They quote a hadith in which Muhammad is depicted as saying “that you not leave an elevated grave without levelling it, nor an image without erasing it.” They are, then, acting in accord with his words when they commit these acts of savagery. Will “moderate” spokesmen in the West explain how they’re misunderstanding Muhammad here? Don’t count on it.
“Islamic State (ISIS) Destroys Christian Graves In Mosul,” MEMRI, April 16, 2015:
The following report is a complimentary offering from MEMRI’s Jihad and Terrorism Threat Monitor (JTTM). For JTTM subscription information, click here.
On April 16, 2015, the information office for the Islamic State (ISIS) in Ninawa Province, Iraq, published a series of photos titled “Levelling Graves and Erasing Polytheist Symbols.” The photos, which were posted on the Shomoukh Al-Islam jihadi forum, among other places, show ISIS members shattering gravestones with sledgehammers and defacing crosses carved into them. The photos are prefaced by the religious justification for ISIS’s actions – a hadith determining that any grave higher than ground level must be shattered and any images on it must be erased: “Ali bin Abi Taleb said to Al-Hayyaj Al-Asadi: ‘I am dispatching you with what the Prophet dispatched me: That you not leave an elevated grave without levelling it, nor an image without erasing it.'”
That’s from Jami` at-Tirmidhi 10.85.1049.
Holy Prophet APF says
So here we have the Perfect Man being invoked to justify the desecration of graves containing Infidel corpses. Nice.
But why not? This is a guy who laid in bed all day with a 6-yr old girl, who ordered contract murders, who supervised the mass murderers of several hundred men and boys in a single afternoon, who ran a protection racket, who burned a camp fire to put a hole in the thorax of a man to get him to tell where gold was hidden.
This is a guy whose name is now the most popular first name for babies born in many parts of Europe. Mohammed. The perfect example whom Allah commands be emulated. The wonderful man whom the great Tim Russert himself referred to as “the Holy Prophet” on Sunday morning national TV.

Nice. These are such nice people. Israel should be proud to such nice neighbors as these. The UN wholeheartedly endorses these nice people and all that their Prophet stands for. Even the Pope endorses the one world government of the UN which loves these nice people.
Every Christian and Jewish grave in Israel and elsewhere would receive this same nice treatment from these nice people if Obama, Europe, and the UN have their way. All Islamic people everywhere must rejoice at this fine piece of work by these nice people under the guidance of their esteemed Prophet, Mohammed.

The major question is, why doesn’t the public know what we all know in here. Everything is right there in the Holy Ko-Ran as plain as day, and in the Hah-Death too. And the sacralized histories and the Sharia codes.
It is not a major research project to figure out what Islam is all about, yet it remains a deep mystery. Spencer has noted many times in here that much of this is the result of Islam being conferred the reserve status of religion, and he’s right. But there’s another factor at work, and that is the confluence of this awful and extremely dangerous belief system with another one, that being globo-socialism. The latter was brought upon us by Karl Marx, who irony of ironies was a Jew. Now we sit watching TV waiting for an ICBM to rain nukes down on Tel Aviv to wipe out millions of Jews.
The Moslems are fake victims now; we’ll be real ones when the time finally arrives. I think most Infidels think selling out the Jews will sate these animals, but that will only whet their appetite for more Infidel blood. Bad times are already here, but a much worse time is sure to come.

Alarmed, I have the same question. Many years with a late night flight, I found myself visiting with a major (non-MSM) TV news personality. I asked him that question and he thought it would take a major catastrophic event. We had that with 9/11 and we can see what happened. Washington blew it.
We obviously represent only a tiny slice of the population. Most of us here have trained ourselves to sort out the worst problems out there and keep track of them. There is nothing worse than Islam with 1400 years to prove it. More serious, is WMD’s in their hands.
it is not easy to break through with all the media buzz and if you do, it must resonate with a major portion of people or it drops to a low level of awareness. I have seen this happen. Plus the MSM is corrupt and sides with Islam.
My best guess is that our current overall population has not had to struggle much and their senses are shaped different than ours. Many are not smart enough or are lazy. Also they have so much media buzz all around them that they either ignore it or cannot sort it all out. Add corrupt politicians to this mix who react only to public perception, and I think we are in serious trouble, my friend, for the long run.
Islamic people are predators much like a snake. They carefully watch their prey with total patience and move only when the prey is distracted. They are sneaking up on us in plain sight, which these days is an easy thing to do. I remember the congressional candidate riding an elephant across the Rio Grande with a mariachi band playing and no one saw him or paid attention.
Spot On says
If it is any consolation for anyone, non-MSM media is now talking about ME Christians. Too little too late, I would say.

Maybe its time their Black Box was Erased ??
Joseph says
They can’t even let the dead rest in peace and we expect them to get along with the living???
Let me guess, O’ slimo and his #hitbag staff in the W.H. will say they were only “remodeling”
mariam rove says
As vile and as savages those dastards are ISIS is the best thing so far that has happened to advance our cause here. People are finally seeing true face Islam. M
Joseph says
@ mariam rove
Sadly only some people will see the truth. Others will deny it unto their dieing breath
Islam is like a gangrenous stinking limb, you have to cut it off and discard it to save the body. To ignore the putrid infection is to put the whole body at risk. The West is unfortunately covering up this mess with a towel, hoping that it will go away. Even with a towel(that the media and left) puts over this mess any SANE person will/should be able to smell the stink. I said sane person because those that ignore the problem I truly believe are mentally deficient.
Galen Muhammad says
Wow.
You made it more than obvious that you’re one of those who aim to, “….deny it unto their dieing breath“.
By the way….the correct spelling is “dying“, but that’s not the only thing you got dead wrong…..!
Joseph says
@ Galen Muhammad You said…
You made it more than obvious that you’re one of those who aim to, “….deny it unto their dieing breath“.
How do you get that from my statement??????????????
I say cut the limb off and throw it away. Islam is that stinking limb and so are you.
Islam= pain, suffering and death
Daniel says
I have seen if/when they didn’t completely ruin graves, they at least smashed all crosses or objects depicting religion other than islam.
Galen Muhammad says
ROFLOL
“The so-called Islamic State destroys Christian graves in Mosul, quotes Muhammad to support doing so“….? They’re the Pseudo Islamic State (#PISIS)!!
How can one quote Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) without the full quote in its proper context?! It’s actually UN-ISLAMIC to destroy the graves of anyone.
Robby “the lying Robot” Spencer is deceiving you all with his half-truths and partial, out-of-context quotes……as usual.
Jay Airahs says
The pseudo prophet Muhammad claimed Allah as an alibi to excuse his sordid life and that is the sad truth.
The hadith is for making mischief.
Since the Koran is full of so much hatred, the revelations were likely from Satan.
Carlos Danger says
Galen…..I don’t care what your book might say. I merely observe what people who claim to venerate it (and the moon god, and the diseased brigand who supposedly transcribed it) do.
Their actions speak for themselves. I am not a religious man, and am more concerned for the living than the dead….but so far as I can discern Mr. Spencer is a truth-teller, and You are a deceitful coprolite.
I do hope that someday you get what you deserve, and and that there will not be a virgin in the pile of dung you inherit.
Now scram.

Islam, the Religion of Destruction (TM) strikes again
Jay Airahs says
To think of all the trouble the military went to for OBL’s burial.
Time to unload a garbage trawler full of pork manure over Osama Bin Laden.
Jay Airahs says
PS
Lobsters are bottom feeders and sharks are scavengers too.
Both are haram, I believe.
OBL was likely turned into the poop of haram bottom scavengers.
