Cultural Jihad: Mohammad’s birthday should be a national holiday: Imam

38

Imam Mohd Qayyoom has started a campaign to make April 26, the birthday of Muhammad, a national holiday. There is so much debate on what date would be appropriate, "because the Islamic calendar is lunar and Muslim holidays are never held at the same time in the Gregorian calendar," that clearly the most wise and appropriate date for such a national holiday would have to be September 11.

The imam promises "we’ll give the message of peace, we’ll give the message of interfaith harmony," just like, I suppose, non-Muslims enjoy now in Muslim countries. /sarc tag off

And anyway, a groundnreaking new book written by one of the world's leading scholars on Islam, Robert Spencer, makes the historic argument that Muhammad, in all likelihood, did not even exist.

If such an idea gets legs with our craven and spineless political tools, it is safe to say that "Muhammad Day" would become a day of mass demonstrations for freedom and against misogyny, honor killings, Jew-hatred,  gender apartheid, FGM, slavery, subjugation and sharia across the free world. Oh yes, that's what it will be.

Tell the truth About Muhammad: founder of the world's most intolerant religion.

Mohammad’s birthday should be holiday: Imam Times Ledger

Photo by Christina Santucci Jackson Heights Imam Mohd Qayyoom is beginning a campaign to make April 26, the birthday of the Prophet Mohammad, a national holiday.

A Jackson Heights imam has started a campaign to make April 26, the birthday of the Prophet Mohammad, a national holiday.

Mohd Qayyoom, head of the Muhammadi Community Center, at 37-46 72nd St., said he believes having a national celebration for the prophet’s birthday would enable the growing Muslim population in America to have an annual celebration and would foster a spirit of cooperation with those of other faiths.

“We’ll give the message of peace, we’ll give the message of interfaith harmony,” Qayyoom said.

Since the Islamic calendar is lunar, Muslim holidays are never held at the same time in the Gregorian calendar, which is solar-based. Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting, can be held in the summer one year but take place in the winter years later.

When the Prophet Mohammad’s birthday should be celebrated in the Islamic calendar differs depending on the denomination. Sunni Muslims observe the holiday on the 12th of the Islamic month Rabi’ al-awwal, while Shi’ites observe it on the 17th.

But the historical birthday of Mohammad is April 26, 570. Qayyoom said holding a national celebration on that day will allow American Muslims to celebrate at the same time every year.

“We want one day, an annual holiday like Christmas,” he said.

While Qayyoom plans to formally announce his campaign April 22 at the second planned Interfaith Harmony and World Peace event in Jackson Heights, he said he is already starting it. He said he has contacted Jackson Heights’ elected officials and plans to reach out to leaders of other faiths.

“Everywhere I’m talking, they’re welcoming it,” Qayyoom said.

One of Qayyoom’s primary focus has been fighting and speaking out against terrorism. He said if Muslims have a holiday when they can hold parades and games every year and their non-Muslim neighbors can celebrate, it can bring an understanding between the peoples.

“Prophet Muhammad said, ‘I am not the prophet of only Muslims. I am the prophet of all human beings,’” he said.

Qayyoom said he has planned for this campaign to be a long one, but he hopes it will give the Muslim population in America a voice.

Well of course it should.
Anyone who failed to see this coming was and is as blind as a bat.
Far too many of our leaders and followers alike profess the nobility of Islam, promote and practice supporting and fortifying it here and abroad.
Islam takes no second rank for long.

Not until we hammer out this First Amendment issue with Muslims. Until then, totally against a NATIONAL holiday for Muhammad.

This Moslem cleric is jumping the gun. Since the Moslem calander is lunar doesn’t it stand to reason that first the US would have to be Islamized before it could properly celebrate Mohammed’s birthday? Only then would we adopt the lunar calander. But if he wants this holiday before America’s salvation April 24th would be a more suitable day for it. Why? April 24th is the 114th day of the year corresponding to the number of books in the Koran-of course on Leap Year the 24th would be the 115th day in which case Mohammad Day would be moved back a day to the 23rd. Maybe I should have been an imam.

I suppose this idea will be a global one? If so, then I believe I am entitled to air my view, if it offends some, then tough. Any man who beds a 9 year old child, in my opinion, is a paed, so I find this whole idea very offensive.

Uh, yeah, and just how are they going to celebrate his birthday? Of course we know they won’t have parties with “Draw Muhammad” contests for the kiddies but maybe, in honor of their pedophile prophet, they will have parties with a bunch of kiddies and show child porn and then when they get bored with that they’ll riot and kill non-Muslims. I don’t know why anyone would object to that.

There’s one major problem with this idea — we honor people who have actually contributed in a significant way to the betterment of our country.
Not only has “mohammad” not contributed anything positive to our country, everything he stood for goes against our fundamental values as a society.
What will we do next? A national day for Al Capone? For David Duke? For Adolf Hitler? Because “mohammad” is all of these (and more) put together.

If we’re going to have a national holiday for muhamMAD, why not one for Hitler? After all the ideologies espoused by both have a lot in common — especially WRT rabid antisemitism. Yeah, let’s all celebrate the birthday of a mass-murdering, psychopathic, narcissistic, antisemitic pedophile! NOT.

MO AND HITLER HAVE SAME BIRTHDAY: APRIL 20th
Several years ago Mo’s birthday was April 20th across the Internet, but Muslims realized that was Hitler’s birthday also, so they’ve been scrubbing it. Funny, the Saudis don’t even allow birthdays, as un-Islamic. Normally, I’m not interested in strange coincidences, but this is just too appropo to not mention.
Here’s a MUSLIM site that hasn’t been scrubbed, showing April 20th as Mo’s B-day:

Let’s see. We celebrate Mohammed’s birthday while they ban bibles, churches and Christmas in several Islamic countries. I don’t see what could possibly be wrong with that??????????? NOT! Listen, Turkey has even blocked internet access to an American novel. See here. http://www.ethandunepublishing.com/press-room.html Why is democracy and liberty so one-sided with these guys?

“It” is NOT my prophet and never will be.
Muslims hate the fact that infidels have holidays. If you’ve noticed, they always plan their largest conferences for our special holidays, a sort of middle finger, you might say. It galls them no end that we have a major Christian holiday that honors Christ.
If this were to come to pass, I say we all “celebrate” it creatively, if you get my drift. But right now the mere thought of a holiday to honor a pedophile, rapist, murderer makes me want to vomit.
The world has lost it’s collective mind and unless they shake it off and open their eyes their children and their children’s children are doomed.

They just might want to reconsider.
It was recently discovered that it was actually a woman who “wrote their little book they cherish. They are worshiping the wrong person. The cleric that told this story is now in grave danger and, I suggest that he find refuge in Israel.
This amazing discovery was revealed yesterday after days of hard work pouring over copies of the original parchments that Muslims claim were written by Muhammad.
“I had heard of hidden messages that could be heard when a record [for those of you born after 1990 a record was round and played music – like a big CD] was played backwards so I decided to read the Koran backwards to see if there were any hidden messages in it – I was bored, what can I say? – and I was startled by what I found.”
Cleric Abba Dabadu showed this reporter the notes he had scribbled in the margins of the copies of the original Koran.
“The world was right! Muslims are a backward people but only because we’ve been reading the Koran backwards!” He pointed to one section. “See here, what we have always believed to be the end of the Koran is really the beginning. And here it clearly shows that the Koran, correction, the Narok, was not written by Muhammad as we originally thought but by a woman – A WOMAN – named Dammahum.”
So what does this mean for Islam?

In Islam it is forbidden to celebrate birthdays, such an idea is not Islamic. So to celebrate Mohammed’s (piss be upon him) birthday would be offensive to him.

I always thought that the national holiday for the comic book character of Islam and the atheist was already set up here in AMERICA , It falls on the same day every year and highly celebrated so put your heads in the dirt and give thanks to AMERICA for your special day is the 1st day in APRIL and everyone knows what it is called . GIVE UP ISLAM AND LOOK UP TO GOD INSTEAD OF LOOKING DOWN FOR SATAN.

ON HIS KNEES BECAUSE OF ISLUM, OLD MOO WON’T CARE WHAT YOU CELEBRATE, SATAN WILL
Well one thing is fer sure, old moo won’t care a whit. He is so busy on his knees playing the “horsey” to any rump riding ranger nearby in Hades all he worries about is exactly “how long IS eternity” while they are sawing away at him. islam is hate, filth, pedophilia, murder, rape, slavery and a sure way to kill your soul. Repent all mooslems. Forever in hell is a long long time.

The last thing Muhammed said before he died was to curse the Jews and Christians who refused to convert to his so-called religion.
Now explain to me how we are going to have interfaith harmony on that basis??

I have an idea – why don’t we declare the month of April Holocaust month? That way we can celebrate both the birth of Mohommed AND Hitler, two ideologies joined at the hip. Or perhaps we can just begin self-immolating beheading ourselves right now.
