1. DO NOT ACCEPT HUMILIATION : In one of his speeches, Imam Hussein a.s. said that the authorities in Kufa had given him only two options - humiliation or death. He carried on to say,'And we do not accept humiliation'. A tradition reported by Imam Sadiq a.s records that, other than not accepting humiliation, Allah Almighty has given to believers a choice in all matters.
2. BROAD-MINDNESS : This means thinking independently and being just in one's judgements. Not simply following others blindly and keeping one's eyes closed. On the Day of Ashura Imam Hussein a.s. addressed Yazid's troops:O followers of Abu Sufyan, if you are not following the teachings of Islam then as freemen, be independent of judgement. On what basis do you fight me now?

The victims of Haiti’s catastrophic earthquake look to the rest of the world for relief. Across the shores of this little island millions of concerned people are finding various ways to help. To this end, The World Federation and many other Muslim aid organisations are working hard to help provide a range of support services to the people of Haiti, including our Muslim brothers and sisters from the Al Mahdi Islamic Centre who were also gravely affected by the quake.

An exhibition that has just opened at the Science Museum in London is celebrating 1,000 years of science from the Muslim world.
From about 700 to 1700, many of history's finest scientists and technologists were to be found in the Muslim world.
From Moorish Spain across North Africa to Damascus, Baghdad, Persia and all the way to India, scientists in the Muslim world were at the forefront of developments in medicine, astronomy, engineering, hydraulics, mathematics, chemistry, map-making and exploration.
A new touring exhibition, hosted by the Science Museum in London, celebrates their achievements.
The free exhibition runs from 21 January to 25 April with a break between 25 February and 12 March.

KSIMC of London (Hujjat)

The KSIMC Of London is pleased to announce the release of "In Sorrow", the second CD of English Nawhas and Latmiyyats that are written and recited by Voices of Passion. These are now on sale at various jamaats worldwide and online at http://www.eimaan.co.uk/index.php?cat=Latmiyyat.
The narration of the events of Karbala is of pivotal importance to the fight against oppression and tyranny and the remembrance in the form of azadari has been crucial in the passing on of the message of Islam through the generations. As a community, it is important that we continue the tradition of writing such lamentations and nawhas.
