Konferensi Islam di UK: Tawarkan Islam Sebagai Solusi

Konferensi Islam ke-3 telah digelar oleh Islamic Society, sebuah lembaga mahasiswa Muslim di University of Essex. Kali ini tema yang diusung adalah ”Islam Beyond the Veil”, menawarkan Islam sebagai solusi. Dua konferensi sebelumnya, pada 2008 bertema ”A Journey to Islamic Values” dan pada 2007 mengambil tema ”Islam as a Moderate Religion”.

Konferensi menampilkan lima pembicara, empat pembicara dari British Muslim dan seorang pembicara lain adalah ahli psikologi pendidikan dari Kerajaan Saudi Arabia. Sebuah pertanyaan dicari jawabannya dalam konferensi itu: apakah Islam betul-betul memberikan solusi untuk berbagai masalah dalam kehidupan masyarakat Barat sekarang ini. Disadari atau tidak, setiap Muslim baik secara individu maupun sebagai sebuah komunitas, adalah bagian dari kompleksitas dunia saat ini.

Untuk terlibat aktif menyelesaikan masalah dunia ini, bukan saatnya lagi untuk menerapkan strategi konfrontasi, membuat perbedaan yang tidak tersatukan antara Islam dan Barat yang tidak islami. Model Clash of Civilisation yang digunakan oleh mantan Presiden George W. Bush dan juga Osama Bin Laden adalah bukan cara yang tepat untuk menghadirkan kedamaian di bumi ini. Cara berpikir semacam ini hanya akan menciptakan kehancuran dan pertentangan yang tidak akan pernah terselesaikan dalam kehidupan manusia.

Komunitas Muslim di Indonesia yang mayoritas, mungkin perlu mengambil pelajaran dari komunitas-komunitas Muslim yang minoritas di Eropa. Muslim harus mampu menampilkan Islam sebagai nilai lebih dalam kehidupan pribadi dan masyarakatnya, baik itu ketika menjadi kelompok mayoritas maupun minoritas.

Ketua Islamic Society University of Essex Abdullah Al-sheddy mengatakan, konferensi dengan polemik yang disampaikan sejarahwan Bernard Lewis, yang menempatkan Islam bukan saja sebagai agama tapi juga sebagai way of life (pandangan hidup) berkembang dalam keseluruhan materi konferensi tahun ini yang dihadiri lebih dari 300 undangan yang separuhnya adalah warga Inggris.

British Muslim Abdul Raheem Green sebagai pembicara pertama berpendapat, pernyataan Islam sebagai solusi kehidupan manusia modern masih tampak sebagai slogan belaka. Dibutuhkan kerja keras dari kalangan muslim untuk mewujudkannya. Nilai solusi Islam juga harus lebih realistis pada beberapa masalah tertentu saja bukan untuk semua masalah, kata pria kelahiran Daar-es-Salaam Tanzania dari keluarga Agnostik-Katolik.

Menurut Abdul Green, menempatkan Islam sebagai satu-satunya solusi bagi semua masalah adalah sebuah kesalahan yang kelak bisa menjadi bomerang bagi masa depan Islam. Apabila Muslim menginginkan sikap toleran dari masyarakat Kristen-Katolik dan masyarakat pro-sekularisme di Inggris, maka Islam harus menunjukkan toleransinya kepada agama-agama yang lain.

Pembicara lain, Khola Hasan dan Dr. Yahya Al-Baheth, masing-masing membahas tentang pentingnya implementasi atau diakuinya Hukum Islam khususnya berkaitan dengan perkawinan dan warisan di Inggris dan peran penting keluarga dalam menciptakan generasi Muslim yang kuat.

Khola, penyandang master dalam bidang Perbandingan Hukum Internasional dari SOAS (School of Oriental and African Studies), mengingatkan perempuan Muslim adalah kelompok yang rentan menjadi korban tidak diakuinya Hukum Islam dalam sistem hukum di Inggris. Banyak perempuan yang pernikahannya tidak terdaftar di Civil Magistrate dan tidak mendapatkan bagian pensiun dari suaminya yang meninggal atau tidak bisa menuntut cerai karena suaminya melakukan tindak kekerasan, kata Khola Hasan.[]

Everything about horse betting

Horse racing's traditions give it unique flavor and character, but to be successful, it must be willing to evolve to catch up to the present and to meet the future. We most certainly hope that it does.

In the United Kingdom, there are races that involve obstacles (either hurdles or fences) called National Hunt racing and those that are unobstructed races over a given distance (flat racing). The UK has provided many of the sport's greatest ever jockeys, most notably Gordon Richards.


In the 131 years that have passed only 11 horses have managed to accomplish what is arguably the most difficult feat in sports. Compared to the Triple Crown, no-hitters in baseball are an everyday occurrence; back to back championships in other sporting events, a dime a dozen; there have been more solar eclipses in our lifetime than Triple Crown winners and each year more people are struck by lightening than the total number of Triple Crown winners in history.

Brother Derek with Alex Solis up finished in a dead heat for fourth in the Derby, 9 1/2 lengths back after being steadied twice. With a career record of 6 wins out of 9 starts (3 out of 4 this year) Brother Derek had 4 straight wins before the Derby.

If you’re like me when you first saw the term “arbitrage sports betting” you just said, “huh?” You may even be reading this article because you were wondering. It is a relatively little method that can actually allow you to make money no matter who wins or loses. Kind of like heads I win, tails I win!

One key thing to remember when you are seeking out the best sports betting odds is that the best odds and the best sports bookmaker are not necessarily one and the same.

The Martingale System is probably the most famous sports betting system on the planet and actually has nothing to do with choosing the winner of an event but is more concerned with the right odds and money lines. It seems that the gist of the system is that it looks at the statistical probabilities of how many times in a row one may lose and is put into action by placing a bet and then betting again if you win.

So, having established that using a good Selection System is an absolute must if you want to make money from sports betting, how does the average Bettor actually go about making his/her betting selections? My research shows me that, in the main (ignoring the extremes), there are generally two approaches taken:

- The more conservative group looks at the "Short Odds" calls, and plays safe by selecting only those matches where they themselves feel very confident about the outcome.

- The more adventurous group analyses the matches and odds on offer, and then makes selections based on their own gut feeling about how the matches will turn out, making sure that the odds match their concept of a "value" bet.

Let's start in the past and work forward - seems to be fairly logical. Starting just before the Matt Busby era at United my first selection is Jack Rowley. He joined United before Busby came along. Though not the whole story, naturally a striker is measured to some extent by his goal tally. Rowley managed to net 211 times in 424 games for United before leaving the club in 1955. His tally of 211 makes him one of only 3 players to break the 200 mark. manchester united [url=http://www.pulsebet.com]arsenal football[/url] Manchester United and Manchester City are only two of the city’s local football teams. Recent estimates indicate that Greater Manchester has the most number of football clubs per capita anywhere in the world. Among the other professional football teams in Greater Manchester are Oldham Athletic, Stockport County, Bury, Wigan Athletic, Rochdale and Bolton Wanderers. [url=http://www.pulsebet.com]carrick[/url] Hopefully this article has given an informative insight into the history of the Manchester United Shirt, and should you be asked on "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" for the colour scheme of the Newton Railways Club shirt, you won't need to phone a friend!

6.) Play your online bingo game at a site with less or balanced number of players. Winning chances in overcrowded games is low.
[url=http://www.bingokisses.com]bingo on line[/url] play bingo There are 75 balls in all with numbering from one to 75. Hence, the probability of any random number to come in the first draw is 1/75. There are three accepted tests for assuring randomness of the balls. These are:
o Numbers ending in 1s, 2s, 3s, 4s, 5s, etc. are in equal proportions.
o High and low numbers occur in equal balances.
o Odd and even numbers occur in equal balances.

With so many different casino and gaming sites on the Internet, it is difficult to know which ones are legitimate and which ones are not. After all, if you want to join the gaming community, you have to decide whether you want to play for money or for fun and prizes. If the former, it is more pertinent to find out what sites are legitimate since you do not want to invest cash into something that is not going to give you a return on your investment.

9.) Similarly, chat rooms also offer different incentives. Some chat rooms offer free game for playing and chatting for certain number of hours on their site. Some offer incentives for referring friends to their site. Such incentives offer extra chances to play and therefore, more chances for winning a game of online bingo.

Your aim would be to cover the prescribed pattern with the bingo letters, by coordinating the letters and numbers called. The patterns can be anything like, u shape, t shape, etc, though it usually is horizontal or vertical. As soon as you get the pattern, you should shout bingo and you get the prize. In case there are others who shouted at the same time as you, the prize will be shared among all winners.
