Due to a dozens of changes in life, it has been few months that I had been unable to make an update in the blog. However, InshaAllah this is going to be a start back. Please keep me in you sincere Du'as dear brothers and sisters.
This time, I am starting a series called "Maldives and Islam". It will go on untill we come to the present situation of the nation inshaAllah. Wa Billahit-Tawfeeq!
Maldives and Islam - 1
The Maldives is a nation consisting of 26 natural atolls, comprising 1192 islands. Consisting of around 350,000 citizens in the total population, Maldives is the only country which can be called a 100% Muslim Nation in the world. This is the only nation in its constitution very clearly says that each Maldivian should be a Muslim, and no non-Muslim can be a Maldivian even if they are born here. Alhamdhulillah! This has been added to the new constitution which has started its journey in 2008, with the vote of ALL the Parliamentarians presented in the vote, including those who debated that this statement should have been removed or changed.
Moreover, Maldives is one of the nations which has its own Languange (called Dhivehi) and Alphabet (called Thaana). Yes that is correct!
