What Kind of Yemen?

&MI=?OCHJ?OCHFF

The events taking place one after the other in the Islamic
world over the last few months are extraordinary developments
that all Muslims must think about deeply. Muslims, for decades,
have been oppressed by means of anti-democratic methods. Mus-
lims living in hunger and poverty because of unjust income dis-
tribution and being prevented from living by their faith, have
risen up against decades of continued repression and have

become instrumental in regime changes in Tunisia and Egypt.
One can view the lifting of pressure on Muslims and steps toward
democratization as being reasons for rejoicing; however, they are
not sufficient in bringing about the peace, security and well-
being that we hope for. In order for liberty, peace and security
to replace the oppression that has persisted for years in
many Islamic countries, it is essential for people to follow
the path revealed by God in the Qur'an and shown by our
Prophet (pbuh).
