Islam: Religion of peace. Sahih BukhariVolume 6, Book 60, Number 173

Narrated Ibn ‘Umar:

That a man came to him (while two groups of Muslims were fighting) and said, “O Abu ‘Abdur Rahman! Don’t you hear what Allah has mentioned in His Book:

‘And if two groups of believers fight against each other…’ (49.9)

So what prevents you from fighting as Allah has mentioned in His Book?”‘ Ibn ‘Umar said, “O son of my brother! I would rather be blamed for not fighting because of this Verse than to be blamed because of another Verse where Allah says:

‘And whoever kills a believer intentionally…” (4.93) Then that man said, “Allah says:– ‘And fight them until there is no more afflictions (worshipping other besides Allah) and the religion (i.e. worship) will be all for Allah (Alone)” (8.39) Ibn ‘Umar said, “We did this during the lifetime of Allah’s Apostle when the number of Muslims was small, and a man was put to trial because of his religion, the pagans would either kill or chain him; but when the Muslims increased (and Islam spread), there was no persecution.” When that man saw that Ibn ‘Umar did not agree to his proposal, he said, “What is your opinion regarding ‘Ali and ‘Uthman?” Ibn ‘Umar said, “What is my opinion regarding Ali and ‘Uthman? As for ‘Uthman, Allah forgave him and you disliked to forgive him, and Ali is the cousin and son-in-law of Allah’s Apostle .” Then he pointed out with his hand and said, “And that is his daughter’s (house) which you can see.”

Snake Feces!!!

Wes Vernon, writing at Renew America, displays a combination of  vital knowledge and timidity in
The McCain dilemma: a split personality on his wars .

The highlighted clause in the following excerpt spoils an otherwise excellent article by displaying dhimmitude in the face of an intimidation campaign.

Senator McCain frequently uses the term “Islamic” to describe our terrorist enemies. The Arizonan’s media strategist Steve Schmidt says, “Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda represent a perverted strain of Islam at odds with the great many peaceful Muslims…. But the reality is, the hateful ideology which underpins bin Ladenism is properly described as radical Islamic extremism. Senator McCain refers to it that way because that is what it is.”

“the hateful ideology which underpins bin Ladenism is properly described as radical Islamic extremism

Snake feces!!!!!  The “hateful ideology”  is standard, off the shelf  ISLAM as revealed by Allah, recited by Muhammad, exemplified by Muhammad and enshrined in Sharia.  Islam is what Muhammad preached & practiced and his Caliphs emulated, not some ephemeral ideal which has been ‘perverted’, ‘distorted’, ‘radicalized’  or ‘ hijacked’ by mythical ‘extremists’.

If you are inclined to believe and accept what Wes Vernon wrote, then you need to perform the following steps:

  1. pull your head out
  2. wipe the excrement from your eyes
  3. take a clear, unbiased look at the evidence.
Sharia: Reliance of the Traveler
The Reliance of the Traveller. Version 1.06 - By Ahmad Ibn Naqib Al-Misri
BOOK O: JUSTICE >> Chapter O-9.0: Jihad


O-9.8: The Objectives of Jihad
The caliph (o-25) makes war upon Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians (N: provided he has first invited them to enter Islam in faith and practice, and if they will not, then invited them to enter the social order of Islam by paying the non-Muslim poll tax (jizya, def: o-11.4) -which is the significance of their paying it, not the money itself-while remaining in their ancestral religions) (O: and the war continues) until they become Muslim or else pay the non-Muslim poll tax (O: in accordance with the word of Allah Most High,
Fight those who do not believe in Allah and the Last Day and who forbid not what Allah and His messenger have forbidden-who do not practice the religion of truth, being of those who have been given the Book-until they pay the poll tax out of hand and are humbled (Koran 9.29),
the time and place for which is before the final descent of Jesus (upon whom be peace). After his final coming, nothing but Islam will be accepted from them, for taking the poll tax is only effective until Jesus’ descent (upon him and our Prophet be peace), which is the divinely revealed law of Muhammad. The coming of Jesus does not entail a separate divinely revealed law, for he will rule by the law of Muhammad. As for the Prophet’s saying (Allah bless him and give him peace),
“I am the last, there will be no prophet after me,”
this does not contradict the final coming of Jesus (upon whom be peace), since he will not rule according to the Evangel, but as a follower of our Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) ).
Sharia: Reliance of the Traveler
“Jihad is a communal obligation,” meaning upon the Muslims each year.

What must they do? Make war upon  ”people of the book”.  When must they do it? At least once each year.
Why is this Islamic law?

Because Allah Said:
Fight those who believe not in God and the Last Day and do not forbid what God and His Messenger have forbidden — such men as practise not the religion of truth, being of those who have been given the Book — until they pay the tribute out of hand and have been humbled. [Arberry]

What does that mean?

Ibn Kathir’s Tafsir
Allah commanded His Messenger to fight the People of the Scriptures, Jews and Christians, on the ninth year of Hijrah, and he prepared his army to fight the Romans and called the people to Jihad announcing his intent and destination. The Messenger sent his intent to various Arab areas around Al-Madinah to gather forces, and he collected an army of thirty thousand.

What did Muhammad say?
Sahih Bukhari Volume 1, Book 8, Number 387

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.

What did Muhammad do?

Sahih Bukhari  Volume 5, Book 59, Number 512
Narrated Anas:
The Prophet offered the Fajr Prayer near Khaibar when it was still dark and then said, “Allahu-Akbar! Khaibar is destroyed, for whenever we approach a (hostile) nation (to fight), then evil will be the morning for those who have been warned.” Then the inhabitants of Khaibar came out running on the roads. The Prophet had their warriors killed, their offspring and woman taken as captives. Safiya was amongst the captives, She first came in the share of Dahya Alkali but later on she belonged to the Prophet . The Prophet made her manumission as her ‘Mahr’.

What did Allah say about terrorism?

Qur’an 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.

What did Allah do about terrorism?

Qur’an 33:26-27
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. 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.

What did Muhammad say about terrorism?
Sahih Bukhari Volume 1, Book 7, Number 331:

Allah made me victorious by awe, (by His frightening my enemies) for a distance of one month’s journey.
Sahih Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 220:
I have been made victorious with terror (cast in the hearts of the enemy), and while I was sleeping, the keys of the treasures of the world were brought to me and put in my hand.

Reliance of the Traveler mentions additional ayat as basis for Jihad:

Sharia: Reliance of the Traveler

The scriptural basis for jihad, prior to scholarly consensus (def: b7) is such Koranic verses as:

-1- “Fighting is prescribed for you” (Koran 2:216);

-2- “Slay them wherever you find them” (Koran 4:89);

-3- “Fight the idolators utterly” (Koran 9:36);

A large collection of relevant ahadith, with commentary, is contained in  Riyad-us-Saliheen, Book 11, Chapter 234.
I do not ask you to take my word for it. I am not an expert. I  post links to my sources and encourage you to follow them up for verification and further exploration.  The  Qur’an & hadith links are direct;  you must search Reliance of the Traveler, which is a large text file.

I repeatedly post this and related information and pound this issue because it is a life/death & liberty/slavery issue of the highest order.  Islam’s perpetual war against civilization must be priority number one.  The truth about it must be revealed, never concealed.  Unlike the professionals who get paid for writing and speaking, I will not be intimidated; I will not be silenced; I will not compromise.  I have presented the evidence, from translations of authentic Islamic sources. What will you do with it?  Will you ignore & forget it or will you share it with others?  Will it guide your decision in the voting booth? Will you call out liars when you see or hear them spreading falsehood? By God, I will!!!

Narrated Abdullah:

We used to participate in the holy wars carried on by the Prophet and we had no women (wives) with us. So we said (to the Prophet ). “Shall we castrate ourselves?” But the Prophet forbade us to do that and thenceforth he allowed us to marry a woman (temporarily) by giving her even a garment, and then he recited: “O you who believe! Do not make unlawful the good things which Allah has made lawful for you.”

Narrated Zaid bin Thabit: That the Prophet dictated to him: “Not equal are those of the believers who sit (at home) and those who strive and fight in the Cause of Allah.”  Zaid added: Ibn Um Maktum came while the Prophet was dictating to me and said, “O Allah’s Apostle! By Allah, if I had the power to fight (in Allah’s Cause), I would,” and he was a blind man. So Allah revealed to his Apostle while his thigh was on my thigh, and his thigh became so heavy that I was afraid it might fracture my thigh. Then that state of the Prophet passed and Allah revealed:– “Except those who are disabled (by injury or are blind or lame etc).”

Allah revealed; yeah, right.  What you see above is unmistakable evidence of situational scripture.

Minority Nominee?

I visited Wikipedia to find the Republican  primary & caucus results. I tabulated the reported vote subtotals and tabulated them.  It appears that Senator McCain  received 7,908,469 votes. The total vote reported at Wikipedia is 18,199,065.
7,908,469 voted for McCain,  10,290,596 voted for someone else.

McCain won  43.5%  of the vote.  McCain’s supporters are outnumberd by 2,382,127.  Why, exactly, are we about to nominate a RINO, who

  • opposed President Bush’s tax cuts
  • supported illegal alien amnesty
  • sponsored legislation in violation of the first amendment
  • enabled Democrats to Filibuster Supreme Court nominees
  • wants to close the prison camp at Guantanimo and give the enemy combatants unwarranted “civil liberties”
  • will not acknowledge  the identity of the enemy  who is at war with us, mislabeling it  ’radical Islam’

56.5% of Republican  caucus & primary voters do not want McCain.  We allowed cross voting left wingers in the early  voting states to select our nominee. Why are we committing electoral suicide?  We need to reverse course, and nominate a Conservative Republican.  We must  raise our objections now, well in advance of the convention.  I urge you to sign and publicize the Give Us A Conservative Choice! petition.

The petition is reproduced below for your convenience. Please copy this blog post, paste it into an email and give it the widest possible distribution.


View Current Signatures -   Sign the Petition


To:  Republican National Committee
Have you noticed that donations are declining? That the party’s base lacks enthusiasm and optimism? That turnout was low, far below that of the Democrat primaries? Have you considered possible causes?

Could it be that we have endured eight years of a RINO in the White House, who won’t veto pork laden appropriations, persevere in pursuing confirmation of his nominees or fight back against obnoxious partisanship?

Could it be that we are disgusted by the selection of Liberals masquerading as Conservatives so that we are effectively denied a choice in the primaries?

Could it be that we are disgusted by seeing our President hand in hand with an enemy who smiles in his face and stabs us in the back? Perhaps we are disgusted by a constant stream of lies about the identity of the enemy responsible for three thousand deaths one bright September morning seven years ago.

Have you considered the possibility that we Conservatives do not want four or eight more years of misgovernment mislabeled as Conservatism?

* Senator John McCain sided with the Democrats in frustrating Republican efforts to stop the Filibuster of judicial nominees.
* He co-authored McCain-Feingold, in violation of the first amendment.
* He wants to give terrorists captured on the battlefield the constitutional rights afforded to American citizens charged with domestic criminal offenses.
* He wants to leave our borders open and grant amnesty to illegal aliens.
* He panders to the Socialists with blather about “global warming” and caps on carbon dioxide emissions, which will ruin our economy and throw many people out of work.

So, I am supposed to vote for that RINO just because he will somehow win the war on terror? Yeah, wrong, he does not know who the enemy is! He blathers about “radical Islamic extremists” when the enemy is Islam.
In an interview with Dan Gilgoff, Senator McCain said::

I admire the Islam. There’s a lot of good principles in it. I think one of the great tragedies of the 21st century is that these forces of evil have perverted what’s basically an honorable religion.

Good principles, such as:

* imperialistic conquest: fighting Pagans until all resistance ceases and only Allah is worshiped [Al-Anfal 39 ]
* fighting Jews and Christians until we are subjugated and pay extortion [Al-Taubah 29] [Sahih Bukhari Volume 1, Book 8, Number 387]
* genocide: making a great slaughter is the entry ticket to Paradise [Al-Anfal 67] [Sunan Abu Dawud Book 38, Number 4390]
* terror sanctified as a battle tactic [Al-Anfal 12] [Sahih Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 220]
* If the “forces of evil” “perverted” Islam, they did it 1385 years ago when Muhammad began his career of rapine with raids on camel caravans. What must a Muslim do to be saved?

O You who believe! Shall I guide you to a commerce that will save you from a painful torment. That you believe in Allâh and His Messenger (Muhammad), and that you strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allâh with your wealth and your lives, that will be better for you, if you but know! [As-Saff 10..11 Read 9...14 for full context]

He can’t win a war without knowing the identity of the enemy!!!

No and Hell No!!! Senator McCain is no better than Senator Hilary Clinton or Senator Barack Obama. I refuse to be a party to treason — to the destruction of our economy, our liberty and the Constitution which protects them! I will not vote for the equal of evils. Nor will I vote for any congressional nor senatorial candidate who endorses Senator McCain.

Please copy this petition, paste it into an email, and send it to everyone in your address book, urging them to follow suit. Then send it to your local, state and national Republican party committees, and challenge them to direct the convention to nominate a genuine Conservative we can vote for in good conscience.
Sincerely,

Narrated Ibn Abbas:

Regarding the Verse: “And say not to anyone who offers you peace (by accepting Islam), You are not a believer.” There was a man amidst his sheep. The Muslims pursued him, and he said (to them) “Peace be on you.” But they killed him and took over his sheep. Thereupon Allah revealed in that concern, the above Verse up to:– “…seeking the perishable good of this life.” (4.94) i.e. those sheep.

Jihad

The literal meaning of Jihad is striving. Who or what are Muslims striving against when they go out for Jihad? Are they striving against their egos and temptations?  How does one suffer death or injury in that struggle?

4:74. Let those (believers) who sell the life of this world for the Hereafter fight in the Cause of Allâh, and whoso fights in the Cause of Allâh, and is killed or gets victory, We shall bestow on him a great reward.
9:111 …They fight in Allâh’s Cause, so they kill (others) and are killed….

What is fighting in Allah’s cause?

Bukhari 4.52.65 …”He who fights that Allah’s Word (i.e. Islam) should be superior, fights in Allah’s Cause.” …

Having considered Moe’s recitation &  sunnah, lets examine Sharia, the Islamic law which flows from those documents. My source is The Reliance of the Traveller and Tools of the Worshipper , described in its introduction as “a summary of the school of Imam Shafi’i “.

The meaning of Jihad is explained in Book O, Chapter 9, Paragraph  0

Jihad means to war against non-Muslims, and is etymologically derived from the word mujahada signifying warfare to establish the religion. And it is the lesser jihad. As for the greater jihad, it is spiritual warfare against the lower self (nafs), which is why the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) said as he was returning from jihad.

“We have returned from the lesser jihad to the greater jihad.”

The scriptural basis for that definition is listed as:

  1. “Fighting is prescribed for you” (Koran 2:216);
  2. “Slay them wherever you find them” (Koran 4:89);
  3. “Fight the idolators utterly” (Koran 9:36);

and such hadiths as the one related by Bukhari and Muslim that the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) said:

“I have been commanded to fight people until they testify that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and perform the prayer, and pay zakat. If they say it, they have saved their blood and possessions from me, except for the rights of Islam over them. And their final reckoning is with Allah”;

and the hadith reported by Muslim,

“To go forth in the morning or evening to fight in the path of Allah is better than the whole world and everything in it.

Paragraph 1 of this chapter reveals an important fact about the obligation of Jihad.

…there are two possible states in respect to non-Muslims.

The first is when they are in their own countries, in which case jihad (def: o9. 8) is a communal obligation, and this is what our author is speaking of when he says, “Jihad is a communal obligation,” meaning upon the Muslims each year.

The second state is when non-Muslims invade a Muslim country or near to one, in which case jihad is personally obligatory (def: c3.2) upon the inhabitants of that country, who must repel the non-Muslims with whatever they can).

A communal obligation  meaning upon the Muslims each year.  What must they do  annually?   Al-Misri informs us in the eighth paragraph of this chapter.

@O9.8: The Objectives of Jihad

The caliph (o25) makes war upon Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians (N: provided he has first invited them to enter Islam in faith and practice, and if they will not, then invited them to enter the social order of Islam by paying the non-Muslim poll tax (jizya, def: o11.4) -which is the significance of their paying it, not the money itself-while remaining in their ancestral religions) (O: and the war continues) until they become Muslim or else pay the non-Muslim poll tax (O: in accordance with the word of Allah Most High,…Koran 9:29

@O9.9

The caliph fights all other peoples until they become Muslim (O: because they are not a people with a Book, nor honored as such, and are not permitted to settle with paying the poll tax (jizya) ) (n: though according to the Hanafi school, peoples of all other religions, even idol worshippers, are permitted to live under the protection of the Islamic state if they either become Muslim or agree to pay the poll tax, the sole exceptions to which are apostates from Islam and idol worshippers who are Arabs, neither of whom has any choice but becoming Muslim (al-Hidaya sharh Bidaya al-mubtadi’ (y21), 6.48-49) ).

Where did Al-Misri get such an idea?

Al-Shafi’i (God have mercy on him) said: “The least that the imam must do is that he allow no year to pass without having organised a military expedition by himself, or by his raiding parties, according to the Muslims’ interest, so that the jihad will only be stopped in a year for a (reasonable) excuse.
Below is what Al-Ghazali actually wrote about jihad war, and the treatment of the vanquished non-Muslim dhimmi peoples (from the Wagjiz, written in 1101 A.D.): …one must go on jihad (i.e., warlike razzias or raids) at least once a year

Lets review what we have learned from  our little inquiry into Sharia.

  1. Jihad means to war against non-Muslims [and is] warfare to establish the religion.
  2. Jihad has a scriptural basis in the recitation & tradition, particularly 9:29.  & Bukhari 1.8.387
  3. Jihad is better than the whole world and everything in it.
  4. Offensive Jihad is a communal obligation to be performed every year.
  5. The Caliph makes war upon Jews, Christians and Zoroastrians. [Annually].
  6. The caliph fights all other peoples until they become Muslim.

How will you apply your new knowledge?  Will it inform your electoral decisions?  Will you share it with others or forget about it?  I want you to share it immediately with the President and your your Representative & Senators.  You can send an email to them through www.congress.org.  Enter your Zip Code, then click the Federal Officials link.  I want you to share it with your family & friends by copying this post and pasting it into an email. Ask the recipients to forward it.  Congress.org also has a link for sending an email to your favorite Presidential aspirant. Why not share your new knowledge with him or her; if you want your grandchildren to live in  free and in peace, you will!
