Ohio: Muslim Students Push for Islamic footbaths on campus

21

Imposing sharia on campus. Muslim students are pushing to install footbaths at the University of Toledo in Ohio.

Your taxpayer dollars made to work for Islamic supremacists. Pay attention to how the demand is couched. Muslim students are installing Islamic foot baths in this university school because foot-washing in sinks is  "disrespectful to non-Muslims." Yeah, ok.

Extra paper towel dispensers were installed, but "this still was not accommodating."

Muslim students push for ritual sinks on campus The Independent Collegian (hat tip Diane)

When Omar Subei would perform wudu, the Islamic cleansing ritual before praying, he often felt uncomfortable when other people would walk into a public bathroom on and see him putting his foot over the sink.

"You have to raise your foot and put it on the sink and as you're taking your foot off the sink, your leg is dripping water," Subei said, a senior majoring in biochemistry.

Wudu involves an individual washing their hands, feet and face before engaging in prayer. They must perform the ritual one of the five times they pray during the day.

Subei said Muslims felt this was disrespectful to non-Muslims and the watery mess left over on the sinks would leave a bad impression on how non-Muslims saw them.

To solve this, Subei and other Muslims have been looking to install a small sink that would allow them to perform wudu cleanly.

Legislation was passed by Student Government to install the new sinks on the third floor of the Student Union near the Muslim Prayer room Tuesday.

The legislation states that two small sinks with drains at the bottom would be installed in both the men and women's restrooms. It calls for construction during winter break with the sinks completed by spring 2011.

Student Government President Matt Rubin said he was working with Tom Trimble, former director of the Student Union, to install these sinks.

"We noticed that paper towels were always running out and still [are]," Rubin said regarding the bathrooms on the third floor of the Student Union.

An extra dispenser was installed, but Rubin said this still was not accommodating.

"We've been asking so many questions about it and trying to find out what to do. We worked with Tom Trimble last fall to try to find ways to do it but there wasn't enough money," Rubin said.

Subei is not sure how much the project costs, but said he is first trying to get the plan finalized before costs are calculated.

Subei said this is something Muslim students have been wanting for a long time.

I’m so sick of these demands & that is what they are no matter how they try to spin them. I guess I should go to a Mosque & demand a room with a Crucifix & Bibles so I can pray when I feel the urge.

Place a chair by the toilet and use the toilet for foot-bath.

Since when have muslimes been concerned about offending non-muslimes – what a load of crap, and of course the authorities have fallen for it!

Let me see if I’m clear about this: they have no qualms with Allahu Ackbar, suicide bombings, Sharia Law, Cultural jihad, antisemitism, convert or die rhetoric, and really how we think about that as they tell us to go to hell over it, but it’s messy watered up sinks (which they could clean up with a paper towel, but that would require them doing something sanitary for infidels) that they’re worried about soiling their reputation with infidels? These people are either completely stupid or insane.

There is something much more beneath what the eyes and ears can see and hear GOING ON HERE…School officials are involved with the leaders of radical islam somehow, someway, I just know it! I can’t prove it, but why else would they allow such accommodations to a religion that is insanely intolerant to Christianity and Judaism on many different levels! The religion of islam not only has a knack for refusing to stand up to the evils of terrorism but in great numbers is guilty of perpetuating incidents of terrorism! Enough is enough…if taxpayers, parents of students who attend this college, and concerned Americans on a whole don’t do something about this now, IT’S JUST GOING TO GET WORSE!!!

“They must perform the ritual one of the five times they pray during the day”.
……………………………………………………………………….
So since its only a one time a day requirement, this can be done in private at home before or after classes just as the prayers can.
Doesn’t the college understand that they are being suckered into imposing islam upon non-muslim students? This holds true for any college or business that allows islamic prayer and installs footbaths.

“An An extra dispenser was installed, but Rubin said this still was not accommodating.extra dispenser was installed, but Rubin said this still was not accommodating.”-from tjhe article
This is the MO: selfish demands, using the rationalization system known as Sharia, to make the selfishness and manipulation appear as disinterested “religious” principal. It’s bullshit flying under the cover of “religious” tolerance (as if Islam is tolerant of other religions-LOL).
The next thing folks will see will see will be th clergy (or a Fbrahim Hopper type) showing up with the hats and “religious” costumes that so intimidate the bourgeois “progressive.” Hats, face-masks, costumes-they all freeze the “progressive” mind.
We should all get Pamela hats, robes and face masks.

The Muslim rap is the same kind of supremacist delusion (treating beliefs as facts) as the KKK. The comparison between the KKK and Islam fits in terms of the supremacist delusions.

For a nasal clogging report on the true nature of Muslim attitudes towards cleanliness and hygiene may I suggest checking out columnist Diana West’s site. Put a clothespin on your nose and read her post titled “No spitting towards Mecca, part two.”

I notice the ACLU doesn’t seem to care and neither do the craven members of our MSM. The islamofascist bullshit artists like Jon Stuart, Colbert, BS O’Reilly, Anderson Cooper and Rachel Maddow. Can you imagine the shitstorm these same assholes would bring up if Christians were insisting on crucifixes in bathrooms?

Why don’t they build their own muslim student center right near the campus, just like the Baptists, Catholics, and other religious groups do in order to fulfill their religious obligation.
Better yet, THEY CAN GO TO THEIR DORM ROOM OR APARTMENT AND DO THEIR WUDU! No one would ever object to that.
No, instead they have chosen to do their wudu in a place that will be an imposition of islam onto everyone else. Everyone else will have to once again step aside for them. And they do it in such an apologetic way that if you aren’t careful, you’ll miss their real purpose.

That Toledo website also carries this story about one of those “interfaiths”
(aka muslim dawa session) in which a professor emeritus of Toledo University
indicates that he’s concerned the original koran was lost “through interpretation” and “language translation.” http://www.independentcollegian.com/interfaith-dialogue-examines-interpretation-of-scripture-1.2631203

Why does this have to be done on campus, let alone at expense to the taxpayer, whatsoever?
Where I went to school a number of denominations had houses/buildings just off campus that were Baptist, LDS, Catholic, etc. student centers. There’s got to be some Saudi cash knocking around out there that could be used for “House o’ Wudu” near the U. of T. campus!

Foot washing stations are already installed we call them urnals.
I am tired of having to coddle these pathtic people who come to America to get away from the despots only to bring their baggage with them.
