Brother of [al-Baghdadi] Top ISIS Leader Repents, Converts to Christianity
World News Daily Report via AINA ^ | 2014-09-16 05:57 GMT

Mohammed Bakr al-Baghdadi, the brother of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, who is the Caliph of the self-proclaimed Islamic State, has converted to christianity, reports Al-Jazeera this morning. The move has brought the man an unprecedented backlash from the Salafist Sunni community that has ordered a fatwa, or death-sentence, on the man as soon as the news was spread in media around the muslim world.

"He is no more my brother then the miscreant American pigs we slay everyday" told the self-proclaimed Caliph to a large crowd of his followers. "Let Allah not forget this treacherous swine when he pleads on his knees to enter the gates of Heaven and is thrown back into the pits of Hell" he cried out, before issuing a death-sentence on his own brother's head.

Abu Bakr al-Baghadi obtained his BA, MA and PhD degrees in Islamic studies from the Islamic University of Baghdad and became a cleric at the Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal Mosque in Samarra at around the time of the US-led invasion of Iraq in 2003.

If their belief in Islam is so strong, why do they want to murder anyone who leaves the faith?

Unprecedented? It's their standard reaction to anything! Good luck to the man, maybe Saldam Rushdie has a spare bedroom for him.

Reminds me of how Goering had a brother Albert who sheltered Jews.

The Cult of death will murder anyone who become Christian. I wonder what they'd do if they convert to Judaism? They (the Islam fools) would have a fit. :-)

Sorry if I insulted fools by comparing them to Islams.

The reason is that, as long as the foolish, agenda-driven, superstitious lies of that “religion” remain shrouded in secrecy, either by language or obscurity, it can masquerade as a legitimate monotheistic faith that goes back to Abraham.

When someone reveals the abject stupidity of their texts (Such as Salmon Rushdie did with “The Satanic Verses”), they must be slain IMMEDIATELY to preserve the illusion that islam is a “peaceful” religion.

Of particular danger are learned, well versed imams who convert! They want nothing more than to split the shell of deception wide open, and shed the light of truth upon the tenets of islam.

An “educated” muslim who sees the light is more dangerous than an atomic bomb.

The story is no longer available at that link. Does that mean that the original report is not accurate? Wonder why it’s gone now ...

The story *was* there ( http://www.aina.org/search.html?query=Baghdadi ), but it’s been deleted ...

Praise the Lord! This is also a direct answer to my own prayers that God, in His mercy would save some of the most powerful and egregious Muslim leaders and persecutors of Christ and His church. In order that they too may become strong and faithful witnesses of our Lord Jesus Christ, like the Apostle Paul.

The Good News is this: If God can save Paul, God has the power to save anyone He chooses to save.

The link at the site (AINA) to the original story wasn't working when I tried it. Maybe they are trying to fix it. I don't think they would quote Al Jazeera if they hadn't said it, it makes no sense.

I did not know that - thank you! Just read about Albert after seeing your post.

Quite an interesting and courageous man.
