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

UK: Muslim uses $1,200 in welfare benefits to take his family to join the Islamic State

Mar 19, 2017 5:18 pm By Robert Spencer

Non-Muslims paying for the upkeep of Muslims is a Qur’anic dictate:

“Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued” (Qur’an 9:29).

The caliph Umar said the jizya payments from the dhimmis were the source of the Muslims’ livelihood:

“Narrated Juwairiya bin Qudama at-Tamimi: We said to `Umar bin Al-Khattab, ‘O Chief of the believers! Advise us.’ He said, ‘I advise you to fulfill Allah’s Convention (made with the Dhimmis) as it is the convention of your Prophet and the source of the livelihood of your dependents (i.e. the taxes from the Dhimmis.)'” (Bukhari 4.53.388)

Anjem Choudary said in February 2013:

“We are on Jihad Seekers Allowance, We take the Jizya (protection money paid to Muslims by non-Muslims) which is ours anyway. The normal situation is to take money from the Kafir (non-Muslim), isn’t it? So this is normal situation. They give us the money. You work, give us the money. Allah Akbar, we take the money. Hopefully there is no one from the DSS (Department of Social Security) listening. Ah, but you see people will say you are not working. But the normal situation is for you to take money from the Kuffar (non-Muslim) So we take Jihad Seeker’s Allowance.”

“Anjem Choudary disciple ‘fled to Syria to join ISIS with his wife and three children using £1,000 in housing benefits,’”by Luke Barnes, Mailonline, March 19, 2017 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

A former suspect in a gang murder has fled to Syria – after being radicalised in what is allegedly one of Britain’s most secure prisons.

Shahan Choudhury, 30, vanished from his flat in London last year and has since used Twitter to urge other British Muslims to carry out terror attacks in the UK.

His family say he was ‘brainwashed’ after spending 18 months on remand in HMP Belmarsh for allegedly taking part in the stabbing of a 17-year-old.

He has been joined in Syria by his wife and three children, including a baby.

According to the Sunday Times the family’s escape may have been funded by housing benefit payments.

Choudhury’s wife Mehak is alleged to have traveled to Syria in early 2016, a few months after her husband.

The family’s landlady discovered that Mehak had received a monthly housing benefit payment of £1,000 – which she’d failed to pass on as rent.

Shahan Choudhury first came to the police’s attention when he was charged with being part of a gang who stabbed a 17-year-old hospital worker to death over an alleged £15 drug debt.

He was acquitted in 2007 but his family believe he was ‘brainwashed’ by Islamic extremists at HMP Belmarsh.

As soon as he was released he joined the banned al-Muhajiroun (ALM), the hate group led by Anjem Choudary which has called for the implementation of Sharia Law in the U.K.

A relative said: ‘He was just like any other western kid when he went in but by the time he came out he was going on about religion and how the kuffar [non-believers] would all end up in hellfire.’

Mehak was also radicalised halfway through her A-levels, according to her family.

Her father, Mohammed, said: ‘I told police at the time that my daughter was becoming brainwashed and was involved with these people.

‘But they told me there was no evidence of extremism and that, as an adult, she could do what she wanted.’

HMP Belmarsh has become ‘like a jihadi training camp’ according to one former inmate.

He told the Evening Standard: ‘The problem is that Belmarsh is also a holding prison and so young people are brainwashed and indoctrinated and then go out into the wider prison system and create wider Akhi networks.

‘Governors, prison officers and imans [sic] all know about this.’…

    Robert Spencer has quoted the KEY VERSE IN THE KORAN: K.9.29.

    “Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued” (Qur’an 9:29).

    K.9.29 marked the turning point in the career of Mohammed when he declared that henceforth Muslims would live off of the plunder from their victims of raiding, pirating, invasion, robbery, and extortion.

    Non-Muslims could be held up for ransom or attacked and killed to confiscate all they owned. At this point in the hadiths, we read of poor Muslims merely walking up to those they thought were non-Muslims and murdering them to take whatever they had with them. Mohammed reined them in when these bandits started to kill Muslims as well. He told them to make sure they didn’t kill a Muslim. Mohammed did not have such bandits executed. He just admonished them after their murders.

    Anjem Choudary in February 2013 confirmed that Islam is predatory by nature:

    “We are on Jihad Seekers Allowance, We take the Jizya (protection money paid to Muslims by non-Muslims) which is ours anyway. The normal situation is to take money from the Kafir (non-Muslim), isn’t it?”

    PLUNDERING and STEALING from non-Muslims is the ‘normal situation…isn’t it?”

    $1,200 is a bargain to get rid of an entire family of welfare-bludging Muslims.

    The problem, of course, is that Theresa May’s government is in the throes of late-stage Narrative syphilis and will happily welcome Choudhury and his brood BACK into the country to suck on the public-welfare teat.

      Couldn’t agree more. Would happily pay all of them to go back to the Middle East.

        My thoughts exactly–money well spent.

        It’s a lot cheaper than supporting them and their 29 children and 841 grandchildren!

    o moslem stay stubborn in your faith, you shall meet alla. Unless islam is debunked.

      Debunked with the information that Islam meets all of the qualifiers as a cult.

      I’m seeing that more and more now; it needs to become a household discussion subject, and then dropped on our politicians by millions of American citizens.

      Only then will Islam lose its protection and special treatment.

    Good riddance – and if they ever come back, have then stand trial as traitors.

    I guess he keeps that snide grin on his face while he’s raping children.

    Maybe his ISIS visit will take him off planet, permanently.

    I seen the young English girl who had left the country and was living elsewhere and returned to her small town for a visit. Very good looking, wearing a colourful spring type dress and she encountered a protest by the local Islamists. Big long parade, dirty looking bearded men at the head. Burka covered women following behind, I imagine they were women. The men with signs saying Fuck the U.K., Fuck the Police and she wanted to converse as too why they were so unhappy in England. The men ignored her (she got off lucky and was not assaulted physically or sexually) the women said she was a slut because of the way she was dressed. Isnt immigration grand? Our idiot Prime Minister says we would never deport a terrorist. Why would he deport one of his own.
