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

Sweden: Companies controlled by Islamic State and al-Shabaab jihadis get $140,000,000 of taxpayer money

Aug 29, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

This is no surprise. Non-Muslims paying for the upkeep of Muslims is a Qur’anic dictate:

“Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor 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).

The caliph Umar said the jizya payments from the dhimmis were the source of the Muslims’ livelihood:

“Narrated Juwairiya bin Qudama at-Tamimi: We said to `Umar bin Al-Khattab, ‘O Chief of the believers! Advise us.’ He said, ‘I advise you to fulfill Allah’s Convention (made with the Dhimmis) as it is the convention of your Prophet and the source of the livelihood of your dependents (i.e. the taxes from the Dhimmis.)’” (Bukhari 4.53.388)

UK jihad preacher Anjem Choudary said in February 2013:

“We are on Jihad Seekers Allowance, We take the Jizya (protection money paid to Muslims by non-Muslims) which is ours anyway. The normal situation is to take money from the Kafir (non-Muslim), isn’t it? So this is normal situation. They give us the money. You work, give us the money. Allah Akbar, we take the money. Hopefully there is no one from the DSS (Department of Social Security) listening. Ah, but you see people will say you are not working. But the normal situation is for you to take money from the Kuffar (non-Muslim) So we take Jihad Seeker’s Allowance.”

“Radical Islamists Harvest $140 Million Through Deals With Swedish State – Report,” Sputnik News, August 28, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

According to the news agency Siren, some of the companies receiving Swedish taxpayers’ money are controlled by individuals who have fought for Daesh* in the Middle East and al-Shabaab* in Africa….

Companies run by Islamists in Sweden have received over one billion kronor through deals with municipalities and the Swedish state, the newspaper Aftonbladet reported, citing a review that mapped Islamists’ economic connections to the Swedish state.

According to the review by the news agency Siren, there are 550 individuals in Sweden affiliated with extreme Islamism, including people who have been part of Daesh and al-Shabaab as well as fundamentalist Salafists who want to introduce sharia law.

Furthermore, according to Siren, about 50 companies and organisations that feature Islamist capital or management, have done business or entered deals with the Swedish state or municipalities. The list includes everything from moving companies to independent schools run by Islamists. From 2015 to 2019, their transactions amounted to 1.2 billion SEK ($140 million).

Above all, it is about agreements between independent schools and municipalities. The Safir School in Gothenburg and the Norrland-based parent cooperative Bilaal have raised the most money. More than SEK 150 million ($17.3 million) has been secured through municipal agreements with the education company Edinit, a subsidiary of the al-Azhar Foundation that operates in about 30 municipalities predominanty [sic] in Stockholm and Västmanland counties and is driven by people from radical Islamist milieus, Aftonbladet reported.

The list also features a Stockholm-based fruit supplier that delivered fruit worth millions of kronor to the Public Prosecutor’s Office and about 20 other authorities. In Skåne County, a moving company run by Islamists has been hired by several municipalities….

    This is why we should never do business with anyone who believes in that evil ideology.

    It’s easy to mismanage one’s own money. It’s easier to mismanage other people’s money.

      It is Swedish government which is guilty, too. Why do they take so many terrorists?
      The first terrorists who came to Sweden were somalis.
      Sweden is now burnign in Malmoe and policemen are afraid to stop it.
      300 terrorists practically destroyed Malmoe and police baeg the government for the support to stop it not only in Malmoe but all over the country

    This article quotes “Sputnik News” (Putin mouthpiece) which in turn cites “the news agency Siren,” but who is that? I found some other articles that cite “news agency Siren,” but is that a news agency or some of “Putin’s people” (KGB)?

      Curious, sometimes you get to choose your news sources, sometimes you don’t. Still worth reporting, though.

        @gravenimage, two engineers founded a site that checks 50,000 sites to see what stories are covered where on the political spectrum. Different sides can have different blind spots for stories they don’t want to believe, and different sides can fall for fake news that they want to believe:

    Today many Muslims want to leave Islam but are afraid that they will be killed by their fellow religionists. Hence the Muslims must be first shown a safe path to renounce Islam. https://sanatanaparishaad.blogspot.com/

    It is going to get worse, the more you give muslims/islamics the more they will want and take.
