Abstract

Islam is the complete code of life because there is not any single dimension related to human beings which had not been touched. Before 14 hundred years Muslim had human rights, so saying that human rights is a kind of new phenomenon its wrong and incomplete sentence. Some so called intellectuals used to criticize and blaspheme the picture of Islam in the sense that Islam is not a good religion it has not given rights to its followers and it is somehow rigid, it's totally wrong. Some anti Islamic people believes that Islam is the curse in the world don't go for it. Some says that world is in mess and doldrums situations it's because of Islam and Muslims. Moreover, it is also the belief of some of the anti Islamic forces that terrorism across the globe is prevalent because of Islam and Muslims. This paper is an attempt to challenge all anti Islamic views. And to examine the bunch of rights which Islam has given to human beings? And to justify that Islam is the real custodian and guardian of human rights. And to prove that all anti Islamic challenges are nothing but chimera and myth of the anti Islamic forces over Islam and Muslims.

Abstract

Terrorism is the major hindrance in today's global arena. Across the globe people are facing problems due to this menace. Here in this context I want mention that religion and terrorism are opposed to each other, because no religion of the world allow to its followers to become terrorists. It is the religion which is based on human values, good teachings, tolerant principles and moral values. Therefore, to blame any religion is nothing but the direct blame on its followers which is totally an anti democratic and anti secular slogan. Islam from its beginning was the religion based on peace, world brotherhood, equality, social justice and tolerant in spirit. It never allows to crush humanity rather, it was always a protectionist umbrella for entire humankind.

Abstract

The Kashmir conflict was created by the partition of the Indian subcontinent in 1947 when India and Pakistan two dominions were created. The freedom movement in Kashmir may be seen in the context of social, political, economic, educational and cultural situation, which prevailed in the late 19^th and 20^th centuries. The appalling conditions of people, who were mostly Muslims, compelled them to rise in revolt against the feudal rule of Maharaja. They did it through several uprisings in the early 20^th century. Kashmir became as a conflicted area since 1947. In addition, the militancy came into existence in 1989. Its major reason was the rigging of election in 1987. Kashmiris as a tiny nation were always treated like slaves; they have been marginalized and deprived However, the marginalization and deprivation of Kashmiris in socio, economic, political, educational, cultural and other fields caused a cycle of violence in paradise. Kashmir has thousands of untold stories of killings, torture, injustices, injuries, prisoners, detentions, missings, massacre, barbarism, encounters, suicides, economic deprivations, arson, burning of houses above all inhuman treatment with Kashmiris. It can be said that alienation of people of Kashmir can only be controlled when; they will be treated like human beings not like slaves. India can win hearts of people, when it will respect the dignity of every person in Kashmir. Moreover, people of Kashmir can only survive under democratic umbrella not under the umbrella of draconian laws, huge military forces and other martial laws. It is better for India as a major democracy to safeguard and protect the special rights of Kashmiris that have already been given to them under Indian Constitution, but these rights were curtailed and minimized through the process of centralization and over centralization. The policy makers of India should not forget the agreement of Sheikh Abdullah with Jawaharlal Nehru that is Persian couplet " Mantu Shudi Tu Manshudam" it means that you have become me and I have become you. Peace could be only established in valley of Kashmir when justice will be given to the people of Kashmir. Therefore, greater autonomy is the best solution of Kashmir imbroglio. Misuse of power is not a better option to control the situations in Kashmir rather humanistic policies are needed to be practiced because, Kashmiris are not animals but they are also human beings, so that they must be treated like humans. Peaceful Kashmir can be seen only when India, Pakistan and Kashmiris will adopt the conflict resolution and conflict management mechanism, forget past animosities and start a new steps for peacebuilding process and be ready to sort-out the longstanding conflict. May god show us peaceful Kashmir without any conflict and antagonism?

Abstract

Globalization is often exclusively associated with worldwide economic integration and the emergence of a borderless global market. However, globalization also involves sweeping changes on the social, cultural and political terrains. Globalization is not an inclusive or progressive form of internationalism. Rather, it is the successful expansion on a world scale of particular localisms of social, economic, and political organization, which are neo-liberal and capitalist in character. The mix of material and ideological elements that make this expansion possible makes globalization a hegemonic process. Nor does globalization create or encourage economic freedom, opportunities, and choice at all levels; rather it is more akin to a monoculture of ideas, politics, and economic models. The major consequences of globalization have been: the transmogrification of traditional religions and belief systems; the beginning of the disintegration of the traditional social fabrics and shared norms by consumerism, cyber-culture, newfangled religions and changing work ethics and work rhythms; the fast spreading anomie forcing an ever increasing number of individuals to fall back upon the easily accessible pretentious religious banalities, and attributing to religion the creation and acceleration of extremist, fundamentalist and terrorist tendencies in the third world countries. To sum up, culture as a way of human life is constantly undergoing change. Certain developments in modem times have helped to accelerate this process of change in an exponential manner involving two major consequences: (a) reduction in cultural diversity; and (b) increasing hegemonic control in the name of free trade and freedom of communication, at all levels. The implications of this change are varied and there are no indications that they are in any way increasing the social, material or spiritual well-being of humanity. Finally, it can be said that every culture of world was affected by one way or other in terms of its influence and identity. Only one culture dominates that is western culture. Western culture also dominates due to power approach of Western World. Today, every culture of the world is under the umbrella of Western culture, It was always interest of West to rule over the world especially to marginalize the developing world. West becomes successful in its mission by implementing a slogan that was globalization. Through this process West projected, its own culture, polity, economy, values, across the globe etc.
