Who ever heard of such a thing?
Who has ever seen such things?
Is a country born in one day?
Is a nation brought forth all at once?
For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through
and not be born?” asks Adonai.
“Would I, who cause the birth,
shut the womb?” asks your God.
Isaiah 66:8-9

Syrian rebels fire 18 rockets/mortars
into Lebanon hitting Hezbollah stronghold

Yusuf al-Qaradawi
Sunni Muslim Cleric in Qatar

He denounced Assad's Alawite sect,
an offshoot of Shiite Islam,
as "more infidel than Christians and Jews"
and Shiite Muslim Hezbollah
as "the party of the devil."

5/21/13
Syria
Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Saddam Hussein 4/4/03
“Long live Iraq. Long live Palestine"
Hamas Leader Khaled Mash’al 3/06
“The liberation [of Palestine] will come
with the help of Allah, until it is attained
by the last soldier, woman, and child,
despite resistance by Israel and the United States….
Jerusalem will become Arab and Muslim again,
including all the places
holy to Islam and Christianity.”

Iranian President Ahmadinejad
“Wipe Israel off the map.“
"Iran believes that whoever is for humanity should also be for
eradicating the Zionist regime
as symbol of suppression and discrimination,"
Ahmadinejad on Monday said that Iranians and Muslim nations
worldwide should hold Qods rallies
and show their willingness to dispose of this
"infectious tumor and this regime full of rascality."
"Recognizing the Palestinian state is not the last goal.
It is only one step forward towards liberating
the whole of Palestine."
Al Qods Day – 8/11

“This battle is not between
al-Qaeda and the U.S.,
this is a battle of Muslims
against the global Crusaders.”
Osama bin Laden
1993

Letter to the American People
allegedly written
by Osama bin Laden – 12/02
"The creation and continuation of Israel is one of
the greatest crimes, and you [the Americans]
are the leaders of its criminals.There is no need
to explain and prove the degree of American
support for Israel. The creation of Israel is a
crime which must be erased.
Each and every person whose hands have become
polluted in the contribution toward this crime
must pay its price, and pay for it heavily."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

April 2011

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation
spurred young Arabs to search for dramatic remedies

Eighth-graders are taught that,
"It is known that the Jews of today do not have
any connection to Palestine…”

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

Knesset Member Ibrahim Abdullah Sarsur,
who heads the southern Islamic Movement
inside Israel, published an official
announcement Sunday according to which
a nation he called the “Arab Jebusites”
founded the city of Jerusalem –
which he referred to using the Arabic name
Al Quds – a long time before the Jews
showed up there.

Land of the Israelites (Koran)
5: 20-21 – Bear in mind the words of Moses to his

people. He said, 'Remember, my people, the favors which
Allah has bestowed upon you. He has raised up Prophets
among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

17: 104 - And thereafter We said to the Children of
Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

Koran Stories of Abraham (no Abram)
3: 67 – “neither a Jew nor Christian” (first true Muslim)
6: 74-75 – “(And remember) when Abraham said to
his father Azar: 'Will you take idols for gods, surely I
see you and your people are in clear error.'
And so We showed Abraham the kingdom of the
heavens and the earth, so that he might be of those who
are certain.”

King Antiochus set up The Awful Horror
on the altar of the Temple, and pagan altars
were built in the towns throughout Judea.
55 Pagan sacrifices were offered in front of
houses and in the streets.
56 Any books of the Law which were found
were torn up and burned,

1 Maccabees 1: 54-59
57 and anyone who was caught with a copy
of the sacred books or who obeyed the Law
was put to death by order of the king.
58 Month after month these wicked people
used their power against the Israelites
caught in the towns.
59 On the twenty-fifth of the month, these
same evil people offered sacrifices on the
pagan altar erected on top of the altar
in the Temple.

Accordingly, in the fifteenth year of his reign,
Herod rebuilt the temple, and encompassed
a piece of land about it with a wall,
which land was twice as large as that before enclosed.
The expenses he laid out upon it were vastly large also,
and the riches about it were unspeakable.
A sign of which you have in the great cloisters
that were erected about the temple,
and the citadel which was on its north side. (Josephus)

Islam - surrender to Allah
Allah – the one true god, god of Abraham
Muslim (Moslem) – one who surrenders
Muhammad (Mohammed)– prophet (last)
to which the Muslim holy book,
the Koran (Qu’ran) was revealed
(as a ‘final’ revelation) by Allah,
through the angel Gabriel

Muhammad’s Encounter
with the Angel Gabriel
Terror, trembling, unable to rationalize,
possessed with an evil spirit, suicidal
thoughts, vice-like embrace, squeezed out
words, traumatized
“Unable to rationalize the ordeal he had just
experienced, Muhammad concluded that he was
possessed with an evil spirit and was thinking
of committing suicide.”
Islamic Imperialism – A History (Efraim Karsh 2007)

Islamic Terminology (610 A.D.)
Prophets – Muhammad, last & greatest –
the “seal” of the prophets - others:
Abraham, Isaac, Ishmael, Noah, Moses,
David, Isaiah, John the Baptist, Jesus
Hadith – deeds & sayings of Muhammad

Volume 2, Book 13, Number 21:
Narrated Abu Huraira through different narrators
that the Prophet said, "It is Allah's right on every
Muslim that he should take a bath (at least) once
in seven days.“
Book 41, Number 4828:
Narrated AbuSa'id al-Khudri:
When the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him)
sat, he had his knees drawn up supported by his
hands.

Book 37, Number 4310:
Narrated AbuHurayrah:
The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: There is no
prophet between me and him, that is, Jesus
(peace_be_upon_him). He will descend (to the earth).
When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

Islamic Terminology (610 A.D.)

3rd Holiest Site

Inner Face: South Wall - In the name of Allah the Merciful the
Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

Mutazilites vs Asharites

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”
Good & evil are foreordained
(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory
under the scientist’s lens,
while we in the Muslim world lag behind
because we have come from
a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

“Under the
Ottoman empire of the Turks,
the policy of disfoliation continued;
the hillsides were denuded
of trees and the valleys
robbed of their topsoil.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

I will scatter you
– but I will gather you
And while you are away,
the land will be desolate;

Had the Jews lost the war, their territory
would not have been handed over to the
Palestinian Arabs. Rather, it would have
been divided among the invading
Arab forces, for the simple reason that none
of the region’s Arab regimes viewed
Palestine as a distinct entity and most of
them had their own designs on this territory.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses

During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”

(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory
under the scientist’s lens,
while we in the Muslim world lag behind
because we have come from
a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

“Under the
Ottoman empire of the Turks,
the policy of disfoliation continued;
the hillsides were denuded

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

America is great because its people enjoy

There is not a solitary village throughout

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and

Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens

looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

recalled Dr. Abd al-Fattah al-Tarki,
a humanities student and a reserve officer
with the 2nd Armored Brigade.
“We were told to withdraw
to Bir al-Thamada, but we arrived
to find the positions there already in flames.
The army on the roads was in a state
of complete collapse. It was a massacre, a disaster.
Israel never would have achieved a quarter
of its victory if not for the confusion and chaos.”

Who has ever seen such things?
Is a country born in one day?
Is a nation brought forth all at once?
For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation

Eighth-graders are taught that,
"It is known that the Jews of today do not have

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,

as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?

the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights

before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.

seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: There is no
prophet between me and him, that is, Jesus
(peace_be_upon_him). He will descend (to the earth).
When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”

(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,

Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.

We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.

no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will

(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation

Eighth-graders are taught that,
"It is known that the Jews of today do not have

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of

upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,

and the necessity of man’s free will.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises

God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory
under the scientist’s lens,
while we in the Muslim world lag behind
because we have come from
a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

“Under the
Ottoman empire of the Turks,
the policy of disfoliation continued;
the hillsides were denuded
of trees and the valleys
robbed of their topsoil.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses

During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first

championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed

The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

America is great because its people enjoy

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

allegedly written
by Osama bin Laden – 12/02
"The creation and continuation of Israel is one of
the greatest crimes, and you [the Americans]
are the leaders of its criminals.There is no need
to explain and prove the degree of American
support for Israel. The creation of Israel is a
crime which must be erased.
Each and every person whose hands have become
polluted in the contribution toward this crime
must pay its price, and pay for it heavily."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation

Eighth-graders are taught that,

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

offspring, glory be to Him.

after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]

We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.

Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Had the Jews lost the war, their territory

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Eighth-graders are taught that,

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”

(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles

clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

“Under the
Ottoman empire of the Turks,
the policy of disfoliation continued;
the hillsides were denuded

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses

During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Land of the Israelites (Koran)
5: 20-21 – Bear in mind the words of Moses to his

people. He said, 'Remember, my people, the favors which
Allah has bestowed upon you. He has raised up Prophets
among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

17: 104 - And thereafter We said to the Children of
Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

are certain.”

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first

reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed

The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product

its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through
and not be born?” asks Adonai.
“Would I, who cause the birth,
shut the womb?” asks your God.

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will

offspring, glory be to Him.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

There is not a solitary village throughout

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Had the Jews lost the war, their territory
would not have been handed over to the
Palestinian Arabs. Rather, it would have
been divided among the invading
Arab forces, for the simple reason that none
of the region’s Arab regimes viewed
Palestine as a distinct entity and most of
them had their own designs on this territory.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses

During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Burial in Medina, 2nd holiest site
Beginning of Sunni vs Shiite

690 AD - Dome of the Rock

Al-Aqsa mosque

(Al Haram al Sharif – Noble Sanctuary)

3rd Holiest Site

Inner Face: South Wall - In the name of Allah the Merciful the
Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”
Good & evil are foreordained
(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory
under the scientist’s lens,
while we in the Muslim world lag behind
because we have come from
a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

“Under the
Ottoman empire of the Turks,
the policy of disfoliation continued;
the hillsides were denuded
of trees and the valleys
robbed of their topsoil.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

I will scatter you
– but I will gather you
And while you are away,
the land will be desolate;

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

PLO Charter - 1968
Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.

as required by reason;

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

Al Quds – a long time before the Jews

among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens

“We were told to withdraw
to Bir al-Thamada, but we arrived
to find the positions there already in flames.
The army on the roads was in a state
of complete collapse. It was a massacre, a disaster.
Israel never would have achieved a quarter
of its victory if not for the confusion and chaos.”

Who has ever seen such things?
Is a country born in one day?
Is a nation brought forth all at once?
For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through

“Would I, who cause the birth,

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.

as required by reason;

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”

(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

offspring, glory be to Him.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine

You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation
spurred young Arabs to search for dramatic remedies

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

He has given to no other nation.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will

(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,

strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Eighth-graders are taught that,

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

offspring, glory be to Him.

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first

championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed

The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

"The creation and continuation of Israel is one of
the greatest crimes, and you [the Americans]
are the leaders of its criminals.There is no need
to explain and prove the degree of American
support for Israel. The creation of Israel is a

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights

before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.

seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Hamas – (Arabic) = zeal

Hamas – Arabic = zeal
Hamas – Hebrew verb =
to treat violently
Chamas -Hebrew noun =

established order

PLO Charter - 1968
Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

1967 – Six Day War
The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

“Everyone lost their heads,”
recalled Dr. Abd al-Fattah al-Tarki,
a humanities student and a reserve officer
with the 2nd Armored Brigade.
“We were told to withdraw
to Bir al-Thamada, but we arrived
to find the positions there already in flames.
The army on the roads was in a state
of complete collapse. It was a massacre, a disaster.
Israel never would have achieved a quarter
of its victory if not for the confusion and chaos.”

Who has ever seen such things?
Is a country born in one day?
Is a nation brought forth all at once?
For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation
spurred young Arabs to search for dramatic remedies

Eighth-graders are taught that,
"It is known that the Jews of today do not have
any connection to Palestine…”

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

Knesset Member Ibrahim Abdullah Sarsur,
who heads the southern Islamic Movement
inside Israel, published an official
announcement Sunday according to which
a nation he called the “Arab Jebusites”
founded the city of Jerusalem –
which he referred to using the Arabic name
Al Quds – a long time before the Jews
showed up there.

5: 20-21 – Bear in mind the words of Moses to his

people. He said, 'Remember, my people, the favors which
Allah has bestowed upon you. He has raised up Prophets
among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

see you and your people are in clear error.'
And so We showed Abraham the kingdom of the

are certain.”

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:

(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

“Under the

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

During the last watch of the night the Lord

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Land of the Israelites (Koran)
5: 20-21 – Bear in mind the words of Moses to his

people. He said, 'Remember, my people, the favors which
Allah has bestowed upon you. He has raised up Prophets
among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

17: 104 - And thereafter We said to the Children of
Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

are certain.”

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first

the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed

The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product

There is not a solitary village throughout

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through
and not be born?” asks Adonai.
“Would I, who cause the birth,
shut the womb?” asks your God.

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will

offspring, glory be to Him.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

There is not a solitary village throughout

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Had the Jews lost the war, their territory
would not have been handed over to the
Palestinian Arabs. Rather, it would have
been divided among the invading
Arab forces, for the simple reason that none
of the region’s Arab regimes viewed
Palestine as a distinct entity and most of
them had their own designs on this territory.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses

During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

Burial in Medina, 2nd holiest site
Beginning of Sunni vs Shiite

690 AD - Dome of the Rock

Al-Aqsa mosque

(Al Haram al Sharif – Noble Sanctuary)

3rd Holiest Site

Inner Face: South Wall - In the name of Allah the Merciful the
Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”
Good & evil are foreordained
(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory
under the scientist’s lens,
while we in the Muslim world lag behind
because we have come from
a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

“Under the
Ottoman empire of the Turks,
the policy of disfoliation continued;
the hillsides were denuded
of trees and the valleys
robbed of their topsoil.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

I will scatter you
– but I will gather you
And while you are away,
the land will be desolate;

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

PLO Charter - 1968
Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

Al Quds – a long time before the Jews

among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens

“We were told to withdraw
to Bir al-Thamada, but we arrived
to find the positions there already in flames.
The army on the roads was in a state
of complete collapse. It was a massacre, a disaster.
Israel never would have achieved a quarter
of its victory if not for the confusion and chaos.”

Who has ever seen such things?
Is a country born in one day?
Is a nation brought forth all at once?
For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.

as required by reason;

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”

(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

offspring, glory be to Him.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine

five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation
spurred young Arabs to search for dramatic remedies

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

He has given to no other nation.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will

(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,

strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Eighth-graders are taught that,

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

offspring, glory be to Him.

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first

championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed

The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

"The creation and continuation of Israel is one of
the greatest crimes, and you [the Americans]
are the leaders of its criminals.There is no need
to explain and prove the degree of American
support for Israel. The creation of Israel is a

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights

before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.

seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Hamas – (Arabic) = zeal

Hamas – Arabic = zeal
Hamas – Hebrew verb =

Chamas -Hebrew noun =

established order

PLO Charter - 1968
Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

1967 – Six Day War
The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."
Exodus 14:23-25

“Everyone lost their heads,”
recalled Dr. Abd al-Fattah al-Tarki,
a humanities student and a reserve officer
with the 2nd Armored Brigade.
“We were told to withdraw
to Bir al-Thamada, but we arrived
to find the positions there already in flames.
The army on the roads was in a state
of complete collapse. It was a massacre, a disaster.
Israel never would have achieved a quarter
of its victory if not for the confusion and chaos.”

Who has ever seen such things?
Is a country born in one day?
Is a nation brought forth all at once?
For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation
spurred young Arabs to search for dramatic remedies

Eighth-graders are taught that,
"It is known that the Jews of today do not have
any connection to Palestine…”

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

Knesset Member Ibrahim Abdullah Sarsur,
who heads the southern Islamic Movement
inside Israel, published an official
announcement Sunday according to which
a nation he called the “Arab Jebusites”
founded the city of Jerusalem –
which he referred to using the Arabic name
Al Quds – a long time before the Jews
showed up there.

5: 20-21 – Bear in mind the words of Moses to his

people. He said, 'Remember, my people, the favors which
Allah has bestowed upon you. He has raised up Prophets
among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

17: 104 - And thereafter We said to the Children of
Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

see you and your people are in clear error.'
And so We showed Abraham the kingdom of the

are certain.”

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

“Under the

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

During the last watch of the night the Lord

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Land of the Israelites (Koran)
5: 20-21 – Bear in mind the words of Moses to his

people. He said, 'Remember, my people, the favors which
Allah has bestowed upon you. He has raised up Prophets
among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

17: 104 - And thereafter We said to the Children of
Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

are certain.”

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first

the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed

America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product

There is not a solitary village throughout

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through
and not be born?” asks Adonai.
“Would I, who cause the birth,
shut the womb?” asks your God.

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will

offspring, glory be to Him.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

There is not a solitary village throughout

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Had the Jews lost the war, their territory
would not have been handed over to the
Palestinian Arabs. Rather, it would have
been divided among the invading
Arab forces, for the simple reason that none
of the region’s Arab regimes viewed
Palestine as a distinct entity and most of
them had their own designs on this territory.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses

During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

Burial in Medina, 2nd holiest site
Beginning of Sunni vs Shiite

690 AD - Dome of the Rock

Al-Aqsa mosque

(Al Haram al Sharif – Noble Sanctuary)

3rd Holiest Site

Inner Face: South Wall - In the name of Allah the Merciful the
Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”
Good & evil are foreordained
(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory
under the scientist’s lens,
while we in the Muslim world lag behind
because we have come from
a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

“Under the
Ottoman empire of the Turks,
the policy of disfoliation continued;
the hillsides were denuded
of trees and the valleys
robbed of their topsoil.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

I will scatter you
– but I will gather you
And while you are away,
the land will be desolate;

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

PLO Charter - 1968
Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

Al Quds – a long time before the Jews

among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens

“We were told to withdraw
to Bir al-Thamada, but we arrived
to find the positions there already in flames.
The army on the roads was in a state
of complete collapse. It was a massacre, a disaster.
Israel never would have achieved a quarter
of its victory if not for the confusion and chaos.”

Who has ever seen such things?
Is a country born in one day?
Is a nation brought forth all at once?
For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through

“Would I, who cause the birth,

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.

as required by reason;

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights

When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”

(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

offspring, glory be to Him.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises

not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine

five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation
spurred young Arabs to search for dramatic remedies

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

He has given to no other nation.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will

(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,

strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Eighth-graders are taught that,

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

offspring, glory be to Him.

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first

championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed

The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

"The creation and continuation of Israel is one of
the greatest crimes, and you [the Americans]
are the leaders of its criminals.There is no need
to explain and prove the degree of American
support for Israel. The creation of Israel is a

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights

before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.

seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Hamas – (Arabic) = zeal

Hamas – Arabic = zeal
Hamas – Hebrew verb =

Chamas -Hebrew noun =

established order

PLO Charter - 1968
Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

1967 – Six Day War
The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

“Everyone lost their heads,”
recalled Dr. Abd al-Fattah al-Tarki,
a humanities student and a reserve officer
with the 2nd Armored Brigade.
“We were told to withdraw
to Bir al-Thamada, but we arrived
to find the positions there already in flames.
The army on the roads was in a state
of complete collapse. It was a massacre, a disaster.
Israel never would have achieved a quarter
of its victory if not for the confusion and chaos.”

Who has ever seen such things?
Is a country born in one day?
Is a nation brought forth all at once?
For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation
spurred young Arabs to search for dramatic remedies

Eighth-graders are taught that,
"It is known that the Jews of today do not have
any connection to Palestine…”

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

Knesset Member Ibrahim Abdullah Sarsur,
who heads the southern Islamic Movement
inside Israel, published an official
announcement Sunday according to which
a nation he called the “Arab Jebusites”
founded the city of Jerusalem –
which he referred to using the Arabic name
Al Quds – a long time before the Jews
showed up there.

5: 20-21 – Bear in mind the words of Moses to his

people. He said, 'Remember, my people, the favors which
Allah has bestowed upon you. He has raised up Prophets
among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

17: 104 - And thereafter We said to the Children of
Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

see you and your people are in clear error.'
And so We showed Abraham the kingdom of the

are certain.”

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:

(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

“Under the

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

During the last watch of the night the Lord

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Land of the Israelites (Koran)
5: 20-21 – Bear in mind the words of Moses to his

people. He said, 'Remember, my people, the favors which
Allah has bestowed upon you. He has raised up Prophets
among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

17: 104 - And thereafter We said to the Children of
Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

are certain.”

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first

the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed

The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product

There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through
and not be born?” asks Adonai.
“Would I, who cause the birth,
shut the womb?” asks your God.

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will

offspring, glory be to Him.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

There is not a solitary village throughout

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Had the Jews lost the war, their territory
would not have been handed over to the
Palestinian Arabs. Rather, it would have
been divided among the invading
Arab forces, for the simple reason that none
of the region’s Arab regimes viewed
Palestine as a distinct entity and most of
them had their own designs on this territory.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses

During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

Burial in Medina, 2nd holiest site
Beginning of Sunni vs Shiite

690 AD - Dome of the Rock

Al-Aqsa mosque

(Al Haram al Sharif – Noble Sanctuary)

3rd Holiest Site

Inner Face: South Wall - In the name of Allah the Merciful the
Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”
Good & evil are foreordained
(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory
under the scientist’s lens,
while we in the Muslim world lag behind
because we have come from
a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

“Under the
Ottoman empire of the Turks,
the policy of disfoliation continued;
the hillsides were denuded
of trees and the valleys
robbed of their topsoil.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

I will scatter you
– but I will gather you
And while you are away,
the land will be desolate;

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

PLO Charter - 1968
Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

Al Quds – a long time before the Jews

among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens

“We were told to withdraw
to Bir al-Thamada, but we arrived
to find the positions there already in flames.
The army on the roads was in a state
of complete collapse. It was a massacre, a disaster.
Israel never would have achieved a quarter
of its victory if not for the confusion and chaos.”

Who has ever seen such things?
Is a country born in one day?
Is a nation brought forth all at once?
For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through

“Would I, who cause the birth,

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.

as required by reason;

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

There is not a solitary village throughout

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights

When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

He is the Hearer, the Seer.”

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”

(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

offspring, glory be to Him.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine

five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation
spurred young Arabs to search for dramatic remedies

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

He has given to no other nation.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will

(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,

strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

offspring, glory be to Him.

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first

championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed

The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

"The creation and continuation of Israel is one of
the greatest crimes, and you [the Americans]
are the leaders of its criminals.There is no need
to explain and prove the degree of American
support for Israel. The creation of Israel is a

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights

before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.

seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Hamas – (Arabic) = zeal

Hamas – Arabic = zeal
Hamas – Hebrew verb =
to treat violently
Chamas -Hebrew noun =

established order

PLO Charter - 1968
Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

1967 – Six Day War
The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."
Exodus 14:23-25

“Everyone lost their heads,”
recalled Dr. Abd al-Fattah al-Tarki,
a humanities student and a reserve officer
with the 2nd Armored Brigade.
“We were told to withdraw
to Bir al-Thamada, but we arrived
to find the positions there already in flames.
The army on the roads was in a state
of complete collapse. It was a massacre, a disaster.
Israel never would have achieved a quarter
of its victory if not for the confusion and chaos.”

Who has ever seen such things?
Is a country born in one day?
Is a nation brought forth all at once?
For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation
spurred young Arabs to search for dramatic remedies

Eighth-graders are taught that,
"It is known that the Jews of today do not have
any connection to Palestine…”

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

Knesset Member Ibrahim Abdullah Sarsur,
who heads the southern Islamic Movement
inside Israel, published an official
announcement Sunday according to which
a nation he called the “Arab Jebusites”
founded the city of Jerusalem –
which he referred to using the Arabic name
Al Quds – a long time before the Jews
showed up there.

5: 20-21 – Bear in mind the words of Moses to his

people. He said, 'Remember, my people, the favors which
Allah has bestowed upon you. He has raised up Prophets
among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

17: 104 - And thereafter We said to the Children of
Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

see you and your people are in clear error.'
And so We showed Abraham the kingdom of the

are certain.”

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:

(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

“Under the

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

During the last watch of the night the Lord

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Land of the Israelites (Koran)
5: 20-21 – Bear in mind the words of Moses to his

people. He said, 'Remember, my people, the favors which
Allah has bestowed upon you. He has raised up Prophets
among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

17: 104 - And thereafter We said to the Children of
Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

are certain.”

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first

the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed

The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product

There is not a solitary village throughout

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through
and not be born?” asks Adonai.
“Would I, who cause the birth,
shut the womb?” asks your God.

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will

offspring, glory be to Him.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

There is not a solitary village throughout

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Had the Jews lost the war, their territory
would not have been handed over to the
Palestinian Arabs. Rather, it would have
been divided among the invading
Arab forces, for the simple reason that none
of the region’s Arab regimes viewed
Palestine as a distinct entity and most of
them had their own designs on this territory.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses

During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Burial in Medina, 2nd holiest site
Beginning of Sunni vs Shiite

690 AD - Dome of the Rock

Al-Aqsa mosque

(Al Haram al Sharif – Noble Sanctuary)

3rd Holiest Site

Inner Face: South Wall - In the name of Allah the Merciful the
Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”
Good & evil are foreordained
(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory
under the scientist’s lens,
while we in the Muslim world lag behind
because we have come from
a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

“Under the
Ottoman empire of the Turks,
the policy of disfoliation continued;
the hillsides were denuded
of trees and the valleys
robbed of their topsoil.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

I will scatter you
– but I will gather you
And while you are away,
the land will be desolate;

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

PLO Charter - 1968
Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

Al Quds – a long time before the Jews

among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens

“We were told to withdraw
to Bir al-Thamada, but we arrived
to find the positions there already in flames.
The army on the roads was in a state
of complete collapse. It was a massacre, a disaster.
Israel never would have achieved a quarter
of its victory if not for the confusion and chaos.”

Who has ever seen such things?
Is a country born in one day?
Is a nation brought forth all at once?
For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through

“Would I, who cause the birth,

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.

as required by reason;

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”

(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

offspring, glory be to Him.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine

five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation
spurred young Arabs to search for dramatic remedies

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

He has given to no other nation.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will

(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,

strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Eighth-graders are taught that,

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

offspring, glory be to Him.

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first

championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed

The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

"The creation and continuation of Israel is one of
the greatest crimes, and you [the Americans]
are the leaders of its criminals.There is no need
to explain and prove the degree of American
support for Israel. The creation of Israel is a

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights

before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.

seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Hamas – (Arabic) = zeal

Hamas – Arabic = zeal
Hamas – Hebrew verb =
to treat violently
Chamas -Hebrew noun =

established order

PLO Charter - 1968
Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

1967 – Six Day War
The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

“Everyone lost their heads,”
recalled Dr. Abd al-Fattah al-Tarki,
a humanities student and a reserve officer
with the 2nd Armored Brigade.
“We were told to withdraw
to Bir al-Thamada, but we arrived
to find the positions there already in flames.
The army on the roads was in a state
of complete collapse. It was a massacre, a disaster.
Israel never would have achieved a quarter
of its victory if not for the confusion and chaos.”

Who has ever seen such things?
Is a country born in one day?
Is a nation brought forth all at once?
For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation
spurred young Arabs to search for dramatic remedies

Eighth-graders are taught that,
"It is known that the Jews of today do not have
any connection to Palestine…”

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

Knesset Member Ibrahim Abdullah Sarsur,
who heads the southern Islamic Movement
inside Israel, published an official
announcement Sunday according to which
a nation he called the “Arab Jebusites”
founded the city of Jerusalem –
which he referred to using the Arabic name
Al Quds – a long time before the Jews
showed up there.

5: 20-21 – Bear in mind the words of Moses to his

people. He said, 'Remember, my people, the favors which
Allah has bestowed upon you. He has raised up Prophets
among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

are certain.”

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:

America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

“Under the

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

During the last watch of the night the Lord

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine

five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Land of the Israelites (Koran)
5: 20-21 – Bear in mind the words of Moses to his

people. He said, 'Remember, my people, the favors which
Allah has bestowed upon you. He has raised up Prophets
among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

17: 104 - And thereafter We said to the Children of
Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

are certain.”

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first

the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed

America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product

There is not a solitary village throughout

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through
and not be born?” asks Adonai.
“Would I, who cause the birth,
shut the womb?” asks your God.

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will

offspring, glory be to Him.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

There is not a solitary village throughout

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Had the Jews lost the war, their territory
would not have been handed over to the
Palestinian Arabs. Rather, it would have
been divided among the invading
Arab forces, for the simple reason that none
of the region’s Arab regimes viewed
Palestine as a distinct entity and most of
them had their own designs on this territory.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses

During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

Burial in Medina, 2nd holiest site
Beginning of Sunni vs Shiite

690 AD - Dome of the Rock

Al-Aqsa mosque

(Al Haram al Sharif – Noble Sanctuary)

3rd Holiest Site

Inner Face: South Wall - In the name of Allah the Merciful the
Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”
Good & evil are foreordained
(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory
under the scientist’s lens,
while we in the Muslim world lag behind
because we have come from
a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

“Under the
Ottoman empire of the Turks,
the policy of disfoliation continued;
the hillsides were denuded
of trees and the valleys
robbed of their topsoil.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

I will scatter you
– but I will gather you
And while you are away,
the land will be desolate;

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

PLO Charter - 1968
Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

Al Quds – a long time before the Jews

among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens

“We were told to withdraw
to Bir al-Thamada, but we arrived
to find the positions there already in flames.
The army on the roads was in a state
of complete collapse. It was a massacre, a disaster.
Israel never would have achieved a quarter
of its victory if not for the confusion and chaos.”

Who has ever seen such things?
Is a country born in one day?
Is a nation brought forth all at once?
For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through

“Would I, who cause the birth,

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.

as required by reason;

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”

(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

offspring, glory be to Him.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine

five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation
spurred young Arabs to search for dramatic remedies

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

He has given to no other nation.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will

(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,

strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

offspring, glory be to Him.

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

During the last watch of the night the Lord

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first

championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed

The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

America is great because its people enjoy

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

"The creation and continuation of Israel is one of
the greatest crimes, and you [the Americans]
are the leaders of its criminals.There is no need
to explain and prove the degree of American
support for Israel. The creation of Israel is a

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights

before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.

seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Hamas – (Arabic) = zeal

Hamas – Arabic = zeal
Hamas – Hebrew verb =

Chamas -Hebrew noun =

established order

PLO Charter - 1968
Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

1967 – Six Day War
The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

“Everyone lost their heads,”
recalled Dr. Abd al-Fattah al-Tarki,
a humanities student and a reserve officer
with the 2nd Armored Brigade.
“We were told to withdraw
to Bir al-Thamada, but we arrived
to find the positions there already in flames.
The army on the roads was in a state
of complete collapse. It was a massacre, a disaster.
Israel never would have achieved a quarter
of its victory if not for the confusion and chaos.”

Who has ever seen such things?
Is a country born in one day?
Is a nation brought forth all at once?
For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation
spurred young Arabs to search for dramatic remedies

Eighth-graders are taught that,
"It is known that the Jews of today do not have
any connection to Palestine…”

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

Knesset Member Ibrahim Abdullah Sarsur,
who heads the southern Islamic Movement
inside Israel, published an official
announcement Sunday according to which
a nation he called the “Arab Jebusites”
founded the city of Jerusalem –
which he referred to using the Arabic name
Al Quds – a long time before the Jews
showed up there.

5: 20-21 – Bear in mind the words of Moses to his

people. He said, 'Remember, my people, the favors which
Allah has bestowed upon you. He has raised up Prophets
among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

see you and your people are in clear error.'
And so We showed Abraham the kingdom of the

are certain.”

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

“Under the

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

During the last watch of the night the Lord

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Land of the Israelites (Koran)
5: 20-21 – Bear in mind the words of Moses to his

people. He said, 'Remember, my people, the favors which
Allah has bestowed upon you. He has raised up Prophets
among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

17: 104 - And thereafter We said to the Children of
Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

are certain.”

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first

the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed

The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product

its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through
and not be born?” asks Adonai.
“Would I, who cause the birth,
shut the womb?” asks your God.

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will

offspring, glory be to Him.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

There is not a solitary village throughout

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Had the Jews lost the war, their territory
would not have been handed over to the
Palestinian Arabs. Rather, it would have
been divided among the invading
Arab forces, for the simple reason that none
of the region’s Arab regimes viewed
Palestine as a distinct entity and most of
them had their own designs on this territory.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses

During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Burial in Medina, 2nd holiest site
Beginning of Sunni vs Shiite

690 AD - Dome of the Rock

Al-Aqsa mosque

(Al Haram al Sharif – Noble Sanctuary)

3rd Holiest Site

Inner Face: South Wall - In the name of Allah the Merciful the
Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”
Good & evil are foreordained
(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory
under the scientist’s lens,
while we in the Muslim world lag behind
because we have come from
a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

“Under the
Ottoman empire of the Turks,
the policy of disfoliation continued;
the hillsides were denuded
of trees and the valleys
robbed of their topsoil.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

I will scatter you
– but I will gather you
And while you are away,
the land will be desolate;

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

PLO Charter - 1968
Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

The expenses he laid out upon it were vastly large also,

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

America is great because its people enjoy

There is not a solitary village throughout

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises

not interrogation.

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with

recalled Dr. Abd al-Fattah al-Tarki,
a humanities student and a reserve officer
with the 2nd Armored Brigade.
“We were told to withdraw
to Bir al-Thamada, but we arrived
to find the positions there already in flames.
The army on the roads was in a state
of complete collapse. It was a massacre, a disaster.
Israel never would have achieved a quarter
of its victory if not for the confusion and chaos.”

Who has ever seen such things?
Is a country born in one day?
Is a nation brought forth all at once?
For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through

“Would I, who cause the birth,

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,

as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

(peace_be_upon_him). He will descend (to the earth).
When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

He is the Hearer, the Seer.”

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”

(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

offspring, glory be to Him.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.

We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God

So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation
spurred young Arabs to search for dramatic remedies

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him

Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will

(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,

and the necessity of man’s free will.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises

not interrogation.

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory
under the scientist’s lens,
while we in the Muslim world lag behind
because we have come from
a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

“Under the
Ottoman empire of the Turks,
the policy of disfoliation continued;
the hillsides were denuded
of trees and the valleys
robbed of their topsoil.”

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses

During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first

championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed

The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

America is great because its people enjoy

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

allegedly written
by Osama bin Laden – 12/02
"The creation and continuation of Israel is one of
the greatest crimes, and you [the Americans]
are the leaders of its criminals.There is no need
to explain and prove the degree of American
support for Israel. The creation of Israel is a
crime which must be erased.
Each and every person whose hands have become
polluted in the contribution toward this crime
must pay its price, and pay for it heavily."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation

Eighth-graders are taught that,

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

offspring, glory be to Him.

after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]

We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.

Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Had the Jews lost the war, their territory

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Eighth-graders are taught that,

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised

offspring, glory be to Him.

the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”

(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory

a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles

clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

“Under the
Ottoman empire of the Turks,
the policy of disfoliation continued;
the hillsides were denuded

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses

During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had

"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

and the necessity of man’s free will.

Asharites vs Mutazilites

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine

five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Land of the Israelites (Koran)
5: 20-21 – Bear in mind the words of Moses to his

people. He said, 'Remember, my people, the favors which
Allah has bestowed upon you. He has raised up Prophets
among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.

17: 104 - And thereafter We said to the Children of
Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'

are certain.”

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first

reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed

The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product

its own failure to come to grips with science.”

There is not a solitary village throughout

One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,

“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through
and not be born?” asks Adonai.
“Would I, who cause the birth,
shut the womb?” asks your God.

Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Eighth-graders are taught that,

Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will

offspring, glory be to Him.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation

not interrogation.

There is not a solitary village throughout

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.

were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

Had the Jews lost the war, their territory
would not have been handed over to the
Palestinian Arabs. Rather, it would have
been divided among the invading
Arab forces, for the simple reason that none
of the region’s Arab regimes viewed
Palestine as a distinct entity and most of
them had their own designs on this territory.

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

of Jews with Palestine are incompatible

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses

During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the

the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

This is especially true where the population is young,

where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

Burial in Medina, 2nd holiest site
Beginning of Sunni vs Shiite

690 AD - Dome of the Rock

Al-Aqsa mosque

(Al Haram al Sharif – Noble Sanctuary)

3rd Holiest Site

Inner Face: South Wall - In the name of Allah the Merciful the
Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”
Good & evil are foreordained
(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory
under the scientist’s lens,
while we in the Muslim world lag behind
because we have come from
a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”

“The Innocents Abroad”
There is not a solitary village throughout
its whole extent—not for thirty miles
in either direction. There are two or three small
clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single
permanent habitation.
One may ride ten miles, hereabouts,
and not see ten human beings.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

“Under the
Ottoman empire of the Turks,
the policy of disfoliation continued;
the hillsides were denuded
of trees and the valleys
robbed of their topsoil.”
From Time Immemorial – Joan Peters
Quoting Carl Hermann Voss - 1953

I will scatter you
– but I will gather you
And while you are away,
the land will be desolate;

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)
18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

PLO Charter - 1968
Article 20: Claims of historical or religious ties
of Jews with Palestine are incompatible
with the facts of history and the true conception
of what constitutes statehood. Judaism, being
a religion, is not an independent nationality.
Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with
an identity of its own; they are citizens
of the states to which they belong.

The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses
and chariots and horsemen followed them into the sea.
During the last watch of the night the Lord
looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the
Egyptian army and threw it into confusion. He made
the wheels of their chariots come off so that they had
difficulty driving. And the Egyptians said,
"Let's get away from the Israelites!
The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt."

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –

are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.

The expenses he laid out upon it were vastly large also,

Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.

Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.

as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)

Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.

America is great because its people enjoy

There is not a solitary village throughout

To this region one of the prophecies is applied:
"I will bring the land into desolation;
and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah
and say the prophecy has not been fulfilled.

1867 – Mark Twain
“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return
in the 1880’s, Palestine was laid waste.
Its ancient canal and irrigation systems
were destroyed and the wondrous fertility
of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.

Answer to 9 accusations by

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.

The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.

among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘

10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and

and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.

North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is

Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.

In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises

not interrogation.

shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and I will draw out a sword
after you; and your land shall be desolate
and your cities waste." [Leviticus 26:32-33]
No man can stand here by deserted Ain Mellahah

“The Innocents Abroad”
We traversed some miles of desolate country
whose soil is rich enough, but is given over
wholly to weeds—a silent, mournful expanse,
wherein we saw only three persons—Arabs
It is a hopeless, dreary, heart-broken land.

Palestine is desolate and unlovely.
And why should it be otherwise?
Can the curse of the Deity beautify a land?

“In the twelve and a half centuries between
the Arab conquest in the seventh century
And the beginnings of the Jewish return

of which the Bible spoke
vanished into desert and desolation.”

18 August 1988
Preamble excerpt:
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it"
(The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Article Six:
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is a distinguished
Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose
way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over
every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of
all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives,
possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam,
strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms
and wars will break out.

Article 11 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement believes
that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf
consecrated for future Moslem generations
until Judgement Day. It, or any part of it,
should not be squandered: it, or any part of it,
should not be given up.
Article 13 excerpt:
There is no solution for the Palestinian
question except through Jihad. Initiatives,
proposals and international conferences are
all a waste of time and vain endeavors.

Article 15 excerpt:
It is necessary to instill in the minds of the
Moslem generations that the Palestinian
problem is a religious problem, and should be
dealt with on this basis.
Article 23 excerpt:
The Islamic Resistance Movement views other
Islamic movements with respect and
appreciation.

Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with

“Everyone lost their heads,”
