Before you break out the champagne, declare the jihad over and start singing John Lennon songs, remember that El Tayyeb when he said this was probably keeping his fingers crossed behind his back. He has shown himself over the years to be anything but a preacher of peace, cooperation and mercy: he has justified anti-Semitism on Qur’anic grounds; called for the Islamic State murderers of the Jordanian pilot to be crucified or have their hands and feet amputated on opposite sides (as per the penalty in Qur’an 5:33 for those who make war against Allah and his messenger or spread “mischief” in the land); and broken off “dialogue” with the Vatican after Pope Benedict XVI dared to criticize the jihad massacre of 21 Christians in Alexandria on New Year’s Eve 2011. Al-Azhar was also revealed to be offering free copies of a book that called for the slaughter of Christians and other Infidels.
“Egypt: Islam Religion of Peace, Cooperation, Mercy,” AllAfrica.com, September 9, 2015:
Al Azhar Grand Imam Ahmed El Tayyeb asserted that Islam is the religion of peace, cooperation and mercy.
El Tayyeb said that Islam believes in freedom of expression and human rights, and recognizes the rights of all human beings.
This came Tuesday during El Tayyeb’s meeting with Italian Senate’s Foreign Policy Commission Pier Ferdinando Casini and his accompanying delegation.
El Tayyeb voiced appreciation to the Italian government and people for siding with the nation against terrorism.
The western world should strictly handle international terrorist issue, El Tayyeb added.
El Tayyeb said that Al Azhar strategy in facing terrorism is based on maintaining the social relations via establishing the Egyptian Family House which aims at eradicating any division among Egyptians….
That will fix things right up.

If you want a meticulously cited, superb refutation of this bullwash slingin’ frat boy, go to David Wood’s blog, www (dot) answeringmuslims (dot) com and find “Three Stages of Jihad”.
It runs about 28 minutes, but worth undistracted attention by you and everyone you know who is still clueless. For another of his “educational” items, watch “The Jihad Triangle” — a brief 4:57.
SHARE THAT WITH EVERYONE WHO STILL ASKS “Gee, if Islam is violent, why are there so many peaceful Muslims ?”

Even just reading this smarm-artist’s pious words, I wanted to cross my fingers …

Talking about fingers, I cannot help noticing that in most photos of these islamic ‘authority figures’ (self-appointed or otherwise), the right index finger is seen extended, wagging or pointing, rather like a lot of idiotic self-important politicians, over-bearing parents, headmasters and matrons, as if by some divine authority we ignorant kuffar are all being lectured or told off. Apart from being very rude to point, it really is irritatingly predictable, and, together with the smug, self-satisfied smirk on the face that seems to go with ‘the finger’, very, very, very annoying indeed. Now, I believe I’m quite a restrained, law-abiding sort of person, but if I was stuck in a room for too long with one of these characters, with all the rubbish they speak, the smirks, the wagging fingers………..
Lia Wissing says
Perhaps you can help me, jihad3tracker: I’m looking for another David Woods video in which he begins by explaining how absolutely clear allah’s words are, but I have no title for it & cannot find it again. The video you reference is very, very good.
Enfant Terrible says
Thanks for identifying Wood’s blog and video – very relevant and useful.

The point is that absolutely none Mohammedan (Muslim) believes those lies which he said. Why he did say that? Fore the sole consumption of leftist media in the west, plus usual useful idiots. Surprises me not: War is deceit and taqiyya is the rule of the day. As long as it works (look around you to confirm that!) it will be used in perpetuity. I wonder: Almost no one believed in commie propaganda, but it is so easy to fool so many people in the west!

“Islam is the religion of peace, cooperation and mercy”, asterisk – see footnote. And the footnote reads “only among muslims, and limited to muslims of the right sect and deemed to be muslim enough”

BAREFACED LIES !!!

The rude finger of Islam
Attitude detector
I once held up a finger in the same fashion when making a slightly contentious (non-Islam) point with a supposedly moderate (in demeanor) Muslim from Morocco.
It seems that non-Muslims are not allowed to use that finger gesture with Muslims.
Nadia Nageeb says
Ahmed El Tayyeb, is biggest ” ISIS” admirer in the world. Until this moment he is refusing to condemn ISIS for anything they do, saying ISIS are Muslims people, and they are not (None Believers). He is the most F. Muslim fanatic ever came to this position in all Egypt’s history …
Jaladhi says
Oh, oh, now the chief liar f Islam speaks and says Islam is religion of peace!!. Hmm.. I guess he forgot to tell all those murderous Muslims to stop – since Islam is religion of peace!!
He also said:El Tayyeb said that “Islam believes in freedom of expression and human rights, and recognizes the rights of all human beings.”
Lies and more lies that’s how Islam survives the scrutiny of dumb infidels!!
Linda says
it’s called taqiah!!!!

The sad fact is that you cannot trust anything a Muslim says about Islam, especially one in power. If you tell your younger brother you are going to Joe’s house, but you lied. When your parents ask him where you went and he says “he went to Joe’s house” did he tell a lie? Or did he repeat what he believed to be true, even though it was false. Most Muslims don’t speak Arabic, they believe what the imam tells them. Most muslims are also illiterate, so they have no way to “verify” anything imam says.
Imams like this are depraved and desperate to preserve their power – if their followers knew the real truth they would leave Islam – keep the masses ignorant and you can have mastery over them.
Muslims believe Arabic is the Devine language of their god, Allah. and Allah does not hear prayers in other languages ( tells you right there Allah is not as powerful as Jesus ).
Then if Arabic IS the language of God, why is Arabic so lacking in words that foreign words need to be borrowed? So if humans can coin Arabic words, what does that tell you about where Arabic came from? even modern Arabic script did not exist in Muhammad’s time, so who decided to change Allah’s language?
There is no “p” sound in Arabic, p as in “Palestinian” Palestine is a name given that region by Romans.
Muslims are taught not to ask questions and not to think critically. All goes back to imams that lie and deceive people.
If I were crazy, and I’m not, I’d rig a timer to a laser pointer and put it in a small pvc pipe ( reduce detection angle) it would have a cross Pattern, aim it at mosque from a hill far away, have it turns on at night for several minutes, every few weeks or months randomly while I’m at the pub. It’s one of those cathartic thoughts in the let’s not and say we did Realm.

The Islam what he says is of this Planet. On the Earth, Till Now, it is a Religion OF Peace when the Strength of the Community is Not Enough to Subjugate Kafirs; as soon as it get the Strength to Subjugate then it is Religion OFF Peace. Both can be seen.
In the 2nd Stage Pieces of Human Bodies wherever the Subjugation is in Progress or Complete.
Gee says
So much mercy that almost NONE of the Muslim regimes will allow any MUSLIM refugees refuge. That is some compassion and mercy. Their cooperation is limited to funding terrorism and inciting violence. The funds for aiding victims of violence is just about zero.
Islam is a fascist, xenophobic, supremacist, genocidal cult

“Al Azhar Grand Imam Ahmed El Tayyeb asserted that Islam is the religion of peace, cooperation and mercy….”
But on the other hand, he also approved of every doctrine preached by ISIS caliph Al Baghdadi.
Islam has TWO views on everything: 1) a lenient view and 2) a domineering view. It stems from there being a Meccan (lenient) Koran and a Medinan (harsh) Koran.
Muslims love dissembling their two-faces and leaving the dirty kafirs confused.
