'Terrorists aren't Muslims': Brave Brit's anti-ISIS video goes viral
Daily Star ^ | 7-14-2015 | Laura Mitchell

Posted on 07/14/2015 9:05:40 AM PDT by Citizen Zed

A YOUNG British Muslim has posted a powerful message in a video titled 'A message to ISIS - From a British Muslim'.

The inspiring video sees Haseeb Ahmed urging people of all religions, including Muslims, to condemn Islamist extremists in the wake of the Tunisian beach attack.

The 28-year-old speaks out about the horror of the Tunisian massacre and urges everyone to come together against the evil radicals.

Haseeb, from Banbury, Oxfordshire, said: "I've seen a lot of comments online about how muslims together haven't actually spoken out much about the atrocities last week.

"I urge everyone to condemn these acts.

"I'm a very proud British Muslim and hopefully everyone should unite and be together and stand against these terrorists who aren't Muslims."

The terrorist attack in the resort of Sousse on 26 June killed 38 people, including 30 Britons.

Cruel militants opened fire on innocent civilians as they lay on the beaches surrounding their hotels.

In this viral video, which has already been viewed over three million times, Haseeb stresses that the people behind these atrocities are NOT Muslim.

"They say that they're muslims and they recite all these versus taken out of context," he said.

"I'm a British Muslim and I condemn these actions, all terrorist actions."

Haseeb, who went to university in Bristol, also emphasised the fact that "killing anybody is against Islam".

He said: "It says in the Koran killing one person is like killing the whole of humanity.

"The majority of muslims are peaceful people, like myself. You have good and bad in every religion, in every community.

"This is a time when people should unite, whether you're Muslim or non-Muslim, you should always condemn these kind of actions."

The video has been met with thousands of messages of solidarity.

You can put the cart before the horse or the horse before the cart, but you’ve still got a horse and a cart.

He’d be advised to go into hiding.

I suppose Islam was way ahead of its time, having a built-in psyops wing.

Are all Muslims terrorists or terror supporters?

Best thing England can do is — boot them all out.

That way the question is moot.

Actually those come in all colors and flavors. Terrorists aren't muslins, eh, but somehow it seems muslins are terrorists. Such a conundrum.

The few Muslims I know are very good people.

However, I also have noted that they have kept silent on the dark side of their religion.

This may work now.

But not forever.

He said:
"It says in the Koran killing one person is like killing the whole of humanity."

and

"They say that they're muslims and they recite all these versus taken out of context," he said. "

The author is the one taking qur'anic quotes out of context.

The law of Islamic abrogation undermines all attempts to moderate the faith which is see FPM: CSPI, Abrogation, dualism in Islam... in nature.

Our first clue about the dualism is in the Qur'ran, which is actually two books, the Qur'ran of Mecca (early) and the Qur'ran of Medina (later).

The insight into the logic of the Qur'ran comes from the large numbers of contradictions in it. On the surface, Islam resolves these contradictions by resorting to “abrogation”. This means that the verse written later supersedes the earlier verse.

But in fact, since the Qur'ran is considered by Muslims to be the perfect word of Allah, both verses are sacred and true. The later verse is “better,” but the earlier verse cannot be wrong since Allah is perfect. This is the foundation of dualism. Both verses are “right.” Both sides of the contradiction are true in dualistic logic. The circumstances govern which verse is used.

This deception is likely part and parcel of the massive Islamophilic propaganda campaign mentioned here:

My teacher, Asim, a dear friend, categorically states that the Quran says that no murderer can go to heaven.

Haseeb, who went to university in Bristol, also emphasised the fact that “killing anybody is against Islam”. .....And that is why 65% of the Koran is dedicated to who you may kill, enslave and tax.

I work with three Muslims and know several others who are very nice people. Thoroughly Americanized. One was in the military and was as honorable as any other soldier. They hold the exact same opinions on ISIS as pretty much every other American. But as you said, we aren’t getting into any awkward conversations at work about whether Islam results in terrorism.

Exactly. I work with a number of Muslims who seem peaceful enough but they don’t lift a finger to do anything about groups like ISIS or HAMAS. They might SAY these groups aren’t real Muslims but they do absolutely nothing to stop them.

Asim is probably right but the catch is in how murder is defined. So far as I can determine killing someone because they leave Islam or because they refuse to either convert to Islam or pay the Jizya does not meet their definition of murder. There are certainly other instances which I have not mentioned.

Supremacists can be of any race, creed or color. There are plenty of supremacists who “are’nt white”.

Good post.

Can you comment on Atatürk’s (Father of the Turks) and his success in turning the Muslim expression of Islam inward as an internal faith to be fought inside a person’s own self rather than in outside acts of aggression? He seemed to have created a secular society that resulted in modernization of Turkey (although they are backtracking now).

Briefly...Atatürk was a product of his time, during one of the weakest periods of Islamic history. He held office from 29 October 1923 – 10 November 1938. Author Bat Ye’or explains the political restructuring between ME & European policies during post WWII reconstruction in her book “Eurabia”. Islam was busy during this post war period building beach-heads in Europe and then after the Siege of Mecca in ‘79 (coincident w/Iranian hostage crisis) Saudi Arabia’s hand was forced to use it’s oil wealth to expand Islam’s influence throughout the world (beyond Europe)in order to remain protector of Islam’s holy places. The world is a very different place with the rapid expansion of “Islam is Peace” machine.

...states that the Quran says that no murderer can go to heaven...

It also very clearly states that killing an infidel is not murder.

"My teacher, Asim, a dear friend, categorically states that the Quran says that no murderer can go to heaven."

And yet they believe if they are killed fighting for Islam, you know, like blowing up a bus or a pizza restaurant, they are instantly transported to paradise. Weird, huh?
