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

India: Award-winning Muslim poet says there are a billion “animals” and 350 million “humans” in the country

May 18, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

That is, there are a billion Hindus — animals — and 350 million Muslims — humans.

This idea is not “extremist.” It is straight from the Qur’an:

“And we have certainly created for hell many of the jinn and mankind. They have hearts with which they do not understand, they have eyes with which they do not see, and they have ears with which they do not hear. Those are like livestock; rather, they are more astray. It is they who are the heedless.” (7:179)

“Surely the vilest of animals in Allah’s sight are those who disbelieve.” (8:55)

“Poet Munawwar Rana displays Hinduphobia, says there are 100 crore ‘animals’ and 35 crore ‘humans’ in India,” OpIndia, May 14, 2020:

In a Hinduphobic tweet, Sahitya Akademi Award winning poet Munawwar Rana referred to Hindus as ‘animals’ who only come in handy while voting and Muslims as ‘humans’.

Addressing BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra, Munawwar Rana was criticising government of India’s measures to combat coronavirus. He said, “After seeing government’s failure on coronavirus, it has been proven that there are 35 crore humans and 100 crore animals,”. As per 2011 census, Muslim population was estimated at about 17.22 crore which would have grown over the years. And while he did not explicitly mention that he meant Hindus and Muslims as ‘animals’ and ‘humans’ in his tweet, netizens objected to this tweet of Rana and pointed out the Hinduphobic nature of his tweet.

After the outrage, he again took to Twitter to ‘clarify’ that his words were being twisted.

He claimed the 35 crore mentioned in his original tweet were not Muslims but those who are healthy and happy and 100 crore ‘animals’ are those who are deprived of basic things like food, water and shelter. But netizens were not buying it.

Amusingly, soon after clarifying that he did not mean to divide Indians on religion as ‘animals’ and ‘humans’, Rana defended the Tablighi Jamaat, which emerged as one of the major hotspots for coronavirus in India.

Many of the Tablighi Jamaat members were accused of pelting stones and misbehaving with the healthcare workers and frontline staff. UP Police recently arrested few attendees who had allegedly molested a nurse at quarantine centre.

Munawwar Rana

Munawwar Rana was awarded the Sahitya Akademi Award in 2014 by the same ‘fascist’ Modi government he keeps whining against. He was awarded for “Shehdaba”, a collection of ghazals and nazms (long poems). One of the poems in Shehdaba, was on Sonia Gandhi, which was written when Sonia Gandhi, despite winning with a thumping majority, refused the chair of the prime ministership. He returned the award in 2015 to protest against the ‘rising intolerance’….

    Corona situation in India was completely under control until Muslims started using it as a way of Jehad. Muslims from Tabhlighi jamaat who were infected went intentionally to different part of India to spread the disease. Spitting on the police officers, attacking the doctors treating them and attempts to kill the female nurses are some of their most common activities these days…. but what is the ”narrative” ? Muslims are the victims and the world is Islamophobe.

    What is wrong with animals?
    So,he doesn’t like animals:but i wonder,does that include buraq,muhammed’s …MAGICAL WINGED FLYING DONKEY WITH A WOMAN’S FACE.
    It may be imaginary{although some muslims think it to be real}but it a strange beast.

    And monkeys,let’s face it, are considerably more intelligent and talented than islamic “scholars”……

      FYI asks, “What is wrong with animals?”

      The remark is a justification for genocide.

    Call it what you will … ‘Hinduphobia’, ‘Christianophobia’, ‘Sikh-phobia’, ‘Jew Hatred’, ‘Atheist-o-phobia’ or general ‘Kafir-o-phobia’ …. Muslims call the hatred of KAFIRS by its correct, canonical, official ISLAMIC name of ‘AL WALAA WAL BARAA’ (comradeship among Muslims versus segregation from kafirs). Islam is the only religion that demands that hatred and hostility be directed against ‘others’ for the purposes of official discrimination and subjugation.

    If you do not know and master the teaching of ‘AL WALAA WAL BARAA’ and you refuse to learn it, you will never understand the MOTIVE of all Islam. Hatred is the core motive in Islam.

      True

    • Wellington says

      May 18, 2020 at 12:02 pm

      Agreed, mortimer. That phrase, Al Walaa wal Baraa, sums up why Islam will never treat with non-Muslims on an equal level. Grasp the full implication of this phrase, as you have mentioned many times, and it should leave no doubt that Islam is deserving of no respect and should always be regarded with great suspicion and disdain.

      Put another way, Islam is an enemy of mankind (all totalitarian ideologies are). I certainly see Islam this way and Al Walaa wal Baraa succinctly conveys this.

      I also agree, Mortimer, that this hatred of all non-Muslims, which you often draw attention to, Muslim comradeship and segregation from, and subjugation of, non-Muslims, is the crux of the problem with Islam. All the vile Muslim behaviours seem to stem from this attitude. Muslims inevitably seem to have a bad, hate-filled attitude towards all of the non-Muslims of the world. It really is them or us, and there’s just no getting along with Islam.

      Yes–important point, Mortimer.

    And to think of it, this idiot and some others like him with an IQ of less than 50 are rewarded with Sahitya Academy Awards ( highest literary honor in the country)!! What’s wrong with the people selecting such morons? People like him need to go their own planets with no contact with humans on the earth!

      One thing I can say with 100% certainty:

      Munawwar Rana needs a new dental plan…

      • tim gallagher says

        May 18, 2020 at 6:05 pm

        Spot on, James. Those huge gaps between this guy’s fangs certainly struck me. If the “award” he somehow received involved winning money, then he should have spent it on trying to get his teeth fixed. Of course, such things are trivial and irrelevant, but he definitely sounds like a loathsome creature who has the usual extremely nasty outlook on non-Muslims that almost all Muslims are infected with.

    • Rufolino says

      May 19, 2020 at 4:08 am

      The guy looks exactly as I imagine a poet to look. The beauty of poetry radiates from his sensitive features.

      In England he would become the Poet Laureate. (“What a fantastic contribution Moslems make to national life”. David Cameron.)

    ……………….

    Grotesque but not surprising.

    More:

    Munawwar Rana was awarded the Sahitya Akademi Award in 2014 by the same ‘fascist’ Modi government he keeps whining against.
    ……………….

    He returned that award the next year and saying that he would never accept another government award.

      True and applicable to Muslims all over! I slightly modified your statement :

      >”this is the real face of all muslims. ever demanding ungrateful people who have full support of media and western countries.<"

      LOL…

    What are the India elected officials saying about this inbred idiot ?,What is the India MSM saying about this this:idiot?Is it the western media job to tell India media what to say?Are the elected officials in India without a spine that they cannot condemn this idiot without “western” government permission?Time for the India people to elect people who promote protection them from Jihad . Is the India media in a vacuum that they cannot speak out against Jihad without “western” government permission??I though they left being a colony of England over 70 years ago?Are “western countries’ exporting more Muslims to India from Europe?Are “western countries” encouraging Muslim “refugees to invade India by the millions??Do any European or North American countries have a 70 year old border with India??Islam is a world wide problem ,in Asia,Africa,North America,Europe,you have to look for your own media and locally elected government officials to reject the lie that Islam is the religion of peace.

    If he is a “human” with looks like that how does an animal look like? Jokes aside how can any country live with a population which is totally driven by hatred and murder?

    You stink Mian Munawwar. From every pore of your wretched body. Quit our country and
    go to Pakistan. That was made for you. ASAP

    Not enough animals and too many “humans” in my opinion.

    “Munawwar Rana was awarded the Sahitya Akademi Award in 2014 by the same ‘fascist’ Modi government he keeps whining against. ”

    “Fascist” or “Nazi” seems to be a common term for Hindus in India used by Muslims and some Hindu themselves.

    Well, if you cannot argue/debate against them or reply to what Hindus say, just call them “Fascists or Nazis”

    Job done.

    Almost as good as “racist”
