I wrote this in response to someone’s Facebook wall post that said: “‘I’m NOT a Shi’ite, I’m NOT a Sufi, I’m NOT a Ahmedi, I’m NOT a Shafi-ee, I’m NOT a Hanbali, I’m NOT a Hanafi or I’m NOT a Maliki. I AM WHAT THE QUR’AN ASKED ME TO BE!.”‘ My response turned out longer than expected, and probably even longer if I spent more time writing it….
as-salamu ‘alaykum, Lion TV wants to speak to Muslim World War 2 veterans who served under the British/Indian Army for a television documentary. We are keen to broadcast personal testimonies of these often forgotten fighters who were essential in fighting the Axis Powers and winning the war.
