Why Europe Needs Islam
Sunday, January 27th, 2008This entry should be posted last week, but due to work and tiredness, I had to delay it.
Last week, on Friday my friends and me got the opportunity to listen to the talk given by a few prominent speakers in Whitechapel. The talk was titled Why Europe Needs Islam. It was brought by RadicalMiddleWay, an organisation formed to fight Islamophobia through discussion and talks (this is my view, thier real objective may be different if you read in their website).
The talk was supposed to provoke people and spark the discussion about what we Muslim can offer to the European. There was three speakers invited. Dr Usama who is a scientist cleared the misconception of Islam and gives few ideas on what we Muslim can do to help the Europe and what Europe can benefits form Islam. Second talk wak given by Dr Kamal el-Helbawy. One his points that I could recall on top of my head is about the theory of clash of civilisation. Finally the talk was given by the grand mufti of Bosnia, Dr mustafa Ceric.
Enjoy.
