Pakistan and Kashmir shaken by eathquakes.

Pakistan and Kashmir have been devastated by the deadly earthquakes. It is estimated about 40,000 lives perished in the tragedy . It is heartening to hear of such disaster and more so they are all our Muslim brothers and sisters . Sometimes I wonder why Pakistan and Kashmir with the majority of the population are Muslims ,have to suffer the disaster this time especially during this Ramadhan .There could be a 'hikmah' or reason from God on why the tragedy this time has to be on the people of Pakistan and Kashmir .After some thought , I reckon that it could be a reminder from God not to conspire with the enemies of Islam . As we all know President Musharraf has been a US stooge in its campaign to destroy Islam .He has also been licking President's Bush's arse in return for a few thousands US dollars to help finance his shaky government . He is responsible for arresting a good number of mujahideens / freedom fighters and turning them over to his 'master' - the US resulting in them being detained without trial at the infamous Guantanamo Bay Prison .His sins does not end there , he is also responsible for the closure of a number of Madrasahs ( Islamic institution ) which was accused by the US for planting seeds of hatred against them and as training grounds for terrorism . As in Malaysia and other countries Madrasahs played a pivotal role in the dissemination of our religion Islam . This fact has been feared by the enemies of Islam which they believe could hamper their campaign to weaken and eventually to destroy the religion .Thousands of students including some from Malaysia had to abandon their studies . Other countries including Malaysia especially under Dr.Mahathir used the same reasons to clamp down on the Madrasahs activities . Thailand for that matter is trying her best to close down Madrasahs in Southern Thailand , as part of it's campaign to weaken Islam . Pakistan which was known as one of the favourite destinations for students of Islam, is left with nothing but stooges of the West . All the goings on in Pakistan could have infuriated God and as a signal to human kind made the earthquakes to happen . This is also a reminder to all Muslim countries especially the Arab kingdoms not to stoop so low to the West , more so to be lickers of their arse . These countries should be the guardian of Islam but instead allowed themselves to be used by the super powers as a tool to destroy another fellow Muslim country , as in the case of Afghanistan and Iraq. But Arabs being typical Arabs are well known for their lack of awareness on the importance of unity and solidairity among themselves .They are always suspicious of each other and can never remain united. That is the main reason for their defeat by Israel during the Gulf War of 1967 .Before the advent of Islam , the Arab community were known for their ruthlessness and lawlessness . If the religion of Islam did not come to them through Prophet Muhammad (pbh), they would have been worst than what they are known today . President Jamal Abdul Nasser of Egypt , President Haffiz al Assad of Syria and President Muammar Gadaffi of Libya tried to unite the Arab community but all failed . I suppose only a non Arab strong leader could unite them in the interest of Islam .
One would ask what is the part played by the OIC ( Organisation of Islamic Countries )to unite the Muslim countries ?As the name suggest " Oh, I see ." , I guess nothing much can be done as long as the Arabs are not united .They are the main obstacles to unity and solidarity .
Taking opportunity of this holy month of Ramadhan ,I pray so that God would guide leaders of Muslim countries to the right path and not to succumb to the lure of the enemies of Islam.
