A media shop affiliated with a radical preacher in Dearborn, Mich., recently published a 39-minute video celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination as a "praiseworthy action" that Muslims across the United States should celebrate and repeat. The call to violence has raised red flags with Trump administration officials as they seek to deport foreign terrorist sympathizers and combat radicalism across the nation.
"The Fate of Charlie Kirk: The Insulter of the Messenger [Prophet Muhammad] and His Ruling According to Islam" was published on Oct. 10 by the English-language media outlet Project Guiding Light, a radical content mill affiliated with "pro-Islamic State" preacher Ahmad Musa Jibril, according to the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI).
The video, which amplifies Jibril's brand of radicalism, circulated on YouTube, X, Instagram, and Telegram. It remains accessible on an Instagram page affiliated with Project Guiding Light, which also includes links to Jibril's personal webpage and features the cleric in several posts.
Jibril—who "served six and a half years in prison for conspiracy, fraud, money laundering, and possession of firearms and ammunition"—has fomented radicalism for the better part of a decade, according to MEMRI. Born in Michigan, Jibril has established himself as the "most popular cleric amongst Western jihadis," influencing "ISIS supporters and militants" as far as Africa, as detailed in research materials MEMRI provided to the Washington Free Beacon.
Project Guiding Light's video—which MEMRI says is "conveying Jibril's views"—opens with a montage of Muslims in the United States condemning Kirk's alleged assassin, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson. It then goes on to dub these moderate Muslims "clowns" and "sellouts."
"To see these clowns rush to condemn such an act in the name of Islam that had nothing to do with Islam or the Muslims to begin with begs a question: What is their motive for such a swift and unsolicited condemnation? Who are they trying to appease?" a narrator asks before saying that "Muslims should be rejoicing and thanking Allah" for Kirk's death.
The video alleges that Kirk insulted the Muslim prophet Mohammed and that his murder is therefore permissible under Islamic law.
"Whoever insults the Prophet or disparages him, whether Muslim or disbeliever, then he is to be killed," the narrator states. "What greater enemy to the Sharia [Islamic law] is there than someone who insults the Messenger and by extension Allah?"
The narrator says the Quran endorses vigilante justice before asking, "How can you clowns then condemn an action the Prophet praised?"
Citing additional passages from the Quran as a guide, the narrator argues that faithful Muslims historically celebrated the violent slaughter of those who oppose the faith or are deemed blasphemers.
"An oppressor, who used to harm and butcher Muslims, was burned alive essentially," the narrator says. "The Muslims, what did they do? They were ecstatic at his death."
He states that Kirk, like many historic figures referenced in the Quran, was "at war with Islam" and deserves no sympathy. Believers should in turn be "thanking Allah for ridding the Muslims of an open and transgressing enemy."
The video's second chapter details at length why those who "insult the messenger deserve death" under Sharia law.
"As Muslims, what should or shouldn't happen to someone, especially in terms of life and death, is based on the Sharia of Allah alone," the narrator argues. "The overwhelming majority of the people of knowledge have agreed that whoever insults the Prophet is [unrestrictedly] to be killed."
Jibril himself "is considered to have inspired several jihadi attacks and initiatives in the West," according to MEMRI. Upon his release from prison in 2012, he was banned from using the internet for three years. While he has not personally released new content since that time, the Guiding Light Project continues to promote the radical views Jibril is known for.
Sixty percent of foreign jihadists followed Jibril's social media accounts while he was active online, according to a King's College report. His work has received praise from "ISIS militants and members," including from an Australian ISIS fighter in Syria.
Trump administration officials who spoke to the Washington Free Beacon said they are aware of the radical messaging the Guiding Light Project and others have spread about Kirk's murder. The State Department last week revoked the visas of at least six foreigners who celebrated Kirk's assassination online. While Jibril is immune to such action, his foreign-born supporters in America are not.
"Any individual on a visa is a guest in our country," one senior U.S. official told the Free Beacon. "If he or she chooses to promote violence against Americans, including patriots like Charlie Kirk, then they are no longer welcome here. It's as simple as that."
A State Department official echoed this sentiment, saying "the United States will no longer welcome aliens who pose a threat to our national security."
"This includes foreigners who celebrate the death of our fellow citizens," the official added. "Every one of them has been put on notice."
Neither Jibril nor Project Guiding Light responded to Free Beacon requests for comment.
ISlime is of satan.
Trump is good, but we need Pinochet.
All post Christian countries in history have fallen to Islam
Shut it down and deport them.
There needs to be a new crusades. This time where the Knights Templar’s finish off the Wahhabi’s forever. /spit
Spain drove out Islam but it took hundreds of year. One of the reasons that Spain and Portugal became so devoted to missionary work and when they came to the new world and went elsewhere around the world, they brought Christianity with them, expanding Christianity too much greater number of adherence.
KISS MICHIGAN GOODBYE.
SURE GLAD I AM NEVER BUYING ANOTHER CAR
And in a month New York City
He wants others to go and kill but he’s to important to risk being put in harms way so he’ll cheer them on while he leads from behind . . . way behind so he doesn’t get blood on his expensive clothes.
Sounds like a lot of the Woketards we see on tic-tok screaming about ICE.
Birds of a feather.
Agreed. I would argue the difference was that France and Spain still had faith. They had not yet descended into sodomite nihilism. Today they will not make a stand against Islam
