The Garden State’s Unsung Hero ! The Story of Transformation of a Community by Nasir Shamsi Mehfle Shahe Khorasan the First Shia Center of the American Shias of Indo-Pakistan origin is 30 years old, this month of August 2005. As one of its first congregants, I am asked to pen down my thoughts about what is now endearingly called Mehfil. I do not know where I had read it. But I agree with the succinct message in this quote: “ The history is to a people what brain is to the individual “. The living communities do record their history. They keep an account of where they came from, what preceded them, what brought them together (and kept them) together their religious heritage, culture, aspirations, folkways and mores their early struggles and any thing and everything that transformed them from a group into a community. For us in these critical times, the study of our early struggles and the role of a small center to help transform scattered groups into community has become all the more significant.

Reader rebuttal: The truth about IslamA recent book review by Orange County Register senior editorial writer Steven Green hut praised a book that argues that the minority of Muslim extremists who are involved in terrorism are not a deviation from, but rather a "natural result of following the actual teachings of Muhammad and the Quran" ["Islam, without blinders," Commentary, June 11]. Such a conclusion reflects either a distressing ignorance about Islam or, more worrisome, an unrepentant Islam phobia. More.....

"United we Stand, Divided we Fall" A Winning Solution for the Iraqi People by Dr. Robert D. Crane The Prophet, salla Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam, cautioned us to remember his words: "It is easy to break a single twig but difficult when it is bundled with others." The same is true of people. Divided they are weak and vulnerable; united they are strong and unassailable. This is why the ethnic and religious groups in the Fertile Crescent of the Middle East should respect their differences and unite in a federation or confederation or similar alliance with a common purpose.
