The Interfaith Chrislam Scam..Part 2

      “Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faiths, but to become dominant. The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest                                 authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth.” – Omar Ahmad, co-founder and past president of the Council on American-Islamic Relations

This is the belief held by vast numbers of pious Islamists throughout the United States, but it is not something you will hear during interfaith gatherings. Instead, they will go to great lengths to promote the commonality and oneness of Christianity and Islam.

“The Common Word BetweenUs and You” delivered to the holiest of Catholics, Pope Francis, is what’s called dawa.   Dawa is the prosteisizing of Islam, or the invitation to join Islam. Dawa is an obligation that all “good Muslims” must perform, in the hopes non-believers will submit. In this phase Muslims are promoting their “peaceful” and compatible version of Islam to Catholics, (and other denominations as well) in the hopes other faith followers will embrace and even eventually consider Islam.  

The words in this document are important to understand, however In order to understand why this document is deceptive and a fraud, you must understand who many of the signatories are, the philosophy of the institution it was penned by and how it serves as dawa. Anytime a non-believer reads any part of the Koran, it is considered a victory.

Throughout this article we will be quoting from a document titled “The Methodology of Dawa” written and published in 1989 by SHAMIM A SIDDIQI, which is widely used to teach Muslims how and why Dawa should be used.

One of the first paragraphs in the “Common Word Between us and You” describes the Al Fatihah, the first chapter of the Koran and the prayer repeated by Muslims over a dozen times a day:

In the Name of God, the Infinitely Good, the All-Merciful. /

Praise be to God, the Lord of the worlds. /

The Infinitely Good, the All-Merciful. /

Owner of the Day of Judgement. / Thee we worship, and Thee we ask for help. /

Guide us upon the straight path. /

The path of those on whom is Thy Grace, not those who deserve anger nor those who are astray.

(Al-Fatihah, 1:1-7)

Those who deserve anger are the Jews, and those who are astray are Christians.

Ibn Kathir was a highly respected Muslim scholar (1301 CE – 1373 CE) credited with writing a commentary on the Koran that has been translated into several languages, including English.  This commentary titled “Tafsir al-Qur’an al-Adhim” is reported to be popular because it uses the hadiths (sayings of Muhammad) to help explain the Koran.  Ibn Kathir’s commentary explains the meaning of the last verse of the Al-Fatihah daily prayer that demeans and denounces Jews and Christians as follows:

“Not (the way) of those who earned Your anger, nor of those who went astray, meaning:

These two paths are the paths of the Christians and Jews, a fact that the believer should beware of so that he avoids them. The path of the believers is knowledge of the truth and abiding by it. In comparison, the Jews abandoned practicing the religion, while the Christians lost the true knowledge. This is why `anger’ descended upon the Jews, while being described as `led astray’ is more appropriate of the Christians. Those who know, but avoid implementing the truth, deserve the anger, unlike those who are ignorant. The Christians want to seek the true knowledge but are unable to find it because they did not seek it from its proper resources. This is why they were led astray. We should also mention that both the Christians and the Jews have earned the anger and are led astray, but the anger is one of the attributes more particular of the Jews.” Quran Surah (Sura) Fatihah Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Remember Muslims recite this prayer over 12-17 times a day, asking Allah not to be like Christians or Jews.

Do these excerpts align with their “Common Word”?

From the Noble Koran: Sura 98

The Interfaith Chrislam Scam..Part 1

This series of articles will be long, and detailed, to hopefully articulate how the “interfaith” movement has led to a dangerous marriage between two religions, one whose savior is dead, and one whose Savior is alive. While there are other faiths involved with the this movement, these articles will focus on the Catholic connection.

 In February 2019, the Catholic spiritual shepherd Pope Francis and Islamic Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayeb, the grand imam of Egypt’s Al-Azhar joined together to celebrate the Day of Human Fraternity. This celebration was based on the 2007 landmark alliance between the holiest Catholic and Muslim leaders spawned by a letter to the Pope titled “A Common Word Between Us and You”.

This letter was originally signed by 138 Muslim scholars and clerics from across the globe that came together historically to show the unification of all denominations of Islam. The final letter was presented at a conference held by the Royal Academy of The Royal Aal al-Bayt Institute for Islamic Thought in Jordan, with the theme “Love in the Quran”.

This document was the “common constitution” which would be the conversation openers for all interfaith gatherings to show that the teachings of the Koran and the Prophet were similar to the commandments in the Holy Bible, claiming despite their differences, both have the same edicts.

 The following information explains why interfaith is a dangerous, hypocritical relationship. Words in bold are important to remember, as we will connect the dots with them as we proceed in coming parts.

It all seems so innocent. Interfaith events continue to grow in churches and synagogues across America, with the idea Muslims, Christians, Catholics, and Jews could all be friends to co-exist despite extreme differences within doctrines and laws. 

 To begin, we start with the doctrine of Islam. Muslims believe there is only one god, Allah, who through the prophet Muhammad revealed the words of the Koran. The traditions and sayings of the prophet are contained in the Sunnah and the Hadiths, this making the trilogy of books most important to Muslims. In order for a Muslim to be “good”, they must imitate the life of their prophet Muhammed. In summary the early years of Muhammad described as his years in Mecca, he was peaceful and while he desired to convert others to Islam, he accepted those that practiced their own religions, which led to very small numbers of Muslims.

On his hijra (journey) to Yathrib (Medina), Muhammed began to reject the offer of peaceful co-existence. It was in Medina Islam became political and militarized, showing to others Islam was meant to dominate, not to be equal. Before his death, non-believers (infidels) were evicted or enslaved and converted under the threat of death if they did not.  Remember, In order for a Muslim to be “good”, they must imitate the life of their prophet Muhammed.

In stark contrast to Islam, The Christian Faith centers entirely on the person and work of Jesus Christ, and not just certain aspects of His life. Jesus rose from the dead – spiritually and physically.

Many religious leaders including Catholics have failed to study the context of what is written in the Koran between Muhammad’s Meccan life and his Medina one. Muslims utilize the practice of abrogation, and the use of Taqiyya (sacred deception).  Islam denies the principle of the Golden Rule: the belief all human beings are equal in value and should be treated the same. No where in the doctrine of Islam does Allah speak of love or compassion for kafirs (non-Muslims). However, there are over 109 verses regarding violence against them. Here are a few:

Quran (8:12) – “(Remember) when your Lord inspired the angels… “I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them”

Quran (8:39) – “And fight with them until there is no more fitna (disorder, unbelief) and religion is all for Allah”

Quran (9:5) – “So when the sacred months have passed away, then slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captive and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush, then if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, leave their way free to them.”

Read more passages on jihad here https://www.answering-islam.org/Quran/Themes/jihad_passages.html

Messages from the Hadith and Sira include more violence to non-believers:

Sahih Bukhari (52:177) – Allah’s Apostle said, “The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. “O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him.”

Sahih Muslim (1:33) – the Messenger of Allah said: I have been commanded to fight against people till they testify that there is no god but Allah, that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.

Understand these verses are never discussed due to abrogation, meaning the later verses in the Koran over power earlier verse. In other words, anything revealed to Muhammad chronologically later in the Koran abrogates or overrules anything that came earlier.

Abrogation is contained in three verses in the Koran: Sura 17:106  And (it is) a Qur’an which We have divided (into parts), in order that you might recite it to men at intervals. And We have revealed it by stages. (in 23 years).

Sura 16:101  101. And when We change a Verse [of the Qur’an, i.e. cancel (abrogate) its order] in place of another, and Allah knows the best of what He sends down, they (the disbelievers) say: “You (O Muhammad ) are but a Muftari! (forger, liar).” Nay, but most of them know not.

Sura 2:106  106. Whatever a Verse (revelation) do We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, We bring a better one or similar to it. Know you not that Allah is able to do all things?

During interfaith events, whenever a Muslims quotes a peaceful verse, it must be asked when it was revealed to Muhammad. In Mecca or Medina?

Taqiyya, or the art of deception (sacred deception) is a lie that advances Islam. In Islam, It is not considered a sin, but rather permissible. Renowned Islamic jurist, Imam Abu Hamid Ghazali defines this deception as “speaking is a means to achieve objectives..it is permissible and obligatory to lie if the goal is obligatory.

The question begs to be answered why would Catholic faith leaders want an interfaith dialogue with anyone that is allowed, and encouraged to lie and deceive? Lying and deception is in fact a sin to Catholics.
