Army Makes History by Putting Muslim in Charge of 14,000 US Soldiers’ Spiritual Needs

In January, Lt. Col. Khallid Shabazz received the call every Army chaplain dreams of, the call that validates years of intense study and hard work toward keeping the U.S. military in good spiritual health.

He was offered the job of chaplain for an entire division, an honor for anyone in his field but a milestone in his case. After a ceremony this summer, Shabazz will become the first Muslim division-level chaplain in the history of the U.S. military – a Muslim spiritual leader for more than 14,000 mostly Christian soldiers.

He’d like to think his transition will be as smooth as those of his Christian peers, but he knows that not everyone will welcome him as warmly as the senior officers who gave him a standing ovation when the news was announced at a meeting on base.

Shabazz’s switch in faiths didn’t exactly go smoothly with the military, either. He had to write memos for even the smallest religious accommodation, such as time to perform the traditional Friday prayers. He’d fast during the holy month of Ramadan, though his schedule called for grueling work in the field. Ravenous by the end of the day, he’d come to the mess hall only to find pork chops. He’d raise concerns with his superiors from time to time, but made little ground.

Shabazz said. “I have a real opportunity to be an ambassador for the Army and for my religion.”

The Armed Forces are committing suicide. Trump should put a stop to it. Go back to “don’t ask don’t tell” and no muzzies in the services.

Sniff, Sniff, I smell another ‘fishy story’...it stinks to...

[SgtHooper]

The Chaplain must perform services for the many faiths in the command. I wonder if he does THAT!? Christians? Jews? If not, he needs to be removed. And BTW, I thought chaplains were no longer allowed to practice in the Army.

[mythenjoseph]

To begin with this fat muzzie POS would never make basic physical requirements ...and the ....well I’m glad I left the Army before the dykes and subversive communists took over. Jesus H. Christ does no one except me have the smarts to call out these animals?

Puke.

Xzins,

Other than PC symbolism, what does this appointment mean for Christian soldiers and chaplains?

I’d like your take on this.

[OldSmaj]

This is wrong.

A big mistake.

There will be consequences...mark my words.

The first time this ignorant ass-in-the-air mooselip tries to convert an impressionable young soldier to his damned cultish crap...there will be consequences.

Stupid decision by some dumb ass in the chain of command.

[GnuThere]

Yeah, proselytize much? Oh yeah, I think the Koran says he's supposed to.

[DungeonMaster]

I got saved in the Army Praise The Lord! But I did not hear the gospel from a Chaplin or a muslim, just from a Christian.

I don’t understand your comment. Are you saying that you believe that this story is fake news? It is on numerous sources in the mainstream media. Although I wouldn’t go so far as to call them “reliable” sources, in this case the story is no doubt true. It is the type of story that the MSM loves and is consistent with their agenda.

[lowbridge]

The decision was made in january. The article doesnt give an exact day, but guess who was still president then? Probably one of obamas little land mines he left behind for trump.

[mingwah]

If this Muslim has to know Christianity in order to minister to Christians then can God (of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob) use this to His Glory?
If God Almighty is Sovereign which I believe then let the glorifying begin.

A little history of Lt. Col. Khallid Shabazz and his promotion.

[Fiddlstix]

Travesty.

The future must not belong to those who deny the true nature of Islam.

John Quincy Adams on Islam

In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab of the lineage of Hagar, the Egyptian, combining the powers of transcendent genius, with the preternatural energy of a fanatic, and the fraudulent spirit of an impostor, proclaimed himself as a messenger from Heaven, and spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust, by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE.

Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. That war is yet flagrant; nor can it cease but by the extinction of that imposture, which has been permitted by Providence to prolong the degeneracy of man. While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men. The hand of Ishmael will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. It is, indeed, amongst the mysterious dealings of God, that this delusion should have been suffered for so many ages, and during so many generations of human kind, to prevail over the doctrines of the meek and peaceful and benevolent Jesus (Blunt, 1830, 29:269, capitals in orig.).
