European Muslims

Alija Izetbegovich wrote in the book I Flee to Freedom: "If it weren't for night, we wouldn't see the shining stars in the night sky. The night flooded our vision, but exposed its own mystery. "

Former Bosnian President Izetbegovic devoted his life to restoring the legitimate rights of Muslims in Europe. He died of a heart attack in Sarajevo on June 65438+1October 65438+September 2003 at the age of 78. Muslims in Europe, as well as Muslims all over the world, mourn him and pray for God to raise his rank in heaven.

Yize 1925 was born in a Muslim village in northeast Bosnia. Unlike other parts of Europe, people there are all Muslims. Islam was first introduced from Spain and has a history of more than 600 years. After World War I, the Ottoman Empire, which protected them, was forced to return to Turkey, where it was invaded by the Nordic Orthodox Serbs. The life of Muslims is getting worse every day, because Serbs are determined to destroy Muslims there by contacting European countries in other regions. Yize was born in this era. As soon as he was born, he heard the invasion and harassment of foreigners, and there were robberies, killings and imprisonment of Muslims everywhere.

His father is a bookstore owner in that small town, a devout Muslim, forced by life, and his family moved to Sarajevo in the 1930s. It used to be the historical and cultural capital of Muslims, which was carved up by many western countries and carried out comprehensive westernization education for Muslims. Therefore, Ize entered a German school from the beginning.

In the school where the Islamic faith was oppressed, he found a secret organization-the Islamic Students' Union. They often meet in a secret place and listen to the elderly students who came back from studying in Egypt to explain Islamic knowledge, which inspired young Ezelle's thoughts. At the same time, he also heard the news that many Islamic countries demanded freedom of belief and national independence. Izer is determined to fight for Islam. He studies all kinds of foreign languages carefully at school. Before he was admitted to the University of Sarajevo, he skillfully used three major European languages: German, English and French. Later, in order to learn Islam, he mastered Arabic skillfully.

He took liberal arts and law courses at university, and he is still an active member of the Secret Muslim Alumni Association. He often studies and discusses Islamic knowledge together. They realize that Islam is not a simple religion, but a comprehensive social civilization and lifestyle. Their goal is not narrow nationalism, but to let the world see the light of Islam. He often openly debated with philosophy professors and criticized their atheistic views and Darwinism popular in Europe, but he was repeatedly warned by the school and finally got a diploma in the name of commercial law.

194 1 In April, German fascists invaded Yugoslavia and occupied Sarajevo. The Muslim Students' Union specially discussed the thoughts and theories of German fascism, and finally vowed never to be a conquered person, never to accept bribes and deception from fascism, and to use the opportunity to fight for the rights of Muslims.

The victory of World War II, but the map of Europe was redrawn in the struggle between the West and the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia was brought into the sphere of influence of the Soviet Union, and an alliance led by the * * * production party was established. Yugoslavia is a multi-ethnic alliance, with more than 20 nationalities speaking 14 different languages, including several Muslim provinces, such as Kosovo and Bosnia. 1946, the young Izetbegovic was found to have joined an Islamic student organization by the intelligence agency of the Production Party, tried by a military court, put in prison, and later released to continue his university studies.

1953, Tito became the president of Yugoslavia, practiced strict * * * productism and severely suppressed the people who believed in Islam. But nominally, there is an official Islamic association in Yugoslavia, and Sheikh Hussein Duzu is the officially appointed president of the Islamic Association. Ize launched an active Muslim rights movement among Muslim youth, and kept in touch with Sheikh for legal protection. Ize has become a famous young Muslim movement leader in Yugoslavia.

When President Tito visited Egypt, Egyptian President Nasser asked Izetbovich, and President Tito replied, "It is more dangerous than the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt." Tito died on 1980. According to the Constitution of Yugoslavia, after the death of the President, Yugoslavia can take turns to govern the country and safeguard national unity and stability. In this chaotic period when various factions compete for leadership, Muslim youth organizations in Yugoslavia are also very active, striving to restore Muslim rights. Isott Bevich's son Bakr compiled his father's articles published over the years into an Islamic manifesto. This anthology immediately caused an uproar in Yugoslav politics. The quotation in the book proves that Ezelle is one of the most dangerous Islamic fundamentalists, and he intends to establish an Islamic country in the heart of Europe. Anti-Islamic forces at home and abroad joined forces to put pressure on Izz, who was arrested and imprisoned. After a hasty trial, Izz was sentenced to 14 years in prison.

In this long career behind bars, Ezelle kept thinking, deepened his understanding of Islam, and insisted on writing in secret in his cell. He thinks that the Islamic panic in Europe has a history of hundreds of years, and the campaign to completely eliminate Islam in Europe and ethnic cleansing of Muslims began as early as 100 years ago. He thought, if there is never a chance to get out of prison, I hope to spread his book, so that future generations of Muslims can understand the truth of Islam and hope that they can fight for Islam. His manuscript Islam in the East and the West, written in prison, was smuggled out of the prison and suddenly published in the United States in 1984. This is a profound study and comparison of eastern and western cultures, which proves the glitz and vanity of western civilization, while Islam is the enlightenment civilization of Allah's decline, persecution is a temporary ignorance, and Islam will surely win in the world. Islam represents the all-round civilization and progress of mankind. As long as the world practices real freedom of belief, the Islamic world will inevitably have a period of cultural, artistic, industrial and technological development. In prison, Ize was deprived of all freedom of movement, but in the outside world, his works were translated into many languages and widely circulated throughout the Muslim world. The dazzling light from the dark cell lit up the hearts of European Muslims and inspired his compatriots to fight for freedom and justice.

After the disintegration of the Yugoslav production party, the political situation was turbulent and the European powers launched a fierce diplomatic war. The Serbian regime has maintained close ties with Russia for historical reasons and Orthodox beliefs, while other political parties rely on the West, but no one can control the situation. Isotbevich was released because it was not easy to establish a fabricated accusation. He won the support of the people of Bosnia and Montenegro and established the Democratic Action Party. He participated in the political competition of multi-party system in Yugoslavia on behalf of Muslim society. 1990165438+1October19 was elected president of Bosnia.

In less than a year, the Yugoslav multi-party alliance mediated by foreign countries broke down, Croatia and Serbia declared independence, and ethnic conflicts and civil wars in the former Yugoslavia were on the verge. In order to avoid civil war, Ize proposed to establish an independent Yugoslav Federation, but it failed. Relying on Russian military assistance, the Serbs launched a brutal ethnic war in the Balkans, marched wildly, plundered 75% of the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and ethnically cleansed Muslims. Izetvic wants to maintain a complete Bosnia, because most residents are Muslims. However, he found that the support promised by the West was overestimated, and the results were all false empty words. Western European countries intervened, connived and supported Serbia's military strike and ethnic cleansing against Muslims in opposition to the establishment of Bosnia. At the same time, the western society carries out endless anti-Islamic propaganda and will never allow an independent Muslim country to emerge in Europe. Muslim urban and rural residents were brutally massacred by Serbian troops, and the death toll exceeded 350,000. Most of them were collectively shot by Muslim men, and tens of millions of Muslims were raped and sold. Izetbegovic was besieged and placed under house arrest in the presidential palace in Sarajevo, but insisted on leading the people's struggle.

Throughout the struggle, Ize gained the support of many Muslim countries through diplomatic channels. At the beginning of his diplomatic efforts, Bosnian Muslims received weapons, personnel and economic support from Iran, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Libya, Malaysia and Afghanistan. Later, NATO and the United States completely banned them, blocked customs and restricted their movements. Western countries do not allow any Muslim countries to have direct contact with Ize, and must hand over their aid materials and support funds to NATO to prevent Muslims in the former Yugoslavia from uniting with Muslims in the world. At the same time, the news media should be strictly controlled and words related to Islam should not be used. The words Algeria, Muslim and Kosovo must be used to describe them, because they are scattered, backward, poor and small tribal peoples without the same beliefs.

1995, the United States intervened and forcibly signed the Dayton Agreement, giving 49% of the land to the Serbs, and the remaining 5 1% was shared by Muslims and Croats, but Muslims were not allowed to form their own independent government. At the end of the war, the pressure exerted by western countries forced Ize to announce his resignation from the presidency and the party affairs of the Democratic Action Party for "health reasons". Western countries must control the Muslim society in the Balkans, not allowing them to appear in the name of Islam and not allowing them to turn over.

Isotevich devoted himself to the struggle of Muslims in Europe and was loved by the people of all ethnic groups in his country and recognized by the Muslim world. 1994 won the King Faisal Award; Won the World Islamic Hero of the Year Award in 200 1 year.
