The
residing in the country and subsequent closure of worlds largest refugee complex by
the end of November 2016. But following
the latest pronouncement Dadaab refugee
camp will-if the government adheres to the
timeline- will be shut down at the end of May
2017.
Today I wish to announce that the government of Kenya has accepted the request to
extend the deadline for the completion of repatriation of Somali refugees and eventual
closure of the Dadaab refugee complex by
six months said Nkaissery in a statement.
Nkaissery however noted that the ongoing
Muslims should be at the forefront in cultivating tolerance and promoting better relations with people from other faith backgrounds.
These sentiments were made by Sheikh
Jamaldin Athman, the head of Markaz Nur
Madrasa in Mombasa who emphasized
that relations with non-Muslims should be
on modelled on how the Prophet peace be
upon him interrelated with people of other
faiths.
In his lecture during the Islamic Conference held at the Sir Ali Muslim Club in
Nairobi at the weekend, Sheikh Jamaldin
stressed that Islamic teachings as exemplified by Prophet Muhammad on whom
be Allahs peace and blessings were consistent on having positive interactions with
non-Muslims.
Prophet Muhammad is described in the
Quran as the best of examples for Muslims to follow and during his time, he was
known to live in harmony with Jews, Christians and idol worshippers and this should
form a reason for Muslims to ensure that

Nubee Abdallah
Im 33-years-old and still single. Well, the still is the lamentation some Muslims in the community add when they describe my
status.
The Muslim culture, not unlike most others, abides by a set of
expectations when it comes to women, marriage and motherhood.
A womans identity is strongly braided with her walking down the
aisle and becoming a mother. Because many women believe that,
by a certain age, their life should follow this path, their decisions
are dictated by this expectation. I confess, I too have been guilty
of this thinking.
In the Muslim community, it is not uncommon for people to ask
girls who have just completed high school with questions like,
So when will we be getting a wedding invitation? Once I turned
30-years-old, the question changed from When are you going to
marry? to Why arent you married yet? As if I have some grand
scheme to avoid marriage at all cost.
The intrusive questions are not limited to women. Ive even been
bluntly asked by suitors, Sajdah, youre in your 30s and never
been married. How come? The implication of this question really
offends me; they might as well be saying, So tell me whats wrong
with you?
I answer by saying there is no perfect age at which to marry, I am
clear on what I am looking for, and I am not willing to settle. I just
have yet to find my mate. My self-assured reply has worked well
for me so far. Still, I am human and sometimes my confidence
cracks. Ever so often, the anxious little voice inside my head pipes
up, Are you sure youre not doing something wrong? You should
be married by now. This nagging internal monologue was at its
strongest right after I finished graduate school. I was 29-years-old
at the time and just knew that now that I had completed my education, marriage would follow at its heels. When it didnt, I felt my
self-assuredness crumble into self-doubt.
Islam values marriage tremendously. It is an act of worship and
highly encouraged. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)
said getting married completes half our religion. In other words, a
loving Muslim marriage requires both individuals to show compassion, generosity,
forgiveness,
etc. and when

Abdullah al-Andalusi
On the 8th November 2016, many Americans went to the polling stations to select
the next President of the United States of
America.
The 2016 election year saw a difficult
choice between two candidates: one a
populist businessman demagogue whose
rhetoric and seemingly bigoted policies
have alarmingly resonated with a large portion of (white) European Americans; the
other, an experienced politician with questionable past practices while in political office who will no doubt continue the policies
of the current administration.
As with every election time, the election
campaign generated an implied myth that
the Presidency election was going to result
in a complete and radical change in the direction of the United States.
As news of Trumps election victory came in
on the morning of the 9th November 2016,
there was much wailing and gnashing of
teeth, with many people globally falling to despondency, fear over what comes
next, and dread. Almost equally, there was
jubilation and celebration amongst the
right-wing supporters of Trump, and many
others who voted for him across America,
believing that a new era was coming.
However, like all successful myths, most
of the American people have been misdirected to focus on the specifics of the candidates, while forgetting or not fully realising the true reason for the election and the
important role it plays in the design of the
U.S. system of government.
Change is no Change
First off, both sides seem to forget that the
President of The United States (POTUS)
does not possess absolute power and authority in the U.S. and cannot, of their own

sentences, but has already had the 20year term confirmed by an Appellate Court.
Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International have argued that the trials carried
out by the government of Abdel Fattah elSisi, who led the coup against Morsi, have
been political in nature and violated the
rights of thousands of Egyptians.
Mass trials have sentenced hundreds of
Egyptians to death. Rights groups have
also called attention to the prison abuse in
Egypt's detention system.
Morsi himself has in the past abstained
from eating prison food, out of fear for his
life.(Al Jazeera)

NEP counties to lose billions as govt moves to use projected 2009 census figures
Northern counties are set to lose billions of shillings from their budgetary
allocations as the national government
intends to use the projected figures
from the 2009 population census in
allocating funds to the counties rather
than the actual figures that were disputed by the government.
The disputed census results were
for then 8 districts now four counties.
These were Lagdera, Mandera East,
Mandera Central, Mandera West, Wajir East, Turkana North, Turkana South
and Turkana Central districts.
In May this year the Court of Appeal
ruled that the disputed figures would
still stand as the actual figures but at
the same time directed government
agencies such as the Ministry of Planning and Kenya Bureau of Statistics to
use the projected figures rather than
actual census figures of 2009 in respect to the four counties.
The court also directed that the projected figures be published and gazetted.Mandera senator Billow Kerrow
wondered why the same court would
contradict itself by upholding the actual
Muslim inmates have been urged to remain steadfast in Islam and safeguard
their Islamic faith while inside the incarceration precincts for spiritual nourishment, identity and better life.
This call was made by Jamia Mosque
Imam Sheikh Muhammad Swalihu
who challenged the inmates to strictly adhere and follow the teachings of
Islam while within the prison walls to
enhance on their spirituality and serve
as good role models to other prisoners.
Speaking during the official opening
of the Kamiti Medium Security Prison
mosque last week, Sheikh Swalihu
emphasized on the need for Muslim inmates to remain true to their faith and
uphold the correct teachings emanating from the Qur'an and the traditions
of Prophet Muhammad peace be upon
him to enhance their spiritual affairs
and development.
The Sheikh who was the chief guest at
the event told the prisoners not to despair but look at the brighter side of the
life in prison, positively change their
behavours and engage in constructive
activities to empower themselves for
the good of the society.
He encouraged the inmates to take advantage of the existing education and
training opportunities within the correctional facilities to acquire knowledge
and skills that would better their future
lives after prison.
Sheikh Swalihu commended the governments efforts for appointing full
time Maalims to provide and cater for
the spiritual needs and welfare of Muslim inmates and members of staff in all
the prisons countrywide and for provid-
