Turkey: Muslim cleric demands invasion of Cyprus for the sake of Islam and Muhammad’s aunt

Oct 1, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer 22 Comments

“The Ottoman navy greeted the Prophet Muhammad’s aunt, Umm Haram (known as Hala Sultan), with gunfire as they passed near Cyprus. The tomb of Hala Sultan, who participated in the first Muslim expedition to the sea, is under Greek occupation. Let us greet Hala Sultan again and tell her we will be coming soon.”

Erdogan and his supporters grow ever more open about their revanchist caliphate dreams.

“Turkish Imam demands invasion of Cyprus for the sake of Islam and Mohammed’s aunty,” by Paul Antonopoulos, Greek City Times, September 29, 2020:

İhsan Şenocak, one of the leading Turkish imams, promotes the aggressive foreign policy agenda of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, urging Turkey to occupy the rest of Cyprus as it is the burial site of Islam’s founder, Mohammed.

“The Ottoman navy greeted the Prophet Muhammad’s aunt, Umm Haram (known as Hala Sultan), with gunfire as they passed near Cyprus.

The tomb of Hala Sultan, who participated in the first Muslim expedition to the sea, is under Greek occupation,” said Şenocak.

“Let us greet Hala Sultan again and tell her we will be coming soon,” the imam wrote on Twitter, showing a video of Turkish sailors forming the words “Mavi Vatan” (Blue Homeland) on a Turkish frigate.

The tomb of Umm Haram is located in southern Cypriot city of Larnaca.

Şenocak, a radical pro-Erdoğan imam, is the founder of the so-called Center for Scientific and Intellectual Research (İlmi ve Fikri Araştırmalar Merkezi, or İFAM) and is close to prominent Turkish personalities and groups.

In recent years he has been a speaker at conferences and lectures funded by pro-government groups and institutions.

İFAM organized a series of conferences entitled “Diriliş” (Resurrection) across the country in collaboration with the controversial Foundation for Human Rights, Freedoms and Humanitarian Aid (IHH) and the Sokyal Doku Foundation, led by the preacher Yıldız, who has repeatedly called for armed jihad.

Speaking at one of the Diriliş conferences held in November 2016, Şenocak said that a Muslim army would be sent from Constantinople (Κωνσταντινούπολη, Turkish: İstanbul) to conquer Jerusalem and that the Jews could not prevent it….

      Arn, that would be the Religion of Peace website:

      https://www.thereligionofpeace.com

      This is an excellent and important Anti-Jihad site.

      Jihad Watch uses their counter; it is at the right-hand side of the page.

        Thank you very much Sir.
        I’ve been searching this website for some time as i used to visit it years ago
        (i use ex muslim websites as source as anyone non muslim critizing islam is instantly called nazi or considered not trustworthy,as this goes against the “woke” code
        to tell the value of information from the messanger,but as soon as it is a muslim they are willing to listen)
        either i spelled it wrong or google is surpressing the website on my mobile device.

          Thank you, Arn–glad to help.

          And I have noticed that Google and other search engines make this site *very* hard to find–you have to type it into the address line and use the exact spelling, or it will not come up. Very disturbing.

      Not ‘demands’ … delusional certainty of victory!

      First Cyprus, then the Mediterranean! Then they will return to Vienna and Rome.

      (They aren’t kidding.)

        After all there are rumours that the great-great great grandchild of mohammed’s third cousin once removed by marriage just might possibly be buried in or near Vienna. Hence islam’s right to own Vienna.

    The image is very funny, this crazy fundamentalist (standard muslim) looks like a caricature, a giant head compared to the body. Reminds me of achmed the dead terrorist

      The Muslim hair styles are based on the commandment of Mohammed that they cultivate a weird mustache and beard style to make them recognizable to other jihadists and distinct from Christians in particular. This reduced the risk of accidentally killing another Muslim instead of a dirty kafir.

      The Muslim hair style is motivated by hatred directed by Muslims against the kufaar.

        True, Mortimer. Pretty much *everything* about Muslims is motivated by their hatred of Infidels.

    Turkey is never satisfied how much land they have stolen and still occupy us till today none of Cyprus belongs to them Umm haram the witch was the invader of Cyprus not Greek Cypriots we are indeginous there umm Haram was thrown of a horse and died same way Erdogan fell of a horse but sadly survived. I have seen the mosque where the buriel site is where witch umm Haram is buried it’s in Larnaca the Turkish army should leave and if they want umm Haram so badly they can unbury her and take the corpse back to turkey with them. That Iman is a hate preacher Islam is hate and lies

      We should never forget that Erdolf was once beaten up by a horse who kicked him in the balls.I cannot get that image out of my mind from that video you posted.

      It was if the Horse was saying.

      ‘ YOU erdogan,YOU an ottoman warrior?You are kidding, right?Get off me!Get off!
      Just for that i’m going to publicly humiliate you and kick you in the balls”

    This is another Islamic bigot pushing for an expansion!! Rubbish, even if Cyprus is the burial site of your rubbish prophet; that doesn’t mean you must invade it. The West is watching to intervene!!!

      Sense of deja vu here. This the familiar sabre-rattling before an invasion.

      Der Fuhrer Erdogan is merely trying to re-unite the Nation of Islam and Turks. Cyprus is ripe for return to the Fatherland – it has always been Turkish as evidenced by the huge Turkish population.

      Armenia? That community of infidel refugees can always be re-ordered by agreement with the Russians – maybe they will agree to share half of it.

      Only the tiny weak nation of Greece opposes our plans across the Aegean Channel – we will neutralize the Greeks soon enough. We have the most powerful Luftwaffe in Europe.

      Meanwhile the Turkish Nationals in Turkish Deutschland are already clamoring to be united with the Fatherland : it`s already Oktober and the Jewpigs are still rampant – Kristallnacht is overdue.

      But Boris is no Winston even if he has a token RAF presence on the island.

    Make no mistake about this, Erdogan is a megalomaniac who believes he is on some sort of divine mission for allah, he actually believes he is the mahdi. A very very dangerous man.

    Turkey: Muslim cleric demands invasion of Cyprus for the sake of Islam and Muhammad’s aunt
    ………………….

    What are the chances that Muhammad’s aunt lived in Cyprus, when he himself never left Arabia?

    In fact, she was not even Muhammad’s aunt–assuming she is a historical figure at all:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umm_Haram

    Besides, the claim that someone’s aunt living somewhere means that her coreligionists have the right to conquer the native people who have lived there for thousands of years? What crap–they just want an excuse to take over more of Cyprus.
