Myth vs Fact

Myth	Fact
Islam: Religion of peace.	Sahih Bukhari Volume 5, Book 59, Number 369: Narrated Jabir bin ‘Abdullah: Allah’s Apostle said, “Who is willing to kill Ka’b bin Al-Ashraf who has hurt Allah and His Apostle?” Thereupon Muhammad bin Maslama got up saying, “O Allah’s Apostle! Would you like that I kill him?” The Prophet said, “Yes,” Muhammad bin Maslama said, “Then allow me to say a (false) thing (i.e. to deceive Kab). “The Prophet said, “You may say it.” Then Muhammad bin Maslama went to Kab and said, “That man (i.e. Muhammad demands Sadaqa (i.e. Zakat) from us, and he has troubled us, and I have come to borrow something from you.” On that, Kab said, “By Allah, you will get tired of him!” Muhammad bin Maslama said, “Now as we have followed him, we do not want to leave him unless and until we see how his end is going to be. Now we want you to lend us a camel load or two of food.” (Some difference between narrators about a camel load or two.) Kab said, “Yes, (I will lend you), but you should mortgage something to me.” Muhammad bin Mas-lama and his companion said, “What do you want?” Ka’b replied, “Mortgage your women to me.” They said, “How can we mortgage our women to you and you are the most handsome of the ‘Arabs?” Ka’b said, “Then mortgage your sons to me.” They said, “How can we mortgage our sons to you? Later they would be abused by the people’s saying that so-and-so has been mortgaged for a camel load of food. That would cause us great disgrace, but we will mortgage our arms to you.” Muhammad bin Maslama and his companion promised Kab that Muhammad would return to him. He came to Kab at night along with Kab’s foster brother, Abu Na’ila. Kab invited them to come into his fort, and then he went down to them. His wife asked him, “Where are you going at this time?” Kab replied, “None but Muhammad bin Maslama and my (foster) brother Abu Na’ila have come.” His wife said, “I hear a voice as if dropping blood is from him, Ka’b said. “They are none but my brother Muhammad bin Maslama and my foster brother Abu Naila. A generous man should respond to a call at night even if invited to be killed.” Muhammad bin Maslama went with two men. (Some narrators mention the men as ‘Abu bin Jabr. Al Harith bin Aus and Abbad bin Bishr). So Muhammad bin Maslama went in together with two men, and sail to them, “When Ka’b comes, I will touch his hair and smell it, and when you see that I have got hold of his head, strip him. I will let you smell his head.” Kab bin Al-Ashraf came down to them wrapped in his clothes, and diffusing perfume. Muhammad bin Maslama said. ” have never smelt a better scent than this. Ka’b replied. “I have got the best ‘Arab women who know how to use the high class of perfume.” Muhammad bin Maslama requested Ka’b “Will you allow me to smell your head?” Ka’b said, “Yes.” Muhammad smelt it and made his companions smell it as well. Then he requested Ka’b again, “Will you let me (smell your head)?” Ka’b said, “Yes.” When Muhammad got a strong hold of him, he said (to his companions), “Get at him!” So they killed him and went to the Prophet and informed him. (Abu Rafi) was killed after Ka’b bin Al-Ashraf.”
Tafsir

Obamanation: Bad Association!

From the cover of  Trumpet  Newsmagazine  for the socially conscious:

“Empowerment  The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan”

On Page 15 of the print edition; page 12 of the pdf we find these words:

“When Minister Farrakhan speaks, Black America listens,” says
the Rev. Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright, likening the Minister’s influence to
the E. F. Hutton commercials of old. “Everybody may not agree with
him, but they listen…His depth on analysis when it comes to the
racial ills of this nation is astounding and eye opening. He brings a
perspective that is helpful and honest.  “Minister Farrakhan will be
remembered as one of the 20th and 21st century giants of the African
American religious experience,” continues Wright. “

Rev. Wright describes Farrakhan as “a catalyst for change”.  Gee whiz, ain’t change Obama’s mantra?  Do the Senator and the “Minister” have something in common?

Because of the Minister’s influence in the African American
community, Trumpet Newsmagazine honors him this winter at its
Sounds of the Shore gala with an Empowerment Award. It seemed
a fitting tribute for a storied life well lived

Gems of wisdom from Minister Farrakhan: [Brainy Quote]

• Anarchy may await America, due to the daily injustices suffered by the people.
  Louis Farrakhan
• As a result of that, America desires a moderate Islam; an Islam that America can control; an Islam that America can give direction to and give orders to its leaders.
  Louis Farrakhan
• I think that rather than condemning Islam, Islam needs to be studied by those who are sincere.
  Louis Farrakhan
• If we don’t make earnest moves toward real solutions, then each day we move one day closer to revolution and anarchy in this country. This is the sad, and yet potentially joyous, state of America.
  Louis Farrakhan
• Many of the Jews who owned the homes, the apartments in the black community, we considered them bloodsuckers because they took from our community and built their community but didn’t offer anything back to our community.
  Louis Farrakhan
• Qaddafi is hated because he is the leader of a small country that is rich, but he uses his money to finance liberation struggles.
  Louis Farrakhan
• So, this war is against the Islam that the West does not control.
  Louis Farrakhan 
• The Bush administration does not desire to see Islam practiced in its pristine purity.
  Louis Farrakhan
• They call them terrorists, I call them freedom fighters.
  Louis Farrakhan

Rev. Wright, Senator Obama’s mentor, honors a racemongering bigot & antisemite who threatens anarchy and describes terrorists as “freedom fighters”

Do we want, as our President, a man whose spitual advisor honors a bigot?  Maybe you do, but I damn well dont!!!
