Muslims in France condemn teacher’s killing near Paris Saudi Arabia leads Arab and Muslim world in condemning terrorist murder of French teacher Egypt’s Mufti Condemns Killing of French Teacher For Prophet Muhammed Caricatures The question is; why aren't western media reporting this? How did the teacher meet his killer? Edited October 18, 2020 by Opl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was politely asking if his faith wouldn't forbid to drink. His answer was breathtaking. " Allah can't see me drinking when I'm so high up in the sky." That's correct, innit? You may not learn about this from the media, but there is no dearth of sardonic humor among Islamic people. Of course, one must be very discrete about it. I used to work with this fellow who was an Indian Muslim, when independence came he became Pakistani. His favorite quip (well, he told it to me often enough) was that he could not eat pig because it was the holy animal for Muslims: you know, like the cow is holy to Hindus. Also, he was a drunk, which was somewhat sad. "The Christians are so close to God they can whisper their prayers, sometime even call him 'father'. We Muslims need loudspeakers." Believe it or not I got that one from a Malaysian newspaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In his course about free speech, the teacher has shown cartoons of ALL RELIGIONS; The teacher has been beheaded by someone who lived over 100km away....... The daughter of the man who called his fellow believers to protest and designated the teacher- in a video- didn't belong to the teacher's class The Great Pantin Mosque supported the call to protest and remove the teacher what's wrong?

I would assume any instruction to kill in this case, if any, came from an Islamist source; assume police investigation will uncover any organised attack.

However, there are statements in the hadith banning all imagery of living things, for example, from one of the most "reliable" hadith authors. Sunni Muslims are very strict about this; Shiites less so recently. Quote We were with Masruq at the house of Yasar bin Numair. Masruq saw pictures on his terrace and said, "I heard 'Abdullah saying that he heard the Prophet saying, "The people who will receive the severest punishment from Allah will be the picture makers.' " Sahih al-Bukhari 7:834 It's also not necessary for something to be in the Koran for it to be widely accepted by Muslims as religious duty. For example, khitan (male circumcision) is not mentioned in the Koran, nor is female genital mutilation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post polpott Posted October 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) The youth who committed this atrocity was inspired by a facebook group of parents who conducted a rather vile campaign against the teacher for showing their children a few cartoons. Incitement to commit an act of terrorism is a serious crime. Everyone in that facebook group should be arrested, charged and convicted. Out of respect for their culture they should be sentenced according to Sharia law and all should be publicly beheaded. I'm sure that France still has a few old guillotines tucked away somewhere.

This is SO much fun, eh? If being shrouded in black is so great, why don't Muslim men do it? The reality is that Muslim women are indoctrinated from birth and are, throughout their lives, the property of a man who can impose his will upon her. The French try to give Muslimas a freedom that should be their birthright - a fundamental human right - but which is completely unavailable to them under Sharia. The number of such women who would genuinely, as a free choice, free from indoctrination and repression, want to be shrouded like this in Islam is probably similar to the number of Christian nuns who dress similarly in the West, i.e. virtually nobody.
