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

Robert Spencer in PJ Media: What a Jihadist in Canada Just Revealed About Islamic ‘Tolerance’

Nov 19, 2017 1:51 pm By Robert Spencer

A woman who tried to murder people with a golf club and a knife in a Canadian Tire store appeared in court Friday and was furiously defiant. My latest in PJ Media:

Rehab Dughmosh, a Muslim woman who tried to murder people with a golf club and a knife in a Canadian Tire store last June, appeared in court Friday and was furiously defiant:

Damn your legislation, damn your nationality, go to hell. Hey you infidels, I do not worship what you worship.

In saying this, she inadvertently provided us infidels with some useful information about Islam’s legendary tolerance. Dughmosh was quoting chapter 109 of the Qur’an.

Chapter 109 is an early Meccan sura — that is, a section of the Qur’an that Muslims believe dates from the early portion of Muhammad’s prophetic career. In Mecca, he was solely a preacher of religious ideas, not a military or political leader, as he became later in Medina.

Indeed, this chapter of the Qur’an is usually presented as an example of the tolerance of Islam.

Here it is in its entirety:

Say, ‘O disbelievers, I do not worship what you worship. Nor are you worshippers of what I worship. Nor will I be a worshipper of what you worship. Nor will you be worshippers of what I worship. For you is your religion, and for me is my religion.

But in her court appearance, Rehab Dughmosh was not sweetly quoting it as a sign of her tolerance. She was spitting it out as part of her repudiation of Canadian law and her demand to be tried only under Sharia — where she would be found not guilty, as war on infidels is mandated in the Qur’an and Sunnah.

At a previous court appearance in June, Dughmosh exclaimed (through an Arabic interpreter, of course):

I meant to harm those people. I reject all counsel here. I only believe in Islamic Sharia law. I would like to revoke my Canadian citizenship that I received. I don’t want to have any allegiance to you.

This is because she doesn’t worship what the infidel Canadians worship; she worships Allah alone, which makes her “the best of people” (Qur’an 3:110).

And she refuses to be judged by the standards of the unbelievers, who are the “most vile of created beings” (Qur’an 98:6).

According to most Islamic scholars, the Qur’an passage that Dughmosh quoted Friday was revealed at a time when the Muslims were a small, weak, embattled band, and feeling threatened by the pagan Quraysh tribe. It was a plea for tolerance for the Muslims, not a magnanimous granting of tolerance to an opposition group.

The classic Qur’an commentator al-Wahidi, however, explains that this sura was a rejection of an invitation from the Quraysh:

Come follow our religion and we will follow yours. You worship our idols for a year and we worship you Allah the following year. In this way, if what you have brought us is better than what we have, we would partake of it and take our share of goodness from it; and if what we have is better than what you have brought, you would partake of it and take your share of goodness from it.

Muhammad rejected the offer:

Allah forbid that I associate anything with Him.

In any case, another classic Qur’an commentary, the Tafsir al-Jalalayn, says that this sura was revealed before Muhammad “was commanded to wage war” against idolators. It does not therefore teach tolerance over the obligation to wage war against non-Muslims and to subjugate them under the rule of Islamic law.

Likewise, the Egyptian Islamic scholar Muhammad al-Ghazali — who is often cited as a reformist — writes ominously in his Journey Through the Qur’an about the limits of tolerance in his commentary on this sura:

Oppressing Islam and denying it the right to life cannot be tolerated. It must be explicitly stated that blood will continue to flow until this evil desire is removed and the power of Islam is restored and its Shari’a protected and its complete implementation guaranteed. Do the oppressors understand? (Emphasis added)…

    Rehab? Far beyond this. Strip her of her citizenship and deport her immediately, after some jail time, that is. This is a positive case in that her comments are in court records.

    • Sons of Liberty says

      Exactly, David ! DEPORT HER and her family ! She will strike again because she despises the people who invited her into Canada.

      Yes, but you know the Leftist Canadian government will not deport the people that they have brought in to replace White Canadians. The Left is pursuing a genocidal policy towards Whites and Muslims are one of their many weapons against Whites. It is past the time that Whites should unite to preserve our race, our heritage, and our countries. Never vote for a Democrat or a liberal no matter how bad the Republican or conservative is. Treasoncrats will continue to engage in the war against Whites, no matter how nice the candidate appears to be.

    Muhammad rejected the offer:

    Allah forbid that I associate anything with Him.
    ==UNQUOTE==

    The text here appears to be garbled. Is it Muhammad’s words that “Allah forbid that I associate anything with Him”? The past-tense form of “forbid” is “forbad(e)”. Is the “forbid” here an imperative (Allah, please prohibit me from associating anything with you), a subjunctive (May Allah prohibit me from associating anything with you), or what?

    Is a Muslim not supposed to associated *anything* with Allah? Not power? Not omniscience? Not goodness? Is the nature of Allah supposed to remain a complete mystery to a Muslim? Where do these quotations come from? Quran or hadith passages? Citations, please!

    “I would like to revoke my Canadian citizenship that I received.”

    That can presumably be arranged.

      Yes please. The next Conservative government will revoke hers and the passports of many others if Canuckistan is still standing in two years.

      Our Canadian citizenship is no longer worth the paper it is written on, Jihadi, Little Potato has made that evident. We will get rid of this Traitor the next election. No right -minded Canadian can truly believe and go along with this crap other than his Cabinet, who have absolutely no credibility or balls.

    • Del says

      Nov 20, 2017 at 12:31 pm

      Watch Muslim pandering idiot Trudeau refuse to grant her wish of cancelling her citizenship. He is an arrogant enough prick to think he can force someone to be a Canadian.

    Put her on a plane back to some hell hole in Middle Easterner, goat banging, horse raping, honor killing ,child molesting, grave Aunt raping and I think I could go on for days describing Mohammed prescribe behavior the perfect man from his Hadiths. Yes countries were men are men ,woman are killed over nothing , goat and sheep keep as girl friends , the threat of rape does not end at death that is the place to immigrate to.

    Let’s all buy a one-way airplane ticket for Rehab Dughmosh with the understanding she will never return… naturally AFTER she finishes her two-year jail sentence.

    Simple forthright citations of the Koran and living implementations of its words just before your eyes and ears are by the inherent and inerrant logic of infidels in the West not believed.

    Ah, but lest we forget: this is NORMAL for them!

    Evil, murder, butchery, sexual immorality, abuse of every form, terrorism, etc. all in the name of
    pious ‘islam’! Doesn’t the “piety” just ‘kill’ you?!

    • Lydia says

      Nov 19, 2017 at 7:56 pm

      That should read “pious” islam.

      When it comes to their version of “piety” (murder, terrorism, etc.); the “piety” never ends!

    Hey Rehab Dughmosh,

    God is Love. I worship God. I am not an infidel. You either love God or you don’t. God gave us free choice. God will not demand your love. That defeats the very nature of love. Love must be a choice. You cannot scare people into loving. That is not love, it is submission. God doesn’t want slaves. God wants people to freely choose love.

    You are correct. You do not worship what I worship.

    ….that is why you don’t have love.

    God is Love.

    “Whoever believes in the Son of God accepts this testimony. Whoever does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because they have not believed the testimony God has given about his Son. And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.” (1 John 5:10-12)

    If we in America listen closely we’d here the messages spoken by these Islamic attacks and heed them for the sovereignty of our nation. Islam is and never will be a Friend inside our nation. So here’s a thought:Mosques are a symbol of conquest within any nation once they are built. They may fly an American flag and that to is a symbol of disguise to seem harmless: if these mosques wanted to assimilate into our American culture they would not be teaching “FIQH” aka sharia law. Sharia Law dictates everything a Muslim must do to adhere to the contents of sharia law: from bathroom rituals to sex rituals and yes to jihad.

    Jihad means to wage war, never forget that its taught from an early age to hate all that is not Islamic, one is either the fighter or supporter. Basic rule: as you don’t know who’s a jihad fighter or a jihad supporter the safest rule of thought is never ever trust a Muslim.

    On Jihad: Reliance of the Traveller: Islamic Sacred Law, Chapter o9.0 titled Jihad. It also cover the above mentioned rituals.
