International Union for Muslim Scholars: ‘we are in fear for societies that make other people’s religions targets’

Oct 21, 2020 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer 34 Comments

Al-Qaradaghi said, “the future is for the religion of Islam and we are in fear for the future of societies that make other people’s religions and sanctities legitimate targets.”

The future is for the religion of Islam? Leonard Cohen said it best: “You aren’t going to like what comes after America.”

“We are in fear for the future of societies that make other people’s religions and sanctities legitimate targets” — threat noted.

“Al-Qaradaghi slammed remarks by French President Emmanuel Macron on Islam,” International Union for Muslim Scholars (IUMS), October 15, 2020:

Al-Qaradaghi, the secretary general of the International Union for Muslim Scholars (IUMS), said in a statement on Facebook conveyed to Macron: “Do not worry about our religion, as it never relied on the support of an authority or raised a sword in the face of those who opposed it to impose its banner/self.”

During his speech to unveil a plan aimed at defending France’s secularism, Macron described Islam as “a religion that is in crisis all over the world.”…

Expressing no fear for Islam, Al_Qaradaghi said, “the future is for the religion of Islam and we are in fear for the future of societies that make other people’s religions and sanctities legitimate targets.”

“We are in fear of societies of authorities addicted of making/creating enemies for itself,” the Muslim scholar added.

“We pity a ruler who is still living in crisis and the specter of religious wars of the middle ages,” Al-Qaradaghi said, adding: “If there is a real crisis, it is due to the double standards of some western politicians.”…

“President Macron; you are in a crisis of a moral, humanitarian and political crisis; and Islam cannot bear the burden of fake cartoon leaders who created crises with your sponsorship,” al-Qaradaghi added.

      Exactly. The International Union for Muslim Scholars is unaware of Muslims persecuting those of other religions … they give Muslim bigots a free pass.

      However, to apply university-level scholarly standards to analyze, explore, research and probe the anomalies in Islam is considered ‘phobia’ and unacceptable.

      They want the students and scholars of Islamic texts to see only what they are TOLD TO SEE by the mullahs and tp IGNORE everything they are NOT PERMITTED TO SEE in the Islamic texts … namely, anomalies, inconsistencies, incoherencies, historical problems, ethical problems, textual problems, etc.

      Hoi Polloi, that’s exactly what I thought about the complete drivel this Muslim piece of crap is spouting. Muslims are biggest hypocrites to ever crawl around on this earth. Wherever Muslims have power they treat non-Muslims like garbage. But here they go again, oh, woe is me, the poor Muslims are being picked on. And this piece of Islamic supremacist crap says that the “future is for the religion of Islam’. If that ever comes to pass, this world will be barbaric and hellish. If islam becomes extinct, this world will be transformed into a far better place.

        But the guy is right about one thing: “the future belongs to Islam”. Almost word for word what Hitler told the Germans: “the future is for us !”

        In Europe there is surrender everwhere. Not a word may be spoken against Islam. The recent beheading was not described as an Islamic crime, it was an “Islamist” crime.

        No-go areas abound across Europe. Churches are being attacked and damaged on a daily basis. Priests have been murdered at the altar of God.

        Every day more Moslems with unknown numbers of jihadists among them, arrive in Europe to be welcomed.

          Around 250 of our dingy dinghy visitors have been placed in an old army site, given mobiles, food warmth in a small village in Wales, why, france did not provide that when they were living in the calais jungle, so why is our lousy Gov paying £billions of our taxes for their upkeep. There are more sites like this plus 4 star hotels keeping them safe, warm, whilst some may be plotting jihad etc.

          Rufolino, that’s a great quote from Aristotle. I have written it down. I believe I heard Mark Steyn say something similar, about how the western world could be destroyed through apathy and slackness (or too much tolerance) in a radio interview I heard him do a few years ago here in Australia.

        Other religions other than the religion of peace seem to flourish in Europe, Bhuddists, Jews, Sikhs, Flat Earthers, they all have their places of worship and don’t drive vans into others, or slash them with knives or leave bombs on buses. Mohamedans are free to leave Europe at any time. They can be assisted on to planes and boats with a well aimed boot in the backside.

    Once again the word “scholar” has been demeaned. Rather than speaking in a coherent manner, he ranting as if he were the Guangzhou destroying angel who is going to over power the non-Islamic world. Like so many recherche types, he places himself in front of a bookshelf full of unopened works that appears to have been bought days before.

    When Al Qaradaghi states that “the future is for the religion of Islam and we are in fear for the future of societies that make other people’s religions and sanctities legitimate targets,” sounds like a call for sedition to me. I am not holding my breath, but just maybe, the people of Europe will begin to regain their dignity and courage.

        Islamist ‘scholars’ draw a line around the Islamic source texts … they are ‘OFF LIMITS’ for serious textual criticism.

        They spend their entire careers searching for specious arguments to explain away the anomalies and errors that they find in the Islamic texts.

        ALL of these Islamist scholars know and privately admit that there are some SERIOUS HOLES IN THE ISLAMIST NARRATIVES concerning their source texts.

        The Islamic source texts are clearly of human origin.

        The mullahs all know that because they see the mistakes in them.

          Yes “the holes in the standard narrative” is an epic problem with islamic scholarship and seriously undermines islamic apologetics.
          The koran is clearly of human origin:it also is missing the Wisdom source that is found the Bible.

          BTW,do you know something that is great for making HOLES?

          An AXE*.

          It is as if the scholars of islam took an AXE{in a metaphorical sense}and dug out all those HOLES in the koran.

          An AXE is great for making holes in stuff.

          *[Legal disclaimer:regarding the mention of the word Axe in this context it should be understood that at no times is it to be considered as an invitation to use it for unlawful purposes and when using an AXE at all times please remember to wear glasses and -‘safety first’]

    moslims ***fear**** the Truth. moslims “target” other religions. moslims “target” societies that are not dominated by islam’s lawlessness and demonic depravity.

    It’s always the same thing: terrorize, manipulate, lie and whine.

    A psychopath targets other people for his/her own desires, needs, and entertainment…without any regard for the other person’s feelings, needs, wants or interests. A psychopath manipulates other people…in their thinking, emotions, and actions in order to cause that one to do things for the psychopath’s needs and pleasures.
    The psychopath lies throughout. He’ll lie and say he **loves** his victim, that he **needs** this or that, things the victim has, and he will use any deception…even sometimes tinged with a hint of truth…to take what he wants.
    When the psychopath does not get his way, he complains, whines, cries and makes a nuisance of himself. If that doesn’t work, the psychopath will use anger and violence to get what he wants.
    When things go wrong, the psychopath excuses himself from all blame…it’s always someone else’s fault.

    The psychopath is a thief. He takes and takes and takes…even so far as everything another has that he wants…money, affection, etc. until that victim has no more to give…and then the psychopath moves on to another victim
    The psychopath only gives back evil…pain, hurt, damage, helplessness, etc.and in many cases, he gives death.

    moslims are psychopaths. islam feeds the psychopathic personality and bolsters it.
    Psychopaths are like satan…he steals, kills and destroys. satan whined to God when Job had “everything” and satan wanted to take it all away. He then stole and murdered to take everything Job had.

    moslims see what they want and if they can’t *whine it away from the victim,* they use violence and take it.

      I find your comment about PSYCHOPATH interesting,it reminds me of:

      THE DARK TRIAD (which is manifested by many Muslims)

      It is a concept well-known among redpillers/blackpillers.

      In psychology, the dark triad comprises the personality traits of:

      1.NARCISSISM:

      an INFLATED SENSE of their own IMPORTANCE

      2.MACHIAVELLIAN:

      very good at MANIPULATION.

      3.PSYCHOPATH

      A. They are BORN that WAY

      B. And are INCAPABLE of Feeling REMORSE and EMPATHY (they never have nightmares over their evil acts )

      C. And are usually VERY CHARISMATIC/CHARMING, since they have Utter SELF-CONFIDENCE

      (you can insult them, demean them, and it Never Has an Effect on their Self-Esteem)

        All very true…with the exception that some experts say they are made by their environment and not “born” that way. I think they are born with the inclination and it gets enhanced by their environment, upbringing, parenting or lack thereof.

        They feel they cannot make mistakes and as you say, they lack empathy and remorse. They also cannot see the full consequences of their actions and choices, and never learn from their mistakes….probably because they don’t admit to them.

        They cheat and steal from their family and never really have a successful love life. That’s why it’s so easy for moslims to murder their family members, wives, children, sisters, etc.

        And the psychopath ***never*** appreciates any thing done for him, so he is eternally ungrateful and always seeking the *next* time someone treats him kindly, or with respect, never acknowledging that he has received anything from anyone.

        I met, and got to know,, a couple of them when they were only 11 years old and I met and got to know one really bad one when he and I were both young adults. Child and adult psychopaths are two peas in a pod. Same characteristics, but the adult is more adept at manipulation and lies.

          Hello,from what I know,those who become that way are SOCIOPATHS,and the WORST psychopath in World History was:

          MADOFF,who stole 70 BILLION dollars using a PONZI scheme that
          duped banks and financers and “experts”. His son was so ashamed that he commited suicide because of his father’s actions.

          Madoff has never shown any remorse.

    “We are in fear of societies of authorities addicted of making/creating enemies for itself”, said al-Qaradaghi.

    Islam specifies enemies for itself. The kafir is the enemy: the Koran says so: “between us and you enmity and hatred forever” (K 60:4).

    The fear he says they are in is self-inflicted.
    Islam is the self-declared enemy of every other form of governance – democracy, communism, socialism, monarchy,: “Muslims reject democracy and secularism!” (placard).
    Islam is the self-declared enemy of every other religion in the world: “Islam will dominate” say the placards.

    LEGAL AUTHORITIES IN VARIOUS COUNTRIES HAVE AFFIRMED THE RIGHT TO BLASPHEME:

    – The Irish Law Reform Commission’s 1991 Report opined that “there is no place for the offence of blasphemous libel in a society which respects freedom of speech.”

    It refused to allow the prosecution, stating “in the absence of any legislative definition of the constitutional offence of blasphemy, it is impossible to say of what the offence of blasphemy consists … In the absence of legislation and in the present uncertain state of the law the Court could not see its way to authorising the institution of a criminal prosecution”.

    -The Supreme Court of India on Monday 3 March 2014, dismissed a public interest litigation (PIL) by Advocate M L Sharma seeking intervention by the court in directing the Election Commission to curb hate speeches. Dismissing the plea, the Apex court said that it could not curb the fundamental right of the people to express themselves.

    “We cannot curtail fundamental rights of people. It is a precious right guaranteed by Constitution,” a bench headed by Justice RM Lodha said, adding “we are a mature democracy and it is for the public to decide. We are 1280 million people and there would be 1280 million views. One is free not to accept the view of others”. Also the court said that it is a matter of perception, and a statement objectionable to a person might be normal to another person.

    -Justice Clark in 1952 wrote: “[I]t is enough to point out that the state has no legitimate interest in protecting any or all religions from views distasteful to them. … It is not the business of government in our nation to suppress real or imagined attacks upon a particular religious doctrine.”

    -Justice Frankfurter noted that beliefs “ … dear to one may seem the rankest ‘sacrilege’ to another,” and added concerning “sacrilegious” speech: “[H]istory does not encourage reliance on the wisdom and moderation of the censor.”

    CHARLIE HEBDO commented in NYT

    “…the kind of blasphemy that Charlie Hebdo engaged in had deadly consequences, as everyone knew it could … and that kind of blasphemy is precisely the kind that needs to be defended, because it’s the kind that clearly serves a free society’s greater good. If a large enough group of someones is willing to kill you for saying something, then it’s something that almost certainly needs to be said, because otherwise the violent have veto power over liberal civilization, and when that scenario obtains it isn’t really a liberal civilization any more. Again, liberalism doesn’t depend on everyone offending everyone else all the time, and it’s okay to prefer a society where offense for its own sake is limited rather than pervasive. But when offenses are policed by murder, that’s when we need more of them, not less, because the murderers cannot be allowed for a single moment to think that their strategy can succeed.” – Ross Douthat, NYT, January 7, 2015

    And we are in fear of societies that make other people targets for religion.

    Your ignorant and violent superstition does not supersede our right to live free in our own nations. That’s all you need to know. There’s no debate or fine tuning that can make that any clearer. We’ll worry about our cartoons and free speech, you worry about all that terror and murder committed for your religion, fair?

    President Macron; you are in a crisis of a moral, humanitarian and political crisis; and Islam cannot bear the burden of fake cartoon leaders who created crises with your sponsorship,” al-Qaradaghi added.

    If we are in a crisis it’s because we let muslims into our nations, people who live for a violent religion that declares “unbelievers” the enemies of allah. If “Islam cannot bear the burden of fake cartoon leaders” then that’s an adjustment muslims need to make within themselves, you don’t tell us what to draw or laugh at. We determine that independent of the religious retardation you pass off as godly truth.

    It’s time for the ummah to begin the long, hard journey to the world of rational thinking and sound morality, without all that demon stuff. A lot has happened in the last 1400 years. It’s time to catch up, and free yourself and all humanity from the slavery and terror that allah has brought to the world.

    Looking critical at the website. It is based in Qatar (the Muslim brotherhood). Furthermore, the site is fresh, since it contains almost nothing, some site pages are not even ready and news item go no further than 3.

    It is mend to incite hatred and jihad in France: 1) delegitimizing Marcon as a middle-aged goon, while not speaking of French law 2) mentioning the protection of world’s sacred religious symbols (Mo), while Mo promotes vilifying, desecrating, destroying, exterminating any other religious symbol, but himself and his precious Allah.
