Islam and Secularism

As countries in North Africa take steps toward democratic reform, Emory University law professor and Islam and human rights expert Abdullahi An-Na'im discusses the difficulties ahead, including whether Islamists should be shut out of politics and if Islam and secularism can co-exist.

[Mr.Jasaw]

Is this guy serious? Secular being neutral ? Secularism, just like neutrality or justice or righteousness or equality are empty words that are then filled in by the dominant values from a dominant ideology or ideologies in the process of smuggling in the values. So what we see today are the values of liberalism ( individualism, existentialism, utilitarianism, atheism so not Islam ) masqueradeing under the "neutral" words. I hope this guy realises how irrelevant and naive he is.

[9:5] But when the forbidden 4 months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war); but if they repent, and establish regular prayers and practise regular charity, then open the way for them: for Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Ali)]
