that Aborigines should “know their place” as second class citizens.

That so many famous Australians denounced the attempted humiliation of Goodes, including actors, academics, legal luminaries and eventually the AFL, meant that it rapidly became socially unacceptable to maintain the insults. Even PM Abbott was forced to take a stand, albeit a rather weak one, against the booing. The result was seen on Saturday 8 August in the AFL game at Geelong.

Goodes was overwhelmingly cheered with only a few desultory and embarrassed boos from the alienated.

The Muslim community has also experienced bigotry and racism directed at it, but in different circumstances.

The First Gulf War, which followed the invasion of Kuwait by the Ba’athist regime of Iraq in 1990 led to a crisis for the Australian Muslim community. Attacks on Muslims and Arabs became so serious that the Australian Federation of Islamic Councils, after the outbreak of hostilities in January 1991, warned Muslims to keep a low profile and suggested that Muslim women only go out when absolutely necessary. The Islamic Council of Victoria had to employ a security firm and advised all Islamic Societies to do likewise.

Opinion leaders were mobilised by the Immigration Department, the Council of Churches and the trade union movement to try to prevent anti-Muslim hostility from escalating to a dangerous level. The political leadership at that time was also interested in defending community harmony. Prime Minister Hawke on January 14 1991 and then the Governor General in his Australia Day Message, issued statements against the harassment of Australian Arabs and Australian Muslims.

The Minister for Immigration, Local Government and Ethnic Affairs, Gerry Hand, the Minister for Justice, Senator Tate, the Premiers of Victoria and NSW, the Federal Opposition spokesperson on Immigration, Mr Ruddock, the Chairman of the Human Rights Commission, Sir Ronald Wilson, the ACTU, the Victorian Trades Hall Council, the Council of Churches, the Equal Opportunities Commissioner, the Chairman of the Ethnic Affairs Commission, the Federation of Ethnic Communities Councils, the Victorian Police, the Ministry of Education in Victoria, all issued statements against the harassment of and discrimination against Arab and Muslim Australians. Most government departments dealing with the Arab and Muslim communities set up strategies to deal with racist attacks, harassment and discrimination.

The Equal Opportunity Commissioner and the Human Rights Commission took the initiative in organising a media forum in Melbourne on 21 February 1991, at which members of the Muslim and Arab-Australian communities could discuss their concerns about the media stereotyping of their communities with representatives of the press, radio and television.

This strong reaction to racist and religiously bigoted harassment coincided with the release of the report of a National Inquiry into Racist Violence which was presented to the Commonwealth AttorneyGeneral in March 1991. It concluded “Evidence to the Inquiry has shown that the victims of racist intimidation, harassment and violence on the basis of ethnic identity are most likely to be Asian or Arab Australians.”

The response of the Australian community to this concerted effort was most heartening, but of course there were still some crocodiles in the shallows. There will probably always be these creatures about, but they need not be emboldened by poor or divisive political leadership.

The Abbott led national security fear campaign, directed at “Islamic terrorists” has led to anti-mosque hysteria, halal food investigations, to Reclaim Australia rallies and the foundation of the “United Patriots. “ This has happened with nary a word from our national political leadership uttered against people with swastika tattoos parading in the streets against Muslims. This is very similar to the situation which was developing in 1990 but which was short-circuited by our Australian leaders.

What a difference national political leadership, or rather its absence, makes!

GIFT OF KINDNESS

Fair-Skinned Isn’t Fair

By Jamilah Samian Let us be honest. Have you ever felt a tingle of discomfort if someone with a skin tone that looks markedly different from yours, were to sit next to you in a bus or train or flight? At a recent youth leadership program I helped facilitate, a young man recalled his first day at school. “I wasn’t too sure where to sit,” recounted the man. “Then my class teacher appeared, and the first thing he said was, ‘I want each of you to sit with someone who isn’t the same race or skin colour as yourself, on your left and on your right.”

The young man continued his story. “I realized years later that as a little child, I wasn’t bothered by people who looked different from me. It wasn’t just me.

It was true of all children. Children are non-judgemental. They treat everyone the same. Treating people differently because of their race or skin colour is something that we learned growing up.

Adults teach children to do that.”

At a glance, the young man’s experience seemed simple enough. Yet, here is a remarkable example of how adults who really care can shape the world, by instructing children under their tutelage, that race and skin colour are no more than skin deep. If only more adults were to start children on the right track as the young man’s teacher did.

I recall vividly a neighbour’s remark on seeing my newborn daughter for the first time: “It’s good she’s fair! She will get married early!” I didn’t quite know how to respond back then, although deep inside, I was appalled at the idea of my daughter being “measured” in terms of her “fairness”. There is just too much discrimination and prejudice happening around us, sparked by the seemingly innocent element of “skin colour”. You might have experienced something similar too! If you have two

or more children attending the same school, with one child darker-skinned, you might have heard a less sensitive teacher saying, “I didn’t know these two are siblings! The two of them look so different. I mean, A is much darker than her sister!”

How does one explain this inexplicable obsession with fair skin across the world? Not too long ago, I learnt from a fair European woman married to a very dark Asian man, that, in her husband’s family, being fair, like it or not, is top on the list, especially when looking for a spouse. So much so that girls were referred to as “dark, dark” or “dark” or “fair”. Woe betide those girls who fall under the “dark, dark” spectrum.

Meaning, it would be real hard for them to find suitors who would give them a second look. You must be fair first and foremost, to be considered worthy of marriage.

Really? How does skin colour influence our character, which should be the most important thing that matters?

Despite humanity’s seeming advances of technology, much leaves to be desired with how we deal with people of differing skin tones. For example: in America, slavery officially ended more than a century ago. But the remnants of its not-so-pleasant legacy remains.

Darker skinned African Americans are disadvantaged in many areas.

For instance, lighter skinned African Americans found it easier to secure jobs, even if the resumes of the lighter skinned applicants and the darker skinned applicants were to be exactly the same (Harrison & Thomas, 2009).

“I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character,” so said Dr Martin Luther King, Jr, worldrenowned for his role to wipe out racial discrimination in America. It would seem that his dream has yet to fully see the light of day.

One might argue that the as humans, it is only natural for us to seek those who are like us. It gives us a kind of

security that we are not alone; that we are among friends. We have ingrained in us a body system that finds it soothing, at a subconscious level, to be in a homogeneous environment.

This argument of “natural instinct” might make sense to some. Yet, isn’t it a matter of concern that something as basic and fundamental as race and skin colour are still used as a yardstick to judge people?

Point is, I am not saying that you should never spend meaningful time with your own peoples. All I’m saying is, you have much to gain if you make real effort to get acquainted with people of different races, ethnicities and colours.

Diversity has much to offer. Just as men and women have unique strengths, so do people of different colours and ethnicities enrich your life.

Allah says in the Quran, Surat AlHujurat [verse 13] - “O mankind, indeed We have created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another.”

It is good to remember that Bilal ibn Rabah, a black slave, was one of the most respected and trusted companions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Born in Mecca, Bilal was the first muezzin (caller to prayer), chosen by the Prophet himself. Bilal was among the freed slaves who gained honour for his selfless and exemplary character. By treating Bilal ibn Rabah as such, the Prophet proved that diversity and plurality and racial equality are celebrated in Islam. Men and women of different races and skin tones enhance our lives. If we were to act unkindly and feel otherwise, that’s our loss, not theirs.

Legal Corner

AntiCitizenship Hyder Gulam

Al wasat Legal Editor This month’s Legal Corner will be looking at Anti-Citizenship.

This has been making the news in many places around the world, including Australia, Canada and elsewhere, all generally common law nations, famed for their legal tolerance, adherence to the rule of law, and guarding of fundamental rights and freedoms.

There are generally certain responsibilities and privileges of being an Australian citizen. The responsibilities are: A. obey the law B. defend Australia should the need arise C. serve on a jury if called to do so D. vote in federal and state or territory elections, and in a referendum.

The privileges of being an Australian citizen is the right to: • Vote in federal and state or territory elections, and in a referendum • Apply for work in the australian public service or in the australian defence force • Seek election to parliament • Apply for an australian passport and re-enter australia freely • Receive help from an australian official while overseas • Register children born overseas as australian citizens by descent.

In Australia, the Abbott Government has released the latest anti-terror bill which allows for dual Australian nationals to lose their citizenship if they have been engaged in terrorism (see previous Al Wasat article about the meaning of this term). However, this is a perversity according to many groups, including the Muslim Legal Network, as a revocation of citizenship should only occur where a person has been convicted by a court. It is a grave innovation to have public servants making these decisions without due process and these matters not being heard by courts. In my view it is likely to be unconstitutional given secret assessments being made by public servants. The rule of law requires that we see justice and people know what they are being charged of.

They have a right to a fair trial, they have a presumption of innocence, they have a right to present a defence. In short, a key plank of the proposed legislation is the power to strip citizenship from dual nationals if they fight with “a listed terrorist organisation overseas”, which may be informed by a political bias, for example the African National Congress of which Nelson Mandela would have listed. Any dual citizen who is “convicted of a specific terrorism related offence” or engages in “specified terrorist related conduct” would also cease to be Australian.

In Canada, there is a newly proposed legislation to cancel the citizenship of terrorists. The law would give authorities the power to cancel the Canadian citizenship of dual citizens who served in a foreign army or organization fighting against Canada, or who were charged with treason.

It would target the growing number of Canadians joining terror groups and returning - potentially to conduct attacks. However, this matter is being taken further to also target the 145 Canadian citizens are serving in the IDF as “lone soldiers”, living by themselves in Israel and serving in the IDF. Certain Canadian groups have called for the Canadian law preventing citizens from leaving the country to join terror groups to be expanded to include those leaving to serve in the IDF. In concluding this short article about citizenship and ant-citizenship, it can be seen that naturalised citizens of Australia enter into a contractual agreement with the Commonwealth Government when they declare the citizenship pledge, as follows: From this time forward/(under God), I pledge my loyalty to Australia and its people, whose democratic beliefs I share, whose rights and liberties I respect, and whose laws I will uphold and obey.

As Muslims, we are indebted to keep our word and honour our covenants as a religious principle. Therefore, arguably the citizenship pledge becomes religiously binding. Australian-born citizens do not declare any such pledge, so they fall under another category, where the covenant of security is considered a customary understanding, in the sense that even though they did not physically affirm the pledge or sign a document of loyalty, it is understood that there exists between the citizen and the government a covenant of security. Finally, many eminent legal and non-legal scholars have soundly argued that the status of citizenship in a democratic society should not be treated as a tool of punishment or protection against threats to society and caution that this approach is counter-productive to attempts to address radicalization within our society.

Till next time, Masalama.

Muslim community helps tackle drug-use

Refugees Affairs

The Shift Towards Tyranny Bilal Cleland

ilal42@bigpond.com

The Islamic Council of Victoria in conjunction with the Victorian Alcohol and Drug Association (VAADA) ran a round-table discussion with Arabic-speaking Muslim community members and key representatives from local drug treatment services, based in the City of Hume.

22 community members attended the fruitful discussion, aimed at improving the outcomes for individuals and family members from the Arabic speaking Muslim community who are affected by harmful alcohol and other drug... (AOD) use, on Tuesday, August 18 at the ICV’s Jeffcott St office.

One of the key issues raised, was the difficulties individuals and family members from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities

experience in getting support from mainstream services, including drug treatment agencies.

The roundtable helped meet key decision makers from local drug treatment agencies; including ReGen, Oddyssey House, Yotuh projects, Vincent Care and Kildonian, and raised issues of direct concern and interest by hearing directly from local drug treatment representatives about the services they provide and what can be done to make these services more culturally approachable and relevant.

ICV Project Officer Ramzi Elsayed chaired the meeting, along with Sheikh Moustapha Sarakibi and Ben Gresham.

ICV General Manager Nail Aykan said it was important for community leaders to come forward on such issues which are often taboos within our communities.

A former security guard at the asylum seeker detention centre in Nauru told the Senate inquiry into the circumstances and conditions at the detention centre, that asylum seekers are being waterboarded. That is a form of torture used by the Americans on prisoners at Guantanamo Bay. The lawyers presenting this evidence stated [Independent Australia 18 August 2015]:: The Prime Minister said such allegations were false and called for any evidence to the contrary to be produced. {the Guardian 16 August 2015] What cannot be denied is the fact that the de-humanising of prisoners or detainees must inevitably lead to abuse and torture. Kellie Tranter in “Australia’s Abu Ghraib moment” [Independent Australia 18 August 2015], discussed the findings of wellknown American psychologist Philip Zimbardo who reported on the abuse at Aby Ghraib.

“According to Zimbardo, good people do bad things when there’s a dehumanisation of others, de-individuation of self, diffusion of personal responsibility, blind obedience to authority, uncritical conformity to group norms and passive tolerance of evil through inaction or indifference. All this usually occurs in a new or unfamiliar situation.”

ICV Day of Immersion When we look at the situation in our detention centres, or concentration camps, there is too much similarity. “The Abbott Government has instructed department and detention staff to publicly refer to asylum seekers as illegal arrivals and as detainees, dressed public servants in military-style uniforms, ignored the fact that children identify more readily with their boat identification number than their name, implemented media bans, solidified departmental and contractor power and anonymity and blanketed all government policy and action in secrecy. How better to set the scene for significant human rights abuses?”

The increasing evidence of human rights abuses being carried out in our name is a national disgrace. As participants in a democracy we all bear responsibility for these abuses so we must speak up. Silence is consent!

The ICV in conjunction with Spiritual Care Victoria hosted an immersion day for 17 students from Stirling University on the 18th of August, 2015.

The event now in its second year gave Students from the theological college a chance to immerse themselves in Islam for the day.

Starting at the ICV Office in Broadmeadows, Students were given a primer on Islam by Prof.

Aladin Zayegh touching on the 5 pillars of Islam, religious sources and dietary habits. The long-standing commun...ity member and teacher revelled in the experience to share the tenets of faith to those hungry to learn. This was followed by presentation on health and care by event organiser and hospital coordinator Lina Ayoubi and struck a chord with many that performed chaplaincy work within their own traditions.

The group then boarded a bus bound for Meadow heights Mosque to give them a more

practical sense of Islam.

Delightfully, hosted by the sisters of Sareera Youth.

Guests were enlightened on a variety of activities conducted by the youth group including nursing home visits, outdoor activities etc. as well as learning more about the function of the Mosque itself.

They were then treated to the famous hospitality prevalent in Muslim cultures when they enjoyed a beautiful Turkish meal. This was then Followed by an observation of the Zuhr (Midday prayers) in the Mosque itself. To many this was the highlight of the day to be able to see Muslims perform their daily observance and be enriched by the spirituality.

The guests were then shuttled onto their next destination: The Islamic Museum of Australia to get a more historical understanding of Islam. Guided by Wafa Fahour an IMA & ICV Hospital Chaplain volunteer the group was treated to many personal anecdotes about her upbringing in Islam which helped

personalise the experience as well as open their eyes to the diversity that exists within the Muslim world.

The day ended too soon for some but all in all the students really enjoyed their day of immersion in Islam. Fresh in the knowledge and new perspectives on Islam as well as new friendships.

Event organiser Lina Ayoubi commented that “It was a very dynamic informative and challenging experience for most of the participants yesterday. Certainly some came with one attitude and left with a completely different one” If you would like to know about the ICV Hospital Chaplaincy Program please contact: admin@icv.org.au Or visit their facebook page at: If you would like to know more about immersion day please visit: http://www.divinity.edu.au/ news-events/2015/05/25/ pastoral-and-spiritual-care-ina-multi-faith-setting/

An Iftar to Remember

‫ساهموا في تسديد ثمن المبنى المجاور لمسجد السالم‬

Islamic association of logan city

‫املنزل الذي مت �شراءه بجوار م�سجد ال�سالم تابع للجمعية اال�سالمية‬

Sowaibah Hanifie Saturday the 20th of June marked a momentous day for Adelaide’s Muslim community, as they invited their fellow Australians to break fast together.

In true Ramadan spirit, Muslims and NonMuslims alike were invited to the Botanical Gardens by the Shahin Family and the Islamic Arabic Centre to celebrate the Holy Month of Ramadan.

The Iftar brought together local and State politicians as well community leaders under a spectacularly decorated marquee with a lavish arrangement of cultural foods.

Special guests included His Excellency the Honorable Hieu Van Le AO, Governor of South Australia; The Honorable Jay Weatherill, Premier of SA, His Excellency the Grand Mufti, Ibrahim Abu Mohamed, David Knox, Chair of the Adelaide Botanic Gardens Foundation, Prof. Mohamad

Abdullah and His Excellency, Dr. Hassan El-Laithy, Ambassador of the Republic of Egypt.

As people from various backgrounds prayed and broke fast together, the audience was reminded of the beauty of multiculturalism and tolerance. Member of the organising committee, Banaz Aziz, was positive her team would be able to present the true values of Islam through the event. She explained that as Muslims they were encouraged to uphold strong relationships and exhibit hospitality to others who may or may not be of the same religion.

For the Muslim community, Ramadan is a time to appreciate their countless blessings, including the ability to enjoy a meal with others regardless of their of difference. The Iftar will hopefully be the first of many more occasions that hearten positive attitudes towards a religion in which the very greeting is of peace.

Message from the President

IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE MOST BENEFICENT, THE MOST MERCIFUL Assalaamu Alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh We have farewelled the holy month of Ramadan with heavy hearts.

We are grateful, Alhamdulillah, for this injection of spiritual energy and upliftment received during the last 30 days.

As we embrace each new day, we seek Allah’s support, beseeching Him Almighty to guide us to the right path and help us remain steadfast in faith for the rest of the year, Insha’Allah.

The spiritual ‘recharge’ gained over this period energises one into consistent good actions and good habits developed during Ramadan. In practical terms, it means whatever good you have done, you keep it up. You keep up and continue to help those less fortunate, be charitable, be polite, kind helpful to one another, support each other in achieving good even in small projects.

Keep up the remembrance of Allah SWT, continue with reciting and understanding and acting upon the lessons of the Holy Quran, nourish the light of your Iman with the continuous remembrance of Allah SWT. The lessons, actions and behaviour during Ramadan is not limited to the Holy month, a good, practising Muslim is defined by his character each and every day of the year.

May Allah SWT open our hearts to His remembrance and may Allah open our hearts for others, our brothers and sisters who are in great difficulty around the world, let us remember them in our prayers.

Our beloved prophet Mohammed SAW, said: “The supplication that gets the quickest answer is the one made by one Muslim for another in his absence.” (Hadith reported by Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi) May Allah SWT guide us on our journey through this temporary existence, may Allah grant us courage and strength to overcome every challenge in an exemplary manner, Insha’Allah.

Until next time, Insha’Allah.

Wassalaamu Alaikum.

AFIC HISTORY In 1963 the Australian Muslim community adopted an organisational structure for the cause of Islam in Australia. At the grass roots level local Muslims formed Islamic Societies to serve their basic needs in terms of education and prayer facilities. The building of Mosques and providing religious education became the primary objective.

The Islamic Councils of each State and Territory united to form State Islamic Councils representing their respective Muslim communities at the peak State level.

At the national level the State and Territory Islamic Councils formed the Australian Federation of Islamic Councils Inc (AFIC), as the national umbrella organisation for Australian Muslims representing Islam and Muslims at a national and international level. AFIC has its head office in Sydney with branch offices in Melbourne.

All the Praise to Allah ‫جلَّ شأنه‬ for His Grace and Blessings, and I thank Him for granting us success and guidance and prayers and peace be upon Muhammed ‫ صلى اهلل عليه وسلم‬whose life style is a source of guidance for us. Alhamdulillah this year so far at Islamic College of South Australia we have been able to achieve all it goals and objectives pertaining to its growth and providing excellent educational facilities to our children.

Eid Prayer which was held on Saturday 18 July 2015 at the

Islamic College of Brisbane, Karawatha.

Every year ICQ with other member organizations and Mosques conducts the Eid prayer at the Islamic College of Brisbane. The Islamic College of Brisbane is the preferred venue due to the facilities and ample space. The Islamic College of Brisbane’s community is steadily growing with parents of over a thousand students and others who are affiliated to our team of 6 Imams and annual Taraweeh prayers.

We were fortunate enough to listen to the beautiful recitation of Surah Ar Rahman from Qari Ziyaad Patel, and a wonderful khutba from Moulana Uzair Akbar. May Allah continue to bless our scholars for their tireless efforts.

The Head of Islamic and Arabic studies at our College, Mufti Zeeyad Ravat gave us a very pertinent message and noteworthy reminder of unity. He asked a question to all present, “If our creator is one, our prophet is one and our book is one why do we have so many different groups amongst us? “ The Eidgah is a fantastic expression of the power of unity among our society and we pray that Allah accepts our efforts.

The official attendance was approximately 7,500 and we understand that we had capacity to handle another 1500. We also had ample car parking and we estimate that we would have managed to accommodate another 100 to 150 cars.

Given the extremely cold weather this year, the Eidgah was held indoors and under cover.

The Islamic College Of Brisbane supports all community initiatives and will always be happy to host such events that bring our community together.
