Yours truly, Abdel

Peace and Greetings to everyone,

The Holy Qur’an begins with Al hamdullillah, ie., praise be to God-Alone, the Almighty; and it ends with a prayer to seek refuge in Him from the evils of malignant whisperers. In the World Wide Web, these evil whisperers lurk in many deceptive forms. They include what came to be known as the hackers and the pirates. They are in the company of the spammers and cyberpunks. They hide in computer virus, worms, and trojans. They camouflage in spywares and adwares. They employ phising and so many deceptive mechanism. Above all, there are personal and corporate identity thieves. The growth of the Internet is also projected to go along with the rise of insidious and malignant whisperers with the intent to defraud the general public.

And then through malicious postings, there are those who malign other peoples' identities. We call them maligners, consistent with the definition: “One who attacks the reputation of another by slander or libel”. My name, Abdel Aziz Dimapunong, and my sons’ name, Abdel Aziz Saber Dimapunong, Jr., together with our cofounders of the Islamic Bank, Grande M. Dianaton, Usman Rasuman, Maulana Alug, Kym Arthur Roy, and others have been among those posted in the Internet.
We came to know that the one who has been responsible died recently without having removed those postings. As Muslims we can not say "May he rest in peace". We are ordained by the Holy Qur'an never to pray for forgiveness for that kind of man. (Surah Taubah 113, the Holy Qur'an).

Since he did not remove those malicious postings since 1999 until his death, leaving us as respondents to all his lies, we resolved to just award him the most rejected AWARD OF INFAMY.

In this site, we shall clarify certain things. And we welcome any words from anyone who might choose to defend the maligners.
Truly yours,
Abdel Dimapunong
