Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Muslim cleric: ‘All forms of violence and terrorism are against the refined ethics that are propagated by Islam’

Nov 30, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 12 Comments

Murtadha Muhammad Gusau is the Chief Imam of Nagazi-Uvete Jumu’ah and the late Alhaji Abdur-Rahman Okene’s Mosques, Okene, Kogi State, Nigeria. Here he offers yet another Islamic condemnation of terrorism that falls short of its sweeping claims, but will no doubt fool many nevertheless. Comments interspersed below. “There’s No Violence, No Terrorism In Islam,” by […]

France: Muslim cleric uses TikTok to justify jihad violence, is set to be deported

Nov 29, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 16 Comments

What? A Muslim cleric? But how could this be? How could a man who has dedicated his life to understanding Islam properly and communicating it effectively somehow get the idea that his religion calls for “attacking non-Muslims and disbelievers”? It’s blazingly obvious to non-Muslims such as Pope Francis, Joe Biden and Emmanuel Macron that Islam […]

Canada: Muslim cleric calls Jews ‘brothers of monkeys and pigs,’ calls on Allah to ‘tear them apart’

Nov 26, 2020 5:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 31 Comments

In a Facebook post flagged by the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, prominent Imam Younus Kathrada, who preaches for the Muslim Youth of Victoria, “calls Jews ‘Brothers of monkeys and khanzeer’ (pigs in Arabic), and calls on Allah to ‘Tear them apart.’” Back in March, Kathrada also preached: “Don’t take Jews or Christians as friends, […]

Australia cancels citizenship of Muslim cleric who plotted jihad massacre at soccer match

Nov 25, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 31 Comments

A necessary act of national defense that will inevitably be decried as “Islamophobic.” In the eyes of the Left, Infidels are supposed to sit back and accept Islamization and Leftist authoritarianism passively. “Australia cancels citizenship of Muslim cleric in local first,” Reuters, November 25, 2020: SYDNEY: Australia has canceled the citizenship of an Algerian-born Muslim […]

Detroit: Imam calls Trump and Biden ‘puppets of the Zionists’ and says Muslims are ‘targets of these viruses’

Nov 19, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 12 Comments

In a Muslim context, Achmat Salie could hardly have found anything worse to call Trump and Biden. The Jews in the Qur’an are called the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); they fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); they claim that Allah’s power is limited (5:64); […]

Islamic scholar: Jews trying to stop spread of Islam in Europe, as ‘this endangers their Satanic schemes’

Nov 18, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer 20 Comments

“The Jews are organizing all these movements in revenge for the rapid spread of Islam in Europe, because they fully understand how this endangers their Satanic schemes to prevent people from accepting the religion of Islam.” Paradoxically, anti-Semites in the West frequently claim that Jews are fostering the rapid spread of Islam in Europe, in […]

Virginia imam: There is ‘freedom of expression to insult the Prophet, but no freedom of expression to insult Macron’

Nov 13, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 5 Comments

Brazen lies and victimology of the kind Elsayed offers here are generally accepted by Leftists, who are easily duped by those who resort to identity politics, especially stealth jihadists. Elsayed claim that “Many Christians, Jews want to turn Muslims back to being infidels like them” is based on the Qur’an: “And never will the Jews […]

Florida: Imam says ‘It is a form of polytheism when you elect people who are going to rule not according to Sharia’

Nov 3, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer 30 Comments

What is the likelihood that Dr. Yousef Fadi Kablawi is teaching the Muslims at Masjid As-Sunnah An-Nabawiyyah North Miami to be loyal American citizens with respect for the political process and the rule of American law? Of course, it’s “Islamophobic” to ask such questions, so they will not be answered, but sooner or later they […]

Netherlands: Muslim cleric calls for legislation protecting Islam from insults

Nov 3, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer 34 Comments

Elforkani justifies his demand by creating a false equivalence: “when our Jewish brothers are attacked, it quickly becomes anti-Semitism and that is not allowed.” Where in the Netherlands or in Europe at large is criticism of Jews prohibited? Meanwhile, some of Elforkani’s Muslim brothers in the Netherlands have engaged in viciously anti-Semitic rhetoric, as well […]

Islamic Scholar Yasir Qadhi Says There’s a ‘Brutal’ Campaign Against Islam in France

Nov 3, 2020 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald 24 Comments

 Yasir Qadhi is an Islamic scholar living in the U.S. who in a recent sermon deplored what he describes as an anti-Islamic campaign by the French government. The report on his sermon is here: “Prominent American Islamic Scholar Dr. Yasir Qadhi: The ‘Unfortunate’ Beheading Of Samuel Paty Is A Pretext For A Campaign Against […]

Canada: Imam says beheaded teacher was ‘filthy excuse for a human being,’ prays ‘O Allah, destroy enemies of Islam’

Nov 1, 2020 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer 66 Comments

A prayer to Allah to “destroy the enemies of Islam, and annihilate the heretics and the atheists” is not just a request directed to the deity. The Qur’an explicitly says that Allah will punish people by the hands of the believers: “Fight them; Allah will punish them by your hands and will disgrace them and […]

Texas: Islamic scholar rails against France’s ‘Islamophobic campaign against our prophet under guise of free speech’

Nov 1, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 23 Comments

The notorious Yasir Qadhi, who has called for the murder of homosexuals and blasphemers, raised money for a charity linked to Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood, and said that Muslims can seize the property of “filthy” non-Muslims in jihad, says: “We are seeing this campaign, this brutal xenophobic, Islamophobic campaign.

Austria: Military imam of federal army discovered to be supporter of jihad in Bosnia

Oct 31, 2020 9:15 am By Robert Spencer 11 Comments

Wasn’t Abdulmedzid Sijamhodzic vetted before the army hired him, to determine whether he was really a “moderate”? Of course not. Why not? Because to have done so would have been “Islamophobic.” All non-Muslims are required to assume that all Muslims reject and abhor jihad violence, and any attempt to confirm that is evidence of “bigotry.” […]

Colorado: Non-Muslims try to destroy Islam by ‘sugarcoating, watering it down, accept LGBT…HIYZ…music is okay’

Oct 25, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer 19 Comments

Western analysts constantly assume, and demand that other assume, that no Muslims in the U.S. and Europe have any difficulty whatsoever in reconciling Islamic law with Western secular society, and that anyone who thinks otherwise is a racist, bigoted “Islamophobe.” Yet here is a Muslim cleric in Aurora, Colorado proudly proclaiming that he will not […]

Virginia: Imam calls for caliphate, says ‘My enemies call it inciting, I do not care what enemies of Allah say’

Oct 20, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer 21 Comments

Note that Shaker Elsayed refers to “our ummah, including the Islamists.” The word “Islamist” is generally used to refer to adherents of political Islam, which is inherently authoritarian and supremacist. Yet we are constantly told that anyone who thinks that Islam has a political aspect is a greasy Islamophobe to be vilified and ostracized everywhere. […]

France: Islamic preacher issued death fatwa against teacher who was beheaded for showing Muhammad cartoons

Oct 19, 2020 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer 28 Comments

French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said police raids were meant to send the message that “enemies of the Republic” would not enjoy “a minute’s respite.” Imagine how embarrassed Darmanin will be when he discovers that the death penalty for blasphemy is not “extremist,” but is part of mainstream Islam. “Outraged parent and Islamic preacher ‘issued […]

Oct 13, 2020 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer 13 Comments

As I explain in detail in The Palestinian Delusion, the “Palestinian” conflict with Israel is based on Islamic imperatives, the one aspect of the conflict that all mainstream analysts discount or ignore altogether. Accordingly, it is no surprise at all that the “Palestinians” would be trying to marshal opposition to the peace deals, which are […]

Pakistan: Muslim clerics say they won’t administer marriage ceremonies if celebrations include music and dance

Oct 13, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer 26 Comments

These clerics only banned music at weddings. They must be moderates. Whenever I note that Islamic law forbids music (aside from nasheeds, a cappella songs encouraging jihad), I am excoriated as a greasy Islamophobe, but it’s nonetheless true: Hadith Qudsi 19:5: “The Prophet said that Allah commanded him to destroy all the musical instruments, idols, […]
