Mr. Zawadi now starts quoting from other Islamic sites:
Taken from http://www.jamaat.org/islam/HumanRightsEnemies.html
5. No looting and destruction in the
enemy's country
Muslims have been instructed by the
Prophet not to pillage or plunder or destroy residential areas, nor harm
the property of anyone not fighting. It has been narrated in the Hadith:
"The Prophet has prohibited the Believers from loot and
plunder" (Bukhari, AbuDawood). His injunction is: "The loot is
no more lawful than the carrion" (AbuDawood). AbuBakr Siddeeq used
to tell soldiers on their way to war: "Do not destroy the villages
and towns, do not spoil the cultivated fields and gardens, and do not
slaughter the cattle." |
Any Muslim knows, if a hadith is contrary to the Quran, the latter is to be
taken as authority and that haidth is false.
Muhammad made his own wealth through loot.
And know that out of all the booty that ye may
acquire (in war), a fifth share is assigned to Allah,- and to the Messenger,
8:41
"Allah and his Messenger"? What Allah wanted to do with those
loots?
What was the reason for raiding Khaibar? Were the people of Khaibar a threat
to Muslims? In the sixth year of Hijra Muhammad had promised victory to his
foolhardy followers over Mecca
but when he saw that waging a war with just 1500 men may make him lose, he
signed a treaty that his followers felt was humiliating to them. To boost their
sagging morale he directed them to Khaibar and they fell upon that town all of a
sudden at dawn when people had gone out of their homes to the fields and after
their works. He wrote:
Allah was well
pleased with the believers when they swore allegiance unto thee beneath the
tree, and He knew what was in their hearts, and He sent down peace of
reassurance on them, and hath rewarded
them with a near victory;
And much booty that they will capture. Allah is ever Mighty, Wise. Allah
promiseth you much booty that ye will capture, and hath given you
this in advance. 48:18-20
What the people of Khaibar had done
to Muslims? Nothing! They were minding their own business. The reason Muhammad
raided them, destroyed their town and looted them was because they were a
prosperous people. Muhammad wanted to please his hungry marauding men with an
easy victory and booty. They were hungry because Muhammad devastated their town
by killing and expelling all the Jews who were artisans, farmers and tradesmen
for whom the Arabs used to work. With Jews killed and expelled they entirely
depended on raids for their sustenance.
There is a sura called Anfal (spoils
of war, booty). It starts by saying "(such) spoils are at the disposal of
Allah and the Messenger” Of course God has no needs for the belongings of his
wretched creatures. It is clear that the beneficiary of those loots was Muhammad
alone. And this shameless criminal would make even God an accomplice of his
crimes. Only a fool can still believe that this charlatan was a messenger of
God. Forget about all the proofs I gave so far. Only this verse is enough to see
this man was a liar. The maker of this universe has no needs for the possessions
of humans and if he wanted to destroy or humiliate them, assuming he is a sadist
like Muhammad, he would not need a bunch of henchmen and gangsters to do his
dirty work.
What does “spoils of war” mean?
Doesn’t it mean looting?
Booty of war from the
battleground is altogether different. It consists of the wealth,
provisions and equipment captured from the camps and military
headquarters of the combatant armies and may legitimately be
appropriated. |
This Muslim apologist wants us to believe that what Muhammad captured in his
raids was just military equipment. That is a shameful lie. Muhammad
captured herds of camels, livestock, household property, cultivated lands and
the houses of his victims. He captured their every possession. He even captured many as hostages or used them as
slaves.
In the year eight of Hijra, after the Meccans surrendered, Muhammad decided
to raid the big tribe of Hawazin who lived in the territory of
Hunain. He captured their women and children and all their belongings after their men
fled to the wilderness for their safety. Ibn Ishaq wrote:
Then a deputation from Hawazin came to him in al-Ji’rana
where he held 6,ooo women and children captive, and
sheep and camels innumerable which had been captured from them.
To soften his heart, this deputation, which comprised Shima, his foster
sister, reminded him that he grew amongst them during the first 5 years of his
life and how they took care of him and now he should not pay them back in this
way. One of them said:
Have pity on us, apostle of
Allah, generously, For you are the man from whom we hope and expect pity. Have
pity on a people whom fate has frustrated, Their well-being shattered by
time’s misfortunes.
Muhammad told them to accept Islam and gave them two
choices:
‘Which are dearest to you? Your sons and your
wives or
your cattle?’ They replied, ‘Do you give us the choice between
our cattle and our honor? Nay, give us back our wives and our sons, for that it
what we most desire.’
What a despicable beast!
Muhammad left the Hawazin completely dispossessed and distributed the large
booty among the wealthiest of
Mecca
to “sweeten Islam in their mouths."
This apologist writes like a person who knows Islam quite well. So when he
claims the booty was just the military equipment he is engaging in taqiyyah or
the Islamic art of holy deception. He is simply lying for the sake of Allah.
He will meet Allah and his messenger in Hell.
