Islamic Groups Call For Jihad At Meeting Near Washington D.C.

26

The only thing surprising about this news story is that Newsweek is actually reporting on it.

It is, of course, not surprising that Newsweek only runs quotes from a spokesman for the Ahmadiyya community to speak and explain about Islam, even though the Ahmadis are not considered Muslims by large swaths of the Muslim world.

Qasim Rashid’s tiny sect, the Ahmadi community, is considered heretical and blasphemous by both Sunni and Shi’ite Muslims. Most devout Muslims have denounced Ahmadis as kaffirs or heretics, and mainstream Islam generally considers them to be non-Muslims. This is because the Ahmadiyya Community believes that Mirza Ghulam Ahmad is the Promised Messiah and that Muhammad was not the final prophet. Heresy! Ahmadis are persecuted, oppressed — even slaughtered.

Story continues below advertisement

The Ahmadis suffer persecution, oppression and slaughter at the hands of Muslims in so many Muslim countries because they attempted to reform/reinterpret jihad and Islam (claiming it to be “peaceful”). That’s bad enough. But the Ahmadis excoriate counter-jihadists such as me for my defense of their rights (here).

The fact is that these devout Muslims are calling for holy war on a sect that is, according to Islamic texts and teachings, heretical. Jihad dictates holy war against all who are not true Muslims.

Radical Islamic Groups Call For Jihad At Meeting Near Washington D.C.

Groups of Sunni Muslim extremists gathered in a Holiday Inn in northern Virginia over the weekend and called for followers to wage jihad, or holy war, against infidels.

The radical extremists didn’t call for violence against Jews or Christians, but instead used the so-called Final Prophet Conference to rage against another group of Muslims that, like most American-Muslims, doesn’t support violent jihad.

The Pakistani-American imams who led the event bashed the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, a religious movement founded in 19th-century India, according to one participant who attended the event. Among the main complaints was that Ahmadi Muslims criticize violence and forbid waging jihad against non-Muslim governments.

No worries, I am sure Harris Zafar, leader in the American Ahmadi community, will defend them and attack me (or my colleagues) instead.

“Because Islam is being attacked from all corners, we as Muslims should work together. But glory be to Allah, we have decided not to support anything [Ahmadi Muslims] say,” Mufti Shaza Hussain, an Imam in Virginia who addressed the participants, was quoted saying.

The conference organizers were Idara Dawat-O-Irshad and Khatme Nabuwwat Center, two Muslim groups registered as corporations in Virginia, just a short drive from the U.S. capital. The groups are working to export their extremist ideology and intolerance into the United States, critics say.

“Free speech doesn’t mean the freedom to promote violence. I see these people as worse than the Nazis marching in Charlottesville,” Qasim Rashid, a spokesperson for the Ahmadiyya Muslim community in the U.S., told Newsweek.

“Every group has extremists, whether they are Christians, Muslims, Jews, or Buddhists. I would like to see an environment where these radical ideologies are rooted out,” Rashid added, noting that it is “very concerning” that radical groups gathered in Virginia.

Rashid is lying ….. again. These devout Muslms are following Islam, to the letter. According to Islamic texts and teachings, it is Rashid who is the apostate because the Ahmadis believe Mirza Ghulam Ahmad is the Promised Messiah. 

Ahmadiyya Muslims say that groups like the ones in Virginia give Muslims a bad name at a time when the Trump administration is already demonizing many Muslims and painting them as extremists.

“These groups are influential in places like Pakistan, but I’d bet 99.9 percent of American Muslims reject these guys,” Rashid said.

Ahmadi Muslims believe that the Messiah has already arrived in the form of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, a reformer who lived in India in the 1800s. Ahmad aimed to reform Muslims whose concept of jihad had become too violent. In response, extremist clerics in countries like Pakistan have banned the Ahmadi Muslims, and members of the group can be fined or even face capital punishment in Pakistan.

Ahmadi Muslims say it is their message of peace that offends the hardline extremists most.

“In this battle of ideas, it is important for those standing up for peace and dialogue not to be silenced by fanatical groups,” Harris Zafar, author of Demystifying Islam and a member of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, told Newsweek.

“It is important for our fellow Americans to understand that the extremists are not fighting Christians. They are fighting all humanity — including Muslims who disagree with their fanaticism.”

Representatives of Idara Dawat-O-Irshad and the Khatme Nabuwwat Center did not respond to requests for comment.

Left/Liberal pro-jihadis will sell out the country to jihadis if they had their way. Just like the Leftists Pope who is now calling for more christian killing jihadi immigrants http://tinyurl.com/popeofwolves

It is like that old joke about two shrinks who worked in a mental institution. One passes the other in a hallway and says, “Good morning.” The other replies, “Good morning.” When he gets to the end of the hallway, he pauses and thinks to himself, “I wonder what he meant by that.”

I disagree with your use of the term elite as applied to the dregs of our society. Successful, they may be. Scum, they certainly are. Nothing elite about them. The man or woman who works their hind end off,everyday and the elderly ones we see, with their backs bowed from a lifetime of work…supporting the dregs. THEY are the elite. I once asked a politician, how many taxpayers it took to support him in the way he`d become accustomed. No answer. Perhaps the math was to hard.

“Ahmadiyya Muslims say that groups like the ones in Virginia give Muslims a bad name at a time when the Trump administration is already demonizing many Muslims and painting them as extremists”. Apparently these imam have not read the qur’an, as it calls for extreme violence against all non muslims. It is about time the real leaders of the Christian community, not the sell outs to islam that lame stream religion, declared a Crusade against islam, terrorize terrorists.

This has been “REMOVED” eight times but those censors, censorettes, and censor-its.

They must object to the reference to God and the Constitution.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On the subject of feral Church and State separation I am rereading Joseph Story’s works.
Senator, Congressman, Supreme Court Justice and an “indian” during the Boston Tea party event.
Note the spellings were common in his era.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wi
The real object of the First Amendment was, not to countenance, much less to advance Mahometanism, or Judaism, or infidelity, by prostrating Christianity; but to exclude all rivalry among Christian sects, and to prevent any national ecclesiastical establishment, which should give to an hierarchy the exclusive patronage of the national government. It thus cut off the means of religious persecution, (the vice and pest of former ages,) and of the subversion of the rights of conscience in matters of religion, which had been trampled upon almost from the days of the Apostles to the present age. The history of the parent country had afforded the most solemn warnings and melancholy instructions on this head; and even New England, the land of the persecuted puritans, as well as other colonies, where the Church of England had maintained its superiority, would furnish out a chapter, as full of the darkest bigotry and intolerance, as any, which should be found to disgrace the pages of foreign annals. Apostacy, heresy, and nonconformity had been standard crimes for public appeals, to kindle the flames of persecution, and apologize for the most atrocious triumphs over innocence and virtue.[30]
Thus, the whole power over the subject of religion is left exclusively to the state government, to be acted upon according to their own sense of justice, and the state constitutions; and the Catholic and the Protestant, the Calvinist and the Arminian, the Jew and the Infidel, may sit down at the common table of the national councils, without any inquisition into their faith, or mode of worship.[31]
On the Second Amendment:
The militia is the natural defence of a free country against sudden foreign invasions, domestic insurrections and domestic usurpations of power by rulers. It is against sound policy for a free people to keep up large military establishments and standing armies in time of peace both from the enormous expenses with which they are attended and the facile means which they afford to ambitious and unprincipled rulers to subvert the government or trample upon the rights of the people. The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered as the palladium of the liberties of a republic since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of rulers and will generally even if these are successful the first instance enable the people to resist and triumph over them. And yet though this truth would seem so clear and the importance of a well regulated militia would seem so undeniable it cannot be disguised that among the American people there is a growing indifference to any system of militia discipline and a disposition from a sense of its burthens to be rid of all regulations. How it is practicable to keep the people duly armed without some organization it is difficult to see. There is certainly no small danger that indifference may lead to disgust and disgust to contempt and thus gradually undermine all the protection intended by this clause of our national bill of rights.[

“Because Islam is being attacked from all corners”
Such as the Vatican?
What a joke.

“I’d bet 99.9 percent of American Muslims reject these guys” – Qasim Rashid.
Irrelevant. Islam is not defined by votes: the views of muslims are neither invited nor received, as made clear by AMJA, Assembly of Muslim Jurists of America, ruling:
“The muslim community possesses no power except to acknowledge and obey”.

The Ahmadi sect is NOT a peacerful and tolerant islamic group. It is true that they are being rejected by mainstream islam because they consider Mirzam Ghulam Ahmad the last prophet of islam, but their core values concerning western lifestyle, homosexuality, women’s rights, the rights of other relgions, blasphemy, jews etc, are even more reactionary and from the stone-age than those of mainstream islam. Girls must wear hijab even if they are only 3 or 5 years of age, boys and girls are not allowed to go to school and be taught together and women must leave the room when an unrelated man enters etc etc. And they are plotting the downfall of christianity in Europe by building excessively mosques and denigrating christianity According to them Jesus did not die on the cross but escaped to Kashmir where he lived and taught and then died of natural causes at a high age.
These people are poisoning the minds and hearts of young people even if they do not resort to terrorism. And what guarantee we have for that?
“islam is islam”, Recep Tayipp Erdogan, turkish president and islamic dictator.
“the consumption of pork makes people gay”, Mirzam Ghulam Ahmad
“islam will destroy christianity in Europe and all over the world, Jesus will come back and destroy all crosses
and pigs(!) and call everybody to islam”, Mirzam Ghulam Ahmad.
Does not sound very peaceful to me!

In Pakistain, a Nobel prize winning Amadhi had his gravestone vandalized to remove the word muslim so that it now says something like 1st Nobel Prize Winner instead of 1st Moslem Nobel Prize Winner.
In Canadastan, as reported right here on gellerreport.com, a publicly funded apartment building is run by Amadhis and they enforce a very tolerant and inclusive muslums only policy.
