"The Sunna Shines..."

A nice example of Saudi preaching, from MEMRI:

Following are excerpts from an interview with Saudi cleric Muhammad Al-Munajid, which aired on Iqra TV on July 26, 2007:

Sheik Muhammad Al-Munajid: This is a nation of monotheism, and this is the Islam that Allah wants to spread throughout the world, and to rule the land it its entirety. Allah wants this. He sent down the Koran and the hadith for that purpose.

[...]

Humanity can have no happiness without Islam. Humanity can enjoy no goodness, unless the sun of monotheism, the Koran, and the Sunna shines upon it. The world without the sun of the divine revelation is a place of eternal darkness, as we can see today – a world of frustration, collapse, injustice, arbitrariness, and wrongdoing. The world today is a jungle – a world of barbarism of all kinds. People in many parts of the world are not happy, because they do not walk in the path of Allah.

[...]

There are rules of shari'a in everything. We have counted almost 70 rules about how to urinate and defecate. In contrast, how do those beasts in the West answer the call of nature? They stand in front of other people, in toilets at airports and other public places. They do not care about covering their private parts. Even their underwear is colored and not white, so it can conceal all that filth. We are a nation that has long known the meaning of cleanliness, what to do when nature calls, and what the rules of hygiene are. The others, to this day, live like beasts. To this day, many of them are not circumcised, even though the World Health Organization has advised to circumcise people as a treatment for AIDS, because it has been scientifically proven that circumcised people are less susceptible to AIDS, and are less likely to spread it than uncircumcised people.

If that is a good charaterization of Islam - then I'll more than pass on the religion as a standard of any real use to me. 70 laws about pissing - c'mon - that's just 69 laws too much and extremely neurotic. The rest of the world is 'barbarians/heathens' - I thought language like that died in the mid 50's/early 60's - yet here we see an Islamic cleric resurrecting those same ideas in his teachings...sad.

If this is what faith in Islam looks like - they are to be pitied for their lawful lifetsyle - which will condemn them before it frees them.

Interesting words about the world being a place of misery because we do not walk in the path of Allah. The path if Allah is one of violence, force, oppression to women, and terrorism. Conversely, I think the "way of Allah" is a primary cause FOR much of today's issues.

Yes Fletcher, but the violence and terrorism foresee the great goal of peace and harmony. It's like the Communists who killed hundreds of thousands because they "knew" that the end result would be the workers' paradise.
