In the "Building Moderate Muslim Networks" post i said that the RAND report is trying to manipulate the concept of Moderate Muslim to make it fit the US interests, and i thought that would practically be unachievable for some simple reasons. The main one, is that awareness about Islam's own nature would protect many Muslims from falling in to the "Moderate" trap.
However, this weekend i was turned down!
I spent like 3 days with a friend of mine, the guy is great as well as his Sufi father !!
What i liked about his father is that he prayed on time and kept his daily recitation of Quran without delay; i liked that in him, for me he is a good Muslim (while not considering anything else)
We had some chat about Sufism and how somethings contradict the basics of regular Sunni Islam .. One time he told me: Our Shiekh says, I am free from (not related by anymeans to) this man who do one of these three things: leave his daily recitation (doxology), disobey his parents, or participate in politics!
And now, I knew that RAND might come true one day ... his Shiekh orders then not to get near politics by anymeans, well let magic do things then!!
