Pope Francis: Equating Islam With Terrorism Is Wrong And A Lie

Stipulate for purpose of debate that the quote is accurate. The Dope declared equating Islam to terrorism is a lie and foolish. Right or wrong?
I first saw this at Bare Naked Islam and traced it through two newspapers to a third where I could not find the interview. Evidently CAIR believes it 'cuz they posted it on Facebook.

Pope Francis has said equating Islam to terrorism is "foolish" in an interview with an Italian local newspaper. "It might be coming out of many people's mouths, but this equation is a lie and it is foolish," Francis said in the interview published by L'Eco di Bergamo on Thursday,

The Dope is not just wrong, he is full of excrfement! The proof is in Islam's canonical texts.

Terrorism

Sanctified

[Emphasis added.]

3:151. We shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve, because they joined others in worship with Allâh, for which He had sent no authority; their abode will be the Fire and how evil is the abode of the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong­doers).

Commanded

8:12. (Remember) when your Lord inspired the angels, "Verily, I am with you, so keep firm those who have believed. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who have disbelieved, so strike them over the necks, and smite over all their fingers and toes."

8:57. So if you gain the mastery over them in war, punish them severely in order to disperse those who are behind them, so that they may learn a lesson.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir
So if you gain the mastery over them in war), if you defeat them and have victory over them in war,
(then disperse those who are behind them,) by severely punishing ﴿the captured people﴾ according to Ibn `Abbas, Al-Hasan Al-Basri, Ad-Dahhak, As-Suddi, `Ata' Al-Khurasani and Ibn `Uyaynah. This Ayah commands punishing them harshly and inflicting casualties on them. This way, other enemies, Arabs and non-Arabs, will be afraid and take a lesson from their end, (so that they may learn a lesson. ) As-Suddi commented, "They might be careful not to break treaties, so that they do not meet the same end.'' So if you gain the mastery over them in war), if you defeat them and have victory over them in war, (then disperse those who are behind them,) by severely punishing ﴿the captured people﴾ according to Ibn `Abbas, Al-Hasan Al-Basri, Ad-Dahhak, As-Suddi, `Ata' Al-Khurasani and Ibn `Uyaynah.

This way, other enemies, Arabs and non-Arabs, will be afraid and take a lesson from their end, (so that they may learn a lesson. ) As-Suddi commented, "They might be careful not to break treaties, so that they do not meet the same end.''

8:60. And make ready against them all you can of power, including steeds of war (tanks, planes, missiles, artillery, etc.) to threaten the enemy of Allâh and your enemy, and others besides whom, you may not know but whom Allâh does know. And whatever you shall spend in the Cause of Allâh shall be repaid unto you, and you shall not be treated unjustly.

Ibn Kathir :  to threaten), or to strike fear

    At first glance, 8.57 & 60 may appear innocent. Muslims are commanded to give harsh treatment to defeated victims to tach a lesson to those behind them.  That means terrify those they intend to attack next.  Ibn Kathir adds "will be afraid.

    Muslims are commanded to maximize military power  to threaten intended victims. Ibn Kathir adds "to strike fear". That is a clue for you.  Ibn Ishaq, Moe's biographer, has another clue for you found on page 326 of Guillaume's The Life Of Muhammad.

326                             The Life of Muhammad
Then God mentions the unbelievers and what they will meet when they die, and describes them, and tells His prophet about them until He says: 'If you come upon them in war, deal with them so forcibly as to terrify those who follow them, haply they may take warning/ i.e. make a severe example of them to those that come after, that haply  they may understand. 'And prepare what strength you can against them, and cavalry by which. you may strike terror into the enemy of God and your enemy' as far as His words, 'And whatever you spend in the way of God will be repaid to you: you will not be wronged,' i.e. you will not lose your reward with God in the next life and a rapid recompense in this world.

 

Terrorism Rewarded

    Allah  awards Brownie Points for acts of terrorism intended to injure or enrage us.  On Judgment Day, the Muslim will stand before Allah, who will weigh his sins against his righteous good deeds. The swing of the balance will decide his  eternal destiny.
Acts  to instill terror are credited to the terrorist as righteous good deeds.

9:120. It was not becoming of the people of Al-Madinah and the bedouins of the neighbourhood to remain behind Allâh's Messenger (Muhammad  when fighting in Allâh's Cause) and (it was not becoming of them) to prefer their own lives to his life. That is because they suffer neither thirst nor fatigue, nor hunger in the Cause of Allâh, nor they take any step to raise the anger of disbelievers nor inflict any injury upon an enemy but is written to their credit as a deed of righteousness. Surely, Allâh wastes not the reward of the Muhsinûn

Tafsir Ibn Kathir
nor they take any step to raise the anger of disbelievers), by strategies of war that would terrify their enemy (nor inflict), a defeat on the enemy,

Terrorism practiced

    Allah cast terror and Moe was made victorious with terror! Note the allusion to 8.57 in the last sentence of 59.2.!

33:26. And those of the people of the Scripture who backed them (the disbelievers) Allâh brought them down from their forts and cast terror into their hearts, (so that) a group (of them) you killed, and a group (of them) you made captives.

59:2. He it is Who drove out the disbelievers among the people of the Scripture (i.e. the Jews of the tribe of Banî An-Nadîr) from their homes at the first gathering. You did not think that they would get out. And they thought that their fortresses would defend them from Allâh! But Allâh's (Torment) reached them from a place whereof they expected it not, and He cast terror into their hearts, so that they destroyed their own dwellings with their own hands and the hands of the believers. Then take admonition, O you with eyes (to see).

Sahih Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 220:
 Narrated Abu Huraira:

    Allah's Apostle said, "I have been sent with the shortest expressions bearing the widest meanings, and I have been made victorious with terror (cast in the hearts of the enemy), and while I was sleeping, the keys of the treasures of the world were brought to me and put in my hand." Abu Huraira added: Allah's Apostle has left the world and now you, people, are bringing out those treasures (i.e. the Prophet did not benefit by them).

Islamic Law

    Turn back to 8.6o  and take note of the phrase "including steeds of war". Islamic law has another clue for you.  Hedaya, the fiqh of the Hanafi madhab,  tells us  the purpose  keeping steeds of war.  It's terror, Stupid!  On  pages 175 & 176 of the second volume, there is a discussion of allocation of  shares of plunder. The horseman gets a share for his horse, it makes no difference how many horses he has or what breed, Persian or Arabian.  The text is barely legible and ocr fails. I highlighted the pertinent sections.

Hedaya 2.175

Now read the last paragraph on page 176 for another clue. The act of setting out on a ghazwa inflicts terror on the infidels!

Hedaya 2.176

    Every Muslim must be an object of fear to infidels because he  is likely to attack them.  Hedaya  spills the beans in a discussion of which Muslims are authorized to issue writs of protection.  Once again, I have highlighted pertinent parts.

Hedaya 2.157

Strategy

    "The Quranic Concept Of War" a strategy manual used by the army of Pakistan, describes terror on page 59.

Terror struck into the hearts of the enemies is not only a means, it is the end in itself.  Once a condition of terror into the opponent's heart is obtained, hardly anything is left to be achieved.  It is the point where the means and the end meet and merge; it is the decision we wish to impose upon him.

Who will get a clue? Read the highlighted  clauses over and over until reality sinks in.

Moron: Radical Islam Is Not Islam!

"Radical Islam is not Islam."
.
The quote above is from a a French interview, quoted in a Gatestone post, click through and read the entire article. I decided to concentrate on one Moronic quote from  the President of France.

April 15. President Emmanuel Macron, in a two-and-a-half-hour television interview, said that radical Islam "is one of the greatest challenges facing our nation" and must be confronted by means of "a work of reconquest." He warned French citizens against "Islamophobia," which he claimed feeds on misconceptions about Islam: "Radical Islam is not Islam." Critics might disagree. Macron also said that Europe is facing an "unprecedented migration phenomenon that will last." Due to migration and demographics, he said, "Europe's destiny is tied to that of Africa."

It's Islam, Stupid!

    You need to get rid of it by ridding France of Muslims. Reconquer France, one Muslim at a time. Send them home!!! Secure your borders and keep them out!!

radical

    Radical means the root. The Qur'an is the root of Islam. It defines Islam, hadith & sira exemplify it and sharia codifies them.  Jihad, genocide & terror are not exceptional, they are normative. Moe preached and practiced them. I present links to previous posts instead of reinventing the wheel.

• https://www.scribd.com/doc/220586952/What-s-Wrong-With-Islam-Muslims
•  https://www.scribd.com/doc/212631107/Jihad-Defined-and-Exemplified-pUpdated
• https://www.scribd.com/doc/110516023/No-Justification-in-Islam-for-Terrorism-in-a-Pig-s-Anus

    Terrorizing infidels is not a novelty, the use of modern weapons is the noverlty. Moe would have used them if he had them.

Islamophobia

    Phobia denotes irrational fear. Fear and loathing of Muslims is entirely rational. Islamic law states that every Muslim must be an "object of fear" to Infidels on account of "his liability of attacking them".

misconceptions

• "Islam is a religion"
• "of peace"
• "Abrahamic"
• distorted
• perverted
• hijacked.
  

Moron!

•     "Radical Islam is not Islam."

• Qur'an
• hadith
• sira
• sharia
• not Islam?!
  
• And the Pope ain't Catholic, he's a damn Muslim, too. 🙄
  

    What the Hell is Islam if not what Moe preached and practiced?!

African destiny

    Africa has been ruined by tribalism and Islam. The Trumpism: "shit holes" fits.  Macrone & Merkle want to import that?!  Population replacement! Replace workers with welfare bums... who will pay the taxes to fund their salaries and the welfare state?!

Ramadamn!

Chump's Ramadan message could have been written by Obamination. It reflects a blend of stupidity, ignorance and amorality unworthy of a President. It disgusts me!

With the rising of tonight’s moon, I send my greetings and best wishes¹ to all Muslims observing Ramadan in the United States and around the world.

During the holy² month of Ramadan, Muslims commemorate the revelation of the Quran to the prophet Muhammad through fellowship and prayer.  Many observe this holy time by fasting, performing acts of charity, reciting prayers, and reading the Quran.

Ramadan is a time of self-reflection intended to deepen one’s spiritual growth and renew a sense of appreciation for the many blessings God³ provides.  In this spirit of thanksgiving and reflection, those observing Ramadan can strengthen our communities, help those in need, and serve as good examples for how to live a holy life⁴.

Ramadan reminds us of the richness Muslims add to the religious tapestry of American life⁵.  In the United States, we are all blessed to live under a Constitution that fosters religious liberty and respects religious practice⁶.  Our Constitution ensures Muslims can observe Ramadan in accordance with the dictates of conscience and unimpeded by government.  By doing so, the Constitution also furnishes varied opportunities for all Americans to deepen their understanding of the human soul⁷.

As so many people unite to celebrate Ramadan, Melania and I join in the hope for a blessed month.  Ramadan Mubarak.

    Chump should read Waqidi's Sira to learn about Ramadamn. So should you. Begin on page 220 with "45. ACCOUNT OF THE COMING OF THE REVELATION
TO THE APOSTLE OF ALLAH, MAY ALLAH BLESS HIM" and continue through page 222 to get a clue.

Greeting

    Muslims should be greeted with "As-Samu 'Alaika" or  "As-Samu 'alaikum wal-la'na "; with curses, not felicitations. Their mission is global conquest including our extermination.

     Does Chump imagine that ISIS & Al-Qaeda leaders and  jihadists are not celebrating Ramadan?

Holy

    It is not holy, it is evil. Ramadan is the month in which Moe began faking the Qur'an.

God

    Allah is not God!  Allah is Satan!

holy life

    Chump has no clue! What an ignorant fool!! Jihad is the best deed a Muslim can perform, the highest peak of Islam.  Those who perform it are preferred by Allah.

4:95. Not equal are those of the believers who sit (at home), except those who are disabled (by injury or are blind or lame, etc.), and those who strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allâh with their wealth and their lives. Allâh has preferred in grades those who strive hard and fight with their wealth and their lives above those who sit (at home). Unto each, Allâh has promised good (Paradise), but Allâh has preferred those who strive hard and fight, above those who sit (at home) by a huge reward;

4:96. Degrees of (higher) grades from Him, and Forgiveness and Mercy. And Allâh is Ever Oft­Forgiving, Most Merciful.

    Muslims who do not go to war are going to Hell.

9:38. O you who believe! What is the matter with you, that when you are asked to march forth in the Cause of Allâh (i.e. Jihâd) you cling heavily to the earth? Are you pleased with the life of this world rather than the Hereafter? But little is the enjoyment of the life of this world as compared with the Hereafter.

9:39. If you march not forth, He will punish you with a painful torment and will replace you by another people, and you cannot harm Him at all, and Allâh is Able to do all things.

religious tapestry

    Is there any better exemplar of meaningless Moronic rhetoric? Islam is not a religion, it is an Arab Mafia disguised as a religion; a perpetual war machine.

 Constitution

    The Free exercise Clause is for religions, not war machines! The practice of Isdamn requires emulation of Moe, who engaged in extortion, terrorism & genocide.

33:21. Indeed in the Messenger of Allâh (Muhammad ) you have a good example to follow for him who hopes in (the Meeting with) Allâh and the Last Day and remembers Allâh much.

    The accursed Abomination was an Isdamnic act of worship!! They are worshipping Allah when they shout "Allahu Akbar!".

"Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture, and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause and to defend Islam and Muslims. Therefore, killing you and fighting you, destroying you and terrorizing you, responding back to your attacks,are all
considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion. These actions are our offerings to God." Khalid Sheikh Mohammad http://online.wsj.com/public/resources/documents/gitmo20090310.pdf

Soul

    That sentence is another perfect examplar of meaningless, empty rhetoric!  Neither Isdamn nor the Constitution has anything to do with understanding the soul, which is a peculiar mystery, known only to God.

Defy The Law 🖕! Tell The Truth About Islam!!

Bare Naked Islam writes about a proposal in the British parliament to prescribe six years in prison for telling the truth about Islam. I thank God that my great grandfather had the wisdom to get out of Great Britain before it devolved into Great Shitin!!

    What follows in an enhancement of my comment on that post.

    Those who revolted against King George III recognized the fact that free speech and press are necessities.  We must be free to criticize bad ideas, proposals and rulers.  Freedom can not be maintained without free speech. They gave us the first amendment. 

    We must use our right of free expression; we must speak up for Europeans who lack the right of free speech.  Let us therefore resolve to curse and condemn Isldamn & 'slimes early & often.

    Death & damnation be upon those who will not live and let live! They are Allah's slaves, doing his will. I refer specifically to Surah Al-Anfal  8.39, 57, 60 & 67. Those command perpetual war terrorism & genocide. I refer to Surah At-Taubah 9.5, 14, 29, 38-39, 111, 120 & 123 which command perpetual war & terrorism.  I refer to Reliance Of The Traveller, book o, chapter 9 which codifies 8.39 & 9.29.

    I refer further to Risala Ch. 30.2(b) which confirms the dawah prerequisite to attack in Reliance o9.8. I refer further to Hedaya 2.144, also confirming the dawah prerequisite plus the ostensible purpose of Jihad and 145 which exposes it's real purpose: plunder.

    Because it will not live and let live but instead declares perpetual war, genocide and terrorism, I curse and condemn Isdamn and all who practice, protect, promote & propagate it.

    If anyone doubts that Isadamn is pure unmitigated evil, by design, let him open Sahih Bukhari volume 4 and read pages 108 & 140 followed by the 'book' of Khumus in the same volume which can be found at archive.org/.

    Raise high the impudent digit of contumacious defiance 🖕 !!! Please share this post to your social media and make good use of Disquis.

o9.8: The Objectives of Jihad

The caliph (o25) makes war upon Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians (N: provided he has first invited them to enter Islam in faith and practice, and if they will not, then invited them to enter the social order of Islam by paying the non-Muslim poll tax (jizya, def: o11.4) -which is the significance of their paying it, not the money itself-while remaining in their ancestral religions) (O: and the war continues) until they become Muslim or else pay the non-Muslim poll tax (O: in accordance with the word of Allah Most High,

"Fight those who do not believe in Allah and the Last Day and who forbid not what Allah and His messenger have forbidden-who do not practice the religion of truth, being of those who have been given the Book-until they pay the poll tax out of hand and are humbled" (Koran 9.29),

the time and place for which is before the final descent of Jesus (upon whom be peace).  After his final coming, nothing but Islam will be accepted from them, for taking the poll tax is only effective until Jesus' descent (upon him and our Prophet be peace), which is the divinely revealed law of Muhammad. The coming of Jesus does not entail a separate divinely revealed law, for he will rule by the law of Muhammad. As for the Prophet's saying (Allah bless him and give him peace),

"I am the last, there will be no prophet after me,"

this does not contradict the final coming of Jesus (upon whom be peace), since he will not rule according to the Evangel, but as a follower of our Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) ).

o9.9

The caliph fights all other peoples until they become Muslim (O: because they are not a people with a Book, nor honored as such, and are not permitted to settle with paying the poll tax (jizya) ) (n: though according to the Hanafi school, peoples of all other religions, even idol worshippers, are permitted to live under the protection of the Islamic state if they either become Muslim or agree to pay the poll tax, the sole exceptions to which are apostates from Islam and idol worshippers who are Arabs, neither of whom has any choice but becoming Muslim (al-Hidaya sharh Bidaya al-mubtadi' (y21), 6.48-49) ).

Islamic Violence: Denial Is Proof!

In late April, 250 Frenchmen signed a manifesto against antisemitism in which they demanded the "obsoleting" of violent Qur'an verses which call for the punishment and death of jews.;  I have extracted the pertinent sentence from a Google translation.

"Therefore, we ask that the verses of the Qur'an calling for the killing and punishment of Jews, Christians and unbelievers be obsoleted by theological authorities, as were the incoherencies of the Bible and the Catholic anti-Semite abolished by the Vatican. II, so that no believer can rely on a sacred text to commit a crime."

 It is evident that those Frenchmen do not understand Islam. The Qur'am declares itself perfected  and immutable. Only Moe could edit it and he died in 632. For the details of the impossibility of improving the Qur'an, see this pdf. 

    Now comes the Deputy to the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar University kvetching about the Manifesto, and, in so doing, exposing the evil of Moe's perpetual war machine known as Islam. He curses the signers of the Manifesto and spews al-Taqiyya about  Islam. His lies are so egregious that they must be pointed out in detail.
[Emphasis Added.]

"The people making these strange, perverse and unacceptable demands must correctly understand God Almighty's book," Shoman urged.

"If they rely on their misguided understanding they can go to hell with their wrong ideas," he added.

The manifesto published on Sunday in the Parisien newspaper blamed "Islamist radicalisation" for what it said was "quiet ethnic purging" in the Paris region, with abuse forcing Jewish families to move out.

The nearly 300 signatories, who include ex-president Nicolas Sarkozy and former prime minister Manuel Valls, called for Quranic verses that support the "murder and punishment of Jews, Christians and disbelievers" to be removed¹.

Shoman said the demands were "unjustified" and that the signatories had failed to understand the meaning of the Islamic holy book.

"The Quran does not contain any verses that command the killing of anyone that has not committed a crime that necessitates that, such as premeditated murder," the Sheikh said.²

"The Quran is not responsible for people misunderstanding its meaning" he added.

Al-Azhar is one of the most prestigious institutes of Sunni Islam in the world.

The manifesto has also sparked anger from French Muslims, who have said their religion was being unfairly "put on trial".

Tareq Oubrou, imam of the Grand Mosque of the southern city of the Bordeaux, pointed out that Islam was not the only religion whose ancient holy texts contain anachronistic passages.

"Any number of holy texts are violent, even the Gospel," Oubrou said.

Muslims believe that the Quran is the permanent word of God that was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad in the Arabic language.

Punishment & Murder

Punishment

    The Qur'an curses Jews & Christians  and promises  sending of someone to continually humiliate and torment  the Jews.

• 2:161 
• 9:30 
• 7:167
• 9:14
  

Murder

    The Qur'an commands "kill them wherever you find them" in the infamous verse of the sword, commands perpetual war against Jews & Christians and commands attacking the nearest disbelievers first. While it is extra-Qur'anic, there is the infamous genocide hadith informing Muslims that the gates of Paradise will not open to them until they exterminate the Jews.

• 9:5
  
• 9:29

• Sahih Bukhari 4.52.177

Crime

The big lie 

    "The Quran does not contain any verses that command the killing of anyone that has not committed a crime that necessitates that, such as premeditated murder,"
recall Slick Willy: "what the meaning of is is". Recall ayat al-Saif, cited and linked above "kill them wherever you find them", referring to pagans of Mekkah in particular.

The Crime

    Disbelief is the crime! Not believing in Allah is to war against Allah and his Messenger!  Anyone and everyone not a Muslim is subject to amputation, crucifixion, exile or execution on the grounds of disbelief alone!!!

• 5:33. The recompense of those who wage war against Allâh and His Messenger and do mischief in the land is only that they shall be killed or crucified or their hands and their feet be cut off on the opposite sides, or be exiled from the land. That is their disgrace in this world, and a great torment is theirs in the Hereafter.
• "Wage war' mentioned here means, oppose and contradict,
   and it includes disbelief," Tafsir Ibn Kathir

WAR

    Surah At-Taubah 9:29 commands Muslims to fight Jews & Christians. It does not contain, in text or context, any defensive element. The real purpose is mercenary. Islamic law requires Dawah as a condition precendent to attack. Would the Muslims waste time inviting attackers to Islam?

• 9:29. Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allâh, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allâh and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islâm) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.

• "This honorable Ayah was revealed with the order to fight the
  People of the Book, after the pagans were defeated, the people
  entered Allah's religion in large numbers, and the Arabian
  Peninsula was secured under the Muslims' control. Allah

  Scriptures, Jews and Christians, on the ninth year of Hijrah,
  and he prepared his army to fight the Romans and called the
  people to Jihad announcing his intent and destination." Tafsir Ibn Kathir
• "It is related from Ibn 'Abbas, Mujahid, qkrima, Sa'ld b. ]ubayr, Q;!tada,

  should be prevented from approaching the Sacred Mosque, whether in the
  pilgrimage or at other times, that Quraysh said they would be deprived of the
  commercial activity that took place during the pilgrimage, and that they would
  therefore suffer financial loss. And so God compensated them for that by ordering
  them to battle the people of the scriptures so that they either accepted Islam or
