ISCC affiliated Imams Issue Important Fatwa
Attack on Canada and the United States is Attack on Muslims Over 10 million Muslims Live in North America
Calgary) Twenty Imams affiliated with the Islamic Supreme Council of Canada have issued a Fatwa today declaring the attacks on Canada and the United States by any extremist will be the attack on 10 million Muslims living in North America. This is the first Fatwa by the Muslim clergy declaring attacks on Canada and the United States as attack on Muslims. Following is the text of the Fatwa.
FATWA (religious edict)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
We, the undersigned Imams, are issuing the following Fatwa in order to guide the Muslims of North America regarding the attacks on Canada and the United States by the terrorists and the extremists. In our view, these attacks are evil and Islam requires from Muslims to stand up against this evil. In the holy Qur’an Almighty Allah orders Muslims,
"Let there among you be a group that summon to all that is beneficial commands what is proper and forbids what is improper; they are the ones who will prosper." (3:104)
"Believing men and believing women are protecting friends of one another; they enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong; they perform salat and give zakat..." (9:71)
"Those who, if We establish them in the land (with authority), establish regular prayers and practice regular charity and enjoin the right and forbid the wrong..." (22:41)
Our beloved Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said in a Hadith;
"When people see a wrong-doer and do nothing to stop him, they may well be visited by God with a punishment."
Therefore, it is an obligation upon us (Imams) to inform all Muslims around the world that Muslims in Canada and the United States have complete freedom to practice Islam. There is no single city in Canada and the United States where MASAJIDS (Mosques) are not built. In all major cities Islamic schools provide education to Muslim children about Qur’an and the Islamic traditions. Thousands of Muslims perform Hajj every year and travel to Saudi Arabia with complete freedom and respect. In the month of Ramadan, both Canadian and the United States governments recognize the occasion and greet all Muslim citizens. Muslims pray five daily prayers in mosques without any fear or restrictions. Muslims have complete freedom to pay Zakat (poor due) to the charity or a person of their choice. Muslims have complete freedom to celebrate their festivals openly, publicly and Islamically. Muslims enjoy freedom of religion just like Christians, Jews and others. No one stops us from obeying Allah and His Messenger (Peace be upon him). No one stops us from preaching Islam and practicing Islam. In many cases, Muslims have more freedom to practice Islam here in Canada and the United States than many Muslim countries.
In fact, the constitutions of the United States and Canada are very close to the Islamic guiding principles of human rights and freedom. There is no conflict between the Islamic values of freedom and justice and the Canadian /US values of freedom and justice.
Therefore, any attack on Canada and the United States is an attack on the freedom of Canadian and American Muslims. Any attack on Canada and the United States is an attack on thousands of mosques across North America. It is a duty of every Canadian and American Muslim to safeguard Canada and the USA. They must expose any person, Muslim OR non-Muslim, who would cause harm to fellow Canadians OR Americans. We, Canadian and American Muslims, must condemn and stand up against these attacks on Canada and the United States.
May Allah save Canada, the United States and the entire world from the evil of wrong doers. Ameen.

I forgot to add:
“IF OBAMA IS A MUSLIM AND OBAMA’S AMERICA IS ATTACKED, THEREFORE
ATTACK TO AMERICA IS AN ATTACK TO OBAMA, ITS PRESIDENT.
AND ATTACK TO OBAMA, BEING A MOSLEM BY BLOOD, ONLY MEANS ONE THING:
ATTACK TO THE MUSLIMS IN AMERICA.
BWA HA HA HA!
My thoughts, IT’S ABOUT DAMN TIME THEY ISSUED A FATWA DECLARING ATTACKING AMERICA AND CANADA AS TERRORISM AND IS EVIL!
IT’S ABOUT TIME THEY TOOK A STAND!
What is that?
So what is the best foreign policy now for Obama?
Go to that Magic Pulpit again, Use that TOTUS, and get all the MSM suckers out there ....
and reveal/declare to the WORLD:
“I, OBAMA, IS A CLOSET (sigh, to blind dems at least) MUSLIM!”
“Please, I beg you, in the name of A___, DON’T ATTACK MY AMERICA.”
“I’m your brother”.
And all the America-hating moslems will be teary eyed coz: THEY HAVE FOUND THEIR LONG LOST BROTHER.
In the sense to which I was referring, it is the Muslim practice of bald-faced lying to infidels, in order to achieve the ultimate aims of Islam.
When done in this manner, the lying and deception is not considered a sin, but rather an honorable tactic, to achieve what they consider a greater good.
Bottom line: you can't trust *anything* they say.
Kind of like Democrats.
Hello mullah
Hello fstwa
Here I am
In Camp Jihada...
It seems to me as though this could easily be a muzzie scheme to prevent the profiling they know would strongly curtail the terrorist activities they facilitate from inside the country.
None of them should be trusted, although there may well be some who are trustworthy. Those are the breaks.
psssst......if you can keep the deal quiet, I got this really beautiful bridge I can let you have for a mere pittance of its full value.......
The koran is allah’s word, the sunnahs and hadiths detail what those words mean.
From those other 4 books come muslim beliefs. Without them the koran becomes what most westerners think of as a “bible equivilant”, which it manifestly is not.
From them we also lean that the 1st half of the koran is invalid - which is where the oxymoron “peaceful muslim” comes from.
We learn that Mohammad proclaimed only the 2nd half is valid, since it was given last and is the final word of allah. And there we see that it is the duty of every muslim to kill all those not them, unto the last human alive - wherein all humanity will be in “Paradise”.
You failed to mention the 1 million plus muslims who were killed in the Iran-Iraq War... many by poison gas and land mines. Or that the Crusaders were trying to take back the land the muslims took by force from Christians. Or that the Dome of the Rock ia a 7th Century tourist attraction used by the Southern Syrians aka Palistinians as an excuse to kill Jews and perscute local Christians. Or that all the wars around the planet are begun by muslims against anyone who isn’t.
“Do to the Muslims what the Romans did to Carthagians..but it will never happen..”
Never say never - nowdays we don’t use salt. We use thremonuclar weapons - a small one on Mecca would do the job nicely.
“The bottom line is ISLAM is mostly incompatible with American values, our culture and our way of life.”
Islam is incompatable with everything that did not exist in the 7th century. “If something is mentioned in the koran, then it is superfluous and therefore not needed; if something is not mentioned in the Koran, then it is anathama and therefore must be destroyed.” - a quote from an 10th or 11th century caliph.
“Close, but not a full cigar. Non-muslims need to be allowed to live too.
Send it back for revision and get ALL the muslim leaders signature this time too.”
You miss the point - permitting non-muslims to live is not in the koran, sunnahas or hadiths. Non-muslims are specifiaally targeted for death. Also, even if every muslin ‘leader’ signed the thing, it would be no less a taqiyah.
Islam “... fails the definition for a religion.” But suceeds as a political movement with religious trappings.
This would have held more water if it had been issued September 12, 2001.
Not only is it a ‘no’, but reformation is specifically forbiden in Islam, under obligatory pain of death to the reformers by all other muslims.

An attack on Canada and the United States is will result in a thermonuclear attack on Mecca.
