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

Syria: Muslim group imposes Sharia in Idlib, forces Christians to pay the jizya

Apr 28, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Jizya is a tax that the subjugated “People of the Book” must pay to the Muslims for the privilege of being allowed to practice their religions, albeit within a superstructure of institutionalized discrimination and harassment: “Fight those who do not believe in Allah or the Last Day, and do not forbid what has been forbidden by Allah and his messenger, and do not 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” (Qur’an 9:29).

“Jihadist rebels confiscate Christian properties in Idlib,” AMN, April 25, 2020:

BEIRUT, LEBANON (7:15 P.M.) – The jihadist rebels have been confiscating Christian properties in Idlib on the basis of their religion, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported on Saturday.

“Christians in Idlib province face the injustice of jihadist organizations and violations by Islamic factions, in terms of applying ‘Islamic Sharia law’ to members of different religious communities. Islamic factions are clamping down on them and imposing levies ‘Jizya’ in order to force them to leave their homes to regime-controlled areas,” the SOHR report said.

According to the SOHR report, the jihadist rebels, primarily Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham (HTS), are forcing Christian property owners to renew contracts at their officers, which often result in raising rent on their houses and shops….

The jihadist group has notified the remaining Christians in Idlib that their faction has ‘right’ to raise the prices on their properties and even confiscate them.

If a Christian landowner has left the jihadist-held areas, they are not allowed to retain their properties by hiring someone to represent them in their areas, the SOHR added.

    So ISIS is not dead, just reincarnated. Muslim thugs automatically go to Islam’s ‘DEFAULT CODE’, namely the PACT OF OMAR, which imposes DISCRIMINATORY conditions on minorities.

    Any dhimmi who doesn’t comply willingly with Islamic overlords loses the right to live.

    In the minority, Muslims try to cooperate, but in the majority, Muslims don’t have to compromise. Western people don’t get that.

    The Pact of Omar is the ‘DEFAULT SETTING’ of Islam.

      This is not ISIS–these are other pious Muslims, who are, technically, at least. rivals of ISIS.

        Absolutely correct G.

    Verse 9:29 was never abrogated nor will it expire and be replaced by “something better” until the Muslim Jesus (Isa) returns to abolish the Jizya and then kill all those who refuse to convert (or revert) to full submission to Islam by becoming Muslims. Those who believe that the Koran is the unalterable word of Allah and that those words are to be obeyed must fight in any way they can against the infidels to make them do as this verse commands. Those Muslims who do not fight are counted among those called hypocrites. It matters not as to the country in which the Muslims live. Muslims will fight for it in Syria or anywhere else in the world.

      ….and as per the Koran – with even more disturbing bellicosity their version of Jesus will smash the cross, because Islam has stripped Jesus of his divinity and deny he was ever crucified.

      Another example of Islam wishing to expunge Christianity.

    Syria: Muslim group imposes Sharia in Idlib, forces Christians to pay the jizya
    ………………

    But wasn’t this all just ISIS–which as everyone knows has nothing to do with Islam? sarq/off

    Of course, this is orthodox Islam.

    Note that Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham means “Organization for the Liberation of the Levant”. In other words, part of what Muslims consider “liberation” is oppressing and abusing Christians and other Infidels. It is a merger between Jabhat Fateh al-Sham (formerly al-Nusra Front), the Ansar al-Din Front, Jaysh al-Sunna, Liwa al-Haqq, and the Nour al-Din al-Zenki Movement. Again, this is nothing “radical”.

    Jihadists in Syria were and still are aided, abetted and sponsored by NATO member Turkey led by Erdogan, the wannabe new Chaliph.

      Τhis is what president Trump said about Erdogan ” Ι like him a lot and I consider him my friend. I think I can do business with him”.

      • Woke Infidel says

        Apr 30, 2020 at 4:13 pm

        Ok. Just be aware that Trump is not Obama, telegraphing his moves and thoughts, drawing a line in the sand and then backing away from it. There are times when a polite comment is far better than revealing what you really think. Erdogan’s vocal plans for a future caliphate have most likely been heard & considered.

    The people of the book need to standup around the world and destroy the islamic/sharia Caliphate. Make no mistake we are at war with the islamic states around the world. Their leadership has one thing in mind and that is the destructions of all other religions and the enforcement of sharia law.
