  • OnePath Network travelled all the way over to North Queensland to meet with the Muslim Community of Mareeba.
    They are a small rural community of Albanian farmers that have been here for over 100 years. Their story is nothing short of inspirational for Muslims around the world.
    We uncovered how they not only were able to blend in so flawlessly into Australian culture but also the secret behind their ability to survive for so many generations.
    Enjoy their story!

      @@moholah3745 Explanation in Brief
      The verses cited above take up three important subjects which are the basic principles of unity among Muslims as a collectively organized community.
      1. Muslims can deal with non-Muslims in the spirit of tolerance, sympathy, goodwill, equity, justice, favour and kindness, almost every-thing within that line of conduct. In fact, they should do that for they have been taught to do that. But, what is not permitted is the kind of fast friendship and indiscriminating intimacy which may garble the distinctive hallmarks of Islam. This is the issue known as the ` Tack al-Muwalat' to refrain from deep (friendship) in Islamic terminology.
      2. The second principle stressed upon is that should the Muslims of any time and place shift away from the first principle stated above and develop an intimacy of this nature with non-Muslims, then, let them not be under the impression that their conduct could harm Islam in any manner whatsoever - because Allah Almighty has Himself taken the responsibility of seeing that Islam remains duly protected. It cannot be eliminated by anyone. However, if a set of people still go out of their minds, break the limits of Islamic modality of doing things and, let us presume, decide to leave the very pale of Islam, then, Allah Ta` ala will bring in another set of people who will uphold and establish the principles and laws of Islam.
      3. Once we know the positive and negative aspects in perspective, it becomes evident that the real friendship of a Muslim - deep, intense, profound and reliance-worthy - can only be with Allah, the Highest of the high, His Messenger, and with those who believe in them.
      After this brief introduction of the subject, we can now move to the detailed explanation of the verses.

      ​@@edus9636no one slaughtered Buddhists. The Malay separatists are fighting the Thai government in the areas of Pattani, Yala and Narathiwat. All of that territories are majority Malay-Muslims land. They're being conquered by the Siam and the Siam are trying to change the culture and language of the Malays into Siamese back in the early 1900s. The Buddhist Siamese are not the indigenous people there, the Malays are the indigenous. Malay Territories historically were actually from Chaiya (Cahaya or light) to the end of the Malay Peninsular. We can say, actually from Kra Isthmus to the southern tip of Asia continent. Kra Isthmus comes from Malay language, 'kera', the Macaques monkey. People from Northern Malaysians doesn't go to Southern Thai to kill Buddhists, they also have Buddhists there, mainly Chinese and Siamese. I don't know where do you get the story and information from, may be you're some Northern Thais who knew nothing about history of your southern parts. The idea of assimilating the Malays into Thais that made them rebels. Now, the Thai government are more lenient to the Malays, they're allowed to use the language and perform their traditions. Many of the civil servants at the south now are Malays Muslims. The separatists are also sit in a meeting with Thai government, a few months back. The peace meeting were chaired by a Malaysian representative.

      @@yojan9238 A short search at Google will show you how often Buddhist farmers in southern Thailand have been slaughtered in the last decades, just because bearded (but heavily funded) radicals can't accept defeat (similar in Mindanao, Kashmir, Israel, northern Myanmar, etc). Assimilation? Buddhists and Hindus lived in South East Asia for millenia before being attacked and/or assimilated into a new religion, that almost exterminated the others (Bali being the case as the only Hindu remains in Indonesia!). Buddhists in Northern Malaysia? How many are still alive compared to, say, 50 years ago? 1%? Funny how muslim rebels are admired for refusing assimilation while, when viceversa, the others are discriminated or exterminated (Turkey, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Sudan, Egypt, northern Nigeria, etc). Thailand will heavily regret being lenient.

      I'm an Arab living in France, originally from Morocco. I went to Indonesia two years ago, and this country made me realize many things, such as how a single man from the desert (peace and blessings be upon him) succeeded in spreading Islam to both the far west (Morocco) and the far east (Indonesia) without physically going there. I always tell Indonesians that the only thing we have in common is Islam. im going again in 2 weeks

      Milan, i will tell you the truth. Kosova otherwise known as Unmikistan was created as an artificial state by the Western powers for various reasons. Is Kosova independent? No it has no attributes of an independent country no more than Palestine does. Foreigners come and go with there military with the Kosova government having no control over them. There economy, fake flag and currency was completely installed by foreigners without asking anyone that lives there. They even made it an official athiest state as is stated in its fake constitution.
      I think the best thing that could have happened for Kosova was to be a Republic under Serbia as the Albanian government is too poor to manage its own people it can't join it at this point and even if it did want to the puppet fake leaders there will listen to London and Washington. They had it good there, unfortunately when foreigners come in, they destroy a great country like Yugoslavia. Keep in mind Macedonia was also part of Serbia so was Montenegro. I don't see you sayhing it is Serbia? Also 1/3 of Kosova is already under Serbian control, the rest under NATO/Eulex control. @@milankengur7216

Kudos to the pioneering Albanian-Australian Muslims for giving birth to the Australia's first mosque. Also I heard stories that the first mosque in America was founded, constructed & built by the early Albanian Muslims who over hundred years ago settled in U.S.A.

      Please stop mentioning Albanians, no Pakistani, or Arab or Indian cares about Albanians. NO turk cares about Albanians. You are being so nationalistic in a Muslim video here. This is about a muslim community, has nothing to do with Albanian culture, zero! No language, no traditional dances, no dress, nothing! Stop being so naive. Half of this family is Christian today and the rest intermarried with arabs, and south east asians.

      This video has nothing to do with Albanians. One family was Albanian and the majority are mixed asian and arab muslims. Stop bringing in nationalism. You want to be nationalistic go to protests and stop loving NATO and the EU which has left you poor. Protest the black people coming into Albanian destroying the idenity of the country. We are not sunni Ahl Al hadeeth. Kjo eshte feje e arabve qe kan libra tjera jasht kuranit.

      @@bigchongus_She was young. And there were reasons for that. Woman were largely married at this time for security especially if member’s of the woman’s family were old or sick and couldn’t necessarily take proper care of their daughter then marriage was a way to bring a husband into her life to protect her from atrocious things that were happening to women at the time. Not only this, but all woman mature at different ages. A female may sexually mature when she’s 11, 12, 13. However, it could take longer until she’s 18 or 19. It all depends on the physical traits of the female. Also, it’s important to note that life expectancy rates have greatly improved. And so, a 30 year old marrying a 20 year old although it’s seen as okay since people regard both as adults, it would be similar in the time of the Prophet pbuh if a man was in his mid twenties marrying a mid teen or late teen female who was matured. It was the same kind of concept because as I said life expectancy was much lower. So early marriage was a very common thing for people who wanted to live a morally decent life with a life-long partner. Many people didn’t make it past 40. And so, when you factor in all of these points and more you’ll understand that you can not take this fact that you point out and relate it to today’s context since it simply just doesn’t work it’s a different time full of different norms and different problems.

    As an Aussie born Albanian I totally understand the struggles the community encountered during the 1980s. Cause the same had happened to the Albanian Illawarra community in nsw ..unfortunately now most of the Albanian community have moved to Melbourne and a small amount of families remain here and are far away from deen. Inshallah they turn back Islam. But seeing Mareeba having a very united community is a beautiful feeling to see such unity. Bashkim rroft shqiptaret e islame
