Ever the victim. But if, as seems clear, Elahi supports the Islamic Republic of Iran, whose highest authorities routinely scream “Death to America,” how loyal can he be to the country he says he loves? Such a question will immediately be dismissed as “Islamophobic,” but in what way exactly is it wrong to ask it?’ […]
Belgium: Two Catholic universities to offer programs to train Muslim imams
How broadminded! How generous! The idea here is to introduce some quality control in the training of imams: to make sure that they learn about Belgian values, and that they aren’t taught that jihad warfare against unbelievers and the subjugation of those unbelievers under Islamic law is something they should pursue. But that imperative is […]
Gaza imam charged with smuggling funds from Malaysian Islamic charities to Hamas
In Islam, zakat — the alms required of every Muslim — can and should be given to further the jihad. So it shouldn’t surprise anyone that there are so many jihad-linked charities. “Gaza Imam indicted for smuggling funds from Malaysia charities to Hamas,” by Yonah Jeremy Bob, Jerusalem Post, February 6, 2020: The Southern District […]
New Islamic State leader is Islamic scholar with degree in Sharia from University of Mosul
What? An Islamic scholar with a degree in Sharia heading up ISIS? But…but…doesn’t Amir Mohammed Abdul Rahman al-Mawli al-Salbi know that ISIS has nothing whatsoever to do with Islam? Doesn’t he realize that Pope Francis tells us that “authentic Islam and the proper reading of the Koran are opposed to every form of violence”? Surely […]
Muslim cleric: “By means of caliphate…your conquest, oh Rome, is a matter of certainty. Allahu akbar!”
“We were with Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) in an expedition that there came a people to Allah’s Apostle (ﷺ) from the direction of the west. They were dressed in woollen clothes and they stood near a hillock and they met him as Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) was sitting. I said to myself: Better go to them and […]
Iraqi security forces arrest ISIS Muslim cleric, he was serving as a preacher at several Mosul mosques
An Islamic State Muslim cleric? What? Doesn’t he know what every Western official knows, that the Islamic State has nothing to do with Islam? Why didn’t these mosques tell Abu Abd Al-Bari that he was misunderstanding their peaceful religion, and cast him out? “Iraqi police arrest ISIS religious official in eastern Mosul,” by Wladimir van […]
Afghanistan: Muslim cleric calls on his followers to punish women who don’t wear hijab
Meanwhile, Western feminists don hijabs in solidarity with supposedly oppressed Muslim women in the West. The real oppression is of women who don’t wear hijab, but no one cares about them. “Afghan religious clerk warns to punish women who disregard Islamic Hijab,” Khaama Press, January 15, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): Mujeeb Rahman […]
Dearborn, Michigan: Muslim cleric calls killing of Soleimani a “cowardly and heinous act”
What do you think the chances are that Kazerooni is teaching his congregation to be loyal, productive citizens of the United States? What do you think the chances are that this mosque is being investigated? Right: zero on both counts. “Dearborn, MI Imam Ibrahim Kazerooni Eulogizes Qasem Soleimani: He Brought Hope to the Marginalized and […]
Muslim cleric: Recognizing Israel is “betrayal of Allah,” George Washington killed Indians because they were Muslims
Western policymakers formulating new strategies for the Middle Eastern “peace process” never, ever take Islam into account, although “Palestinian” Muslim clerics and other supporters of the “Palestinian” jihad constantly frame their efforts in Islamic terms. Find out why this is self-defeating in The Palestinian Delusion: The Catastrophic History of the Middle East Peace Process. As […]
Italy deports Muslim migrant imam for supporting the Islamic State; he beat his wife for not wearing niqab
Imagine the embarrassment of Italian authorities when they discover that the words and actions of this Muslim cleric were not “extremist,” but quite mainstream among all too many Muslim clerics today. But by then it is likely to be far too late. “Italy Deports Moroccan Imam for ‘Security Reasons,’” by Safaa Kasraoui, Morocco World News, […]
UK: Imam tells Muslims that “we aspire to be like” Soleimani
The Mirror says that this man is a “British” imam, but he would likely deny, if he was being honest, that he is British, and would claim citizenship in the global umma. How many such imams of this kind can Britain tolerate and remain a free society? “Brit Imam says Muslims should ‘aspire to be […]
Imam who says he fights against “extremism” and has been honored in Belgium barred from flying over US
American authorities are extremely anxious to avoid “Islamophobia,” and hence it is very likely that they have good reason for this decision, and Khalid Benhaddou’s self-description is not entirely the whole story. “Ghent imam Khalid Benhaddou is not allowed to fly over the US,” translated from “Gentse imam Khalid Benhaddou mag niet over de VS […]
Religion News Service: “Growth of Islam” in the US creates the “need for religious scholars”
In an article from the Religion News Service, brought to you from increasingly Islamized Dearborn, Jeff Karoub and Noreen Nasir assert that the “US growth of Islam creates” the “need for religious scholars.” No, it doesn’t. What it does create is more need to protect free societies from Islamization, not any need for unregulated religious […]
Israel: Muslim cleric who calls for killing of non-Muslims gets pension as former civil servant
What was that you were saying about the “oppression” of the “Palestinians”? In any case, Sheikh Assem Amira almost certainly considers this pension his due, in lieu of the jizya that the Qur’an mandates non-Muslims pay to Muslims (9:29). “Exposed: Radical Islamist leader who calls for killing of non-Muslims collects pension from Israel,” World Israel […]
Bangladesh: Hospital suspends plans to give donated breast milk to needy newborns after backlash by Muslim clerics
Better these newborns die than that Islamic law is violated. How likely do you think it is that these Muslim clerics will ignore the Qur’an’s teachings on jihad warfare against unbelievers? “Bangladesh halts breast milk scheme after Islamic cleric backlash,” AFP, December 30, 2019 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): DHAKA: A Bangladesh hospital has […]
Muslim cleric praises Pensacola jihadi, says US is on crusade against Islam, violent jihad is only way to stop it
On the one side, we have Muslim clerics such as Nael Mossran insisting that the US is on a crusade against Islam, and that Muslims must wage jihad against America. On the other side, we have an anxious solicitude for Muslims and desperate care taken not to appear “Islamophobic.” Neither side is listening to the […]
Maldives: Three Islamic scholars suspended for encouraging jihad terrorism
We are constantly told that Islamic jihad terrorists misunderstand Islam and misinterpret its peaceful teachings. How did these Muslim clerics, who have dedicated their lives to understanding Islam properly, have missed all that peace? “Preaching licenses suspended as authorities launch counter-terrorism operation,” by Hassan Mohamed, Maldives Independent, December 18, 2019 (thanks to The Religion of […]
Washington state: Muslim cleric who led prayer at state house says Allah transformed Jews into “despicable apes”
Mohamad Joban is no “extremist.” The Qur’an three times recounts that Allah transformed disobedient Jews into apes and pigs (2:62-65; 5:59-60; 7:166). “When in their insolence they transgressed (all) prohibitions, We said to them: ‘Be apes, despicable and rejected’” (7:166). “Imam Mohamad Joban of Redmond, WA: Allah Transformed Jews into Despicable Apes and Pigs for […]
India: Muslim cleric says “we will not hesitate in waging jihad” over law granting asylum to persecuted non-Muslims

Muslim cleric: Jews “truly and completely deserve that some of them were transformed into apes and pigs”
The Fatiha (Opening) is the first sura (chapter) of the Qur’an, and most common prayer of Islam. If you’re a pious Muslim who prays the five requisite daily prayers of Islam, you will recite the Fatiha seventeen times in the course of those prayers. According to an Islamic tradition, the Muslim prophet Muhammad said that […]
