    Perhaps, but there are lots of Islamic Research Academies, which this one no longer calls itself.

    Google doesn't have an Al-Azhar El-Sharief Islamic Research Academy, just refs to the Al-Azhar El-Sharif Islamic Research Academy.

    THIS

    Also, what's the sauce on this document? And has anyone else wondered why there are postage stamps on the doc itself? Every country I've ever been to puts them on the front of the envelope, that's how paid postage works. I smell a $cifake.

    We need to know the provenance of this document before allegations are made.
    Was it published by the CoS?
    Where is the original image taken from?

    The Al-Azhar website uses both spellings for sharif

    OP here. First of all, suck a dick bitch. No one here is playing their game. The reason the title is versed the way it is, is because it was versed in such a manner, and presented the same way to scientologists, from scientologists.

    What we can use this for, is not clap in tact with the scifags about how much approval they got, it is to make sure that the people who are being used in the propaganda can be made aware hereof, and to make sure that their bullshit is being countered, and their every whisper is put out in the light of day and taken apart as the bullshit it is, piece by piece.

    And now untill you start diving down the rabbit hole and come up with leaks and shit, why don't you have a nice sit down and let the adultz pull their dicks at this for a while.

    Re: Breaking: Islamic Research Academy approves Scientology!

    Interesting. Normally I would say Sharief / Sharif, meh. Pretty common phonetical english spelling.

    The bigger question is which Al-Azhar El-Sharief and/or Islamic Research Academy is this? There is one in Egypt and I believe a few other al-Azhar's and many many Islamic Research academys.

    There was one al-Azhar with like a few hundred million budget. I don't think that is the Eqypt one though.

    Easiest way to figure this out would be to post this on a muslim forum, and ask them for their help, I'm sure they are more than willing to help us figure it out, to warn their fellow muslims.

    This site is interesting in that it gives the history of the Al-Azhar University, includes a statement by the "Islamic Research Academy" on Pope Benedict's 2006 speech mentioning an ancient story offensive to muslims and links to the Grand Imam who signed that statement.

    MoarXenu to the thread, if you please?

    The document is shooped, which does not prove original does not exist. Could be they shooped it to make it more aesthetically pleasing. i.e. decorate it wif some stamps and shit. Not uncommon to recreate a doc for presentation purposes to remove the pesky folds or blotches on a letter, or to make the text clearer(what reads well in a doc for print usually doesn't read well directly translated to the web or an email), or simply to make it "prettier".

    also, did anyone mention sauce on this? I musta missed it.
  14. Re: Breaking: Islamic Research Academy approves Scientology!

    You may be right. I lived in Dubai for a year and it is illegal for Christians to recruit. They have arrested missionaries before. I can't remember if they jailed them or just deported them. I would not be surprised if this was a hoax. But I also suspect that muslims don't know about Scientology, otherwise the Ayatola for one would declare a Jihad for his for his comments about Mohammed (I'm not sure how seriously they would take the fishman affadavit, though, because obviously it has been obscured - or ocCULTed, if you prefer)

    I have thought about a jihad on Scientology before, and I have also thought that a muslim sponsor/host for our audio and other leaks so that they can't be take down would be useful. In Dubai, Sheikh Mohammed is now supreme ruler, and no Scientology court would ever be able to take him to court. If he were interested in hosting a single online resource for anonymous that could have permanent links, it could be very good for anonymous.

    Sometimes they're clued in on the shell games with front groups. I'll bet that YHRI and TWTH don't have much luck either.

    Egypt jails two Scientologists March 5, 2002, UPI, Human Rights Without Frontiers
    Note that Human Rights Without Frontiers is a legit group, and they are going to approach this from the human right viewpoint. (Too bad they don't look at human rights within, say, the Sea Org.)

    Re: Breaking: Islamic Research Academy approves Scientology!

    OP has explained to me how they came across this document and why they wish to keep that secret (in order to maintain the open channel). Any approach the the Islamic Research Academy should ask whether or not the document is genuine, in addition to making whatever representations about the concerns one might have about its content.

    Re: Breaking: Islamic Research Academy approves Scientology!

    Since I was called to the thread by TD, here is my take.

    The most telling facts are that Ghulam Nabi Mastoi is from Dubai and is probably Pakistani. Neither Ghulam nor Mastoi are common Arabic names. Ghulam is often found among names in Persian and Urdu in Pakistan.

    The significance of Dubai is that it extremely open and has lots of money. The LRHcakefags in the pic are ethnically mixed, but note the woman in the Pakistani costume and also European UK and US dudes. One question is: who started this in Dubai? Are these ex-pat publics? And where is the OSAbot is this pic?

    As for the doc I am not sure of its authenticity. I actually could be authentic. In his world-dominator grandiosity LRH explicitly exempted TWTH from his "sacred scriptures". It is a jejeune, lowest common dominator moral code. That is to say, it is conceivably consonant with some Islamic values.

    al-Azhar is like the Oxford University of Egypt which has continued to be a major center of Islamic learning. Remember the Oxford Capacity Test? Same resonance as al-Azhar. I suspect it is genuine, however, and was purchased at a price. If not, it is the usual OSAfaggotry.

    TWTH has now shown up in four places in the Middle East: Lebanon, Israel, the West Bank, and, now, Dubai. What they have in common is they are among the socially freest in the Middle East.

    There is a sci video of a Palestinian woman gushing about TWTH providing hope for settlement of the Palestinian - Israeli conflict. There is a similar doc from Lebanon sci touts.

    It is laughable. It features a letter from some Leb govt flunky saying TWTH is ok to import into Lebanon.

    OSA faces a problem in the Middle East: it cannot send in the VM's. There would be social revolt among Muslims in conservative countries. So TWTH is the wedge until they can establish Dianetics Missions, then bring in the VM's.

    I think an effective harpooning strategy is this:

    1. Muslim forums
    2. The ministry of Health and all professional mental health groups in Dubai, particularly psychs
    3. The German Embassy in Dubai

    The greatest social threat to Middle Eastern societies is assault on psychology by the "Anti-psychiatry hate group".

    The second is it's intent to destroy Shariah law and replace it with Hubbard Ethics. The reference here is the German decision to put sci under surveillance 1887 which explicitly mentions this.

    This is equivalent to telling Catholics the group intends to abolish Canon Law, and Jews, the Talmud. This is why I recommend cc'ing the German ambassador in Dubai saying, "Check with him if you want to know what sci is up to. It is on the front page of the site of the Office of the Defense of the Constitution along with Islamorad terrorists."

    Harpooning:

    This effort is not coming from Dubai Muslims. It is coming from Pakistani Muslims living in Dubai. So the most effective forum we could harpoon is a forum frequented by Pakistani Muslims in Dubai or as near to that as we can get.

    The whole business about al-Azhar in Egypt has nothing to do with this. The doc is to impress Pakistani Muslims in Dubai so we might as well take it at face value. We shouldn't waste time about its authenticity.

    Here are some talking points for harpooning:

    Social:

    - Destruction of mental health systems
    - Destruction of Shariah law
    - Destruction of school systems

    Theological:

    - Shirk: this is the greatest sin in Islam. Moar below.
    - Destruction of shariah law
    - Sci lies about the compatibility of Islam
    - Elder abuse
    - Blasphemous insults to the Prophet (pbuh)

    This should be sufficient to enraeg Muslims.

    Shirk: this is the sin of associating anything human with God such as saints, sacred objects other than the Quran, magic, and the occult.

    In sci, "There is no god but Hubbard, and Hubbard is his prophet." The central category is not God, but the thetan. Thetans are, like God, eternal, without beginning and without end. This is Islamic blasphemy as is Hubbard replacing God with himself.

    Elder abuse: The Prophet (pbuh) was an orphan, thus there is a huge Islamic cultural, social, and religious imperative to help widows and orphans. Furthermore Islamic societies with the exception of Bosnia are still largely traditional and patriarchal. They respect elders and it unthinkable to abandon the elder members of your family and clan.

    Anonymous, you know what to do,.
  18. TinyDancer Member

    Re: Breaking: Islamic Research Academy approves Scientology!

    Moar, your post is valuable in the EXTREME.

    The only issue I'd take with what you've said is this: the document gives us an opportunity to make contact with al-Azhar and to provide information about how TWTH is considered by Scientology as a strategic means to get in other teachings of Hubbard to the society.
  19. lothar Member

    Re: Breaking: Islamic Research Academy approves Scientology!

    It's good for the topics to bring up, but I would leave Shariah law abolishing out of it. I doubt any living or dead scilon has every mentioned this, and you can also make the case that Hubbard ethics can live alongside Shariah laws.

    It also makes your argument look weaker when you appear to be grasping for straws by trying alarmist arguments like attacking Shariah. I think wanting to open up offices to sell their religious books is good enough reason. They prey upon people at their most torubled times and try to extract as much money as they can.

    Definately the school system stuff and also throw in a 'religion based on a 50s sci-fi author paranoid writings'.

    Re: Breaking: Islamic Research Academy approves Scientology!

    Hmm... me thinks you don't know the depth and breadth of Shariah law.

    Shariah law includes civil and criminal law. It's not just "a personal thing". It's cultural, and governmental in many areas.

    Hubbardian ethics and justice codes are not compatible with Shariah law. For one, Hubbard forbids any Scientologist to report outside of Scientology any crime or civil dispute, and forbids approaching any civil or criminal outside organization to obtain justice outside of Scientology.

    This means: no police, no courts, no suing, no reporting to the Labor Dept, no calling the cops when your husband beats you, in some cases even divorces are put on hold until "agreements" are made within Scientology; no having your lawyer write a letter to your fellow scientologist demanding payment long past due; no threatening to call the cops if the redge doesn't get off your lawn.

    Getting the picture yet?

    Any semblence of Shariah law would be an "outside justice" to Scientology.

    And muslims get pretty testy about anyone coming between them and the practice of their faith, even if that means someone coming between them and their LAW.

    Don't mix up Shariah law with what the TV media blab about... terrorist factions attempting to drag pakistanis/afghans back into the Middle Ages. That's not a fair picture of what Shariah law is.

    Google is your friend.
  21. TinyDancer Member

    Re: Breaking: Islamic Research Academy approves Scientology!

    I think the point you are making has to do with Scientology's grand scheme to replace all other legal systems (not necessarily mentioning Sharia law). It's a decent point. Perhaps a referral to the German government report would suffice?

    In German: http://www.stmi.bayern.de/imperia/md/content/stmi/service/publikationen/das_system_scientology.pdf

    In English (without the graphics): http://www.stmi.bayern.de/imperia/m...fassungsschutz/scientology/system_so_engl.pdf

    Both links are to a German Government website.

    From the scientology ethics book.

    If is a suppressive act to do any of the above. If you commit suppressive acts, you can be expelled from scientology.

    So anyone testifying in a shariah law court would be kicked out of scientology.

    If that's not an incentive to NOT use shariah law, then I dunno what is.

    Muslims take note: Scientology is NOT compatible with Islam.

    You guys are creative. That Scientology Handbook picture tells exactly where Hubbard and David Miscavige places Scientology in comparison to all religions.

    I seem to recall some other lectures where Hubbard talks about Scientology being senior to other religions, but I don't recall where that is.
