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

Pope to welcome Muslim leader who has justified anti-Semitism and crucifixion of “enemies of Allah” to Vatican

May 20, 2016 3:02 pm By Robert Spencer

Al-Tayeb has shown himself over the years to be anything but a preacher of peace, cooperation and mercy: he has justified anti-Semitism on Qur’anic grounds; called for the Islamic State murderers of the Jordanian pilot to be crucified or have their hands and feet amputated on opposite sides (as per the penalty in Qur’an 5:33 […]

Muslim jihadis distort Islam just as Western homosexuals distort Christianity, claims leading sheikh

Feb 26, 2016 7:45 am By Raymond Ibrahim

As a way to exonerate Islam of the violence habitually committed in its name, Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayeb—the grand imam of Al Azhar University—recently engaged in some interesting sophistry.  According to published statements on Arabic media, Tayeb said that “It is extremely regrettable that some heads of churches in the United States conduct [homosexual] marriages.  I […]

Egypt: Highest Islamic authority refuses to denounce the Islamic State as “un-Islamic”

Dec 7, 2015 2:20 pm By Raymond Ibrahim

During an open discussion at Cairo University held on December 2, Dr. Ahmed al-Tayeb, the Sheikh and Grand Imam of Al Azhar — and thus Egypt’s foremost authority on all things Islamic — was again asked why Al Azhar refuses to issue a formal statement denouncing the Islamic State of lapsing into a state of kufr, that is, […]

Al-Azhar Sheikh: “Islam cannot prevail and spread by means of weapons”

Apr 30, 2015 7:44 am By Robert Spencer

Al-Tayeb says here that “what the Islamist armed movements are doing is wrong.” However, rejoicing over his “moderation” may be premature: he has justified anti-Semitism on Qur’anic grounds; called for the Islamic State murderers of the Jordanian pilot to be crucified or have their hands and feet amputated on opposite sides (as per the penalty […]

State Dept tweets speech by Muslim cleric who blames Mideast unrest on “world Zionism”

Mar 4, 2015 7:59 am By Robert Spencer

The people at State who are responsible for this probably didn’t see anything amiss. They probably believe much the same thing, even if they wouldn’t state it in the same lurid terms: they likely think that if Israel would just go away, peace would prevail in the Middle East. “State Department Tweets Speech by Cleric […]

Al-Azhar Sheikh who justifies Qur’anic anti-Semitism calls for Islamic reform

Feb 23, 2015 4:27 pm By Robert Spencer

Al-Tayeb’s call for reform here is not genuine. He has shown himself over the years to be a doctrinaire literalist: he has justified anti-Semitism on Qur’anic grounds; called for the Islamic State murderers of the Jordanian pilot to be crucified or have their hands and feet amputated on opposite sides (as per the penalty in […]

Al-Azhar Sheikh: Killers of pilot should be “crucified or…have their limbs amputated”

Feb 4, 2015 9:21 am By Robert Spencer

The clerics do not mention this story from Muhammad’s conquest of Khaybar: “Kinana b. al-Rabi`, who had the custody of the treasure of B. al-Nadir, was brought to the apostle who asked him about it. He denied that he knew where it was. A Jew came (T. was brought) to the apostle and said that […]
