Drum roll please!
Muslims of Britain are planning to
reshape the skyline of London by adding a massive mosque near the Olympic
complex that will hold 40,000 ‘faith-fools’ of Islam
- according to a report of ‘The Sunday Times of Britain’.
What mosque has to do with the
modern Olympic? Ancient Olympic, which was a part of religious festival at
Olympia
that honored Greek god Zeus with parades and sacrifices, has evolved
impressively over the time. Today’s Olympic is not only about medals and
records but also an international reunion. The essence of Olympic and its
distinctive secularism bring people of all nations together. Greeks
believed that victors were divinely favored and they were rewarded with a
crown of olive leaves, cut from Zeus’ blessed orchard. The athletes used
to swore oaths on slices of boar’s flesh to abide the rules of the
games.
The Sunday Times of Britain
reveals “…its surrounding buildings would hold a total of 70,000
people, only 10,000 fewer than the Olympic stadium…. The complex is
designed to become the “Muslim quarter” for the Games, acting as a hub
for Islamic competitors and spectators….. The new building will be
called the London Markaz (Arabic for center) and will be built in place of
an existing mosque on a 10-acre site 500 yards from the Olympic
development.”
Why Muslim athletes and spectators
need special quarter? Can’t they share the sprit of Olympic with the
people of other nations and faith? No, they cannot. Muslims, inflated with
ego and prejudice that derive from Quranic teachings, believe that they
are superior to others. When whole world is striving to become secular,
Muslims must go back to the hole of Islam and separate themselves from
rest of the mankind. If Muslims are adamant to give Islam a new life at
the Olympic, may be Olympic committee should bring back the ancient
tradition of Greek religion i.e. have all athletes swear oaths on slice of
boar’s flesh.
The notorious Tabligi Jamaat, an
Islamic political party who is behind the project claims that it’s only
a humanitarian work. Indeed it is! Making special arrangement for Muslims
is a humanitarian work because they are the humans and rest are infidels.
Tabligi Jamaat has a reputation of doing many humanitarian works that
includes recruiting for Al-Qaeda - as a senior US anti-terrorism official
disclosed.
Muslims already have the largest
worshipping place in London - the Baitul Futuh in Morden, Surrey holds
about 10,000 people whereas the biggest cathedral that Christians have at
Liverpool, has a capacity of 3,000 –Sunday Times announced. Still it’s
not enough for Muslims. They need a bigger mosque and a designated place
for Muslim athletes that would isolate them from other participants of
Olympic, which will simply damage the spirit of Olympic.
Muslims are obsessed with three
‘M’s, i.e. Mohammad, Mosques and ‘Madrasas’. In any Islamic
country, mosques grow faster than mosquitoes and they play an important
role in nourishing hatred towards other faiths. Often the government
sponsors this mosques and madrasas. It’s a well-known fact that madrasas
are the breeding ground of bearded piranhas, the cutthroat ‘Jihadi’
soldiers of Allah. Moderate Muslims, the apparent preachers of peaceful
religion never say a word against this madrasas or initiate a movement to
close these swamps.
Saudi Arabia and many other
Islamic countries are good at exporting oil and mosques. They don’t ship
readymade mosques but generously finance in this project. In USA, more
than 80 percent of an estimated 1200 mosques have been built within the
last 20 years, mostly with Saudi money. It’s a vicious cycle. We buy oil
from them and they use the money to spread Islam, as Daniel Pipes, the
head of the Middle East Forum in Philadelphia said, “You certainly can
say that U.S. oil purchases end up funding U.S. mosques.”
Sunday Times of Britain also gave
an estimated amount that will cost to build the gigantic project. It’s
expected, more than £100m will be spent, which equals to 173 million
dollars. Considering many unforeseen expenses as it happens to any
project, let’s round it up to 200 million dollars.
The yearly revenue of the
government of Maldives, a proud Muslim country with a crescent on her
flag, is a little over 200 million dollars. This comparison gives an idea
of Muslims’ understanding of their own little world, the so-called ‘Ummah’.
Muslims blatantly claim that all Muslims are brothers (a cult
behavior) but they are reluctant to help other Muslim countries. The
amount of money that will be wasted behind the so-called great mosque
could easily have change the fate of Maldives, if invested on a productive
industry.
Actually, I have a better and
guaranteed moneymaking plan for the Muslims of London. They really need to
lighten up. What’s wrong in being jolly and holy at the same time?
Christians have Santa Clause and rain deer; Hindus have colorful Diwali
and dance festival; now it’s time for Muslims to add some colors to
their religion.
The magical place of Disney world
has many rides for the young and young at heart. Peter Pan is one of those
classic rides where visitors are boarded in a small pirate ship and fly
through the sky, above the glittering lights of London. The flight takes
tourists to the Never Land to meet more mythical characters - the
mermaids, Tick Tock the crocodile, Tinker bell and many more.
What if, Muslims of London make a
theme park instead of the unproductive mosque? This park will be called
‘La La Land’, meaningful at best and the name will also synchronize
the word Allah, the god of Muslims. Just like Peter Pan’s ride,
Mohammad’s ship will fly over a nighttime cityscape of London and slowly
enter a split moon. (Q54:1).

Quran and Ahadith have so much
material for making a theme park that if Walt Disney was alive today, he
would have planned many more rides based on these books. I see a great
potential in ‘Buraq’, the UFO (Unidentified Flying Object) of
Mohammad. (Q17:01; Bukhari-V5, B 58, N 227). The great prophet went on a
journey to Meet Allah, riding this white animal, which was smaller than a
mule and bigger than a donkey. Some Muslims believe this animal’s upper
part was like a woman, which is even better because this fascinating
character will make the ride more adventurous. The ‘Buraq ride’ could
be the longest ride of the world. As Mohammad, while flying on Buraq, went
to all of seven heavens - proposed ride can also go through the same
scenarios.
(Based on Bukhari-V5, B 58, N 227)
Tourists will love watching 90 feet (70 cubit) tall Adam is running on a
treadmill in the first heaven, John and Jesus are reading magazines in the
second and Joseph, watching movie in the third. Finally, seventh heaven
would bring the most excitement - leaves of trees are as big as
elephant’s ear and fruits are bigger than jars, there are four rivers of
which two are hidden and other two are Nile and Euphrates. Mohammad did
not disclose the name of two hidden rivers; it would be good opportunity
to name one river as Thames and another as Amazon, which would give a
universal look of the ‘La La land’. Another interesting scene would be
Mohammad is bargaining with Allah to reduce the number of prayers.
Apostle’s apocalyptic address on
judgment day can be an added feature of the theme park - Allah is rolling
up the sky in his right hand, as if playing with ‘Yo Yo’ (Muslim B39,
N 6703) and non-Muslims are crawling on their face. This area should be
restricted to adults only because people waiting for the judgment will be
naked, barefooted and uncircumcised (Bukhari V4, B55, N 568).
Would not it be wise to spend $200
million behind a productive venture instead of a mosque? Many jobs will be
created and the profit of this project can be used to improve many
people’s life. After taking a few rides of the park, some Muslims may
even find that their faith has become stronger! If Muslims are hesitant to
share the wealth with Kafirs, they could, at least change lives of other
Muslims who are living in ghettos.
Sure enough, all Muslims,
including the so-called moderates will reject my business plan.
In a serious note, Muslims need to
get away from the rigidity of Islamic teachings, breathe fresh air of the
secular world and participate in the Olympic without Islamic influence.
