Quran and Jihad

by
Amil Imani

We must closely examine the Quran, Islam’s inviolable, immutable charter, since it enjoys such a sanctified standing. Muslims believe that Allah himself writes the Quran. Allah handed down the book, piece by piece and chapter by chapter, to the Archangel Gabriel. Gabriel, in turn, whispered these words to Muhammad himself over some 23 years.

Muhammad could neither read nor write. Therefore, he had to find people who could write down what he called his revelations from Allah. Several of these katibs (scribes) wrote down the surahs (chapters), eventually making up the Quran.

The Quran commands the believer repeatedly– to make Jihad, and even the people of the book, Jews and Christians, are specifically targeted. Now, the only question remains the extent of the Muslim’s obedience to the Quran and the Sunna, the life examples of Muhammad. To be sure, many Muslims are not following the dictates of the Quran perfectly, as they should, since they consider it to be Allah’s literal immutable perfect words. Hence, what I’m saying is patently true and far from being patently false as you adjudicate. Furthermore, nowhere do I say the belief in shedding the blood of others automatically makes every Muslim get on a killing spree. Yet, the commandments of the Quran to the believers are clear and emphatic.

I am not speaking about those Muslims who are born in the religion. These individuals have not voluntarily chosen Islam as their faith and need not recite the Shahada. They are Muslims automatically by birth. They may or may not become diehard jihadists. I reference those who voluntarily become Muslims and take the oath of faith– the Shahada.

Deciding to join Islam means committing oneself to the creed and its goal. One cannot enter an order without adhering to its precepts and practices. It is absurd, for instance, for a person to voluntarily join the military while saying that he doesn’t believe in the military’s objective of killing the enemy. All these Muslims who are not rabid advocates of jihad are in clear violation of their creed. Even these people are complicit in the mayhem and murder acts of their co-religionists through financial support and other ways.

According to the cardinal rule of Islam, non-Muslims are kefirs (infidels). So, the kefirs are fair game to be maltreated, plundered, enslaved, and slaughtered. It just so happens that the followers of Muhammad, before even rasul-ul-allah (Messenger of Allah) was buried, started having disagreements among themselves about who was a real Muslim, who was a pretender, and who was actually a kefir. In no time at all, the house of Muhammad splintered into sects, sub-sects, and sub-sects and whatnot. And these “real and true” Muslims started treating other Muslims as they would treat the kefirs, in obedience to their sacred teachings of the Quran.

In short, each sect was a true Muslim and used any means to further the faithful Islam they held, often purging other denominations whenever they could.

Millions of “true Muslims” are ready to give their all in the service of jihad. Suicide volunteers, for instance, in the tens of thousands have registered in the Islamic Republic of Iran to commit mass murder. These believers vie with one another to discharge their religious duty. It is small comfort that a great many Muslims have not volunteered for the mass murder of kafir. Yet, there are enough life-in-hand believers to keep Islam living true to what it is– a belief in blood.

Does every Muslim follow the commands of the Quran? No, thank God. But as they become into communities and increase in numbers, they become more militant and less tolerant of that community’s laws and regulations. This religion’s “holy book” commands its followers to commit crimes antithetical to this country’s laws. In case you are not familiar with some of the condoned atrocities of Islam and Sharia law: are you aware that women are stoned to death for committing adultery and that gay men are hanged? Or that the genitals of little girls are mutilated to destroy their capacity for sexual pleasure and make them controllable and that children may be murdered in the name of family honor? Islam does not recognize the separation of mosque and state. Islamic republics are dominated by spiritual leaders who oversee their citizens’ strict adherence to Sharia.

In countries where Islamic enclaves and ghettos have emerged, such as France, Britain, and Germany, local mullahs enforce Sharia regardless of its conflict with national or state laws. Most Americans fail to understand that Sharia is the foundation of Islamic theocracy and totalitarianism. The establishment of global Sharia is the ultimate goal. The Quran is unequivocal in its directive to Muslims to establish an international Islamic state (caliphate), over which the Islamic messiah, or Mahdi, will rule, with Sharia as the only law of the land. Make no mistake that is the intent of influential Islamic elements in America.
