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

Kuwaiti royal prince declares conversion to Christianity: “if they kill me because of it, then I will appear before Jesus Christ”

Jan 21, 2012 9:24 am By Robert Spencer

Why would Abdullah al-Sabah think he might be murdered for exercising his freedom of conscience? After all, Muslim spokesmen such as Salam al-Marayati, M. Cherif Bassiouni, and Ali Eteraz (among many others) have assured us that Islam has no death penalty for apostasy.

Unfortunately, in doing so they fool credulous Westerners, but they disagree with Muhammad, the prophet of Islam, who said, “Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him” (Bukhari 9.84.57). And all the schools of Islamic law still teach that death is the proper penalty for apostates.

In a sane world, this would be an international human rights issue, with calls from the UN to protect apostates from Islam. But this is not a sane world.

“Kuwait: The prince’s mysterious conversion,” by Marco Tosatti for Vatican Insider, January 16 (thanks to Jerry Newcombe):

According to reports, a Kuwaiti royal prince has become a follower of Jesus Christ. In an audio file posted with his name, he affirms that if he is killed because of a recording he made where he talks about his conversion, he firmly believes that he will meet Jesus Christ face-to-face. The news comes from Middle Eastern sources which state that al-Haqiqa — a Christian satellite TV channel in Arabic that transmits Christian religious programmes — broadcast an audio file attributed to the Kuwaiti prince, identified as Abdullah al-Sabah. The al-Sabahs are the royal family of Kuwait, a country rich in oil. The name Abdullah (servant of God) frequently appears in the Emir’s family tree.

In his audio file, Abdullah declared: “First of all, I fully agree with the distribution of this audio file and I now declare that if they kill me because of it, then I will appear before Jesus Christ and be with him for all eternity.” In this statement, the prince demonstrates his awareness of the fate in store for a martyr of the faith, according to Christian doctrine. The television channel stated that Abdullah is a member of the royal family, and that he recently renounced his faith in Islam and became a Christian, without specifying which particular branch of Christianity he had chosen. After stating his full name, the prince declared: “I will accept whatever they do to me, because the truth in the Bible has guided me towards the right path.”

In the audio file, Abdullah talks about the Islamic groups that are winning the elections in Egypt and declares: “Islamic communities have always wanted to attack in different parts of the world but God has preserved the world and still protects it. This is why we have recently seen disagreements appearing among Islamic groups who are now fighting with each other. They are about to divide further into different groups.”

Mohabat News, a Christian Iranian website which has been following the fate of Christian minorities in the Middle East closely and which has monitored Abdullah’s statement, confirms that this news was published briefly by Arabic news agencies and also by the Iranian state news agency. Some independent websites with Shiite leanings denied the reports and quoted another Kuwaiti prince, Azbi al-Sabah, who said: “There’s no one by that name in the Kuwaiti royal family.” In actual fact, the name Abdullah does not appear on the list of the 15 members of the royal family who rule this small, extremely wealthy country in different capacities: from the Sheikh down to Princess Nijirah al-Sabah, who testified in the US Congress under the assumed name of “Nurse Nayirah” on the humanitarian situation in the country after the invasion by Saddam Hussein’s Iraq and just before the Gulf War. That isn’t to say that this high-profile convert is not hidden somewhere within the extended family, under a different name.

In Kuwait the overwhelming majority of the population is Muslim (only 4% is Christian) and the country”s Constitution states: “Islam is the official religion of the country and Sharia is the main source for legislation.”…

    There are several points to indicate that this is a very suspect report.

    Some independent websites with Shiite leanings denied the reports

    So why would shia mohammedans, deny this, considering the royal family is sunni. Normally shiites would use this to ridicule the sunnis.

    Abdullah talks about the Islamic groups that are winning the elections in Egypt

    This tape first appeared on Truth Sat Christian TV Channel Live in the beginning of 2011, before there was any plans for the elections, and if one can remember the islamists where keeping a low profile when campaigning began, in fact it was uploaded to youtube on the 27 march 20011, so there is a chance the tape was recorded while Mubarak was still in power.

    let me share a tidbit of information with everyone:

    The Pledge in use today, written by Francis Bellamy in 1892, was modified by the U.S. Congress in 1954 by adding the words “under God” and in effe lct turning it into an unconstitutional public prayer. There are millions of Americans who believe in God but do not believe they are “under” God. Some find God within their own hearts while others believe they are part of –not under– a divine power or sacred universe. Still others do not believe in God at all. The religious beliefs of these Americans are violated by our government, in schools, in public meetings, or anywhere the Pledge is recited
    >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    N.B:-But rise, and stand upon thy feet : for I heave appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister a witness both of these things in the which thou hast seen, and of those things, in the which I will appear unto thee;
    Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee, To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of SATAN unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.[THE ACTS 26:16-18]

    Appearance and Reality
    Many of us tend to respond to people and situations based on the outward appearance and the five senses. This approach to life is encouraged and exploited by the evil one. To grow well and serve the Lord effectively, we must learn to perceive the reality accurately and respond to people and situations from the perspective of God’s kingdom, in the light of God’s revelation in the Scriptures and by the guidance of the Holy Spirit. This series of 287 messages considers the major areas and issues of the Christian faith under three major categories: 1. People, 2. Situations, 3. Conduct, service and action.
