Zakat: Terror Financing Mechanism?

The vast majority of westerners have never heard of Zakat. Zakat is the third pillar of Islam and is mandatory for ALL MUSLIMS to donate 2.5% of their personal income to Islamic charities, and Shariah compliant businesses have to donate 2 – 6% of their profits to Islamic charities as designated by the Shariah advisory board that oversees the company.

 

According to Shariah Finance Watch:

         Zakat: One of the 5 pillars of Islam.

         1/8 of every dollar goes to Jihadist.

         Shariah Compliant Finance 2-6% of companies profits go to Islamic “Charities”.

         Zakat payments have very often gone to charities that support terrorist organizations.

 

There are many organizations all over the world that are funded by Zakat and have dedicated themselves to forcing the entire world to submit to Shariah law. One such organization is Hizb Ut-Tahrir.

Hizb Ut-Tahrir: Shariah Takes Precedence over U.S. Constitution

 

         According to Imam Abu Atallah; He Promises to Fight "Until Islam Becomes Victorious or We Die in the Attempt“

         Hizb ut-Tahrir aims to restore the Caliphate that existed during the Ottoman Empire in Turkey.

         According to Hizb ut-Tahrir, the world's social and economic problems will not be fixed until the world is governed by Shariah and the government controls all major industries.

 

Mr. Atallah can be seen below attesting to the statements above.

 

 

Hizb Ut-Tahrir has a reported 1.5 million members and are active in over 40 countries to spread Islam and promote Shariah law.

As a consequence of accepting Shariah law a country would be restricted in the following financial matters, as well as a host of others, but for this article we will consintrate on the financial aspect of Shariah law.

 

         Lenders would no longer be able to charge interest, which one speaker decried as a "poisonous concept." Charity, or Zakat, was advertised as the way to alleviate "economic inequality."

         "Secular capitalism has made me devalue my skin" and "has kept my family in ghettos," said one speaker, an African-American who went on to blame it for the fact that he smoked marijuana and his grandmother played the lottery.

 

         Capitalism, he added, is a form of economic "terrorism" and "causes us to be sent to mental hospitals."

         HT's alumni include 9/ll mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the late Iraqi terrorist leader Abu Musab Zarqawi and would-be Hamas suicide bombers, and the group's pro-jihadist rhetoric has led critics to label it an:

 “CONVEYOR BELT FOR TERRORISTS."

 

Shariah Law Abolishes the US Constatution:

In Islam all other religions, laws, politics, and ways of life have to submit to Shariah law. Shariah trumps all things including the US Constatution, the Bill of Rights, the Womens movement, anything that conflicts with Shariah is replaced with Shariah law. Below you can see how this would work.

To get an idea of how this works let me give you an example from recent news out of Israel.

Shin Bet: Qatar sheikh funding Hamas activities in Jerusalem:

Qatar-based Sheikh Yousuf Qaradawi has allocated $21 million to a charity funded by Hamas to allow the Palestinian group to buy land and set up infrastructure in Jerusalem, Shin Bet chief Yuval Diskin said on July 19th 2009. Qaradawi, an 82-year-old Egyptian-born Muslim scholar with strong links to the Muslim Brotherhood, is a keen supporter of suicide bombings in Israel, which he describes as "martyrdom operations”.

Who is Sheikh Yousuf Qaradawi:

         Founder of IslamOnline.

         Shariah advisor to several international financial institutions, including Bank Al Taqwa, which was shut down several years ago for routing money to several Jihadist terrorist groups.

         Endorser of wife beating.

         Banned from entering the US and UK due to his ties to terrorist organizations.

         Head of the Union of Good charity, which has been identified as an:

TERRORIST FINANCIER THROUGH ZAKAT.

 

President Obama on Zakat:

When President Obama visited Egypt and made is hour long speech to the Muslim world he made some starting comments.

“For instance, in the United States, rules on charitable giving have made it harder for Muslims to fulfill their religious obligation. That is why I am committed to working with American Muslims to ensure that they can fulfill zakat.” President Barack Hussein Obama

To verify that the statement above is true and correct please watch president Obama himself below.

Below is an excerpt from Shariah Finance Watch in their take on Obama’s speech:

We’re still shaking our heads in disgust over Obama’s pledge to ease the scrutiny on zakat payments to Islamic charities in the speech he delivered in Cairo.

Moreover, President Obama is–at best–exaggerating the impact of law enforcement scrutiny of Islamic charities on the ability of Muslims to fulfill their zakat obligations. Muslims can fulfill their zakat obligations simply be donating to their local mosque. Why is President Obama suggesting that efforts to crack down on terrorism financing prevent this, when nothing could be further from the truth?

Islamic charities, on the other hand, are declared zakat-eligible by Shariah scholars, many of whom are committed jihadists. And there’s the problem. Zakat payments have very often gone to charities that support terrorist organizations. VERY often.

Though we’re not absolutely certain what the exact motivation for this move by Obama is, we have a few ideas…

1. The most likely reason for this announcement and pending change in policy is that the Sauds complained loud and long. You see, even though many pointed out that the Bush family had too many close ties to these monsters, on Bush’s watch the Justice department did actually manage to finger two of Saudi Arabia’s largest charities for sending money to terrorist groups. One of these was the Union of Good, operated out of Saudi Arabia by none other than Sheikh Qaradawi, who is of course banned from entering the US and the UK due to his longstanding, close ties to terrorist organizations. This is the same character who referred to Shariah-Compliant Finance as “Jihad with money” in a 2006 interview with the BBC…(at least the guy was honest we suppose.).

The Union of Good is sort of like an Islamic United Way, an umbrella group for–count ‘em–53 charities. In fact, when you add up all these Union of Good charities with other charities identified as terrorist entities, by our most recent count, you come up with 80 Islamic charities tied to terrorism.

In other words, these aren’t isolated incidents or cases of mistaken identity or simple errors.

The Sauds have been caught red-handed and they don’t like losing face. So, they have taken advantage of Obama’s shameless obsequiousness and pressured him into easing up on them.

No doubt, that pressure was accompanied by the usual meaningless assurances not to support “terrorism,” without, of course, actually defining what “terrorism” means.

2. It is also possible that Obama and his handlers don’t actually realize what zakat really is and how it works and they are just responding to requests from Muslim Brotherhood organizations in the US, such as CAIR and ISNA, which are getting pinched by the scrutiny of Islamic charities. (Ironically, Obama wants to take away the charitable deductions for Americans who give the most, but given the zakat requirements set out to faithful Muslims in Shariah, that scheme won’t have as great of an impact on Islamic charities as it does on other charities. Hmmm…)

3. The third possibility is that Obama and his handlers know what zakat is and still want to go ahead with reducing scrutiny of the Islamic charities. This possibility, of course, is not mutually exclusive of number 1 above.  It is a little hard to believe that anyone could be completely ignorant of zakat and the role Islamic charities play in funding terrorism in making such an announcement in such an important policy speech. Heck, just two weeks ago, The Wall Street Journal published an article about how the Taliban continue to receive financial support from Muslims around the world through Islamic charities!

We won’t speculate about Obama’s motivation here, but relying on assurances from “the Muslim world” not to support terrorism is bad policy because Shariah mandates that Muslims donate zakat to charities and it also mandates that a portion of those zakat donations go to Jihad.

Under Shariah law there are several approved destinations for zakat.

The most authoritative source for such information is a book which is available on Amazon called “The Reliance of the Traveler, A Classic Manual of Islamic Sacred Law.” That book has a whole section devoted to the rules of zakat, including “THE EIGHT CATEGORIES OF RECIPIENTS.”  On page 272, section h8.17, one category is labeled:

THOSE FIGHTING FOR ALLAH

The seventh category is those fighting for Allah, meaning people engaged in Islamic military operations for whom no salary has been allotted in the army roster (O: but who are volunteers for jihad without remuneration). They are given enough to suffice them for the operation, even if affluent; of weapons, mounts, clothing, and expenses (O: for the duration of the journey, round trip, and the time they spend there, even if prolonged. Though nothing has been mentioned here of the expense involved in supporting such people’s families during this period, it seems clear that they should also be given it).

This passage, from this widely-used Shariah text seems to have been written expressly about zakat payments to charities which have funded Al Qaeda, HAMAS, Hezbollah and the Taliban. Note from the passage that such payments are meant specifically for irregular forces who are not part of any army roster, which describes terrorist/guerilla/insurgent groups exactly. Note that they are meant for “Islamic” military operations and not secular groups (i.e. HAMAS and not the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command). Note that such payments are made even if the recipient is affluent…like Osama Bin Laden. And, finally, the families of fighters are to be taken care of, such as payments by Saddam Hussein and Saudi princes to families of Islamikaze bombers in Gaza and the West Bank.

All too often, the destinations of zakat payments are to Jihadists, simply because Shariah mandates it.  

THAT is the reason the federal law enforcement and intelligence authorities in the US have scrutinized Islamic charities to such a degree. And it is irresponsible of the Obama administration to intervene. This is in fact how our enemies are being funded.

Slide of Hand:

Now I am not a conspiracy theorist but you have to wonder what is going on here. I have learned over the years to watch what the other hand is doing when all these “so called Crisis” are happening and seek to draw our attention from the real issues.

         Health Care Bill.

         Cap and Tax Bill.

         Partisan Politics

What's the Other Hand Doing?

         Shariah Finance.

         Zakat.

         Emboldened Jihadist.

         Hizb Ut-Tahrir.

         Destruction of the US Constitution.

Mr. Obama has saught through his rediculas policies to abolish the constitution. He through his Czars, statements, and strong arm tactics is remaking America in his image. It seems like a pretty obvious “coincadense” that these things are all happening at the same time while the American news media misses the reports and cant seem to put two and two together.

What it all Means

         Progressives and Islam historically have worked hand in hand.

         Progressives and Islamist have eugenics in common.

         Nazi’s were socialists party in Germany.

         Hitler and Mufti of Jerusalem were very close friends and allies.

         Mufti taught Hitler how to “handle the Jews”.

         Obama caught between 2 worlds.

 

mufti and hitler

 

 

What can be Done

         Vote out all PROGRESSIVES in congress/senate and elect “True Conservatives” in their place, whatever party they belong to.

         Get involved in the Tea Parties.
