Hmm. I'm curious to see what has happened with this issue in Australia, as this thread was first started in 2007.

In any case, brother Abdul1234, it appears there are ulama who lack political awareness despite having studied or accumulating Islamic knowledge. In that sense, there is an inability, or lack of development, in applying Islamic knowledge to the affairs of the Muslim people. This leads to unconscionable fatawa, utterly backwards opinions.
One of the causes of this is that Islamic institutions were subjugated to kufr powers during colonization and occupation and the kufar wanted to control them by separating Islam from reality and Islam from the affairs of the people (politics, economics, foreign relations, etc). Hence, these institutions could generate 1000s of 'imams' and 'ulama' each year, but without having a major impact on society or the affairs of the Muslim Ummah.

Hence, how an alim and 'leader' of Muslims could advocate brandishing the national flag of Australia on a masjid.

Or at least, that's one explanation for it. I may be wrong.

And Allah

certainly knows best.
