Has Mr Justice Haddon-Cave ever actually read the Qur’an? Almost certainly not; otherwise he wouldn’t have gone on record with this spectacularly asinine and counterfactual statement.
Is the Qur’an really a book of peace?
“And kill them wherever you find them, and drive them out from where they drove you out; persecution is worse than slaughter. But fight them not by the Holy Mosque until they should fight you there; then, if they fight you, kill them — such is the recompense of unbelievers, but if they give over, surely Allah is all-forgiving, all-compassionate. Fight them until there is no persecution and the religion is Allah’s; then if they give over, there shall be no enmity save for evildoers.” (Qur’an 2:191-193)
“They wish that you should disbelieve as they disbelieve, and then you would be equal; therefore do not take friends from among them, until they emigrate in the way of Allah; then, if they turn their backs, seize them and kill them wherever you find them; do not take for yourselves any one of them as friend or helper.” (Qur’an 4:89)
“This is the recompense of those who fight against Allah and His Messenger, and hasten about the earth to do corruption there: they shall be killed, or crucified, or their hands and feet shall be struck off on opposite sides; or they shall be exiled from the land. That is a degradation for them in this world; and in the world to come awaits them a mighty chastisement.” (Qur’an 5:33)
“When your Lord was revealing to the angels, ‘I am with you; so confirm the believers. I shall cast terror into the hearts of the unbelievers; so strike the necks, and strike every finger of them!” (Qur’an 8:12)
“Fight them, till there is no persecution and religion is all for Allah; then if they give over, surely Allah sees the things they do.” (Qur’an 8:39)
“Make ready for them whatever force and strings of horses you can, to strike terror into the enemy of Allah and your enemy, and others besides them that you know not; Allah knows them. And whatever you spend in the way of Allah shall be repaid you in full; you will not be wronged.” (Qur’an 8:60)
“Then, when the sacred months are over, kill the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them, and confine them, and lie in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they repent, and perform the prayer, and pay the alms, then let them go their way; Allah is All-forgiving, All-compassionate.” (Qur’an 9:5)
“Fight those who believe not in Allah and the Last Day and do not forbid what Allah and His Messenger have forbidden, and do not practice 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)
“Allah has bought from the believers their selves and their possessions against the gift of Paradise; they fight in the way of Allah; they kill, and are killed; that is a promise binding upon Allah in the Torah, and the Gospel, and the Koran; and who fulfils his covenant truer than Allah? So rejoice in the bargain you have made with Him; that is the mighty triumph.” (Qur’an 9:111)
“O believers, fight the unbelievers who are near to you; and let them find in you a harshness; and know that Allah is with the godfearing.” (Qur’an 9:123)
“When you meet the unbelievers, strike their necks, then, when you have made wide slaughter among them, tie fast the bonds; then set them free, either by grace or ransom, till the war lays down its loads. So it shall be; and if Allah had willed, He would have avenged Himself upon them; but that He may try some of you by means of others. And those who are slain in the way of Allah, He will not send their works astray.” (Qur’an 47:4)
Does Islam really forbid terrorism?
“We will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve for what they have associated with Allah of which He had not sent down authority. And their refuge will be the Fire, and wretched is the residence of the wrongdoers.” (Qur’an 3:151)
“When your Lord inspired to the angels, ‘I am with you, so strengthen those who have believed. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieved, so strike upon the necks and strike from them every fingertip.’” (Qur’an 8:12)
“And prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may terrify the enemy of Allah and your enemy and others besides them whom you do not know, whom Allah knows. And whatever you spend in the cause of Allah will be fully repaid to you, and you will not be wronged.” (Qur’an 8:60)
A hadith has Muhammad saying: “I have been made victorious with terror.” (Bukhari 4.52. 220)
“Parsons Green terrorist is jailed for at least 34 years after the judge rules he lied about only being 18,” by Martin Evans, Telegraph, March 23, 2018:
The Parsons Green bomber lied about his age in order to remain in the UK sparking renewed questions over the screening of child migrants.
Iraqi born, Ahmed Hassan, entered Britain illegally three years ago and then applied for asylum, claiming to be a 16-year orphan, who had keen kidnapped by Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (Isil).
Hassan was jailed for life with a minimum of 34-years, after being convicted of attempting to murder dozens of commuters on a packed rush hour train at Parsons Green in south west London.
But the case raises serious questions over the ability of officials to weed out asylum seekers who try to take advantage of the system by claiming to be children.
Two years ago the Government came in for intense criticism when pictures emerged showing applicants who appeared to be much older than 17, claiming to be unaccompanied child migrants.
Home Office officials later suggested they might look older because of the ordeals they had suffered,
But critics have insisted the system is open to exploitation and offers a potential gateway for terrorists to enter the UK.
Mr Justice Haddon-Cave, told Hassan the length of the sentence reflected the fact he did not believe he was only 18 and said he hoped the amount of time he spent in prison would give him the chance to study the Koran properly.
More than 50 people were injured when the bomb partially detonated sending a fireball down the busy carriage of the District Line train last September.
But it is feared scores would have been killed if the device, which was packed with 400g of ‘Mother of Satan’ explosives, had functioned as Hassan had intended.
At his sentencing hearing at the Old Bailey, the judge said: “Your intention that morning was to kill as many members of the British public as possible by planting the IED (improvised explosive device) on a busy commuter Tube train.”
He went on: “You will have plenty of time to study the Koran in Prison… the Koran is a book of peace… Islam forbids breaking the law of the land…..Islam forbids terror.”
Hassan came to Britain hidden in the the back of a lorry in Autumn of 2015, around the time the government relaxed the rules on accepting asylum applications from unaccompanied minors.
He was found a place in a Barnardo’s children’s home and made a formal asylum application to the Home Office in January 2016.
Hassan told officials his parents had been killed and he had been kidnapped by Isil and trained to kill by them….

Andy, I wish you success from America, but I do not have much hope that most of your countrymen really prize free speech to the extent that they would support a ‘First Amendment’ style freedom of speech & thought. I think that Europeans are far too politically correct (especially with respect to the followers of the religion of peace) to protect thought and speech. After all, words can hurt people’s feelings (and as a side issue but important nonetheless, everyone knows guns can just jump up and kill people). But Brits have little recourse now against the government now that it has criminalized your speech and thought – they have caved to the mullahs and disarmed you! Good luck becoming a free people once again – probably ain’t gonna happen.

@Michael Copeland , yep a non muslim telling a muslim what his faith should be, a non sequitur.
Jayell says
Correction. A non-muslim telling a muslim what he (from a Christian background) thinks islam ought to be – which of course has absolutely nothing to do with islam. And assuming the Qur’an to be the sequel to the New Testament from the fanciful sales blurb on the back of a cheap paperback edition.
Ezra says
Yes, when we have corrupt judges with ignorant ideas of history we get stupid pronouncements from the bench.

roger woodhouse says
This old goat posing as a judge is typical of many in the establishment.Totally ignorant about the ‘religion of peace’and of course anxious not to tread to harshly on any muslim who might be ‘offended’This sums up the vice like grip we in Britain are in.Led and ruled by people who never take the trouble to ‘test ‘their opinions by listening to any opposition to their mindsets but are happy to pontificate on issues they refuse to try and grasp but are of real concern to the public at large.Time is fast running out for this ruling elite.
Philip says
What a bunch of idiots! Clearly the judge was being sarcastic! Look it up—with a Dictionary (it’s a book). The important point is that the judge did not just slap they killer’s wrist as is occurring so much more often these days or allow some attorney to try to make up some excuse for the killer’s deadly, psychotic behavior.
Gjallarhornet says
The jugde on the other hand must be very busy. He has obviously never had time to *read* the koran. If he had had the time on his hands to read it, he would never say such silly things, like stating it’s a book of peace. How about long, extended holidays this summer? Then he can read up on the koran and islam and come back with a correct view and make himself useful. Have a good trip!
Michael Copeland says
Just Chapter 9 will do, after understanding that it over-rules and “abrogates” all those nice peaceful verses elsewhere. He can even find it online, at no cost at corpus.quran.com.
Gjallarhornet says
Yes, this can be done during Easter. The judge should get right to it. Just give him an order to do so, there is nothing delusional British upper class liberals hate more than being barked orders at. Barking orders? “That is our job”, would be the response.
mortimer says
Agree with Copeland. Chapter 9 is the TURNING-POINT chapter and GAME-CHANGER which abrogates the preceding chapters.
Chapter 9, however does require explanation to provide HOW IT IS CANONICALLY UNDERSTOOD by the CONSENSUS of Islamic scholars in whose following are the JIHADISTS.
The only difference of opinion Muslims have about the JIHAD COMMANDS is one of SPEED and URGENCY.
‘Moderate’ Muslims want a slow-motion jihad. ‘Radical’ Muslims want an accelerated pace of jihad. That is the only difference in interpretation.
Terry Gain says
If the Koran is peaceful, perhaps Justice Haddon-Cave (to Islam) can explain Islam’s history of conquest and why Muslims have been misinterpreting the Koran for 1400 years. Bloody fool.

No doubt Sir Charles Anthony Haddon-Cave is quite learnèd in British law, but if so, that says to me that he has NOT SPENT SEVERAL YEARS reading the almost 2 MILLION words of the PRIMARY ISLAMIC SOURCE TEXTS and canonical commentaries.
Without reading the PRIMARY ISLAMIC SOURCE TEXTS and commentaries, by what AUGURY, I pray, does the learnèd judge DEDUCE, SURMISE, ELICIT, SUPPOSE or GUESS that Islam is a religion of peace? Or that the Koran teaches peace?
I maintain that Sir Charles CANNOT guess what is in the ISLAMIC SOURCE TEXTS without actually READING THEM.

Winston says
According to Religion of Peace website there have been 32,774 deadly attacks since 9/11.
Suppose a documentary film was produced which examined each attack for 5 minutes a viewer of the film would need to set aside 163,870 minutes, that is to say 2,731 hours in order to watch it.
In other words such a documentary film would be 113 days in length. That doesn’t sound very peaceful to me.

If it might ever be imagined that Mr. Justice Haddon-Cave would take Mortimer’s excellent advice (see earlier comment) and bother to study the Koran himself, he would recognize that what he is prescribing is known as prison dawah and will simply create more jihadists. But then that would be way too much trouble and probably cause his equally Islamophilia-blinded colleagues to frown at him, so indeed why bother?
After all, it’s not as if the encroaching ruination of British civilization by Muslims will ever affect him, or any family or children he might have…..

Chand says
“Is the Qur’an really a book of peace?”
Well, yes and no.
It was written during times of war and strife in barbaric Arabia, fourteen centuries ago, by a former caravan raider turned Messenger of God, who was no non-violent, forgiving soul like the previous Messenger Jesus Christ.
Yet most Muslims live, or at least try to live, peaceful lives. How come?
How audacious of them to defy the Messenger sent by God!
Battles fought in Arabia in the 7th century have no relevance for anything or anyone today. The passages on war and killing in the Koran are just that too. They were only referring to the state of affairs prevailing THEN.
But also the Koran is a manual for jihad if war comes to Muslims.
Most Muslims do not want war and horror, like most people. But if war does happen some of them will be inspired and led by the Koran.
As an atheist my only hope is that all religions will be transcended by humankind in the future. Including Islam.
Phew! That would be a relief.
But targeting only Islam is futile.
Because that is exactly what the Koran preaches……………..”you are the true believers of God and you will be attacked by infidels just because of that. So fight!”
LeftisruiningCanada says
“But if war does happen some of them will be inspired and led by the Koran.”
Getting a bit tricksy there Chand….not only are you seeming to blame Jihad only upon the actions of the unbelievers, but you are also not being completely up front about how the idea of ‘war’ is thought of by muslims.
Your idea of what are relevant today or not, may not be shared by many influential leaders of islam.
If the New Testament was full of commands to kill and mutilate the unbelievers, then you would have a point about not only targeting islam. But, the life of Christ is so far above the reproaches that mohammad rightfully deserves, that there is no comparison.
The fact still remains that Christianity followed produces better people who are less violent and more forgiving.
The opposite is the case for rightly followed islam as manifested by mohammad.

LeftisruiningCanada says:”The fact still remains that Christianity followed produces better people who are less violent and more forgiving.”
Agreed LeftisruiningCanada. But the key word here is ‘followed’. Many pretend to follow Christ but maintain their instincts, following their genetically given reptilian/competitive brains.
LeftisruiningCanada says
A Christianized culture tends to lead to better behaved non believers, because the basic assumptions of Christian morality set the standard.
Even if people never even read a word of the NT, the ideas that you should ‘love your neighbor as yourself” or ‘turn the other cheek’ are the accepted foundation of what everybody deep down thinks is “the right thing to do.”
Telling the truth, fidelity in marriage, not stealing things and not physically attacking people are all deeply rooted in Christ himself, even for those who don’t follow him.
Mohammads example is somewhat different.

The dishonest Chand wrote:
“Is the Qur’an really a book of peace?”
Well, yes and no.
It was written during times of war and strife in barbaric Arabia, fourteen centuries ago, by a former caravan raider turned Messenger of God, who was no non-violent, forgiving soul like the previous Messenger Jesus Christ.
………………………….
Chand would have us believe that Muhammed was a “messenger” of God, just like Jesus. This is, actually, the Muslim view–that Christ has nothing to do with Christianity.
He also would have us believe that the Muhammed was on violent because he lived in a violent period. But this is false–Jesus lived in a violent time; that did not make him violent.
And while dark ages Arabia was a rather barbaric place, it is notable that save for a few skirmishes and caravan raids that all the violence in the Qur’an was *perpetrated by Muslims themselves*. The only full-scale wars are Muslim. So Chand has this exactly backwards–Islam is not violent because of the age; the age was violent because of Islam.
More:
Yet most Muslims live, or at least try to live, peaceful lives. How come?
How audacious of them to defy the Messenger sent by God!
………………………….
What absolute rot. Firstly, an increasing number of Muslims are *anything* but peaceful, as the skyrocketing rates of Jihad terror prove every day. Then, Chand hopes that we are unfamiliar with the concept of “Fard Ayn” and “Fard Kalifa”. In most cases, not every Muslim has to wage violent Jihad (Fard Ayn) so long as there are those in commumnity who *are* waging violent Jihad (Fard Kalifa). Most Muslim scholars consider this a period of Fard Kalifa.
Then, how many Muslims actually condemn the waging of violent Jihad? Very few.
More:
Battles fought in Arabia in the 7th century have no relevance for anything or anyone today. The passages on war and killing in the Koran are just that too. They were only referring to the state of affairs prevailing THEN.
………………………….
Utter claptrap. The Qur’an itself says that the Qur’an and the model of the “Prophet” Muhammed is *good for all time*. Chand must know this.
More:
But also the Koran is a manual for jihad if war comes to Muslims.
Most Muslims do not want war and horror, like most people. But if war does happen some of them will be inspired and led by the Koran.
………………………….
“If war comes to Muslims”–what rot. Chand is pretending that it is the mean old Infidels who are waging war on Muslims for no reason–instead of what is *really* happening–that Muslims are attacking Infidels all over the world.
More:
As an atheist my only hope is that all religions will be transcended by humankind in the future. Including Islam.
Phew! That would be a relief.
But targeting only Islam is futile.
………………………….
More bulls*t–pretending that all religions are violent, and that Islam is no different. This is obvious claptrap–the Qur’an itself teaches the violent tageting of unbelivers.
More:
Because that is exactly what the Koran preaches……………..”you are the true believers of God and you will be attacked by infidels just because of that. So fight!”
………………………….
Firstly, this Qur’anic “quote” appears to be made up–I can find no such actual verse.
Moreover, what do such “attacks” consist of? Per the Qur’an itself, the mere existence of Infidels living freely and not forced to submit to Islam is an “attack” on Muslims–Fitna. No doubt the dishonest Chand is well aware of this.
Chand says
gravenimage says:”More bulls*t–pretending that all religions are violent, and that Islam is no different. This is obvious claptrap–the Qur’an itself teaches the violent tageting of unbelivers.”
All peoples following all religions have targeted others, labeling them as heretics, unbelievers, pagans, idolators, witches, infidels, apostates, racially inferior, spiritually corrupt, etc.
Christians have done so and so have Muslims.
Chand says
gravenimage says: “Then, how many Muslims actually condemn the waging of violent Jihad? Very few.”
Condemn?
Muslims themselves are facing the major brunt of jihadi terrorism. It is the Muslims who are going thru hell trying to defeat the Jihadis everywhere.

They condemn I’m sure. Right after they somehow manage to escape death and fire and live another day……………………………….

“But for those who disbelieve,garments of fire will be cut out for them,boiling fluid will be poured down their heads,whereby that which is in their bellies and their skins too will be melted
And for them are hooked rods of iron”
Koran 22 v 19-21
There are a number of different forms of violence there…Did francis miss some of the koran?
If somebody said that ” authentic Nazism and the proper reading of mein kampf are opposed to every form of anti-semitism” you would know that they knew nothing about the subject matter.
Exactly like francis and most dhimmiwits;they refuse to believe the evidence.

Is the Qur’an really a book of peace?
Of course it is, just as Mein Kampf is a book of peace.
The judge probably did not read either books but has never the less strong opinions about them in accordance with the prevailing paradigm in society. That is how it works everywhere.
I read both books and in my opinion the Qur’ans numerous divine demands for unrestricted open ended warfare against all unbelievers are not found in Hitler’s political manifest. Here the political aim is to conquer new land in east and topple the Marxist regime in the Soviet Union. And of course to make the conditions for the German Jews so unbearable that they by themselves immigrate and leave a clean Arian state behind.
Nazism died with Hitler and the collapse of The Third Reich, but Islamic warfare – Jihad – against the unbelievers will continue as long as there is one unbeliever left, or until the vast majority of Muslims conclude that the belligerent verses of the Qur’an were only valid for Muslims living at the time of the Prophet and are not binding for Muslims in this day and age.

Nice little whitewash of the Holocaust there, I see…
Jan Aage Jeppesen says
If you can find one word about genocide or Holocaust in Mein Kamp I like to hear about it.
At the most you can say that the possibility of genocide was not ruled out and could be an implicit consequence of racial social Darwinism – a strong element in National Socialism.
Let me suggest you read “The Al Qaeda Reader and Mein Kampf” (2007) by Raymond Ibrahim.
Nazism became radicalized as war broke out in September, 1939. One week before the attack on Poland Hitler unformed his army commanders:
“I have issued the command – and I’ll have anybody who utters but one word of criticism executed by a firing squad – that our war aim does not consist in reaching certain lines, but in the physical destruction of the enemy. Accordingly, I have placed my death-head formation in readiness – for the present only in the East – with orders to them to send to death mercilessly and without compassion, men, women, and children of Polish derivation and language. Only thus shall we gain the living space (Lebensraum) which we need. Who, after all, speaks today of the annihilation of the Armenians?”
Not the Muslim Turks, thats for sure and they are still in denial.
That Hitler got inspiration from the Turkish genocide of the Armenians seems evident.
A similar radicalization can be found in the Quran between the first Meccan and later Medina chapters. The Mecca Quran was all about tolerance, tranquility, spirituality, acceptance, and inner cleansing through submission to the word of Allah. This earlier part of the Quran also dictated many of the rules that individual Muslims must perform and abide in their day-to-day lives. Jihad and the extermination of Jews are introduced in the Medina chapters.
So I am not trying to whitewash Nazism or downplay the Holocaust. But I will say that the Muslims handled the Jews much smarter than the Nazis by forcing them to submission as dhimmies and pay jizya to avoid being killed by Jihad. The Nazis killed the golden goose and that is plain stupid.
Robert Spencer says
In reality, Hitler wrote in Mein Kampf about the eradication of the Jews from Europe.
LeftisruiningCanada says
Mien Kampf contains many references to Jews being “bubonic plague” “cancer” “black death” and being responsible for every ill, supposed or real, that troubled Germany and the world.
And that was written in 1924-7, depending which volume we mean.
Though not apparently anti semitic in any noticeable way prior to reaching Vienna in his teens, Hitler certainly can be seen calling for the physical extermination of Jews from 1922 onwards:
“”If I am ever really in power, the destruction of the Jews will be my first and most important job. As soon as I have power, I shall have gallows after gallows erected, for example, in Munich on the Marienplatz-as many of them as traffic allows. Then the Jews will be hanged one after another, and they will stay hanging until they stink. They will stay hanging as long as hygienically possible. As soon as they are untied, then the next group will follow and that will continue until the last Jew in Munich is exterminated. Exactly the same procedure will be followed in other cities until Germany is cleansed of the last Jew!”

My reply explaining my position was deleted by the moderator. I got the impression that JW advocated free speech and open discussion. I see now that this is not the case, and will consequently not contribute with my views to site. They are not wanted.
JW are in risk of becoming what you rightly accuse your opponents of, a closed circle of dogmatic thinkers not tolerating even the slightest deviation from established dogma.
Robert Spencer says
In reality, nothing was deleted. The moderation thing is automated. I’ll find your comment and put it up. Calm down.
Jan Aage Jeppesen says
Dear Robert Spencr,
My comment was deleted, and the error is human because the automated moderation is controlled by an algorithm made by a man – a programmer.
Could I ask you to change the algorithm controlling the automated moderation so my comments are shown without awaiting moderation, sometimes for a day?
What have I done to deserve this special treatment?
As to your comment:
“In reality, Hitler wrote in Mein Kampf about the eradication of the Jews from Europe”, I disagree and ask you to document your claim with reference to page number and quoting the paragraph in which Hitler demanded eradication – meaning killing – the European Jews.
The most belligerent statement about the Jews I could find in Mein Kampf reads:
“Hence today I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator: by defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord.”
Mass extermination of Jews is not a defensive act but an act of aggressive warfare.
From 1933 the aim of the defensive policy was to make the conditions for the German Jews so harsh and unbearable the Jews immigrated by themselves. Until 1941, it was Nazi policy to get Jews out of Germany and the territory under German control by emigration – at first voluntary and later forced. About 150,000 emigrated from Germany between 1933 and 1938, but this was considered too slow by radicals in the Nazi ranks. Adof Eichmann also used terror to encourage Jews to leave. Thus, with its ruthless bureaucratic efficiency to help, his system contributed to the forced emigration of over 50,000 Jews within five months. His bosses were so impressed, they set up offices in Berlin and Prague modelled on his system.
By 1st of August 1938 Eichman was appointed to run the Jewish emigration office.
First time Hitler talked about annihilation of the Jews was in a speech in parliament on 30th January 1939 warning he Jews of consequences of war:
“If the international Jewish financiers in and outside Europe should succeed in plunging the nations once more into a world war, then the result will not be the Bolshevizing of the earth and thus a victory of Jewry, but the annihilation of the Jewish race in Europe!.”
I rest my case.

Problem with England is they never have had the right to life , liberty and pursuit of happiness.
They also have no 1st Amendment to think or say what they want, and they have no 2nd Amendment right to protect themselves.
This lack of freedom stunts the human brain and it becomes more susceptible to Islamic doctrine.

Sigh, You all cannot see the forest for the trees. Every “verse” cited PROOVES the judge correct as well as the lying-but-unintentional-truth-telling it’s-slime filth. The “peace” they claim to is the Peace Of The Grave. Now does it make sense? MLK Jr made reference to this, now didn’t he?
