Free Baber Ahmed Petition: Your Brother Needs You!

Babar Ahmad is a British Citizen who has been detained in the UK for 7 years without trial fighting extradition to the USA under the controversial no-evidence-required Extradition Act 2003.

In June 2011, the Houses of Parliament, Joint Committee on Human Rights urged the UK government to change the law so that Babar Ahmad?s perpetual threat of extradition is ended without further delay. Since all of the allegations against Babar Ahmad are said to have taken place in the UK, we call upon the British Government to put him on trial in the UK and support British Justice for British Citizens.

ONLY A MONTH LEFT AND STILL 80,000 SIGNATURES NEEDED!

Potent Reminder!

?And for those who disbelieve - their deeds are like a mirage in a desert. The thirsty one believes it to be water; to the extent that when he came close to it, he found it is nothing and found Allah close to him, so He filled his account; and Allah is Swift at Taking Account.
Or (the state of a disbeliever is) like realms of darkness on a deep sea, which is covered by a wave, the wave covered by another wave, and above it is a cloud; layers of darkness upon darkness; if he removes his hand it does not seem visible; and the one to whom Allah does not provide light ? there is no light for him anywhere.?

(Surah An-Noor:39-40)

Jazakallah Khairan

Dua?s Please,

Wassalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu.
