সাধু সাবধান.....ঢাকার রাস্তা এখন ছিনতাইকারীদের দখলে০৭ ই জুন, ২০০৮ রাত ১১:১৯ঢাকার রাস্তায় এখন ছিনতাইকারীদের রাজত্ব চলছে। সরকার ব্যস্ত বড় বড় বোয়াল মাছ ধরায়। আর সেই সুযোগে ছিনতাইকারীরা ঘুরে বেড়াচ্ছে অবাধে। আর তাছাড়া সরকারের চিন্তা নির্বাচন। এসব ছোটখাটো বিষয়ে কে নজর দেন! গত ছয় দিনে আমার পরিচিতদের মধ্যে চার জন ছিনতাই এর কবলে পড়েছেন। তার মধ্য দুটি উল্লেখ করতে পারি। http://www.somewher অদক্ষ তত্ববধায়কদের জন্য দেশের প্রতিদিনের ক্ষতি কত কোটি টাকা? |
It's a valid question, and as a freelance writer, I have the right to raise it. Indeed, any other citizen could have asked the same. Freedom of expression is every Bangladesh's fundamental right.Successive administrations of other political dispensations, instead of countering this regressive brand of politics, have adopted it. This is result of appeasement politics adopted by politicians for far too long. Any sane advice with even a hint of name/cause hijacked by a particular group to further itself gives a chance to these hooligans to portray themselves as the only champions for that particular reason to cash in on a particular votebank. You can find ample examples of these in every nook & corner of the country. Only if media in particular & public in general stops highlighting/
In their crude attempts to gain political capital by presenting themselves as protectors of nation's legacy, political parties in Bangladesh are impoverishing Bangladesh's liberal tradition at the last minute of destruction. But this is a dangerous move. It could have damaging consequences for not just journalists but all citizens. Freedom of expression, which includes the freedom of the press, is vital to a healthy democracy, which protects individual and collective rights.
Increasingly, in one way or another, we seem to be fighting a losing battle against those who have little regard or respect for the liberal values on which this nation was founded. All of us failed to match our dreams of perfection. So I rate us on the basis of our splendid failure to do the impossible.

Yashwant does not understand why any one should consider Maududi a hero. Farida Majid considers him curse for our land. A large number of people all over the world have a different opinion on him.
Maulana Maududi is neither a hero nor a curse. Then what is his place in history?
At home, in my personal library I have six English translations of the Qur'an and two tafseers. One of each (a translation and a tafseer) is the work of Maulana Maududi. I dip into all of these to quench my thirst for knowledge and understanding. I find Maulana Maududi's understanding of the Divine Message very clear and focused. Is he the best or is he perfect? I do not think so. But without any doubt he is one of the greatest Islamic scholar and thinker of our times.
Should one make too much out of the fact that he was arrested by the Pakistani military and sentenced by their tribunal? How did the same military treat Sheikh Mujib?
Robindra Nath Tagore and Nazrul Islam are both Bengali poets loved and adored by millions of Bangalis. Yet one was jailed and the other was decorated with the highest literary award in the world. People who love poetry love both Tagoe and Nazrul.
Millions of Muslims read the translations of Maududi in Urdu, Bangla and English and benefit from his clear understanding of Islam. As I mentioned no man is perfect. As such the people who love Islam love Maulana Maududi for his scholarship as they also love other scholars and thinkers.

Can someone find the Munir-Kayani Report from Pakistani archives and help distribute it as widely as possible?
The curse of Moududi is the scourge on our land, on our faith and our lives. Please do all you can to battle against this curse and restore sanity and humanity to our people.
Farida Majid
[Below is a note from a cyber-friend in an Indian forum where I had described the plight of Bangladesh in the hands of Jamaat. He echoes my sentiments]
===================== ========= ========= =====
It should be pointed out that Maududi's imprisonment and death sentence
was for his role in instigation sectarion riots in Pakistan.
The disturbances were of such magnitude that martial law had to be
imposed.
Maududi contributed greatly to rise of intolerance in Pakistan (and the
rest of the subcontinent as well).
The disturbanced were investigated by a panel of judges 'Punjab
Disturbances Court Of Inquiry', which after a detailed investigation
submitted a 384-page report in 1954. It is sometimes called the
Munir-Kayani report, after the two distinguished Justices who headed the
investigation. I will share some of the sections of the report. It is
a very important document for students of modern history, not just of
Pakistan but of the subcontinent as well.
Maududi cannot be considered to be a hero in a society that values
tolerance.
I cannot understand why the Bihar Anjuman, or any other Indian groups
would regard him as a hero.
Yashwant
