Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

UK: Exposed: The New Preacher of Hate

Feb 8, 2005 10:01 am By Robert Spencer

Good thing they got Abu Hamza out of the notorious Finsbury Park mosque in Britain, so that a level-headed moderate Muslim could take over, right? Um, sorry: introducing Abu Abdullah, who looks to be a worthy successor of Abu Hamza as a “ranting preacher of hate.” Note his labeling of self-proclaimed moderate Muslims as “apostates.”

From the Mirror, with thanks to Reality Gaps:

Posing as a student of Islamic studies, Mirror reporter Bobby Pathak infiltrated the North London mosque for six weeks in December and January….

[Abdullah] compares the scandal of Abu Ghraib prison – where US soldiers forced Iraqis to strip and simulate sex – to the Christian Crusades, warning that Islam is once again under attack.

Then he turns on the faithful for allowing these sins to happen.

Worshippers bow their heads in shame as he shouts: “How can we go home and sleep at night knowing there are millions of Muslims screaming for our help?

“Do we not have a conscience? Or do we think that we’re doing the right thing? Brothers and sisters, the time has come for us to stand up and be counted. Behave like Muslims.

“It’s the least you can do so you can find reward on yaum al-qiyamah (afterlife). Otherwise, the fire is beckoning.”…

He says: “While we fast and worship Allah these shaitan (devils) mock Allah’s religion and put Allah’s religion to the sword.” In just a few minutes, he talks of the slaughter of Muslims on eight different occasions. Like all good propaganda it is based in truth though twisted beyond recognition.

But worshippers are not being asked to cheer these words as a call to arms.

Instead, they are being chastised for living comfortable lives when they should be out there defending Islam and honouring brothers and sisters who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the struggle against the infidel.TODAY, in what appears to be cynical manipulation, we are urged not to fear being labelled extremists. Abdullah says: “They call us extremists. They see us as strange. Our honourable brothers in Guantanamo, they’ve become strange. Why? Because they’re the Haq (truth) and we’ve let them down.

“We’ve forgotten these people in Afghanistan, in prisons, our mothers, sisters that have been raped.”

Next come the threats: “Allah constantly sends us signs in our eyes and we turn away. The tsunami disaster – Muslims died in this.

“But on these Muslim lands, zina (sinful fornication), night-clubs…the Muslims wanted to dilute the dean (greatness) of Allah.”

Abdullah demands sacrifices, citing those who give their lives or freedom for their religion.

JANUARY 28

STRANGELY, some young worshippers are dressed in designer gear, Nike trainers and Levi jeans, and sport neatly trimmed goatee beards.

Abdullah is not pleased. He warns: “You’ll become diseased if you start to behave like the kuffar (disbelievers). Why are we ashamed to grow beards? Why are we ashamed to look like Muslims amongst these filthy kuffar?”

He tells them they sin when they wear a T-shirt “showing muscles” if that makes women think impurely. And women sin when they wear make-up outside the house and “tight trousers with a hijab (veil)”.

Abdullah saves his most stinging rebuke for mosques and campaigners fighting the prejudice faced by British Muslims since September 11.

He accuses the respected Muslim Council of Great Britain – which has demonstrated peacefully against war in Iraq and the indefinite detention of terror suspects without trial – of campaigning to “imprison Muslims”.

He says: “Like the Jews that practise the Torah, they want to practise what’s good for them and brush aside or sweep under the carpet what they dislike.

“Stand up against these murtads (leavers of the faith) who say they’re the spokesmen or they represent the Islamic community in this country.”
