Asylum Speakers Podcast with Jaz O'Hara: Stories of Migration
My guest this week is Manwar Ali - a former radical Jihadist who is now a leading campaigner in Britain against violence and extremism, and works with the UK police and Home Office to prevent radicalisation in young people.Whilst studying in London in the late 1970's, Manwar gradually became radicalised and was involved in radical Jihad for 15 years, recruiting others, fundraising and fighting for the cause. He is now one of the only scholars in the UK who has been directly involved in violent jihad and he draws on these experiences to address issues of extremism through education, social projects, charitable events and open discussion . Manwar and his wife came to my house for this conversation and it was very emotional for both Manwar and I. There's something really powerful about owning your mistakes and going through such a huge transition. Manwar is sincere and I truly believe anyone listening to this will understand what happened to him and the decisions he made. Manwar continues to teach Islam and now encourages anyone drawn to violence to let go of anger and hatred and instead see the beauty, goodness and truth in others. I hope you enjoy this eye opening and educational episode.Support the show (https://www.justgiving.com/prism-worldwidetribe)Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/asylum-speakers-podcast-with-jaz-ohara-stories-of-migration.

Ivan Humble once looked on Manwar Ali as his enemy. Ivan was a regional organiser for the English Defence League (EDL), whereas Manwar was once a militant jihadist. But rumours about a so-called 'super-mosque' brought them together. Image: (L) Ivan Humble and (R) Manwar Ali Credit: BBC
« Pendant longtemps, j'ai vécu pour la mort » dit Manwar Ali, un ancien djihadiste radical qui a participé à des campagnes violentes et armées au Moyen-Orient et en Asie dans les années 80. Durant cette présentation émouvante, il évoque son expérience de la radicalisation et fait appel, de façon puissante et directe, à ceux qui seraient attirés par les groupes islamistes qui prétendent que la violence et la brutalité sont nobles et vertueuses : « Renoncez à votre colère et votre haine, » dit-il, « au lieu de cela cultivez votre cœur pour voir la bonté, la beauté et la vérité chez les autres. »

Nessa comovente palestra, ele reflete a respeito de sua experiência com a radicalização e faz um apelo poderoso e direto a todos que são arrastados para grupos islâmicos que afirmam que violência e brutalidade são nobres e virtuosas: abandonem a raiva e o ódio, ele diz, e cultivem seus corações para ver bondade, beleza e verdade nos outros.
