On The Virginia Tech Massacre: 'I as a Muslim, don't feel any sorrow'
Topics: Understanding IslamRusty has a post up on an English language blog by a Sunni Salafi who openly supports al Qaeda in all its manifestations. The poster addresses Muslims, and chides them for feeling sorry for any American that dies. He then goes on to explain that since America's leaders reject Islam, then as Americans - these kuffaar would face the sword. He writes of the Virginia Tech massacre:
And whatever strikes you of disaster - it is for what your hands have earned... (ash-Shura: 30)More at Jawa Report.In other words, whatever sins you have committed O Americans, then expect "Tragedies" upon "Tragedies" from both internally and externally. This University shooting was an example of an internal tragedy as well as the Columbine shooting a few years ago. I, as a Muslim, don't feel any sorrow over what tragedies occur to the Americans, whether internally or externally, whether gargantuan or minute, because the Americans simply deserve a punch in the nose for their internal evils as well as the evils they exported and also because Allah Ta'aala says: And grieve not over them nor be in distress from what they conspire. (an-Naml: 70)
As noted at JR, surely most Muslims in America feel genuinely disgusted about the crime, but it would be nice if groups like CAIR officially condemned Salafism and Khomeinism.
