Here is a leading Muslim imam denouncing me, libeling me, defaming me because I am fighting for the human rights of Muslim girls. We are turning people away from the Jessica Mokdad Human Rights Conference and requests are still coming in fast and furious.
Here's a video of the imam of the Islamic Center of America, Dearborn, in his Friday English sermon, in which he warns his congregants of my impending visit. Here's the thing: no rabbi would ever get up in front of a congregation and badmouth someone like this. Ever. It's just completely, wholly different.
At minute 28:23, this "religious figure" wails that a bigot is coming to Dearborn on Sunday. "Bigot" "basher" who claims that I am doing this for money (as if there is a living in this ……) The imam warns of a "big conspiracy" against Muslims.
He goes on to lie about honor killing. This imam should be up there calling for the expunging of Islamic teaching of the sanctioned killing of offspring according to the Islamic "honor code." According to MEQ, 91% of the honor killings worldwide are Islamic.
*Below scan right is from one of the most important English-language sources for the content of Islamic law: Reliance of the Traveller: A Classic Manual of Islamic Sacred Law. It is certified by Al-Azhar University as a translation that "corresponds to the Arabic original and conforms to the practice and faith of the orthodox Sunni Community…"
In Book O, titled "Justice," in section 1, "Who is Subject to Retaliation for Injurious Crimes," section o1.1 reads, "Retaliation is obligatory … against anyone who kills a human being purely intentionally and without right…"
However, o1.2 clarifies (above) that "The following are not subject to retaliation" and then lists — after the lovely, egalitarian "Muslim for killing a non-Muslim" and "Jewish or Christian subject … for killing an apostate" — "(4) a father or mother (or their fathers or mothers) for killing their offspring, or offspring's offspring."
Jessica Mokdad was a 20-year-old Muslim woman in Warren, Michigan, who was brutally murdered in May 2011. Fox News Detroit reported: “Authorities say a Minnesota man killed his 20-year-old stepdaughter in Michigan because she left home and wasn't following Islam.” Jessica’s stepfather, a devout Muslim, tracked his stepdaughter over four states to murder her for bringing dishonor on her family.
We’ve named the Conference after her as part of our ongoing campaign to raise awareness and bring a stop to the phenomenon of Islamic honor killing. These girls have rights, too, they’re human beings, and yet they’re completely forgotten in our politically correct culture, in which speech that is offensive to Islam is increasingly forbidden. We’re standing for the human rights of girls like Jessica Mokdad.
AFDI tried to place ads on Detroit-area buses offering help to people wishing to leave Islam and threatened by their families. Detroit SMART Transit refused the ads, and we sued on free speech grounds. We won, and the ads were scheduled to run, but Detroit SMART still refused to run them – and the same week they were supposed to run, Jessica Mokdad was murdered. Perhaps if she had seen one of our ads, she would be alive today. This underscores the cowardice of Detroit-area officials and the need for this Conference in Dearborn. We welcome women seeking help and resources to escape dangerous and misogynist households.”

Thanks for referencing me Pamela. Do you know that there appear in ‘Reliance of the Traveler’ lines of Arabic text for which no English translation is provided? I’d love to know what those lines state. Also, the Imam in question, Imam Syed Hassan al-Qazwini, recently returned from Saudi Arabia, having led a group of his followers to ‘The Kingdom’ on Umrah (a sort of off-season mini-Hajj). Just prior to their departure, Imam Qazwini gave a Friday Jumah sermon in which he criticized the king of SA for abusing and killing the Shiite muslims of his kingdom. He openly called for the king to ‘shut up’, referring to the king’s hypocrisy in condemning the slaughter of Shiites in Syria, while indulging in the same maneuver in his own country. This was posted on USTREAM. He then picked himself up and sauntered onto the king’s turf (for Umrah). I assume that Qazwini stuck his neck way out by pulling this stunt. Definitely a ballsy guy.
praying for your safety and the safety of the conference as a whole. be bold and speak the truth, i pray that people will hear and that hearts and lives will be changed.
I’m always disgusted when muslimes play the victim while they or their brethren are busily slaughtering and persecuting people of other faiths all over the world or agitating for same.
I hope the Jessica Mokdad Human Rights Conference goes off w/o interference, but somehow I doubt it will.
Personally I can see a USA in which all criticism of islam is outlawed under the guise of hate speech and how such a law will be hailed by our corrupt politicians as some sort of victory for tolerance.
Pamela – You are SQUARELY over the target as you are getting a whole bunch of flak from muzzies like this guy.
They will never denounce the truth about Islam – violence, murder, bestiality, pedophila, necrophilia and all the rest of the abberant, psychotic behavior that is the “religion” to which they adhere.
True, Jews are always examine themselves to see if there is any shred of truth in the criticism; and as a result, always learning and working to correct errors.
This imam denies what everybody there already knows is true. I can’t imagine how the people process that blatant dishonesty. IOW, the truth doesn’t matter because they must defend themselves and their honor as Muslims. That’s got to be humiliating when the overwhelming evidence is against them.
See the extensive work by Phyllis Chesler, a scholar who has studied and written extensively on honor killing since 2004 : “Unlike Western domestic violence, honor killings are carefully planned by the victim’s own family of origin who have warned her, repeatedly, from childhood on, that they will kill her if she dishonors her family in any way: If she is even slightly disobedient; refuses to veil, veils improperly, rejects an arranged marriage, wants to leave a violent marriage, dresses in too Western a fashion. Worldwide, women are honor-murdered based on mere rumors of inappropriate behavior, for wanting to choose their own husbands, having infidel friends, choosing a non-Muslim friend or husband—or a non-Muslim God. It is rare for a domestically violent western father to routinely batter, stalk, patrol, and murder his own daughter or to be assisted in this gruesome task by his entire family.” http://www.phyllis-chesler.com/950/international-women-day-honor-killings
Heroic conference members, may all be blessed, especially the beloved Maven in chief.
This snivelling heap of rancid pig snot is NO match for Robert or Pamela,every time
bonehead opens his mouth, he puts his foot in it.
He can only get away with talking this drivel because his “Flock” are clearly mindless inbred sheep. Perhaps he needs to read his own “Book of hate” and then look
at what his followers are doing, ALL around the borders of islam, but hey, so what,
he can alays play the “Victim” card if found out, yet again.
Go get em, boys and girls, and good hunting.

I think I have seen this information here before and I must inquire, did SMART ever run those ads? If not, are they not in contempt of court?
Also, as an aside, did anyone else fail to get any audio from the “Islamic Center of America, Friday Prayer” video? I got no sound though I get the audio fine from the other videos on the home page. I’m using Firefox but not the latest version since that one doesn’t support some add-ons I rely on.
I am sure Pamela you care about Muslim girls so much it is what keeps you awake at nights! You care about them so much that your work is selflessly aimed at improving the lives of Muslim girls. I am sure you don’t have any other agenda!
Bbc, are you implying that Pamela has another agenda?
@bbc: EVERY ISSUE Pamela focuses on is IMPORTANT and as ,you, sarcastic TROLL that you are, well aware of,BUT,since you’re an ISLAMO-PANDERING LEFTY,you think you can come here and attempt,through sarcasm,to ALINSKYIZE Pamela.
NOT HERE!
btw,As a Female Human Being,who CARES about her fellow female human-beings,,as women,Pamela is the ONE person to STAND-UP and LEAD OTHERS to STAND-UP to the ILL-TREATMENT of women by SAVAGES.
Guess you’re “down with” that ABUSE of women,@bbc.
We all know, unless we are kidding ourselves, that what Pam is doing is not standing up for female muslims but to use atrocities committed against some muslim women as a club to beat Islam on the head. She could care less about the females involved. Of course i am against the abuse of any human being of any gender, race, sexual orientation, religion etc. Pam and her fellows use these women’s suffering to advance their islamophobic agenda – nothing more, nothing less.
Having read this and of course seeing the comments such as bbc’s ‘Pam and her fellows use these women’s suffering to advance islamophobic agenda- nothing more, nothing less, I was forced to donate my small share via jihadwatch.
If people are this numb as a boot, and dead from the neck up, as bbc demonstrates him her, itself, to be, then every little penny is needed to help them grow a brain, a heart and learn to use them.
time to quote Ibn Kathir and one one his famous commentaries: “…Paying Jizyah is a Sign of Kufr and Disgrace, Allah said,
(until they pay the Jizyah), if they do not choose to embrace Islam, (with willing submission), in defeat and subservience,
(and feel themselves subdued.), disgraced, humiliated and belittled. Therefore, Muslims are not allowed to honor the people of Dhimmah or elevate them above Muslims, for they are miserable, disgraced and humiliated. Muslim recorded from Abu Hurayrah that the Prophet said,
(Do not initiate the Salam to the Jews and Christians, and if you meet any of them in a road, force them to its narrowest alley.) ”
——-
Yessir, pamela must be making this up to create ‘Islamophobia’, unlike what Islam itself teaches since it’s creation- submit all others and you may kill those who do not submit, or pay the jizyah tax as above.
bbc you’re nuts! I am attending the conference tomorrow in support of the anti-jihad movement. There are a lot of things I’d rather be doing instead, but violent and supremacist practices of islam in this country–MY country–need to be addressed publicly in the heart of muslim America. It is long overdue.
@bbc
Ever heard of a strawman argument?
Islamophobia is a word coined by islamonazis to excuse the
atrocities they commit in the name of islam.
So ‘tard, are the Christians, Sikhs and Hindus being slaughtered, persecuted and
raped by muslime apes in Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nigeria, Iraq, Somalia and
Egypt guilty of islamophobia?
What a list of heroes. Too bad you all are needed. I’m certain there is a more entertaining way to live your lives. However you all have been chosen to fight the good fight and we, though sometimes silent, are behind you all 100%. Conviction is standing for what is right even when others don’t.
You see how the materialism took over Detroit area? It created a vacuum of morality and as someone famously said “Nature abhors a vacuum.” Filling in the vacuum of morality was Islam; its special appeal being total power and control all the while looking pious and self-righteious. Its continual whining and complaining has special appeal to a group of people in Detroit who enjoy gathering together in unions and PACs to whine and complain.
bbc Could you please listen to Nonie’s appeal for Islam to police itself? Where are its voices for the atrocities? Dead silence from Islam. I’m sick of the Islamaphobia rant. It does not work. First of all do you think for one minute that a culture that stared down German and Russia and Japan that we are afraid of little old Islam? You have to be joking! The absolute worst thing you can do if you are pro-Islam is to underestimate your enemy. LMAO!
The Muslim video has no sound. I don’t think it’s my computer. I just finished watching a movie on it.
Pamela you are a fantastic and amazing warrior. That’s quite the endorsement having that muhammadite so infuriated about you that he vents off at Friday prayers. His feeble brain is burning from a fire started by your words. I hope his head explodes.
May the Good Lord Bless you and Guide you and keep you and yours safe.
Pamela – I so wish I could be there tomorrow. You are carrying the torch right into the lion’s den. You got balls of steel, girlfriend! I know you and Robert and everyone there will do a fantastic job. You are TRUE patriots!
Who cares what a bbc thinks. Nazish Noorani a 27 year old mother was shot on the sidewalk last August after a Ramadon meal, she was pushing a stroller and walking with her husband. It turns out that the husband set this honor murder up. An accomplice, a Ms. Stevens was the shooter. Apparently there had been abuse in the marriage for a long time. Her husband was such a pig that he allowed this to take place while their little child was a witness. Sick in the head. Connection, Muslim men and dead wives and daughters. Houston I think we have a problem!
BBC, you think you are not naive and see through Pamela Geller, that you see her true motive.
But 1. think on, do not stop there. Ask: What made her the way she is? What made her so popular? 2. Isn’t she really on your side and in agreement with you? More at least than on the side of her opponents?
Or:
3. Don’t you realise you make the ad-hominem-logical fallacy. Meaning that by supposing and implying the messenger is bad you are justified to ignore the message. But while the messenger may be the worst, most prejudiced, stupidest, inhibited person, the message may still be valid? And you are for your conscience obliged to hear it out and consider it?
4. Don’t you realise most of us understood that you just attempted to negate the message of the “prosecutor” Pamela Geller by attacking her possible motives? And that you thereby avoided to give factual and logical arguments against her convincing ones?
The person who calls himself (or herself) BBC has chosen an appropriate title, for like the British Broadcasting Corporation this person is also showing a lack of interest in the facts.
The record of muslim atrocities is so vast it would take at least a dozen such conferences like the one recently held to list them all.
BBC is a leftwing tool who is defending a system that I am sure he/she knows nothing about.
When you can defend a system (Islam) that discriminates against women,religious and racial minorities,gays and anyone who dares to criticize it, that person has no idea what they are talking about and therefore should not be taken seriously.
Pam,
You may be a little harsh with this Imam. He didn’t lie. He did mention you were a female! 🙂
“Now, Pang…Pamela Geller, is another Terry Jones, except female”
Well, least he didnt lie about that. But you gotta love
“…and she talks about a woman who was mur…died mysteriously. We are not even sure of the facts…”
Are you kidding me? Wait, did Tellurye just catch a Radical Muslim in a obfuscation? Radical muslims NEVER questioned how she died. We said Honor Killing, they said “No, she was killed by her stepfather because he was obsessed with her, nothing to do with Islam”
NOW. TODAY.
“Oh, we don’t know how she died. The police say that the stepfather…”
No, clown, YOU said he killed her because he was secretly in love with her. Now, you claim he may be innocent?
Why the change? Since when did THAT become the question.
Just another sad tale of stealth jihad, even lying to their followers who may not be radical, to obfuscate, derail, and cover-up the truth.
Honor killings are not Islamic. They are murder pure and simple. What Pam is quoting is a centuries old opinion of a guy – any person from any faith could have an opinion on a subject but the fact is, it remains just that: an opinion. So the challenge for Pam and her fellow conspiracy theory peddlers is to find a quotation from the two authoritative sources of Islam: the Qur’an and the Hadith that says killing your children is allowed. On the contrary, during its founding Islam prohibited the killing alive of young girls by Arabs for fear that they may do something that will taint their honor. Qur’an 17:31 forbids killing your children for fear of poverty, describing killing children as a ‘grave sin’. So stop the conspiracy theory and quote from Islam’s two authoritative sources that honor killing is Islamic.
@ BBC. “islamophobia” is a false construct, to whip up unenlightened people of all backgrounds.The entire muslim world needs to be deprogrammed of this garbage. Some have already begun to do just that, God bless them, and you BBC need to do the same. Pull your head out of the sand BBC, if a muslim can do it, through sheer force of courage then you should do the same. Darkness can not tolerate the light, grow a set and step out into the light.
@BBC,
David Wood had an interesting discussion/debate on his website illustrating how honor killings are supported by the holey Quran, in the sense that killing one’s offspring is specifically NOT prohibited in islamic verses.
@kufar Dawgy,
Not sure if you read my comment but Qur’an 17:31 forbids the killing of one’s children which it says is a grave sin. Not sure David Wood knows what he is talking about.
While we are on the same subject, does the Bible (both the old and the new) specifically prohibit the killing of one’s offspring and if not, then David Wood’s argument against the Qur’an (which is not true as Q 17:31 attests to) would apply to the Bible as well.
@BBC. Yes, David Wood showed the intricate influence of Islam. Islam weighs principles against each other. There is the principle of not killing, you are right. But something else overrides that principle in some cases. And that is “when persons are guilty and spreading corruption in the land, it is better to kill them”. and it is allowed to, by the Al Azhar University’s Islamic reliance of the Traveller. Deny it all you want, the information is spreading.
Look, you are counting on ignorance. You are telling about principles of Islam, but those principles are conditional in Islam, not absolute, as you ignorantly or deceitfully imply.
Muslims are told that the command of not killing is only for “innocent” people. But it is easily found in and encouraged by Islam to consider a person “guilty” and then commands to punish the guilty and restore honour override this command of not killing.
But you don’t know or don’t tell the world about that. At least part of Islam says: When the girl is guilty, it becomes better to kill her than to let her live, shaming the family and spreading corruption in the land.
Muslims say that, Muslims believe that. You denying this in a world getting ever better informed about Islam will have less and less effect on what non-Muslims believe but all the more detrimental effect on your credibility and trustworthyness, in that you are either ignorant or deceitful.
Nice try @demsci.
Don’t come here with interpretations of people. Show evidence in the Qur’an or the sahih Hadith that allows parents to kill their children even on some conditions. Just write here. You know you cannot and you end up quoting someone’s opinion in the reliance of the traveler and claim that supersedes the two core sources of Islamic law and anything that contradicts those two is to be discarded.
Continue spreading your conspiracy theory but eventually the truth will prevail!
bbc – That’s bs and you know it. Don’t be a typical Islamic apologist. Saying that honor killings aren’t a part of Islam is like saying that terrorism by Muslims has nothing to do with “peaceful” Islam. There’s no conspiracy theory on anyone’s part. If you are a Muslim, you KNOW that honor is of paramount importance to a Muslim family, and a woman that even APPEARS to tarnish that honor, is dealt with very harshly. I’m very sure you know the words ‘Zina’ and ‘awrah’ and what they mean.
And if you haven’t read the following, then please do so. It’s an article published by one of your own: “I am very unhappy. Our way of life is under attack. And we are not fighting back. Deep down, we know that when a woman has disgraced her family, nothing will restore honor except by killing her. This is understood in Jordan, Syria, Yemen, Lebanon, Egypt, the Gaza strip and the West Bank. So why are we Arabs telling the Western press that honor killing is cultural, that it is not really part of Islam? Our way of life is based on maintaining our honor. And make no mistake about it: a woman does tarnish her family’s honor by engaging in pre-marital sex, or by getting herself raped, when she seeks divorce and when she marries against her family’s wishes. And keeping our women pure is a big part of our honor. So there’s no point saying horror killing isn’t really part of our religion. Honor and Islam are inextricably bound; they are what give our life meaning. A strong religion demands we choose to maintain our honor.”
And read this: Quran- 4:15 “If any of your women are guilty of lewdness, take the evidence of four (reliable) witness from amongst you against them; if they testify, confine them to houses until death do claim them. Or God ordain for them some (other) way.”
The truth IS coming out, bbc, and people everywhere have and are “swallowing the red pill” with regard to Islam and the danger that it poses to all of us. We get it. All the beheadings, amputations, stonings, acid attacks, mutilation of the genitals of females, other forms of misogyny that DOES include honor killings, polygamy, inbreeding, peophilia, bestiality, and necrophilia that is inherent in Islam – isn’t lost on anyone who has more than half a brain cell firing. Is there any other form of abberant behavior I’ve missed that’s part of the religion of pieces? People GET IT about Islam, bbc. And that’s a genie which is not going back into the bottle, I can assure you.
And by the way, there’s a dirty little secret that no one in the Islamic world wants to talk about. And that’s the rampant spread of HIV and AIDS. Want to wager a guess why that disease is spreading – and so quickly?
bbc, the truth IS prevailing.
this blog is a bunch of apeshit
none of this is true
poor pamela has nothing better to do then obsessive over muslims?
wow…get a life woman
btw, why is it that you look suspiciously middle eastern?
or arab?
Muslimes aren’t used to having to defend their faith logically ever. Because in ALL their islamofascist pigsties criticism of islam results in murder or imprisonment. Raja Petra, who is related to the Malyasian royal family, was arrested for ‘insulting Islam’ in Malaysia. I don’t know how his various “criminal” proceedings in Malaysia turned out, but I can’t imagine they turned out well for him or freedom of speech.
Great post from Kate! Thank you!
BBC. Look 10 years ahead. Do you really want to gamble that your challenge of finding proof in Quran and Hadith is not met and you are defeated? Why, David Wood already has done it, on Answeringmuslims.
Moreover, what is it with you Muslims or Islam-apologists to keep ignoring the implication of what you are saying by “this has nothing to do with Islam”, when you are so clearly contradicted by all those schools of jurisprudence-experts and by hundreds of millions of Muslims. And not just wby whom you call “Islamophobes”.
You implicitly admit that Islam’s holy texts are vaque, difficult to understand AND indeed misunderstood or misused by all those Muslims. If you would be consistent and honest you DISOWM them, you call them ignorant or evil in effect. You don’t respect THEM. This is your dilemma.
It’s ok to kill your children in Islam, even if they are INNOCENT, due to Quran 18:74-81 when an INNOCENT youth is killed by a traveling companion of Moses just FEARING the boy will grow up to “disappoint parents or show ungratefulness toward Allah”(as if THAT’s reason enough to kill ANYone)!
@Demsci
I would like to say that I would gamble every last bit of what I own and my life on that. Having actually memorized the Quran I know what is in it and what is not.
What you people have failed to do is look in your own scriptures…Do YOU really want to gamble that there is no unjust rulings within the Bible or Torah? or any other scripture?
NO you wouldn’t.
Why?
Cause it’s frickin’ there thats why.
Truth – I don’t see Christians and Jews sawing peoples’ heads off, blowing up men, women and children on a daily basis, and all the rest of the crap that goes on daily in the name of Islam. There have been 18,825 ISLAMIC terrorist attacks since 9/11 in the name of Islam. Not Christian terror attacks. Not Jewish terror attacks. ISLAMIC terror attacks, done by MUSLIMS, in the name of their ideology. (I can’t even call it a religion.)
Who in their right mind condones mass murder, beheadings, amputations, stonings, acid attacks, mutilation of the genitals of females, other forms of misogyny that DOES include honor killings, polygamy, incest, inbreeding, pedophilia, bestiality, and necrophilia as correct and proper behavior in a religion? The only religion that condones this abberant behavior is Islam. That IS the truth, and you know it.
Don’t be a typical Islamic apologist. Stand up, and demand an overhaul of your “religion!” Start a worldwide movement to make Islam into a TRUE religion of tolerance and peace, not violence and murder. Stand up against honor killings. Stand up against ALL the crap that IS Islam. Let the movement start with you!!!
