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

Egypt’s Mufti adviser: Islamic State’s terror has nothing to do with Islam

Aug 29, 2014 8:41 am By Robert Spencer

ISISIt would be refreshing if even one of those who are condemning the Islamic State would explain how this misunderstanding of Islam spread to so many people all over the world. But they never will do so, and the mainstream media will never ask them to.

“Daesh terrorist acts have no link with Islam: Mufti adviser,” State Information Service, August 29, 2014:

An Adviser to Egypt’s Mufi said on Thursday that “Daesh” terrorist acts have no link to Islam.

During an interview with a France-owned TV channel, Ibrahim Negm said Darul Iftaa (House of Religious Opinion) launched an international campaign to urge the foreign media to use the term “Qaeda Separatists in Iraq and Syria (QSIS)” instead of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS).

Negm said an English website was created as well to respond to the claims of this terrorist group.

    The Mufti doth protest too much.

    We all know, Islam has nothing to do with Islam. They’re preposterous.

      Indeed my friend. The Quran has nothing to do with Islam. The sayings of Muhammad collected in the ahadith have nothing to do with Islam. The true peaceful teachings of Islam are known by Ayatollah Cameron, Mullah Obama, and Mufti McCain, the true ulama preaching the Sunnah.

        That would be funnier if it wasn’t such a depressingly accurate picture of where we are today with our leaders in the west.

      ISIS – Islamic State. Obama says ISIS has nothing to do with Islam too!

    When a group calls itself something, then the media must call it by the name it calls itself — or the readers/viewer of the media won’t really know be able to identify it properly.

    Oh…maybe that’s why there’s this campaign of disinformation for the kufar foreign press…

    A hardline, hardcore Islamic group calling itself Islamic is rather inconvenient for the disinformation arm of world wide jihad. What was that word for Islamic lying to protect/advance Islam, again? I forget. Oh, yeah — taqiyya.

    Strange that the Obama regime hasn’t come up with a politically correct spin on a name for them, too. But of course, as Obama said a couple of months ago,the world is safer and “less violent” than it has ever been. So his vacation was more pressing.

    “..the well respected Egyptian Lawyer and muslim think tank , ahmad abdu maher started the war against al azhar..”

    You’re right, many educated egyptians are starting to ask tough questions about Islam. And THAT is good. But after a while, they’ll come to realize that Muslim scholars have NO ANSWERS. That’s when Islam will fall apart.

    Par for the course—they’re not outraged because their fellow Muslims are committing horrendous atrocities. They’re outraged because the atrocities might reflect badly on Islam, and might potentially hinder the Islamic quest for total supremacy over all.

      For more years than I’ve been alive, I’m 54, there has been Jihad in the middle east… Why is that. The only conclusion I can be drawn to is the Religion these nuts profess to be defending does not know how to raise our properly educate or a simulate it’s youth into a peaceful world.
      Give the peaceful people of the region a month to leave an then nuke the place… sort it out later.

    Of course not it is those horrible Jews and Christians to blame!

    If we believe all the apologists for Islam
    then Islam has nothing to do with Islam.

    Perfect Islamic logic.

    I suppose the Islamic State is none other than Jewish then? As is often the case with things they don’t agree with it must always be those evil Jews behind it all.

    Unfortunately, those words could have come from Cameron or Obama or any of 1,200 politicians in the UK and the US.

    I can…it’s a combination of a lousy education and a massive inferiority complex.
