“As per reports, 27 out of 35 members of the Tablighi Jamaat tested positive for the Wuhan Coronavirus in Raiwind in Lahore in the Punjab region of Pakistan. The Islamic outfit had organised a religious congregation for 1200 people. The event was later called off thus making it difficult for the members to reach home, […]
Pakistan: Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly Speaker says “Islam gives unmatched respect, rights and status to women”
Why, of course. The Qur’an likens a woman to a field (tilth), to be used by a man as he wills: “Your women are a tilth for you, so go to your tilth as you will” — Qur’an 2:223 It declares that a woman’s testimony is worth half that of a man: “Get two witnesses, […]
Pakistan: Muslims defend practice of child marriage as one of the “tenets of Islam”
While the world continues to ignore human rights abuses committed in the name of Islam, mainstream Islamic clerics in countries that implement Sharia certainly do not. With reference to the practice of child marriage, the Washington Times reports: The problems are not just cultural. The U.N. World Health Organization notes that the leading causes of […]
Pakistan Chief Minister: “We’ll return from jihad only after complete victory and liberation of Kashmir from India”
Those who believe, and there are many, that the global jihad is all about the alleged evils of Israel and the United States should take note of this. Neither one has anything to do with Jammu and Kashmir, but we see here the same rhetoric we see among the “Palestinians.” This is because of the […]
Pakistan: District Council unanimously adopts resolution that only Christians, not Muslims, be sweepers
The idea is that the Muslims must always be supreme, superior to the Christians, who are the ones doing the menial jobs. Why? Because it’s in the Qur’an: “Fight those who do not believe in Allah or the Last Day, and do not forbidden what has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, and do […]
Ramadan in Pakistan: Muslims murder prominent Sikh leader Charanjit Singh
Ramadan is the month during which Muslims redouble their efforts to please Allah. And Allah says “kill them wherever you find them” three times (cf. Qur’an 2:191, 4:89, 9:5). Meanwhile, in the U.S., many (but not all) Sikh leaders stand with Muslim Brotherhood-linked Islamic organizations. This is short-sighted in the extreme, as those organizations hold […]
Pakistan: Provincial government gives Islamic seminary run by “Father of the Taliban” over $5,000,000
Nothing to be concerned about. The “Father of the Taliban” Maulana Samiul Haq has promised “reforms in the syllabus and system of the seminary in return to this grant.” And he wouldn’t dream of deceiving anyone, now, would he? “Taliban linked Pakistani seminary to get Rs 277m fund,” ANI, February 23, 2018: Islamabad: Pakistani seminary […]
Pakistan: Student charges principal with “blasphemy,” guns him down
We are much more enlightened in the West. We believe in the freedom of speech. Those who are accused of blasphemy aren’t gunned down in cold blood (although they certainly tried to get us in Garland, Texas on May 3, 2015). They’re just smeared as racist, bigoted Islamophobes, and shunned by all decent people. Note […]
Iran funding recruitment of Pakistani Shias to battle the Islamic State
Meanwhile, among Sunnis, “graffiti, banners and hate literature supporting I.S. has been found across Pakistan as far back as 2014.” For a group that the entire Western intelligentsia insists is not Islamic, the Islamic State sure has a lot of traction among Muslims. John Kerry, David Cameron, and Pope Francis have not yet deigned to […]
