Muhammad Al-Arifi: “There is no doubt that a person whom Allah enables to
sacrifice his soul, and to fight for the sake of Allah, has been graced with a
great honor. The Prophet Muhammad said that the dust of battle for the sake of
Allah and the smoke of Hell shall never meet in a man’s nose. […]
“Devotion to Jihad for the sake of Allah, and the desire to shed blood, to smash
skulls, and to sever limbs for the sake of Allah and in defense of His religion,
is, undoubtedly, an honor for the believer. […]
“Allah said that if a man fights the infidels, the infidels will be unable to
prepare to fight [the Muslims]. By Allah, the infidel countries today – the U.S.
and its allies – dare to fight the Muslims, to rape their women and turn them
into widows, and to inflict their corruption on Islam and the Muslims on a daily
basis only because they see that the Muslims do not even consider fighting the
infidels and conquering their countries. […]
“The Koranic verses that deal with fighting the infidels and conquering their
countries say that they should convert to Islam, pay the jizya poll tax, or be
killed. If the Muslims had implemented this, we would not have reached the
humiliation in which we find ourselves today.”
