A brave ex-Muslim woman confronts a murderous Toronto imam. My latest in PJ Media:
At a Toronto mosque, an imam recently prayed that Allah would kill unbelievers “and spare not one of them,” and “purify Al-Aqsa Mosque from the filth of the Jews.”
An ex-Muslim named Sandra Solomon showed up at that mosque Saturday with some requests of her own:
I am standing here in your mosque today, asking for you to show me the tolerance you ask of all Canadians. To accept me for whom I am and the free choices I made to be something other than Muslim.
…
I have concern about my life and I would love to get an answer from you Muslims to tell me: Am I going to be killed, or my child is going to be killed or harmed by anyway for me openly criticizing Islam?
It was a fair question, and a poignant one coming at a time when the Canadian Parliament is considering a motion condemning an undefined “Islamophobia.” While Canada mulls officially designating Muslims as a victim class, Sandra Solomon is worried about being victimized by those supposed victims.
“[A] member of the mosque congregation said to Sandra that she is free to choose her faith emphasizing that her problem is not with Islam but with the Saudi regime.”
This was, unfortunately, not true. We may surmise this from how Islamic tradition records Muhammad himself dealing with criticism.
Abu Afak was a poet who was over one hundred years old, and he had mocked Muhammad in his verses. Muhammad asked the “companions” (sahaba), his closest followers: “Who will avenge me on this scoundrel?” One of the companions murdered Abu Afak in his sleep.
Likewise with another poet who mocked him, Asma bint Marwan. Muhammad cried out: “Will no one rid me of this daughter of Marwan?” One of the companions, Umayr ibn Adi, went to her house that night, where he found her sleeping next to her children. The youngest, a nursing babe, was in her arms. But that didn’t stop Umayr from murdering her and the baby as well.
Muhammad commended him:
You have done a great service to Allah and His Messenger, Umayr! (Ibn Ishaq, 674-676)
Then there was Ka’b bin Al-Ashraf. Muhammad again asked his companions: “Who is willing to kill Ka’b bin Al-Ashraf who has hurt Allah and His Apostle?” One of the Sahaba, Muhammad bin Maslama, answered: “O Allah’s Apostle! Would you like that I kill him?”
Muhammad said that he would.
Muhammad bin Maslama said: “Then allow me to say a (false) thing (i.e. to deceive Kab).” Muhammad responded: “You may say it.” Muhammad bin Maslama duly lied to Ka’b, luring him into his trap, and murdered him. (Bukhari 5.59.369)
In light of such accounts, Sandra Solomon has every reason to be concerned, and Canadian authorities would do well to worry also. What are the implications of allowing into North America large numbers of people who don’t believe in the freedom of expression, an indispensable prerequisite of any free society? No Canadian or American authorities appear to be considering that question.
Nor are they pondering the fact that the Toronto mosque member was wrong when he said that Sandra Solomon was “free to choose her faith.” In reality, the death penalty for apostasy is part of Islamic law. It’s based on the Qur’an:
They wish you would disbelieve as they disbelieved so you would be alike. So do not take from among them allies until they emigrate for the cause of Allah. But if they turn away, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them and take not from among them any ally or helper. (Qur’an 4:89)
A hadith depicts Muhammad saying:
Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him. (Bukhari 9.84.57)
The death penalty for apostasy is part of Islamic law according to all the schools of Islamic jurisprudence, even today. Both Sunni and Shi’ite. Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the most renowned and prominent Muslim cleric in the world, has stated:
The Muslim jurists are unanimous that apostates must be punished, yet they differ as to determining the kind of punishment to be inflicted upon them. The majority of them, including the four main schools of jurisprudence (Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi’i, and Hanbali) as well as the other four schools of jurisprudence (the four Shiite schools of Az-Zaidiyyah, Al-Ithna-‘ashriyyah, Al-Ja’fariyyah, and Az-Zaheriyyah) agree that apostates must be executed.
Qaradawi also once famously said:
If they had gotten rid of the apostasy punishment, Islam wouldn’t exist today….

Jihadi John says
Don’t worry. I’m declaring a fatwa against killing those who criticize Islam.
Angel Gabriel says
I can’t wait for the day when the MS media finally talks about Islam honestly. I know — I will probably be waiting a long time.
Political correctness kills.
Pastor C says
Please don’t hold your breath; that is, unless you’re suicidal. THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN! The MSM, whether intentionally or unintentionally, are complicit in promoting the lies Islam propagates.
Islam could never survive nor countenance any kind of open, honest and objective scrutiny because it is a false religion. That which is false is indefensible.
Christianity, on the other hand, has never had that problem, inherently, because it is the truth of God.
Jesus declared it to be so. “I am the way, the truth and the life. No one will come to the Father except through Me.” (John 14:6) He, also, declared, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” (John 8:12)
Islam could never even exist without the benefit of threats being imposed upon others. That is why it demands, through sheer coercion, submission at the point of a sword.
That is, also, why they practice taquiyya; which permits its practitioners to lie about anything as long as it, erroneously, validates or promotes their faith. It has never, since the 7th century, been able to stand on it own without its adherents having the crutch of violence to lean on, rendering all who oppose or disagree docile to its dictatorial and despotic demands.
BlueRaven says
If I was an X-Muslim I would have known two basic facts : it is a norm for any Imam to lie and that leaving Evil Cult Islam result in punishment by death … “I am standing here in your mosque today, asking for you to show me the tolerance you ask of all Canadians. To accept me for whom I am and the free choices I made to be something other than Muslim.”
A better question would be: I am an X-Muslim, I like to know if there is anything changed in Quran (verse bla bla) about leaving Islam other than death, if yes, what?
It is clear Imam will lie – at least his typicality will get an exposure to the world.

“Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him. ”
I wonder how the islamic apologists would be able to wiggle out of explaining this hadith.
Angemon says
They claim it was meant for a specific time and location and/or that it was only applicable to former muslims who would then take up arms against muhammad.
mortimer says
Sandra Solomon is under death threats from Muslims from all over Canada. She proves that TOLERANCE IS A ONE-WAY STREET with Islam.
When will the idiot PM Selfie Zoolander and his trained seals realize that ISLAM IS INTOLERANT BY DESIGN?
There is no tolerance from the Islamic side. Islam feigns tolerance until it gains full power and then the pretence of Islamic tolerance disappears.
Blangwort says
I’m sure the good lady knows that she can’t leave Islam without death threats. I strongly recommend moving to another place, preferably one where she is allowed to purchase a gun and get proficient using it.
Many cities south of the border would be happy to have her. And given what she’s done and what she faces, I doubt that there would be much difficulty attaining US citizenship.
Just don’t go anywhere near Dearborne Michigan….
Buford says
I hope nothing happens to her but when you are dealing with Barbaric Scumbags all bets are off it is time people wake up & smell the roses these creatures have no intention of assimilating the kiss a Muslims butt theory will not help they need to be kicked out period.
john spielman says
I understand that the police are investigating this mosque and imam for “hate speech”: certainly we MUST allow criticism of any religion and religious figure- esp the pedophile false prophet muhammed who was also a mass murderer thief LIAR and sexual pervert, BUT advocating a violence against anyone or group is a punishable offense!
Susan B says
On March 4 there are peaceful protest at city halls across Canada and I believe the same is happening around the world. I will be going to the one in Toronto and am trying to let people know in case they are interested. M103 is Sharia law and does not belong in any civilized country.

Hi Robert, hero of the counter-jihad. I had a chance at C-PAC to mention to Clare Lopez after her great panel appearance, that I was disappointed you and many of the other heroes of the counter-jihad were not doing a panel at C-PAC. She said she had been with you a couple days before and had no idea why the Conservative Union didn’t organize such a panel this year. Can you suggest ways we could make it happen next year?

First – The Donald must ban, totally ban this book they call Curan or Koran, This book are even worse then Hitlers Mein Kampf… as this Hitler just wanted to kill Jews, The Koran says that a real muslim need to kill all others that do not accept to be a muslim… Meaning the rest of the world…

“Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him. ”
Is this what Trudeau prays during his mosque prayers?
revereridesagain says
Muslim apologists are using variations on this “your problem is with the Saudi regime” dodge on unsuspecting unbelievers because they know they are by and large ignorant of the history of Islam. In our town last month a hijabed Syrian woman shilling for the “refugees” deflected a question about her elaborate headscarf by claiming that hijab is the invention of Saudi Arabia — which was founded in 1932. Apparently she believed, correctly as it turned out, that the ignorant kuffar would buy her implication that Muslims women were never veiled, anywhere in the world, before that date.
Donald Andre Bruneau says
Sandra Solomon, former Muslim is a very brave lady.
She is doing all Canadians a great favor, an immense service by her protests against M103 and speaking the truth about Islam.
Canadians are beginning to wake up about threat of Islam…thanks to people like Sandra.
