1. Some definitions:

Conspiracy

A secret plan by a group to do something unlawful or harmful.
(Oxford Dictionary of English)

Conspiracy Theory

This is any theory about how an event was enacted, its circumstances, its beneficiaries, or its aims. Evidence has to be presented.

False Flag Attack

A false flag attack is a covert operation that is designed to deceive the public with a certain aim.

Quote:
”Many people are confused as to what a false flag attack entails. A commonly held misperception is that there is no actual incident/event and it was all staged, but this definition is critically flawed, as a false flag attack actually describes a covert operation that is designed to deceive in such a way that the operations appear as though they are being carried out by entities, groups, or nations other than those who planned and executed them.”

Steele, a former CIA clandestine services case officer, had this to say:

“Most terrorists are false flag terrorists, or are created by our own security services. In the United States, every single terrorist incident we have had has been a false flag, or has been an informant pushed on by the FBI. In fact, we now have citizens taking out restraining orders against FBI informants that are trying to incite terrorism. We’ve become a lunatic asylum.”

□ comment: Not ”every single terrorist incident” - how many we don't know, but probably many.

Former CIA Officer: “Every Single Terrorist Attack In US Was A False Flag Attack”

”The reality is that people are participating in fabricated wars based on lies and misinformation sold to the public as truth.”

The first step for people to do is lift your attention from the event which just happened or the circumstances in front of you, your attention is caged. ^fn1

2. False Flag Attacks or Conspiracies in Recent History

Different attacks we know more or less about, the last, no.12, we know the least about.

1 - Attack on Gleiwitz 1939 at German/ Polish border
2 - Pearl Harbour
3 - Murder of US President J F Kennedy
4 - Murder of Senator Robert Kennedy
5 - Attack on US Navy ship in the Gulf of Tonkin, Vietnam 1964
6 - Israeli Attack on USS Liberty 1967
7 - The Bologna bombing(s) around 1980
8 - Russian Apartment-House Bombings 1999

11 - 7/7 Bus bombings in London 2005-07-07
12 - Hotel attacks Mumbai 2008-11-26
13 - Murder of school teacher Samuel Paty in France 2020

These are 13 examples of conspiracies among many more such as the Lavon affair 1954; pointing to the fact that what we have been told is not the truth, and Allah knows best and most!

3. Sources

The cited sources are not the only sources, it is recommended for the reader to investigate further.
NB: We don't blame anyone who does not believe in the existence of conspiracies and false flag attacks. A casual study of history will often reveal how frequent such maneuvers were. When we dig into the nitty-gritty details (i.e. the hard evidence) we'll see conspiracies fall apart. The events of 911 2001 provided such an example: the official government account turned out to be a conspiracy. As long as there is some degree of independent information to be able to sip through the main stream media propaganda wall, patterns may become visible, the conspirators' objectives can be understood, and suspicions confirmed or discarded.

1 - The Gleiwitz incident (German: Überfall auf den Sender Gleiwitz; Polish: Prowokacja gliwicka) was a false flag operation by Nazi forces posing as Poles on 31 August 1939, against the German radio station Sender Gleiwitz in Gleiwitz, Germany on the eve of World War II in Europe.
(gleiwitz incident)

In the days prior to the German invasion of Poland in 1939, the Nazis initiated a campaign designed to persuade the international community that Germany was the victim of Polish aggression. Adolf Hitler intended to use this aggression to justify the invasion.

3 - Witness interviews Kennedy assassination:
Main point: JFK was not shot by 1 gunman, but at least two. → A conspiracy. (One YT video of more than 12 witness interviews, later used in a book by the interviewer - somewhere on Youtube.) But there are a lot of other valid interviews about the JFK/ John F Kennedy assassination. )

Prof. Scott writes: "If history is what is recorded, then deep history is the sum of events which tend to be officially obscured or even suppressed in traditional books and media. Important recent deep events include the political assassinations of the 1960s, Watergate, Iran-Contra, and now 9/11.

”I (David Satter) believe that Vladimir Putin came to power as the result of an act of terror committed against his own people.

Anzorov's suspected contact had been located through an IP address traced back to Idlib (with a Russian-speaking jihadist), a jihadist holdout in northwestern Syria.
France teacher attack: Samuel Paty's killer had 'contact' with jihadist in Syria | wionews.com

… with an as yet unidentified Russian-speaking jihadist … [After the deed - Anzorov] published a video … in which he confessed to the murder. Soon afterwards, he was shot dead by police…
There was evidence the killer had been “directly inspired” by some of their social media posts, verbatim notes of which were found on his phone, the prosecutor, J-F Ricard said.
Samuel Paty's killer 'was in contact with jihadist in Syria' | The Guardian

In an audio message in Russian immediately after the killing, translated by AFP, Anzorov said that he had “avenged the Prophet” whom the teacher had shown “in an insulting way.”
In the recording, which contains several references to the Koran as well as to the Islamic State group, he also said: “Brothers, pray that Allah accepts me as a martyr.”
The message was published on social media in a video, accompanied by two tweets, one showing the victim’s severed head and another in which Anzorov confessed to the murder.…
France probes contact between Syria jihadist and suspect in teacher beheading | The Times of Israel

The problem here is we don't know anything about the acquaintances of Anzorov, nothing about this ”Russian-speaking jihadist” from Idlib. Anzorov, who probably had no gun - he had however a knife, was shot by the police in the street, no questions asked.
From all what we know from previous terror attacks, it is not improbable that the ”Russian-speaking jihadist” was a secret-service agent, posing as a Muslim ”jihadist”, inciting and provoking this horrendous murder. It was unjust and illegal, never mind what Anzorov's supporters in Raqqa might have been saying. If, however, the French secret service listened in to the conversation with the ”Russian-speaking jihadist from Idlib,” then why did they not apprehend him the days before he attacked the teacher?

NB:
The forces from behind will look out for misfits with violent tendencies, sociopaths, with a certain tendency to some or other ideology.

4. FBI Sting operations

There have emerged a considerable amount of documents which provide important details into the FBI program of provoking terrorism (stings).

Quotes from an article by Peter Finn, April 13, 2012:

”A wire-wearing FBI informant named Shaheed Hussain was used in a sting operation against four Muslim men (from Newburgh, N.Y.,) charged with trying to blow up New York synagogues and shoot down military planes, and later convicted on terrorism charges.”

Said the U.S. District Judge Colleen McMahon at the sentencing of the four men:
“I believe beyond a shadow of a doubt that there would have been no crime here except the government instigated it, planned it and brought it to fruition,” She added, “That does not mean there was no crime.”

Example1: Ed Husain's Detrimental Article:

Macron is preparing for intellectual battle against Islamism

From magazine issue: 14 November 2020

□ Comment by LivingIslam.org:

Disclaimer: We condemn all forms of state terrorism (Israeli, Iranian etc.) -- only apologists and bigots would disagree. We also denounce state terrorism and local terrorism (vigilante militants) in general, and terrorising or killing of people (of whatever political, cultural, ethnic or religious background) in particular.

The rule of law, human rights (and in any case the rights of God).

We also condemn dehumanising policies, which reduce people to commodities and numbers, without rights and dignity. This is usually in the interests of international capital, greedy landlords, and the rest.^fn6

Further:
Regarding the title ”Macron is preparing for intellectual battle against Islamism:” This title gives it away, it's Macron's launch of an ALL-OUT attack on Islam and the Muslims.

But this attack has been started years ago, it is not something new (2020), (prohibition of burqa, muslim swimmings suits, then the headscarf in some public buildings, denigrating Muslim activists), however we find that this attack has now entered into a rather serious phase, threatening the whole Muslim community and also the fabric of society.^fn8

Also, no-one will be able to define ”Islamism,” which is rather intended, because this term will be used against any and every Muslim be he devout, following the tenets of this beautiful religion of Islam, or not, and also against Non-Muslims, who in one way or another support humanitarian, civil rights causes.

If it really was an ”intellectual battle” which Macron is preparing for, that would be fine if done with respect, but this is not at all an ’intellectual battle’ when Muslim organisations are to be moulded into propaganda modules for the French secular state,^f12 or when home-schooling for Muslim kids is prohibited. There is no Muslim organisation which would support criminal acts or terrorism, so they must not be blamed, this is counterproductive! If Macron doesn't listen to scores of researchers and experts in the field of terrorism and preventions many of which his government denounces as ’Islamoleftists’^fn10 then he should better ask the British secret service MI5 if terrorism can be fought this way - they'll prove him wrong:

A well established religious identity protects…

French politicians have come to ways end: they demonised the Muslims, allowing dirty publications to slander the best man who has walked the face of the earth (may Allah bless him and grant him peace), among other victims of their hatred and spite and then boasting and republishing these publications again - in the name of free speech. If free speech is really such an elementary part of French society, then let them criticise Israel's unjust and oppressive policies against Palestinians (and other examples)^fn13 - they don't allow it, no free speech there!

Different forms of freedom of speech

The aim of parts of the French elite is to update the colonial narrative and to adapt it to the heartland: ”Become like us and we will give you political agency.”^fn7

This is why they support and even advertise those ugly publications well knowing that some Muslims - for whatever personal reasons - will go over the limit and do something bad, which is exactly what happened.

We are quite certain - and Allah knows best and most - that this is no coincidence, that it was a calculated, sinister move (allowing to republish these publications and advertising them in the name of ’freedom of speech’), while at the same time telling the Muslims that Islam is in crisis, for nothing less than to provoke the intended reaction.

We need to remember that these leaders in high places - with an advanced education, including psychological, sociological, and Machiavellian political schooling - are very aware of what is at stake for themselves and their racist worldview. For their agenda of total control their only alternative appears to be the road of hatred and discrimination of ’the other’ -this is why they pour oil on the fire of Muslim disappointment and outrage. No benevolent leadership there!

By further splitting society into opposing groups, in a time of increasing pressures of globalism, the French elite imagine to hold on to power. The policy is to deflect from structural problems in this European country, France, as we have seen with the ”Green vests” protests.^fn9

So it's not a battle against Islamism, but against Islam itself and the Muslims and in extension against all peace-loving people who need to live in dignity. Whatever repression they will cast on the Muslims, they will not be successful, just as their colonising wars were not successful!

- End of our comment -

Ed Husain's article: Macron is preparing for intellectual battle…

It’s easy to see why so few western leaders have come to Emmanuel Macron’s defence: when they scrutinise extremists, they are accused of being ‘Islamophobes’. Since the French President’s speech last month about Islam in the West, he has been accused — by populist Muslim politicians such as Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Imran Khan, as well as publications that should know better, such as the New York Times — of being anti-Muslim.

Yes, he was frank about the dangers of Islamism, but his speech was also a defence of what he called the ‘Islam of the Enlightenment’.^fn4 Rarely for a political leader, he was able to point not just to the problem but to the alternative too. He understands that Muslims have faced these internal enemies before and won. Those portraying Macron’s speech as anti-Islamic tend not to report the bit where he promised €10 million for research into Islamic culture, history and science, and the creation of a ‘Scientific Institute of Islamology’.

Freedom of expression is not freedom to abuse" in Montreal, Canada on 31 October 2020 (Reuters)
[This picture is not from the article quoted here.]

‘I want France to become a country where we can teach the thought of Averroes and Ibn Khaldun,’ he said. To hear these figures mentioned in a political speech is quite something — it shows Macron is preparing for intellectual battle, invoking the Islamic adversaries of the extremists.

□ comment: No one has ever hindered anyone to ’teach the thought of Averroes and Ibn Khaldun,’ he is depicting the Muslims as some kind of backward people, but there is more philosophy of life in the right finger of a normal Muslim than in your stale, positivistic and / or post-modernist institutions of higher education - and there are exceptions of course.

Ibn Khaldun (1332-1406) was one of the greatest philosophers of the Middle Ages. He rejected the notion of creating a caliphate, and applied Aristotelian methods of thought to write on history, identity, divisions of labour, low taxes, small government, and supply and demand. In naming him, Macron underlined the importance of capitalism to the West. Islamists and the far left are often united in their hatred of capitalism, but Ibn Khaldun shows that this should not be the case for Muslims. After all, for most of his life, the Prophet Mohammed was an Arabian trader. Or, in modern terms, an asset manager.

□ comment: This one chapter is full of weird suppositions: I. K. ”applied Aristotelian methods of thought,” implying that the other scholars of Islam were less ingenious when they applied ’methods of thought’ which were not ’Aristotelian’, implying that ’we, the French government’ know better which ’methods of thought’ have to be applied, otherwise we see you as Islamists, supporters of terrorism. This is the evil thrust of this argument, which Ed Husain supports, it is wrong, counter-productive and a lie.

We abstain commenting on ’Islamism and capitalism’ at this stage and the ’asset manager’ bit.

Ibn Rushd (1126-1198) — a polymath Latinised in the West as Averroes — is the only Muslim to feature in Raphael’s ‘The School of Athens’. His inclusion in the fresco in the Vatican, alongside Pythagoras, Archimedes and other great western thinkers, makes Macron’s point: there is no inherent tension between Islam and western values. Both have an enemy in religious literalism.

□ comment: ”There is no inherent tension between Islam and western values,” 1st. Of course there is a tension, and it is not decreased by baseless generalisations. It also depends which ’Western values’ are meant, if it's equality before the law, or freedom to live your religion then there is no problem.

For Western countries, such as France, Britain, the US, ’Western values’ have the meaning of securing resources and markets through political, social, cultural meddling in Muslim communities and countries, denying rights, propping up cruel dictators, so certainly there are many, not only Muslims, who would feel some ’tension’.^fn11

The intellectual threat to Enlightenment Islam^fn5 came from the East where the Persian theologian Al-Ghazali (d. 1111) took a literalist approach to scripture and attacked Muslim philosophers as irreligious. He advocated bila kaif, literally ‘not asking how’, on questions of God and theology. It was a manifesto for closing the Muslim mind, the divorce of faith and reason.

This is a serious misunderstanding at best: it is definitely not asking how on questions of God and theology in general, but it is not asking how on certain specific expressions in the Quran, which would lead to problems if literally interpreted.

Generally, for those speaking Arabic, the Quran is clear and easy to understand, but there are instances, which need more explanation.^fn1

Averroes penned the Decisive Treatise against Al-Ghazali’s disastrous (sic!) ideas.^fn14 He appealed to scripture to explain how devout Muslims should ask questions and follow evidence. He argued that the pursuit of knowledge was a pious obligation of believers, and religious literalism a dangerous mode of human interpretation. Reason, he wrote, deepened the meanings of scripture.^fn2

His work influenced Aquinas and Maimonides, and the Enlightenment was an advance of the scientific method and the primacy of independent human reason as defended by Averroes.

Today’s Islamic world is mired by the legacy of Al-Ghazali^fn3 and the rejection of Aristotelian philosophy. That way of unscientific thinking — literalism and dogma — is inimical to the values of the West shaped by the Enlightenment. The problem is that today many Muslims have been dragged into a new Dark Age of fanaticism, unable to accept modernity. Averroes, Ibn Khaldun and the Enlightenment offer the way out.

In Britain, we are worryingly blind to the dangers of the narrative of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas and their allies. Boris Johnson is a Renaissance man who debated the superiority of the Greeks with Mary Beard at night while he was mayor of London by day. To take on this debate in support of the Enlightenment is to join Macron in defence of civilisation. It is to remind the West again of who we are and confidently invite Muslims to come on board. Time is not on our side.

Footnotes

[fn1] This is a serious misunderstanding at best: it is definitely not asking how on questions of God and theology in general, but it is not asking how on certain specific expressions in the Quran, which would lead to problems if literally interpreted. The Quran can be rationally understood in many instances, but not in all. F ex in the figurative? Speech 7 in verses where Allah's hands are mentioned.

Had he been sincere he could have simply checked up on Wikipedia which states about bila kaif correctly:

Literally, "without how" but figuratively as "in a manner that suits His majesty and transcendence". It was a way of resolving theological problems in Islam over apparent questioning in āyāt (verses of the Quran) by accepting without questioning.

An example is the apparent contradiction between references to God having human characteristics (such as the "hand of God" or the "face of God") and the concept of God as being transcendental.

What is important here when reading and pondering on the text has nothing to do with giving up on asking questions, but to guard the mind from falling into the trap of rational interpretation (alone), when human ratio or reason is incapable of understanding what is beyond itself.
That would mean to place God under the property of one’s own reason in respect of His own Self - high indeed is God ecalted above that!
SDG337

↩

[fn2] But reason is not at all excluded from the Islamic epistemology, such as the interpretation of the Quran, he is building up a straw man here - very bad article, the author is not the only one doing it.

The Quran commands us to ponder about the verses, to think deeply about the message, as if Muslims had to wait years until Ibn Rushd (Averroes) told them how to think!

Religious literalism was only one way to interpret the Quran, and never the mainstream interpretation - in pre-modern times as well as today. This article proves to be such a narrow way of describing the 1400 years long hermeneutics of Islam, ignoring most of the Islamic tradition over the centuries, which renders this article rather useless. ↩

[fn3] Today’s Islamic world is NOT mired by the legacy of Al-Ghazali, instead it has a dilemma with the rejection of Al-Ghazali's thought, who in any case was one of the mujaddid (revivers) of Islam. ↩

[fn4] Re: ”A defence of what he called the ‘Islam of the Enlightenment’” So now we are told to believe in the benevolent intentions of Mr. Macron and his ’laïcistic’ clique in their endeavour is only to ’improve Islam’ and to shed some light into it (’Enlightenment’).

First of all Islam already has its light, and this is the light of Prophet Muhammad (may Allah bless him and grant him peace)

Secondly, it is the prerogative of the Muslim community and their scholars to interpret Islam for their situation in postmodern society, no-one else.

Thirdly, Enlightenment ideas did not hinder France only a few years after the French revolution to wage wars all over Europe - into Russia, or against Egypt. Then France went further to colonise North-Africa, incl. Algeria, where over 1 millions Muslims, Algerians were killed in their struggle for freedom and independence: Not much égality, liberté, fraternité there!
↩

[fn5] Re: ”The intellectual threat to Enlightenment Islam” - What Ed Husain and many other non-Muslims don't like to accept is that Islam does not have a subsection called ’Enlightenment Islam.’ It's either Islam - living according to Allah's guidance and following the practice of His Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace), or it is something made-up, moulded according to the nihilism and confusion of the present day.

Our concept of intellect is far more comprehensive than what is usually understood: far more than mental exercises or rational conclusions, cut-off from the Divine. (See fn6) ↩

Massive Home Demolitons Campaign

Since Trump's visit to Jerusalem in 2020 and his encouragement of the apartheid occupier Israel things have turned from bad to worse, f ex in East Jerusalem.

House demolitions every day - there is a concerted effort to evict as many Palestinians from East-Jerusalem as possible.

United Nations UNOCHA @ochaopt estimates that over 800 Palestinians are at-risk of forced eviction in East Jerusalem, due to cases brought before Israeli [partisan] courts, primarily by Israeli settler groups. via @KhuloodBadawi 20201215

Almost 1,000 Palestinians made homeless this year due to house demolitions in East Jerusalem, West Bank and Al-Naqab. https://twitter.com/falasteen47/status/1326649806756966400

#FreePalestine, via Robert Inlakesh @falasteen47

According to statistics from B'TSelem, by 2020-11-03 for 2020
340 Palestinians in Jerusalem were made homeless, incl. about 180 children. This doesn't make any headlines in the "undivided capital of Jerusalem”¹

The Zionist actors claim that Palestinians built their houses without a 'permit.'

This is just another sign of their inhumane treatment of the other and as such violates the Balfour declaration² for the installment of a 'Jewish' state in Palestine. This inhumane policy has its roots in Jewish exceptionalism³ and chosen-ness.⁴

First of all many are old buildings where people have lived long before the initiators of Zionism were born, so of course they have no 'permit'.

Secondly, in 99% of cases Palestinians don't have a permit, because they wont get a permit, how much they may try. The 'Jewish state' does not give building permits to Palestinians, guess why!

When the whole world is deaf and silent then the world will see big problems.

Also massive destruction of Beduin homes in the Negev region recently (80 persons made homeless in one go).

…and the whole world is ignoring it, esp. those in responsible positions, in the EU to start with!

The Balfour declaration, which was a bad document (bad for one part of humanity and good - in the short run - for another part of humanity) and lead to so much injustice and suffering had from the start this clause:

It stipulated that “it being clearly inderstood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine…” The Balfour Declaration/ Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs

Civil and religious rights: today we would call this human rights. Now compare this with what is happening on the ground in Palestine and Israel! ↩

[3]
Jews (i.e. Jews for Zionism) must emancipate themselves from their chosen-ness, that racially oriented sense of privilege and exceptionalism. ↩

[4]
from which Jews everywhere should free themselves. It is a misunderstanding of their own scripture… Prophet Jesus - the blessings and peace of Allah upon him - scolded the Jews for it: check The Bible, New Testament; the Quran.

The meaning of chosen-ness is that Allah - God ushers spiritual powers (barakat ), blessings on those who follow His commands, not on people who have a lineage in some cultural expression or religious group. ↩

1. Lahabism (Islamophobia) is Hatred

Clearly Lahabism (Islamophobia) is hatred of Islam, nothing less than hatred of the heavenly message from God, is not new! We prefer to use the term “Lahabism” for the rather vague term “Islamophobia.”^fn5 Also: While Islam is attacked from many quarters almost all the time (Islamophobia industryⁿ²), this is a sign that it is significant and important. These attacks are futile as Islam is based on truth and truth cannot be eliminated.ⁿ³

Quran:
{Those who hate what Allah has revealed…}
47-26

This hate stems from ignorance about the way of Islam - which is more than a ’religion’, a hate which has to do with pride: how can anyone come to us and know more about the meaning of life?! They deny the divine messages, the noble and pure prophets and not the least even the Creator of the Heavens ond the earth. Despite what the detractors may invent: Islams originates from divine truth, from the Supreme Merciful God of all and everything.

2. Humanity Is One

The first problem with this is not only some problems for Muslims when they are seen as followers of this religion instead to see them as human beings with Islam as religion. Also the worst fascists are first of all human beings and all have to be treated as such.

What concerns hatred, Islamic tradition informs the Muslims to hate the person’s bad action(s), and not the person himself (or herself).

Some members of our Muslim community have committed crimes, murder of innocent people. This is very bad and cannot be justified or excused.

However it may be, many if not most of those ’terrorist attacks’ which we have seen over the years, have been instigated or directed by the forces from behind, for political reasons.^fn4

The prophetic saying:
”None of you believes until he wants for his brother what he would want for himself.”
Reported by Anas Ibn Malik from Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. ”Our scholars who understood ’brotherhood’ in this Hadith … to include all of humanity, i.e., the brotherhood of mankind.”
Living Islam - Islamic Tradition: The Meaning of Universal Brotherhood

3. Blaming the Lot

But it is a great injustice to blame the whole Muslim community for the deeds of individuals. No matter the words or Islamic symbols they use. They do not represent the teachings of Islam, as understood by 14 centuries of Muslim scholars and saints or as understood by the generality of Muslims.

We must not fall back into old patterns of collective guilt and stereotyping, ^fn2 otherwise the whole of society risks being impacted by division and hatred.

Disclaimer of terror attacks: Misrepresenting Islam 01

At the same time, we cannot turn a blind eye at the ongoing war-mogering and oppression against Muslim countries and communities in the last decades up until today, and in Palestine and Kashmir for much longer.^fn9

4. Mechanisms of Provocation

Criminals use all kinds of excuses and rationalisations^fn3 for their evil deeds. This is a well-known fact. The reasons vary, incentives for crimes stem from some twisted love of power, ~ of money, ~ of politics, ~ of sexuality, or even ‘religious’ reasons.

Covering crimes with ‘religious’ justifications is not a new phenomenon.^fn10 Just as the justification of money (”he did it for money”) does not mean that the fault is with money, or the justification of sexuality (”he did it for sexuality”) does not mean that it is the fault of sexuality, that the crime was committed, the same concerns religion, or with Islam:

It is not the fault of Islam, when crimes are committed in its name!

In difficult situations, where members of one group or religion are being discriminated or oppressed (or where they perceive themselves as such), and where social, economic injustices lead to inner tensions in the social/ religious group,
and where these tensions are often worsened by the fact that many Muslim communities and countries are object of ongoing military attacks^fn11

→ all these factors form a real risk that some militant individuals will go overboard and ’take the law in their own hand’, while thinking they are in the right. These are the mechanisms of social discrimination, provocation and oppression.

A non-Muslim criminal without references to any religious reasons for his crime will not excuse his evil deed and rationalise^fn3 it with religious slogans, because he is informed by his non-religious or secular background, which is materialistic, non-religious etc.

A non-Muslim criminal with a Christian background will however refer to religious justifications.^fn12

A Muslim criminal^fn6 will use religious slogans to justify his crime because these are the references he will evoke, coming from his socio-religious background, but this justification is still nothing more than a cover or rationalisation for the evil act, the cover (Islam) is not the cause of his crime (murder). The cause is something else - hurt feelings, hurt pride, a feeling of despair etc.^fn8 -, but it is definitely neither ‘religion’ nor ‘Islam’.

But the generality or majority in a non-Muslim country will usually not want to draw these distinctions and only accept ready-made explanations. They will not ask: Why are we not told more about the event, who would benefit from it, what would be a possible the agenda behind all this?

5. Missing out on the best promise

The second problem with turning one's back on Islam, it is turning away from God and the prophetic message, and consequently turning away from a life in harmony and inner peace with the Creator and Sustainer of all ^fn7, although there will still be some kinds of temptations, and hardships, but not darkness and despair.

May Allah protect us all from arriving at a point where we would miss out on the best promise ever given to man.

6. The Situation after terrorist attacks

With several terrorist attacks in France and Austria recently (2020) - which we condemn^fn1, what is the reality of the situation for Muslims and non-Muslims in the world?

In his Friday sermon - Khuṭbah: Challenging The Islamophobia Narrative | Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi the shaykh compares the similarities of today's situation with the one in the 1920s and 1930s in Germany.

Difficult economic situation in society, worsening splitting of society in groups, propaganda lies about the minority group, increasing discriminating measures against the minority group, question: where does it stop?

7. Othering the Muslims

Othering of the Muslims and/ or other minorities, such as Africans, means there is a constant attention towards them, showing them as ”totally different.” Even if there are differences, there is no reason to keeping aloof from them. Instead there is a divine wisdom in the difference of this creation as Allah says in the holy Quran:

{O mankind, indeed We have created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another. Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you. Indeed, Allah is All-Knowing and All-Aware.}
Sura 49-13

This ’othering of Muslims’ has become a conscious and planned effort by what is aptly called the Islamophobia Industry:

8. Islamophobia is a Zionist/ Israel tool

The Apartheid state of Israel created an international movement against Islam. It ”instrumentalizes or weaponizes Islamophobia as a strategic tool to legitimize and justify the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in the territories under Israel’s control, as well as to support Israeli aggression towards other mostly Muslim countries in the region.

”Promoting and fostering Islamophobia internationally helps to increase and solidify international support for the Zionist genocidal project. It is therefore treated as an important tool of Israeli and Zionist international influence.^fn17
The Israeli Government Role in Promoting Islamophobia Internationally by Paul Larudee, 2018

9. Islamophobia is a multimillion-dollar industry

9.1 Islamophobia industry and terror against Muslims.

“It is an entire industry of itself. There are people making millions of dollars per year from promoting Islamophobia. They often present themselves as experts on Islamic affairs when they are not,” Wilfredo Amr Ruiz, a spokesman for CAIR, told Al Jazeera.

“They have fuelled an environment of distrust among the American public by claiming that Muslims do not belong to the American community and that they could never be loyal citizens.”

Ruiz said that Islamophobia has posed two main dangers: a rise in hate crimes and anti-Islamic legislation. “For example, in the last year alone in Florida, there has been a 500 percent increase in hate crimes against Muslims. Mosques have been vandalised and there have been a number of bomb threats towards Islamic groups.

“Religious discrimination is illegal. There has to be legal procedures that can address that.” Report: Islamophobia is a multimillion-dollar industry | Human Rights News | Al Jazeera 2016

9.2 Islamophobia - Lahabism's violent consequences: The case of Breivik

How Islamophobia - Lahabism turns violent. There are many examples of harassment and attacks against Muslims and of structural discrimination^fn15, here two recent examples. As can be seen in Breivik's case not only Muslims are victims to this bigotry.^fn13

As documented in ”The Roots of the Islamophobia Network in America” by By Wajahat Ali, 2011, one chain of satanic inspirations lead from figures such as misinformation expert Gaffney, or Geller and Spencer, who co-founded the organization ’Stop Islamization of America’ → to US politicians, such as former Speaker of the House of Representatives Newt Gingrich → with the generous aid of seven charitable groups, which provided $42.6 million to Islamophobia think tanks between 2001 and 2009 (this has to be updated for 2020…) → Breivik’s manifesto → Breivik's self-described “gruesome but necessary” actions.

On July 26, Breivik told the court that violence was “necessary” to save Europe from Marxism and “Muslimization.” In his 1,500-page manifesto, which meticulously details his attack methods and aims to inspire others to extremist violence, Breivik vows “brutal and breathtaking operations which will result in casualties” to fight the alleged “ongoing Islamic Colonization of Europe.”

9.3 The case of the New Zealand attack on Muslims

”The US-led war on terror created an industry out of Islamophobia. The Islamophobia Industry: how US…; M I Mohamed Taib, 2019

”In doing so – as the slaying of 50 Muslim worshippers in New Zealand shows – it sowed the seeds for a terror of its own: white supremacy.

”It was a wake-up call to the world: the danger posed by far-right extremism is real. On March 15, when a self-confessed white supremacist armed with a semi-automatic weapon stormed two mosques in New Zealand, Christchurch, killing 50 worshippers in a spray of bullets, there could be no doubting the sole target of his hatred – Muslims.

”Not only was this demonstrated in the gruesome video he live-streamed during his rampage, but – as if to avoid any doubt – he circulated to the world a manifesto in which he revelled in the “anti-Islamic motivation” behind the attacks. A “white genocide” was taking place, his diatribe went as he evoked the centuries-old battle of Islam versus the West.

”This was Islamophobia stretched to its violent and bloody conclusion.

10. The Myth of the 'Hidden Agenda'

People are told (by agents of dubious news - f ex the Murdoch tabloids) that "Muslims want to change your way of life."^fn16

These are ”beliefs underpinning ’nativist’ ideology with its theories of replacement (of whites by Muslims, Latinos and others)… (what is however) rarely mentioned, (is) that the whites themselves achieved their dominant status by…” ^fn14
Institutional racism and the rise of anti-Muslim attitudes | The Guardian

Regarding corruption, immorality, greediness, criminality: Yes, of course we want to change such things, resolve those problems, and we participate with all forces of good-will to improve our societies, to benefit all, while answering the challenges in our time.

Any change will only happen by God’s permission and guidance, following our noble Prophet - the blessings and peace of Allah upon him - and with the majority of people standing up for what is right and good.

11. Conclusion

All this being said and written - we rely on Allah, Who has the sole power and knowledge over everything (may His Majesty be exalted).

However the promise of Allah is the true promise: Islam will be strengthened and prosper because it is based on Truth.

Allah says

{This day I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favour upon you and have approved for you Islam as religion.}
5-3

[fn5] On the term Islamophobia or Lahabism

We prefer to use the term “Lahabism” for the rather vague term “Islamophobia” (like a spider phobia?). Lahabism recalls the mindless hatred that those filled with kufr (disbelief) have for the Oneness and Uniqueness of God (tawhīd), dating back to Abū Lahab in the time of the Prophet ﷺ.

[fn9] When Islam Is Under Attack:
”The hostility towards Muslim countries further intensified after the Cold War and then 9/11: in a shockingly short period, the world saw the destruction of Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, and Yemen under the pretense of the new unseen enemy. This ’War on Terror’ was then tactfully converted into an all-out war on Islam, waged on many fronts, including ideological, economic, and political. It is a timeless war with no end in sight.”

[fn12] Much like al-Qaeda and the Islamic State, right-wing terrorists — who often refer to themselves as “Soldiers of Odin,” “Phineas Priests,” or “Army of God” — are inspired by their interpretations of religious concepts and scripture to lash out and kill in God’s name.

For example, in 1996, the Spokane Bank Robbers left business cards with a Celtic Cross and references to Yahweh (Hebrew for “God”), Obadiah 18 (e.g. Old Testament scripture in the Bible), and “His Wrath” at the scene of bank robberies and bombings. They believed they were literally carrying out God’s work by attacking banks, an abortion clinic and the local newspaper office.

[fn14] In the thick of the morally degraded principles and beliefs underpinning “nativist” ideology with its theories of replacement (of whites by Muslims, Latinos and others) which dominate contemporary alt-right thinking is the uncomfortable fact, rarely mentioned, that the whites themselves achieved their dominant status (in Australasia, the Americas, Africa and beyond) by slaughtering (preferably) or replacing (pushing back, infecting with disease, herding in reserves or expulsion) the original “natives”, the indigenous population (How Australia has evolved into a haven for racists, 18 March).

Then, after a second such conference in 1984, “both US neocons and Zionists worked together to convince Western policy makers that ‘Islamic terrorism’ would replace communism as the West’s next great threat. By tying Islam to terrorism, neocons would gain political cover for their imperialistic ambitions in the Middle East, and Zionists would benefit from garnering Western sympathies for their struggle against Palestinian ‘terrorism.’” ↩
