Imagine how embarrassed British officials will be when they find that many Islamic charities have been discovered to be funding jihad, and that the antisemitism expressed here is actually quite common in the Islamic world; it is not just the province of “extremists.” But by then it will likely be far too late.
“Regulator investigates as Islamic charity website urges Muslims to fund jihad,” by Daisy Stephens, LBC, October 4, 2021:
A London-based Islamic charity is being investigated after material was found on its website that praised the Taliban and encouraged Muslims to fund jihadists, according to reports
The Miftahul Jannah Academy in Waltham Forest is being investigated by the Charity Commission after the material, by Islamic scholar Muhammad Patel, was flagged by the National Secular Society.
There is also anti-semitic material on there referring to the “dirty qualities” of jews [sic], The Times newspaper reported.
As well as the Miftahul Jannah Academy, the National Secular Society also referred the Masjid-e-Umer Trust, which also hosts lectures by Patel.
The Masjid-e-Umer Trust runs Walthamstow Central Mosque.
One lecture, delivered by Patel on the anniversary of 9/11, refers to the Taliban’s “amazing victory” and says that people can now “openly” pray for the group.
In another lecture dated 2019, Patel says Muslims should give money to jihadists to fund “recruitment” and that, if they neglect jihad, they will face “humiliation” in front of non-Muslims.
A third video refers to the “dirty” and “wretched” qualities of Jewish people….

Please consider a suggestion: As long as we surrender language to the enemy, their words serve to hide the truth. Jihad is a term most reading here understand. WE KNOW. But the problem is that a large number do not know and don’t want to be bothered with finding out. Jihad is war, slaughter, murder and slavery. The more frequently it is described in detail, I THINK there is a better chance to get a few “undecided” and “ignorant” to find out what they don’t know. Jihad is too often glossed over by delusional and misinformed people to be nothing more than fervent religious practice. It is violence and brutality at its worst and has been for 1400 years, with between 250 and 1000 MILLION dead people to prove it.

I agree with you, Frank. But, specifics here, how do you inform ignorant dhimmis galore, true lambs for the slaughter, of just how inimical Islam actually is to Western Civilization?
I have “located” two types of such dhimmis. One is the person with a sense that there is something terribly wrong with Islam but is too lazy, just can’t be bothered, to investigate this “matter” anymore. Millions upon millions here sadly.
The second kind of dhimmi is worse. This is the rube who is only too ready to denigrate Western Civilization, all the while overlooking all the egregious abominations perpetrated over the centuries by the Islamic world—and not even realizing that the Western world has been far more productive than the Islamic world and has as well acknowledged its wrongdoings and has made many attempts (most unappreciated) to make up for these errors.
Stupidity, laziness, willful ignorance, sometimes outright exculpation of evil, are just some of the problems facing the very compromised West today, led by useful idiots aplenty like Trudeau, Pope Francis, Joe Biden, BoJo, Macron, Merkel, et al.
Your turn if you care.
abu taleb says
Maybe, those useful idiots like Trudeau, Pope Francis, Joe Biden, BoJo, Macron, Merkel, et al. are not that ignorant, but they prefer to be in bed with Islam to get their evil wish for power. Creepy Biden for example, importing illegal migrants and close eyes for their crime so that the illegal migrants will vote for Democrat party.
Frank Anderson says
W., I assure you that WE both Care. I spent a lot of time for about a year in the company of a “multi-level marketing group” because I enjoyed their company and learned a lot through “primacy, recency and repetition”. One of many jewels of wisdom is to understand as part of the selling process, that “Some will, some won’t; but some will.” That means the goal of selling everyone is futile and a waste leading to giving up. When we understand that we are looking for viable prospects to join our work, it is easier to accept that some just are not worth the wasted effort. They are too happy in ignorance or collaboration to consider changing, like for example my Rabbi, a dear, honored and treasured friend but to me a lost cause of ignorance. We have to look and listen for the few people who will be our next “candles” who will help us light a very dark and dangerous world.
The step I propose is that whenever the word jihad is mentioned, it is NEVER mentioned without an extended but concise explanation of its real meaning. Jihad means war, death and slavery, not some fervent prayer exercise that harms nothing. Never give an inch to the false and misleading suggestion it is just another word for some harmless religious excess. Your thoughts? Frank

Reply to Frank Anderson: Agree the message about Islam has to be encapsulated in slogans that are irrefutable on the face of them.
Bill Warner encapsulates your message like this: “Islam has nothing good in it for the kafir.”
I encapsulate your message like this: “Islam is not benign towards non-Muslims.”
Eric Zemmour (French politician and intellectual) expressed your message this way: “All Muslims, whether they say it or not, consider jihadists to be good Muslims.”
………………………………………………………………………………………….
I agree with Wellington and express his idea in this way : “Western people are almost totally unaware of the 3 ‘ESSENTIAL’ TEACHINGS of Islam (‘essential’ for Islamic salvation) … They are: Islam’s 1) mission 2) motive and 3) method. The mission is 1) tawhid – imperialism 2) the motive is Allah’s hatred towards the evil kufaar (Al Walaa wal Baraa – Islamic apartheid) 3) the method of Islam is jihad – the supremacist warfare against the disbelievers.
While most Muslims are not practicing these three essentials, they give the impression that Islam is benign towards non-Muslims, but that is only a misleading impression. Muslims who do not practice the three imperialistic ‘essential’ teachings are disqualified from Islamic paradise, and so these ‘moderates’ are not considered Muslims in good standing.”
Frank Anderson says
mortimer, on this we agree,

Great exchange, Wellington and Frank.

Oooo! The Miftahul Jannah Academy “people” must be quaking in their goat skin boots and using their underwear as a temporary latrine. Nobody from the Charities Commission to the local authorities will want to be branded “islamophobe” or “racist” over this and wheeling out accusations of “islamophobia” and “racism” will be the first and last salvo in this sorry business.
There may be some proverbial tutting and shaking of a finger but little else. There may be a charity status suspension for a period but nobody connected to praising the Towelie-ban and funding jihad will face any legal consequences under the terrorism legislation. You know the drill: must respect cultural differences, diversity is strength (whose?) and if only we gave them yet more free stuff on the taxpayer they might be nice to us.
If there were a website praising, say, Anders Breivik and calling for donations to carry on his “good work”, everyone involved would be banged up and eating police cell food for months until the plod got to the bottom of it and secured prosecutions.

I’ve just checked Google street view to see what the Walthamstow Central Mosk looks like and how it compares to the buildings in the surrounding area. As completely expected and also pretty much the same as in my small town that is not London:
– [CHECK] the area is full of standard, English 100 year or so old two storey housing
– [CHECK] the area is no longer really English (random people seen in street view around the mosk are mostly not English)
– [CHECK] the mosk’s roof starts above the roofs of surrounding housing (who approved the planning permission?)
– [CHECK] the mosk dome and minaret are significantly taller AND out of character for the surrounding housing (who approved the planning permission?)
– [CHECK] a non-muslim-looking development, just down the road, is no taller than surrounding houses and has no tall, skyward protrusions as that would be “out-of-character for the area”
Pop this into your browser then rotate from east to south, or to the right, to see the non-muslim building:

This is the one in my town with its golden, moon-topped dome and the obligatory minaret, both high above the 100 year or so English housing for at least half a mile around with the exception of flats near Tesco built after the mosk:

Good posts, Treereen. Disturbing stuff.
Treereen says
Thanks gravenimage! I hope my British-English slang expressions are not too confusing.
Yes, it is disturbing how house by house our areas change and then “someone” from the usually Labour (read: closet socialist / communist, liberal and progressive) council allows this kind of architectural rape, time after time. If I wanted to build a small shopping mall of the same shape and size as the mosk, large dome and “tower” included, my planning application would most likely be denied on the grounds of…being out of character for the area. But apply to build this kind of monstrous stain in the middle of quaint English housing and there are no regulatory problems anywhere along the way. Wot no funds to finish the mosk and it looks like a bomb site for a few years? No problem, who cares if adjoining houses lose value. They’ve probably already been bought-to-let by unscrupulous and frequently “Asian” landlords. The two houses next to mine are rented out and owned by a Pakistani who doesn’t live here any more. He’ll probably buy mine once I can no longer put up with the ever growing daily dollops of diversity and cultural enrichment and move away.
Did I mention that every mosk in an area like mine and the Wandsworth one creates horrendous local traffic and parking problems? Almost like an IKEA but instead of all weekend it’s every Friday afternoon. These small streets have never been intended to host the automobile traffic they do now and then you get mosk attending a***s who think road rules and common courtesy is something that happens only to other people.
Treereen says
Grr. Not Wandsworth – Walthamstow.

You are right about Muslims always wanting their buildings, Treereen–Mosques especially–to top out over Infidel structures, This is actually codified in Shari’ah. Very ugly Mosque shoe-horned into this traditional Engish town. At least it *used* to be traditionally English–now it is all Mosques, Halal shops, and Muslimahs enshrouded in Hijab. *Ugh*.
And you don’t need to worry about British-English slang–at least not with me. My mother was English and I am familiar with British slang–well, most of it, any way. 🙂

I lived in Walthamstow for a while. In the short time while i was there the place changed from an east end place to an eastern kasbah. Pakistani shopkeepers piled their rubbish on the street. It looked like islamabad. Of course the schools were 95% muslim. Was glad to be out.
From what i hear it is now ten times worse than the 1990s.

UK: Islamic charity website praises Taliban and encourages Muslims to fund jihadis
……………..
Glad this “charity” is being investigatged. But given that this is all orthodox Islam, and that in Islam “Zakat” (often simply translated as “charity”, but hardly the same thing) includes the funding of violent Jihad, this is apt to be not just common, but actually the norm.
OLD GUY says
I believe that any organization that supports islam is tied to islamic jihad. Islam is always about death to those who don’t follow its rules or honor Muhammad or worship Allah. Any threat to islam is always meet with violence. “GREAT RELIGION”
