Khan said this because Muslim leaders have told parents to keep their children out of school in protest against the changed status of Jammu and Kashmir. But in this he echoes the received view of the entire elite political and media class worldwide. Everyone in any position of power or influence worldwide, with very, very few exceptions, has decided that Islam is a religion of peace that has nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism. 36,000 jihad terror attacks since 9/11, all carried out in the name of Islam and in accord with its teachings, have not dissuaded them. But eventually Islam’s nature will be clear to everyone.
“What terrorists are following is “definitely not Islam”: J&K Guv Advisor Farooq Khan,” OneIndia, September 15, 2019:
Srinagar, Sep 15: Advisor to the Jammu and Kashmir governor, Farooq Khan, asked what type of religion are the terrorists following.
Khan said “it’s definitely not Islam” as threatening people against sending their children to schools is “the biggest disservice to Islam”. He said the terrorists want the public to remain illiterate.
Khan is a former administrator of Lakshwadeep and was brought in as the advisor to the Governor in view of his expertise on Jammu and Kashmir.
Khan has been given the charge of school education among other portfolios.
“What type of religion are they (terrorists) following. It’s definitely not Islam. The holy book begins with the word ‘ikra’ which means recite or to read…I wonder what type of Islam are these people preaching. It can be anything but not that,” Khan told PTI.
Asking children not to attend classes and warning parents against sending their wards to schools is the biggest disservice to Islam, Farooq Khan said.
His response came in the wake of situation in the valley where posters have appeared in Srinagar warning people to keep their children away from schools after the Centre abrogated Jammu and Kashmir’s special status last month.
“The terrorists want the public to remain illiterate so that they can control their mind,” the advisor….
Jaladhi says
Islam is religion of terror and it has survived only because of terror or it would have cast aside in the dustbin of history! This moron is towing the same line of politicians the world over.
James Pierce says
See, the problem here is that what these people are doing very much IS Islam, and Mr. Khan and types like him are either blind to that fact or willfully ignorant of it.
gravenimage says
James, Khan is not blind to this–he is lying to the Infidels about it.
The unexpected voice says
Don’t bother to try bullshiting. Qur’an never taught about terrorism is a bogus because all of savagery muslims including Muhammad himself always waging war upon infidels.
It’s a sad thing that Kashmiri women are beautiful but most of them believe in the death cult called Islam.
Veracious_one says
radical Islam is what is taught in Islamic schools…children are beaten if they are slow in learning their Islamic lessons…
PRCS says
Well, not to start a fight Veracious, but, how–exactly–does ‘radical Islam–differ from the regular version?
Jaladhi says
Radical Islam is the real Islam and is taught all over the world in mosques and madrassa. One can ask if this this is radical Islam then where is the “peaceful” Islam that is taught to Muslims? You will not find any such thing!
PRCS says
Or, as others have facetiously asked, “Where can I buy the ‘moderate’ version of Qur’an?”
Krishna says
Till now no politician in India ever talked about Islam’s role in kashmir terror
FYI says
What?
In fact the “prophet” muhammed himself boasted …….
“I have been made victorious through TERROR”
sahih bukhari 4:52:220
All muslims are required to follow his example or sunnah and since he was a self-confessed terrorist,that is what they are doing.
This has to be shouted {sarcastically}from the rooftops..
“islam is the most non-violent creed!…..In fact,islam is the religion of PE…{KABOOM}”
Angemon says
Better allocate more law enforcement to schools, just on case…
DHazard says
Might as well rename the logical fallacy “no true Scotsman” to “no true Muslim”. Everybody says it, even fundamentalist Muslims use it against “moderate” Muslims as in, “If he doesn’t believe that adulterers should be stoned then he is not a true Muslim”.
PRCS says
“The terrorists want the public to remain illiterate so that they can control their mind,”
Nope!
Allah’s slaves want the public to remain illiterate so that they can control their minds, because that’s what Allah wants.
somehistory says
They always want to involve the school children…. in order to lie to and manipulate the young minds, to bend the young in the evil ways of islam.
Who can ever believe or put their trust in a “khan” man? Who cares what the ‘first word in their filthy book is? It’s full of commands and demands to murder, rape, steal, commit extortion., wage war….every foul deed known to humans. This ‘khan’ man is a liar, like his moslim brothers and sisters.

Robert Spencer wrote, “Eventually Islam’s nature will be clear to everyone.”
It is extremely rare when I disagree with Mr. Spencer, for whom I have immense respect, but this is such an instance because there is a portion of our species who never learn, including a lot of very intelligent and well-educated people.
I hope I’m wrong here and Mr. Spencer is correct but I fear otherwise, though believe me when I say I would never more like to be wrong about a major issue than this one—no exceptions. Yes indeed, I would cherish being wrong about this and Robert Spencer right on target again.

*Some* Infidels are waking up–too few, though.
Infidel says
Farooq Khan is a follower of his own personal Islam, which has little in common w/ any mainstream sect. Just wondering whether he’s an Ahmadi
gravenimage says
I think he’s more likely a Taqiyya artist.

India: Jammu and Kashmir official says religion terrorists follow is “definitely not Islam”
………………
Uh huh–even though the other Khan, leader of Pakistan, has said that Muslims all over the world will attack India in the name of Islam and seize Kashmir:
“Pakistan’s Imran Khan: ‘People will rise against India, not just Indian Muslims, there are 1.25 billion Muslims'”

Shane Gerzon says
I enjoy your Jihad Watch! But I must add that I’m a currently raising two Jewish kids with my wife, though my ex is raising my first 5 outstanding kids under Christ. One just got a 240,000 scholarship to Rhodes college in Memphis where he plays football and will likely graduate at the top of his class.
In 1994 I stayed on a cold houseboat in Kashmir with a good Muslim family. They named me Salim after a kind but murderous Muslim King from centuries earlier. Mutually compatible? Ya never know bro. My host family were not saints but I did learn a lot from them and remember them fondly. Not as fun were the shrieks I would hear daily from the retarded neighbor girl who was getting beat or raped. So it goes. We are all connected.
Stay watchful my brothers. But do remember so try and separate the good from the bad, the decent from the indecent, however futile it may sometimes seem.
Cheers,

Shane, no one here has said that there are not decent individual Muslims. But the bloody Jihad in Kashmir–to seize land from the Infidels and impose brutal Shari’ah law–is the ultimate goal of Islam everywhere, including in Canada.
Did you ever wonder why these nice Muslims did not notify the authorities about the poor child being raped and abused next door? Might it be because in Islam there is no penalty parents abusing and even killing their child? Did you ever ask?
That you take the example of a developmentally disabled child being beaten and raped–and no one helping her–to show how we are all connected is actually very disturbing.
As for King Salim, he was known as “world seizer” (“Jahangir”) for his bloody conquests. Father and his sons had a bloody relationship as well, with one brother blinding and killing the other after trying to take the throne from his father. This son would also turn against his father as well, also trying to grab the throne.
More Muslim “family values”.
OT, but congratulations on your own childrens’ accomplishments. Unfortunately, if Islam ever takes over the West–God forbid!–as Infidels children like these will not have these kinds of opportunities.
WPM says
Yes it must be nice to visit a Moslem family that thinks the next door family raping or possible beating their mental retard daughter to death is normal .”So it goes” raping violence treating women even your own flesh and blood as objects to be abused at will ,”so it goes” invite and encourage those who think this is normal behavior according to their “cultural and religion ” to move to your neck in the woods of the west. WE cannot condemn this kind of behavior because “we are all connected” no cultural or religion is more inferior to another even if its rotting foundations is based on violence , rape ,terrorism, slavery ,supremist thinking in dealing with women and non-believers. I am sure you would in your PC thinking clouded mind would be glad to hand over your daughter or young son over to be a sex slave to these cultural enrichers invading the west( under the media pleading we must help the poor refugees )
