Egypt: Christian’s home burned by Muslims, told to withdraw complaint or “there will be blood”

Aug 7, 2016 8:59 pm By Robert Spencer

Will the Islamophobia never end?

“Christian girl recalls horror when Islamist radicals attacked and burned their home in Egypt,” by Hazel Torres, Christian Today, August 6, 2016:

Imagine the horror that gripped members of a Coptic Christian family in Egypt when they saw a mob of angry Muslim radicals attacking and burning their home in the middle of the night.

The sight was even more terrifying to a child who described what happened to their family’s home, The Financial Times reported.

“I was terrified. I saw men pour petrol on bundles of wood and throw them on our roof. When it began to fall on us, my father dragged us out,” 11-year-old Susana Khalaf said in the offices of her family’s lawyer in Minya, capital of the Egyptian province where their village of Kom El Louf is located.

Ibrahim Khalaf, the girl’s father, said the Muslim mob attacked their home based on a rumour that they were converting their house into a church when they started replacing its wooden roof with concrete.

The attack on the Khalaf family last June was part of the rising sectarian violence against Egypt’s Coptic Christians.

Just last month, five Christian houses were burnt in another village after rumours spread that residents were building a church.

Muslims often consider the building of a church in their area as an insult.

The fear of a Christian church rising near their community is not the only thing that keeps the Muslim extremists wary of their Christian neighbours.

In May, an elderly Christian woman was stripped by a crowd and paraded down the street based on a rumour that her son was having an affair with a Muslim woman.

Ibrahim Khalaf is demanding full justice for his destroyed house despite pressure for him to withdraw his police complaints.

Nineteen people have been arrested over the attack.

Khalaf said he has been warned that if he doesn’t withdraw his complaints “there will be blood.”

Those who issued the warning even threatened his daughters, saying they “can be kidnapped” and that “the security services won’t stay in the village forever to protect you.”…

    Egypt: Christian’s home burned by Muslims, told to withdraw complaint or “there will be blood”
    …………………

    This is *very* common. One more thing that Infidels are not allowed to do under Shari’ah law is to complain about Muslim savagery towards them.

      Forget about islamic Egypt, where America and the West abandoned their longtime ally who kept islamists down for decades (Gen. Mubarak) in favor of the (Muslim Brotherhood) revolution led by Mursi but even in America the mere word (Christian) is being considered very offensive and being rejected by the pro-islamic atheistic establishment elites that run the West. There is NO difference between islam-favoring America and its jihadist allies across the globe. They are both evil, Anti-Christ entities to the core which God should judge and severely punish.

        Oh, good grief. If you have the idea that Christians in America are having their homes burned down and are threatened with violence if they dare report it, then you are so far off base as to be delusional.

        Yes–that newspaper is disgusting–but newspapers here are privately owned–they are not state-owned, as in Russia. Owners can decide what ads to run and which to reject.

    Can we believe anything the MSM writes?
    They LIE all the time.
    Muslims intimidate the MSM and warn the MSM if they reveal Islam’s daily disgrace, Muslims will WHINE and loudly complain,

    Then the dhimmi MSM constantly chastises the West for not caring enough or “doing enough” in the Idiocy of inviting even more of these nasty Muslim invaders. The MSM takes Donald Trumps innocent remarks out of context the fabricates a new Muslim appeasing anti-Trump narrative.

    Virtually EVERYTHING the MSM announces is …… a LIE.

    The concept of “Dhimmi” in Islam:

    Many people have a misunderstanding about the concept of “dhimmi” in Islam. Some take it as intimidating label for the minorities under the Islamic rule. This certainly is not the case.

    The word actually means, “One whose responsibility has been taken” i.e. someone responsibility of the protection of whose life and property is taken by the Islamic government.

    Following is what Edward William Lane writes about the “Ahl Dhimma”;

    Edward William Lane’s Arabic-English Lexicon Book I p. 976

    In Islamic literature they are also referred to as “Mu’ahid.” Dr. James Robson in an explanatory note to a Hadith says, “This is used of a member of protected communities, but it is also used of anyone who belongs to a non-Muslim community with whom a treaty of peace has been made.”(Mishkat al-Masabih vol.1p.735)

    So in short, the “Dhimmis” are the People of Covenant whom the Islamic rule pledges every kind of security and toleration.

    Prophetic narrations about “Dhmmis”:

    Allah’s Messenger, may Allah bless him, said: “If anyone wrongs a man with whom a covenant has been made, or curtails any right of his, or imposes on him more than he can bear, or takes anything from him without his ready agreement, I shall be his adversary on the day of resurrection.” (Sunan Abu Dawud, Hadith 3052. Classified as Sahih by Albani)

    The Prophet, may Allah bless him, said, “Whoever killed a Mu’ahid (a person who is granted the pledge of protection by the Muslims) shall not smell the fragrance of Paradise though its fragrance can be smelt at a distance of forty years (of traveling).” (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 2930)

    Covenant of ‘Umar to the people of Jerusalem:

    The covenant of ‘Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, is a wonderful document showing Islam’s approach to non-Muslims living in peace within Islamic rule. Following is recorded by al-Tabari;

    “In the name of Allah, the most Gracious, most Beneficent. This is covenant of peace granted by the slave of Allah, the commander of the faithful ‘Umar to the people of Jerusalem. They are granted protection for their lives, their property, their churches, and their Crosses, in whatever condition they are. All of them are granted the same protection. No one will dwell in their churches, nor will they be destroyed and nothing will be reduced of their belongings. Nothing shall be taken from their Crosses or their property. There will be no compulsion on them regarding their religion, nor will any one of them be troubled.” (Tarikh al-Tabari 2/308)

    Also it is recorded in Sahih Bukhari;

    Umar (after he was stabbed), instructed (his would-be-successor) saying, “I urge him (i.e. the new Caliph) to take care of those non-Muslims who are under the protection of Allah and His Messenger in that he should observe the convention agreed upon with them, and fight on their behalf (to secure their safety) and he should not over-tax them beyond their capability.” (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 2824)

    Other Companions:

    Khalid bin Walid, may Allah be pleased with him, is reported to have said, “Do not harm one given protection for a needle or anything less than that.” (Abu ‘Ubaid’s Kitabul Amwal, Narration 12)

    Sa’sah said, I asked Ibn Abbas; “We travel in the lands of the people of protection (non-Muslims living under Muslim rule) and so we take something from them.” He asked, “Without payment?” I said, “Yes without any payment.” He asked, “So what do think of it?” I said, “[With think it is] legal and there is no problem in it.” He said, “Do you argue like the people of Book who said, ‘There is no way we can be blamed in the matter of the unlettered’?” (Abu ‘Ubaid’s Kitabul Amwal, Narration 370)

    Sayings of Muslim jurists:

    Muhammad bin Hassan al-Shaybani said:

    “When Muslims took their responsibility they accepted the obligation to ward off oppression from them and they became citizens of Darul Islam.” (Sharah Sayr al-Kabir 1/69)

    Another well known manual of Islamic jurisprudence reads;

    “It will be a sin to call a Jew or a Magian, ‘O Infidel!’ if he disliked it.” (Fatawa Hindiya 43/382)

    Acknowledgment of Orientalists:

    It is an established fact that Muslims generally treated their non-Muslim subjects very well. This is particularly true for the times of the Righteous Caliphs who are the beacon of light for Muslims.

    Even jaundiced-eye orientalists had no choice but to accept this reality. For instance, William Montgomery Watt writes;

    “In the early days of Islamic empire the Christian inhabitants of Egypt and the Fertile Crescent were probably better off as dhimmis under Muslim Arab rulers than they had been under Byzantine Greeks.” (Islamic Political Thought, The basic Concepts p. 51)

    He also said, “On the whole there was more genuine toleration of non-Muslims under Islam than there was of non-Christians in medieval Christian states” (Ibid.)

    Infact toleration of minorities during prime Muslim rule is unparalleled even to this day. In the Christian West, who claims to have championed the cause of religious and personal freedom, Muslims are subject to much prejudice. In many Western countries Muslim women are not allowed to dress the way Islam prescribes and the way they so yearn to. In many others Islamic ideals and personalities are ridiculed in the name of ‘freedom of expression.’ And we also have an example where Muslims are not allowed to build their mosques in the traditional harmless way. And all this happens in states who claim to have divorced with religious ‘prejudices.’

    The fact of the matter remains that Islam alone is the way forward for humanity and the only system that ensures freedom and tolerance of the minorities is the one that springs from the fountains of Holy Qur’an and the blessed Sunnah of the Holy Prophet on whom be the peace and blessings of the Almighty.

      I suppose you know the english definition of sham?

      No matter how much you believe the rhetoric of which you may be proudly patting yourself on the back for in your above post, facts and history remain intact as witness and testimony to the truth. I believe you have picked the wrong website to bring the lie of Islam to try and whitewash the reality of 1400 years of proof of the barbaric treatment of non-Muslims.

      The simplest question for you sham is have you actually read the entire quran? If Islam is the way forward for humanity and it is perfection in and of itself, then why do death and destruction follow it wherever it spreads itself. If it is so peaceful, then why have so many Christians, Jews, Hindus and countless others been slaughtered and their deaths justified by versus in the quran, which call for the killing of non-Muslims.

      No need to answer any of these questions as I’m sure you either believe Islam is such a great religion that everyone should either convert to or be ruled by it or you are ignorant to what the quran commands muslims to do to non-believers and apostates.

      Edward William Lane also recorded the Friday prayer of the Muslim school boys in Cairo in Appendix D of his 1835 book “The Manners & Customs of the Modern Egyptians.”

      “I seek refuge with God from Satan the accursed. In the name of God the Compassionate, the Merciful.

      O God, aid El-Islam, and exalt the word of truth, and the faith, by the preservation of thy servant, and the son of thy servant, the Sultan of the two continents, and Khakan of the two seas, the Sultan and the son of the Sultan, {Mahmood] Khan.

      O God, assist him, and assist his armies, and all the forces of the Muslims: O Lord of the beings of the whole world.

      O God, destroy the infidels and polytheists, thine enemies, the enemies of the religion.

      O God, make their children orphans, and defile their abodes, and cause their feet to slip, and give them and their families and their households and their women and their children and their relations by marriage and their brothers and their friends and their possessions and their race and their wealth and their lands as booty to the Muslims: O Lord of the beings of the whole world.”

      Contrast this with the opening of the Liturgy of St John Chrysostom:

      “In peace, let us pray to the Lord.

      For the peace from above and for the salvation of our souls, let us pray to the Lord.

      For the peace of the whole world, for the stability of the holy churches of God, and for the unity of all, let us pray to the Lord.

      For this holy house and for those who enter it with faith, reverence, and the fear of God, let us pray to the Lord.

      For pious and Orthodox Christians, let us pray to the Lord.

      For our Archbishop (Name), for the honorable presbyterate, for the diaconate in Christ, and for all the clergy and the people, let us pray to the Lord.

      For our country, for the president, and for all in public service, let us pray to the Lord.

      For this city, and for every city and land, and for the faithful who live in them, let us pray to the Lord.

      For favorable weather, for an abundance of the fruits of the earth, and for peaceful times, let us pray to the Lord.

      For those who travel by land, sea, and air, for the sick, the suffering, the captives and for their salvation, let us pray to the Lord.

      For our deliverance from all affliction, wrath, danger, and necessity, let
      us pray to the Lord.

      Help us, save us, have mercy on us, and protect us, O God, by Your grace.”

      What Muslims can consider prayer is disgusting.

      Sham: there are rules against wearing full face coverings in some Western countries, because in Western culture in general, it is considered rude not to show your face to people you are speaking to. When one moves to a different culture, then one has to try to adapt somewhat. If I went to live in Saudi Arabia or Iran, I wouldn’t demand the right to walk around sloshed on vodka or rum (I wouldn’t do anyway, as I’m a moderate drinker), or the right to dine on prosciutto or other types of pork. If I were a Western woman on those countries, I would try to conform to local dress codes, even if I felt that those laws were excessive.

      Full face coverings can also be dangerous. Muslim women are not even allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia, so they shouldn’t expect to wear face veils while driving in Western countries, as that could obstruct their vision and thus cause accidents, and make it hard for police officers to interact with them in certain necessary situations. Full coverings are also bad because a person could commit a crime and have reduced chances of being caught, since their face is covered (and one might not even be able to tell if they’re male or female; some terrorists have taken advantage of this). Female teachers who wear full face veils may also be less effective at teaching students, because you cannot see their lips enunciate words, and their voices may be muffled.

      In most Western countries, people can usually keep key aspects of their ethnic and religious culture; for example, Italian-Americans are U.S. citizens, yet they can learn and use Italian language in certain districts; they can practice their religious faith or faiths (usually Catholicism, but other faiths as well), they can enjoy Italian opera, arts, newspapers, radio, T.V. stations and so on. However, they are *not* allowed to freely foster organized crime syndicates from the old country, or dsicriminate against people of other races and ethnicities; but, that is true for other groups of people as well.

      I recall an article by Ayaan Hirsi Ali entitled, “The Rise of Christophobia in the Islamic World.” As she correctly pointed out, “Disrespectful cartoons, movies and vidoes are one thing, while guns, knives and bombs are another.” In other words, the level of discrimination against Muslims in the West is relatively mild compared with the violent persecution which many non-Muslim minorities are currently suffering in a number of Muslim-majority countries. And, if there is some prejudice against Muslims in the West, could it be partly due to the conduct of extremist Muslims? For instance, dozens of terrorist attacks and/or attempted attacks by Islamists in Western nations since 9/11; the majority of mosques in the U.S. preaching contempt or hatred towards non-Muslims; disproportionate epidemics of rape and violence by Muslim males towards non-Muslims (in countries such as Sweden, the UK, Germany, etc.)

      You talk about the West restricting the building of mosques…in Saudi Arabia, people are even allowed to build churches or other non-Muslims houses or worship, and it’s very difficult to construct churches in other predominantly Muslim countries such as Egypt and Pakistan, for example.

      “He also said, “On the whole there was more genuine toleration of non-Muslims under Islam than there was of non-Christians in medieval Christian states” (Ibid.)”

      That’s not true

      As a Christian who was born and raised in Indonesia (a secular Muslim country that used to be Hindu), I experienced persecution and discrimination by Muslims. The Muslims are burning and closing down hundreds of churches every year. They said the churches were illegally built in a residence complex or it did not have the necessary permit. I remember when I was a child, we were building a new church in a neighborhood where there were more Muslims. We had many problems with permit and safety issues.The Muslim kids kept throwing rocks and bricks at the building and the cross. As a result, we had to relocate and build the church in a Christian neighborhood.

      The person’s religion is written on his/her ID (residency) card. So, if we got stop at traffic, the non-Muslims pay more fine. Muslim students are accepted into good state-sponsored universities at lower entrance examination scores than the non-Muslims. Prospective university students are required to write down their religion on the application form. It is not uncommon that many Christian students stated they were Muslims on their form to gain acceptance into the university. During Ramadan I am not allowed to eat outside and all of the restaurants have to close during the day. I can’t buy pork or pork products at the supermarkets. Restaurants are not allowed to have pork on their menu because Muslims are not allowed to eat from the plates that were used to serve pork or their meals cooked on the same pots/pans used for pork. Because Muslims don’t drink alcohol, no body else are allowed either, even beer.

      Five times a day the Muslims announce their call to prayer through loudspeaker. They are so loud you cannot even talk to the person next to you. Christmas, a time for peace and joy, is also a time for fear. There are always threats of bombs and violence.

      Non-Muslims are not allowed high positions in the government. There was a riot when a Christian man was elected governor of Jakarta.

      Check out these links:

      Christians were worshiping inside a makeshift church and the Muslims played loud music through loudspeaker. There was no protection from the police.
      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxeuKzdU-FY

      Muslims prevented Christians to go to their church that was closed. They then had their worship on the street. Go to the end of the video where a Muslim threatened to decapitate the minister.

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7FAH5dM9Dg
      West Papua is struggling for independence from Indonesian government. They put Muslims there and built mosques. The goal is to convert the people of West Papua to Islam using the same strategy as they did in East Timor. Many people had died fighting for their independence.

      More spam from sham:

      The concept of “Dhimmi” in Islam:

      Many people have a misunderstanding about the concept of “dhimmi” in Islam. Some take it as intimidating label for the minorities under the Islamic rule. This certainly is not the case.

      The word actually means, “One whose responsibility has been taken” i.e. someone responsibility of the protection of whose life and property is taken by the Islamic government.
      ………………………………..

      What is “protection” for Infidels under and Islamic state? It is *exactly* what we see in the story above–the Kuffar can be threatened, robbed, kidnapped, raped, and even murdered.

      So–in what way is this “protection”? Well, it means that dhimmis–Infidels who have submitted to Islam–are not to be enslaved and slaughtered *en masse*. That is the only “protection” they have under Islam.

      Here is the “Pact of Umar”–the Ur-document of dhimmitude:

      http://sourcebooks.fordham.edu/halsall/source/pact-umar.asp

      You will notice that dhimmis are despised and humiliated second-class citizens *at best*, who may do nothing to protect themselves from Muslim violence.

      More:

      Following is what Edward William Lane writes about the “Ahl Dhimma”;

      Edward William Lane’s Arabic-English Lexicon Book I p. 976
      ………………………………..

      Is sham too inept to actual post this material? It appears so.

      Lane was a 19th century Orientalist. He posed as a Muslim Turk in Egypt, and what little he learned about the oppressed Copts there came from a convert to Islam who abused his former coreligionists. He got a lot of elementary facts about the Copts wrong, as well–including the idea that they were Eutychians, which holds that Christ was not really human. More ludicrously, he claimed that the Copts welcomed being conquered and oppressed by invading Muslims. He also claimed–bizarrely, and no doubt due to his Muslim informant–that all Copts were perpetually drunk on brandy.

      But *even he* admitted that the Copts were persecuted “under the tyranny of Muslim princes”. He wrote:

      “They have often incurred severe oppression by their own folly, though they have more frequently been victims of unmerited persecution under tyrannical rulers and through the influence of private fanatics. (Pp. 338-9.)”

      So even someone who had been given a vicious view of the Copts openly said that they were persecuted under Islam. How can sham think we would not know that?

      More:

      In Islamic literature they are also referred to as “Mu’ahid.” Dr. James Robson in an explanatory note to a Hadith says, “This is used of a member of protected communities, but it is also used of anyone who belongs to a non-Muslim community with whom a treaty of peace has been made.”(Mishkat al-Masabih vol.1p.735)

      So in short, the “Dhimmis” are the People of Covenant whom the Islamic rule pledges every kind of security and toleration.
      ………………………………..

      Actually, this is not something that Reverend Robson says at all–instead, it is Taqiyya from a Muslim commentor.

      This is where sham cribbed his entire post from:

      http://www.letmeturnthetables.com/2011/05/concept-of-dhimmi-in-islam.html

      “Let Me Turn the Tables” is a Muslim apology site, whitewashing such issues as the “Prophet’s” raping Safiya, beating his child bride Aisha, Muslims keeping captured Infidels as sex slaves, wife beating, slavery, mass murder and other edifying Islamic topics.

      Yet more:

      Covenant of ‘Umar to the people of Jerusalem:

      The covenant of ‘Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, is a wonderful document showing Islam’s approach to non-Muslims living in peace within Islamic rule.
      ………………………………..

      You can see how “wonderful” this oppressive document is at the link I provided, above.

      More:

      Also it is recorded in Sahih Bukhari;

      Umar (after he was stabbed), instructed (his would-be-successor) saying, “I urge him (i.e. the new Caliph) to take care of those non-Muslims who are under the protection of Allah and His Messenger in that he should observe the convention agreed upon with them, and fight on their behalf (to secure their safety) and he should not over-tax them beyond their capability.” (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 2824)

      Um, no. Here’s Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 2824:

      “Narrated As-Sa’-ib bin Yazid: I was in the company of Talha bin ‘Ubaidullah, Sa`d, Al-Miqdad bin Al-Aswad and `Abdur Rahman bin `Auf and I heard none of them narrating anything from Allah’s Messenger (PBUH) but Talha was talking about the day (of the battle) of Uhud.”

      The only online source that has sham’s “translation” is at “Turn the Tables” itself.

      Other Companions:

      Khalid bin Walid, may Allah be pleased with him, is reported to have said, “Do not harm one given protection for a needle or anything less than that.” (Abu ‘Ubaid’s Kitabul Amwal, Narration 12)
      ………………………………..

      Well, this is pretty cheap…it is, in fact, proof that Muslims need little incentive to harm dhimmis.

      More:

      Sa’sah said, I asked Ibn Abbas; “We travel in the lands of the people of protection (non-Muslims living under Muslim rule) and so we take something from them.” He asked, “Without payment?” I said, “Yes without any payment.” He asked, “So what do think of it?” I said, “[With think it is] legal and there is no problem in it.” He said, “Do you argue like the people of Book who said, ‘There is no way we can be blamed in the matter of the unlettered’?” (Abu ‘Ubaid’s Kitabul Amwal, Narration 370)
      ………………………………..

      Um–this is more confirmation that Muslims have little to fear from robbing and abusing dhimmis.

      More:

      Sayings of Muslim jurists:

      Muhammad bin Hassan al-Shaybani said:

      “When Muslims took their responsibility they accepted the obligation to ward off oppression from them and they became citizens of Darul Islam.” (Sharah Sayr al-Kabir 1/69)
      ………………………………..

      Who is “they”? There is no indication that this is about dhimmis, nor that dhimmis are not abused under Islam. The “oppression” refers to to Muslims being “oppressed” by Infidels merely by dint of the Infidels living freely.

      More:

      Another well known manual of Islamic jurisprudence reads;

      “It will be a sin to call a Jew or a Magian, ‘O Infidel!’ if he disliked it.” (Fatawa Hindiya 43/382)
      ………………………………..

      Well, *that* sounds enlightened. Will sham also tell us that the Fatawa Hindiya (a compilation of Shari’ah laws imposed in India) also legalized the pillaging of Infidels by Muslims, and that Muslims may take Infidels as slaves? It seems not…

      More:

      Infact (sic) toleration of minorities during prime Muslim rule is unparalleled even to this day. In the Christian West, who claims to have championed the cause of religious and personal freedom, Muslims are subject to much prejudice.
      ………………………………..

      What sham means here is that if the “filthy Infidels” dare take issue with Muslims raping and murdering us, then that is “prejudice”.

      Yet more:

      In many Western countries Muslim women are not allowed to dress the way Islam prescribes and the way they so yearn to. In many others Islamic ideals and personalities are ridiculed in the name of ‘freedom of expression.’
      ………………………………..

      And here’s the nub–unless we destroy our own freedoms in favor of barbaric Shari’ah, then we are not allowing Muslims freedom of religion.

      In fact, it is more than this–if we do not allow Muslims to conquer and oppress us, then we are not allowing them to fully practice their foul creed.

    What an intolerable situation the Coptic Christian find themselves in. But when Egypt’s grand mufti visits Britain or European church leaders roll out the red carpet. Will they speak on behalf of the least of their brothers and sisters? No, they value the pointless interfaith dialogue and it’s photo opportunities more.

      Pope Dhimmi the First went over to the Dark Side.
      He actively and passively promotes Satan as the Saviour.
      Pope Dhimmy the First is the Satan appointed Judas Goat of humanity.

    One more example testifying to just why Muslims do what they do.

    Echoes, shades in this report of the events of the siege of the Banu Nadir, in their township in the suburbs of al-Medina.

    ………………..

    … just as the Qur’an, ahadith, sira, tafsir, and maghazi provide how “Allah” came to the Jewish tribe of the Banu Nadir. When, in short here, there were past the time of kindness. Past the time for peace agreements. Because they had rejected the message brought by the “prophet.” And when charged by him for plotting his murder, and thus, informed of his verdict concerning them, they likewise rejected his verdict.

    Waqidi’s account of the story puts the order, verdict, and threat of the “prophet” in these words respectively: “Leave my land [the homeland of the Banu Nadir Jews]. I have granted you a period of ten days. Whoever is seen after that, his head will be cut off.” 134

    The brief on the narrative of the account goes, in short, the Banu Nadir dug in. Refused to leave. Instead, with their cattle, their wives, and their children, took to their fortresses. 135

    Therefore, it was, asserts the Qur’anic record, “They deemed that their fortresses would protect them from Allah. But Allah came to them from where they did not expect, and cast fear in their hearts when they were spoiling their homes with their own hands and with the hands of the believers. So learn a lesson, O those who have eyes.” (Surah Al-Hashr 59: 1, as rendered in Ma’ariful Qur’an Vol. 8.)

    How did Allah come to them from whence they did not expect? In that instance, with life-threatening fire and smoke.

    Fire and smoke, from fires set by the hands of the believers: “The Jews took refuge in their forts and the apostle ordered that the palm-trees should be cut down and burnt.” 136

    How did Allah “cast fear in their [the Banu Nadir] hearts?” Via the actions of the hands of the believers.

    For that reason, Sahih Muslim relates, “on the authority of ‘Abdullah that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) ordered the date-palms of Banu Nadir to be burnt and cut.” 137

    Therewith setting the precedence, establishing the sunnah, of creativity in Islam with respect to weapons– “weaponizing” what one least expects one would use as weapons. Weaponizing that that the “enemy” provides at hand, as in weaponizing date-palm orchards, boarding passes, American Airlines.

    Weaponizing, if such will serve the cause, one’s vocational skills and “earned” “trustworthiness.”

    Thus, enabling one to strike with that, when, where, and how one would least expect. For such reasons, when “fitting,” doing just that is a practice commonplace with the followers of Sunnah.

    I’m not sure it’s even possible to “burn” a home in Egypt – even the interior walls are made of brick.

      I guess these Christians should have no concerns, then:
