Know Thine Enemy
[Fourth in a series.]
Terrorism
First, the propaganda.
From the conclusion of a fatwa at Islam On Line:
From the real experts:
Saudi Arabia’s U.N. Ambassador had this to say:
The mufti [top religious leader] of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and President of the Council of Senior ulema (Islamic scholars) affirmed that the explosions that occurred in the United States, the acts of plane hijacking, frightening peaceful people, and unjustly killing people, are forms of aggression and oppression which the Islamic Law not only does not condone, but also considers a major sin.
And if you believe any of that fecal matter, there’s a bridge in Bhagdad I’d like to sell you. Open your eyes and take a clear, cold look at what Allah said.
- 3:151. We shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve, because they joined others in worship with Allâh, for which He had sent no authority; their abode will be the Fire and how evil is the abode of the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrongdoers.)
- 8:12. (Remember) when your Lord inspired the angels, “Verily, I am with you, so keep firm those who have believed. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who have disbelieved, so strike them over the necks, and smite over all their fingers and toes.”
- 33:26. And those of the people of the Scripture who backed them (the disbelievers) Allâh brought them down from their forts and cast terror into their hearts, (so that) a group (of them) you killed, and a group (of them) you made captives.
33:27. And He caused you to inherit their lands, and their houses, and their riches, and a land which you had not trodden (before). And Allâh is Able to do all things.
- 59:2. He it is Who drove out the disbelievers among the people of the Scripture (i.e. the Jews of the tribe of Banî An-Nadîr) from their homes at the first gathering. You did not think that they would get out. And they thought that their fortresses would defend them from Allâh! But Allâh’s (Torment) reached them from a place whereof they expected it not, and He cast terror into their hearts, so that they destroyed their own dwellings with their own hands and the hands of the believers. Then take admonition, O you with eyes (to see).
Allah said he would cast terror. Allah said he cast terror. Allah said casting terror resulted in killing, captivation and accrual of spoils. Allah made the terrorized an example to terrify future victims. Is there something more you need to know?
- 9:120. It was not becoming of the people of Al-Madinah and the bedouins of the neighbourhood to remain behind Allâh’s Messenger (Muhammad when fighting in Allâh’s Cause) and (it was not becoming of them) to prefer their own lives to his life. That is because they suffer neither thirst nor fatigue, nor hunger in the Cause of Allâh, nor they take any step to raise the anger of disbelievers nor inflict any injury upon an enemy but is written to their credit as a deed of righteousness. Surely, Allâh wastes not the reward of the Muhsinûn
Any step taken to anger or injure the Kuffar is accumulated credit as righteousness. How do Muslims earn Brownie Points? Ibn Kathir adds terror to the list. [Emphasis added.]
Muhammad was not shy about terrorism; he bragged about it!
- I have been made victorious with terror (cast in the hearts of the enemy)
- Allah made me victorious by awe, (by His frightening my enemies) for a distance of one month’s journey.
- Sunni Path Bukhari: CH7 #328. It is related that Jabir ibn ‘Abdullah said, “The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, ‘I have been given five things which no one before me was given: I have
been helped to victory by terror flooding (my enemies’) hearts up to a month’s journey away;…
Muslims will claim that they are forbidden to attack innocent people. Of course, they do not define innocent for you. You, as a Kaffir, are not innocent; you are a rebel against Allah. You, by resisting Islam, make yourself fair game. Never forget what Muhammad said about that!
- “I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: ‘None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.’ And if they say so, pray like our prayers, face our Qibla and slaughter as we slaughter, then their blood and property will be sacred to us and we will not interfere with them except legally and their reckoning will be with Allah.“
- I have been ordered to fight the people till they say ‘None has the right to be worshipped but Allah’ And whoever says: None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.’ waves his wealth and his life from me unless he deserves a legal punishment lusty, and his account will be with Allah!
- I am commanded to fight with men till they testify that there is no god but Allah, and that Muhammad is His servant and His Apostle, face our qiblah (direction of prayer), eat what we slaughter, and pray like us. When they do that, their life and property are unlawful for us except what is due to them.
Who is Muhammad commanded to fight?
- the people
- men
He did not say the enemy. He did not specify armed defenders organized into an army. He did not say the guilty. He means the disbelievers, all of them, always. Your blood and property are not sacred to Muslims. Your life and property are lawful for Muslims to take. You save your life and property from Muslims by becoming a Muslim. Muslims are commanded, not forbidden to terrorize and attack you.
