www.independent.co.uk says with this heading
Chattanooga shooting: Mohammad Youssuf Abdulazeez told Muslims to 'submit to Allah' and 'establish Islam in world' days before rampageMohammad Youssuf Abdulazeez, 24, opened fire at two military sites in Tennessee on Thursday in a rampage that lasted 30 minutes before he was shot dead by police. After initial reports that the shooting might have been inspired by, the FBI s said investigators had found nothing that linked the shooter to an international terrorist group.
The gunman who killed four US Marines in what is being investigated as a possible incident of domestic terrorism wrote a blog urging Muslims to “establish Islam in the world” days before his attack, it has emerged. A blog being attributed to Abdulazeez appeared online days before the shooting, with two posts put up on Monday.
The first, called “A Prison Called Dunya” - meaning the earthly as opposed to spiritual world – used the metaphor of a jail to illustrate the need for Muslims to study their faith in life to be rewarded in death.
Quoting a Koran passage calling existence “but amusement and diversion” and asking “what is the worldly life except the enjoyment of delusion?”, the blog goes on to quote a hadith calling the world “a prison for the believer and a paradise for the unbeliever”.
“This life we are living is nothing more than a test of our faith and patience,” the author believed to be Abdulazeez wrote.
“It was designed to separate the inhabitants of Paradise from the inhabitants of Hellfire, and to rank amongst them the best of the best and worst of the worst.
“Don't let the society we live in deviate you from the task at hand.”
The blog urged Muslims not to be “fooled by (their) desires”, adding: “This life is short and bitter and the opportunity to submit to Allah may pass you by.
“Take his word as your light and code and do not let other prisoners, whether they are so called ‘Scholars’ or even your family members, divert you from the truth.”
The line appeared to be a reference to Islamic clerics who speak out against jihad and relatives who may have attempted to stop Abdulazeez or other extremists from being radicalised.
The second post on the blog professed to be on “understanding Islam” and used the popular parable of the blind men and an elephant, who cannot understand what the creature is from their limited experience and argue about it, to illustrate differing views of Islam.
“We have a certain understanding of Islam and keep a tunnel vision of what we think Islam is,” Abdulazeez wrote. “What we know is Islam and everything else is not.”
He claimed that Mohamed's disciples waged jihad and are an example to be followed.
“We ask Allah to make us follow their path,” he wrote.
“To give us a complete understanding of the message of Islam, and the strength the live by this knowledge, and to know what role we need to play to establish Islam in the world.”
The author of the blog, titled M.Y. Abdulazeez, could not be verified.
Abdulazeez, an engineering graduate who attended the University of Tennessee, was believed to be a naturalised American who was born in Kuwait. ...
Well there is more at that news link.. but that is good enough to understand how a well educated Engineer kills himself and kills others who have done no harm to him or to his immediate family members for the sake of his faith . There is little doubt that Islam and Islamic brain wash from its scriptures generate fatalistic mindset in young men. The present time we are living is not the times of swords but time of Machine guns that can fire 100s of rounds per minute and can kill 100s of innocents in a minute .. WORSE IS THEY ARE LEGAL TO ACQUIRE IN SOME COUNTRIES.
Some 100 years ago A man called Winston Churchill, wrote a book
"The River War" concerning his experiences as a British Army officer, during the Mahdist War (1881–99) in the Sudan. The book essentially tells history of the British imperial involvement in the Sudan, and the Mahdi War between the British forces, led by Mr. Kitchener, and the
Dervish forces, led by Khalifa Abdallahi ibn Muhammad, "The Mahdi”, heir to the self-proclaimed Mahdi Muhammad Ahmad who had embarked on a campaign to conquer Egypt, to drive out the non-Muslim infidels.
He says in it about Islam
“ ..............
How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property – either as a child, a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen: all know how to die: but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith.
It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome[/i]..............,
Well it is hard to say that Mr. Winston Churchill is wrong when I see the life and story of 24 year old Mohammad Youssuf Abdulazeez who is well educated in a very affluent country that too an Engineer but with religious mindset .. all that education that could have helped millions of uneducated Muslim folks goes out of the window in these faith heads
Ha! what a words...
“We ask Allah to make us follow their path,” he wrote.
“To give us a complete understanding of the message of Islam, and the strength the live by this knowledge, and to know what role we need to play to establish Islam in the world.”
Sure that 24 year old fool did not read Quran in its entirety . I argue all educated Muslims, all college graduates DO NOT LISTEN TO THE FOOLS THAT PREACH IN MOSQUES but
to Read Quran .. all 114 chapters ..
It doesn't take much time to read that book .. It is a small book in comparison to your college text books. I am sure you will understand it better than what these IDIOTS OF ISLAM preach from mosques or from those dawa centers on web,....
