The Muslim Council of Britain has gained worldwide headlines — and praise — for the announcement. Secretary of State Tillerson said Monday in New Zealand: “I was actually encouraged when I heard on the news this morning that a number of imams in London have condemned these attackers and said they will not perform prayer services over their funerals, which means they’re condemning their souls. And that is what has to be done, and only the Muslim faith can handle this.”
Moderate Muslims stand up at last, right? Here is the MCB’s statement:
“Over 130 Imams & Religious Leaders from diverse backgrounds refuse to perform the funeral prayer for London attackers in an unprecedented move,” Muslim Council of Britain, June 5, 2017
“ Imams and religious leaders from across the country and a range of schools of thought have come together to issue a public statement condemning the recent terror attack in London and conveying their pain at the suffering of the victims and their families.
In an unprecedented move, they have not only refused to perform the traditional Islamic prayer for the terrorist – a ritual that is normally performed for every Muslim regardless of their actions – but also have called on others to do the same. They said:
“Consequently, and in light of other such ethical principles which are quintessential to Islam, we will not perform the traditional Islamic funeral prayer over the perpetrators and we also urge fellow imams and religious authorities to withdraw such a privilege. This is because such indefensible actions are completely at odds with the lofty teachings of Islam.”
This all sounds great, but there’s just one catch: Muhammad is depicted in hadiths as forbidding funeral prayers for martyrs, and Islamic law forbids such prayers as well:

How many volunteered?.....................
It is called taqiya - or “how to con stupid infidels” - like Tillerson.
A few of these imams probably do not agree with terrorism. But they ALL agree that Great Britain must come under sharia law. So it really doesn’t matter. Terrorism is just a side show distraction for the West.
And it works to evil perfection.
Why did they condemn them? The body count was too low?
So what, the jihadis believe they’ll get their 72 virgins. Any imams disputing that?
This is not so much a war on terror as it is assisted suicide.
“It is unlawful to wash the body of a martyr (O: even if in a state of major ritual impurity (janaba) or the like) or perform the funeral prayer over him. A martyr (shahid) means someone who died in battle with non-Muslims
Great. Now condemn violent jihad in Friday prayers.
What naive Kafir nonsense from Tillerson.
Fundamental Muslims know Jihadis who die fighting for Islam have their sins forgiven and go immediately to fhe top level of heaven and do not have to wait until judgment day like the rest of us Kafirs and Muslims ,to see where we are going.
That is the motivation for Muslim suicide attacks against us Kafirs- an instant heavenly reward from Allah. -Tom
You are correct, I am sorry to say.
It is a lie.
130 out of how many? 1000? 10,000? 100,000?....
They’re lying.
