Pakistan: Muslim mob chases Christians from homes, demanding they convert to Islam

May 13, 2016 9:09 am By Robert Spencer

Not that this has anything to do with, uh…this 1,000-strong mob was probably all affected by mental illness — yeah, that’s it. Mental illness.

Man burning cross

“Muslim lynch mob ‘chases Christians from homes’ demanding they convert to Islam,” by Nick Gutteridge, Express, May 13, 2016:

CHRISTIANS in Pakistan have been driven from their homes by a lynch mob of Muslim extremists after Imams issued a fatwa against one of their number over a Facebook video that appeared on his news feed.

The small community of Christians in a remote village were forced to run for their lives after a crowdof [sic] more than 1000 people gathered outside their homes and demanded they convert to Islam.

Campaigners say three quarters of the 300-strong population have now had to flee and are starving in the countryside without food or water, adding that they are only alive at all thanks to the intervention of riot police.

Meanwhile an Islamic death sentence decree known as a fatwa has been issued against the young man at the centre of the storm, with Imams ordering that he be brought before them and burnt alive for insulting the Koran.

Tensions first boiled over after a Muslim man accused his Christian friend, who worked as a hospital cleaner, of insulting the Prophet Mohammed as the pair scrolled through Facebook together at work on April 15.

A video, apparently posted by a prominent foreign politician, then autoplayed on the Christian man’s news feed, sending his Muslim friend into a fit of hysteria.

The situation was exacerbated by the fact that the Christian man, a 25-year-old called Imran Masih, had just told his best pal that he had fallen in love with a Muslim girl.

    FORCED CONVERSION NOT PART OF ISLAM:

    2:256 Let there be no compulsion in religion: Truth stands out clear from error.
    2: 272. Not upon you (Muhammad SAW) is their guidance, but Allah guides whom He wills. And whatever you spend in good, it is for yourselves, when you spend not except seeking Allah’s Countenance. And whatever you spend in good, it will be repaid to you in full, and you shall not be wronged.
    4:28 “If then they turn away, We have not sent thee as a guard
    over them. Thy duty is but to convey (the message).
    5: 92. And obey Allah and the Messenger (Muhammad SAW), and beware (of even coming near to drinking or gambling or Al¬Ansâb, or Al¬Azlâm, etc.) and fear Allah. Then if you turn away, you should know that it is Our Messenger’s duty to convey (the Message) in the clearest way.
    6: 48. And We send not the Messengers but as givers of glad tidings and as warners. So whosoever believes and does righteous good deeds, upon such shall come no fear, nor shall they grieve.

    6: 66. But your people (O Muhammad SAW) have denied it (the Qur’ân) though it is the truth. Say: “I am not responsible for your affairs.”
    10: 99. And had your Lord willed, those on earth would have believed, all of them together. So, will you (O Muhammad SAW) then compel mankind, until they become believers.

      Those were abrogated verses, Allah changed his mind. Proof of that is open declaration in the Koran that Allah could do so, and this doing so makes up much of the Koran. “A little learning is a dangerous thing … ” Alexander Pope

      Sham, you and the new mayor of London need to make it a priority to travel to Pakistan and teach the people living there the correct interpretation of the Quran. This imam who is perverting Islam should be first on your list of those you set straight. I am sure everyone over there will greatly appreciate your help in pointing out their errors them.

        After I posted my comment above I ran across a story from NBC news about how Sadiq Khan wants to educate Donald Trump about Islam. So to you specifically, Mr. Khan, I would ask that you please also educate these poor, ignorant, misguided Muslims in Pakistan. It’s not just one imam over there who is spreading falsehoods about Islam; there are many doing so. This is very serious indeed and is an extremely nasty blot on the image of Islam. I think your expertise in the faith, Mr. Khan, is much more urgently needed in Pakistan than it is in America. So please, do not worry about us in the United States. We are okay for now. American citizens are not being driven from their homes because of their religion and left to die of thirst and hunger as is happening in Pakistan. The people of Pakistan … ALL the people of Pakistan … need your help and knowledge of Islam much more urgently than we do in the U.S. The people of Pakistan, England and the entire world are watching and waiting to see how you reveal the “true” face of Islam. I am sure you will be guided by the example set by Muhammad in all that you do. Thank you in advance.

        Here is the link to the NBC news story:

          Pakistanis pride themselves as the best defender of Islam in the world and they are practicing the real Islam which Sadiq Khan and other delusional and deceitful Muslims say isn’t real Islam. There is always a qualifier whenever a Muslim speaks – he can never say anything truthfully without any qualifier. Hypocrites and liars they are!

          Mohammad spoke with the FORK TONGUE under the guidance of DEMONIC SPIRIT.The Qur’an is the evidence of that. It is the inspired word of Mohammad .Only a Brain Washed person can accept it as a revealed word of true GOD OF ABRAHAM,ISAAC and JACOB. Mohammad suffered from a number of mental illnesses resulting from severe EPILEPSY . It was his first elderly wife Khadija who put the Idea in his sick mind that he was a prophet of Allah-the pagan god of Arabs. He was never a MONOTHEIST but in fact was MONO PAGAN DEIST as Allah was already worshipped by PAGAN ARABS in MECCA where his fore fathers were the custodians of KAABA which housed 360+ IDOLS and Allah was the on the top of the list . By the way,according to Qur’an Allah can not have a ‘SON’ but three daughter Al Uzza,Allat ansMannat.Mohammad was quite good at making up verses and distorting the Biblical stories for deceiving his ignorant followers.

      So, Sham, you’re telling us that these mobsters aren’t Muslims? Hey, they are your Ummah, not ours. Go tell them that their notion of conversion, jizya, or death isn’t Islamic because you can’t accept that reality. The true reality of Islam is openly displayed where Islam rules.

      You sucker some kid who doesn’t have the experience and wisdom to recite the Shahada, then later he finds out that if he leaves Islam he should be killed.

      That is the worst kind of compulsion – the implied withdrawal of love for not submitting. This is Ferengi Love – “expoitation begins at home.”

    • mortimer says

      May 13, 2016 at 3:27 pm

      Sham is wrong. Forcible conversion is normative Sunna and normative Islam.

      “In November 2015, the Pakistani Ministry of Religious Affairs and the Council of Islamic Ideology opposed a law on “forced conversion”, sparking dismay and protests among Pakistani Hindus and Christians.”

      No less than the ‘Pakistani Ministry of Religious Affairs and the Council of Islamic Ideology’ refused to protect vulnerable Hindus and Christians.

      This is TACIT APPROVAL OF FORCIBLE CONVERSION…thus putting the lie to the claim that Islam does not allow forcible conversion.

      Mohammed forcibly converted people in the hadiths, therefore forcible conversion is Sunna and normative Islam, rather than an aberration.

      • Jaladhi says

        May 13, 2016 at 4:51 pm

        Sham is practicing the usual Islamic taqiyya/kitman. Muslims cannot survive any argument without resorting to taqiyya. Taqiyya is more “respectable” religiously codified word for plain “lying”. LOL…

      May 13, 2016 at 7:35 pm

      Death for blasphemy IS part of Islam, which the Christian at the center of this is accused of:

      “Tensions first boiled over after a Muslim man accused his Christian friend, who worked as a hospital cleaner, of insulting the Prophet Mohammed as the pair scrolled through Facebook together at work on April 15.”

      You can find a 4 part translation of the Ash-Shifa of Qadi ‘Iyad supporting this judgement starting here:

      http://www.masud.co.uk/ISLAM/misc/alshifa/pt4ch1sec1.htm

      And when the mob threaten the entire Christian community for the crime of one against Muhammad’s honor, that too is in accord with Shari’ah, since there need be only one subject of the dhimmah to break the contract in that way for the pact to be considered null for all, as one can see from this passage from Reliance of the Traveller:

      “O11.10

      The agreement is also violated…if the state has stipulated that any of the following things break it, and one of the subjects does so anyway…namely, if one of the subject people:

      (5) or mentions something impermissible about Allah, the Prophet….or Islam.”

      And since, being on breech of contract, the Christians can no longer avail themselves the exception made for the People of the Book in 9:29 if the Muslim mob at that point offers the Christians the choice of conversion or death which 9:5, what is so un-Islamic about that?

      All ‘aid’ from ALL non-Muslim western countries to *any* Muslim entities – and that includes not only Pakistan but Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Turkey, Indonesia, etc, etc etc, not forgetting the so-called “‘Palestinian’ Authority” should be cut off.

      THINK of the money we’d all save!

      America is going broke. So: it would make excellent economic sense to NOT pay Pakistan – or, for that matter, Turkey or Indonesia or the ‘Palestinians’ or any of the rest of the horrid boiling – any more jizya/ ‘tribute’ money. Not one more red cent. Cut ’em off!

      STOP THE JIZYA. STOP THE TRIBUTE.

      Remember Jefferson, at the time of the Barbary Pirates? “Millions for defence; **not a penny for tribute”.

    Let’s not forget the Danish scientists who uncovered the fact the koran urges these people to marry their cousins and half of the world population of muslims are inbred. And people wonder if they are mentally unstable, no, they’re just mentally retarded.

    May 13, 2016 at 1:07 pm

    All this because a Christian confided in his ‘friend’ that he liked a muslim girl.

    The rest is window dressing.

    There are many countries where you take a muslim as a friend at peril of your life.

    In Pakistan this terribly violent and hostile behavior of the Muslims towards those Christians demanding the they convert to Islam further proves that those who make the claim the both Christians and Muslims worship the same God are stating a claim that is a total falsehood. For what is is this awful mayhem and threats about on the part of the Muslims if Muslims and Christians really believe in the same God ?
    To further explain that the God of the Bible and the god of Islam are not the same in that Koran teaches in 112 “He is God alone: God the eternal He begtteth not….” Likewise, the Koran teaches in 19:35. “It is not befitting to God that He should beget a son. ” In great contrast to the Islamic god, the God of the Bible has an only begotten Son. For example ,the Bible in John 1:14. teaches “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us ,and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father ,full of grace and truth.” Likewise the Bible further teaches in John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son…” [N.K.J.V.] So by both the vicious actions of those Muslims towards those Christians along the the great and total difference between the God of the Bible and the god of the Koran it may be see, for all those who are willing to see, that Christian and Muslims do not worship the same God.

      May 13, 2016 at 6:03 pm

      Well ….. the Pope says that if the Christians die as martyrs for their faith they will be rewarded by God in Heaven. Now, Muhammad promised the Muslims that if they kill those who blaspheme God they (the faithful Muslims) will be rewarded in Heaven. As the Pope knows, Muslims and Christians both worship the same God in Heaven …….. same God and same Heaven …. so there really is no problem. The Muslims are killing for God and the Christians are dying for God. This is the perfect way for everyone to get their reward and to live happily ever after together with God in Heaven …. same God, same Heaven, everyone ultimately happy together in Heaven. The Christians will be rewarded for dying for God and the Muslims will be rewarded for killing for God. Now ……. wait a minute ….. is that right? Oh ….. I’m afraid I’m going to have to let Pope Francis explain that after all.

    “Tensions first boiled over after a Muslim man accused his Christian friend, who worked as a hospital cleaner, of insulting the Prophet Mohammed as the pair scrolled through Facebook together at work on April 15.”

    So the moral of the story is? If you live in a muslim majority country be very careful with so called “muslim friends”. They probably aren’t friends at all. In the “West” it might end in an argument, in muslim majority countries, you end up dead.

    • Jack Diamond says

      May 14, 2016 at 12:10 pm

      Except it’s not just him. Muslims believe in collective responsibility. So, all the Christians have a lynch mob after them. “The small community of Christians in a remote village were forced to run for their lives after a crowdof [sic] more than 1000 people gathered outside their homes and demanded they convert to Islam.” Convert to Islam since they have lost any “protection” as dhimmis. Because they have collectively broken the rules (one does it, all are held guilty–this goes back, oh, 14 centuries). It used to require rumors of a desecrated Qur’an, now just a video in a Facebook newsfeed. As long as there is a score to settle an anti-Islamic crime will be discovered.

  11. TopDrifter says

    May 14, 2016 at 12:45 pm

      Where the hell the poor Christians can go? Would the WEST let them in? The so called CHRISTIAN WEST bends forward to please and appease the Muslims who are their WORST ENEMIES. Even the POPE seems ANTI CHRIST and HIS FOLLOWERS CALLED CHRISTIANS. The next PRESIDENT of America should stop all AID to PAKISTAN when BURRAK HUSSEIN ‘O’ leaves the White house.

    That’s true. I know there are groups out there that are providing for Christian refugees, ex. Samaritan’s Purse, RUN ministries, ICC, VOM, Walid Shoebats rescue christians.org, , but the number is small. We don’t hear much about it in the “Christian West”. The silence is deafening. Where is the protest? We all act as sheep being led astray. What can we do?
