“Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious.” — Ayatollah Khomeini
“Pakistan bans ‘caress, hug’ scenes from TV for being against Islam, their culture,” OneIndia, October 23, 2021:
Pakistan’s broadcasting authiority [sic] has been receiving several complaints against so called intimate scenes on Pakistani television and has asked channels not to air them. Some of The intimate scenes objected to are however as mild as characters caressing or hugging.
Wellington says
Fitting, since love is un-Islamic. And, a la that old, twisted bastard, Ayatollah Khomeini, fun too.
The sickness which is Islam is never ending. There are few guarantees in life but this is one of them.
tim gallagher says
Yes, Wellington, there’s no fun in islam and there’s no human affection in Islam. May as well say that there is nothing human allowed in islam and leave it at that. As you say, the sickness in islam is profound. Then again, since murdering non-Muslims is very much approved of in islam, and murdering other Muslims who aren’t pure enough is approved of, and raping non-Muslims is approved of, and stoning people to death in honour killings, and so on, I guess there is actually plenty of fun to be indulged in, within islam, if a person is a satanically evil piece of totally inhuman crap. But any of the more noble and civilised aspects of human life are banned in Islam. It is a very sick and twisted ideology, that’s for sure.
Infidel says
I’m sure that Imran Khan is totally behind this, and is enjoying it, never mind that it’s completely different from the life he used to lead back in the day, when he wasn’t busy manipulating things in the Pakistan cricket board
Speaking of which, yesterday after the World Cup T20 cricket match b/w Pakistan and India, the Pak interviewer while congratulating the Pak captain told him, ‘The infidels were totally destroyed’, to which the captain responded, ‘It was the will of allah’
Wonder whether the ICC will take any action against the 2 of them for bringing far more disrepute to the game than the usual sledging, disputing umpiring decisions or even match fixing? To think that poor South Africa, which was guilty of far less even during the Apartheid regime, was kept out of international cricket for almost 3 decades
tim gallagher says
I didn’t know that about the cricket, Infidel. I saw a brief report on the nightly TV news about Pakistan beating India, which was a surprise, and an amazingly easy win (well, these things happen sometimes) and I am never happy seeing Pakistan, which seems like an appalling country in every way, win anything. I have felt for ages that Pakistan should have been banned from all international cricket years ago. Any non-Muslims there are treated like garbage from every report I see about Pakistan. I guess they never will be banned though. So it’s the “will of allah” when Pakistan win. But I think Pakistan lose more often than they win, so allah must be asleep on the job when they get beaten all those times. I noticed that there was a blow up in a game between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. The TV news report said players nearly came to blows and showed a couple of players getting in one another’s faces. Not sure what that was about, but it was the only bit of that game that they showed. On Pakistan, I can’t see the people who run cricket ever taking any action against Pakistan. As you point out, it is so different from what was done to South Africa all those years ago. I meant to ask you, Infidel, when you mention that appalling regime in China and the fact that India is very much a target for China’s aggression, is that simply because those two countries are such massive powers in Asia, with both having over a billion people. Both are giants. Australia has only 25 million people. I see China as seeking to dominate the world and probably, one day, trying to challenge the USA, but has there always been antagonism between China and India? I know they have had border disputes from time to time. Pakistan must be a problem for India although I suspect that India could smash Pakistan if things ever turned really nasty.

Amazingly for 2 countries next to each other, China and India never had any history before 1962. Reason being that the Himalayas prevented either country from invading the other, although Tibet, despite being bordered by mountains, hasn’t been as lucky
The reason there is a conflict today, according to Gordon Chang, is that China thinks that population is power, and they have a stagnant population whereas India still has a growing population, and so China feels threatened by India. Interestingly enough, India to this day does not believe like China that population is power, and they still have a 2-child policy, which China has returned to after decades of a 1-child policy. The only good thing about India in terms of population is that they do meet the replacement rate of 2.1, although demographically, muslims have a higher growth rate than Hindus, which, if left unchecked, could have serious repercussions in about 15-20 years. Unlike the Chinese though, the Indians don’t have forced abortions or any of the other punitive measures against parents, but they just cut off welfare benefits to people who violate that law. Problem is that muslims don’t care about that law and have several kids anyway, whereas Hindus dutifully stick to 2 kids or less not only b’cos of decades of indoctrination but also b’cos 2 kids are more affordable
Raja says
Tim Gallagher,
Pak has never beaten India in any the world cup matches before this recent one. So it was will of allah that Pak should lose all the matches. As Infidel has pointed out, the two who shared about beating infidels should be punished for taking the venomous islam to the public domain. This only shows how retarded the Islamist mind is.
Cricket is a money spinning activity for those in the field. Then there is mafia who run the show. There is all kinds of nepotism etc that comes to the fore every now and then. India seems to have goofed up at every level in this particular match.
tim gallagher says
THanks for the information, Infidel and Raja. That is very interesting about the situation between China and India, Infidel. I just wrote a long reply but it doesn’t seem to have gone through, so I won’t write a long comment again. Infidel, what you say about the problems that India might face through the high birth levels of the Muslims there rings true. Definitely a worry for the future. Raja, the Muslims’ comments on the cricket were very offensive, but only what I would expect. India seem to have had an off day in that match. It happens from time to time to very good teams in every sport. Anyway, thanks for the information from both of you.

There si no love in Islam, only sex and the women are not allowed to even enjoy that, hence FGM. Every woman is there to pleasure men and must live their life in a tent so that men cannot be attracted to them. Even so women in Islamic countries are often groped by men even though they are covered up.
mortimer says
Wellington is exactly right: love is un-Islamic. The purpose of Islamic marriage is not mutual affection, but something more in the nature of sexual servitude. The Muslim male pays a dowry as a downpayment on the woman’s sexual ‘availability’ which is to be unlimited.
Islam’s founder said:
– “Women are like cows, horses, and camels, for all are ridden,” is in fact recorded in Tafsir al-Qurtubi (see vol. 17, p. 172)
– “Treat women well, for they are [like] domestic animals [awan] with you and do not possess anything for themselves. You have taken them only as a trust from God and you have made the enjoyment of their persons lawful by the word of God, so understand and listen to my words.”
So there you have Islam’s view of women : they are prisoners, animals, dogs, donkeys, deficient, a plaything, only half-human. It would be bad enough if these were the words of one of Islam’s spokesmen…in that case, they could be disavowed…but these are the words of ‘holy prophet’ himself. Islam and its supreme authority are shocking, shameful, disgusting …and humiliating to the intellect!
How can any man be a Muslim and not feel ashamed of its prophet?

Good exchange.

Wellington: so fun is forbidden on idleness but raking little girls and non-Muslim girls is ok in Islam let alone thighing ?is ok in Islam especially according to khoneini

mortimer says
What value does the Koran place on ‘love’? (I’m glad you asked.)
There are over 400 references in the Koran to hate, over 300 references in the Koran to Allah and FEAR, but there are only 49 references to love. Of these love references, 39 are negative such as the 14 negative references to love of money, power, other gods and status.
Three verses command humanity to love Allah and only 2 verses are about how Allah loves a believer. There are 25 verses about how Allah does NOT love kafirs (disbelievers).
This leaves 5 verses about love. Of these 5 verses, 3 are about loving kin or a Muslim brother. One verse commands a Muslim to give money for the love of Allah. This leaves only one quasi-universal verse about love: give what you love to zakat-charity and even this is contaminated by dualism since Muslim zakat-charity only goes to other Muslims. There are OVER 400 teachings of HATE directed against all disbelievers: Jews, Christians, Idolaters and Kafirs.
So much for love. HATE and FEAR are what Allah demands in the Koran.
How can we expect Muslims love the kafir, if a Muslim is not even required to love his wife?
gravenimage says
Thanks for that breakdown, Mortimer. Most references to “Love” in the Qur’an is what “Allah” *does not love*.
No references to either romantic love or loving one’s children–generally the most profound forms of human love.
revereridesagain says
Pakistan has tv?
gravenimage says
There are a handful of Pakistani TV stations, revereridesagain–you can get a sense of what they are like from one being named “DunyaTV” (“Dunya” generally refers to the material world that Muslims are supposed to reject, or the territorial world that they are supposed to violently conquer).
Most Pakistanis get the bulk of their content–and probably pretty much the only stuff worth watching–by satellite from India. My guess is that this ban is mostly aimed at Indian films and TV shows.
Infidel says
Bollywood is mainly tripe, is done in Urdu and is more compatible w/ the culture in Pakistan than the one in India. Most Bollywood stars are unabashedly pro muslim, if not pro Pakistan. Despite that, Pakistan puts the screws on Bollywood when it comes to broadcast rights

Sadly, I do know this, Infidel.
Rarely says
No fun in islam??? Kinda limits what they can put on their recruitment posters doesn’t it?. “JOIN ISLAM AND HAVE NO FUN”. People would be lined up for miles.
They are banned from enjoying killing?? I guess they can kill but not enjoy it. Just like the masochist who likes to take a cold shower so he takes a warm one.
I suppose they get no fun out of raping non-muslim girls or young muslim boys. So why do it? So that they don’t have fun. Their peculiar form of masochism I suppose.
And boy do they hate all those Rolls-Royces too.
All that stoning is good for strengthening the arm for cricket which they hate playing. Now playing cricket and not enjoying it IS something I can understand.
So, what’s the greatest non-fun a person can have? Hypocrisy!! It outweighs all the other non-funs.
There’s no room for fun in islam and hypocrisy is not fun. Be a hypocrite. There you go.
(I didn’t have any fun writing this).

We know that. However, you Khomeini forgot one more description of the Satanic Islam, to sum it ‘there is no humanity in Islam’, ‘there is ONLY misery and extreme violence in Islam’. Enjoy until you be beheaded by one of yours or eternity in hell.
sidney penny says
What! Do you mean the Pakistanis cannot watch Bollywood movies from India?
Or their own Pallywood movies?
Both have lots of caressing or hugging and God forbid now even kissing.
Ada says
All true as to Islam, but romantic love as we know it in Western civilization has a history/a genesis too. See Swiss thinker Denis de Rougemont’s seminal study, Love in the Western World.
