Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has called the movie, Innocence of Muslims, "disgusting and reprehensible", "inflammable and despicable"?
Is that so? I guess it is. After
watching the movie, I too found it disgusting, despicable, reprehensible
and offensive. Although this is no academy award winning movie to say
the least, the acts of Muhammad as seen in the movie are indeed
horrifying. The only thing Clinton didn't probably realize is that the
movie, disgusting and horrifying as it is, is a rather a true portrayal
of the life of Prophet Muhammad, a monster of history.
1) The movie would arouse disgust for
the way Muhammad is shown to murder Jewish chieftain Kinana of Khayber
in front of his 17-year-old wife, then taking her as his sex-slave. But
that was a fact as sacred Islamic texts tell us. In fact, Kinana was
tortured by setting a fire on his chest to force him to reveal the
location of the treasure under his care, and after the treasure was
found, he was murdered by beheading. But in the movie, Muhammad’s
cruelty is somewhat softened by simply showing Kinanah being killed by
stab on the neck with a sword. Of course, Kinana’s beautiful young wife
Safiyah taken to bed by Muhammad and raped on the same night. Here is
the story (Sahi Buchari Hadith #143, page-700):
“Sulaiman Ibne
Harb… Aannas Ibn Malek (ra) narrated, “in the war of Khayber after the
inhabitants of Banu Nadir were surrendered, Allah’s apostle killed all
the able/adult men, and he (prophet) took all women and children as
captives... Among the captives Safiyya Bint Huyy Akhtab was taken by
Allah’s Apostle as booty whom He married after freeing her and her
freedom was her Mahr.”
For a man, believed to be the final and
finest prophet of God by the world’s 1.6 billion Muslims, committing
murder of a man in such barbaric manner and then raping the poor man’s
wife on the same night is despicable and reprehensible indeed, probably
more than that.
2) The movie also shows the Prophet of
Islam murdering a 120-year-old woman by tearing her apart by camels for
daring to defy him. Nothing could be more disgusting and horrifying that
this. But that’s what happened in reality as sacred Islamic texts
inform us. Here’s the story from al-Tabari, VIII:96:
"A raiding party led
by Zayd set out against Umm in Ramadan. During it, Umm suffered a cruel
death. Zyad tied her legs with rope and then tied her between two
camels until they split her in two. She was a very old woman. Then they
brought Umm's daughter and Abdallah to the Messenger. Umm's daughter
belonged to Salamah who had captured her. Muhammad asked Salamah for
her, and Salamah gave her to him."
3) Mrs. Clinton should be commended for
calling the movie disgusting, despicable, reprehensible and offensive,
given it shows Prophet Muhammad lusting for his adopted son's wife, and
abolishing the noble tradition of adoption forever in Islam in order to
marry her. The fact is: This is also what happened in reality, and
that’s what should be deemed disgusting and horrifying. Here’s the
story:
The name of Muhammad’s adopted son was
Zayd bin Harithah, who, upon adoption by pagan Muhammad ca. 696 AD,
became Zayd bin Muhammad. Zayd’s wife was Zaynab bint Jahsh. The Arabs
regarded an adopted son as their son. Thus, sexual relations with the
wife of someone’s adopted son was deemed incest and disgusting. However,
when Muhammad took Zaynab as his wife, raising disgust and criticism
amongst the Arabs, he came up with a solution to kill the criticism, at
least within his own community, by banning the noble custom of adoption
in Islam. So, he brought out the following verse (Quran 33:37):
“And when thou
saidst unto him on whom Allah hath conferred favour and thou hast
conferred favour: Keep thy wife to thyself, and fear Allah. And thou
didst hide in thy mind that which Allah was to bring to light, and thou
didst fear mankind whereas Allah hath a better right that thou shouldst
fear Him. So when Zeyd had performed that necessary formality (of
divorce) from her, We gave her unto thee in marriage, so that
(henceforth) there may be no sin for believers in respect of wives of
their adopted sons, when the latter have performed the necessary
formality (of release) from them. The commandment of Allah must be
fulfilled.”
In the verse, Islamic God states that
this revelation is not to apply only to the case faced by Muhammad, but
for the Muslim community at all times. Therefore, by bringing in this
verse, Muhammad not only destroyed a very noble age-old Arab custom, but
also legalized his lust for his daughter-in-law, which the Muslim
society can practice for eternity. Disgusting indeed!
4) The movie shows the prophet of Islam
ordering Jews and Christians to convert to Islam or pay the jiza tax
(extortion) or be murdered. And it should be called disgusting,
despicable, reprehensible and offensive, because that is what happened
in reality. This is what the Islamic God says about it in the Quran
(9:29):
“Fight those who do
not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what
Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth,
out of those who have been given the Book, until they pay the tax in
acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection.”
5) The movie shows the prophet of Islam
ordering his followers to murder kafir men, enslave their their women
and children, sell the elderly women and children for horses, camels and
arms for future war and use the younger captive women as sex-slaves.
Nothing can be more disgusting, despicable, reprehensible and offensive
than this. And the sad thing is: that is exactly what happened as sacred
Islamic scriptures and texts inform us:
- Quran 8:41: “And know that out of all the booty that ye may
acquire (in war), a fifth share is assigned to Allah, - and to the
Messenger, and to near relatives, orphans, the needy, and the
wayfarer, - if ye do believe in Allah and in the revelation We sent
down to Our servant on the Day of Testing, - the Day of the
meeting of the two forces. For Allah hath power over all things.”
Quran 33:27: “And He made you heirs of their lands, their houses, and
their goods, and of a land which ye had not frequented (before). And
Allah has power over all things.” [Merciful Allah asked Prophet
Muhammad to confiscate entire properties of surrendered Jews] (Banu
Qurayza)
- Quran 8:67: “It is not for any prophet to have captives until
he hath made slaughter in the land. Ye desire the lure of this
world and Allah desireth (for you) the Hereafter, and Allah is
Mighty, Wise.” (Allah insisting Prophet to kill all the prisoners,
and should not keep any surrendered prisoners alive until He
(Prophet) occupied entire Arabia.
- Quran 8:17: “It is not ye who Slew them; it is God; when thou
threwest a handful of dust, it was not Thy act, but God’s…..”
(Allah said, the killing of surrendered soldiers were done by the
wish of Allah)
There are many more things in the movie,
shown to be committed by the prophet of Islam, will be found
disgusting, despicable, reprehensible and offensive by civilized people.
But the sad reality is also that those are no fictions if the Quran,
hadiths and biographies of Prophet Muhammad, which have been held as the
sacred texts of Islam by Muslims for the past 1400+ years, are to be
believed in. And the movie should be deemed truly disgusting,
despicable, reprehensible and offensive, because such horrifying
atrocities and immoralities were committed by the prophet of Islam,
thereby perpetuating in Islamic societies.
In sum: Yes, Hillary is correct. This
movie is disgusting, despicable, and reprehensible. And despite poor
production, Mrs Clinton and every American, indeed all civilized people
of the world, should watch it and condemn the fact that Muhammad
committed those barbaric atrocities and immoralities. Civilized people
of the world must also unite in condemnation of the Muslim Brotherhood,
Egyptian President Mursi, and the wider Muslim community for not
condemning those horrible and immoral actions of their prophet. They
should be condemned even more strongly for not only attacking the movie
despite true portrayal of the life of Muhammad, but for inciting the
Muslim masses for attacking American embassies and killing Americans,
who had absolutely nothing to do with the making of the movie. It’s also
unfortunate, if not disgusting, that President Obama and Hillary
Clinton, as if in compliance with the Sharia Law, asked Google to review
its policies regarding the movie, that is, telling Google to shut down
the Youtube sites showing the movie, thereby violating the First
Amendment of the US Constitution.
