Birmingham Central Mosque are having an open day to, allegedly, educate people about Islam. Please see attached flier. Sounds a bit dodgey as its aimed only at women.

Im not asking anyone to convert to islam, far from it. You misunderstood the title, im asking why anyone would convert. I agree that there is a lot of controversy around the topic, but why are the muslims restricting it to only women attending? I have posted the flier to make people aware of whats going on. Conversions are a hot topic at the moment and I personally believe that muslims are intentionally causing controversy at it brings them into the limelight. Theres no such thing as bad publicity...!

How i see it?

1. Your title senetence is " convert into Isam".

2. The location with you give.

3. You use the word " aimed" which you insist just be for women.

By looking at your name i think you are working for the isam community to promtoe their ideas on trying to convert sikhs women into isam. Your profile say you are a member on Aug,22.06 but you have made two topics. but the second topic is how sikhs were dancing a temple but as a newbie why write about that in AUG but havnt write anything since then. WHY WRITE SOMETHING ABOUT THAT IF YOU R A NEWBIE.In my opinion i think you as a person go into these website to promote isam ideas and values. Your first topic and second ones are very conservatorial on which you write.I dont undertand your question if you are writing one. in your orginal box where does it say you have a questions. After 6 months since you write that one topic you have appeared and write a awareness on Cenntral Mosque Open day. that weird becaue most sikhs dont carry if a mosque are begin open but when you wrote "aimed only at women" after many people read about the blackmail conversion but you insist only for women.

IK ONG KAR SATGURU PRASAD!!

Dear Friend,

To me it apparently has nothing that we need to feel concerned about. Muslim women, untill now and as far as i am aware, have been opressed. Now that these women too are educated, i feel they are trying to find their stand in their society at large. Therefore, this does not seem to be a missionary move.

However, even if it were, why should we bother about this?? On the contrary we should be firm on our stand to live the SIKHI way and also tell our near and dear to do the same.

My Kalgidhar Patshahji sacrificed his whole world but did not give in!

Remember

*nikke nikke do khalse.. dekho neehan ch khade muskaundey..

dharam nibhaheeda kiven.. vade vadeyaan noo samjhaundey.. *

Bhul chuk maaf karnee

Dey shiva bar mohe.. shubh karman tey kabahoon na taroon!!

I can assure you that im not a muslim or trying to convert anyone from sikhi. The title does say convert to islam but you will see the sentance ends in a question mark which suggests this is a question. If i were making a statement i would have ended the sentance with an exclamation mark.

Yes i have used the word 'aimed' because from the flier and letter you can clearly see that it is aimed at women. It says it in black and white!

In terms of working for the islamic community, you couldnt be more wrong. Me and my family have been working hard to stop these radical islamic societies from preaching their evil at uni's. We have been to the awareness meetings at the local Guru Ghar recently, including the last one at wednesfield gurudawara (which was on sunday if you didnt know). I have personally come to blows with some of these fanatics (it was a while ago when i was at uni) but am not afraid to stand up for whats right, which is my Gurus word.

I have travelled to southall and to ek niwas (on more than one occasion) to do what i can to help stop beadbi. I went to the funerals at sedgley street gurudawara of the young nau jawaans that died at the lake district. So please be assured that im not a p4k1 and trying to convert anyone.

The reason for my post was to make people aware of the tactics that these people are using to get people into their clutches before they start converting. I would like to know why this is aimed only at women and not everyone, if its all above board. Also from the flier you can see it says there will be people there who have recently converted to islam. Why? whats that got to do with womens equality in islam. Again, this is my personal opinion, but i do think that this event is to sweeten up the people that attend on the day with an 'aim' of converting them to islam.

I agree that both of the topics i have posted are controversial but they are also important. The first one was about beadbi at sunderland gurudawara and this one is about converting to islam. Both topics were to make our community aware of whats going on around us. whether we do anything about it is up to us individually.

If you are still not convinced that im not a mullar in disguise then i would be happy to meet you, or anyone else, at any local gurudawara in the west mids cus thats where im from.

Bhul chuk maaf karnee

      Traveling in Punjab independently and safely (need good advice)

      By BhForce · Posted

      Umm, that's totally irrational, bro. There are plenty of prakash-dara Singhs in Punjab (less than we'd like, but still plenty). No one cares that you are sabat soorat. It isn't 1986. You can walk around in chola, kurta-pajama, or jeans. Whatever. If you want the look @dallysingh101 is referring to, just go into a cheap clothing shop (not a Western-style mall) and buy some shirts for 250 rupees or a track suit for 2000 rupees. You'll get the cheap stuff made in some sweatshop in Bombay.

      Concept of Sin

      By MokhamSingh · Posted

      The Mind is Jyot Saroop (Waheguru), but the mind is under the influence of five evils… Through Naam Simran( Rememberance), the mind will begin to detach from evil, and get back to its original form ( MANN TU JYOT SAROOP HEH)… Until the mind breaks free from the five evils, one will go through the cycle of paap and punn….which leads to Karma… Naam Simran destroys past karma, and prevents new karma coming into fruition… I did this, I did that… This non realisation of the Jyot Saroop gives rise to paap and Punn, which in turn gives birth to suffering and misery…

      Concept of Sin

      By BhForce · Posted

      I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124

      Fake Baba

      By BhForce · Posted

      That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.

      Fake Baba

      By Singh1989 · Posted

      Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!!
