Yemen: Islamic scholar says Jews and US created coronavirus in order to take control of Mecca and Medina

Mar 30, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

And the Jews put the Saud clan in power in Arabia in order to Judaize the mosques in Mecca and Medina. The fact that the Sauds have been in power for 100 years and that hasn’t happened doesn’t stop this man’s conspiratorial anti-Semitic fantasies.

“Friday Sermon by Yemeni Scholar Ibrahim Al-Ubeidi: Coronavirus Is Part of a Plan by the Jews, Israel, U.S. to Control Mecca, Medina; The Saud Clan Is a Jewish Family Brought into Power in Order to Judaize These Cities,” MEMRI, March 16, 2020:

Yemeni scholar Ibrahim Al-Ubeidi said in a Friday, March 13, 2020 sermon in Sanaa, Yemen that aired on Al-Eman TV (Yemen) that Saudi Arabia, which he referred to as “the United States of Saudi Arabia”, has openly declared that it is normalizing relations with Israel. He said that the rise of the Saud clan, which he described “a Jewish family par excellence”, was brought about by an Iraqi Jew named Mordechai as part of a Jewish plan to Judaize the holy mosques in Mecca and Medina. In addition, Sheikh Al-Ubeidi said that the late Houthi leader, Hussein Badreddin Al-Houthi, had predicted that the Jews, Israel, and America would take control of Mecca and Medina and create a pandemic in order to shut down the two holy mosques. Sheikh Al-Ubeidi further claimed that the coronavirus pandemic affects the holy mosques in Mecca and Medina but does not affect dancing halls were Saudi man and women meet and dance with foreigners.

    It amazes me me at how stupid people can be when hatred gets in their head and takes control. but then there are those that will listen to this blither blather and believe it.

      John , Muslims in Iraq for example used to say until now like all Muslims that 9/11 was an inside job ! and no wonder because the conspiracy theory is embedded in the evil book of the Quran for the last 14 centuries ( Quran 2:105,120, 209,3:119-120,5:51,etc .. )

    What? The dirty kufaar and those cunning Jews will stop at nothing to take Mecca from the Muslims!

    This is the sort of leadership Muslims have! Absurd nobodies spouting ridiculous nonsense.

    Why in anyone’s wildest imagination would anyone want MECCA … one of the most desolate places on earth … even tarted up as it is now as a religious copy of Las Vegas ???

    Mecca was chosen as the temporary religious capital of Islam, because the caliph of Damascus had big problems getting there! It was a safe place to stash the Black Stone, because Petra (the real Holy City of Mohammed) was smashed up by Governor Hajjaj under orders from Caliph Abd al Malik.

    As a result of the move to Mecca from Petra, the Umayyad Dynasty refused to recognize Mecca for over 100 years and pointed their qibla on a line parallel to the line between Petra and Mecca. It took over 200 years for all mosques to point towards Mecca.

    Muslims haven’t figured out that Mecca is a fake holy city. The joke is on them to this day.

      Agree absolutely. And, by the way, Petra is the only major archaeological site left by Arabs, there is nothing in Arabia proper.

      Yes, we are expected to believe that a conspiracy is in the works to change the Two Mosques into synagogues!

      What drug do Muslims give to their ‘scholars’ ? Or is this foolishness a result of cousin marriage inbreeding?

      Many Muslims–especially Shia–also claim that Wahhab was Jewish.

      This sort of thing is common–Ayaan Hirsi Ali described growing up in Dar-al-Islam that Muslims blamed the Jews for *everything*, including their cars not starting and fights with the bass. This, despite none of them ever meeting a Jew. They were considered to be more Jinn than actual people.

      • Lion heart says

        Mar 30, 2020 at 10:27 pm

        Gravenimage : by the way Muslims especially in Iraq were so much indulged in their conspiracy theory so much so that they even claimed that after ever Islamic terrorist attack committed by ISIS like beheading that those carried your the beheading were American and Jews in disguise 😂😂 because it’s impossible that Muslims would kill their fellow Muslims 😅and I was like “ ok ,but guess what Muslims ! The Quran commanded Muslims to kill non Muslims especially Jews & Christians who don’t convert to Islam and be subjugated to Islamic rule but it also commands Muslims to kill the hypocrites ( Muslims by name ) as in Quran 9:73

        • gravenimage says

          Mar 31, 2020 at 7:04 pm

          Yes, Lion Heart–this sort of thing is enormously common with Muslims. Anything they don’t like is supposed to be the fault of Jews or Americans.

    What chutzpah! The West doesn’t give a da– about the gussied-up shack that housed idols. The idea that any Western nation wants anything to do with Mecca or Medina is side-splitting, hilarious. And any Muslim nation, without oil money, that wants it is just asking for trouble. Let SA and Iran duke it out.

    Every day needs some humor to lighten it. Thank you, Ibrahim Al-Ubeid, for enlightening this day by demonstrating that being an Islamic “scholar” does not remove stupidity. You’re embarassing your Jinn.

      Also note that the Hajj is a locus of disease very year. The huge numbers of let’s say unsanitary people circling the stone spread diseases. Maybe because Mohammedans are accustomed to disease and ignorance, it doesn’t bother them.
      No place in Israel or managed by Jewish people would be allowed to be so pestilential as Mecca. Yuck!

      • gravenimage says

    Because of the British alliance with the House of Saud (led by Major T. Lawrence), the British awarded the custodianship of Mecca and Medina to Al Saud. They had to take it away from the Hashimite Dynasty which was the custodian prior to that. In compensation, the Foreign Office gave the Hashimites the Emirate of Trans-Jordan, thus beginning the Israel-Palestine conflict. (Mohammed was supposedly a Hashimite. Some say that Hahim comes from Hebrew ‘ha-shem’ … a euphemism for the divine name.)

    The Saud Dynasty is a relatively new royal family. They are from the Mrudah clan of eastern Arabia and descendants of Muhammad bin Saud, founder of the Emirate of Diriyah in 1744. The Al Saud gained its moral authority from the great reformer of Islam Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab. Wahhabist Salafism is a puritan form of Islam that claims to recover the original, warlike practices of Mohammed.

    ISIS, Al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood are all Wahhabist.

    • gravenimage says

      Mar 30, 2020 at 4:34 pm

      Mortimer–with all respect–Muslims murderously hated the Jews long before the Britons ever came along. The implication that Muslims would have been fine with the state of Israel if only the Saudis hadn’t wound up with Mecca and Medina is mistaken.

    Assuming the minimum level of intellectual integrity you’d normally associated with those who call themselves ‘scholars’, I always thought there was something strangely oxymoronic about the concept of an ‘islamic scholar, bearing in mind the intellectual quality (or lack of it) of islamic source material. Ibrahim Al-Ubeidi’s perceptive (!?) pronouncement here (along with all the other ‘gems of wisdom’ from islamic ‘scholars’) just confirms my suspicions.

    • James Lincoln says

      Mar 30, 2020 at 4:54 pm

      Jayell,

      According to Merriam-Webster, the definition of scholar is the following:

      1: a person who attends a school or studies under a teacher : PUPIL

      2a: a person who has done advanced study in a special field

      b: a learned person

      In a strict sense, Ibrahim Al-Ubeidi is an islamic scholar and he probably knows a fair amount about the koran and other islamic texts.

      It does not mean that he is wise or follows factual evidence-based logic in his study of islam…

  7. Naildriver says

    Mar 30, 2020 at 12:05 pm

    Actually, this guys fears should come to pass at least insofar as infidels over run, occupy, and control the areas of Mecca and Medina.
    And done so with the express intention of eradication of Islam from the planet.
    Muslims in large part get a sense of credibility with this illusion that Mecca is a solid fortress from the non -believers, and a place where Islam is further defined in geographical terms, as a country and nation with legitimate law and language.
    All this illusory function afforded with these locations needs to come to an end, in a very abrupt and decisive way.
    The Meccan mosque raised to the ground, Islam’s lick rock confiscated and destroyed, or hidden till all the believing idiots are deprogrammed or in insane asylums; and whole area returned to desert, and certainly where pilgrims forever denied any future trespass.
    Islam needs to be treated as the worst sort of virus, and demanding to most severe quarantine.
    That is how the world could be cured of this ignorant, sexist, racist and murderous, menace.
    Islam can be killed, if along with publications of the Koran and its distribution were also outlawed, since its most devoted depend upon such idolatries to inform their sense of bullying power.
    This possibly could be accomplished if the USA, Russia, and China would soon agree that Islam’s re-emergence is too disruptive to world stability and the progress of mankind. At some point the powers of the European Union, many African countries would actually throw in with Iran, Pakistan to threaten nuclear retaliation; so, I would suggest the big three get to it — as Islam threatens all.

      Mar 30, 2020 at 4:37 pm

      Naildriver, the black rock has been damaged several times and possibly destroyed on one occasion–this hasn’t shut Islam down before, and would be unlikely to do so in the future.

      • Naildriver says

        Mar 31, 2020 at 6:24 pm

        Of course, not in itself, any more than to destroy the buildings, but Muslims do place special significance to these locations and their whole edifice of lies depends upon their sanctity and preservation; including denial of non Muslims from Mecca. Muslims depend on a sense of their authenticity from these places , buildings and things just as their Koran. Were they blocked from their use, it wold suck a great deal of this perception of power from them. Just as if heat is deprived from a hurricane.
        This is important to Muslims; and were forces for a better world informed and convinced of Islam’s imminent destructive and oppressive intent in such a position to fight Islam, these central edifices and locations would be the place to begin.

        • gravenimage says

          Mar 31, 2020 at 7:07 pm

          Could be, Naildriver–certainly, Muslims do give the black rock a lot of importance. I still doubt that glassing Mecca and Medina would much help.

          I think that isolating Islam is the way to go–we were almost entirely safe from Jihad when Islam was largely kept separate from the civilized world.

    In India a sect of Muslims, Tabligi, did not disclose their travel history, lied to the government deliberately and even hid patients who were having symptoms of corona virus.

    Now due to this criminal act, more than 2000 people are quarantined and whole of Delhi is at a huge risk.

    Why do these stupids do such things? They making a mockery of themselves.

    These Muslim “scholars” are more delusional than the most severely ill schizophrenic. But then again, I believe that Muhammad, if he did actually exist at all, was clearly an extremely ill, delusional schizophrenic type of person (or, alternatively, maybe just a lying conman), and these mad Muslim scholars are trying to imitate Muhammad, so their lunacy shows they are being successful in matching Muhammad’s level of delusional mental illness. I read these reports about Muslim ideas about the coronavirus and keep thinking, you couldn’t make such wild, delusional nonsense up no matter how hard you tried. The Muslim concept of what a scholar is really is weird. Maybe “scholar” means madman in Muslim speak.

        All I can say about these Muslim “scholars” that seem to be popping up everywhere, James, is that if these mental midgets qualify to be called scholars, then all of us people who comment here at Jihad Watch are at least as intelligent as Einstein was. But I still have the feeling that, in Muslim societies, if you are really dumb, then they channel you off to be a sheikh or imam, because otherwise you’d be unemployable. I honestly can’t believe the crap these religious leaders, these Muslim “scholars”, come out with. But then again, Islam is full of absolute garbage, so the “scholars” fit right in.

Anything they don’t like they now blame on the JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOZ!!!!!!!! EEEEEEEEK!!!!!! Now, dear Houthis, perhaps if you guys had given your Jewish minority a positive and attractive reason to stay put where they were, they wouldn’t have snuck off and renamed themselves Sa’ud? snark snark sarc sarc.

How nuts can you be and still have all these people following you and hanging on your every word? There is one thing real apparent in the Muslim population, lack of common sense. I think I can find a buyer for that bridge I’am selling from California to Hawaii now.
