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

Video claims China’s prime minister said reading the Quran and offering Islamic prayer can help prevent coronavirus

Mar 10, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer

When Islamic apologetics can get people killed.

“Cropped Aaj Tak Video Used To Spread Misinformation On Coronavirus,” by Saket Tiwari, BOOM, March 9, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

A video claiming Hindi news channel Aaj Tak reported that China’s prime minister said reading the Quran and offering Namaaz can help prevent the Coronavirus, is false.

The viral clip has been culled from a longer video which fact-checked false claims surrounding the deadly disease.

The Hindi caption accompanying the 28-second clip reads: ‘Chinese prime minister has ordered to open locks of all mosques and to recite Quran and Namaaz. Only the Quran has the cure for Coronavirus. Undoubtedly.’ (In Hindi: चीन के प्रधानमंत्री ने सारे मस्जिदों के ताला खोलने व नमाज़ व कूरान पढ़ने का आदेश जारी किया. कोरोना वायरस का इलाज सिर्फ कुरान में है.beshak)

BOOM found that the clip begins and ends abruptly and has been created by splicing together separate parts of the voiceover to make up a false narrative….

      Unfortunately the September 2001 clip of George W Bush standing in a Mosque while proclaiming that

      “ISLAM IS PEACE.”

      did not begin and end abruptly and was not created by splicing together separate parts of a voiceover to make up a false narrative….

      Biggest Lie Ever Uttered !!!

      Thanks a lot GWB. 🐂 💩

    ‘… video-claims-chinas-prime-minister-said-reading-the-quran-and-offering-islamic-prayer-can-help-prevent-coronavirus …’

    China’s PM is a mussie? Because they are the only ones who would believe such a load of BS!

    • Westman says

      Mar 10, 2020 at 1:09 pm

      Islamic indoctrination and 5-times daily conditioning enables some Muslim minds to hold absolutely conflicting “thoughts”, simultaneously.

      Such a logic-stunted mind has no difficulty thinking: China’s President believes in the healing power of the Quran while imprisoning over a million Uyghurs in “re-education” camps to make them stop believing the Quran and accept communist propaganda in its place.

      Perhaps a battery of true/false oxymoron questions could turned into a type of logic test to weed out jihadis and the feeble-minded among immigrants. One oxymoron that readily comes to mind is, “Islam is a religion of peace”.

      • Kathy says

        Mar 12, 2020 at 11:38 pm

        In the age of doublespeak, all oxymorons are held to be true: falsehood=truth, up=down, death=life, slavery=freedom, Islam=peace, etc, etc ad nauseum…

        The result would be in degrees close to Absolute Zero.

        For islamic editing skills you should see on You Tube

        “Cat won’t walk on quran”

        o subhan allah!see how the cat is terrified of walking on the ‘holy’ koran!

        {And see how easily gullible folk fall for the “miracle”:yes indeed the miracle of EDITING a video}

        This islamic “scientific” experiment has of course been debunked and ridiculed.A cat wouldn’t know what a book is or contains in it.

    How exactly is the Qur’an and islamic prayer supposed to stop a virus? Islam IS a ‘virus’ – and a pretty obnoxious social virus at that, responsible for impeding human progress wherever it has taken root and the deaths of many millions throughout the world over the last 1,400+ years! But even more ominous is this apparent collusion between the People’s Republic of China, which has been compared by protesters in Hong Kong to the German Third Reich, and islam, which blatantly represents a kind of proto-Nazi ideology. Put these two together and – oh dear oh dear – you have a recipe for a monumental force for evil. Not long ago, observers of China noted that there is an increasingly strong underlying Christian element in China. Hopefully this will stop all this nonsense.

      “Islam IS a ‘virus’”

      Yes, either a virus or a cancer – I’m not sure which…

  6. John says

    Mar 10, 2020 at 8:54 am

    I would trust the Chinese to devious enough to make such a suggestion. If a Muslim in China would get the virus, he would go to the Mosque and read the Quran. Why would that not be in the interest of the Chinese government?

    • James Lincoln says

      Mar 10, 2020 at 3:41 pm

      Definitely in the interest of the Chinese government, John.

      None of those pesky medical bills to deal with…

    • gravenimage says

      Mar 10, 2020 at 11:42 pm

      I am no fan of the Communist Chinese, but the Chinese PM did not say this. This is just crap from Muslims.

        Indeed you are right, Graven. Xi Jinping is an equal-opportunity traditional religion basher. He is an heir of a 1930’s ideology which will believe and poppycock as long as it is prefaced with “Science (hush! hush! genuflect!) says…”

    We remember when they say the Covid 19 was a curse from Allah and therefore retribution on the Chinese people for the treatment of the Uighur muslims, Why the back turn? Now as touching reading the Al Qur’an however, when the people of holy city of Qom caught the coronavirus infection and top notch ministers started dying, why couldn’t they just read the Al Qur’an for their health to be recovered or that too is a visitation from Allah on the Qom city? If reading the Qur’an is good at averting the infection then it should come from supreme leader of Iran but not from an atheist .Please intensify the reading for better health throughout the realm.

      Depends on which Muslims.

    Reading the Qur’an is the only way for Muslims with coronavirus to be cured. No vaccines or other medicines from the Infidel West should be trusted. Only the Qur’an and, of course, those five daily prayers.

    • Westman says

      Mar 10, 2020 at 1:24 pm

      Yes, this must be how Covid-19 has been kept from the faithful in Iran – meeting in a closed room after washing in a common area, prostrating in contact with men on each side, tossing a combined quart of saliva into the air while praising Allah, and then meeting together for the big week finale on Friday. Any spreading of Corvid-19 in Iran would be a complete mystery.

      I thought they closed the mosques? Or manybe it was a grand reopening for free hand sanitizers.

  11. Mark Spahn (West Seneca, NY) says

    So reciting the Namaaz prayer prevents coronavirus? Let’s look at this systematically, according to Islamic science. The Namaaz can be recited with any of nine postures. See
    https://www.islamicnet.com/pray-nimaz-1
    Which posture works best? This is an excellent opportunity for an experiment in Islamic epidemiology.

    Concerning the plague of coronavirus which is so terrible that it prompted China’ prime minister to speak out about reading the Qu ‘ran and saying Islamic prayers to halt the spread of this infectious disease.

    The officials of the government of Red China must greatly fear coronavirus to go religious ,even if its Islamicly religious. for this virus. -since communism is atheist and teaches that no god exist , Either the God of the Bible or the god of the Qu ‘ran .

    This might also shows the influence of Islam in in a nation that is officially Marxist.

    Furthermore China’s prime minster when he spoke of reads the Qu ‘ran ,very much, shows , that he has no idea the according tot he Qu ‘ran its Alah,l the god of Islam ,who is the one responsible for starting and infecting coronavirus on humankind, . So it’s not really ” Allah the merciful” but instead it’s Allah the vicious

    So it’s Allah who is really to blame and is responsible for the coronavirus plague is the god of Islam ,Allah. For according to the Quran Allah had sent cruel disaster of coronavirus on human beings .

    This means then the god of Islam, as if he really does is a destructive and malicious god. For the Quran teaches in Surah 57:22. “No misfortune [disaster] can happen on earth or in your souls but is recorded in a decree [Quran ] before [in eternity ] We [Allah] bring it into existence: that is easy for Allah.”

    Therefore according the Islam’s “holy book,” the Quran the Islamic god, Allah, is guilty of infecting people with coronavirus What a cruel vicious, malicious god Allah must be. So Allah is than a very unloving malice –filled god.

    Nevertheless, all Christians and Jews shout not lose faith and heart in the God of the Bible as vicious by sending coronavirus on people.

    This is because the god of Islam is should be made clear that the God of the Bible is not really Allah the god of Islam. To explain, through the passing of time it has become widely accepted that the word “Allah” is just the Arabic word for God. This started when truth compromising Bible “translators” substituted the word Allah where the word God should have had been uses in the Arabic translation of the Bible. Furthermore, in the glossary in the book ASSASSINS! By Dr. Haha Lung it defines Allah as the “Pre-Islamic Lunar god : the god of Islam. “

    Likewise, in the book entitled INSIDE ISLAM by a former Muslim who is now a Christian, Reza F. Safa on pages 22, 23 it reads “In pre-Islamic times both Allah –worship and Baal-worship involved the worship of the sun, the moon and the stars which h defines them as astral religions. [Which are condemned in the Bible, Second Kings 23:5] The crescent moon, which was the symbol of moon worship, is also the symbol of Islam.”

    In conclusion the Islamic god, Allah, is not the God of the Bible. The words in brackets are my own. In addition other some other books that expose this little known truths are WHO IS THIS ALLAH ? by G..J.O.. Moshay also UNVEILING ISLAM by Ergun Mehmet Caner and Emir Fethi Caner and THE ISLAMIC INVASION by Robert Morey . There is also PHILISTINE by Ramon Bennett and ANSWERING JIHAD by Mabeel Qureshi

    .”

      The Chinese PM did not turn to Islam. Muslims just lied and said he did.
