"We never understood the so-called Islamic Banking initiatives to be anything but a branding exercise", said Dr Sahib Mustaqim Bleher, general secretary of the Islamic Party of Britain, "but this inappropriate and undemocratic political interference by Lloyds makes it clear who calls the shots". Muslims account holders of either Lloyds or the Islamic Bank of Britain, especially business customers, are urged to move their banking elsewhere or at least communicate to the bank that they may intend to do so. Organisations who have spoken out to support Interpal against this undeserved interference are asked to add their voice to this call for a boycott.
"Talk is cheap", said Bleher. "Muslims should realise their strength and vote with their feet. If we act in concert, there are enough Muslim account holders, given the financial crisis, to turn Lloyds into the next casualty of the banking sector - where they belong if they think they can abuse their power to target our community. If we fail to act, we no longer deserve to be listened to." | | | | **Articles By Sahib M Bleher Accredited - Associated | | More Articles From This Author... | | | | Add Comments To Sahib M Bleher's Articles | | | | | | | | | | | Home | Site Explorer | Media Window | Writers | Fatwa Request | Bizaar | Donations | About Us | Our Sheikh | Contact Us | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | © esinislam.com 2008 Designed And Produced By Awqaf Africa London Copyright All Rights Reserved | | No Copyright Permission Required For Users Whose Works, Activities, and Intentions Are for Purpose of Da'wah, Islamic Studies and Services to the Muslims | | | | | الله أكبر :: Allah Is Great | | | | | | | | | | |
