Does God Love War?

Salaam
Tonight's program (Islamic Documentaries) on Channel 2, 7:00p.m.--8:00p.m. will be on the topic Does God Love War? by Hamza Yusuf. Synopsis: Have the teachers of our religions failed us? Or have we not been listening? From leaders of America's Christian Right seemingly forgetting that "Blessed are the Peacemakers," to Jewish rabbis watching unflinchingly as collective punishment is doled out to Arabs in Palestine, to Muslim jurists ruling that civilian victims are acceptable under a Just War, the three great Abrahamic faiths are increasingly facing accusations of ignoring the sanctity of life.
For a list of documentaries aired since May 2006, please visit zamals.com. There you will also come face to face with thought-provoking brochures and ads. Many enlightening conversations (phone, in-office) have resulted from these 3 sources of stimulation (TV, brochures and ads). May the Creator guide us to make this world a better place.

All progress has resulted from people who took unpopular positions.


YUGHNI (يُغْنِي) = HE IS ENRICHED/AVAILED
(ya', ghayn, nun, alif maqsurah)

Wa ma yughni `anhu maluhu idha taradda

92:11 Nor will his wealth profit him when he falls headlong into the Pit.

وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّى
