916 is NOT about Anwar...
916 is NOT about Dollah or Najib...
916 is also NOT about those tiny weeny little things...
But 916 is about:
No 1
The ISA is against Islam for it violates the principles of truth and justice as mentioned in the Holy Book of Al-Qur'an in Chapters An-Nisa', As-Syura, and An-Nahl, verses 58, 15 and 90 respectively. To arrest and detain a person only and only on the basis of suspicion and without trial, without opportunity to defend oneself is forbidden and considered haram in Islam.
Even if the Government wishes to detain a person for preventive purposes, the matter must be decided in an open court. Detention without trial - without the opportunity to defend oneself in an open court - violates the rights and denies the guarantee that Islam provides to all individuals. The guarantee is that everyone has a right to freedom and well-being.
To be continued....

What 916 is about, the intro...
Just sharing something that I posted in my email group.
I started this thread in an attempt to exhibit, the fact that there are more than just one point of view - and that as much as one would believe that his/her point of view is the correct one and built on sound logic and facts (although some continuously failed to justify his/her point of view when we start requesting for factual based arguments instead of mere rhetorics) - others may have his/hers different view also built on what he/she believes supported by sound logic and facts too. And this was even necessisated by the fact that some of us are still insisting that what they cannot fathom, must then be based on pure emotions, hoodwinking of a certain skillful orator, being taksub with a certain organisation or leaders etc - most to the complete exclusion of the fact that us, being the top 15% (or is it 5%) of Malaysian population (in term of education level), do possess 'real capabilities' of thinking, observing, judging etc on events, facts, information etc etc.
This is especially so considering that my recent comment was 'bombarded' with the label of being a 'nonsense', 'no-brain' and 'idiot' etc... Has it not cross our mind, that some of us do have his/her own points of view, and then choose to fight or supports the organisation or organisations that resembles his/her points of view as oppossed to having a point of view a a result of supporting a certain organisation/organisations? From the point of 'leaders' (at least in thoughts and ideas, if not physically) as opposed to a position of mere 'followers'?
No less important is the fact that this egroup members are made up 100% of us who claims to be muslims, even for some, to the level of using the term 'pejuang-pejuang Islam'. By the definition of a muslim - thus can be deduced that we too will have to take the Al-Quran (incl. of Ahadiths, Qias, Ijma' Ulama etc) as the highest authority in all aspects of our lives - the book being the Al-Huda (petunjuk), Al-Furqan (yang membezakan yang hak dengan yang bathil), dan Al-Bayyinah (yang menerang dan memperjelaskan).
Afterall, is it not our ikrar 5 times a day that we say "innasolaati, wanusuki, wamahyaaya, wamamati, lillahi rabbil alamiin". And that, after admitting very well God's command of "udkhulu fissilmi kaaffah". And our doa in our solat in no less than 17 times a day of "ihdina ssiraat almustaqiim", to be shown the way of the "allazhina an'amta alai him" and not those of "maghthuubi alai him" nor "adhoolliin"?
As there were also so many reasons for me personally, on what 916 symbolizes (whether it will all come thru or not), I started first with the one that is closest to what's current in the news - thus, the choice of my stand on ISA - hoping then to continue with others in the list. However as the discussion on ISA seems to be quite a hot one, I will try then to explain/respond to some comments on the issue, and perhaps return to the continuation of the list at a later date.
Hope the above will help clarify my position, for those interested.....
