The world must wage war on this militant Islamic ideology and not just on the resulting terrorist actions. It must go to the route, like this simple Mosque. Not doing so will result in no victory in the war on terrorism, as every terrorist killed or captured will simply be replaced by someone with this cancerous ideology. But so far, political correctness has the upper hand.

SAUDI ARABIA:

Riyadh Kingdom of Saudi Arabia TV1 in Arabic, official television station of the Saudi Government, at 0935 GMT carries a 30-minute live sermon from the holy mosque in Mecca.

Shaykh Abd-al-Rahman Bin-Abd-al-Aziz al-Sudays delivers the sermon. He praises God, the messenger, and his companions and calls on Muslims to obey God as a way to paradise. The imam urges Muslims who have become bored with everyday life and who plan to take summer vacations, to follow God's orders, abide by good conduct, and not waste time. The imam urges society to care for youngsters during summer vacations, "especially since recent incidents have misled some of them and made them adopt crooked views, which are likely to ruin their minds and harm their country's security." This, he also says, should prompt society to fill the youths' spare time with useful programs and stresses the need for parents "to watch their sons' movements and behavior, to explore any misconduct on their part, and to try to open a constructive dialogue with them."

As a result of too much leisure time and the absence of familial control, the imam says, "serious intellectual distortions have affected youths, forcing them to resort to alcohol, to drown in the quagmire of drugs, and to commit crime." Assailing extremism and terrorism, the imam says: "Other groups suffer from intellectual deviation, which leads them to extremism, violence, and terrorism. Therefore, they are viewed as a fatal disease in the body of the nation. Crime reached its climax after they used the Koran as a booby trap and exploited mosques for their own purposes. Even worse is the wave of terrorism and infidelity in the country of the two holy mosques, may God protect it and preserve its security. If a person becomes corrupt and plans to commit aggression against his society's security and stability, then he should be punished under Islamic law in order to protect the society and its individuals from crime."

The imam then expresses sorrow for the "innocent youths, who have been victimized" by violence and urges society to fortify itself by working out an intellectual security system and to persuade youths that "Islam forbids killing non-Muslims, terrorizing innocent people, or plundering their property." The imam also calls on the ulema, mass media organ, and writers to enlighten youths and guide them to the right path in order "to foil the designs of the enemies, who use certain incidents to achieve their suspect goals." By this, he says, we do not mean that we should not have confidence in youths, because the majority of them are moderate and lead a good life.

Concluding, the imam prays to God: "O God, strengthen Islam and Muslims, humiliate infidelity and infidels, destroy the enemies of our nation and religion, and grant safety and prosperity to the country and the other Islamic countries." He goes on: "O God, support our mujahidin brothers everywhere. O God, help them score victory over the unjust Jews and aggressive Zionists in Palestine. O God, destroy the Jews and their supporters. O God, destroy them, for they are within your power. O God, disperse them and make them prey for Muslims."

Riyadh Kingdom of Saudi Arabic TV2 in Arabic, official television station of the Saudi Government, at 0935 GMT carries a 24-minute live sermon from the holy mosque in Medina.

Shaykh Salah al-Budayr delivers the sermon. He begins by praising God, the messenger, and his companions and says that man needs a wife to live a quiet life based on mutual respect and love, warning husbands against mistreating their wives in violation of Islamic law. The imam devotes his entire sermon to the importance of marriage and marital life.

Concluding, the imam prays to God: "O God, strengthen Islam and Muslims, humiliate infidelity and infidels, and destroy the aggressive unbelievers. O God, grant us safety in our homelands and give wisdom to our imams and leaders." He goes on: "O God, support our brothers in Palestine against the usurper Jews. O God, deal with the tyrant, unjust, corrupt, and aggressive Jews. O God, shake the ground under them, instill panic into their hearts, and make them prey for Muslim."

Islam is like the Roach Motel - you can check in but you cant check out:

I am currently in a philosophy of religion class and my teacher is an atheist. He claims that under an Islamic state if a born Muslim converts to another religion he is killed. Please tell me if this is true.


Answer :

Praise be to Allaah.

The punishment for apostasy (riddah) is well-known in Islaamic Sharee’ah. The one who leaves Islaam will be asked to repent by the Sharee’ah judge in an Islaamic country; if he does not repent and come back to the true religion, he will be killed as a kaafir and apostate, because of the command of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): "Whoever changes his religion, kill him." (Reported by al-Bukhaari, 3017).

It is well-known in Sharee’ah that the punishments (hudood) are not carried out on minors, because they have not yet reached the age of responsibility; but in the case of those who have reached the age of responsibility, the punishment (hadd) applies, without a doubt.

The person who knows the truth and believes in it, then turns his back on it, does not deserve to live. The punishment for apostasy is prescribed for the protection of the religion and as a deterrent to anyone who is thinking of leaving Islaam. There is no doubt that such a serious crime must be met with an equally weighty punishment. If the kuffaar do not give people the freedom to cross a red light, how can we give freedom to people to leave Islaam and disbelieve in Allaah when they want to?

It seems that the intention of the teacher mentioned in the question was to shock the students with news of this ruling, in order to mislead them from the way of Allaah. You must respond and explain to him and the other students as much as you can.

May Allaah make you and us bearers of His Message and defenders of His Sharee’a

Saudi Sermon: Time for Christians and Jews to Convert to Islam

Christians and Jews respond: Time for you to bend over and kiss your @$$ goodbye, Saudi scum...

I heartily urinate on "islamist instruction. Let their followers come to me, to reap the full measure of their reward. I promise to kill each and every one of them with no less than a .357 magnum round if at all possible.

I've got news for the dummy: We'll never worship your moon god; we're going to destroy you. It must be humiliating knowing your ancestors were too cowardly to stand up to the murdering, jabbering dervishes of islam, but we're not like your ancestors.

[baseballmom]

I've worked with a few people who are Muslim converts. They were Christian, blacks, who converted over a period of time. On Sept 11 and after we talked at length about the hatred of Muslims for the "infidels", and they were absolutely adamant and unequivocal that this terror and murder wasn't Islam, this was some fanatic sect.

[Poodlebrain]

Muslim clerics have been praying to Allah for the destruction of Israel since its creation in 1948. The Jews have been praying for God to protect Israel during the same period. Both claim to be praying to the same God of Abraham. Who's prayers appear to be getting answered?

I'd like to ask that question to the Imam as a rejoinder to his statement regarding religious conversions. I realize 55 years is not long on historic/scriptural terms, but surely the Imam would expect some sort of progress toward the destruction of Israel during the life span of a devout Muslim as a sign of Allah's favor.

Surely you made all of this stuff up. I know that Islam is a religion of peace. No official leader of the faith would spread such hatred and murderous thought. They are just so misunderstood. It is just a few militants who have distorted the doctrine. Sure.
