They’re waging “health jihad” and heeding dictates similar to those of the Iraqi Kurdish Supreme Fatwa Committee, which declared “anyone who dies due to Covid-19 is a martyr per Islamic Sharia.” So whether they’re infected with coronavirus or not, as far as they’re concerned they emerge victorious.
“Bangladesh Muslims Spark Outcry over Mass Chinese Coronavirus Prayers,” by Simon Kent, Breitbart, March 19, 2020:
Tens of thousands of Muslim faithful sparked an outcry in Bangladesh on Wednesday as they defied authorities to hold a mass public prayer gathering just as the South Asian nation reported its first death from the global pandemic.
Local police chief Tota Miah said some 10,000 hard-line Muslims gathered in an open field in Raipur town in southern Bangladesh to pray “healing verses” from the Koran to rid the country of the deadly virus.
Organisers claimed the number of worshippers was closer to 25,000 and acknowledged they did not get permission from authorities to hold the session.
“They held the Khatme Shifa prayers after dawn to free the country from the coronavirus,” Miah told AFP.
Authorities have already shut schools and asked locals to avoid large gatherings in an effort to halt the spread of the disease.
“Unbelievable how they even have done it without notifying the police? They will be held responsible if anything happens to the people in the region,” Abdur Rahman wrote on Facebook.
This is not the first time devout Muslims have defied authorities to continue their worship in crowded public places, many believing their faith makes them invincible in the face of the threat posed by the Chinese coronavirus pandemic.
As Breitbart News reported, the practice is increasingly common in Iran.
Earlier this month online videos emerged showing the faithful licking and kissing shrines to show they have no fear of infection during the Islamic republic’s escalating coronavirus outbreak:….

I’m afraid that’s wishful thinking. This pandemic (and subsequent ones) will thin out their numbers somewhat; but they’ll soon bounce back due to high birthrates.
maemae77 says
The odds of dying from this virus a 1.4% and the only people actually dying have life threatening pre-existing conditions mist Muslims are in good health. That’s not a good plan. These Muslims are just showing that they’re idiots and only want the virus to infect non-Muslims in the form of jihad. Protect our seniors.

This was not a just a demonstration of faith, it was a demonstration of political power, of successful defiance of the public authorities.
Gork says
Yes, it is a demonstration of political power. It is also a demonstration that they don’t care about the living.
Let’s just say that if and when there is a vaccine against this virus, we’ll tell them that it was invented in Israel (and for all we know that might just happen). Then we’ll watch as they walk away from it.
I hope they become the Shakers of today as a result.

Antiislamicman says
Some people will be very happy about this. Told you Islam is only for the most stupid.
Don’t forget they are praying to a god that did not exist before the 7th century.
Don’t you just love Islam ?

“…Don’t forget they are praying to a god that did not exist before the 7th century….”
————————————————————————————
Doesn’t exist now either – well past time that non-muslim countries made a public statement of the simple truths that_
(1) Mohammed was one of the most evil men who ever lived
(2) there isn’t any Allah
(3) Islam is a crock of ess-aitch-one-tee that will not be allowed in civilised countries
(4) Europe survived only to the present day by kicking it’s practitioners out
(5) America survived to the present day by not allowing it’s practitioners in in the first place
(6) Points (4) and (5) have fallen into desuetude
(7) If the free world is to survive – rediscover (4) and (5)
(8) Job done.

Forever and ever, Amen !
Aussie Infidel says
Spot on Phil. Islam has no place in a civilized society.

The Fatwa Committee decrees: “…anyone who dies due to Covid-19 is a martyr per Islamic Sharia” *
COMMITTEE FOOTNOTES
*Allah Most Merciful and Beneficent decrees via our Fatwa Committee** that any unclean infidel*** who dies due to Covid-19 deserves death and shall quickly be in a tortuous Hell forever.
**You are commanded by Allah, The All-Knowing And Best Of Deceivers, to believe anything the Fatwa Committee decrees, even if you think Allah might be lying.
***Even those dirty kaffir who have assisted and, verily, even saved the lives of Believers anywhere by their kindness and charity will be cast in to Allah’s eternal Lake of Fire.
So we decree. So shall it be written. So shall it be done.

Westman says
“…They will be held responsible if anything happens to the people in the region,”
Oh, yes, governments have always been able to identify everyone in a mob of 10,000 to 25,000 people.(sarc).
Intelligent Muslims should be asking themselves why they are in a religion that is literally killing its own with a disease, through ignorance and fealty to a god who has never made a personal appearance?
Rezali Mehil says
Salam all,
What JW calls “health jihad” … the West calls herd immunity. The UK science officer wanted 40 million people to get the virus and “move on”, Muslims don’t need science officers to tell them … Allah SWT is there anyway 24/7.
There is method here as well as the added benefit of praising Allah SWT…i.e. the virus tests our faith and we will come out stronger .. I simply cannot get over how strong Islam is.
The West will wait for the vaccine, which will be swallowed by the elite …whilst the rest are hiding like poor frightened mice, dying in agony one at a time to 1000/week … look at the difference in our societies.
Yes some will die … but the rest will come out stronger… the pity is that we need “some” infidel to carry on essential cleaning whilst we pray; so I recommend that they are sent in to the clean and disinfect our mosques ready for prayer … I mean its a joint effort that is required, any disinfectant that remains they can take home to keep themselves alive too, ready for the next day’s work.
More Later ….

I can’t get over how stupid Islam is. You once told me you that in addition to Islam you also were an advocate of Socialism. Have you immigrated to China yet? I hear Wuhan is in need of more workers in the worker’s paradise there. But then, you probably don’t work, do you? However, maybe there are other benefits to be found there for you. You should go and find out.
Mural says
You, Sir, should be made the new head of WHO.
I await for further pearls of wisdom in your subsequent posts.
Westman says
It seems you can’t fix stupid.
Rezali thinks that herd death and “herd immunity” results that won’t protect, in the future, those that never contacted the disease are superior to vaccination for all.
Rezali, you are a poor example of a humanitarian yet so perfectly representative of Allah, the post-life sadistic torturer of humans.

Why would Muslims have a “herd immunity” to a new virus? Doesn’t the witless Rezali Mehil realize that the pandemic is especially bad in Iran? It seems that her fellow Shi’ites don’t have any magical “herd immunity” to the Coronavirus.

It certainly ‘smells’ pretty strong…
No, putting yourself and your fellow humans needlessly at risk is not a show of faith–it is endangering others for no reason. But then, when has Islam ever done anything else? *Ugh*.

What absolute crap. In fact, measures in the West have been notable for treating everyone the same–just the opposite from Islam, in fact.
Here was the vicious Rezali Mehil just a few days ago saying that India or any other nation that wants to rescue Hindus and other non-Muslims from Muslim persecution should have to pay Pakistan thousands of dollars–in other words, that they consider Hindus their slaves who should not be allowed to leave:

Let’s unpack this, shall we? First, this vicious thug doesn’t care at all for people who will needlessly suffer and die while Muslims flout common sense precautions.
Then–just as in the post of hers I linked to–she is suggesting using Infidel slaves to clean Muslim’s filthy Mosques. This is *exactly* what she and her fellow Muslims will do if they are allowed to come to power here in the free West.

It shouldn’t surprise anyone with the smallest knowledge of the pathways of viruses if many infections result from this and similar prayer meetings.
Almost all Christian churches (to my knowledge) voluntarily suspended prayer meetings and other faith-related programs in order to protect society from further infections spread between church members. The SARS epidemic got its kick start from a mass in which cordial church members hugged and kissed while exchanging ‘the peace’.
mortimer says
If the Shi’ites want truly to ‘promote healing’ at such prayer gatherings, they should pass around bottles of fresh camel urine in obedience to the words of Mohammed. That way, they can be infected with coronavirus and MERS (camel flu) at the same time and then fly in large numbers to paradise as ‘martyrs’.
