Hillary Clinton: Traitor; Collaborating With the Enemy

From IINA comes notice on August 1 that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton plans to host coordination meetings with the OIC on how to implement HRC Resolution 16/18 "on combating defamation of religions, and how to prevent stereotypes depicting religions and their followers; as well as disseminating religious tolerance". 

    This quote from the P.R. is crucial.

According to informed sources in the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, the two sides, in addition to other European parties, will hold a number of specialized meetings of experts in law and religion in order to finalize the legal aspect on how to better implement the UN resolution.

    Does anyone remember how the promotion of the resolution claimed that the "defamation concept" was deprecated in favor of "negative stereotyping" so that freedom of expression is not threatened by the resolution? 

    Methodologies supposedly include education (indoctrination) controverting speech and "inter-religious dialog".  So why involve legal experts?  Whence comes the need or mandate for legislation? 

    How could any such legislation possibly be squared with the First Amendment?   The next paragraph reinforces its predecessor, pay careful attention:

The sources said that the upcoming meetings aim at developing a legal basis for the UN Human Rights Council’s resolution which help in enacting domestic laws for the countries involved in the issue, as well as formulating international laws preventing inciting hatred resulting from the continued defamation of religions.
  • enacting domestic laws
  • formulating international laws
    • preventing
      • inciting hatred
      •  
        • continued defamation of religions
    How is it possible create a justiciable  definition of "defamation of religions" ?  Why in Hell is anyone seriously considering the matter?   Religions are not subject to proof, they are matters of faith.  Either you believe or you don't. Its your choice, and everyone else has the same choice.  If others have differing opinions of your personal superstition and express them, what harm is done? Is your faith so weak that it can not withstand questioning?  

    Geert Wilders truthfully illustrated the nexus between Islamic doctrine expressed in the Qur'an and exemplified in the hadith with modern examples of rabble rousing, mob violence & terrorism.  His documentary was condemned as "hate speech" and "incitement to violence". He was tried twice and acquitted.  Wilders did not incite mob violence, Imams did at Jumah Salat. The riots happened after Friday prayer services; no coincidence. 

    Had Hitler claimed divine revelation and founded a pseudo religion, Churchill could have been brought up on charges of defamation for criticizing Hitler's cult.   That is exactly what Moe did 1400 years ago.  When poets criticized him in verse, Moe had them murdered.  Such a nice man. How great a role model. In the last decade of his life, Moe started a battle on the average of every six weeks.  How peaceful! 

    Moe married the six year old daughter of his best friend; she was still playing with dolls three years later when he consummated the marriage.  There areseveral muttawir ahadith describing her age, another gives it as seven.   Exposing these facts is condemned as "hate speech".

    Moe commanded the Muslims to wage perpetual war culminating in global conquest; until only Allah is worshiped and Jews & Christians are subjugated and submit to annual extortion. Moe raided one local Jewish settlement, killing all the men and adolescent boys after they surrendered. Exposing these facts is condemned as "inciting violence". 

    No! !!!   Hate speech is telling Allah 17 times per day why he should burn us. "1:6. Guide us to the Straight Way  1:7. The Way of those on whom You have bestowed Your Grace, not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger (such as the Jews), nor of those who went astray (such as the Christians).  "

    Hate speech is cursing us: "2:161. Verily, those who disbelieve, and die while they are disbelievers, it is they on whom is the Curse of Allâh and of the angels and of mankind, combined. " 

    Hate speech is defaming us: "98:6. Verily, those who disbelieve (in the religion of Islâm, the Qur'ân and Prophet Muhammad ()) from among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) and Al-Mushrikûn will abide in the Fire of Hell. They are the worst of creatures.

    Incitement to violence is: "8:39. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism: i.e. worshipping others besides Allâh) and the religion (worship) will all be for Allâh Alone [in the whole of the world ]. But if they cease (worshipping others besides Allâh), then certainly, Allâh is All-Seer of what they do. 

    Incitement to violence is: "9:29. Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allâh, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allâh and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islâm) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.

    Incitement to violence is threatening eternal damnation for shirking and promising eternity in the celestial whore house for participating in violence: "9:38. O you who believe! What is the matter with you, that when you are asked to march forth in the Cause of Allâh (i.e. Jihâd) you cling heavily to the earth? Are you pleased with the life of this world rather than the Hereafter? But little is the enjoyment of the life of this world as compared with the Hereafter.
9:39. If you march not forth, He will punish you with a painful torment and will replace you by another people, and you cannot harm Him at all, and Allâh is Able to do all things. "

"61:11.  That you believe in Allâh and His Messenger (Muhammad ), and that you strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allâh with your wealth and your lives, that will be better for you, if you but know!  61:12. (If you do so) He will forgive you your sins, and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow, and pleasant dwelling in Gardens of 'Adn ­ Eternity ['Adn (Edn) Paradise], that is indeed the great success.

    What do you call a cult whose demon demands great slaughter as the price of admission to paradise?  What do you call a cult that promises rewards for any step taken to injure or enrage disbelievers? 

    I have not engaged in hate speech neither have I engaged in incitement to violence.; I have described and documented them.  Not "radicalism"; not "extremism"; that is standard, off the shelf, mainstream Islam, violent by design because Moe got his income from plundering his victims.    Like it or not, that is the fatal fact. If you doubt it, you can find full documentation here: Islam's Mercenary Mission. 

    OIC Secretary General, Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, was quoted thusly:

He added that the reports of the OIC Islamophobia Observatory for the years 2009 and 2010 had included several warnings about an organized political form which the extreme right may transform into through its parties’ legislation.

    They want to make it illegal to organize parties  and campaign on anti-Islamic platforms.   Their apologists are already bitching bitterly about statements made by Gingrich, West, Cain and other candidates.

    Read between the lines, see what they are really doing, wake up, wise up and rise up.  The traitors who do Islam's bidding must be removed from power in the next election cycle.  Those who are weak kneed,. and lack the courage to speak out must be removed with them and replaced by true patriots. Collaborating with the enemy is not acceptable!

Islamic Reformation?

Can Islam Be Reformed?  Dennis Prager asserts that it needs and is capable of reformation.  While stating his belief that Islam is reformable, Prager fails to offer any evidence to support his belief.  Instead, he gives us a five point ordered list of tasks which must be performed. With that great accomplishment, he give us a little information about some supposed reformers. 

    The third point in his task list is a major stumbling block: "Publicly and unambiguously condemn all violence in the name of Islam, including violence against Israel." That presents a problem because any Muslim who does so thereby writes his own death warrant.  Perhaps, as a self-acknowledged student of Arabic and lecturer on comparative religions, Prager should be aware of this provision of Shari'ah, found in Reliance of the Traveller, Book O,. Chapter 8.  First, it prescribes the death penalty for apostasy, next it lists 20 acts entailing apostasy.

O8.1.

When a person who has reached puberty and is sane voluntarily apostatizes from Islam, he deserves to be killed.

O8.2

In such a case, it is obligatory for the caliph (A: or his representive) to ask him to repent and return to Islam. If he does, it is accepted from him, but if he refuses, he is immediately killed.

O8.7: Acts that Entail Leaving Islam[...]

-7- to deny any verse of the Koran or anything which by scholarly consensus (def: b7) belongs to it, or to add a verse that does belong to it;
[...]

    Islamic law forbids rejecting any part of the Qur'an.  For example:

2:216. Jihâd (holy fighting in Allâh's Cause) is ordained for you (Muslims) though you dislike it, and it may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and that you like a thing which is bad for you. Allâh knows but you do not know.

8:39. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism: i.e. worshipping others besides Allâh) and the religion (worship) will all be for Allâh Alone [in the whole of the world ]. But if they cease (worshipping others besides Allâh), then certainly, Allâh is All-Seer of what they do.

9:29. Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allâh, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allâh and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islâm) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.


    Allah ordained jihad for Muslims and commanded them to fight us until resistance ceases, Allah has a global monopoly and Jews & Christians are subjugated and extorted. Prager expects Muslim reformers to abjure those verses; Islamic law demands their heads if they do. 

    There are other insurmountable obstacles to be overcome.  How do you improve on perfection?   Islam can only be defiled, never improved. 

5:3. [...]This day, I have perfected your religion for you, completed My Favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islâm as your religion.[...]

    How do you change that which is compiled into a book, printed & widely published in many languages and strictly forbids  editing? 

6:115. And the Word of your Lord has been fulfilled in truth and in justice. None can change His Words. And He is the All­Hearer, the All­Knower.
10:64. [...]No change can there be in the Words of Allâh, this is indeed the supreme success.[...]

30:30. [...]No change let there be in Khalq­illâh (i.e. the Religion of Allâh Islâmic Monotheism), that is the straight religion, but most of men know not. [...]


    Moe confirmed the fatal fact with a curse.

Sahih Bukhari Volume 9, Book 88, Number 174:

Narrated Sahl bin Sa'd:

I heard the Prophet saying, "I am your predecessor at the Lake-Fount (Kauthar), and whoever will come to it, will drink from it, and whoever will drink from it, will never become thirsty after that. There will come to me some people whom I know and they know me, and then a barrier will be set up between me and them." Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri added that the Prophet further said: "I will say those people are from me. It will be said, 'You do not know what changes and new things they did after you.' Then I will say, 'Far removed (from mercy), far removed (from mercy), those who changed (the religion) after me! "

    In another hadith, Moe cursed the Muslims with disgrace if they abandon warfare as a way of life exchanging it for trade or agriculture. 

Sunan Abu Dawud Book 23, Number 3455:

Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar:

I heard the Apostle of Allah, (peace_be_upon_him) say: When you enter into the inah transaction, hold the tails of oxen, are pleased with agriculture, and give up conducting jihad (struggle in the way of Allah). Allah will make disgrace prevail over you, and will not withdraw it until you return to your original religion.

    Only a deluded fool or a liar will claim that Islam can be reformed to render it anodyne. It may go off track for brief periods, but Allah will send someone to return it to his path.

Sunan Abu Dawud Book 37, Number 4278:

Narrated AbuHurayrah:

The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: Allah will raise for this community at the end of every hundred years the one who will renovate its religion for it.

Islam: the Right to Plunder

Promotion & perpetuation of plunder are the purposes of Islam.  The mission is mercenary and the method is martial. It is difficult to comprehend this fact without sampling the Qur'an & hadith.

8:1. They ask you (O Muhammad ) about the spoils of war. Say: "The spoils are for Allâh and the Messenger." So fear Allâh and adjust all matters of difference among you, and obey Allâh and His Messenger (Muhammad ), if you are believers.

8:41. And know that whatever of war-booty that you may gain, verily one-fifth (1/5th) of it is assigned to Allâh, and to the Messenger, and to the near relatives [of the Messenger (Muhammad )], (and also) the orphans, Al-Masâkin (the poor) and the wayfarer, if you have believed in Allâh and in that which We sent down to Our slave (Muhammad ) on the Day of criterion (between right and wrong), the Day when the two forces met (the battle of Badr) - And Allâh is Able to do all things.

    If booty is accrued, the top 20% goes to Allah and Moe. How can an impotent stone idol use & enjoy spoils? Who really benefits?  Lets get right down to the brass tacks.

8:67. It is not for a Prophet that he should have prisoners of war (and free them with ransom) until he had made a great slaughter (among his enemies) in the land. You desire the good of this world (i.e. the money of ransom for freeing the captives), but Allâh desires (for you) the Hereafter. And Allâh is All-Mighty, All-Wise.
   
    The highlighted clause and parenthetical  explanation taken from tafsir tell us what we need to know about Moe: his motivation is mercenary,. Allah wants genocide, Moe wanted loot. What a sweet couple, lets follow them to Hell.

    The fatal fact is confirmed by one hadith which  M. Muhsin Khan bowdlerized but Aisha Bewley did not.


    How did Moe derive his income?  What happened to anyone who disobeyed him?  Yeah, that's it! How did Allah enrich Moe?

Sahih Bukhari Volume 3, Book 37, Number 495:

    Narrated Abu Huraira:

    Whenever a dead man in debt was brought to Allah's Apostle he would ask, "Has he left anything to repay his debt?" If he was informed that he had left something to repay his debts, he would offer his funeral prayer, otherwise he would tell the Muslims to offer their friend's funeral prayer. When Allah made the Prophet wealthy through conquests, he said, "I am more rightful than other believers to be the guardian of the believers, so if a Muslim dies while in debt, I am responsible for the repayment of his debt, and whoever leaves wealth (after his death) it will belong to his heirs. "


    Moe's arrogance was unbounded. He said that Allah gave him the keys to the treasures of the world. [Sahih Bukhari 4.52.220] He said that his followers would destroy the Persian & Roman empires and spend their treasures in jihad. [Sahih Bukhari 4.52.267]

    Plundering had been taboo among the Arabs. How did Moe deal with that taboo?  Being Allah's spokesman, he had Allah issue special dispensation.

Sahih Muslim Book 019, Number 4327:
The spoils of war were not made lawful for any people before us, This is because Allah saw our weakness and humility and made
them
lawful for us.

Allah needed an eagle eye  and an electron microscope to see Moe's humility. Sahih Bukhari's Book of Khumus begins with 4.52.324. Scroll through it to find these samples and more.
  • I got a she-camel in my share of the war booty on the day (of the battle) of Badr, and the Prophet had given me a she-camel from the Khumus.
  • Then some camels as booty were brought to Allah's Apostle and he asked for us saying. 'Where are the group of Al-Ash'ariyun?' Then he ordered that we should be given five camels with white humps.
  • They gained a great number of camels as war booty. The share of each one of them was twelve or eleven camels, and they were given an extra camel each.

  • When Allah favored His Apostle with the properties of Hawazin tribe as Fai (booty), he started giving to some Quarries men even up to one-hundred camels each,
    How is this reflected in the Qur'an?

33:27. And He caused you to inherit their lands, and their houses, and their riches, and a land which you had not trodden (before). And Allâh is Able to do all things.

48:20. Allâh has promised you abundant spoils that you will capture, and He has hastened for you this, and He has restrained the hands of men from you, that it may be a sign for the believers, and that He may guide you to a Straight Path.

48:21. And other (victories and much booty there are, He promises you) which are not yet within your power, indeed Allâh compasses them, And Allâh is Ever Able to do all things.

Islam: the Right to Terrorize

Mohammad Atta, in his final message to the Magnificent 19, directed them to shout the Takbir while slaughtering because it terrifies disbelievers.

Psychological warfare

When the confrontation begins, strike like champions who do not want to go back to this world. Shout, 'Allahu Akbar,' because this strikes fear in the hearts of the non-believers.

    Moe used Takbir, Atta was emulating him.

When he entered the town, he said, 'Allahu Akbar! Khaibar is ruined. Whenever we approach near a (hostile) nation (to fight) then evil will be the morning of those who have been warned.' He repeated this thrice.[Sahih Bukhari 1.8.367]

50:40. And during a part of the night (also), glorify His praises (i.e. Maghrib and 'Isha prayers), and (so likewise) after the prayers [As-Sunnah, Nawâfil optional and additional prayers, and also glorify, praise and magnify Allâh - Subhân Allâh, Alhamdu lillâh, Allâhu-Akbar].

    What do they say when they pray? "Allahu Akbar!"  What do they say when they prey? "Allahu Akbar!" In their attacks it is a curse and instrument of terror. In their salat it is a confidence builder. Their prayers are pep rallies for terrorism. 

    The intent is to reinforce the faith of the Muslims while terrifying their intended victims; to appear courageous and invincible, rendering the victims fearful, confused and disorganized; scattering them so that they can not mount an effective defense. 

    Large rallies, demonstrations and prayer sessions with shouts of "Allahu Akbar!"are intended to afford Islam an image of mass and energy; overwhelming numbers, rapidly growing, which can not be resisted.   When Muslims prostrate themselves in the streets of large cities, they are not praying, they are preying; casting terror.

    In March of 2010, the HRC passed another hypocritical and deceptive resolution. This clause from the resolution stands out like a sore thumb.

7. Expresses deep concern, in this respect, that Islam is frequently and wrongly associated with human rights violations and terrorism;

Who  associated Islam with terrorism?  Death & damnation to such a foul fiend!!  Guess who.
  • 3:151  We shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve,...
  • 8:12   ...I will cast terror into the hearts of those who have disbelieved, so strike them over the necks, and smite over all their fingers and toes....
  • 8:57  If thou comest on them in the war, deal with them so as to strike fear in those who are behind them, that haply they may remember.
  • 8:60  ...to strike terror into (the hearts of) the enemies, of God and your enemies,...
  • 33:26  ...God did take them down from their strongholds and cast terror into their hearts. (So that) some ye slew, and some ye made prisoners....
  • 59:2  ...But Allâh's (Torment) reached them from a place whereof they expected it not, and He cast terror into their hearts, so that they destroyed their own dwellings with their own hands and the hands of the believers. Then take admonition, O you with eyes...
  • 59:13  Verily, you (believers in the Oneness of Allâh - Islâmic Monotheism) are more awful as a fear in their (Jews of Banî An-Nadîr) breasts than Allâh....
  • Sahih Bukhari1.7.331   ...Allah made me victorious by awe, (by His frightening my enemies) for a distance of one month's journey. ...
  • Sahih Bukhari4.52.220  ...I have been made victorious with terror...
    Did I curse Daniel Pipes, Robert Spencer & Pamela Geller?  Did I curse Ray Ibrahim and Walid Shoebat? Did I curse myself?  No!!   I curse those who associated Islam with terrorism: Allah and Muhammad, death & eternal damnation be upon them with all putrid & prurient substances, in the hottest fires of Hell!!!

    This is not hate speech.  This is not inciting hatred.  This is not inciting violence.  This is exposing hate speech & incitement.  

Islamic Right: to Rape

Is there a right to rape?  Only if there is a right to practice Islam. In the first post in this series on the right to practice Islam, we established the fact that aggressively attacking disbelievers is a "religious obligation" binding on Muslims as fard al-kifaya,  This post will establish the fact that taking, enslaving and raping captives is a permitted & approved practice of Islam.

   

Sheik Taj Aldin al Hilali, The Chief Cleric of Sydney, Australia's largest mosque, ignited a firestorm of criticism following a recent sermon in which he described women appearing publicly without head scarves as "uncovered meat."

al Hilali said, "If you take out uncovered meat and place it outside... without cover, and the cats come to eat it...whose fault is it, the cat's or the uncovered meat's?"

    That story should be your first clue but I have more clues for you. Lets begin with the Noble Qur'an.  Allah implicitly allows sexual exploitation of captive women.

Right hands possess

4:24. Also (forbidden are) women already married, except those (captives and slaves) whom your right hands possess. Thus has Allâh ordained for you. All others are lawful, provided you seek (them in marriage) with Mahr (bridal money given by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage) from your property, desiring chastity, not committing illegal sexual intercourse, so with those of whom you have enjoyed sexual relations, give them their Mahr as prescribed; but if after a Mahr is prescribed, you agree mutually (to give more), there is no sin on you. Surely, Allâh is Ever All­Knowing, All­Wise.

    Married women are off limits unless you own them (captives and slaves). Other instances of the expression include: 4:3, 52, 36, 16:71, 23:5-6, 24:31, 30:28, 33:50, 70:29-30,  How would Muslims captivate women?  Allah has the answer for us.

33:26. And those of the people of the Scripture who backed them (the disbelievers) Allâh brought them down from their forts and cast terror into their hearts, (so that) a group (of them) you killed, and a group (of them) you made captives.

Some Jews sided with the pagan Arabs upon whom Moe made war and Moe made war on them also. Who was the group he captivated?  God bless you, I want you to know and to understand. This is to inform, not to incite hatred, though hatred is well warranted. Tafsir Ibn Kathir has the answer for us.
[...](a group you killed, and a group you made captives.) Those who were killed were their warriors, and the prisoners were their children and women. Imam Ahmad recorded that `Atiyah Al-Qurazi said, "I was shown to the Prophet on the day of Qurayzah, because they were not sure about me. The Prophet told them to look at me to see whether I had grown any body hair yet. They looked and saw that I had not grown any body hair, so they let me go and I was put with the other prisoners.'' This was also recorded by the Sunan compilers, and At-Tirmidhi said it is Hasan Sahih.'' An-Nasa'i also recorded something similar from `Atiyah. [...] [http://www.tafsir.com/default.asp?sid= 33&tid= 41512]

The captives were women & children.  Note the hadith quoting Atiyah al-Qurazi: what would have been done to him if he had reached puberty?  Another hadith holds the answer, and it ain't pleasant.

Sunan  Abu Dawud Book 38, Number 4390:
Narrated Atiyyah al-Qurazi:
I was among the captives of Banu Qurayzah. They (the Companions) examined us, and those who had begun to grow hair (pubes) were killed, and those who had not were not killed. I was among those who had not grown hair.

Had Atiyya grown pubic hair, he would have been killed. Do you comprehend this?  What happened to their mothers and sisters??

Sahih Bukhari Volume 5, Book 59, Number 459:

Narrated Ibn Muhairiz:

I entered the Mosque and saw Abu Said Al-Khudri and sat beside him and asked him about Al-Azl (i.e. coitus interruptus). Abu Said said, "We went out with Allah's Apostle for the Ghazwa of Banu Al-Mustaliq and we received captives from among the Arab captives and we desired women and celibacy became hard on us and we loved to do coitus interruptus. So when we intended to do coitus interrupt us, we said, 'How can we do coitus interruptus before asking Allah's Apostle who is present among us?" We asked (him) about it and he said, 'It is better for you not to do so, for if any soul (till the Day of Resurrection) is predestined to exist, it will exist."[See also: Sahih Muslim 8.3371, 3373, 3376 & 3377]

Moe gave implicit permission to rape captives!!!  Did Moe join in the fun?

Sahih Bukhari Volume 5, Book 59, Number 512:
Narrated Anas:
The Prophet offered the Fajr Prayer near Khaibar when it was still dark and then said, "Allahu-Akbar! Khaibar is destroyed, for whenever we approach a (hostile) nation (to fight), then evil will be the morning for those who have been warned." Then the inhabitants of Khaibar came out running on the roads. The Prophet had their warriors killed, their offspring and woman taken as captives. Safiya was amongst the captives, She first came in the share of Dahya Alkali but later on she belonged to the Prophet . The Prophet made her manumission as her 'Mahr'. [See also: Sahih Bukhari 4.52.143]

Moe took sex slaves for himself from among the captives. He claimed the top 20%, first pick. See the secondary reference immediately above and 8:41.

    I displayed to you ayat explicitly permitting sexual exploitation of slaves. I displayed to you hadith implicitly permitting raping captives.  I displayed ample evidence that Moe joined in the fun. What more do you need to know?  Islamic law.

  • O9.13

    When a child or a woman is taken captive, they become slaves by the fact of capture, and the woman's previous marriage is immediately annulled.

    If there is a right to practice Islam then there is a right to captivate and rape women. Enslavement & rape are sunnah; Muslims must emulate Moe.  Exactly what part of that do you not comprehend?  Exactly what part of that meets with your approval? Please explain your position in a comment.

Right: Peaceful Practice of Islam

Even before the horrific Oslo massacre, the UN, the Department of State, assorted preachers and media bloviators were demanding that we "respect" and "tolerate" Islam and recognize what they postulate as a "right to peacefully practice Islam".
   
    Since the massacre, those contumacious demands are increasing in volume and becoming more strident.  Those of us who expose, question and  criticize Islam are being accused of "hate speech" and "inciting violence".  It is asserted that we "inspired" the massacre.

    Hillary Clinton said that the best response to "hate speech" is better speech, not censorship. Of course, to that extent, she was right. But the rising tide of calumny against critics of Islam deserves a response. That is why I am commencing a series of posts on the supposed right to practice Islam.

    This blog post includes quotes from and links to the Hilali & Khan Noble Qur'an, a table of 37 parallel translations, three hadith collections and two codifications of Islamic law. Doubters & dissenters are invited to follow the links, verify the quotes and explore their contexts before responding with comments.

    You can try to shout me down, you can demand censorship, but you can not logically deny my evidence or my conclusions.

Right to Genocidal Conquest

    It is postulated that Muslims have a right to practice Islam. If so, they have a right to engage in genocidal conquest. The practice of Islam involves submission to Allah. Submission to Allah includes obedience to his imperatives. His imperatives include global conquest. Conquest includes genocide.

Obey Allah and his Messenger

    This command occurs in six ayat of the Noble Qur'an as translated by Hilali & Khan:  8:1, 20,  46, 9:71, 33:33 and 49:14.  I will quote only the latter instance and the verse which follows it.
  • 49:14.  The bedouins say: "We believe." Say: "You believe not but you only say, 'We have surrendered (in Islâm),' for Faith has not yet entered your hearts. But if you obey Allâh and His Messenger, He will not decrease anything in reward for your deeds. Verily, Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."

    49:15. Only those are the believers who have believed in Allâh and His Messenger, and afterward doubt not but strive with their wealth and their lives for the Cause of Allâh. Those! They are the truthful. 

There is something about believers: they strive with their lives in Allah's cause, which is supremacism.
  • 9:33. It is He Who has sent His Messenger (Muhammad ) with guidance and the religion of truth (Islâm), to make it superior over all religions even though the Mushrikûn (polytheists, pagans, idolaters, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh) hate (it).
  • 48:28. He it is Who has sent His Messenger (Muhammad ) with guidance and the religion of truth (Islâm), that He may make it (Islâm) superior over all religions. And All-Sufficient is Allâh as a Witness. 
  • 61:9. He it is Who has sent His Messenger (Muhammad) with guidance and the religion of truth (Islâmic Monotheism) to make it victorious over all (other) religions even though the Mushrikûn (polytheists, pagans, idolaters, and disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh and in His Messenger Muhammed) hate (it).
Of 37 parallel translations at Islam Awakened, 18 use  prevail over. Amatul Rahman Omar uses triumph and Tahir-ul-Qadri Mohammad uses dominant.  In 61:9, M.M Pickthall uses conqueror. Rashid Khalifa and Tahir-ul-Qadri Mohammad use dominate.

    How is Islam to be made superior, triumphant, prevalent, dominant or the conqueror?  Is it by proof, by trial, by debate or by proselytism? 

  • Sahih Bukhari  Volume 4, Book 52, Number 65:

    Narrated Abu Musa:

    A man came to the Prophet and asked, "A man fights for war booty; another fights for fame and a third fights for showing off; which of them fights in Allah's Cause?" The Prophet said, "He who fights that Allah's Word (i.e. Islam) should be superior, fights in Allah's Cause." [See also 1.3.125, 9.93.550 & 9.93.625]

Islam is to be made superior by warfare. 

Global Conquest

    Muslims are commanded to wage war against disbelievers until resistance ceases and only Allah is worshiped on a global scale.
  • 8:38. Say to those who have disbelieved, if they cease (from disbelief) their past will be forgiven. But if they return (thereto), then the examples of those (punished) before them have already preceded (as a warning).

    8:39. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism: i.e. worshipping others besides Allâh) and the religion (worship) will all be for Allâh Alone [in the whole of the world ]. But if they cease (worshipping others besides Allâh), then certainly, Allâh is All-Seer of what they do.

    • Every Prophet used to be sent to his nation only but I have been sent to all mankind. [Sahih Bukhari 1.7.331]
    Muslims are commanded to wage war against Jews, Christians and Zoroastrians until they are subjugated and extorted.
  • 9:29. Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allâh, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allâh and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islâm) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued. 
  • 9:123. O you who believe! Fight those of the disbelievers who are close to you, and let them find harshness in you, and know that Allâh is with those who are the Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2).
    Those imperatives are confirmed by ahadith, of which I will quote one and link to others.
  • Sahih Bukhari Volume 1, Book 8, Number 387:
    Narrated Anas bin Malik:
    Allah's Apostle said, "I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.' And if they say so, pray like our prayers, face our Qibla and slaughter as we slaughter, then their blood and property will be sacred to us and we will not interfere with them except legally and their reckoning will be with Allah." Narrated Maimun ibn Siyah that he asked Anas bin Malik, "O Abu Hamza! What makes the life and property of a person sacred?" He replied, "Whoever says, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah', faces our Qibla during the prayers, prays like us and eats our slaughtered animal, then he is a Muslim, and has got the same rights and obligations as other Muslims have."  [See also: 9.92.388, 4.52.196 & Sunan Abu Dawud 14.2635 ]
    Those imperatives are codified in Shari'ah. Attacking disbelievers while they are peacefully minding their own affairs in their own countries is far al-kifaya, an annual obligation binding upon all eligible  adult male Muslims until a sufficient number have participated, at which point the others are relieved.
  • Reliance of the Traveller, O9.1:

    The Obligatory Character of Jihad

    Jihad is a communal obligation (def: c3.2).  When enough people perform it to successfully accomplish it, it is no longer obligatory upon others (O: the evidence for which is the Prophet's saying (Allah bless him and give him peace),

    "He who provides the equipment for a soldier in jihad has himself performed jihad,"

    and Allah Most High having said:

    "Those of the believers who are unhurt but sit behind are not equal to those who fight in Allah's path with their property and lives. Allah has preferred those who fight with their property and lives a whole degree above those who sit behind. And to each, Allah has promised great good" (Koran 4:95).

    If none of those concerned perform jihad, and it does not happen at all, then everyone who is aware that it is obligatory is guilty of sin, if there was a possibility of having performed it. In the time of the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) jihad was a communal obligation after his emigration (hijra) to Medina. As for subsequent times, there are two possible states in respect to non-Muslims.

    The first is when they are in their own countries, in which case jihad (def: o9.8) is a communal obligation, and this is what our author is speaking of when he says, "Jihad is a communal obligation," meaning upon the Muslims each year.

    The second state is when non-Muslims invade a Muslim country or near to one, in which case jihad is personally obligatory (def: c3.2) upon the inhabitants of that country, who must repel the non-Muslims with whatever they can).

    What does the caliph do about  that annual obligation of military expeditions against disbelievers? He wages war. He fights people of the book until they are converted or subjugated and pagans until they are converted or dead. 
  •  

    O9.8: The Objectives of Jihad

    The caliph (o25) makes war upon Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians (N: provided he has first invited them to enter Islam in faith and practice, and if they will not, then invited them to enter the social order of Islam by paying the non-Muslim poll tax (jizya, def: o11.4) -which is the significance of their paying it, not the money itself-while remaining in their ancestral religions) (O: and the war continues) until they become Muslim or else pay the non-Muslim poll tax (O: in accordance with the word of Allah Most High,

    "Fight those who do not believe in Allah and the Last Day and who forbid not what Allah and His messenger have forbidden-who do not practice the religion of truth, being of those who have been given the Book-until they pay the poll tax out of hand and are humbled" (Koran 9.29),

    the time and place for which is before the final descent of Jesus (upon whom be peace).  After his final coming, nothing but Islam will be accepted from them, for taking the poll tax is only effective until Jesus' descent (upon him and our Prophet be peace), which is the divinely revealed law of Muhammad. The coming of Jesus does not entail a separate divinely revealed law, for he will rule by the law of Muhammad. As for the Prophet's saying (Allah bless him and give him peace),

    "I am the last, there will be no prophet after me,"

    this does not contradict the final coming of Jesus (upon whom be peace), since he will not rule according to the Evangel, but as a follower of our Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) ).

    O9.9

    The caliph fights all other peoples until they become Muslim (O: because they are not a people with a Book, nor honored as such, and are not permitted to settle with paying the poll tax (jizya) ) (n: though according to the Hanafi school, peoples of all other religions, even idol worshippers, are permitted to live under the protection of the Islamic state if they either become Muslim or agree to pay the poll tax, the sole exceptions to which are apostates from Islam and idol worshippers who are Arabs, neither of whom has any choice but becoming Muslim (al-Hidaya sharh Bidaya al-mubtadi' (y21), 6.48-49) ).

     

Islam only fights defensively

    One might believe that lie if one read only Surah Al-Baqara  2:190-191.
  • 2:190. And fight in the Way of Allâh those who fight you, but transgress not the limits. Truly, Allâh likes not the transgressors. [This Verse is the first one that was revealed in connection with Jihâd, but it was supplemented by another (V.9:36)].

    2:191. And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah is worse than killing. And fight not with them at Al-Masjid-al-Harâm (the sanctuary at Makkah), unless they (first) fight you there. But if they attack you, then kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers.

To fully realize the fallacy of the lie one must read Sahih Muslim 19.4294. Since it is lengthy, I will quote only the most relevant paragraphs.
  • When you meet your enemies who are polytheists invite them to three courses of action. If they respond to any one of these, you also accept it and withold yourself from doing them any harm. Invite them to (accept) Islam; if they respond to you, accept it from them and desist from fighting against them.
  • Then invite them to migrate from their lands to the land of Muhairs and inform them that, if they do so, they shall have all the privileges and obligations of the Muhajirs. If they refuse to migrate, tell them that they will have the status of Bedouin Muilims and will be subjected to the Commands of Allah like other Muslims, but they will not get any share from the spoils of war or Fai' except when they actually fight with the Muslims (against the disbelievers).
  • If they refuse to accept Islam, demand from them the Jizya. If they agree to pay, accept it from them and hold off your hands. If they refuse to pay the tax, seek Allah's help and fight them

Not aggressors

    Hedaya, the handbook of Hanifi fiqh, makes the initiative absolutely explicit. This quote comes from Volume II, Book IX, Chapter 1, Page 141.
  • The destruction of the sword  is incurred by infidels, although they be not the first aggressors, as appears from various passages in the  sacred writings which are generally received this effect. 
Disbelievers are to be attacked, after inviting them to Islam, while they are in their own countries, although they are not aggressors. Is it clear for you yet?

Genocide

    Moe wanted loot; Allah wanted to get Moe into Paradise. What was his price of admission?
  • 8:67. It is not for a Prophet that he should have prisoners of war (and free them with ransom) until he had made a great slaughter (among his enemies) in the land. You desire the good of this world (i.e. the money of ransom for freeing the captives), but Allâh desires (for you) the Hereafter. And Allâh is All-Mighty, All-Wise. 
  • 47:4. So, when you meet (in fight Jihâd in Allâh's Cause), those who disbelieve smite at their necks till when you have killed and wounded many of them, then bind a bond firmly (on them, i.e. take them as captives). Thereafter (is the time) either for generosity (i.e. free them without ransom), or ransom (according to what benefits Islâm), until the war lays down its burden. Thus [you are ordered by Allâh to continue in carrying out Jihâd against the disbelievers till they embrace Islâm (i.e. are saved from the punishment in the Hell-fire) or at least come under your protection], but if it had been Allâh's Will, He Himself could certainly have punished them (without you). But (He lets you fight), in order to test you, some with others. But those who are killed in the Way of Allâh, He will never let their deeds be lost, 

Anachronism?


    Surely those imperatives must be outdated, no longer applicable. Unfortunately, the Qur'an is perfected and final. Jihad continues to the last day.
  • Sunan Abu Dawud Book 14, Number 2526


        Narrated Anas ibn Malik:

        The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: Three things are the roots of faith: to refrain from (killing) a person who utters, "There is no god but Allah" and not to declare him unbeliever whatever sin he commits, and not to excommunicate him from Islam for his any action; and jihad will be performed continuously since the day Allah sent me as a prophet until the day the last member of my community will fight with the Dajjal (Antichrist). The tyranny of any tyrant and the justice of any just (ruler) will not invalidate it. One must have faith in Divine decree.

Gates of Paradise  

    The gates of Paradise won't swing open for Muslims until they fight and kill the last Jew.  Two elements are combined in this hadith: genocide & continuity.
  • Sahih Muslim Book 041, Number 6985:
    Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews. [See also: Sahih Bukhari 4.52.177]

Constant & continuous

    Hedaya informed us that jihad is undertaken on Islamic initiative. It also informs us that jihad must not be stopped. 
  • Marginal note: pg 153
    • War must be carried on against the Infidels, at all times, by some party of the Muslims. 

Most Muslims Don't believe in jihad

    Isn't that wonderful. Most Muslims don't believe in or practice jihad. Are they Muslims or not?  What must Muslims do first and foremost?
  • obey Allâh and His Messenger
    • Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allâh
Are they Muslims or not? Do they obey Allah or not? Do they obey Moe or not?  Of course not! They pick and choose what they want from the Qur'an. Yeah, right.
  • 2:85. After this, it is you who kill one another and drive out a party of you from their homes, assist (their enemies) against them, in sin and transgression. And if they come to you as captives, you ransom them, although their expulsion was forbidden to you. Then do you believe in a part of the Scripture and reject the rest? Then what is the recompense of those who do so among you, except disgrace in the life of this world, and on the Day of Resurrection they shall be consigned to the most grievous torment. And Allâh is not unaware of what you do. 

personal penalty

    What will Allah do to the Muslim who shirks jihad; who neither fights, prays for victory, spreads propaganda nor supports it financially?
  • 9:38. O you who believe! What is the matter with you, that when you are asked to march forth in the Cause of Allâh (i.e. Jihâd) you cling heavily to the earth? Are you pleased with the life of this world rather than the Hereafter? But little is the enjoyment of the life of this world as compared with the Hereafter.

    9:39. If you march not forth, He will punish you with a painful torment and will replace you by another people, and you cannot harm Him at all, and Allâh is Able to do all things. 

  • 61:10. O You who believe! Shall I guide you to a commerce that will save you from a painful torment.

    61:11.  That you believe in Allâh and His Messenger (Muhammad ), and that you strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allâh with your wealth and your lives, that will be better for you, if you but know! 

communal penalty

    If Muslims abandon jihad in favor of agriculture or commerce, Allah will make disgrace to prevail over them and not withdraw the curse until they return to their "original religion".
  • Sunan Abu Dawud Book 23, Number 3455:

    Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar:

    I heard the Apostle of Allah, (peace_be_upon_him) say: When you enter into the inah transaction, hold the tails of oxen, are pleased with agriculture, and give up conducting jihad (struggle in the way of Allah). Allah will make disgrace prevail over you, and will not withdraw it until you return to your original religion.

Jihad is their "original religion". You say that Muslims have a right to "practice their religion".  You said that Muslims have a right to wage war against us. You are a traitor and a damned fool. Take a clear eyed look at the legal definition of jihad. It is not struggle with ego, it is warfare against us.
  • Chapter O9.0: Jihad

    (O: Jihad means to war against non-Muslims, and is etymologically derived from the word mujahada signifying warfare to establish the religion. And it is the lesser jihad. As for the greater jihad, it is spiritual warfare against the lower self (nafs), which is why the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) said as he was returning from jihad.

    ``We have returned from the lesser jihad to the greater jihad.''

    The scriptural basis for jihad, prior to scholarly consensus (def: b7) is such Koranic verses as:

    -1- ``Fighting is prescribed for you'' (Koran 2:216);

    -2- ``Slay them wherever you find them'' (Koran 4:89);

    -3- ``Fight the idolators utterly'' (Koran 9:36);

    and such hadiths as the one related by Bukhari and Muslim that the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) said:

    ``I have been commanded to fight people until they testify that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and perform the prayer, and pay zakat. If they say it, they have saved their blood and possessions from me, except for the rights of Islam over them. And their final reckoning is with Allah'';

    and the hadith reported by Muslim,

    ``To go forth in the morning or evening to fight in the path of Allah is better than the whole world and everything in it.''Details concerning jihad are found in the accounts of the military expeditions of the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace), including his own martial forays and those on which he dispatched others. The former consist of the ones he personally attended, some twenty-seven (others say twenty-nine) of them. He fought in eight of them, and killed only one person with his noble hand, Ubayy ibn Khalaf, at the battle of Uhud. On the latter expeditions he sent others to fight, himself remaining at Medina, and these were forty-seven in number.)


Fighting, praying or paying

    If Muslims ain't engaged in jihad, praying for victory over us or supporting it with tongue and pen, they are paying for it.  Zakat is one of the five pillars of Islam. One eighth of zakat must be paid to those "fighting in Allah's cause". Zakat  of 2.5% is levied on income, accumulated wealth and financial transactions. What was that Holy Land Foundation trial about??
  • H8.17: Those Fighting for Allah

    The seventh category is those fighting for Allah, meaning people engaged in Islamic military operations for whom no salary has been allotted in the army roster (O: but who are volunteers for jihad without remuneration).  They are given enough to suffice them for the operation, even if affluent; of weapons, mounts, clothing, and expenses (O: for the duration of the journey, round trip, and the time they spend there, even if prolonged. Though nothing has been mentioned here of the expense involved in supporting such people's families during this period, it seems clear that they should also be given it).

Peaceful Practice   of Islam

    Its the ultimate oxymoron. Islam is submission; obedience to Allah; emulation of Moe. What did Allah command? What did Moe do? What did Moe say about those imperatives? What did he say about the duration of jihad? What is the original religion of Islam? What is Islamic law on Jihad? What does the caliph do? Why??
