Arabic-speaking Christians were using the word “Allah” to refer to the God of the Bible since before the invention of Islam. This does not in reality signify their Islamization or dhimmitude; it is just the word they have used. But now Islamic supremacists in Malaysia have made it into an issue, and the controversy has […]
Pakistani imam who framed Christian girl on blasphemy charges acquitted
He was accused of blasphemy for faking the burned Qur’an pages that he used to accuse the Christian girl — falsely — of blasphemy. But in his own trial the prosecution case broke down as all, not some but all, of the witnesses withdrew their accusations. Could they have been pressured in some way? I […]
Burned home in Windsor, Connecticut: “Allahu akbar”
I don’t know the story behind this. A Jihad Watch reader spotted the “Allahu akbar” painted on the side of a burned house and sent me the photo. Perhaps the one who painted it was responsible for the burning. Or perhaps he just wanted to make a Qur’anic point that other Muslims have made at […]
Gaza jihad leader’s message to U.S.: “Islam is coming and there is no other choice”
“And we will raise the Islamic flag on every point on earth where Muslims live and we will chase all the enemies of Islam wherever they are. Even in the West, in Europe and in the United States.” “Jihadist leader to U.S.: ‘Islam is coming,’” from WND, August 12: During a radio interview Sunday, a […]
Yusuf Islam (Cat Stevens): “I’m praying to Allah to give us victory over the kuffar”
Today on Ummah.com, a poster called “ahaneefah” posted two “Classic Yusuf Islam Nasheeds without Music.” A nasheed is a song praising Allah or Islam in some way. Nasheeds are usually sung a cappella or with percussion accompaniment only, and according to most Islamic authorities they’re the only kind of music allowed under Islamic law. Anyway, […]
Malaysia: School orders non-Muslim students to have lunch in bathroom to avoid offending Muslims fasting for Ramadan
Tolerance. “Fasting month, so pupils told to take recess meals in bathroom — Updated,” from the Malaysia Edition, July 23 (thanks to Pamela Geller): A decision by a primary school administration to order its non-Muslim pupils to have their meals during recess in what appears to be the school’s shower room has gone viral and […]
Interfaith outreach in Iraqi Kurdistan: Muslim ambulance driver refuses to take body of Christian woman to church
Remember, this is not hate. It only becomes hate when a non-Muslim points out that it happened. And even then, the hate will be ascribed not to the ambulance driver, but to the non-Muslim. “Kurdistan: ‘Islamic’ ambulance driver refuses to take the body of a Christian woman to church,” from Asia News, July 23 (thanks […]
Michigan: “If the mosques object to the consumption of alcohol in front of their establishments, the festival will be forced to relocate the drinking area”
Once again we see that wherever Islamic custom and practice conflict with American custom and practice, the latter must give way. Note also the deception and duplicity from the Al Islah Mosque leaders in the matter regarding the windows. “Mosque’s design is OK”d by city council,” by Charles Sercombe for the Hamtramck Review, July 20 […]
How Dare You?! The Supremacist Nature of Muslim “Grievances”
Earlier in the Jerusalem Post (via RaymondIbrahim.com), I discussed the true nature of Muslim grievances, including in the context of the greatest Muslim grievance of all — Israel: In 2012 in Pakistan, as Christian children were singing carols inside their church, Muslim men from a nearby mosque barged in with an axe, destroyed the furniture, […]
Pro-Morsi demonstration at Al-Aqsa Mosque: U.S., France, Britain to be destroyed, Rome to be conquered
There were also calls for the restoration of the caliphate. The caliphate is supposed to be the unitary state in which every Muslim is a citizen. In Sunni theology, only the caliph is authorized to wage offensive jihad — which is one reason (but not the only reason) why in the current absence of a […]
