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

Popular Muslim preacher Zakir Naik urges Islamic countries to arrest and prosecute non-Muslim Indians under blasphemy laws

May 16, 2020 8:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

The global anti-India campaign launched by Muslims against India over Kashmir has been accompanied by an al-Qaeda call to jihad against India, Pakistan and Kuwait lobbying for support from the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), smears on social media, and Indians getting  fired for “Islamophobia” in Muslim countries. Now, popular jihadi preacher Zakir Naik has “released a video in which he can be heard asking Islamic countries across the globe to collect data of non-Muslims in India who criticise Islam and arrest them when they land up in their countries and try them under the blasphemy law.”

Naikhas paid people to convert to Islam, inspired the Dhaka jihad massacre, and reportedly inspired the mastermind of the Sri Lanka Easter jihad blasts last year that killed 290 people, among other misdeeds.

“Zakir Naik asks Islamic countries arrest non-Muslims Indians criticising Islam and try them under blasphemy laws,” Opindia, May 13, 2020:

The radical Islamist preacher Zakir Naik has released a video in which he can be heard asking Islamic countries across the globe to collect data of non-Muslims in India who criticise Islam and arrest them when they land up in their countries and try them under the blasphemy law.

In a video going viral on social media, the Islamist preacher says that he would request all the Kuwait lawyers to collect a database of all non-Muslims in India who have ever passed any negative remarks or abused or ‘attacked’ Muslims or Islam, and keep it stored in their computer. Next time when these non-Muslim Indians visit any gulf country, be it Indonesia, Dubai, Kuwait or Saudi Arabia, they should be identified, booked and tried under the laws.

“The rich non-Muslims travel to Gulf and different Muslim countries. If these Muslim countries have data of these people attacking or spreading venom against Muslims, they should arrest them under their (own) law once they enter their territory,” said Naik. The video was first posted on Pakistani-American preacher Yasir Qadhi’s YouTube channel on 23rd April, 2020.

The radical Islamist preacher Zakir Naik is currently living in Malaysia after fleeing India. He is facing charges in India of provoking communal disharmony and indulging in unlawful activities that incited terror in the country.

He is also under investigation in India and Bangladesh for the terror attack at the Holey Artisan Bakery in Dhaka in July 2016.

Radical Islamist Zakir Naik

Radical Islamist Zakir Naik, a Mumbai-born 53-year-old who is the founder of the controversial ‘Peace TV’ has been living in Malaysia since 2017 after fleeing from India and the previous government there had granted permanent residency to him.

Although the current Mahathir administration has barred the controversial Islamic preacher from delivering public speeches, it is yet to take any decision on sending him back to India.

This is not the first time the radical Islamist was heard spewing venom. Speaking on BJP’s decision to repeal Article 370, he had said that Kashmir is being ‘singled out’ because it is a Muslim majority state. Naik had called the situation in Kashmir as an ‘act of war by the BJP government against the biggest Muslim community in the country.’ Adding to his hate speech against the Indian government, Naik ‘warned’ against a Palestine-like situation building up in the state. He even furthered the lie that Kashmiri youth are being arrested and ‘sent to undisclosed jails in and outside Kashmir’…….

    When is this Joker and others like him EVER going to muster the guts to speak up about the persecution of Uighurs by China. Hope he gets packing to an Uighur reeducation camp

      My guess is because he realizes that the Chinese government doesn’t care, and will not listen to anything he has to say, and that the dhimmi stooges in the West are lining up to kiss his a**, and comply.

    Can the Indian government prosecute Muslims that disrespect Hinduism? Didn’t think so.

    • Uma Maheswar Nakka says

      No not at all, Pos N Neg in Sanatana Dharma (so called Hinduism) are always a welcome even on public platform.

    This is yet a further example of the of the weak foundation of Islam. For the imams and the other propagandists for Islam can’t defend Islam, from those who might criticize Islam, with logic and reason so those Muslim in governmental power have to enact “blasphemy laws” to silence those critics of Islam.

    In other words, Islam so terribly lacks rational valid arguments to uphold it ,therefore Muslim leaders use political laws to stop freedom of speech to silence people who have,thought for themselves , did research and discovered the many flaws, errors and contradictions of Islam..

      I think the totalitarian aspects of Islam were not necessarily constructed as a remedy for the weakness of Islamic arguments. Islam’s totalitarian impulse came first, its weak arguments follow after.

  5. Jyoti Prakash Mitra says

    There are genuine reasons of criticising Islam. Zakir Naik thinks that arresting non Muslims will make easy way for conversions. His aim is to destroy Christian homes. He follows Hadiths of the notorious Sultan Mahmud. Beware!

    • eduardo odraude says

      May 16, 2020 at 5:49 pm

      Genuine reasons for criticizing Islam: Muhammad created an expansionist totalitarian theocratic system that can be summed up in some famous words attributed to Muhammad: “War is deceit.” When one studies the Islamic source texts, Qur’an, Hadith, Sira, one finds, if one has an open mind, that Islam is war and deceit above all. Muslims are among the chief victims of Islam, the most powerful brainwashing system in history, a system that has had some 1400 years to put down roots and come to expression in countless details of whole societies.

    Dr Zakir Naik the “mehical” doctor….

    A man who once famously said..

    “I would rather kill myself than commit suicide”

    {Who can compete with the towering intellect of allah’s defenders like naik?}

    A man who thinks muhammed is mentioned in the Book of Isaiah 42
    {since allah insists mo is mentioned in the Bible koran 7 v 157.Is Hercules mentioned in the Bible too because to say mo is in the Bible is as ridiculous as saying Hercules is in the Bible.The Helper of Isaiah 42 refers to the Holy Spirit,NOT a man…but zakir thinks it is muhammed}

    NOW:listen!

    What would a mass-murder of Jews{Abu Dawud 4390} who admitted to being a FALSE prophet{al tabari 6:111}be doing in a JEWISH scripture dedicated to YHWH,a different god to al lah the muslim god?

    zakir naik has the hermeneutic capabilities, intellectual insights,wisdom and sagacity of a toilet brush.

    And “Peace TV”:who is he kidding?How about LOL TV?

    I think it is time for Indians to prosecute the Koran as hate speech under India’s anti-hate laws.

    Dr. Naik should be aware that TWO CAN PLAY THE SAME GAME and that Islam’s primary source documents are filled with hate speech.

    It is my prayer that a group of determined lawyers will prepare the way to fight the Koran, hadiths, Sira and Islam’s canonical commentaries in court.

    Once a legal precedent is set, it will be easier to argue that Islam is indeed a religion of hate, genocide, discrimination and terrorism.

      opposite is only happening. their is only one eternal minority in india. they are muslims.

      Zakir Naik is popular. He is also a joke, says David Wood:

        May 16, 2020 at 6:50 pm

        DW is awesome..seriously,he is an Apologetics Genius.

        His You Tube video {acts17apologetics who killed muhammed?}really cracks me up every time I watch it.

        Some pathetic,wimpy,namby-pamby, cuddly “christians” take issue with DW for challenging muslims.I can’t stand wimps who lack the courage to stand up for their OWN beliefs so it is really great to have gifted Apologetics folk like DW.

        Satire and Humor,in my opinion, are perfectly acceptable tools to use against totalitarianism{be it political or in this case,religious}

        David reminds me of that other David{the one who took out Goliath}

        Last week there was a video out about muhammed proposing marriage to …a baby!

    Excellent idea Mortimer. Was just thinking of it yesterday and will start work on it. The Koran can be brought to the notice of the UN Human Rights Council with a rigorous fact based analysis. It’s pure hate speech and in fact in violation of many UN treaties.

    Reaction would be very interesting, to say the least.

    Many of us will have charming, moderate friends and colleagues who follow the venerable Dr Naik .. Let’s hope that at least a few of them start to see that in a different light given a little time

    Faker Naik @ it again! Mind you, this is real dangerous! I’m surprised the Indian Secret Service simply haven’t kidnapped him back top India, or simply “remove” him. & for Pete’s Sake stop thinking there are different types of Islam. It’s all the one: calling for the subjugation & enslavement of non-Muslims. This dingbat ideology has got to go!

    ………………………..

    *Deeply* disturbing. Will Muslim tyrannies take this tool up on his demands? What about persecuting Infidels on blasphemy charges in general, from all over the world?

    Well, we have the islamaphobia law in the UK,not that any of us non Muslims take,any notice. This was DEMANDED by those cretins in the Muslim Council of GB.Who the HELL do they think they are? We WILL criticise Islam at EVERY opportunity! There is actually no such word because being afriad of Islam is not a phobia at all,it’s very real. In my opinion Islam needs destroying by any means possible!

  15. OLD GUY says

    May 17, 2020 at 11:33 am

    Islam wants to control freedom of speech about anything that sheds a bad light on it. Islamic leadership is a dictatorship controlling every faction of life, and they use hate and violence to maintain that control.

    Naik is amazingly ugly. Allah hates people who are ugly. If he wants to see hatred, look in a mirror.

    Is there any dearth of such mad creatures in Islam.. I wonder..!! U see one and think this is mad. and then U see another one madder and then U see even more mad…. Just goes to infinity…
