Editorial
AssalamuAlaikumAlhamdulillah, finally we have finalized the October~December 2008 issue of WPMagazine. It was a daunting task to find quality articles and interviews fromexperts and compile them in-line with Islamic perspectives.This issue has covered one of the key topics of this time – terrorism and itsconsequences. We had the plan to collect articles based on regions, the nature ofterrorism and its effect on Muslims around or Islam, and its overall impact on thesociety. However, we failed to achieve this goal as not enough quality write-upswere in our hands this time. Hence, we concentrated on the topic – Terrorism andits Islamic perspectives. We hope that readers will get some information fromthese excellent articles and wonderful interviews. The last two articles arebasically based on two excellent books: “Islam Denounces Terrorism” by HarunYahya, and “Islamic Awakening between Rejection and Extremism” by Yusuf AlQaradawi. We strongly recommend that readers will carefully read the books,which are available online to download. We have one reader’s opinion at the end.You are also welcome to give your comment or feedback.We humbly thank to the authors for their kind efforts to write for this magazineand for their interviews. We request readers to spread the information of thismagazine to as many people as possible.
