“all forms of Islamophobia” and recommencing to form a Task Force to
help the federal government shape its strategic vision to eliminate
discrimination and hatred.
The resolution initiated by Liberal Party in Ontario states as follows:
The resolution goes in line with the directive of Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, who has repeatedly condemned actions perceived as possible hate crimes against Muslims in Canada.
In a video message to the annual Reviving the Islamic Spirit convention held at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre (December 25-27, 2015) in Toronto, Trudeau said “that these recent acts of intolerance have no place in our country and run absolutely contrary to Canadian values of pluralism and respect.”
The
book “The Accepted Dua [supplication]” was picked up on January 28,

“Allah says:
“Invite (mankind) to the way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom and fair preaching, and reason with them in a way that is better. Truly, Your Lord knows best who gone astray from His path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.” [16:125]
“The word invite ادع is an order given by Allah. This means that it is compulsory on all muslims to give Dawah (propagate Islam) to Non-muslims, and to remind Muslims to practice Islam according to the Sunnah of the Prophet PBUH.
“This obligation becomes even more important for those Muslims who live in Non-Muslim countries, where the Non-Muslim outnumber the Muslim population. Not only must the handful of Muslims give Dawah to the Non-Muslims, but they must also protect their Deen (belief in Islam) by enjoining each other towards Islam.
“It is a good idea to set aside a few hours every week (especially on weekends and holidays) for this cause. Start with your friends, co-workers, and neighbours. A friendly chat or distributing Dawah literature (which is easily available free of cost at Mosques and Islamic Centres) is a good way to begin.
“Tell Non-Muslims about Islam, the Oneness of Allah, Prophethood, and the belief in life after death, as follows:
“Islam:
“Islam is the total submission, surrender and obedience to Allah. It also means “peace” – of mind, body, heart and society.

The resolution initiated by Liberal Party in Ontario states as follows:
“WHEREAS the Liberal Party of Canada Constitution states that the Liberal Party subscribes to the protection of the fundamental rights and freedoms of persons under the rule of law;CIJnews could not find any evidence to support the Liberal’s claim that Canadian Muslims were murdered in 2015 in hate crimes. The Peterborough Mosque fire was investigated by Police as a potential hate crime with no clear evidence or suspects to determine the motive of the arson.
“WHEREAS the Liberal Party of Canada’s core values statement affirms that we believe in the dignity of every person;
“WHEREAS the 42nd General Election saw a sharp increase in the politics of fear and division, including Islamophobic acts, such as the Peterborough Mosque fire;
“WHEREAS there has been a significant increase in recorded Islamophobic acts committed in 2015 that have included harassment, violent attacks, murders, arson, graffiti, property damage and death threats against Muslims;
“WHEREAS the Rt. Hon. Justin Trudeau has repeatedly declared he is ‘deeply disturbed’ by the increasing Islamophobia in Canada, and joining governments from around the world in condemning such heinous acts towards Muslim communities;
“BE IT RESOLVED that the Liberal Party of Canada makes a concerted effort to counter prejudice and hate and develop policies specific to the reduction and elimination of Islamophobia in all of its forms;
“BE IT RESOLVED that the Liberal Party of Canada strike a Task Force for the Elimination of All Forms of Islamophobia;
“BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the recommendations of the Task Force be forwarded to the Rt. Hon. Prime Minister, Cabinet and all MPs to be used as the Government of Canada’s strategic vision to eliminate all forms of discrimination and hatred.”
The resolution goes in line with the directive of Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, who has repeatedly condemned actions perceived as possible hate crimes against Muslims in Canada.

as hate speech and hate crimes aimed at non-Muslims.
