Islamic Revival

This article is written by Brother Saqib Bukhari The British government has been exposed, in what was well known amongst the Ummah in the UK, that it has been targeting the Muslim community and actively attempting to create another form of Islam. The British government has for long presented itself as one of the most tolerant nations in Europe when it comes to dealing with the Muslim community within its shores. Visiting the Home Office website, ones attention is immediately focused on the statement written in bold which proudly presents the UK as having one of the most comprehensive and wide-ranging approaches to tackling terrorism anywhere in the world.
