Friday: The day Muslims call for democracy, liberality and social justice Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
March 23, 2011
Islam demands from its adherents to work hard for the cause of justice and considers that work a life-long religious duty and a moral virtue. The Qur'an reiterates that principle hundreds of times and the Prophet's tradition and practice both have volumes of examples.
Revolutions in the Arab world: The question of Islam and democracyProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
April 14, 2011
Is there a relationship between Islam and democracy?
Egypt: Dignity, Democracy and Social JusticeProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
April 21, 2011
Seven years ago a new political party in Egypt was formed, Al-Karama (Dignity). On May 30, 2004 it applied to become an official party but it has never been approved because it was outspoken against Mubarak, his family and his corrupt regime. The party was of one of the forces behind Egypt's January 25th Revolution. Its leader Hamdeen Sabahi, a journalist, ran for parliament as an independent. He won in 2004 and lost in 2010 but he is intended to run in the presidential election later this year. In Cairo last week I met his deputy, Amin Iskander, an engineer from my Cairo’s birth place; Shoubra.

The Brilliant Arab YouthProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
May 5, 2011
In the mind of the Arab masses the brilliant Arab youth managed to make a paradigm shift from how-did-we-get-here to how-can-we-move-forward.
Egypt’s Revolution: The first 100 days Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
May 12, 2011
A revolution releases latent forces within a people. Scholars differ over what is the essence of the French Revolution, disagree about how long it lasted, debate its results and even discuss when it began. But they agree that what began in 1789 was very important. It changed the whole concept of a revolution.
Why Irshad Manji, not Tawakkol Karman is media darlingProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
May 16, 2011
For the last 10 years women in Islam and their status in Muslim countries were two popular topics in Western media. Muslim women, like Irshad Manji and Ayaan Ali, have become media darlings because they wrote books smearing their religion, and called for the "liberation" of Muslim women. But when revolutionary Muslim women like Asmaa Mahfouz and Tawakkol Karman, an Egyptian and a Yemeni, recently made history by leading their countries towards dignity, democracy, liberty and social justice, both were ignored by the Western media.
Don’t blame the Egyptian RevolutionProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
May 25, 2011
Western media has no good word about any of the Arab revolutions including that of Egypt. But Arab revolutions are all success stories. Even those who have involved violence are far less bloody than that of the French Revolution.
I have a dream: Palestine will be free Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
March 20, 2024
This poignant painting is by Palestinian artist Fayez Ehsani of Gaza. So far, he has survived the Israeli genocide of his people-at least for now, as I write from so far away, in a country where I am safe and free. But he is not.
It's a myth that religion and politics don't mixProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
June 17, 2011
When asked the question, "should politicians allow their religious beliefs to affect political decisions?" the overwhelming majority of Canadians these days are likely to answer in the negative.
