MP David Davis MP said that Multiculturalism has always been defined and implemented
wrongly by the British establishment. Multiculturalism involves a level of
complexity which cannot be understood from the prospective of any single
discipline. Instead, historical, cultural, linguistic, political, economic,
educational, sociological and psychological factors and processes all play a
critical role. Multiculturalism is not about integration but about cultural
plurality. It is not about separation but about respect and the deepening
awareness of Unity in Diversity. Each culture will maintain its own intrinsic
value and at the same time would be expected to contribute to the benefit of the
whole society. Multiculturalism can accommodate diversity of all kinds
cultural, philosophical and religious, so that we can create a world without
conflict and strife. According
to labours Karen Buck, Muslims in Iftikhar Ahmad *************************************************************************** {Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.} (Holy Quran-16:125) {And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33) The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim] The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all." [Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah] -------------------------------------------------------------------------- All views expressed herein belong to the individuals concerned and do not in any way reflect the official views of IslamCity unless sanctioned or approved otherwise.
