Muslims? How odd. Everyone knows that the Islamic State has absolutely nothing to do with Islam. So many misunderstanders of Islam are out there today — what programs do mosques and Islamic schools have in place to prevent all this misunderstanding of Islam? What? None? Now, why is that?
“Spain arrests eight suspected Islamist militants in dawn raid,” by Gustau Nacarino, Reuters, March 13, 2015:
(Reuters) – Eight suspected Islamist militants accused of planning attacks in Spain and recruiting fighters to send to Syria and Iraq were arrested in dawn raids across Spain on Friday, the Interior Ministry said in a statement.
The six men and two women were connected to the Islamic State militant group via one of their operatives who organized activity from Syria and Iraq, the ministry said.
All those arrested had Spanish nationality, and five were of Moroccan heritage.
“The group represented a serious and definite threat to national security,” the ministry said in a statement, adding that the network aimed to carry out attacks on the mainland.
The Spanish government has renewed its focus on Islamist militant activity since the attacks on French satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo in Paris in January in which gunmen killed 17 people.
Islamist militants killed nearly 200 people in March 2004 in an attack on a commuter train, setting off bombs hidden in rucksacks as the train drew in to Madrid’s main station.
Including Friday’s arrests, Spanish police have arrested 23 people linked to such activity so far this year, according to government data – more than half the total arrested in the whole of last year.
The arrests on Friday were made in Barcelona and Girona in the north east of Spain and Ciudad Real and Avila in the center, the ministry said.
The mother of one of those arrested, who gave her name as Maria, told Reuters heavily armed police had raided her house in the Catalan village of Piera at 4 a.m., herding members of the family into the dining room before arresting her 18-year-old son.
The mother of 11, a Spaniard converted to Islam who teaches Spanish and Catalan to Arab-speaking children in the basement of her house, said the police searched the house and removed the hard drives from computers.

Jeff says
Muslims have been saying that these aren’t Muslims at all, but Jews trying to give Islam a bad name.
Anna says
LOL they are Jews faking being Musims, Goodness, I did not realise there were so many Jews !) or Jews ” force” them to follow their Mohammad.?
You couldn’t make it up…except they do.!
WOW, what Muslims could not accomplish as easily centuries ago, they can today now we are living in the real ” dark ages ” of ignorance and superstition.
Seventh century here we come…coming soon…….to a town near you !
I despair
Lia Wissing says
Congratulations, Spain! You’re so quiet, but you’re doing your think. But then, you’ve been under muslim government once …
Núria says
Lia, I wish I could say you’re right, but unfortunately the overall picture is much more glum. I’m Spanish, and I can assure you that the most widespread attitude in this country is the typically do-gooder one: Spain doesn’t seem to have learned its history very well and, as a mother of 3, I can tell you that my children’s textbooks come with a totally sugar-coated version of the muslim conquest of the Peninsula, which is invariably presented as a blissful 800-year period which took Spain out of the dark ages and where all cultures and religion lived in peace. Nothing could be further from the truth, but the average Spaniard hasn’t got a clue.
Spain is a country of extremes – people are either very cultured, or utterly ignorant of the most basic things in life, let alone history. It’s also a country where English is studied from age 3, but never mastered, which obviously restricts the range of information sources available to the average Spaniard. As a result, most Spanish citizens are easily manipulated by mainstream media.
As I said in a previous comment in this same thread, Spain is repeating the same mistakes other European countries have made in the not-too-distant past. Problem is, this is unforgivable in view of past experience and – which is even worse – there will be no second chances now, as we’re fast approaching a point of no return.

ISLAM VS ISIS
PEOPLE MAKING SELF LAW/BID’A PROHIBITED/SELF MAKING HARAM/PERSONAL OPINION
28: 50. But if they answer you not (i.e. do not believe in your doctrine of Islâmic Monotheism, nor follow you), then know that they only follow their own lusts. And who is more astray than one who follows his own lusts, without guidance from Allâh? Verily! Allâh guides not the people who are Zâlimûn (wrong-doers, disobedient to Allâh, and polytheists).
38: 26. O Dâwûd (David)! Verily! We have placed you as a successor on earth, so judge you between men in truth (and justice) and follow not your desire for it will mislead you from the Path of Allâh. Verily! Those who wander astray from the Path of Allâh (shall) have a severe torment, because they forgot the Day of Reckoning.
45:18. Then We have put you (O Muhammad SAW) on a plain way of (Our) commandment [like the one which We commanded Our Messengers before you (i.e. legal ways and laws of the Islâmic Monotheism)]. So follow you that (Islâmic Monotheism and its laws), and follow not the desires of those who know not
ISLAM DOES NOT LIKE WAR
Bukhari :: Book 4 :: Volume 52 :: Hadith 269, 268
Narrated Jabir bin ‘Abdullah:
The Prophet said, “War is deceit.”
Bukhari :: Book 4 :: Volume 52 :: Hadith 267
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, “Khosrau will be ruined, and there will be no Khosrau after him, and Caesar will surely be ruined and there will be no Caesar after him, and you will spend their treasures in Allah’s Cause.” He called, “War is deceit’.
PROPHET(SA) TRIED TO STOPS KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE AS MUCH AS HE CAN POSSIBLE:
Muslim :: Book 19 : Hadith 4399
It has been narrated on the authority of Abdullah b. Muti’ who heard from his father and said: I heard the Holy Prophet (may peace be upon him) say on the day of the Conquest of Mecca: No Quraishite will be killed hound hand and foot from this day until the Day of judgment.
Muslim :: Book 7 : Hadith 3142
Abu Huraira, (Allah be pleased with him) reported. When Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, granted Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) victory over Mecca, he stood before people and praised and extolled Allah and then said:…………it (this territory) was not violable to anyone before me and it was made violable to me for an hour of a day, and it shall not be violable to anyone after me. So neither molest the game, nor weed out thorns from it. And it is not lawful for anyone to pick up a thing dropped but one who makes public announcement of it. And it a relative of anyone is killed he is entitled to opt for one of two things. Either he should be paid blood-money or he can take life as (a just retribution).
PROHIBIT KILLING WITH UNJUST:
3:21. Verily! Those who disbelieve in the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allah and kill the Prophets without right, and kill those men who order just dealings, announce to them a painful torment.
5: 32. Because of that We ordained for the Children of Israel that if anyone killed a person not in retaliation of murder, or (and) to spread mischief in the land – it would be as if he killed all mankind, and if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of all mankind. And indeed, there came to them Our Messengers with clear proofs, evidences, and signs, even then after that many of them continued to exceed the limits (e.g. by doing oppression unjustly and exceeding beyond the limits set by Allah by committing the major sins) in the land!.
KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE IS A SYMBOL OF IGNORANCE [WEAKENS OF RELIGIOUS KNOWLEDGE]:
Muslim :: Book 34 : Hadith 6458
Abu Huraira reported Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: (When) the time would draw close to the Last Hour, knowledge would be snatched away, turmoil would be rampant, miserliness would be put (in the hearts of the people) and therewould be much bloodshed. They said: What is al-harj? Thereupon he said: It is bloodshed.
Bukhari :: Book 9 :: Volume 88 :: Hadith 185
Narrated Abu Musa:
The Prophet said, “Near the establishment of the Hour there will be days during which (religious) knowledge will be taken away (vanish) and general ignorance will spread, and there will be Al-Harj in abundance, and Al-Harj means killing.”
Bukhari :: Book 1 :: Volume 3 :: Hadith 85
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, “(Religious) knowledge will be taken away (by the death of religious scholars) ignorance (in religion) and afflictions will appear; and Harj will increase.” It was asked, “What is Harj, O Allah’s Apostle?” He replied by beckoning with his hand indicating “killing.”
2:85. After this, it is you who kill one another and drive out a party of you from their homes, assist (their enemies) against them, in sin and transgression. And if they come to you as captives, you ransom them, although their expulsion was forbidden to you. Then do you believe in a part of the Scripture and reject the rest? Then what is the recompense of those who do so among you, except disgrace in the life of this world, and on the Day of Resurrection they shall be consigned to the most grievous torment. And Allah is not unaware of what you do.
2: 86. Those are they who have bought the life of this world at the price of the Hereafter. Their torment shall not be lightened nor shall they be helped.
5: 28. “If you do stretch your hand against me to kill me, I shall never stretch my hand against you to kill you, for I fear Allah; the Lord of the ‘Alamîn (mankind, jinns, and all that exists).”
Muslim :: Book 16 : Hadith 4158
‘Abdullah b. (Mas’ud) reported Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The first (thing) that will be decided among people on the Day of Judgment will pertain to bloodshed.
PROHIBIT KILLING NON MUSLIM WITH PEACE AGREEMENT:
8: 72. Verily, those who believed, and emigrated and strove hard and fought with their property and their lives in the Cause of Allah as well as those who gave (them) asylum and help, – these are (all) allies to one another. And as to those who believed but did not emigrate (to you O Muhammad SAW), you owe no duty of protection to them until they emigrate, but if they seek your help in religion, it is your duty to help them except against a people with whom you have a treaty of mutual alliance, and Allah is the All-Seer of what you do.
9: 4. Except those of the Mushrikûn with whom you have a treaty, and who have not subsequently failed you in aught, nor have supported anyone against you. So fulfill their treaty to them to the end of their term. Surely Allah loves Al- Mattaqûn
OPPRESSION AGAINST INNOCENT PEOPLE PROHIBITED:
7: 33. Say, “My Lord has only forbidden immoralities – what is apparent
of them and what is concealed – and sin, and oppression
Without right, and that you associate with Allah that for which
He has not sent down authority, and that you say about Allah that which you do not know.”
Muslim :: Book 32 : Hadith 6246
Abu Dharr reported Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying that Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, said: My servants, I have made oppression unlawful for Me and unlawful for you, so do not commit oppression against one another. My servants, all of you are liable to err except one whom I guide on the right path, so seek right guidance from Me so that I should direct you to the right path………
Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 43 :: Hadith 629
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah’s Apostle said, “Whoever has oppressed another person concerning his reputation or anything else, he should beg him to forgive him before the Day of Resurrection when there will be no money (to compensate for wrong deeds), but if he has good deeds, those good deeds will be taken from him according to his oppression which he has done, and if he has no good deeds, the sins of the oppressed person will be loaded on him.”
PUBLIC PEOPLE(MUSLIM/NON MUSLIM) BLOOD & PROPERTIES, WERE HONORS AND PROTECTED/SACRED LIKE MECCA:
4: 148. Allah does not like that the evil should be uttered in public except by him who has been wronged. And Allah is Ever All Hearer, All Knower.
17: 70. And indeed We have honoured the Children of Adam, and We have carried them on land and sea, and have provided them with At-Taiyibât (lawful good things), and have preferred them above many of those whom We have created with a marked preference.
Bukhari :: Book 1 :: Volume 3 :: Hadith 67,105
Narrated Abu Bakra:
The Prophet said. No doubt your blood, property, the sub-narrator Muhammad thought that Abu Bakra had also mentioned and your honor (chastity), are sacred to one another as is the sanctity of this day of yours in this month of yours. It is incumbent on those who are present to inform those who are absent.” (Muhammad the Subnarrator used to say, “Allah’s Apostle told the truth.”) The Prophet repeated twice: “No doubt! Haven’t I conveyed Allah’s message to you.
REVENGE IS PROHIBITED:
5: 8. O you who believe! Stand out firmly for Allah and be just witnesses and let not the enmity and hatred of others make you avoid justice. Be just: that is nearer to piety, and fear Allah. Verily, Allah is Well Acquainted with what you do.
Muslim :: Book 30 : Hadith 5756
‘A’isha reported that Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) never beat anyone with his hand, neither a woman nor a servant, but only, in the case when he had been fighting in the cause of Allah and he never took revenge for anything unless the things made inviolable by Allah were made violable; he then took revenge for Allah, the Exalted and Glorious.
Muslim :: Book 19 : Hadith 4399
It has been narrated on the authority of Abdullah b. Muti’ who heard from his father and said: I heard the Holy Prophet (may peace be upon him) say on the day of the Conquest of Mecca: No Quraishite will be killed hound hand and foot from this day until the Day of judgment.
PROTECTION OF NON MUSLIM ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR MUSLIM:
9: 6. And if anyone of the Mushrikûn (polytheists, idolaters, pagans, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah) seeks your protection then grant him protection, so that he may hear the Word of Allah (the Qur’ân), and then escort him to where he can be secure, that is because they are men who know not.
7. How can there be a covenant with Allah and with His Messenger for the Mushrikûn (polytheists, idolaters, pagans, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah) except those with whom you made a covenant near Al-Masjid-al-Harâm (at Makah)? So long, as they are true to you, stand you true to them. Verily, Allah loves Al-Muttaqûn
Dawud :: Book 19 : Hadith 2955
Narrated Umar ibn al-Khattab:
A son of Adi ibn Adi al-Kindi said that Umar ibn AbdulAziz wrote (to his governors): If anyone asks about the places where spoils (fay’) should be spent, that should be done in accordance with the decision made by Umar ibn al-Khattab (Allah be pleased with him). The believers considered him to be just, according to the saying of the Prophet (peace_be_upon_him): Allah has placed truth upon Umar’s tongue and heart. He fixed stipends for Muslims, and provided protection for the people of other religions by levying jizyah (poll-tax) on them, deducting no fifth from it, nor taking it as booty.
PUBLIC PEOPLE HAVE NO RIGHT TO PUNISH THE PEOPLE:
Muslim :: Book 1 : Hadith 173
It is narrated on the authority of Miqdad b. Aswad that he said. Messenger of Allah, you just see (here is a point): If I encountered a person amongst the infidels (in the battlefield) and he attacked me and struck me and cut off one of my hands with the sword. Then he (in order to protect himself from me) took shelter of a tree and said: I become Muslim for Allah’s sake. Messenger of Allah, can I kill him after he had uttered this? The Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) said: Do not kill him. I (the narrator) said: Messenger of Allah, he cut off my hand and uttered this after amputating it; should I then kill him? The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: Don’t kill him, for I you kill him, verily he would be in a position where you had been before killing him and verily you would be in a position where he had been before uttering (kalima).
FIGHTING BETWEEN SECT PROHIBITED:
8: 46. And obey Allâh and His Messenger, and do not dispute (with one another) lest you lose courage and your strength depart, and be patient. Surely, Allâh is with those who are As-Sâbirin (the patient ones, etc.).
Muslim :: Book 39 : Hadith 6752
Jabir reported: I heard Allah’s Apostle (may peace be upon him) as saying: Verily, the Satan has lost all hopes that the worshippers would ever worship (him) in the peninsula of Arabia, but he (is hopeful) that he would sow the seed of dissension amongst them.
Bukhari :: Book 6 :: Volume 60 :: Hadith 114
Narrated Said bin Jubair:
The people of Kufa disagreed (disputed) about the above Verse. So I went to Ibn Abbas and asked him about it. He said, “This Verse:– “And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell.” was revealed last of all (concerning premeditated murder) and nothing abrogated it.”
No fight with surrendered warrior:
Bukhari :: Book 5 :: Volume 59 :: Hadith 354
Narrated ‘Ubaidullah bin ‘Adi bin Al-Khiyar:
That Al-Miqdad bin ‘Amr Al-Kindi, who was an ally of Bani Zuhra and one of those who fought the battle of Badr together with Allah’s Apostle told him that he said to Allah’s Apostle, “Suppose I met one of the infidels and we fought, and he struck one of my hands with his sword and cut it off and then took refuge in a tree and said, “I surrender to Allah (i.e. I have become a Muslim),’ could I kill him, O Allah’s Apostle, after he had said this?” Allah’s Apostle said, “You should not kill him.” Al-Miqdad said, “O Allah’s Apostle! But he had cut off one of my two hands, and then he had uttered those words?” Allah’s Apostle replied, “You should not kill him, for if you kill him, he would be in your position where you had been before killing him, and you would be in his position where he had been before uttering those words.”
Dawud :: Book 14 : Hadith 2639
Narrated Jarir ibn Abdullah:
The Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) sent an expedition to Khath’am. Some people sought protection by having recourse to prostration, and were hastily killed. When the Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) heard that, he ordered half the blood-wit to be paid for them, saying: I am not responsible for any Muslim who stays among polytheists.
Bukhari :: Book 9 :: Volume 83 :: Hadith 5,11
Muslim :: Book 1 : Hadith 173,176 ,178
Muslim :: Book 19 : Hadith 4361
Dawud :: Book 14 : Hadith 2646
PROPHET SA ORDERED : ISLAM PROHIBITED EVEN KILLING SURRENDER WARRIOR,I DON’T UNDERSTAND HOW CAN JUSTIFY KILLING JOURNALIST BEING ISLAMIC?

Who was the alleged prophet who claimed that the devil tricked him into worshipping pagan spirits or was that the three semi-beautiful daughters of Allah?
Muhammad also claimed that Allah gave him a revelation to marry his son in law’s beautiful wife but resisted Allah’s wishes because he was aw-shucks, much too modest to do such a thing until he finally came to the conclusion that he must not disobey ‘Allah’s’ wishes (wink, wink) and decided to boink away his son-in law’s wife all night and day in order to please his golly-gee sock puppet Allah who somehow manages to grant Muhammad’s every wish. You can bet that the lecherous glutton Muhammad would find a way to pray at least 50 times a day.
