“If a divine disaster hits an infidel, I’m happy.”
Why? Because it’s in the Qur’an: “Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and those with him are harsh against the disbelievers, merciful among themselves.” (Qur’an 48:29)
“Jordanian-Palestinian Cleric Mashhoor bin Hassan: I Am Happy over Israel Fires, the Jews behind All the Wars on Earth,” MEMRI, November 25, 2016:
Jordanian-Palestinian cleric Sheikh Mashhoor bin Hassan said that “If a divine disaster hits an infidel, I’m happy,” and that happiness at the fires raging in Israel over the past few days “is in keeping with the shari’a.” Sheikh bin Hassan prayed to Allah “to rid the Muslims of the evil [of the Jews],” who, he said, were “behind all the wars and fitna on the face of the Earth.” Sheikh bin Hassan’s statements were posted on his YouTube channel on November 25.
Following are excerpts
Mashhoor bin Hassan: A brother is asking: “What is the position of the Muslims regarding the fires that struck the Jews in Palestine? Should we pray even more against them?”
[…]
If a divine disaster hits an infidel, I’m happy. What is a divine disaster?
Audience member: A fire, for example.
Mashhoor bin Hassan: So happiness in this case is in keeping with the shari’a. May Allah rid the Muslims of the evil of the Jews. By Allah, the Jews are behind all the wars and fitna on the face of the Earth. By Allah, everything that is happening in Syria and in the Muslim countries is to the benefit of the Jews. Everything that is happening in the Muslim countries is to the benefit of the Jews. I pray for Allah to wreak vengeance upon them. I pray for Allah to fight them. I pray for Allah to rid the Muslims of the evil [of the Jews]. So this happiness is a good thing.

“Religion of peace”, ladies and gentlemen. And “liberals” wonder why the Middle East is so f***ed up… Well, they don’t “wonder” as much as they “blame the US and Israel for”, and such is their devotion that things such as “facts” won’t sway their minds.
Moses says
Islam is full of NUTS !!!! For real.
Star says
Islam is from the devil unless you never can be happy about fire and accidents. This religion is completely crazy and bad. No normal person can be happy for the sadness in other peoples life, when you are…. you are mental ill and bad.

“Jordanian-Palestinian cleric Sheikh Mashhoor bin Hassan said…”
What?! Wait just a second, now!
Why is he being labelled a “Jordanian-Palestinian” ?
______________________________________
He’s not a Palestinian, because there is NO SUCH STATE.
He isn’t a Jordanian, either.
He’s a TRANS-JORDANIAN…and that’s it!
________________________________
Jordan kicked out idiots like this “cleric” decades ago, for trying to assassinate the king of Jordan.
ALL so-called Palestinians are stateless mongrels who need to be thrown in jail, or sent back to Jordan to be dealt with by the Jordanians.

The bit that makes me gafaw and scoff is ‘merciful amongst themselves’ – yeah right!!
Voytek Gagalka says
Subsequently, I am quite happy when any disaster (I mean ANY) hits the “land of Islam,” and particularly and exponentially so if that would happen in Mecca!… They can call me “Islamophobe” for that. I will call them Kafir-phobe!

i doubt much if this so-called cleric made this statement relying on quran 48:29.the verse reads in arabic”muhammadu rasulullah walladhina maahu ashidau alal kuffari ruhamau bainahum”.it is describing the scenario at the battlefield where jihad in the form of military confrontation is resorted to.that muhammad (or any muslim military commander)and those fighting with him do fight fiercely against the enemy unbelievers and helping each other in the prosecution of the war.see ibn kathir’s commentary on this verse.it has nothing to do with muslims to be happy with a disaster falling on non-muslims.if at all the so-called cleric made the statement relying on this verse,he is wrong.islam does not allow muslims to be mercyless to human beings without war and wish calamity to fall on them even they are non- muslims.

……………………………….
Sheikh Mashoor bin Hasan Al-Salman is a well-known Muslim cleric, and his views are often cited in Muslim media. In what way is muhammed saying he doubts that?
As for Qur’an 48:29, this is the text:
“Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah ; and those with him are forceful against the disbelievers, merciful among themselves. You see them bowing and prostrating [in prayer], seeking bounty from Allah and [His] pleasure. Their mark is on their faces from the trace of prostration. That is their description in the Torah. And their description in the Gospel is as a plant which produces its offshoots and strengthens them so they grow firm and stand upon their stalks, delighting the sowers – so that Allah may enrage by them the disbelievers. Allah has promised those who believe and do righteous deeds among them forgiveness and a great reward.”
There is no indication that this refers only to wartime–in fact, here is the previous Ayat, Qur’an 48:28:
“It is He who sent His Messenger with guidance and the religion of truth to manifest it over all religion. And sufficient is Allah as Witness.”
This makes it clear that this is universal, and not just pertaining to a specific situation.
More:
that muhammad (sic) (or any muslim (sic) military commander)and those fighting with him do fight fiercely against the enemy unbelievers and helping each other in the prosecution of the war.
……………………………….
And the mask slips–here muhammed is admitting that Muslims attack others because they are *unbelievers*–that is, who have not yet submitted to Islam.
More:
see ibn kathir’s commentary on this verse
……………………………….
ibn Kathir crows that Muslims will conquer the known world, an
This is all a distinction without a difference–Muslims consider themselves to be at war with *all* Infidels.
More:
.it has nothing to do with muslims (sic) to be happy with a disaster falling on non-muslims.if (sic) at all the so-called cleric made the statement relying on this verse,he is wrong.islam (sic) does not allow muslims (sic) to be mercyless (sic) to human beings without war and wish calamity to fall on them even they are non- muslims (sic).
……………………………….
Pious Muslims do not consider any unbelievers–let alone the “filthy Jews”–to be human beings. What sloppy Taqiyya.
