So what privately do they meant by Islamic architecture? Just similar to in a case of JAKIM banning books, we need details. You anathema a book though revelation us what is privately wrong with it. And we direct Islamic pattern though revelation us privately what it is ostensible to demeanour like.
NO HOLDS BARRED
Raja Petra Kamarudin
I would similar to to refer to a dual headlines equipment next though do not know whether I should write a topic or usually my normal 'short' seven-page article. Anyway, let me usually start writing as good as we shall see where we finish up.
The dual headlines equipment I am articulate about have been associated to Islam, a most sensitive theme in Islamophobia Malaysia. 'Islamophobia' essentially meant prejudice opposite or hatred and/or irrational fright of Islam or Muslims. In Malaysia, however, it can additionally meant a fear that Malaysians in ubiquitous as good as Muslims in particular have been not we do a 'correct' Islamic thing.
Now, a sovereign supervision or JAKIM is banning books upon Islam, or books they courtesy as 'against Islamic teachings', whilst a state supervision of Kelantan is imposing Islamic pattern in a state.
Why do not a supervision usually bake all books totally similar to what a Mongols did or bake all books not associated to Islam similar to what a Wahabis did. Book burning as good as book banning has regularly been a plan used by despotic governments to keep a people in ignorance. And this is so that a powers-that-be can control a people.
An educated race becomes a thinking race as good as as a result would be a risk to a statute elite. Therefore, a supervision would similar to to keep a people in stupidity usually so that it can control a peo! ple by e nslaving them. And this labour is some-more in effect when a supervision can imprison a minds.
Okay, so JAKIM has, nonetheless again, criminialized a book it perceives as insulting to Islam as good as "contravening teachings in a Quran as good as Hadiths". That is good as good as fine. But is it not a duty of JAKIM to indicate out that partial of that book is in error, or is deceiving, as good as what it should correctly be?
For example, did a book contend that Prophet Muhammad was born in Medina since he was born in Mekah? And was his date of birth referred to in that book wrong? We need to know that partial of that book is wrong as good as what it should be instead.
As it is, JAKIM usually imposes a sweeping anathema upon a book upon drift that a book is misleading. Surely not 100% of that book is misleading. Even if there were any errors in that book it would be usually a partial of that book, not a total book.
JAKIM is ostensible to play a role of teacher of Islam. You do not educate people by banning books. You educate them by editing misconceptions. If there have been wrong ideology afterwards we tell us that have been these wrong ideology as good as what a right ideology are.
Not most Malaysians were primarily wakeful of a life of these criminialized books until JAKIM criminialized them. Now that they have been criminialized these books would become popular. The books may be criminialized in Malaysia in a print form, though how is JAKIM starting to stop people from reading this book online? And when some-more than 50% of Malaysians have been upon a Internet, some-more people have been starting to read it now than prior to it was banned. I mean, some-more than 10 million Malaysians can read books online though they can't sell 10 million copies of any book in Malaysia. They can't even sell a single million copies.
Hence some-more damage has been finished by banning a book compared to permitting a book as good as rely! ing to w hat we cruise 'wrong teachings'. Can we see how foolish these people from JAKIM are? They give idiots a bad name. And these have been a same people who tortured me with sleep damage when they incarcerated me in 2008. So what some-more can we expect from them?
Kelantan, upon a other hand, wants to levy Islamic pattern in a state. What Islamic pattern have been they articulate about? Have a demeanour during a photographs below. Is this what they mean?
You see, in a desert, there have been silt storms as good as no rain. So buildings need to be written differently from those in places, say, similar to Malaysia, that has monsoon rains. If we pattern 'Islamic' buildings in Malaysia they would not be that appropriate.
So what privately do they meant by Islamic architecture? Just similar to in a case of JAKIM banning books, we need details. You anathema a book though revelation us what is privately wrong with it. And we direct Islamic pattern though revelation us privately what it is ostensible to demeanour like.
During a time of a Prophet, people lived in tents as good as wooden huts. Is that what we meant by Islamic architecture? Jeddah airfield is written similar to a huge tent. So we wish all buildings in Kelantan to demeanour similar to a huge tent?
Actually, Islamic pattern has been borrowed from a Persian Sassanid as good as Eastern Roman Byzantine period with some Germanic Visigoth influence. Hence they have been not Islamic though per-Islamic as good Christian architecture. When a Moors invaded Christian Spain, they 'stole' a horseshoe arch design. Hence that is, again, Christian architecture.
The Dome of a Rock (Qubbat al-Sakhrah), that was built in Jerusalem in 691, is deliberate a single of a most critical buildings in all of Islamic architecture. That, however, has a really clever Byzantine influence. The really form! of a ro tunda given to a Qubbat al-Sakhrah is unfamiliar to Islam as good as was an try to rival a most Christian domes of a time.
So what Islamic pattern have been we articulate about? The tent design? The square box design? Or a Christian pattern that was stolen by a Muslims? Which pattern is Kelantan starting to levy upon developers?
So can we see since JAKIM wants to anathema books? It is since if they do not anathema books afterwards we may find a truth. And a law is there is no such thing as Islamic design. The Kuala Lumpur Railway Station, a Sultan Sulaiman Building in front of Dataran Merdeka, etc., were essentially written by a 'kafir' British as good as adopted from Moorish architecture. The Moors, in turn, took this pattern from Christian Spain.
That's why. Don't simply anathema books. If we anathema books afterwards EXCO Members similar to those from Kelantan would sojourn ignorant. They would consider that Moorish architecture, that was stolen from a Spanish Christians, have been essentially Islamic designs.
Yeah, sure, ABU, ABU, ABU! Asal bukan Umno! Never mind if we opinion for idiots as prolonged as not Umno. Never mind if these idiots anathema books as good as levy Islamic pattern as prolonged as not Umno.
It is time these people have been told that it is ABUAI -- anything though Umno as good as idiots.
