Pakistan cleric Shaykh-ul-islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri, the founder of the Minhaj-ul-Quran International organization, delivers a keynote speech at the launch of the Islamic Curriculum on Peace and Counter Terrorism in London, Tuesday, June 23, 2015. The curriculum is described by the organizers of the event as a syllabus that provides material to form the basis of educational programs and campaigns against religious extremism and radicalization, and for the promotion of peace.
He said the fact that about 700 Britons have travelled to Syria and Iraq, a 17-year-old from northern England blew himself up in Iraq a few days ago in an IS suicide attack and three British Pakistani sisters are believed to have travelled to Syria with their nine children means that the issue of radicalisation of the young people online and on the ground in Britain and elsewhere is a serious matter which can be defeated through the promotion of true teachings of Islam. He said that the recruitment by terror groups such as IS must be stopped through a counter peace campaign.
A Muslim cleric in the UK has launched a first of its kind Islamic cirruculam that confronts terrorist groups such as Islamic State (Isis) that brainwash youths using texts from Quran. Muhammad Tahir ul Qadri, a promient Islamic scholar, has penned down 10 books in English, Arabic and Urdu to counter the terror groups which use Islamic texts to radicalise Muslims. UK based Islamic organisation Minhaj-ul Quran International (MQI) launched a set of books in the UK on 23 June as part of its campaign aimed at discouraging gullible teenagers from travelling to Syria and Iraq to join the Isis.
At least 700 British people are thought to have travelled to the Middle East to join jihadist organisations, and the influence of extremism in the UK has become a growing concern. A new curriculum is being launched to help tackle the radicalisation of young Muslims. It is hoped that the syllabus will provide the tools they need to recognise extremist ideology before people travel abroad.
On the 23rd of June, Shaykh-ul-Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri delivered his keynote speech during the official launch of the Islamic Curriculum on Peace and Counterterrorism. In attendance were official guests, including Baroness Sayeeda Warsi, Brigadier Paul Harkness, Khalid Mahmood MP, along with eminent Islamic scholars from around the UK.
Five years after he grabbed headlines globally with his acclaimed 2010 book "Fatwa on Terrorism and Suicide Bombings", noted Islamic scholar Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri has come out what he calls "first" Islamic counter-terrorism curriculum. Targeted at school and university students, imams and clerics initially across the UK and Pakistan and to be launched in London on Tuesday, Dr Qadri said the curriculum is part of the campaign to dissuade vulnerable teenagers from travelling to Iraq and Syria to join the jihadist outfit ISIS.
LONDON, England - David Cameron's speech on radicalisation has no doubt highlighted some valid points about tackling the ISIS narrative but the fact is that the majority of Muslims unequivocally condemn ISIS and terrorism. Tomorrow morning, 23rd June, at a press conference in Westminster, London, the renowned and mainstream Muslim scholar Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri will launch a Global Anti-ISIS 'counter terrorism curriculum' condemning ISIS and terrorist ideology.
For the first time, a mainstream scholar Shaykh-ul-Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri has taken the initiative to confront ISIS and other terrorist groups head on using the texts which the terror groups misuse to brainwash, radicalise and recruit young Muslims. Dr Tahir-ul-Qadri has worked tirelessly to challenge attacks on Islam and Muslims throughout his life. In 2015, he has authored more than 10 new English books to present the true image of Islam and to counter extremism and to promote peace and love.
Last weekend, 50 young British Muslims converged to the leafy surroundings of Kidderminster to be trained for counter-extremism work. Their purpose was to learn how to weed out emergent religious extremism from its ideological and theological roots, and therefore to prevent young people from being brainwashed into leaving their homes to join barbaric terrorist groups abroad. I, along with the other organisers, have watched with some sense of bewilderment and a deep sense of sadness as seemingly academically bright boys and girls and young adults elope to the Middle East as potential jihadi brides or would-be jihadi Johns.
For the first time, a UK based Islamic organisation has taken the initiative to confront ISIS head on using the texts which the terror groups misuse to radicalise and recruit young British Muslims. Minhaj-ul Quran International (MQI), a UK based community organisation that works to counter extremism and for the promotion of peace and tolerance is due to launch the first Islamic 'counter-terrorism curriculum' on the 23rd of June at Central Hall, Westminster.
Muslim Youth League declares Jihad against ISIS
Muslim Youth League UK (MYL), an active UK based Islamic youth organisation, has declared an ideological war against ISIS and other terrorist groups. Issuing a 7-point declaration on the 27th of March, at an event in Glasgow, they claimed the terrorist groups have 'no link with Islam or the Muslim community'. The Youth League represents young Muslims from around the UK and works actively to promote unity and tolerance. It hopes to embolden other Muslim organisations to issue similar declarations that unequivocally condemn extremism.
Nation facing consequence of employing ‘the unemployed’ of Afghan Jihad: Dr Hussain Mohi-ud-Din Qadri
Addressing the third-day ceremony being held under the banner of Bazm-e-Minhaj COSIS, Dr Hussain Mohi-ud-Din Qadri has said that the nation is suffering the result of ‘employing the unemployed of Afghan Jihad in religious seminaries’. He said that leaders preempt the crises before they explode and find solutions to them, adding that the leaders of today do not even know anything even after the crises are past.
Unfortunately there is an over representation of Muslims in prison constituting more than 14% which is over 12,000 Muslim prisoners in Britain’s jails, whereas the Muslim population of the UK constitutes less than 4%. Mr Michael Spurr, head of the Prison and Probation Service for England and Wales, told the BBC Panorama that “there is a 'significant risk' of Muslim inmates becoming radicalised.”

PAT chief Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri has made it clear that unless foreign funding is banned, it will not be possible to eliminate terrorism. He said that foreign funding to seminaries reflects criminal negligence of successive governments that failed to discharge their responsibility for reasons of expediency and narrow interests. He said that all governments of past are equally responsible for mushroom growth of extremism and radicalism in the country.

Dr Qadri said "This is a barbaric attack and an a brutal act of terrorism by misguided criminals."
