Coming to a Neighborhood Near You: Islamic Executions

Do Westerners know what they are importing into their countries? In the following video from Syria in 2015, a member of Al-Nusra Front, the Syrian branch of al-Qaeda, publicly executes a woman in the street for violating Sharia (Islamic Law).

The woman, accused of committing adultery, was shot to death in the street after the Jihadi refused her request to see her children. One of her executioners makes sure the men around him understand that he is carrying out the execution (his Islamic duty) in the name of Allah and for the cause of Islam and Islamic Law.

You can hear her Islamic religious leader say: “In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.” (بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ) This phrase is the opening line of many surahs (chapters) in the Qur’an.

“Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds.” (ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ) This is the opening verse of Surah Al-Fatiha, the first chapter of the Qur’an.

“Peace be upon the Master of the Messengers and upon his family and companions.” This phrase is often used in traditional Islamic prayers.

He discusses the Penalties in Islamic Law:

“The reward of those who fight Allah and His Messenger and strive to cause corruption on earth is to be slain.” This part refers to Surah Al-Ma’idah (5:33) in the Qur’an, which discusses the punishment for those who wage war against God and His Messenger and strive to spread corruption on earth. The verse states that such individuals should be killed, crucified, have their hands and feet cut off on opposite sides, or be exiled.

“And we ask God, glory be to Him, to make this punishment for her, an atonement for her sins in this world, and a purification for her.”: This indicates that the punishment being carried out is seen as a way to atone for the woman’s sins and purify her in the eyes of God.

“Because the honor of the Muslims is dear to us, my brothers.” He wants the men to know he is killing her to protect the honor of the Muslim community.

As the Religion of Peace reports, Sharia is based on the Sunnah—Muhammad’s way of life as recorded in the Hadith (traditions). It is an organized body of rules derived from various Quran verses and historical narrations.

Sharia is not optional; it is prescribed for believers (5:48). Although Muslims as individuals often decide which parts to follow or ignore, the Quran (33:36) says that it is not fitting for a believer to choose for themselves (i.e., disregard) any matter already decided by Allah.

Likewise, a government that limits God’s Law in any way is an enemy of Allah and must be fought. The establishment of Sharia is a fundamental objective of every Islamic terror group and religious Muslim. Once an Islamic state is in place, the Quran (9:29) and Sharia (o9.8) make it mandatory for Muslims to fight those Jews and Christians who will not convert or accept inferior (Dhimmi) status.

This reality is left out by proponents of Sharia in the West, who hide behind the cloak of religion and expose only the more benign personal rules (such as those dealing with prayer and hygiene). This is to make it appear as if those with legitimate concerns are religious bigots whose real problem is intolerance for a different set of beliefs about God and worship.

In fact, Sharia is explicitly opposed to religious freedom, freedom of conscience, and the free exchange of ideas. It is violent, openly bigoted toward non-Muslims, discriminatory, and unflinchingly sexist. Large sections deal with the practice of slavery. None of this changes by affixing a “phobia” label or otherwise insulting detractors.

Remember, the goal of these Jihadis is the exact same goal of the Jihadis in the West: they want to implement an Islamic caliphate where Islamic Law (Sharia) rules.

Meanwhile, Western nations continue to import migrants from Syrian and other Islamic nations who are coming to our countries with the religious goal of implementing Islamic Law (Sharia).

As we have seen in Germany for the past several weekends, hordes of Muslims have been marching through the streets and holding rallies, openly telling the West their goal is to implement Sharia (see here and here). Instead of heeding the warning, our media and governments are busy pretending that these are “just extremists.” However, these are religious Muslims who are making their Islamic duties quite clear. When is the West going to believe their words and actions?
