The Israeli government has warned Muslims that "insulting Israel" is forbidden by Islamic law because the country shares its name with a prophet.
The Israeli Foreign Ministry's Arabic-language Twitter account on Saturday posted footage of an Egyptian cleric urging people to not curse the name of the Jewish state. "Did you know that insulting Israel is haram (forbidden)?" the government-run account said.
The ministry cited Khaled al-Gindi - well-known pro-government sheikh - as the source of the religious edict. "Don't insult Israel.. the word 'Israel' is the name of a prophet in Islam. Take care to not let your tongue slip and insult this word," Gindi says in a clip taken from a religious programme.
The cleric also urges viewers to "disregard their hostile stance to the state of Israel" and refrain from cursing the country by name. The provocative post comes during the holy month of Ramadan, when Muslims fast from dawn to dusk and avoid swearing during the day.
Israel is another name for the prophet Jacob, who is considered to be a prophet by Jews, Christians and Muslims.
:: Jacob, who is considered to be a prophet by Jews, Christians and Muslims. ::
2 different Jacobs.
All this Taqiyya is just laughable!
LOL- Now the muzzies will be constantly complimenting Israel?
LOL
Make ‘em play by their own rules!
Doesn’t hurt to say such, but I doubt that the Palestinians will abide by the rules set by the Jew.
They break many rules of the Koran. Killing women and children is one. Isis is totally rule breaking in many ways.
“2 different Jacobs.”
One was not our Jacob
Another knot for the nuts to try and resolve.
“One was not our Jacob”
Who is the other Jacob? Do the Moslems have another? I was under the impression that the respected Jacob because he was the ancestor of Moses, who is also a prophet of the Moslems. Please let me know if this is wrong, with some details.
One Jacob wrestled with the God of Abraham and Isaac to gain his birth-right. The God of Isreal that brought His chosen nation out of the slavery of Egypt. The Father of Jesus the Christ.
Who knows who/what the Jacob claimed by the cult of the psychopathic pedophile is.
“Israel is another name for the prophet Jacob”
And “Children of Israel” is another name for “Jew”.
Even what the Rabbi says implies a pan-theistic universalism.
Bad ju-ju to violate the 1st Commandment.
taqiyya is just what it is. Esau became the father of the Arabs. And their quran was still nearly 3,000 years away.
Judah (Jew for short) is just one of the sons of Israel. There are 11 others. The children of Israel consisted of all 12 tribes, and they will do so again.
Many of the tribes failed to keep the laws of God, and as a result, they absorbed into the country and cultures of the world.
Levi, Benjamin, and Judah are still known and recognized.
Today, there are 28 or so denomonations of “Jew” and they all don’t believe the same things.
Even in Jesus’ day, some of the priests believed in the resurrection of the dead, and some did not. Some of the priests knew and understood who Jesus was.
The first “Christians” were Jews. Some of the list tribes lived in the areas that Paul ministered to and were among the early ‘gentile’ Christians.
History is an awesome thing if you dig, and let go of the untruths developed over the years.
You might even discover your dna belongs to one of the lost tribes.
