Islamic State calls for killing of creator of Muslim comic “The 99”

Jul 15, 2014 11:19 pm By Robert Spencer

comics-the-99Mutawa says: “My work has glorified Islam from the US to China for the past ten years.” The Islamic State, however, disagrees, asking: “Who can kill Nayef Al- Mutawa who makes fun of Allah’s names?” This is the reason why we don’t see more genuine Islamic reformers (which is not to say by any means that Nayef Al-Mutawa is one): it happens all too often that when a Muslim speaks out against understandings of Islam that justify violence and supremacism, they are targeted with threats and physical attacks by those who hold to those understandings. Note, for example, the cases of Sheikh Abdullah al-Hassan and activist Ahmed Assid.

“ISIL calls for killing ‘The 99’ creator,” Kuwait Times, July 15, 2014 (thanks to Twostellas):

KUWAIT: The creator of an Islam inspired popular comic series said that he takes death threats made by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and Al-Qaeda seriously. Following their recent call to kill former MP Waleed Al-Tabtabaei, ISIL has called for killing psychiatrist Dr Nayef Al-Mutawa, the creator of ‘The 99’ series as they deemed it slanderous to Islam because it imitates the 99 names of Almighty Allah.

ISIL called in a series of Twitter posts for “[killing] Nayef Al-Mutawa …whoever finds him, kill him, and he will be rewarded”. Mutawa announced in a phone call to Al-Watan daily from the US that he plans to take legal action against those behind the Twitter account which posted the call to assassinate him.

Mutawa defended his “humanitarian artwork”, saying that he received clearance from sharia scholars who told him that the idea and the comics do not contain insults to Almighty Allah or Islam, adding that he would have never went ahead with his project if they did.

ISIL’s tweets appeared earlier this week and called for assassinating Mutawa as soon as possible. “There is no good in us if he remains alive for over three days,” said the call on which both ISIL and Al- Qaeda agreed upon despite their disagreements. “Who can kill Nayef Al- Mutawa who makes fun of Allah’s names?” said another account belonging to ISIL.

Commenting on the calls on his Twitter account, Mutawa said: “My work has glorified Islam from the US to China for the past ten years. I really do not believe in ISIL and Qaeda…I don’t care about them”. Commenting on the issue, clergyman Hai Al-Hai said that capital punishment is the authority of the rulers represented by courts of law and even penalties should be authorized by the ruler. “Changing such a rule would lead to chaos,” he underlined, advising people who might get carried away with such calls to fight rumors and injustice.

The head of the Human Rights Basic Elements Society Dr Yousef Al-Sager stressed that such fatwas must be issued by courts because it is very dangerous to follow fatwas from such anonymous social media accounts. Some bloggers supported Mutawa and criticized such calls. “The man worked hard to promote Islam to the whole world and cannot be rewarded by such death threats,” said a blogger….

    Glorifying Islam through depictions of the human form is like winning a bacon-eating competition for Allah. As a naji kufr in their eyes, forgive me for finding this hilarious.

          A fiction writer/creator promoting a fictitious story line. No grasp of reality like many of his fellow ROP types.

          Also, the nazi swastika is the reverse image of the Buddhist swastika. Hence the nazis hijacked an Asian (proper Asian, not bbc’s “asian”) religious symbol. For a phd, he appears to be rather clueless.

          Just one small point, Umbra—the Swastika is adapted from the Teutonic “Hammer of Thor” symbol—it is actually unrelated to the Asian Swastika symbol.

          Uh, I don’t where you’re getting your information from; and it surprises me, since I sent you a photo of me In China, recently, with EXACTLY the “swastika” symbol, above a doorway of a Tibetan Buddhist temple in Chengdu, from 200 years ago.

          Philip, I should have written, “Just one small point, Umbra—the *Nazi* Swastika is adapted from the Teutonic “Hammer of Thor” symbol—it is actually unrelated to the Asian Swastika symbol.”

          I in no way meant to imply that the Asian Swastika symbol was not genuine—I’m well aware that it is.

          I’ve actually studied quite a bit of folklore—and I do remember the symbol from the photo—thanks.

          More:

          Hitler may have used a bastardized, phony Thor symbol, but that does not exclude the real possibility that he “borrowed” it from the Buddhists.
          ……………………………………..

          It is not impossible that Hitler intended some reference to Buddhism—or to Hinduism or Jainism, which also uses the symbol.

          But the image is found throughout Asia *and* Europe, where it dates back to antiquity. The symbol has had a range of meanings in different cultures and ages.

          There are images of Swastikas in Byzantine mosaics and in Armenian churches, where it is a symbol of God.

          And the image was used throughout the Germanic Iron Age as, scholars believe, a symbol of the god Thor.

          The author Guido von List, working in the late 19th and early 20th century, set the basis for much of Germany’s fascination with runes and the mythology of the Celtic and Germanic pre-Christian past.

          Given the Nazi’s preoccupation with and idealization of the Teutonic period, this seems the most likely direct reference for the Nazi Swastika.

    Is Allah “the best of deceivers” in the running for no. 100?
    The Saudi Grand Mufti already called this comic a work of the devil awhile ago
    (there are scholars and then there are SCHOLARS). It does give Allah’s attributes to mere creatures. Teenage creatures at that. There’s also some villain resembling Bin Laden and a lot of anodyne niceguyism with something supposedly Muslim about it (leading even Obama to give it a “shout out” for promoting the “tolerance of of Islam” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xULeq3JrAEk). Oh well, Twitter Fatwas. Guess there won’t be a Hollywood movie now.

    No wonder the Real Muslims consider it insulting to Islam. Where is “I will cast terror into the hearts of the unbelievers”? or “there has started between us and you, hostility and hatred forever”? or “slay the idolators wherever you find them”? Islam must be a horror comic, Al-Mutawa, as in “surely those who disbelieved in our Ayat we shall burn them in Fire. As often as their skins are roasted through, we shall change them for other skins that they may taste the punishment” (Q4:56) That’s a comic a Caliph could get behind! Or the sequel : “the punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His Apostle and strive to make mischief is…that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and feet should be cut off on opposite sides.” (Q5:33).

    Hurry, might not be too late to save your own skin, Nayef. But then again it might be.

      Al-Mutawa claims the comic was in developed for an animated children’s series in Hollywood but “Islamaphobic” internet blogs lied about him and said he was trying to teach shari’a law to children, postponing everything. “My comic-book series of young superheroes with powers based on values that Islam shares with humanity…the powers are secular and contain the collective wisdom of ancient civilisations. They are modelled on the 99 attributes that Muslims (and others) ascribe to God. The only religious connotation is in the title. ”

    99 names of Almighty Allah.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In truth: 99 names for satan; since allah is NOT the God of the Bible:

    Muslims believe that there is no other God besides Allah and that he is the God of the universe. They claim that not only is he their God, but that he is the God of the Jews, the Christians and everyone else. When examining the profile of the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and comparing it with Allah’s profile, there are a number of distinct differences between them that can only result in one conclusion: These profiles simply do not match! Allah is NOT the God of the Bible!

    The Islamic faith, through the teachings of Muhammad, asserts that Allah is God and attempt to place him within the confines of the Holy Scriptures. When the Bible contradicts their teachings, they allege that it is flawed, has been tampered with, and has many errors. They further claim that the Koran, through the teachings of their prophet Muhammad, corrects them. However, it has already been established that Muhammad was both a false prophet and teacher. Therefore, Islam’s allegations are unsupported, baseless and without merit.

    There are a number of major differences between the God of the Bible and Allah. This chapter will focus upon five reasons why they are not the same. According to the Holy Scriptures, the God of the Bible is the one true God while Allah is a false god.

    When two groups of Buddhists disagree about which is the “true” Buddhism….nothing much happens.

    When two Muslim groups disagree about which is the “true” Islam, how do they settle the dispute? Who is right? Of course true muslims must follow the “perfect example” of Mohammed who killed off or enslaved all those who disagreed with him. The group that can sustain the most violence for the longest time wins.

      Ali Sina recounts: “Muslims of Zarrar (a place close to Medina) had built a mosque. They invited him (Muhammad) to come and bless it. He told them that he would come after the raid of Tabuk. When he returned from Tabuk some malicious people told him that the Muslims of Zarrar had invented their own version of Islam and were not following the Islam of the Prophet. Muhammad did not try to investigate. He ordered his men to burn the mosque with the worshipers inside. Then he revealed a verse to justify his hideous crime: ‘and there are those who put up a mosque by way of mischief and infidelity to disunite the Believers..'(9:107).” –Muhammad & Muslims

      Killing bad Muslims and burning down mosques is perfectly sunnah.

    There has got to be a way of stopping the slowly creeping spread of Islam right across the Western world, I just wonder where its all going to lead, some kind of civil war? Recently we had some friends visiting from France, they told us a pretty nasty tale about Muslims putting together a contraption consisting of a diver’s sub-aqua tank, a 25 ltr plastic drum filled with lime sulphur spray from a garden centre and domestic bleach, some plastic pipes and plumbing fittings all linked up to a letter box of a white family in Paris who wouldn’t sell up and move out of the area that was predominantly Muslim, this was left over night with the air tank opened ever so slightly, on a trickle feed pushing the gas into the apartment. I’m not sure of the chemicals involved, but I believe it produces mustard gas when the two are mixed. Luckily, the family had just moved out due to the intimidation from our Muslim friends. Its got to be stopped, but our political leaders in Brussels, who caused all this mass Muslim immigration won’t lift a finger to stop this kind of terror in our own homes.

    Just what we need in the West: Press about Muslim “superheroes.”
    Muslim Americans are already going by the thousands to join IS Caliphate in the Middle East, and they’ll be returning as jihadists via their passports.

    The widespread news and online reporting about “the 99” further serves to entrench the notion that there are “moderate” (good) Muslims and “extremist/militant” (bad) Muslims. Instead, 1,200 years of Islamic history and current events show that the seemingly good Muslims as a collective group only behave that way before they conquer whoever it is (with an emphasis on Jews and Christians) in whatever nation they secretly lust to enact human wrath against, along with Sharia law. Not that there aren’t some Muslims authentically peace-loving (exceptions always prove the rule). But if so they are not following the Quran and are Muslims in name only who disregard their religion’s tenets. I fear for all non-Muslims all over the world. I pray for our protection under the guiding hand of the God of the Bible.

    We know from the opinion surveys that 65% of Muslims are not ‘moderate’, wanting strict, discriminatory Sharia and a caliphate.

    Now that the caliphate exists and now that it is issuing authoritative fatwas binding on all (including the Saudi royal family), the majority of Muslims have what they want…PURE ISLAM…THE NEW CALIPHATE.

    Behold it and take it’s measure. THAT is real Islam, not some FANTASY or CARTOON.

    What I find amazing is that the western media can continue saying that such groups are about rebelling against dictators, economic repression, etc.

    How many rebellions in history have taken the time out to worry about comic strips? Or waste resources murdering specific groups of people? Or fighting and taking over areas of another country?

    Imagine in 1776… American rebels proclaim they want to break away from Great Britain and immediately… a) murder large numbers of Catholics in the 13 colonies, b) march into Florida and Cuba and carve out an area from the Spanish, c) put out statements about wanting to support others in their fight against the Dutch, d) talk about a global state, and e) put out statements calling for the death of death of Jonathan Swift for publishing Gulliver’s Travels. Yet… the international press reports that they are fighting against the tyranny of imperialist Great Britain and folks keep sending money and arms to allied groups.

      Islamic oil money, I’ve seen reported, is mixed in with convolutions of ownership structure of corporate conglomerate media, which would explain why they don’t report the global Islamic threat. Also the non-Muslim conglomerate media owners may not be very good people in general, letting greed trump truth and not giving a damn about other people who don’t own a private jet.

      News media ownership has a huge effect on what reporters are allowed to report, how they can say it, even which ones get hired and fired (even though today’s free press fantasies remain from an era before corporate global oligarchs were the money behind the mainstream media). I have seen it from the inside as an advocate, but in the ’90’s before it got like it has today in the Obama era.

      Or maybe Satan has them in his thrall!

      The just-folks Joe-and-Jill American ethos is still to be too open and trusting in a world that does not deserve the trust. I’m praying that we collectively toughen up our American sensibilities and see who our real enemies are and the big stakes (our lives) they’re playing for — and that we stop the time-wasting skirmishing about the sideshows — before it’s too late for us.

    I’m a big science fiction/horror/fantasy fan… and this includes comic books. I have also worked for a decade as a children’s librarian. I have a “heads up” for folks about what I have been seeing.

    Comic books (and all its merchandising and other media representations) and children’s literature has been going through a lot of changes lately- more so than ever before. There has been a tidal wave of PC hitting the comic book and children’s literature industry… and Islam is riding this wave.

    First, I am a “multiple minority”- for starters I am disabled and American Indian. I am all for seeing different lives, plots, locations and characters in comics and kids’ books. And I have to defend both industries- which have been “diverse” for a long while… even though their detractors would lead one to believe both industries are bastions of big bad straight able-bodied whiteness.

    Well, not “diverse enough.” These genres are horrible as they do not reflect enough of the Islamic world.

    One children’s literary publication praised Kelly Cunnane and Hoda Hadadi for their new book Deep In The Sahara. Set in Mauritania… a little girl dreams of being able to wear the head to toe covering worn by other girls and women. She yearns for this and views it as being beautiful and important when this gets to happen.

    WTH??? How about a book about the millions of women who are raped, beaten, tortured, disfigured by acid attacks, thrown into prison and are MURDERED because they are not sharia complaint and don’t want to wear coverings?

    Also, this is a little girl character. It is so repulsive that the “motive” behind such coverings is the sexualization of females. Little girls in Mauritania where coverings so the muslim men won’t see them as “desirable.” Child rape and marriage is epidemic in the izlamsick world.

    And Mauritania? It is rampant for slavery… where black muslims and arab muslims capture, buy, own and SELL other blacks… many being Christians and Animists, and will sell them in Africa and Arab lands.

    I mention the slavery part… and how this book is set in a slave nation… because…

    There are plenty of other books about slavery mentioned in this publication, and are heavily promoted as being must reads. Guess what! They are all about American slavery… and other books about American racism… many books set in the pre-Civil Rights Era or during the CRE.

    I’m not against such history books and support them. Yet, it is so insane that books that only show “Racist America” are promoted (when slavery ended generations ago) and books about Islam and an Islamic nation where slavery is still practiced and a little girl desires to be covered from head to toe?

    Am I the only one disgusted by this?

    Children’s literature I assure you is about to go through a “politically correct” change as not seen before… and it will be a part of the Islamist goals of influencing the west.

    As for comic books? I am not surprised that “The 99” which on one hand is promoted by Islamists to spread their views is at the same time getting a fatwa against its creator.

    There was a time when comics actually had a balanced depiction of Muslims.

    DC comics portrayed a burqa clad muslim Iranian woman who gained amazing powers from an alien race to be a “New Guardian” (ie a super-being who will bring wonderful things to Earth). Well, this woman is killed in the comics by her fellow muslims who are offended by her new status.

    DC comics had the super hero “Serpah” who in one story in the shadow of Masada in Israel… save the lives of a bunch of Jewish and Christian children (tourists) from a band of terrorists about to machine gun them to death. This story also acknowledges Israel continual presence in the Middle East.

    Comico comics company had The Elementals, a super-team where one of the characters was the Jewish Becky (Fathom) Golden… whose brother was a member of the IDF. In a storyline set during the first Gulf War/Kuwait invasion… the IDF is portrayed IN A POSITIVE LIGHT and Saddam Hussein is shown to be a brutal horrible dictator.

    Marvel Comics… Contest of Champions shows an anti-Semitic super character Arabian Knight… who reluctantly cooperates with the Jewish Israeli super heroine “The Sabra.” Gee whiz an Arab muslim reluctantly goes along with a Jewish Israeli because deep down they know this is right… yet, they still are anti-Jewish.

    The UN FORCE, an independently published comic… featured two super heroes one a Muslim Egyptian and the other an Israeli Jew. The two get along reflecting on the Egypt-Israel peace treaty. Another Muslim super hero dislikes these two being friends. Well, there is a lot of real life situations like that.

    However, these comic, characters and storyline are years and in some cases DECADES ago. UN Force is no longer published.

    There are also heroes and villains who are Muslim (along with non-powered supporting characters)… who have appeared in comics, in years past.

    HOWEVER, even though showing “balanced” hero Muslims… comics IN THE PAST also were honest and showed Islamic brutality, Islamic war mongering, Islamic Jew-Hatred, Muslims about to commit atrocities… and SHOCK… Israel was at times portrayed as a “good guy.”

    Though in the past these comic companies had “good Muslims” they also showed the horror of Islam. They showed muslim extremism.

    This would NEVER happen now. Marvel Comics now has a Pakistani Muslim Ms. Marvel… one of the most popular female super heroines named reflective of the Marvel comics company is a Muslim. So… is Stan Lee the head of Marvel Comics (who is Jewish) going to get a Fatwa against him for the creation of Ms. Marvel?

    Comics have superhero Canadians, scientists, gays, Protestant Christians, blacks, Jews, Australian Aborigines, Eastern Orthodox Christians, Catholic clergy, school teachers, witches, Mormons, industrialists, South Africans, lesbians… and Muslims. Some are a combination of the above. They also have “bad guys” of similar backgrounds. However, look for fewer and fewer ANYTHING that depicts Islam in a “bad light” to be shown in the comics.

      No, you’re not the only only disgusted by this, Arjay.

      Here’s”Deep in the Sahara”:

      http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14823568-deep-in-the-sahara

      It’s being lauded by GoodReads and the Kirkus Review, both important sources of information—as you know—on children’s books for librarians, teachers, and parents. Kirkus Review had this to say:

      “Poetic language, attractive illustrations and a positive message about Islam, without any didacticism: a wonderful combination,” declares Kirkus Reviews in a starred review.

      “Lalla lives in the Muslim country of Mauritania, and more than anything, she wants to wear a malafa, the colorful cloth Mauritanian women, like her mama and big sister, wear to cover their heads and clothes in public. But it is not until Lalla realizes that a malafa is not just worn to show a woman’s beauty and mystery or to honor tradition—a malafa for faith—that Lalla’s mother agrees to slip a long cloth as blue as the ink in the Koran over Lalla’s head, under her arm, and round and round her body. Then together, they pray.”

      Repulsive.

      And given the stats, there’s an over 80% likelihood that “Lalla” has suffered FGM. I wonder if Kirkus is going to natter on about what a “poetic” subject *that* is?

      And read all the rave reviews from the witless dhimmis in the comments section—if you can do so without throwing up. *Ugh*.

      The worst is this twit:

      “While Americans look at veils worn in the middle East and Africa as oppressive to women, this book shows how women embrace the malafa for its representation of faith. A good book to increase cultural awareness in younger children.”

        ”And read all the rave reviews from the witless dhimmis in the comments section—if you can do so without throwing up. *Ugh*.”

        Yes, utterly repulsive. I left a review, as follows:

        ”I thought this ‘book’, was utterly revolting. Sexualising a little girl is positive ? What absolute evil rubbish. Mauretania is a vile place, where forced marriage, rape and FGM, wife beating and repression of women in every way, is rampant.

        This Kelly Cunnane is a witless, wicked fool. And her book is witless, wicked rubbish. ”

        I shall go back in a few days to see if it’s still there.

          Bravo, Mirren! But yes_they will probably remove your clear-eyed comments.

      Agreed, Arjay, totally disgusting and more evidence that the Islamic Jihad is coming for all of us. Now in the U.S. it’s mainly a battle for our minds, preparing the ground for later physical conquest because our country is geographically vast and our history formidable (before about 10 years ago) for freedom relative to other parts of the world.

      You’ve said a lot! Long comment coming in response.

      You have compiled excellent information, and excellently written, and my huge thanks because you’ve provided specifics to confirm that this area of children’s programming (library books!) is also under jihadist assault by stealth and manipulation of our freedoms against us — Taqiyya Trojan Horse for Muslims marauding as usual, in the West.

      Recently at a friend’s whose daughter is 11, I saw a new biography of Harriet Tubman which omits entirely the essential fact of Tubman being a devout Christian who credited her miraculous navigational abilities on starless nights to God and His guidance upon her prayer. This execrable excuse for a biography did not even mention Tubman’s nickname as “the Moses of her people,” which every other biography of her I’ve ever seen has mentioned. I’m guessing that Muslims and pro-Islamists are controlling a huge swath of children’s book contents behind the scenes so as to manipulate African-American youth — at the age when all children naturally tend toward rebellion — away from the Christian heritage of the civil rights movement and into the arms of imams at the local mosques. Next stop, Jihad Station.

      Now what do we do about it? It’s a big challenge. For me the solutions are in my God (not the misogynist, pedophile, pseudo-prophet Muhammad’s vile Allah aka Satan), but the God of the Bible including the redemptive love of Jesus Christ and the comfort and counsel and courage of the Holy Spirit. I use every opportunity to tell the truth to anyone who can receive it about Islam and jihad, as well as the hate-crimes military conquest manual that Muslims call the Quran.

      If speaking to a meek person, I meet them where they are. If someone feisty, we laugh and also gird ourselves up with mutual encouragement. I’ve left two churches that devolved into Chrislam at senior pastor or denominational levels. I’ve provided a brief for God and against Allah in writing in each situation to multiple people including women who one day may be able to face what I shared (with credible references) about the absolute peril of any Western women if the Caliphate and Sharia Law ever comes here as it is obviously planning to do. Muslims inflamed by their “religion” are so exceptionally cruel that no self-respecting person should ever want them to have even the smallest toehold in a culture, but Taqiyya Trojan Horse has been a skillful operation for Muslim Americans under C.A.I.R. and its affiliates.

      What else do I do? I struggle to even find a church that can avoid becoming apostate since Obama’s re-election (which seemed an American church turning point to Chrislam, maybe coincidentally, maybe about “interfaith” community program government funding) . Now I have to compromise some of what I prefer on non-essentials of the faith to find other Christians who understand Islam as inherently evil and will have no part in it. For example, 1John 2:22 (KJV) says, as written around 1950 years ago, that “He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.” Muhammad and every Caliph and Imam since him has expressly and by the Quran repeatedly denied the Father and the Son of the triune God of Christianity. And lusted to kill us in hatred of our God!

      It’s such mind-boggling evil to wrap our heads around about how murderous Islam is. But just look at the photos of IS troops — designed to be and look terrifying, black head-covering masks, hard rifles held high as if to bash a person when not shooting to kill. As much as I think Allah a ridiculous excuse for a deity, even if a very dangerous excuse, I would never want to kill anybody for believing in something so stupid and hateful. I only hope that they might convert, have a change of heart, but since that’s unlikely, I follow God’s guidance as closely as possible to stay alive and as far away from Muslims as possible, because I still have errands to do in this world.

      Something else I do …I have a pre-9/11 English version of the Quran (cost 50 cents at a thrift store) with some of the more heinous passages tagged by red tabs you can get at any office supply store in case someone is willing to pull and read one for easy reference of the tabbed representative horrible passages instructing for murder and torture.

      Also I pray a lot. I listen to the Holy Spirit’s guidance about where I might post blog comments and sometimes the experience of being seemingly blocked is information about stealth jihad’s covert censorship of our anti-hate-crimes-Islam voices on sites that are probably Muslim fronts. Other times my comments get posted and others reading might have occasion to open their minds if they’ve been programmed with “Islam is peace” balderdash as so commonly pitched virtually everywhere.

      Muslims will kill Christians over our religion of love under their “religion” {satanism} of “peace”{war}. I cannot be a Bible-believing Christian and accept Islam as anything but demonic, but my freedom of religion to say so in any public forum to reach large numbers of people is effectively trashed by an Islamofascist culture that pretends up is down, yes is no, war is peace, genocide is righteous. The public space of the American town square has been privatized virtually out of existence. The internet can be gamed behind the scenes or by shaming tactics. Even JW/Robert Spencer and others who have strong anti-jihad blogs are trashed in the online googled results of the “loonwatch” variety, and the fear of shame embedded in so many people will keep them away if they see negative labels with shaming words like “loon.” The shaming and stay-away tactics are of course deliberate. Paid by the word or zealots for jihad who volunteer, global Islamists include many civilian-soldiers operating to slant the overall import of the internet in the digital age on their behalf.

      Well, all of this to say we “get it” here, Arjay, and we appreciate you bringing more of the “it” of Islam’s horrific conquering tactics to the attention of us who love reading (and commenting!) If you’re feeling disgusted and horrified, you’re not alone. And if you trust the real God of the Bible, you’ll even be blessed with supernatural reserves that bring you a foretaste of eternal joy no matter how despicable are the jihadists. I’m sure that Allah/Satan does not win in the end and I would wish for everyone reading here an acceptance of Jesus Christ who was and is and ever more will be the victor ultimately over evil. (If you’re not a Christian experiencing the ineffable joy, then what I type must sound ridiculous. But if you have ever just wanted it to be true, if you’ve ever thought inventing a Savior to forgive all your sins and love you extravagantly would be a good idea even if it wasn’t real, then I pray you’ll open your heart to let Jesus in. In my experience, He comes when you want Him. This I share only from love; I’m not a pastor seeking a tithe, I don’t have a “donate here” online ministry, it’s all for free and because I care. Also and only because without Jesus Christ in my life, I’d be freaking out because Islam is coming, and Allah hates us with a passion.
