The Beheading of Paul Johnson

| WARNING | | The images below are EXTREMELY gruesome and graphic. |
Kidnapping, murder, decapitation, mutilation, torture, terror, burning, hanging, and gloating are all justified, even glorified Islamic behaviors. For those who have been fooled by our media, our politicians and clerics into believing that Islam is a peaceful religion and that we all worship the same God, what follows is a cold dose of reality. The simple truth is: the terrorists have not corrupted their religion, Islam has corrupted them. All good Muslims are terrorists. Qur'an 8:12 Your Lord inspired the angels with the message: I am with you. Give firmness to the Believers. I will terrorize the unbelievers. Therefore smite them on their necks and every joint and incapacitate them. Strike off their heads and cut off each of their fingers and toes. Qur'an 8:57 If you gain mastery over them in battle, inflict such a defeat as would terrorize them, so that they would learn a lesson and be warned. Ishaq:326 If you come upon them, deal so forcibly as to terrify those who would follow, that they may be warned. Make a severe example of them by terrorizing Allah's enemies. Qur'an 8:67 It is not fitting for any prophet to have prisoners until he has made a great slaughter in the land. Bukhari:V4B52N220 Allah's Apostle said, I have been made victorious with terror.' Ishaq:588 When the Apostle descends on your land none of your people will be left when he leaves. Ishaq:327 Allah said, A prophet must slaughter before collecting captives. A slaughtered enemy is driven from the land. Muhammad, you craved the desires of this world, its goods and the ransom captives would bring. But Allah desires killing them to manifest the religion.' Qur'an 9:5 Fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, take them captive, harass them, lie in wait and ambush them using every stratagem of war. Tabari VII:133/Ishaq:387 When Muhammad saw Hamzah he said, If Allah gives me victory over the Quraysh at any time, I shall mutilate thirty of their men!' When the Muslims saw the rage of the Prophet they said, By Allah, if we are victorious over them, we shall mutilate them in a way which no Arab has ever mutilated anybody. Qur'an 47:4 So, when you clash with the unbelieving Infidels in battle, fighting Jihad in Allah's Cause, smite their necks until you overpower them, killing and wounding many of them. At length, when you have thoroughly subdued them, bind them firmly, making (them) captives. Thereafter either generosity or ransom (them based upon what benefits Islam) until the war lays down its burdens. Thus are you commanded by Allah to continue carrying out Jihad against the unbelieving infidels until they submit to Islam. Tabari VIII:122/Ishaq:515 The Prophet gave orders concerning Kinanah to Zubayr, saying, Torture him until you root out and extract what he has. So Zubayr kindled a fire on Kinanah's chest, twirling it with his firestick until Kinanah was near death. Then the Messenger gave him to Maslamah, who beheaded him. Bukhari:V4B54N487 The Prophet said, The Hell Fire is 69 times hotter than ordinary worldly fires.' So someone said, Allah's Apostle, wouldn't this ordinary fire have been sufficient to torture the unbelievers?' Bukhari:V4B52N260 Ali burnt some and this news reached Ibn Abbas, who said, Had I been in his place I would not have burnt them, as the Prophet said, Don't punish with Allah's Punishment. No doubt, I would have killed them, for the Prophet said, If a Muslim discards his Islamic religion, kill him.' Qur'an 33:26 Allah made the Jews leave their homes by terrorizing them so that you killed some and made many captive. And He made you inherit their lands, their homes, and their wealth. He gave you a country you had not traversed before. Ishaq:580 Our strong warriors obey his orders to the letter. By us Allah's religion is undeniably strong. You would think when our horses gallop with bits in their mouths that the sounds of demons are among them. The day we trod down the unbelievers there was no deviation or turning from the Apostle's order. During the battle the people heard our exhortations to fight and the smashing of skulls by swords that sent heads flying. We severed necks with a warrior's blow. Often we have left the slain cut to pieces and a widow crying alas over her mutilated husband. 'Tis Allah, not man we seek to please. Tabari IX:69 He who believes in Allah and His Messenger has protected his life and possessions from us. As for those who disbelieve, we will fight them forever in the Cause of Allah. Killing them is a small matter to us. Ishaq:489 Do the bastards think that we are not their equal in fighting? We are men who think that there is no shame in killing. Qur'an 2:191 And kill them wherever you find and catch them. Drive them out from where they have turned you out; for Al-Fitnah (polytheism, disbelief, oppression) is worse than slaughter. Qur'an 33:60 If the Hypocrites stir up sedition, if the agitators in the city do not desist, We shall urge you to go against them and set you over them. Then they will not be able to stay as your neighbors. They shall have a curse on them. Whenever they are found, they shall be seized and slain without mercya fierce slaughtermurdered, a horrible murdering. Bukhari:V5B59N512 The Prophet offered the Fajr Prayer near Khaybar when it was still dark. He said, Allahu-Akbar!' Khaybar is destroyed, for whenever we approach a hostile nation to fight, then evil will be the morning for those who have been warned.' Then the inhabitants came out running on their roads. The Prophet had their men killed; their children and woman were taken as captives. Qur'an 5:33 The punishment for those who wage war against Allah and His Prophet and make mischief in the land, is to murder them, crucify them, or cut off a hand and foot on opposite sides...their doom is dreadful. They will not escape the fire, suffering constantly.
A quick review of the Islamic scriptures is sufficient to prove that Islam breeds violence. Here is a taste of what Muhammad and his god had to say about fighting: Bukhari:V4B52N50 The Prophet said, A single endeavor of fighting in Allah's Cause is better than the world and whatever is in it.' Ishaq:587 Our onslaught will not be a weak faltering affair. We shall fight as long as we live. We will fight until you turn to Islam, humbly seeking refuge. We will fight not caring whom we meet. We will fight whether we destroy ancient holdings or newly gotten gains. We have mutilated every opponent. We have driven them violently before us at the command of Allah and Islam. We will fight until our religion is established. And we will plunder them, for they must suffer disgrace. Qur'an 9:88 The Messenger and those who believe with him, strive hard and fight with their wealth and lives in Allah's Cause. Qur'an 9:5 Fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, take them captive, harass them, lie in wait and ambush them using every stratagem of war. Qur'an 9:111 The Believers fight in Allah's Cause, they slay and are slain, kill and are killed. Qur'an 8:39 Fight them until all opposition ends and all submit to Allah. Ishaq:324 Fight them so that there is no more rebellion, and religion, all of it, is for Allah only. Allah must not have rivals. Qur'an 9:14 Fight them and Allah will punish them by your hands, lay them low, and cover them with shame. He will help you over them. Ishaq:300 I am fighting in Allah's service. This is piety and a good deed. In Allah's war I do not fear as others should. For this fighting is righteous, true, and good. Qur'an 9:29 Fight those who do not believe until they all surrender, paying the protective tax in submission. Ishaq:325 Muslims, fight in Allah's Cause. Stand firm and you will prosper. Qur'an 8:65 O Prophet, urge the faithful to fight. If there are twenty among you with determination they will vanquish two hundred; if there are a hundred then they will slaughter a thousand unbelievers, for the infidels are a people devoid of understanding. Bukhari:V4B52N63 A man whose face was covered with an iron mask came to the Prophet and said, Allah's Apostle! Shall I fight or embrace Islam first?' The Prophet said, Embrace Islam first and then fight.' So he embraced Islam, and was martyred. Allah's Apostle said, A Little work, but a great reward.' Bukhari:V4B53N386 Our Prophet ordered us to fight you till you worship Allah alone or pay us the Jizyah tribute tax in submission. Our Prophet has informed us that our Lord says: Whoever amongst us is killed as a martyr shall go to Paradise to lead such a luxurious life as he has never seen, and whoever survives shall become your master.'
Terror is mainstream Islam. Even Muhammad was a terroristleading 75 brutal raids in less than 10 years. Osama bin Laden is just following his example. Here is a sampling of what Muhammad and Allah said about terror: Bukhari:V4B52N220 Allah's Apostle said, I have been made victorious with terror.' Qur'an 8:12 I shall terrorize the infidels. So wound their bodies and incapacitate them because they oppose Allah and His Apostle. Qur'an 8:57 If you gain mastery over them in battle, inflict such a defeat as would terrorize them, so that they would learn a lesson and be warned. Ishaq:326 If you come upon them, deal so forcibly as to terrify those who would follow, that they may be warned. Make a severe example of them by terrorizing Allah's enemies. Qur'an 8:67 It is not fitting for any prophet to have prisoners until he has made a great slaughter in the land. Ishaq:588 When the Apostle descends on your land none of your people will be left when he leaves. Tabari IX:42 We have been dealt a situation from which there is no escape. You have seen what Muhammad has done. Arabs have submitted to him and we do not have the strength to fight. You know that no herd is safe from him. And no one even dares go outside for fear of being terrorized. Ishaq:326 Allah said, No Prophet before Muhammad took booty from his enemy nor prisoners for ransom.' Muhammad said, I was made victorious with terror. The earth was made a place for me to clean.' Ishaq:327 Allah said, A prophet must slaughter before collecting captives. A slaughtered enemy is driven from the land. Muhammad, you craved the desires of this world, its goods and the ransom captives would bring. But Allah desires killing them to manifest the religion.' Qur'an 7:3 Little do you remember My warning. How many towns have We destroyed as a raid by night? Our punishment took them suddenly while they slept for their afternoon rest. Our terror came to them; Our punishment overtook them. Ishaq:510 When the Apostle looked down on Khaybar he told his Companions, O Allah, Lord of the Devils and what into error they throw, and Lord of the winds and what they winnow, we ask Thee for the booty of this town and its people. Forward in the name of Allah.' He used to say this of every town he raided. Bukhari:V5B59N512 The Prophet offered the Fajr Prayer near Khaybar when it was still dark. He said, Allahu-Akbar!' Khaybar is destroyed, for whenever we approach a hostile nation to fight, then evil will be the morning for those who have been warned.' Then the inhabitants came out running on their roads. The Prophet had their men killed; their children and woman were taken as captives. Bukhari:V9B87N127 The Prophet said, I have been given the keys of eloquent speech and given victory with terror.' Ishaq:517 Khaybar was stormed by the Apostle's squadron, fully armed, powerful and strong. It brought certain humiliation with Muslim men in its midst. We attacked and they met their doom. Muhammad conquered the Jews in fighting that day as they opened their eyes to our dust. Tabari VIII:116/Ishaq:511 So Muhammad began seizing their herds and their property bit by bit. He conquered home by home. Bukhari:V5B59N512 The Prophet had their men killed, their children and woman taken captive. Tabari VIII:129 After the Messenger had finished with the Khaybar Jews, Allah cast terror into the hearts of the Jews in Fadak. Qur'an 33:26 Allah made the Jews leave their homes by terrorizing them so that you killed some and made many captive. And He made you inherit their lands, their homes, and their wealth. He gave you a country you had not traversed before. Qur'an 59:2 It was Allah who drove the People of the Book from their homes and into exile. They refused to believe and imagined that their strongholds would protect them against Allah. But Allah came at them from where they did not suspect, and filled their hearts with terror. Their homes were destroyed. So learn a lesson, O men who have eyes. This is My warning
they shall taste the torment of Fire. Qur'an 33:60 If the Hypocrites stir up sedition, if the agitators in the City do not desist, We shall urge you to go against them and set you over them. Then they will not be able to stay as your neighbors. They shall have a curse on them. Whenever they are found, they shall be seized and slain without mercya fierce slaughtermurdered, a horrible murdering. Bukhari:V4B52N256 The Prophet passed by and was asked whether it was permissible to attack infidels at night with the probability of exposing their women and children to danger. The Prophet replied, Their women and children are from them.' Ishaq:576 Allah and His servant overwhelmed every coward. Allah honored us and made our religion victorious. We were glorified and destroyed them all. Allah humiliated them in the worship of Satan. By what our Apostle recites from the Book and by our swift horses, I liked the punishment the infidels received. Killing them was sweeter than drink. We galloped among them panting for the spoil. With our loud-voiced army, the Apostle's squadron advanced into the fray. Ishaq:580 Our strong warriors obey his orders to the letter. By us Allah's religion is undeniably strong. You would think when our horses gallop with bits in their mouths that the sounds of demons are among them. The day we trod down the unbelievers there was no deviation or turning from the Apostle's order. During the battle the people heard our exhortations to fight and the smashing of skulls by swords that sent heads flying. We severed necks with a warrior's blow. Often we have left the slain cut to pieces and a widow crying alas over her mutilated husband. 'Tis Allah, not man we seek to please. Tabari IX:69 He who believes in Allah and His Messenger has protected his life and possessions from us. As for those who disbelieve, we will fight them forever in the Cause of Allah. Killing them is a small matter to us. Bukhari:V5B59N516 When Allah's Apostle fought or raided people we raised our voices saying, Allahu-Akbar! Allahu-Akbar! None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.'
Islam is a declaration of war against all mankind. If we continue to tolerate it, we will die as a result of it. Here's proof: Ishaq:208 When Allah gave permission to his Apostle to fight, the second Aqaba contained conditions involving war which were not in the first act of submission. Now we bound themselves to war against all mankind for Allah and His Apostle. He promised us a reward in Paradise for faithful service. We pledged ourselves to war in complete obedience to Muhammad no matter how evil the circumstances. Ishaq:472 Muhammad's Companions are the best in war. Qur'an 8:7 Allah wished to confirm the truth by His words: Wipe the infidels out to the last.' Qur'an 8:15 Believers, when you meet unbelieving infidels in battle while you are marching for war, never turn your backs to them. If any turns his back on such a day, unless it be in a stratagem of war, a maneuver to rally his side, he draws on himself the wrath of Allah, and his abode is Hell, an evil refuge! Qur'an 8:39 So, fight them till all opposition ends and the only religion is Islam. Qur'an 8:45 O believers! When you meet an army, be firm, and think of Allah's Name much; that you may prosper. Qur'an 8:57 If you meet them in battle, inflict on them such a defeat as would be a lesson for those who come after them, that they may be warned. Qur'an 8:58 If you apprehend treachery from any group on the part of a people (with whom you have a treaty), retaliate by breaking off (relations) with them. The infidels should not think that they can bypass (the law or punishment of Allah). Surely they cannot get away. Qur'an 8:59 The infidels should not think that they can escape. Prepare against them whatever arms and weaponry you can muster so that you may terrorize them. They are your enemy and Allah's enemy. Qur'an 8:60 And make ready against the infidels all of the power you can, including steeds of war to threaten the enemy of Allah and your enemy. And whatever you spend in Allah's Cause shall be repaid unto you. Qur'an 8:60 Prepare against them whatever arms and cavalry you can muster that you may strike terror in the enemies of Allah, and others besides them. Whatever you spend in Allah's Cause will be repaid in full. Qur'an 8:71 He will give you mastery over them. Ishaq:204 Men, do you know what you are pledging yourselves to in swearing allegiance to this man?' Yes. In swearing allegiance to him we are pledging to wage war against all mankind.' Ishaq:471 We are steadfast trusting Him. We have a Prophet by whom we will conquer all men. Qur'an 4:77 Lord, why have You ordained fighting for us, why have You made war compulsory? Qur'an 4:71 Believers, take precautions and advance in detachments or go (on expeditions) together in one troop.' Ishaq:322 Allah said, Do not turn away from Muhammad when he is speaking to you. Do not contradict his orders. And do not be a hypocrite, one who pretends to be obedient to him and then disobeys him. Those who do so will receive My vengeance. You must respond to the Apostle when he summons you to war. Ishaq:544 Hassan incited the men, reciting: This is the time for war. Don't feel safe from us. Our swords will open the door to death.' Bukhari:V5B57N1 Allah's Apostle said, A time will come when a group of Muslims will wage a Holy War and it will be said, Is there anyone who has accompanied Allah's Apostle? They will say, Yes. And so victory will be bestowed on them.' Ishaq:574 In faith I do not fear the army of fate. He gave us the blood of their best men to drink when we led our army against them. We are a great army with a pungent smell. And we attack continuously, wherever our enemy is found.
According to the Qur'an and Hadith, Jihad is holy war, fighting and terror. There isn't a single Qur'an verse or reputable Hadith passage that suggest it is anything but brutish and vicious. Here are some examples: Qur'an 2:216 Jihad (holy fighting in Allah's Cause) is ordained for you (Muslims), though you dislike it. But it is possible that you dislike a thing which is good for you, and like a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knows, and you know not. Qur'an 4:95 Not equal are those believers who sit at home and receive no injurious hurt, and those who strive hard, fighting Jihad in Allah's Cause with their wealth and lives. Allah has granted a rank higher to those who strive hard, fighting Jihad with their wealth and bodies to those who sit. Allah prefers Jihadists who strive hard and fight above those who sit home. He has distinguished his fighters with a huge reward. Bukhari:V4B52N44 A man came to Allah's Apostle and said, Instruct me as to such a deed as equals Jihad in reward.' He replied, I do not find such a deed.' Bukhari:V1B2N25 Allah's Apostle was asked, What is the best deed?' He replied, To believe in Allah and His Apostle Muhammad.' The questioner then asked, What is the next best in goodness?' He replied, To participate in Jihad, religious fighting in Allah's Cause.' Qur'an 33:22 Among the Believers are men who have been true to their covenant with Allah and have gone out for Jihad (holy fighting). Some have completed their vow to extreme and have been martyred fighting and dying in His Cause, and some are waiting, prepared for death in battle. Bukhari:V4B53N412 Allah's Apostle said on the day of the conquest of Mecca, There is no migration now, only Jihad, holy battle. And when you are called for Jihad, you should come out at once.' Bukhari:V4B52N311 Allah's Apostle said, There is no migration after the Conquest of Mecca, but only Jihad. When you are called by the Muslim ruler for Jihad fighting, you should go forth immediately, responding to the call.' Muslim:C28B20N4631 I heard Muhammad say: I would not stay behind when a raid for Jihad was being mobilized unless it was going to be too hard on the believers. I love that I should be killed in Allah's Cause; then I should be brought back to life and be killed again.' Qur'an 47:4 So, when you clash with the unbelieving Infidels in battle (fighting Jihad in Allah's Cause), smite their necks until you overpower them, killing and wounding many of them. At length, when you have thoroughly subdued them, bind them firmly, making (them) captives. Thereafter either generosity or ransom (them based upon what benefits Islam) until the war lays down its burdens. Thus are you commanded by Allah to continue carrying out Jihad against the unbelieving infidels until they submit to Islam.
All good Muslims are militants. Here's why: Qur'an 8:72 Those who accepted Islam and left their homes to fight in Allah's Cause with their possessions and persons, and those who gave them shelter and aided them are your allies. You are only called to protect Muslims who fight. Qur'an 8:73 The infidels aid one another. Unless you do the same there will be anarchy in the land. Those who accepted Islam and left their homes to fight in Allah's Cause are good Muslims. Ishaq:406 Among us was Allah's Apostle whose command we obey. When he gives an order we do not examine it. The spirit descends on him from his Lord. We tell him about our wishes and our desires which is to obey him in all that he wants. Cast off fear of death and desire it. Be the one who barters his life. Take your swords and trust Allah. With a compact force holding lances and spears we plunged into a sea of men
. and all were made to get their fill of evil. We are men who see no blame in him who kills. Ishaq:414 If you kill us, the true religion is ours. And to be killed for the truth is to find favor with Allah. If you think that we are fools, know that the opinion of those who oppose Islam is misleading. We are men of war who get the utmost from it. We inflict painful punishment on those who oppose us
. If you insult Allah's Apostle, Allah will slay you. You are a cursed, rude fellow! You utter filth, and then throw it at the clean-robed, godly, and faithful One. Tabari VIII:153 I ask the Merciful One for a pardon and for a sword blow that makes a wide wound that shoots out foaming blood. For a deadly thrust by a thirsty sword, and a lance that pierces right through the guts and liver. People shall say, when they pass my grave, Allah guided you the right way, O warrior.'
Murder is mainstream Islam. Muhammad was a mass murderer and an assassin. Here are but a few examples from a bloody sea of butchery: Tabari IX:69 Killing disbelievers is a small matter to us. Tabari VIII:141 The battle cry of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah that night was: Kill! Kill! Kill!' Bukhari:V5B59N512 The Prophet had their men killed, their women and children taken captive. Ishaq:489 Do the bastards think that we are not their equal in fighting? We are men who think that there is no shame in killing. Qur'an 2:191 And kill them wherever you find and catch them. Drive them out from where they have turned you out; for Al-Fitnah (polytheism, disbelief, oppression) is worse than slaughter. Qur'an 33:60 If the Hypocrites stir up sedition, if the agitators in the city do not desist, We shall urge you to go against them and set you over them. Then they will not be able to stay as your neighbors. They shall have a curse on them. Whenever they are found, they shall be seized and slain without mercya fierce slaughtermurdered, a horrible murdering. Bukhari:V4B52N270 Allah's Messenger said, Who is ready to kill Ashraf? He has said injurious things about Allah and His Apostle.' Maslama got up saying, Would you like me to kill him?' The Prophet proclaimed, Yes.' Maslama said, Then allow me to lie so that I will be able to deceive him.' Muhammad said, You may do so.' Ishaq:368 Ka'b's body was left prostrate . After his fall, all of the Nadir Jews were brought low. Sword in hand we cut him down. By Muhammad's order we were sent secretly by night. Brother killing brother. We lured him to his death with guile . Traveling by night, bold as lions, we went into his home. We made him taste death with our deadly swords. We sought victory for the religion of the Prophet. Tabari VII:97/Ishaq:368 We carried Ka'b's head and brought it to Muhammad during the night. We saluted him as he stood praying and told him that we had slain Allah's enemy. When he came out to us we cast Ashraf's head before his feet. The Prophet praised Allah that the poet had been assassinated and complimented us on the good work we had done in Allah's Cause. Our attack upon Allah's enemy cast terror among the Jews, and there was no Jew in Medina who did not fear for his life.' Tabari VII:97 The morning after the murder of Ashraf, the Prophet declared, Kill any Jew who falls under your power.' Ishaq:369 Thereupon Mas'ud leapt upon Sunayna, one of the Jewish merchants with whom his family had social and commercial relations and killed him. The Muslim's brother complained, saying, Why did you kill him? You have much fat in you belly from his charity.' Mas'ud answered, By Allah, had Muhammad ordered me to murder you, my brother, I would have cut off your head.' Wherein the brother said, Any religion that can bring you to this is indeed wonderful!' Bukhari:V1B1N6 Just issue orders to kill every Jew in the country. Ishaq: 676 You obey a stranger who encourages you to murder for booty. You are greedy men. Is there no honor among you?' Upon hearing those lines Muhammad said, Will no one rid me of this woman?' Umayr, a zealous Muslim, decided to execute the Prophet's wishes. That very night he crept into the writer's home while she lay sleeping surrounded by her young children. There was one at her breast. Umayr removed the suckling babe and then plunged his sword into the poet. The next morning in the mosque, Muhammad, who was aware of the assassination, said, You have helped Allah and His Apostle.' Umayr said. She had five sons; should I feel guilty?' No,' the Prophet answered. Killing her was as meaningless as two goats butting heads.' Bukhari:V1B11N626 The Prophet said, No prayer is harder for the hypocrites than the Fajr. If they knew the reward they would come to (the mosque) even if they had to crawl. I decided to order a man to lead the prayer and then take a flame to burn all those who had not left their houses for the prayer, burning them alive inside their homes.' Tabari VIII:178/Ishaq:550 Muhammad ordered that certain men should be assassinated even if they were found behind the curtains of the Ka'aba. Among them was Abdallah bin Sa'd . The reason that Allah's Messenger ordered that he should be slain was because he had become a Muslim and used to write down Qur'an Revelation. Then he apostatized . Ishaq:597 When the Apostle returned to Medina after his raid on Ta'if, word spread that he had killed some of the men who had satirized and insulted him. The poets who were left spread in all directions.
Demonic and sadistic as it sounds, even torture was part of Muhammad's repertoire. He may have been the most evil man whoever lived. Qur'an 5:33 The punishment for those who wage war against Allah and His Prophet and make mischief in the land, is to murder them, crucify them, or cut off a hand and foot on opposite sides...their doom is dreadful. They will not escape the fire, suffering constantly. Tabari VIII:122/Ishaq:515 The Prophet gave orders concerning Kinanah to Zubayr, saying, Torture him until you root out and extract what he has. So Zubayr kindled a fire on Kinanah's chest, twirling it with his firestick until Kinanah was near death. Then the Messenger gave him to Maslamah, who beheaded him. Bukhari:V4B54N487 The Prophet said, The Hell Fire is 69 times hotter than ordinary worldly fires.' So someone said, Allah's Apostle, wouldn't this ordinary fire have been sufficient to torture the unbelievers?' Bukhari:V4B52N260 Ali burnt some and this news reached Ibn Abbas, who said, Had I been in his place I would not have burnt them, as the Prophet said, Don't punish with Allah's Punishment. No doubt, I would have killed them, for the Prophet said, If a Muslim discards his Islamic religion, kill him.' Qur'an 48:27 If the Muslims had not been there, We would have punished the unbelievers with a grievous torture. Qur'an 9:5 When the sacred forbidden months for fighting are past, fight and kill disbelievers wherever you find them, take them captive, torture them, and lie in wait and ambush them using every stratagem of war. Ishaq:550 The Muslims met them with their swords. They cut through many arms and skulls. Only confused cries and groans could be heard over our battle roars and snarling. Qur'an 5:37 The disbelievers will long to get out of the Fire, but never will they get out there from; and theirs will be an enduring torture. Tabari IX:6 The chief sheep tender sent out spies to obtain intelligence. But they came back with their joints dislocated. When he asked what had happened, they said, We saw white men on black horses. Before we could resist, we were struck as you see us now. Ishaq:595 The Apostle said, Get him away from me and cut off his tongue. Ishaq:312 Umar said to the Apostle, Let me pull out Suhayl's two front teeth. That way his tongue will stick out and he will never be able to speak against you again.' Ishaq:316 Following Badr, Muhammad sent a number of raiders with orders to capture some of the Meccans and burn them alive. Qur'an 8:12 Your Lord inspired the angels with the message: I will terrorize the unbelievers. Therefore smite them on their necks and every joint and incapacitate them. Strike off their heads and cut off each of their fingers and toes. Tabari VII:133/Ishaq:387 When Muhammad saw Hamzah he said, If Allah gives me victory over the Quraysh at any time, I shall mutilate thirty of their men!' When the Muslims saw the rage of the Prophet they said, By Allah, if we are victorious over them, we shall mutilate them in a way which no Arab has ever mutilated anybody. Tabari VIII:96 A raiding party led by Zayd set out against Umm in Ramadan. During it, Umm suffered a cruel death. Zyad tied her legs with rope and then tied her between two camels until they split her in two. She was a very old woman. Then they brought Umm's daughter and Abdallah to the Messenger. Umm's daughter belonged to Salamah who had captured her. Muhammad asked Salamah for her, and Salamah gave her to him.
Kidnapping, ransom, bribery, and the slave trade are as central to Islam as is piracy. They are glorified Islamic pursuits. Muhammad set the example: Qur'an 8:1 They question you about (windfalls taken as) spoils of war. Say: Booty is at the disposal of Allah and the Messenger; they belong to Us and are for Our benefit. So fear Allah, and adjust your way of thinking in this matter. Obey Allah and His Messenger.' Ishaq:510 We ask Thee for the booty of this town and its people. Forward in the name of Allah.' He used to say this of every town he raided. Ishaq:327 Allah said, A prophet must slaughter before collecting captives. A slaughtered enemy is driven from the land. Muhammad, you craved the desires of this world, its goods and the ransom captives would bring. But Allah desires killing them to manifest the religion.' Qur'an 48:19 He rewarded them with abundant spoils that they will capture. Allah has promised you much booty that you shall take, and He has made this easy for you. Qur'an 59:6 What Allah gave as booty to His Messenger He has taken away from them . For this you made no raid. Allah gives His Messenger Lordship over whomsoever He wills. Whatever booty Allah has given to His Messenger and taken away from the people of the townships, belongs to Allah and to His Messenger.... So take what the Messenger assigns to you, and deny yourselves that which he withholds from you. Ishaq:327 Allah made booty lawful and good. He used it to incite the Muslims to unity of purpose. So enjoy what you have captured. Tabari VII:64/Ishaq:307 The Messenger of Allah gave orders concerning the contents of the camp which the people had collected, and it was all brought together. Among the Muslims, however, there was a difference of opinion concerning it. Those who had collected it said, It is ours. Muhammad promised every man that he could keep the booty he took.' Those who were fighting said, If it had not been for us, you would not have taken it. We distracted the enemy from you so that you could take what you took.' Those who were guarding the Prophet for fear the enemy would attack him said, By Allah, you have no better right to it than we have. We wanted to kill the enemy when Allah gave us the opportunity and made them turn their backs, and we wanted to take property when there was no one to protect it; but we were afraid that the Meccans might attack the Prophet. We protected him so you have no better right to it than we have.' When we quarreled about the booty we became very bad tempered. So Allah removed it from us and handed it over to His Messenger. Bukhari:V5B59N512 The captives of Khaybar were divided among the Muslims. Then the Messenger began taking the homes and property that were closest to him. Tabari VIII:116/Ishaq:511 So Muhammad began seizing their herds and their property bit by bit. He conquered home by home. The Messenger took some of its people captive, including Safiyah and her two cousins. The Prophet chose Safiyah for himself. Ishaq:511 When Dihyah protested, wanting to keep Safiyah for himself, the Apostle traded for Safiyah by giving Dihyah her two cousins. The women of Khaybar were distributed among the Muslims. Tabari VIII:130 The Prophet conquered Khaybar by force after fighting. Khaybar was something that Allah gave as booty to His Messenger. He took one-fifth of it and divided the remainder among the Muslims. Bukhari V4B52N46 I heard Allah's Apostle saying, Allah guarantees that He will admit the Muslim fighter into Paradise if he is killed, otherwise He will return him to his home safely with rewards and booty.' Tabari VIII:12 When cities were conquered Muslims used to say, Conquer for yourselves whatever seems good to you because all treasures were given to Muhammad.' Tabari IX:3 Since the Hawazin and Thaqif had marched with their women, children, and flocks, Allah granted them as booty to His Messenger, who divided the spoils among those Quraysh who had recently embraced Islam. Tabari IX:13 Abu Talhah alone took the spoils of twenty men whom he had killed. Ishaq:571 I went up to a man and struck off his hand. He fell and I killed him while he was down. But I was too occupied with fighting to pay any more attention to him. So one of the Meccan Muslims passed by and stripped him. Then when the fighting was over and we had finished with the enemy, the Apostle said that anyone who had killed a foe could have his spoil. I told the Apostle that I had killed a man who was worth stripping but had been too busy killing others at the time to notice who had spoiled him. Abu Bakr said, To Allah's lions who fight for His religion go the spoils that come from their prey. Return the booty to the man who killed him.' The Apostle confirmed Abu Bakr's words. So I was given the property of the man whom I had killed. I sold it and bought a small palm grove with the money. It was the first property I ever owned. Ishaq:592 The Apostle held a large number of captives. There were 6,000 women and children prisoners. He had captured so many sheep and camels they could not be counted. Ishaq:594 Muhammad, divide the spoil and booty of camels and cattle among us.' They forced the Prophet up against a tree, and his robe was torn from him. Muhammad cried, Give me back my robe. If there had been more sheep I would have given you some. Tabari IX:31 Men, I do not have anything of your booty. Just filth. And that filth is what is being given to you. Ishaq:594 The Apostle gave gifts to those whose hearts were to be won over, notably the chiefs of the army, to win them and through them the people. Bukhari:V4B53N373 Allah's Apostle got property and war prisoners and gave them to some people to the exclusion of others. The latter seemed to be displeased by that. The Prophet said, I give to some people, lest they should deviate from Islam.' Bukhari:V4B53N374 The Prophet said, I give to the Quraysh so that they will desire Islam, for they are nearer to their life of Ignorance and it is not strong in their hearts.' Tabari IX:36/Ishaq:596 Prophet, this group of Ansar have a grudge against you for what you did with the booty and how you divided it among you own people.' Ansar, what is this talk I hear from you? What is the grudge you harbor against me? Do you think ill of me? Did I not come to you when you were erring and needy, and then made rich by Allah? Ishaq:596 Do you hold a grudge against me and are you mentally disturbed because of the worldly things by which I conciliate a people and win them over so that they will embrace Islam and become Muslims?
While CNN, NBC, CBS, FOX and ABC will all bring Muslims to their microphones to say that kidnapping, ransom, murder, beheadings, mutilations, hangings, terrorism, and burnings are not authorized by Islam, you know better. And our politicians will pound their chests and flap their lips, promising to find and punish the responsible parties all the while aiding and abetting the tyrants who manufacture the terrorists who kill us. It's little wonder our world is in such a mess. It's little wonder no one in the media or in our statehouses knows how to solve this problem. Ignorance comes at a high cost. If you would like to examine 3,000 more of these passages organized by topic, or if you'd like to see the entire collection of Islamic Hadith and Qur'an surahs presented chronologically and contextually, open Prophet of Doom and read it. It may save your nation and your life. 061804
Update 08/04/04: Memri.org has posted "A Letter by an Alleged Wife of a Martyr to the Wife of Paul Johnson" in which it celebrates the murder of the "infidel" Paul Johnson. While our media and politicians look elsewhere for the motives behind these barbaric acts, there is no confusion in the mind of the author of this letter. The motive is Islam -- and we are the infidels. The recent issue of Sawt al-Jihad ("Voice of Jihad"), which is identified with Al-Qa'ida, published an article titled "A Letter to the Wife of the Slain Pagan Paul Johnson from the Wife of One of the Martyrs." [1] This letter celebrates the murder of the American hostage Paul Johnson in Saudi Arabia. The anonymous letter is attributed to the wife of one of the terrorists killed by the Saudi Security forces. The following are excerpts from the letter: [2]
'The Blood of Your Husband is the Blood of a Dog because He is an Idolatrous Infidel' "I have heard that you appeared on television feigning innocence and wondering haughtily what was your husband's sin and what was his crime. I believe you are not ignorant of the fact that he was one of the greatest criminals indeed, although he is not considered that according to your standards, you infidels. For you call the criminal innocent and the innocent one, defending his rights criminal. Or else, what was the purpose of your husband's work with the Apache helicopters? Have you ever believed that these helicopters hover over Afghanistan, Palestine, and Iraq to shower flowers and sweets over the heads of our children there? Or do you know that they throw on them rockets and bombs in order to turn their streets and homes into ashes upon which their corpses become coal? Is his work above reproach, then? Or was he innocent, while he worked on this kind of airplane [sic]? "Do you know that my husband was killed before my eyes in his homeland? Do you know that those who killed him are security people trained to defend the imperialists and to frighten and kill the Muslim people of the country? When your husband was taken hostage, there was much talk and the world was shaken. However, these same people did not speak half as much when America, the so-called country of justice and liberty, has been detaining more than 600 Muslims in Cuba for the past three years. That is besides our prisoners in Iraq, Pakistan, the land of the Two Sacred Mosques [Saudi Arabia], Jordan, and other places. "You should know that our brethren whom you detain in your prisons and our brethren whom your husband used to burn with his helicopters are not alone. Rather, there are hearts pounding with love for them, just as you have demonstrated that you have loved your slain husband. Nay, we love them more than you can imagine because the blood of a Muslim is for us more precious than the Ka'ba , but the blood of your husband is the blood of a dog because he is an idolatrous infidel." 'The Corpse of Your Husband shall be followed by Mountains of Corpses' "Do you know that we have not done anything about the blood of Muslims and the blood of my husband that was shed for no reason. We are just getting started and the corpse of your husband shall be followed by mountains of corpses of his countrymen, until they leave the country of our Prophet, Allah's prayer and peace upon him, lowly and humiliated. How can you claim innocence for your husband, Allah's curse on him, while you have been hearing the warnings of the Mujahideen calling you to leave our country that is forbidden for you? You however shut your ears and went obstinately with your wrongdoing. This is your penalty. May you shed tears mixed with blood, just as we wept blood because of your airplanes and your troops. "When my husband was killed you certainly were not interested, nor did you know about it; and if you had known, you probably would have been pleased that he was killed before he reached your husband and his countrymen. However, I find solace in the fact that the Mujahideen were able to reach their target with precision, and they killed your husband by slaughtering him. By Allah, on that day I rejoiced a lot because the real terrorist was killed having been gorged with the blood of our Muslim children." 'We Hate You, Infidels, and We Loathe You to the Bone' "I don't know whether you know that we hate you, infidels, and we loathe you to the bone. How could we not, while you are given preference over us even in our own country? For a long time did one of our airplanes hover to search for your husband while he was held hostage? There was much talk even by people who pretend to be Muslim clerics about negotiating with the Mujahideen, in order to persuade them to set your husband free. But my husband, they prevented us from praying over him, even after his death, and they did not give us his pure body [for burial]. We rely only on Allah to [punish] those who wronged us for the purpose of pleasing your husband and his likes. None has uttered a word about my husband even though everybody knew my husband and attested to his righteousness. That was because of fear of their goddess, America. "Tell the government, which has appointed itself over us [i.e. the Saudi government], that what they do with our youth who are engaged in Jihad is good: If you kill them, you thereby send them to heaven in the shortest way, Allah willing; and if you let them stay alive, not having overcome them, that is fine for they will fight you and will force out the infidels form the land of Islam. "By the Mother of the Martyr" [3]
[1] It should be noted that whereas the headline states that the letter is by the wife of one of the martyrs and the phrase "my husband" occurs 6 times in the letter, at the end of the letter there is a byline stating, "by the martyr's mother." [2] Sawt al-Jihad, issue no. 21. [3] The following is a footnote appended at this point in the original: "This article reached us shortly after the slaying of Paul Marshal [sic], but its publication was delayed due to special circumstances."
