“The child told his mom that when he’s older, he is ‘going to have a cabinet full of guns.'”
Nabila’s lawyer, Leslie Barbara, “told The Post that the courts rarely intervene in the religious upbringing of a child. ‘But if you make a showing that the religious upbringing is detrimental to the child’s well-being, they do intercede,’ she said.”
If Nabila weren’t a Muslim herself, Isam could beat this by claiming “Islamophobia.” He may do so anyway. It works.
“But soon, Isam switched to a more conservative mosque and demanded that his wife — a stylish CrossFit enthusiast — dress more modestly and stop exercising, the filing says.”
A “more conservative mosque”? So Islam has something to do with the oppression of women, and the son’s inclination to violence? But…it’s a religion of peace!
“We are different than Americans. We do not socialize with them.”
Yes, because Muslims are not to take Jews or Christians as friends (Qur’an 5:51).
“By 2012, the filing notes, Isam told Nabila that he wanted to take a second wife.”
That is permitted in Islam, but not in American law. Authorities need to ask themselves how many Muslims in the U.S. are flouting American law regarding polygamy. But they won’t, because that would be “Islamophobic.”
“Isam even told their son that he shouldn’t be playing the saxophone or participating in school plays because ‘it is not permitted in our religion.'”
That is true: Islam forbids instrumental music. But one is usually charged with “Islamophobia” for pointing it out.
“Mom: My ex is teaching our son extremist Muslim views,” by Julia Marsh, New York Post, New York Post, November 27, 2017 (thanks to David):
In a first-of-its-kind case, a New York mom is seeking sole custody of her 11-year-old son — claiming her ex-husband is indoctrinating him with extremist Muslim views.
“My deep concern is that he is radicalizing a beautiful, young, innocent mind; a fragile child,” according to the petition filed by mom Nabila Albarghouthy, 45, of Pleasantville.
The boy’s brainwashing has already prompted an incident that led to a federal probe, the papers allege.
The Westchester County mom said the disturbing incident occurred at the playground of Pleasantville Middle School on Sept. 21, 2016.
“That day, certain students told [her son] that Jesus is God,” the court papers say.
Nabila’s son “responded . . . ‘No — Allah is God’ and that [Allah] is different because ‘I would die for my God and they would not die for their God,’ ” the petition says.
The school principal called local cops, who alerted the Joint Terrorism Task Force. A member of the JTTF told The Post that he investigated the incident but said the boy’s father, Isam Albarghouthy, is not on a watch list.
Another time, the child told his mom that when he’s older, he is “going to have a cabinet full of guns,” according to court papers.
Nabila and her ex, Isam, are now duking it out in court for sole custody of their kids.
Nabila’s lawyer, Leslie Barbara, head of Davidoff Hutcher and Citron’s divorce and family-law practice, told The Post that the courts rarely intervene in the religious upbringing of a child.
“But if you make a showing that the religious upbringing is detrimental to the child’s well-being, they do intercede,” she said.
The warring parents are both American citizens and Mideast immigrants: Nabila, a Palestinian, came to the United States from Israel at age 5, while Isam, 43, emigrated from Jordan at 19.
They married in Minnesota in 1999 and had two children: a girl later that year and a boy in 2006.
But their happy family life changed when Isam was convicted in 2007 of stealing computer equipment from his employer, according to the petition. The family moved to New York so Isam could find work. Nabila took a job as a physician’s assistant at Montefiore Hospital in The Bronx.
But soon, Isam switched to a more conservative mosque and demanded that his wife — a stylish CrossFit enthusiast — dress more modestly and stop exercising, the filing says.
“We are different than Americans. We do not socialize with them,” the dad said, according to Nabila’s petition.
By 2012, the filing notes, Isam told Nabila that he wanted to take a second wife. She refused, and he filed for divorce.
They began sharing custody of their kids, although Isam has only seen their son, she said.
Isam even told their son that he shouldn’t be playing the saxophone or participating in school plays because “it is not permitted in our religion,’’ Nabila said….
Any religion that forbids playing the saxophone is anti-joy and anti-life.

“teaching our son extremist Muslim views”
Those extremist views are stock-in-trade, normative Muslim tenets of their political religion.
Cracks are appearing all over the place as the truth about Islam continues to seep out despite the best efforts of Muslims and leftists.
mortimer says
Not ‘extremist’, but normative.
Most Muslims are not practicing ALL of Islam.
Terry Gain says
Extremist Muslim views!!!!!. And here I thought everything in the Koran was the literal word of God, er Allah.
Jean Terry says
Why come to this country if you don’t socialize with Americans. It is insane He should be deported back to whence he came if he thinks this way.
Benedict says
Migration as Jihad and Jihad as migration.
LeftisruiningCanada says
he should be cast back into the fiery chasm whence he came!
Terry Gain says
His behaviour is not insane. He is spreading Islam. What is insane is letting him into America.
gravenimage says
Pious Muslims are coming here to take over, not to befriend Americans.
Pet Charles says
Bear in mind that this guy is a moderate Muslim (whatever that means). So called moderate Muslims are like dormant volcanoes. They may not be active at this instant but at anytime in the future they can erupt. By the way, what kind of people insists on living in a country r culture among people they despise? Most people would want to move elsewhere or at least live in isolation. It just goes to show the tremendous amount of Middle East hypocrite Muslims pretending to be friends with people who are not Muslim – or at least tolerating them.
Terry Gain says
A moderate Muslim is a Muslim not engaged in Jihad at this moment.
Westman says
…the boy’s father, Isam Albarghouthy, is not on a watch list.”
He is now….
Ashley says
I read this story the other day and came away with mixed feelings.
This is a custody battle. False accusations against the other spouse are not uncommon.
http://www.news12.com/story/36955147/muslim-pleasantville-mother-accuses-ex-husband-of-radicalizing-son
I just don’t trust this woman…
Terry Gain says
Do you trust the husband?
Ashley says
I don’t know, Terry.
Do you trust the mother?
gravenimage says
The things the kid himself is reported as saying are damn disturbing.
LeftisruiningCanada says
“The child told his mom that when he’s older, he is ‘going to have a cabinet full of guns.’”
Something any good kid of a second amendment loving American family could say…..but probably not in this case.
Guest says
What does exercising have to do anything? I see why she left him.
Ashley says
Actually, he filed for the divorce.
I’ve seen way too many estranged/divorced couples go for the jugular when it comes to custody. Poor kid(s) are stuck in the middle.
I’m not saying that is the case here. But we need to face the fact that mom is a Muslim. Acrimonious breakups often spawn outlandish and vicious accusations. Children are often “coached” by one parent to turn on the other parent. It really does become a hot mess.
I can’t take this woman’s accusations against her former husband at face value.
underbed cat says
I also feel this way, but if she is now questioning her religion….after being raised in the doctrine ….this is a sad situation.
mortimer says
Answer to guest: A Muslim husband must give permission to a wife to leave home. Otherwise, she will be in her living room alone for many years… as doctors and social workers affirm.
mortimer says
The father said, “We are different than Americans. We do not socialize with them.”
Exactly. This ESSENTIAL Islamic doctrine (al Walaa wal Baraa) must be practiced by all Muslims, thus creating a de facto ghetto wherever Muslims settle.
Muslims who do not HATE dirty kafirs ‘for the sake of Allah’ do not go to Islamic paradise.
underbed cat says
When a muslim talks about a “radicalization”, disagreeing with her husband’s decision to find a second wife, claims she is a muslim , and is raising a muslim child but now thinks her husband is radicalizing her son and finds a Americian lawyer, when she knows that muslims follow sharia….I find this as a curious situation. If she really does not want to see her son become pious, she may know her husband and her child’s muslim education of the koran is the radicalizing agent….she may be in danger and so could her legal counsel. Hopefully this is not testing the legal system that she is not aware of her religion…and hopefully her attorney is aware of sharia and that her husband could be a threat to both.

I’m sure Americans are looking forward to more single Afghan (Mohammadan) men coming to their shores from the Australian camp.

Frank Anderson says
F.C.I., is there any even remote possibility that “Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer,” could be at play? If they are here, they are easier to monitor, if the effort is made, and a whole lot easier to reach, if anybody is paying attention. From the attacks reported so far, this possibility is probably in the Pollyana realm of fantasy. Monsters will sooner or later be discovered, most after they do what monsters do.
Flavius Claudius Iulianus says
I don’t believe in that tactic. Gaius Julius Caesar used it and it got him killed.
History shows that the best defense against Mohammdism is a good understanding of the enemy (without any delusions), a strongly guarded border and an army at ready.
Frank Anderson says
F.C.I., we agree. But should that “army” be ready or active. War was declared 1400 years ago and has never been “undeclared”. The people who would conquer us would love for us to continue inaction while they continue their attacks at every opportunity.
gravenimage says
I don’t believe we are safer letting in hordes of violent Jihadists.
Frank Anderson says
GI, neither do I. But can we be sure of the fools who let these monsters, present and future, invade us with their evil?
Michael Hariman says
1400 years ago, Muhammad appeared and branded the whole world as kaffirs. He accused Christians, Jews, and all non-Moslems as kaffirs and as the result Islam has been waging religious war against mankind up to this very day.
This Islamic narrative, namely ‘Islam is Monotheism and the rest are kaffirs’, is the cause and source and origin of jihad. It’s a religious slur. Jihad = ‘exterminate the kaffirs’.
And that’s why as long as this Islamic religious slur remains, jihad will continue.
Many non-Moslems make various arguments against Islam and jihad. The seculars argue for freedom of thought and speech. But this is missing the root and cause of the problem.
For Moslems, this religious slur is real. You can say all you want about freedom of thought and speech, but Allah has prescribed the extermination of the infidel [kaffirs]. So who are you going to follow, Allah or the opponents of Islam?
Which is why to counter jihad, mankind needs to wage a religious counter-charge against the Islamic narrative.
Islam is not Monotheism.
Monotheism is more than the confession that God is One, for ‘…even the demons confess that God is One, and they tremble…’
Monotheism is the profession of God Alone. As it is written, ‘…thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thy heart and soul and strength and mind… Him alone shalt thou profess…’ He who professes only [mono] God [Theos] is a Monotheist.
One cannot be a Moslem just by confessing God, but one must also confess Muhammad as prophet. Islam does not make God the sole object of faith, but it makes a creature [Muhammad] an inseparable object of faith together with God. Islam does not profess only [mono] God [Theos]. Islam is not Monotheism.
This is piously expressed in daily thoughts and speeches such as, ‘God and Muhammad know’, ‘God and Muhammad decree’, ‘one must love and profess God and Muhammad’, ‘those who do not profess Muhammad will burn in hell’, ‘one must love Muhammad more than himself, his family, and the whole world’, etc.
From Monotheistic perspective, Islam is shirk [associating a partner with God], kaffir [denial of Monotheism], blasphemy, and heresy.
Contrary to popular belief, Islam is not an Abrahamic religion. The essence of Abrahamic faith is Monotheism.
The core problem is that they profess two objects of faith and make a creature an essential and inseparable object of faith with God.
It’s not what they profess Muhammad as, it’s Muhammad being in their creed. God alone may be the sole object of faith of mankind.
Islam is not Monotheism. It is shirk and kaffir.
Charles says
Ah!
The “religion” founded by Satan himself! Via a Psycopathic child diddler!
What could be more crude, savage, vile or brutal?
God himself, the true God (YHWH) , Will soon put an end to allah’s (Satans) antics!
