Hamza and hameed carry the rocket launcher to the roof of the hospital (Gaza central) and fire it in the general direction of Israel with both screaming Allahu Akbar . The next thing they hear is the isreali patrol warning all civilians to evacuate the area around the hospital due to terrorist activities, they remember their mother is also an inpatient in the hospital and still pay no attention to her, they send of their second rocket from the top of the same building, .......until a shell hits killing both of them , and also taking the top floor of the hospital and every body present on the top floor at that time!


Now questions who was wrong?

My answer

Hamza and hameed for putting the lives of everybody in the hospital at risk!

The hospital admin for allowing hamza and hameed carry out their operation w

its not a mentality just the fact, Muslims are barbarians they don't value life not even theirs, why should the Jews value the life of Muslims.? I'm happy about what the Israelites are doing to the Palestinians and don't talk trash to me unless you know what this conflict is really about!

oluafolabi: Over 3,000 plus rockets fired into Israel by Hamas since the beginning of operation protective edge. What if Israel doesn't have the Iron dome? Everyone seems to ignore the fact that Hamas keeps on firing rockets and building tunnels to attack Innocent Isreali civilians whereas Israel gives a notice of attack to civilians even though it will put their soldiers in a disadvantage... Simply because Israel prefers to protect her citizens rather than use them as human shields like Hamas that's why everyone is blaming Israel.

Some people don't know anything about the continuous and never ending disputes between Isreal and Palestine. If Isreal really wants peace they should get their asses outta Gaza and stop using stupid scriptural writings to claim Gaza as their promise land. Of course the Palestinians will fire rockets into Isreal when the Jewish scums keep torturing the Palestine in their own territory.

Israel was never interested in Gaza. what's there in Gaza for them. They entered last month to stop rockets attack.

You can continue encouraging your hamaz brothers to keep firing rockets at Israel. Remember the count, close to 2000 dead Palestinians. Israel doesn't give a FCK about all these protests and demonstrations propagandas. Israel is ready to kick assesses.

Are u aware that everyday Hamas is firing rocket into Isreal and that they v fired over 2000 rockets into Isreal? If not for isreal defensive system by now, Isreal will be burying hundreds of thousands of their pple. For ur information Isreal is only trying to disarm Hamas. Unfortunate Hamas is using their pple as a sheild and since their pple will not kick against their evil deeds they will suffer the consiquences of allowing Hamas to use them as a sheild. Or u want Isreal to fold their hands while their citizens are under daily attack by Hamas? Few days ago UN persuaded both Isreal and Hamas to cease fire, Isreal complied to a cease fire while Hamas continued to fire rockets into Isreal and u want Isreal to siddon look abi.

tintingz: IBO and IGBO are the same just the spelling is different, one of your Igbo brother even agree on that in his article.

I used Igbo and Biafra as case study to clear the conflict of Gaza and Israel.

Remember ojukwu fought for his land(Biafra state) which he didn't achieve, now Gaza people also want their land which Israelis don't want to release.

The only different thing is that "Ibo" is the white man's way of spelling "Igbo", how can we claim pan Africanism when we can not spell our own language properly. That's why Igbo's have to re launch "Nsibidi". And you guys are not helping matter.

Sorry you need to re read your history book. Though Hitler identified as a Christian, he did that for poilitical reasons, in order to garner support from the then Christianity dominated Germany.

Aside from that he generally dismissed Christianity as rubbish. So he was not a "devoted" Christian as you claimed.

mbhs139:

All praise and thanks are due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon His Messenger.

In the first place, let me stress that Islam urges all Muslims to deal kindly and justly with all people. Muslims should have good relations with all people. At school, at work, in your neighborhood, etc., you should be kind and courteous to everyone.

Muslims are allowed to have non-Muslims as friends as long as they keep their own faith and commitment to Islam pure and strong. Allah has clearly forbidden Muslim from fighting those who fight not their faith or drive them out from their homes. Referring to this, Allah forbids you not with regard to those who fight you not for your faith, nor drive you out of your homes, from dealing kindly and justly with them. For Allah loves those who are just. Allah only forbids you with regard to those who fight you for your faith, and drive you out of your homes and support others in driving you out, from turning to them for protection (or taking them as wali). Those who seek their protection they are indeed wrong- doers. (Al-Mumtahinah 60: 8-9).

The Qur'an does not say that non-Muslims cannot be Muslims' friends, nor does it forbid Muslims to be friendly to non-Muslims. There are many non-Muslims who are good friends of Muslim individuals and the Muslim community. There are also many good Muslims who truly and sincerely observe their faith and are very friendly to many non-Muslims at the same time.

Islam teaches us that we should be friendly to all people. Islam teaches us that we should deal even with our enemies with justice and fairness. Allah says in the Qur'an in the beginning of the same Surat Al-Ma’dah: O you who believe! Stand out firmly for Allah as witnesses to fair dealings and let not the hatred of others to you make you swerve to wrong and depart from justice. Be just, that is next to piety. Fear Allah, indeed Allah is well-acquainted with all that you do. (Al-Ma’dah 5:cool

In another place in the Qur'an, Allah Almighty says:

Allah forbids you not with regard to those who fight you not for your faith, nor drive you out of your homes, from dealing kindly and justly with them. For Allah loves those who are just. Allah only forbids you with regard to those who fight you for your faith, and drive you out of your homes and support others in driving you out, from turning to them for protection (or taking them as wali). Those who seek their protection they are indeed wrong- doers. (Al-Mumtahinah 60: 8-9)

Moreover, Allah Almighty has described Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) as "a mercy" to the worlds. He was a sign of Allah's Mercy to all, Muslims as well as non-Muslims. In his kindness and fair treatment he did not make any difference between the believers and non-believers. He was kind to the pagans of Makkah and fought them only when they fought him. He made treaties with the Jews of Madinah and honored the treaties until they broke them.

He (peace and blessings be upon him) is reported to have received the Christians of Najran with kindness in his Masjid in Madinah. They argued with him about Islam, but he returned them with honor and respect. There are many examples from his life that show that he was the friendliest person to all people.

In the verse you quoted, the word "Awliya" is used. It is a plural and its singular is "wali". The correct translation of the word ""wali"" is not "friend" but it is someone who is very close and intimate. It is also used to mean "guardian, protector, patron, lord and master".

In the Qur'an this word is used for God, such as Allah is the Protector (or Lord and Master) of those who believe. He takes them out from the depths of darkness to light… (Al- Baqarah 2:257)

There are many other references in the Qur'an that give this meaning. The same word is also sometimes used in the Qur'an for human beings, such as And whosoever is killed unjustly, We have granted his next kin "wali" the authority (to seek judgement or punishment in this case)... (Al-‘Isra' 17 :33)

The correct translation of the verse in Surat Al-Ma’idah is:

O you who believe! Do not take Jews and Christians as your patrons. They are patrons of their own people. He among you who will turn to them for patronage is one of them. Verily Allah guides not a people unjust. (Al-Ma'dah 5: 51)

It is obvious that Jews patronize the Jews and Christians patronize the Christians, so why not Muslims patronize Muslims and support their own people. This verse is not telling us to be against Jews or Christians, but it is telling us that we should take care of our own people and we must support each other.

In his Tafsir, (Qur’an exegesis) Imam Ibn Kathir has mentioned that some scholars say that this verse (i.e. the one you referred to) was revealed after the Battle of Uhud when Muslims had a set back. At that time, a Muslim from Madinah said, I am going to live with Jews so I shall be safe in case another attack comes on Madinah. And another person said, I am going to live with Christians so I shall be safe in case another attack comes on Madinah. So Allah revealed this verse reminding the believers that they should not seek the protection from others, but should protect each other. (See Ibn Kathir, Al-Tafsir, vol. 2, p. 68)

Muslims are allowed to have non-Muslims as friends as long as they keep their own faith and commitment to Islam pure and strong. If friendship between Muslims and Jews or Christians was forbidden, then why would Islam allow a Muslim man to marry a Jew or Christian woman? It is the duty of Muslims to patronize Muslims. They should not patronize any one who is against their faith or who fights their faith, even if they were their fathers and brothers. Allah says: O you who believe! Take not for protectors (awliya') your fathers and your brothers if they love unbelief above faith. If any of you do so, they are indeed wrong-doers (Al-Tawbah 9: 23).

In a similar way, the Qur'an also tells Muslims that they should never patronize the non-Muslims against other Muslims. However, if some Muslims do wrong to some non-Muslims, it is the Muslims's duty to help the non-Muslims and save them from oppression, that is fight the Muslim until he surrenders from oppressing others[b/] The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said that he himself will defend a Dhimmi living among Muslims to whom injustice is done by Muslims. But Islam also teaches that Muslims should not seek the patronage of non-Muslims against other Muslims. They should try to solve their problems among themselves. Allah Almighty says, [b]Let not the Believers take the unbelievers as their patrons over against the Believers… (Aal-'Imran 3:28)

He Almighty also says: O you who believe! Take not for patrons unbelievers rather than Believers. Do you wish to offer Allah an open proof against yourselves? (An-Nisaa’ 4:144).


Allah Almighty knows best.


So all these Boko Haram, ISIS and Al Qaeda terrorists that have declared Jihad, have never come across this portion of the Quran that you posted?

If you understood my post (which I don't think you did) completely, you will see that I was not trying to refute Hitler's religious affliation with Christianity.

All I was trying to point out was the false message you were trying to peddle in the capacity of stating that Hitler's actions were based on religious sentiments as the case will be with our jihadist brothers. By labelling him a "devout Christain" so it would be similar with the case of "devout muslims".

Hitler and I repeat only used Christianity as a political front. His actions were never religiously inclined, so I think the similarity u were trying to highlight does not exist. If you have time, read again about Hitler and you will find out that he rarely went to Church.
