Kenya: Muslims defy lockdown for Ramadan, flood into Somalia, where mosques remain open

May 8, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Kenya now has concerns about an outbreak of the coronavirus, despite having stuck to lockdown rules. That’s because Kenya left its borders open. “Somalia has kept its mosques open during Ramadan despite the coronavirus pandemic, attracting a flood of faithful Kenyans from across the countries.’” This points to the reality of the risk to any […]

Canada: Islamic call to prayer broadcast over loudspeakers causing fierce divisions as reviled opponents fight back

May 8, 2020 8:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

In a Toronto Star article, “Broadcast of Muslim call to prayer offers lesson on gratitude,” notorious “Islamophobia” guru Amira Alghawaby hails the broadcast of the Islamic call to prayer (adhan) in Canada, as cities have made amendments to bylaws to allow the blasting of the call to prayer over loudspeakers during Ramadan. She says of […]

The Washington Post Wants You to Fast for Ramadan

May 6, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer

My latest in PJ Media: The far-Left anti-Trump propaganda organ masquerading as a news source and operating under the name the Washington Post on Thursday published an inspiring op-ed entitled “As American Muslims fast this Ramadan, maybe the rest of America should consider joining in.” The Post’s articles exhorting people to keep the Lenten fast […]

Ramadan in Afghanistan: Taliban murders 17 civilians and wounds 49 during first week of holy month

May 6, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

“During Ramadan, both fasting and acts of charity are incumbent upon Muslims who are able to do so, in order to gain a clearer appreciation of human suffering.” — BD News “The month of Ramadan is a month of holy war and death for Allah. It is a month for fighting the enemies of Allah […]

Saudi Arabia: Jewish characters in TV show enrage Palestinians, ignite debate in Arab Muslim world

May 6, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

The series also depicts Muslims interacting with Christians positively, in a display of “religious diversity.” With all the talk about “reform” in Saudi Arabia, this show is sure to be seen by some as a demonstration of that country’s growing acceptance of infidels as equals. Not so. Saudi Arabia continues to arrest and torture dissidents, […]

Australia: City of Melbourne allows Islamic call to prayer to be broadcast over loudspeakers during Ramadan

May 5, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

This is happening all over the world, notably in the United States, Canada, and Germany, and no one seems concerned about the implications of it. In fact, no one is even aware of the implications of it except greasy Islamophobes who are unworthy of serious attention. However, these areas will almost certainly one day hear […]

Netherlands: Muslim DJ gets death threats for playing music during Ramadan

May 4, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Ramadan is the time in which Muslims strive to intensify their efforts to please Allah. Consequently, since Islam mandates violence under certain circumstances, it is also a month that usually features an increased jihad death toll. And those who threatened Morad El Ouakili are untroubled: they don’t believe that threatening to kill someone who is […]

Ramadan in the Philippines: Muslims murder two policemen who were conducting patrol in a village

“Last week marked the beginning of Ramadan, a religious festival which Muslim communities all over the world observe as a month of prayer, fasting and spending time with family.” — The Evening Standard What might prayer and fasting lead to in a context in which the deity commands his followers to “kill them wherever you […]

May 4, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

The Washington Post announces: “The Opinions section is looking for stories of how the coronavirus has affected people of all walks of life. Write to us.” The imam Omar Suleiman, “the founder and president of the Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research and an Islamic studies professor at Southern Methodist University,” saw an opportunity for dawah, […]

Ramadan in Somalia: Four members of same family killed in jihad attack on military base and diplomatic offices

“The end result of Ramadan for Muslims, according to the Koran, is for ‘you to complete the period and glorify God for that which He has guided you, and that you may be amongst the grateful.’” — Imam Omar Suleiman in the Washington Post And how does a Muslim glorify Allah? A hadith has a […]

Ramadan in Afghanistan: Muslim murders three civilians and wounds 15 in jihad suicide bombing in Kabul

May 3, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Ramadan is the month of jihad, the month when Muslims strive to please Allah more fervently. And so because murdering Infidels who are considered to be at war with Allah is a pious act, there is generally more bloodshed during Ramadan than during the rest of the year. And here we are. “Suicide attack leaves […]

Vatican’s Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue urges Catholics to participate in Ramadan iftars

May 3, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

More dialogue follies. I explain why this is so foolish and wrongheaded below. “Vatican Urges Catholics to Share Ramadan,” by Jules Gomes, ChurchMilitant.com, May 2, 2020: VATICAN CITY (ChurchMilitant.com) – The Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue is encouraging Christians to join in the Islamic iftar ‘ritual’ meal on the occasion of the Muslim festival of Ramadan.

Vatican extends “hearty congratulations” to all Muslims for a “fruitful month of Ramadan”

May 3, 2020 8:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

“The Vatican’s office for interreligious dialogue released a message to the world’s Muslims Friday, extending fervent best wishes for a ‘fruitful month of Ramadan.’” Fervent is the key word here. A simple well wishing to Muslims, since there are those Muslims who choose not to follow the call to violent jihad, would have sufficed. There […]

UK: Leftist politician announces he’s fasting for Ramadan, pictures pre-fast bacon breakfast in tweet

Apr 28, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Councillor Ian Manning woke up early and decided to engage in a bit of virtue signaling by announcing he was about to begin fasting for Ramadan. He included a picture of his pre-dawn breakfast, which included bacon, and tagged the Muslim Council of Britain. The predictable social media onslaught ensued; Manning’s unintentional violation of the […]

UK: Morrisons supermarket chains runs ads promoting Ramadan but not England’s national day

Apr 27, 2020 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer

What is happening in Britain is patently obvious. Future historians, if there are any, will note small incidents like this as part of the nation’s overall loss of cultural confidence and identity, and one more step along the way of its decline and eventual fall. It is rather like a market in the late Western […]

NYC: De Blasio threatened to close churches and synagogues permanently, but gives Muslims 500,000 meals for Ramadan

Apr 26, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

This is similar to what we see in Britain on a more or less daily basis: special treatment and special accommodations for Muslims. Britain is well on the way to establishing Muslims as a protected class with rights and privileges beyond those of ordinary citizens, and de Blasio has embarked on the same path. It […]

South Africa: Muslim groups go to court to challenge coronavirus lockdown regulations for mosques

Apr 26, 2020 12:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

The coronavirus outbreak has pitted Islamic clerics against politicians in a confrontation over religion versus politics; of course, religion and politics are intricately intertwined in normative Islam. The Pakistani government has already succumbed to pressure from Muslim clerics to open all mosques for Ramadan. Now Muslim groups in South Africa “are set to head to […]

Pakistan mosques to stay open for Ramadan: “The mosque is a safe place. I am not afraid of the coronavirus.”

Apr 23, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

The government of Pakistan has decided to capitulate to Islamic clerics and leave mosques open for Ramadan, with the hope that its citizens will decide for themselves to stay home and pray, or otherwise be careful not to spread coronavirus, should they decide to attend mosque. Guidelines were provided “which includes keeping six feet distances […]

Pakistan: Amid coronavirus, government launches “Islam friendly” action plan to keep mosques open for Ramadan

Apr 22, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

While deciding to keep all mosques open, the Pakistani government vowed to adhere to “precautionary measures to stop the spread of the coronavirus.” How they intend to do this is unclear. And here’s the real comfort: the President of Pakistan, Imran Khan, “assured the clergy that he would soon announce a special worship day called […]

Hamas-linked CAIR cries “Islamophobia” as Trump questions if social distancing will be enforced during Ramadan

Apr 20, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

The charge of “Islamophobia” in this instance is even more ridiculous than what usually comes from Hamas-linked CAIR, as Trump wasn’t referring to Muslims. He was referring to how law enforcement authorities treat Muslims. And there is no doubt that, precisely because of charges of “Islamophobia,” some people are reluctant to act against those who […]
