Secularism: The Turkish Experience The struggle to balance worldly desires and demands against the promises and hopes of life in the afterworld, defines the essence of secularism in modern day Turkey. Turkey claims to be the only secular country in the Eurasia region with a 99 percent Muslim majority. What are the benefits, costs and risks associated with the Turkish way of secularism? How does the Turkish formula effect gender issues, politics, state-civil society relations and economy? Can Turkey offer an alternative answer for a secular system with a tolerant society for the rest of the world? Tags: |

বাংলাদেশ SECULARISM: Allama Sayeedi Tafseer Mahfil 2006, held in Chittagong. Allama Delwar Hossain Sayeedi is one of the most prominent religious telepreachers in Bangladesh. A very prominent Bangladeshi Islamic personality and politician, a former Member of Parliament and one of the most prominent leaders of the Islamic Jamaat-e-Islami Bangladesh. Here is a brief summary of the lecture: "Satan has mandated conventions exactly the opposite of what Allah has mandated. For example, Allah has sent the Quran and Sunnah as a complete code of life which includes code of conduct from personal life to governing the state. But as a counter, Satan has created Secularism.... Then he went on giving definition of secularism from different sources (in English). Then he summarized the definitions of secularism as (1), separation of religion from state and politics, (2), religion will be confined only to personal matters, (3), religion mandated regulations cannot be considered in state affairs, (4), in the Islamic world secularism should be implemented in such a way that it will only be useful in personal matters, (5), secularism requires separating society, economy and state completely from Islam. Afterwards he said secularism is poisonous and is a curse for mankind as it confines Islam only to personal life separating it completely from state affairs. Secularism is a man-made ideology that negates the ideology of Allah and therefore is a Kufr." Islam is the only code of life revealed by Allah, The Lord of the Universe. This code of life encompasses the whole gamut of human life. It does not only prescribe beliefs but also the norms of behaviour. Its guidance covers all spheres of human activities, both spiritual and material. Jamaat-e-Islami Bangladesh upholds Islam in its entirety, and aims at bringing about a revolution. It is opposed to all forms of violence. It aims at channelling the thoughts of the people to the right direction first. Then people of similar thinking have to be organised and trained up as able leaders and efficient workers of the Islamic movement.

Secularism and headscarfs in the European Union http://www.eux.tv France, like other European nations allows the wearing of the headscarf in universities. To reinforce secularism in 2004, France banned the wearing of overt religious symbols in state-run primary and secondary schools. That ban also applies in Alsace-Moselle, even though, for historic reasons, the region escaped a 1905 law separating the church and the state. Speaking are: Havva AYDIN, Student, Strasbourg University, in Turkish Sirin YAKUP, Student, Strasbourg University, in French Mohamed LATAHY, Member, Local Muslim Council, in French Eric SANDER, President, Local Law Institute, in French Bernard ANCLIN, President, "Laïcité d'accord", in French MEP Renate SOMMER (PPE-DE, DE), in German MEP Cem ÖZDEMIR (Greens/EFA, DE), in German MEP Benoît HAMON (PSE, FR), in French Rick TORFS, Professor, Leuven Catholic University, in French Samim AKGÖNÜL, Professor, Marc Bloch University (Strasbourg), in French. The program was produced for the European Parliament as part of the Eurinfo series. Tags: EUX EUX.TV secularism headscarf Islam European Union EU |
