“Allah has bought from the believers their selves and their possessions against the gift of Paradise; they fight in the way of Allah; they kill, and are killed….” (Qur’an 9:111)
The bomber appears to have missed his target, which was apparently the prime minister.
“Death toll rises to 16 in overnight Somalia suicide bombing,” Arab News, December 19, 2020:
MOGADISHU: The death toll from a suicide bombing in Somalia has risen to 16, after a number of people hurt in the blast succumbed to their injuries overnight, security sources told AFP on Saturday.
Initially, six people including three senior military officials were killed on Friday when a suicide bomber attacked a stadium in the Somali city of Galkayo, ahead of the planned arrival of the country’s prime minister.
But a local security official told AFP by telephone on Saturday: “The number of people who have died in the blast increased this morning, 16 people, most of them civilians, died, according to the information we have.”
Police official Ahmed Abdiasiz said: “The location where the blast occurred was overcrowded … so that many people who sustained serious injuries died later. Apart from the members of the army nearly 10 civilians also died in the blast.”
The militant group Al-Shabab has claimed responsibility for the attack, which took place as a crowd waited for the arrival of Prime Minister Mohamed Hussein Roble.
The stadium is located in the south of Galkayo, the capital of the north-central Mudug region, and 600 km north of Mogadishu….

What was predicted in the first century AD in the New Testament of the Bible had been fulfilled in the seventh century with Islam. Its false promise of a paradise with many virgins for the jihadist who dis fighting for the cause of Islam. To put it more precisely this cleverly devised story of the virgins in a paradise taught by the imams was predicted in 2 Timothy 4: 3, 4. which reads “For the time is coming when [people] will not tolerate {endure} sound and wholesome instruction, but having ears itching [for something pleasing and gratifying], they will gather to themselves one teacher after another to a considerable number, chosen to satisfy their own liking and to foster the errors they hold, and will turn aside from hearing the truth and wander off into myths and man – made fictions.”
Furthermore, the man who presented the book into the world that teaches the lie of the mansions with 72 virgins is in reality just one of the “many false prophets [that] have gone forth in the world.” 1 John 4:1. And also has its own false message, false angle and is accursed by God. – Galatians 1 : 6 – 9.
