Saudi Arabia’s Top Cleric: Fighting Jews Forbidden, Hamas a Terror group
United with Israel ^ | Nov 17, 2017 | United with Israel Staff

Posted on 11/19/2017 5:39:32 PM PST by smileyface

The Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia issued a ruling forbidding war against the Jews and proclaiming that Hamas is a terror group.

The Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia, Abdulaziz Al Sheikh, issued a surprising religious ruling, saying that fighting against Israel was inappropriate and that Hamas is a “terror organization.”

The Muslim cleric issued the ruling while answering a question on a television program regarding the Palestinian riots surrounding the Temple Mount in July, Turkey’s Anadolu news agency reported.

Israel’s Communications Minister Ayoub Kara welcomed the unexpected decision and invited the Mufti to visit Israel.

Obama had eight years.

Trump has had 10 months.

I rest my case.

Interesting. I wonder how this is going to go over in the rest of the Arab world?

I’d want to know if this guy had his fingers crossed behind his back while saying this.

I wonder if this is related to the arrests of all those “princes” in Saudi Arabia, and to the discussion that Trump had with them in private during his trip over there.

That Arab summit against terrorism earlier this year wasn't a waste of time it seems.

Evidently Arabs are tired of being exposed to the same terrorist groups that target us. About time...

Trump's admonition seems to be paying off. Isn't it interesting how asking the Arabs to help us fight terrorism, works better than making excuses why Arabs are justified carrying out terrorism against us? (Que the Obama excuses...)

Can we put Khadafy’s son in charge of Libya? Send back the refugees.

I’m shocked and gladdened by this news. Maybe the worm is turning?

His ruling is in line with the Qu'ran, which very clearly states that the land Hamas claims was promised by Allah to the Hebrews. It actually validates the land that God (HaShem) bequeathed to the Jews after the Exodus, which is FAR larger than modern Israel and the "West Bank."

ANY Muslim who denies the eternal Jewish homeland is Israel is an apostate.

Taqiyya, permissible lying and deceiving to further Islam.

But what IS "Islam"? Is it adherence to the Koran? If so, that book declares that Allah gave Israel to the Hebrews.

yes they are. I’m going to have to add the future king in my prayers for safety and good health.

But mark my words — our left is going to turn against Saudi Arabia because it’s going to be Saudi money vs Soros money and our left take marching orders from Soros.

President Trump has remaking the world. Improved relations with China, some type of reform going on in the Arab world — we’ll see how that ends up.

The only countries fighting Trump are the Western European. Germany, France, with England trending towards anti-Trump and trying to hide it because it’s shameful after all we’ve the U.S has done for Europe, and England in particular.

Don’t know about the former.

But I’m all for sending any Muslim refugees packing.
