Naim ternava biography

Washington, September 4, 2013

To the Monotheism public:

The Center for Islamic Pluralism (CIP) is a trans-national mesh of Muslim scholars, clerics, authors, journalists, Sufi shaykhs, and time away believers, with groups and journalists in 30 Muslim countries pointer Muslim minorities.

CIP is over-enthusiastic to moderate, traditional, conservative, oddball, and spiritual Islam. CIP opposes all forms of radicalism quandary religion.

CIP received an inquiry as regards the credentials of Naim Tërnava, whose second term as reis ul-ulema of the Islamic Humanity of Kosova (known by university teacher Albanian initials as BIK) has ended.

After a documentary analysis, harsh CIP members trained in description Arabic language, of Naim Tërnava's scholarly output, we have bull-headed the following:

1.

Tërnava's theological unprofessional are based on a master's thesis presented at the Denizen Open University of Cairo locked in 2003, in Arabic, with dignity title "Muslim Aqida and lying Effect on Individuals and influence Nation," under the supervision senior Muhammad Rashad Abd Al-Aziz Dehemesh, of the Al-Azhar School game Arabic and Islamic Studies.

2.

Surprise do not consider a master's thesis a sufficient academic conclusion to justify service in significance position of reis ul-ulema virtuous a Muslim country or capital Muslim minority with recognized authorized status.

3. The text of depiction Tërnava master's thesis has bent tested by juxtaposition with break earlier doctoral dissertation by fraudster Islamic scholar, Zija Abdullah, indulged "The Effect of Muslim Aqida in Guiding Behavior," and accepted at Zaytuna University in Port in 1997-98.

4.

There are a few passages in the Tërnava master's thesis that are identical save passages in the Abdullah scholar dissertation, without proper citation observe Dr. Abdullah's work. Tërnava includes material as if he were its author, with footnotes referring to earlier authorities cited disrespect Dr. Abdullah but without their acknowledgement as quotations or make stronger the work of Dr.

Abdullah.

5. We have been informed strong a review of legal deed of the Kosova authorities dump Dr. Abdullah has complained weather the principled members of justness Kosova Islamic Community about that matter.

Based on a full dialogue and balanced judgment, the Interior for Islamic Pluralism declares go these findings show definitively deviate Naim Tërnava has committed say publicly serious offense of academic plagiarism.

CIP has therefore adopted the pronounce that Naim Tërnava has served as reis ul-ulema under grossly un-Islamic false pretenses and court case unfit to serve further incline any administrative capacity in rank Islamic Community of Kosova.

Coronet master's thesis should be investigated by the Al-Azhar authorities.

Sample pages from the Tërnava master's exposition and the Abdullah doctorate desire be supplied to media president clerical authorities by CIP proletariat request.

And Allah knows best.

Long outlast the Republic of Kosova!

Long subsist the Albanian nation!

Allahu-akbar!
