Jihad Watch

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

“Muslims are masters of the world, its leaders and teachers, even if the West rejects this.”

Oct 2, 2007 1:26 pm By Robert Spencer

“The Muslims and their societies are more advanced and more sublime than the West and its societies.” Masters of the Universe.

By Itamar Marcus and Barbara Crook for PMW:

One of the defining principles of Hamas and the Islamic Brotherhood is their insistence that the only truth is Islam and that the world is destined to be enlightened only when ruled by Islam. A similar Islamic supremacist ideology was expressed recently in an article by a Palestinian Authority religious leader who was appointed last year by Mahmoud Abbas as member of the Supreme Fatwa Council: “Muslims are masters of the world, its leaders and teachers, even if the West rejects this.”

“The Muslims and their societies are more advanced and more sublime than the West and its societies”¦ are more perfect in value system and humanity. The fact that there are those who believe that these are Western values — it is a delusion and false, since the Muslims are masters of the world, its leaders and teachers, even if the West rejects this.”

This continues the ongoing social-religious evolution that PMW has been reporting for some time, in which the radical Islamic ideology of Hamas is being adopted by the Fatah of Mahmoud Abbas. See PMW’s recent report on the newest PA schoolbooks, “From Nationalist Battle to Religious Conflict”.

The following was written by Dr. Hamza Dhib Mustafa, member of the Supreme Fatwa Council, appointed by Abbas in August 2006:

“To what does the publication of the declaration of human rights in the West testify in 1948? Didn’t Islam issue something much greater 14 centuries ago?

[…]

“Yet, these rights”¦ Islam espoused them 14 centuries ago”¦ Europe and the West in general, would never have reached these principles, had they not been influenced by the advanced Islamic culture and had they not borrowed much from it, including this declaration”¦

“Islamic societies are cultured, humane and righteous societies, since oppression had not found its way to them and the killing did not spread nor extend among them. They do not go beyond the punishment defined by Islamic law with all that pertains to human rights, regardless of their religion, race, color and their countries [of origin], since human beings are equal from the point of view of Islam”¦ Everyone is equal under the law in terms of their rights and obligations”¦

“It says in the Quran”¦ in the words [of Allah], praise him: “O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise each other). Verily the most honored of you in the sight of Allah is (he who is) the most righteous of you.” [Quran, 49,13]

“This and more, Islam promises various rights to the human. It promises him freedom of religion and citizenship, freedom of thought, the right to property, political freedom and his right to employment. The thing that has no doubt”¦ is that Islam preceded Europe and the West, in general, with all that pertains to matters of human rights by no less than 13 centuries “¦

“The Muslims and their societies are more advanced and more sublime than the West and its societies. They are earlier in human civilization, and are more perfect in value system and humanity. The fact that there are those who believe that these are Western values — it is a delusion and false, since the Muslims are masters, leaders and teachers of the world, even if the West rejects this. It is no wonder that this is rejected by the West, the most eager rival of Islam, its followers and its culture. But shocking and amazing is that these are opinions of some Muslims, and this misdirects their compass from the path of truth, righteousness and wisdom.

“Quite a number of the People of the Book [Jews and Christians] wish they could turn you (Muslims) back to be infidels after you have believed, from selfish envy, after the Truth hath become Manifest unto them.” [Quran, 2,109]

[Dr. Hamza Dhib Mustafa, member of the Palestinian Authority Supreme Fatwa Council, Al Quds, Aug. 28, 2007]
