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

Iraq: 80-year-old man prays, starts to walk out of mosque, is murdered by the Islamic State

Sep 5, 2018 11:31 am By Robert Spencer

This proves that the Islamic State (ISIS) isn’t Muslim, right? Otherwise, why would they kill Muslims praying in mosques? The Qur’an forbids Muslims to kill other Muslims (4:92), but the Islamic State considers Muslims who don’t accept its authority to be apostates, and hence lawfully to be killed under Islamic law.

“Iraq: IS attack on mosque kills one, injures 3,” MENAFN, September 3, 2018 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

(MENAFN) Police declared that one person has died and three more were injured after a suspected Islamic State group jihadists attacked people getting out a mosque north of Baghdad….

The officer added: “The man, aged 80, had just finished praying (and was leaving the mosque) when the jihadists opened fire at him.”

“Three other people were wounded in the shooting.”

    Imagine if a muslim accidently started praying in ..HEBREW… in a mosque,a language it seems allah doesn’t relate to,since he can only communicate in 7th century Arabic.muslims can only pray to allah in Arabic.Hebrew is out.
    {..that allah only communicates in Arabic is funny when you realize that he claims to have written the Bible (koran 3:3):the Torah..which is in HEBREW,and the Gospel..which is written in Greek,Russian….and EVERY known language..}

    Imagine the uproar.Imagine if Moses and Jesus visited a mosque and they started praying to the Actual God in Hebrew or Aramaic.

    Imagine the uproar,the rage,the insane violence from the devout muslims..offended at the insult to their linguistically-challenged god,allah…who can only be spoken to in 7th century Arabic.How dare anyone speak to allah in a language other than 7th century Arabic!

    Moses;{Hebrew} Oh God of Israel….hear my prayer.

    GOD{Hebrew} I hear ya Moshe

    allah{7th cent Arabic} what’s he sayin’..what’s he sayin’..what’s that guy saying??

    GOD{Hebrew}that,allah,is My JEWISH prophet Moses.

    allah:…………………..?

    GOD{sigh]{… 7th century Arabic}oh verily,lo and behold,that’s Moses MY Jewish prophet.

    allah{7th cent Arabic}Moses is a ..JEW?Abraham was not a Jew.I thought Moses was a muslim..like Jesus Christ.

    Jesus Christ:{Aramaic} Jesus Christ!Since when is a Jew a muslim,allah?Answer me that, huh?

    allah……………………..???

      When the world has a fake made up religion that appeared on the scene long after Moses, Abraham, Jesus and his Apostles were dead and has stolen words and sayings from the Holy Bible, both the Old and New Treatments, and then mix in pagan rituals, then one can see what a mish mash of ridiculousness Islam has brought to this front along with governments that can’t even find their way even if that “way” has superior lighting.
      Dear God..please save us from ourselves.

        Actually, he didn’t steal from the bible, it wasn’t translated to Arabic until after mohammeds time. He stole from apocryphal stories and the equivalent of bed time stories, which us why so much is flat out wrong. Jay Smith does a nice exploration and take down on youtube. (Jay Smith, Pfander films)

          Muhammed’s stealing from Biblical stories is pretty superficial. More than getting the details wrong or changing them outright, he rejected all of the Bible’s ethical sense.

          Some of this cam from the apocryphal stories he heard, but much of it came from his own warped lack of morals.

    1400 years (and counting) of jihad by some Muslims against another Muslims, each protesting to be the true and only “religion of peace,” trying to enforce their indisputable authority. OH, HOW PEACEFUL! LIKE HELL!

    Every Muslim is a victim, even those who don’t get killed for apostasy fornication homosexuality honor or blasphemy.

      Unfortunately, all too many of them are *victimizers*, as well.

    Those vicious and violent jihadist /Muslim of ISIS even murder other Muslims. There is no limit to their malicious actions of evil. This specific case may be explained that those Muslims who Westerns view as “moderate Muslims” are in the Muslim/ ISIS worldview are believed to be non-devout and non –committed Muslims. The violent jihadists of ISIS even see them as “hypocrites.” Therefore, this explains the jihadist chant of those jihad-minded Muslims of ISIS or other Islamic terror organizations. When they chant out loud “Death to infidels and hypocrites.” Meaning Death to people who and not Muslims and people who are non- jihadist Muslims.

    As for the totally unconscionable, ruthless, vicious actions and murderous are committed by the Muslim terrorists who compose the brutal and deadly jihad entity ISIS to the heinous and deadly extent that the ISIS Muslims even murder other Muslims who do not agree with them, As in this specific case in the above news report. . This may be ,somewhat explained but not excused in the way that the jihadists of ISIS are engaging in the Islamic doctrine of “Muruna” which is the dogma of Islam that teaches committing evil for the greater good is a noble part of the jihad for Islam. This is, in essence, the same type of “philosophy” that the communists had gone by in the twentieth century. That it’s a “good thing “ to commit many evils to obtain a “worker’s paradise.” Likewise, during World War II even the Nazis had this line of thinking.” To express, as in to illustrate this idea, even more, is by using a twenty-first century movie. Near the end of this movie, just before the final defeat of the super-arch –villain General Zod , that super villain said “No matter how brutal and deadly I was I did it for the greater good.” That is the common mindset of many villains including those of ISIS.

      Muruna… Indeed. Today’s U.S. dim party uses that tactic as well…..particularly the fabian socialist dims. Those beady-eyed beasts have all sorts of alarming beliefs, one being that they MUST destroy the entire world system so they can rebuild it into their utopia. They’ve been doing a good job of it, those patient little devils. There are many fabian socialists in high places in business, politics, government, education (The Ford Foundation is helping the fabian socialists destroy the minds of our kids in the “education” system on a global scale. (No ford cars or trucks for me!)

      The previous head of the Federal Reserve, Janet Yellen, is a leader in the fabian socialist klan…… as is her husband. I wonder what they’ve cooked up for us all way up there within the very dark, deep crevices of the Federal Reserve….. Don’t you?

      As they say…… “The ends justify the means.”

    He just wasn’t Islamic enough for ISIS. This is so ludicrous it flies in the face of all reason and the West is letting it come here. Stupid is as stupid does.

    • James Lincoln says

      Sep 5, 2018 at 3:56 pm

      It begs the question of whether or not ISIS is the final form of true Islam. In other words, is it possible that another, even more mind numbingly brutal and evil group will declare that ISIS is not Islamic enough?

      After all, Al Qaeda is not front-page news anymore.

      • Renate says

        What you suggest is quite possible. The fun never ends with Islam.

    but the Islamic State considers Muslims who don’t accept its authority to be apostates, and hence lawfully to be killed ….and who could be anybody

    What actually happened?
    By what logic isis considered that guy to be an apostate

    It goes to say that Islam is such a murderous cult that they find all possible excuses to commit bloody murders. They love to get the blood out and show that they are so powerful to decide the fate of human beings, when they should die or die because there is no choice of to live. They are exactly like serial murderers. The muslims who die at the hands of other muslims are naive and good people. I know a lot of muslims rat about other muslims. I would not be surprised that this man who died had doubts about his let’s say his religion. It was found out and they killed him. Another excuse to get the blood to flow. Like their celebration, Eid I think. Can you imagine they made a Canadian stamp. I think that is the celebration where they torture animals and the streets end up to be river of blood. Yak! Our task is to get rid of evil in this world. Once Islam starts to diminish, we will be able to start using all of these powers that we have because evil prevents us from rising. We will rise and will be more powerful than the devil. Because in the spiritual world, there is no good and no bad, there is the state of being which is an enjoyment in itself.

    The report doesn’t say if the mosque was Sunni Muslim or Shiite Muslim. It’s location “north of Baghdad” suggests that the mosque is staffed and frequented by Shiite Muslims. ISIS is Sunni Muslim and considers Shiites apostates and worthy of death.

    The Qur’an forbids Muslims to kill other Muslims (4:92)
    Robert, you forgot or don’t you know? That Muslims can kill other Muslims if it furthers Islam.
    Sorry I can’t remember from which Sharia law I interpreted this from it was a long time ago.
    Perhaps you can help.

    • gravenimage says

      Of course Robert Spencer knows this. Muslims murder each other all the time, if the Muslims in question are other sect or deemed to be “insufficiently Islamic”. The are declared fair game through the doctrine of Takfir.
