Seriously, Senator McCain?!?
 
Dear Fox friends,
John McCain needs to learn the Arabic language and the truth of Islam before his off the cuff comment about the word,  “Allahu, Akbar.”
1 - Allahu Akbar means allah is great
2-Muslims use this word only in time of killing any non-Muslim to have the support from their allah who teach Muslims in the Koran and Hadith, to kill anyone who does not believe in their way.
3-Allahu akbar is not same as for the Christian thank you God
4-Allahu akbar according to the Islamic tradition and history use this word in any Islamic war
5-John McCain’s comment was same as George W. Bush when he said Islam is a religion of love and peace. All Muslims around the world are taking John McCain comment the same as George W. Bush as a funny and a comical.
6 -I'm a ex-prisoner of Egypt for 6 months at the Abuzaabel prison for my Christian faith and according to Shariaa Islamia.
7 -I was given the death penalty with 7 other people from the Egyptian court for defending the Copts (Christians of Egypt) from all discrimination for their Christians beliefs, according to the Shariaa Islamya
 
 Thank you

Seriously, Senator McCain?!?


Dear Nabil,

This is part one of a two-part email illustrating how “Jihad Denial Syndrome” has blinded the judgment of so many of our federal politicians, both Republican and Democrat.

“Jihad Denial Syndrome” is a term coined by ACT! for America Executive Director Guy Rodgers in a column he wrote in 2010 that appeared in The Hill’s Congress Blog.

Today we highlight Republican Senator John McCain, who in a recent Fox News interview compared Muslims screaming “Allahu Akbar” to Christians saying “Thank God.”

Astonishing.

Please see Andrew Bostom’s analysis (below) of this foolish comparison, posted this past Tuesday on Pajamas Media.

Is it any wonder our national counterterrorism policies fail to accurately describe and define our jihadist enemies???

Educating John McCain on the Meaning of ‘Allahu-Akbar’

Posted By Andrew G. Bostom On September 3, 2013

During a Tuesday (9/3/13) morning appearance (Preview) on Fox News Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) took umbrage (hat tip Ben Shapiro) at Fox News host Brian Kilmeade’s disgust with Syrian anti-Assad opposition groups shouting “Allahu Akhbar! Allahu Akhbar!” when their rockets apparently shot down a Syrian jet.

To Kilmeade, appropriately, such outcries illustrated the predominant jihadist influence within the coalition of groups opposing the Assad regime. Kilmeade stated (Preview) ,
I have a problem helping those people screaming that [Allahu-Akbar!] after a hit.

A perturbed, if typically feckless McCain replied (Preview) , without any basic linguistic understanding, or supportive evidence of the rocket launchers’ alleged “moderation,” by making an immoral equivalence to Christianity:
Would you have a problem with an American or Christians saying “thank God? Thank God?” That’s what they’re saying. Come on! Of course they’re Muslims, but they’re moderates and I guarantee you they are moderates.

One of the English translators of the great 14th century Muslim jurist (d. 1350) Ibn Qayyim’s “The Way to Patience and Gratitude” opts for “Allah is Greater” as the specific translation of Allahu Akbar. On page 463, the following explanation is provided:

…I preferred using “the Greater” to “the Greatest”… Allahu Akbar literally means, “Allah is Greater” with the comparative mode. Yet, this does not mean that He (Glory be to Him) is not the Greatest, nor does it mean that there is anything that is put in comparison with Him. This is because when the Muslim says it, he means He is “Greater” than anything else, which, consequently, means He is the Greatest. This use gives more influence. This may be why it is used in Arabic this way, otherwise it should have been used as “Allahu al-Akbar”, in the superlative mode. Surely, Allah Knows best.

E. W. Lane’s classical 19th century Arabic English Lexicon, (p. 2587) elaborates on the preferred “elliptical” meaning:

[Allah] is the greatest great [being] or [Allah] is greater than every other great [being]

“Allahu Akbar” has been employed by Muslims as a jihadist war cry dating from its declaration by Islam’s prophet Muhammad when he made an aggressive proto-jihadist foray on the Jews of the Khaybar oasis. Here is how the phrase has been rendered into English by pious Muslims from the canonical hadith collection (Sahih Bukhari 4:52:195):

Narrated Anas: The Prophet set out for Khaibar and reached it at night. He used not to attack if he reached the people at night, till the day broke. So, when the day dawned, the Jews came out with their bags and spades. When they saw the Prophet; they said, “Muhammad and his army!” The Prophet said, “Allahu-Akbar! (Allah is Greater) and Khaybar is ruined, for whenever we approach a nation (i.e. enemy to fight) then it will be a miserable morning for those who have been warned.”

The willful intellectual and moral blindness of U.S. political and military leaders to the doctrine of jihad—epitomized by John McCain—continues to engender self-destructive “solutions” to global jihad depredations, in Syria, and across the globe.
