This is a very brave man - a true humanist - and I wish him well.

I really like this wise man Dr. Abd Al-Hamid Al-Ansari, former dean of the Faculty of Islamic Law at the University of Qatar!!!

Loving all of humanity as the translator put it is a step in the right direction of peace, but it totally misunderstands the purpose of peace. If the problem is in being the enemy of life, a proponent of death, which I am incredibly pleased to hear him say, it must be said that peace sometimes leads to death, rather than life. Love is even worse. If you love someone for being human, you love him by default, regardless of his quallities as an individual. You do yourself, nor him, any service.

join al qaeda?! in fact he instructed his wives 2 have his children get da best education especially in europe or 2 hire european and american teachers to tutor his kids. so in other words, his kids r 2 precious 2 die for allah's sake but its OK to brainwash poor afghan and arab kids to fight america and die.

we muslims really need 2 think critically and ponder over y our countries r backward and miserable instead of blaming everything on america and israel.

destruction-----unless we do that, we will always remain poor,divided,hungry,illeterate­,uncivilized,diseased and backwards

and now we muslims have seen the true face of bin laden whose will was published in a saudi newspaper in which he told his wives to not 2 remarry and that he does not want any of his children to join al qaeda and fight da west. this is hypocrisy of the highest degree---if jihad and fighting america is such a noble thing, then y does he not want his children to

im a muslim and i support this muslim intellectual professor for his rationality,common sense and humanity. we muslims shud open up debate and dialogue even with foes such as jews and israelis instead of obsessing about strapping bombs on our youth to blow up israelis or americans. we need to live for our islamic values of tolerance,rationalilty, free thinking, freedom of assembly and speech, scientific progress and arts and culture. we need 2 reform our thinking. we need 2 empower our youth and

PLease don't tell me that you're one of those that's trying to rename the persian gulf. Before the arabic language existed, the persians controled that water way. The persian have controled the north bank of the persian gulf, as well as the straight of hormus for thousands of years. It's not because a few khaligis found some oil, got rich and now think they are bad ass that they can rename it.

They owned it, and they still own it! PErsian gulf baby.

I've commented on Dr Al-Hamid Al-Ansari before. I think he has restored my postive outlook on humanity. The man is an intellectual giant.
