Jihad Watch

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

Muslim cleric says Qur’an encourages offensive jihad to humiliate infidels and spread Islam

Dec 9, 2019 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

Sheikh Muhammad Hammoud Al-Najdi quotes Qur’an 8:39: “And fight them until there is no fitnah and the religion, all of it, is for Allah. And if they cease – then indeed, Allah is Seeing of what they do.”

He also quotes Qur’an 9:29: “Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which has been forbidden by Allah and his messenger, nor acknowledge 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.”

Where did he pick up this Islamophobia?

“Kuwaiti Islamic Scholar Muhammad Hammoud Al-Najdi: The Quran Encourages Offensive Jihad by Means of Force; It Is Used to Humiliate Infidels, Spread Islam,” MEMRI, July 3-11, 2019:

Kuwaiti Islamic scholar Sheikh Muhammad Hammoud Al-Najdi said in a show that aired between July 3 – 11, 2019 on Al-Ma’ali TV (Kuwait) that offensive Jihad is a concept that exists in Islam even though some people deny its existence. He cited several Quranic verses, including ones that urge Muslims to fight and subdue non-believers until they pay a poll tax or accept Islam. He explained that this means shooting the enemy with arrows, missiles, and so forth, and that Allah provides for the Islamic nation through Jihad by giving them spoils of war, property, and land. Sheikh Al-Najdi also said that one of the purposes of Jihad is to break the power of the infidels and humiliate them. He added: “Allah tortures [the infidels] at the hands of the believers.”

    The Kuwaiti scholar ably exposes “radicalisation” to be a Western delusion.
    The West will not listen, though.

      Which allows Islam’s apologists and useful idiots (‘journalists, leftists, etc.) to continue to regurgitate the radical Islam, radical Islamic terrorism, radicalized meme).

    “fight them until there is no fitnah and the religion, all of it, is for Allah”.
    “religion” in Islam is government. There is no distinction between mosque and state: the mosque is an arm of government. The Arabic word “deen” denotes governance.

    In Islam religion is emphatically NOT limited to private conscience. This is quite unlike the West, where religion is limited to private conscience. In Islam no private conscience is permitted. The Egyptian sheikh Yassir al-Burhani makes this clear in his response to an interviewer’s question:

    “For example, is it the right of the Muslim to convert to Christianity or another religion?”

    “Of course this is not a right.”

    (JihadWatch.org 1 June 2012)

    A better translation of the passage from Koran 8:39 above would be “until the regime, all of it, is Islam”.

    All this teaching, being basic Islamic doctrine, will have been taught to the Fishmongers’ Hall killer who was overpowered through Polish and British courage on London Bridge.

    A new legal defense is needed in majority non-Islamic countries. Unreformed Islamic institutions are by definition terrorist cells and so are its members. Only reformed Islam is permitted. We will know them by their actions. Any evidence a Muslim acts to support unreformed Islam means swift removal from society and return to Dar al Islam (land of Islam) where they can cared for by the indoctrinated ummah and the wicked ulema. We must not let Islamists turn our home into their Dar al Harb (land of war).

    • Niemoller says

      Dec 9, 2019 at 11:16 am

      Any coercion to force Muslims to wear Islamic dress or threats against leaving Islam is unreformed Islam and will be treated accordingly with swift deportation and loss of any citizenship. Secular governments must recognize Dar al Islam and Dar al Harb as geographic realities that affect national defense when acted upon by hundreds of millions of Islamists.

      Niemoller, what is “reformed Islam”? This does not exist.

        It’s whatever doesn’t violate anyone’s human rights. You’ll know it when you see it. The moment there’s a violation, it’s a swift deportion or jail, depending on the severity.

      • Niemoller says

        Dec 9, 2019 at 8:11 pm

        You’re right, it doesn’t exist and probably never will, but on principle, I’d give each non-terrorist Muslim (oxymoron?) one chance to show me differently before showing them the door.

    But it’s clearly written in their Holy Book. And people around the world who’ve read their Holy Book have been saying this for years. So what’s new?

    Muslim cleric says Qur’an encourages offensive jihad to humiliate infidels and spread Islam
    …………………………..

    But…but…that can’t be right! If Jihad is ever violent–which, y’know, never happens–the it is omly defensive. And what does he mean, humiliate? Everyone knows that Islam has nothing but respect for the “filthy Infidels”…sarc/off

    This is one for the books. An Islamic scholar actually telling the truth?

    • gravenimage says

      Dec 9, 2019 at 4:22 pm

      Muslims tell the truth about their vicious creed all the time, jap. They only use Taqiyya when trying to lull the Infidels into a false sense of security.

      Memri translates Arabic and Urdu and other languages, where Muslims do not believe that the Kuffar are ever going to hear what they say to Muslim audiences.

        actually, GI, the pious ummah is pretty safe in making the bet that the idiot legacy media won’t even bother looking at their statements in non-european languages. when leaders of non-european nations visit the leaders of european nations, what they say gets coverage, but what *anybody* says at any other time or place in a non-european language does not, even when it concerns the people and nations of the west. this is indeed idiocy, but they have been doing this ever since there was an excuse – distance and lack of communication – in the 19th century and before. it’s just that this creaky old excuse can now be used to lie, and the legacy media will not be called on it. in fact, MEMRI is attacked regularly for its translations, and the most hilarious part of the attacks is that alternative translations with justifications for the alternatives are rarely, if ever, provided, and when they are, they are usually twisted past the breaking point.

        being able to get away with such blatant and audacious lies is breathtaking, and clearly illustrates how far down the path to tyranny we are. at one time, i thought that this was just intellectual laziness, but that was *decades* before i realized the dangers of the poisonous cult of islam. i now understand that hard-core leftist thought leaders *want* things that way, and that most people, thinking that the u.s. and the west are at the top of their game, simply assume that since nobody is sounding warning bells (that they hear), all is well with the world. when i look back at my life and realize that i spent *DECADES* in blissful ignorance, i well understand where most people are. the truth is out there, and a lot more people know it than would have had the internet not existed, but googal, fascistbook, et al., have done a pretty good job of automating the destruction of freedom. we all need to keep plugging away at spreading the truth. we may not be able to stop a civil war or worse, but we would be moral failures were we not to make the attempt.

          Grimly true. But we can’t give up.

    The Koran has 164 verses instructing Muslims to wage war upon all mankind “until all religion is with Allah” {Sura 8:39}; by contrast, the New Testament has 0 verses calling upon Christians to wage war in order to make all the world Christian. HUGE DIFFERENCE
