It is very unfortunate that the entire Muslim world has become the center of all conflicts. Be it Palestine or Kashmir, everywhere in the world Muslims are faced with immense difficulties. Now Egypt is turning out to be a cauldron of chaos. The question that we should all ask ourselves is: Who is responsible for dismal state of affairs in the Muslim countries?

These days it has become fashionable among us Muslims to blame Israel, India, the US and the UN for our problems. I think we should shun this mentality and no longer believe in conspiracy theories.

I feel the source of all our problems is the fact that we have gone astray from the path of Islam. We don’t follow the true and pristine teachings of Islam.

The Muslim world is blessed with all sorts of natural resources, manpower and necessary expertise to excel in this world.

There is nothing in the world that Muslims do not have, except for the real knowledge of Islam.

To change our situation, we must turn to Islam. We have to implement Islam in our lives and after that we must pool our resources. If we do this, we will become the leaders of the world. — Israrul Haque, Jeddah
