The folks over at Muslims for Progressive Values have a petition up regarding domestic violence. Take a look. Sign if you are so inclined. Spread the word if it strikes you. No pun intended.

MLT – Extremism and New Media, the Imam’s Circle
Sorry folks. I was on the extremism panel (not as an extremist) and I ditched the Imam’s Circle. For various reasons, I actually didn’t say much on the panel, but the main presenter, Aftab Malik, was quite good. I’ll develop some of the thoughts I had in a separate post. I didn’t attend the Imam’s Circle because I thought its composition reflected the tendency to construct, however inadvertently, a homogeneous face of Islam, particularly in its lack of Shi’ah representation.
