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

Islamic State: 80 lashes for wearing a soccer team jersey; Madonna’s music “anti-Islamic”

Apr 26, 2015 6:56 am By Robert Spencer

Soccer-and-ramadan“Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious.” — Ayatollah Khomeini

“IS militants punish citizens with 80 lashes if seen wearing football team jerseys,” Free Press Journal, April 25, 2015:

London : Islamic State (IS) militants have banned people from wearing the jerseys of football teams like Manchester United, Barcelona, Real Madrid and AC Milan as it represents idol worship.The citizens are punished with 80 lashes if they are seen breaking the rules in public.

According to the Daily Star, Madonna’s music was also outlawed because her music was considered “anti-Islamic” and her name “haram” as it is deemed a Christian term for the Virgin Mary. The extremists have begun handing out leaflets in its de facto capital of Raqqa in northern Syria warning locals about the crackdown.

    Put this in context. The issue is the club badges which often have a “cross” symbol (which Jihadists always associated with Christianity) or a animal motif (such as a lion). All of which is haram. A more interesting question is will any of these clubs change their badges and symbols to attract muslim money?

      Baucent …I think the muhammadans are a step ahead of you concerns.

      A few years ago it was reported that a muhammadan policeman in the English midlands refused to wear the police badge because it had a crown on it (kuffar rule) and on top of the crown was a cross. It has been claimed that the dhimmi authorities designed a special insignia for him and other muhammadan coppers.

      I am waiting for the same thing to happen in Australia. On many official buildings, etc. the royal coat of arms includes images – lion and unicorn – and is topped by the crown and cross. Already some of the cross-haters have expressed concerns that the national flag has the union flag with crosses as well as the Southern Cross. I am waiting.

      Already the peasant scum refuse to stand when the magistrate or judge enters a court room. You can imagine the performance when they discovered that they not only had to stand at the entry of an infidel judge or magistrate, but sometimes the presiding judge was a woman. Several dhimmi and magistrates have resolved the issue by bringing muhammadan criminals into the court room after the court has settled so the koran brandishing crims do not have to stand.

      It is ironic that the football team most patronized by younger muhammadan louts in southern Sydney is nicknamed the “Bull Dogs” and guess what is the insignia on their supporters jerseys, flags, car decorations, etc. The muhammadan “crisis of conscience” has to come sooner of later. I am waiting to see how the club authorities deal with that one.

        Also, extreme Muslims should stop using computers and calculators, and stop doing maths period, since there is a cross symbol (+) on virtually all computers, and in math/algebra, etc.

        I read somewhere that a Wahabist cleric said that tomatoes were haram, since an inside cross appears if you cut them a certain way? You can’t make this stuff up, as others have said.

        Jews, and as far as I know, Hindus; Buddhists, Hare Krishna, and other faiths don’t have crosses (and / or animals) in their religious symbols, However, i cannot recall hearing of any of these faith’s adherents complaining.

        As anyone?

    Flogging and bondage are popular fetishes in Islam.

    Every Muslim should say the following four words quickly upon waking.

    ICE
    BANK
    MICE
    ELF

    That’s a picture of the Pakistani cricket team. All that prayer has not done them any good. They still keep losing!

      And this is a picture of a fellow who keeps losing as well. http://www.americanthinker.com/images/bucket/2015-04/194444_5_.jpg
      Maybe other folks are better at praying?

    \\ According to the Daily Star, Madonna’s music was also outlawed because her music was considered “anti-Islamic”\\

    Should that surprise us? She’s always looking for a new deity to offend.

    \\and her name “haram” as it is deemed a Christian term for the Virgin Mary. \\

    Which is odd, because the Virgin Mary is mentioned in the Coran more than in the Bible.

      ”Should that surprise us? She’s always looking for a new deity to offend.”

      Whatever you may think of Madonna, she **passes the Israel test**.

      She performed in Israel in 2009, and 2012.

        I never thought I’d agree with the islamic state. Madonna’s music if you can call it that is an offense against creation itself.

        • John says

          Apr 27, 2015 at 7:49 am

          Please explain your idiotic statement that Madonna’s music is ‘an offence against creation itself.’ That statement is so facile that u must be a Muslim yourself.

        • Oliver says

          One’s likes and dislikes in music ( and art) ( and many other areas of life) are one’s. If one doesn’t like a particular singer/musician, etc– DON’T LISTEN TO THAT PERFORMER.

          But, do not stop others from doing so.

    Want to see Satan’s view of humor, fun, joy, and enjoyment of life?:

    “Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious.” — Ayatollah Khomeini

    Islam is indeed a joyless religion, determined not only to rob enjoyment of life from non-Muslims, but also from the followers of Islam as well. This is one of the reasons that Muslim men are so often photographed looking angry, outraged, and generally hate-filled (unless they are engaging in the deceptive practices of Taquiyya, trying to paint Islam as a religion of peace).

    One goal of Satan is to rob mankind of real love, joy, and peace. These are three of the things that Christ came to restore to fallen man. The differences between the triune God of the Bible (the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit), and the false Babylonian god Allah (simply a mask for Satan himself).

    There is no common ground between the one true God and with Allah…none at all.

      Muhammad (PERV)

      Muslim men are so serious they will likely not appreciate the full humor in the PERV attribution to Muhammad

    I recomment theprophetofdoom.net website, written by a christian. The author writes a Bio,of Muhammeds life, and includes what Quran verses were (supposedly) revealed at what time. And the book and website of the same name ” It’s All About Muhammed ” by F.W.Burleigh. He also writes an scathing Biomof Muhammed. Read most anything about Muhammeds life from the Hadiths ( that document the most devastating info about Muhammed, straight from people who knew him) to some ore recent works and it is so patently obvious that Muhammed had temporal Lobe epilepsy ( caused the flashes, imagined coices, frothing atvthe mouth etc) and he was abused, neglected and poor as a child, these things caused him to become a pychopath and he totally make up every word in the Quran that he didnt steal fro other peoples ( Christians and Jewish apocryphal stories, Some Jewish diatary laws etc)
    Muhammed had a pathological hatred of and killed people that wrote a poem that mocked him and his ” religion” that said anything against him, that denied that was was a ” prophet”, that rightfully called him “mad” or possed byJinn( demons/devils)…..Muhammed stood up in his mosque one day and said who will rid me of the daughter of Marwan?” A man stood up and said, I cant see very well but I can domit. This man at night crept into the room where this woman ( who recited poetry against and mocking Muhammed, as was traditional in that culture when someone wanted to say something about someone)
    The assasian saw she had 5 children, the youngest, a newborn, was sleeping cuddled on the womans chest. The assasian moved this baby, then took a knife and stabbed it down into the womans chest as hard as he could, leaving the children to wake up and discover their mother murdered as they slept.
    This is the kind of man Muslims say is the perfect example of an man and whose example should be followed in everything possible.
    Go read this for yourselves I am not lieing or making this up. It is readily available, a lot online.

    Muslims seem to substitute rage, feeling offended and mob violence for more ordinary kinds of fun. Well, anger _is_ energizing…

  8. Sam says

    Apr 26, 2015 at 5:38 pm

    Since there is no truth and logic in this cult, they can come up with anything to kill themselves and us anytime, anywhere.

    What a stupid, empty, evil religion of peace! If anyone says he is a Muslim, he is stupid or empty in head or evil. Just stay away whatever the case may be.

    If Mohammed had ordered at least 75% of male babies slaughtered, then his family plan would have eliminated all the sex-crazed bachelors murdering, enslaving and raping their way throughout the history of Islam.

    Although, they would still be inbred.
