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

Pakistan: Muslim screaming “Allahu akbar” blows himself up inside mosque, murdering at least 25 people

Sep 16, 2016 10:56 am By Robert Spencer

Why would a Muslim blow himself inside a mosque that was full of Muslims at prayer? The Qur’an forbids Muslims to kill other Muslims (4:92). But Islam has a death penalty for heretics and apostates. The jihad/martyrdom bomber may have considered that the local tribesmen, by killing a jihadi and capturing another, were “waging war against Allah and his messenger” (Qur’an 5:33), and thus deserved death.

“Suicide bomber kills at least 25 in Pakistani mosque,” by Shams Momand and Jibran Ahmad, Reuters, September 16, 2016:

A suicide bomber shouted “Allahu akbar” and blew himself up in a packed mosque in northwestern Pakistan, killing at least 25 people and wounding 30 during Friday prayers, a local official said.

No group immediately claimed responsibility for the bombing in Payee Khan, a village in Mohmand Agency that is part of the lawless Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) bordering Afghanistan.

“The suicide bomber was in a crowded mosque, he shouted ‘Allahu akbar’ (God is greatest) and then there was a huge blast,” Naveed Akbar, deputy administrator of Mohmand Agency, told Reuters.

Akbar added that some fatalities appear to have been caused when part of the mosque caved in from the force of the blast.

“A portion of the mosque and verandah collapsed in the blast and fell on worshippers. We are still retrieving bodies and the injured from the rubble of the mosque,” he said.

Local tribal elder Haji Subhanullah Mohmand said the attack may have been carried out by Islamist militants seeking revenge after local tribesmen gathered a volunteer force and killed one and captured another insurgent.

“It seems to have enraged the militants and they got their revenge by carrying out a suicide attack in a mosque today,” Mohmand said….

    Muslims have been killing each other for centuries!

      About 1380 years…….and there’s still too many of them.

        That’s because they breed like cockroaches. Hey better over there than here in the western world.

        Muslim lives don’t matter; it is “acceptable” for Muslims to kill each other.

          I have read- (I have mentioned this before) ( and not sure if on JW or elsewhere) that there are some 73 sects and sub-sects of Islam, and 72 are not true Islam ( or similar phrase-not quite sure what that is supposed to mean, but what the hell) and the 73 are supposed to fight/kill each other, UNTIL only the TRUE sect- the true Islam is left.

          I would hope that they start doing a better job, and as Abad says, better there than in the Western World.

          And if the 72 that are killed had lots of people, and they killed a lot of the 73rd population- even better.

    There’s another verse that permits Muslims to kill one another. S 49:9 “And if two parties of the believers fight, then make peace between them. Then if one of them has oppressed the other, then fight the one that oppresses until it returns to the command of Allah. So if it has returned, then make peace between them with justice and act justly. Lo, Allah loves those who act justly.” A very bloody religion.

      Good point – Islam is all about Death – Islam is anti-life.

      Especially when their young roaches have mini-sized suicide belts.

    This is yet more Islamic murderous madness. the followers of this death cult,Islam, are so very uncivilized and deadly that they even murder each other.. No wonder then that they don’t flinch in their slaughtering of people who are non–Muslims. This evil and mad mindset that they have is again a reminder that the Bible teaches “The hearts of people are full of evil and their is madness in their hearts while they live, and afterwards they join the dead.” Ecclesiastes 9:3 [N.I.V.]

      Millions more to go, perhaps billions more to go? I’m sure there are many good Americans that would donate the powder. We need more brave Muslims like him to visit all the CAIR and mosques in America. Let’s see, CAIR jumps into play every time a Muslim gets in trouble with the American culture, they fear monger, use the media to scare people of little resource, bully American citizens into submission. This is the nose of the Muslim cult here in America. How would it be if there was a taxpayer organization for all infidels to call up a lawyer and news media with unlimited funds to go after every accusation CAIR puts up. Free to all NON-Muslim taxpayers. The public needs to have access to a form on the internet like CAIR has, see the following: http://www.cair.com/civil-rights/report-an-incident/view/form.html I think the taxpayers of the United States would love this chance. This would balance the scales of Justice for real American citizens that love America. Spread the word if you think this can be implemented. Also, watch this YouTube movie about the Muslim threat in the US https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=XDz7o6nPFDI

    There is a great reward for those who sacrifice their lives while fighting with infidels. ‘Let those fight in the cause of Allah Who sell the life of this world for the hereafter. To him who fighteth in the cause of Allah,- whether he is slain or gets victory – Soon shall We give him a reward of great (value)’ (4:74).

      So, it is better not allowing Muslims immigrate to America; because, Muslims will start — if not already started — doing the same thing in America.

    So, a devout, peaceful Muslim has detonated his Allah designed, retarded body in a Mosque.. This may be due to a severe mental derangement caused by unknowing contact with the kufr.. I consider this event profoundly progressive. The usual target for murderous, islamic-hero-martyr-fascists are kufr filled buses,trains,clubs,planes,schools such as Beslan,cinemas, churches, shops,supermarkets, etc,etc,etc, ad-infinitum-Islam-shitum. I have no sympathy with Islamic sensibilities whatsoever. I hope this exciting trend will continue to deliver surprise, mass, Muslim martyr-cadaver throngs to Allah’s, seethingly- busy charnel-house-heaven. May I suggest Mr Muslim, an improvement on your bombing career that would make me very content ??? BIGGER BOMBS IN LARGER MOSQUES. !!

    Muslims kill and kill and kill. They have no concept of peace, nor of tolerance, nor of symbiosis.

    What would happen today if there was an accepted caliphate? Same as happened with the first one. – see link Especially #4 on this list
    https://www.thereligionofpeace.com/pages/articles/10-reasons-not-peace.aspx

    FYI The Sunni and Shia disagree about the validity of the various historic caliphs, and in fact history records there were multiple, and chronologically simultaneous caliphates. There is no universally accepted succession of caliphs within Islam. Caliph ( خَليفة ) just means successor, as in who is the next “valid” leader/ruler of Islam. The simple fact that Muslims can’t agree is proof of the falsehood of Islam. Why would Allah allow Islam to fracture into 73 sects?

    ————-
    The other islamically-illogical thing that Muslims do is kill members of other sects.
    Now, if Mohammed said there would be 73 sects in the end time, and you kill everyone but those in your sect, there would only be one sect left, negating the required 73 for the end time. doing a quick Google search I can find reference to about a dozen “living” sects, far short of the required 73 in the end time. Muslims should work at making more sects, so they can reach the required 73 before the end.
    But, stupid is as stupid does – average IQ in Middle East is below 85, so can’t expect too much from an average muzzle.

    ——-
    The Hadith referred is as follows:

    أخبرنا أبو العباس قاسم بن القاسم السياري بمرو ثنا أبو الموجه حدثنا أبو عمار : ثنا الفضل بن موسى عن محمد بن عمرو عن أبي سلمة عن أبي هريرة : أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم قال : افترقت اليهود على إحدى و سبعين فرقة أو اثنتين و سبعين فرقة و النصارى مثل ذلك و تفترق أمتي على ثلاث و سبعين فرقة (المستدرك)

    “Abu Hurayrah (RadiyAllahu Anhu) relates that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said: ‘The Jews were divided into 71 or 72 sects as were the Christians. My Ummah will be divided into 73 sects.” (Al-Mustadrak)

    The hadith of our beloved Prophet is in Hadith book Abu Dawood:

    In this hadith the prophet (pbuh) is reported to have said, “My community will be split up into seventy-three sects.”

    (Sunan Abu Dawood Hadith No. 4579)
