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

Video: Robert Spencer on Sharia

Jun 20, 2016 12:08 pm By Robert Spencer

In this eleventh segment of my Basics of Islam series, I discuss Islamic law, Sharia, and what it states about the status of Jews and Christians under the rule of an Islamic state.

    since implementing sharia law is the stated goal of every islamist, and since sharia is based upon the debased life and teachings of muhammed (who is considered isam’s perfect man), AND since muhammed was a DEMON POSSESSED MASS MURDERE LIAR THIEF MISOGYNIST AND PEDOOPHILE PERVERT, I think the world is in trouble

      Brother the world has been in trouble since governments of every countries taken in blood money from the rich oil Arab therefore the world has since been in trouble as a result of CORRUPTIONS that game with their money. Having said that, you are right in all you’ve said about a MAN WITH A PERVERTED MIND THEREFORE HIS FOLLOWERS ARE ALL PERVERTED THROUGH HIS PERVERTED TEACHING.

    Another excellent video, informative and not too long.
    Thank you. Long may they flourish.

        I agree. Good job Robert. Thanks for all your work.

    Robert Spencer, referring to the commentary of Sultanhussein Tabandeh on the U. N. Declaration of Human Rights, stated: “That institutionalized inequality and the devaluation of non-Muslim lives is the hallmark of Sharia.”

    Excellent video that drives home the incompatibility of Sharia with the U. S. Constitution in one brilliant, final sentence! Thanks, Robert.

    If religious freedom is about the right to worship and believe, what has that got to do with alternative legal systems?

    Which amendment says that groups of people can setup their own laws to override those of the Nation?

    I like these excellent informative videos, I hope you continue with this series to cover more subjects.

    May I just clarify a point about Al Azhar University, which Robert briefly referred to.
    First: There is Al Azhar Mosque (over a thousand years old). The title Imam of Al Azhar mosque is traditionally considered the highest Islamic title in Egypt, and other sunni countries. The Imam works in a nearby building, with his aides of other high ranking Imams and staff.
    Second: Al Azhar University is just like other universities with more emphasis on Islamic Studies (but they also teach literature, sciences and medicine).

    It is Al Azhar Mosque that issues fatwas and religious opinions, not the university (as the video suggested). Head of Al Azhar University,in theory, could be a doctor of medicine, although it never happened yet.

    Fascinating. Thank goodness for the first amendment.

    We need a non-PC politician to declare a list of universal human rights. Free speech, free of and from religion, the right to reject to change one’s religion, the to have no religion, equal rights under the law regardless of race, gender, or sexual orientation, etc.

    A statement that Sharia law is incompatible with human rights, freedom, and Western democracy. Stir the pot, and let our enemies show themselves with their silence.

    We must resist “hate speech” laws. Frighteningly, some of our European friends have passed “hate speech” laws. Now, a government official has power over speech in these “free” countries.

    Sharia is the law of Satan.
    Google: Allah Satan
    Google: 669 million non-muslims massacred

    Sharia isn’t only outdated, superstitious, savage and barbaric – it’s also just plain STUPID.

    Pretending one can create a “legal” system from an arch-criminals’ crimes and excuses is STUPID.

    Islam (‘submission’ to extortion) is extortion, just like ‘socialism’ is. Extortion is not ‘sociable,’ nor is it also ‘holy and righteous’ – it’s simply a crime. It’s other names are crime-excusing lies.
