sOURCE: Two Circles
By Suhail Reza,
The founder of self reliant modern Malaysia, Mahatir Mohammad who snubbed the US and West to flex the muscles of his country on the path of progress in master-peace speech in OIC meet on in 2005 remarked on Arab Centredness vision, the delineation from rest of Muslim world affairs referred to OIC as “Oh, I See”.
Ironically, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), an umbrella body of fifty seven Muslim Countries feels, when it’s Secretary General, Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu appealed to Burmese politician Aung San Suu Kyi, the Nobel Peace Laureate and chairperson of the National League for Democracy in Burma seeking her help against holocaust of Rohingya Muslims. It is a shocking strange whether OIC Chief doesn’t know Aung Kyi? She wears the same boots what Army and Buddhist arsonist wear against ethnic cleansing of hapless
Muslim minority of Rohingya.
However, we feel that when oil was not drilled from the present day’s oilfields of GCC Countries, the matters were more compassionate to Muslim fraternity for other Muslims and elsewhere beyond Arab regions. It was the founding fathers of Kingdom of Saudi Arabia who were so sympathetic and humane to give asylum to hundred of thousands persecuted Burmese community in the world. Many of the third generation are living in Hijaz spread from Taif, Makkah to Jeddah and Medinah Munawwarah. They refer the Rohingya as the Palestine of Asia. The Rohingya have been living in Myanmar from as far back as the 8th Century, yet in 1962, the Burmese military junta began a programme of ethnic cleansing.
This issue is much larger than a Myanmar only problem. It is fast becoming one of the worst cases of ethnic cleansing alongside the likes of Rwanda, Bosnia and even the holocaust.

This is the insanity of Muslim world by which it is facing humiliation throughout the world. And this is the disarray in Muslims that has not made them united. Muslims are like a body if any limb is hurt the whole body should feel the pain. But no when the body is paralysed by the germ of insanity nothing is felt.
Alas! and fie. The silence of middle eastern and Saudi leaders, specially when they have favoured Burmese in the past and can get the matter fixed, is a riddle.
As for Pakistan that feels itself the authority of Islam, that pokes its nose in every matter is too silent.
It is another thing even if it spoke no one would listen. Beside what can Pakistanis do? Burn and destroy their own properties and transports?
Also there is not a single sensible person left in the higher political position in Pakistan.
Gone are the days of Muslim unity when likes of Muhammad Bin Qasim were born.
Moreover even if any of them intervened will only make the matter worse. Because wisdom is what is required. A wise person fixes the matter without any further destruction and harm to any one and yet gets the thing solved. whereas cunning people may achieve their aim at the cost of harm to many others.
As for middle eastern and Saudi leaders, do they not read or watch news and brows internet? Have they not heard anything at all about it?
It is their duty to step in and do something. Allah will be pleased with them for this virtue.
Making reconciliation between two fighting is a great virtu. Or they will be accountable to Allah for their hard heartedness.
