Massachusetts: Imam says that in the US, disobedience to Allah ‘is the norm. This is a terrible place.’

The Mullah

Robert Spencer : Imam Abdullah Faaruuq complains that he and the Muslims to whom he is speaking are in Boston, not in Sudan, Afghanistan, Egypt, Morocco, Pakistan, or India, where “women have the sense to cover themselves.” He is angry because of America’s libertinism.

There is a simple remedy for this: he and his followers could move to Sudan, Afghanistan, Egypt, Morocco, Pakistan, or India. But they do not want to do that, and are not going to do it. Instead, many of them are hoping to claim the promise in this Qur’an passage: “Whoever emigrates for the sake of Allah will find much refuge and abundance in the earth, and whoever forsakes his home, a refugee for Allah and his messenger, and death overtakes him, his reward is then obligatory upon Allah.” (4:100) Emigration for the sake of Allah involves Islamizing one’s new home.

Boston Imam Abdullah Faaruuq delivered a Friday sermon at the Islamic Society of Boston, in Cambridge Massachusetts, on March 18, 2022, in which he said that America was a “terrible place.”…Abdullah Faaruuq is the Imam of Mosque Praise Allah in Boston, and he has ties with convicted Pakistani-American terrorist Aafia Siddiqui. For more information about Faaruuq, see MEMRI TV Clips nos. 6832 and 6832.

Abdullah Faaruuq: “We are in America. We are not in Sudan. We are not in Afghanistan. We are not in places where women have the sense to cover themselves. We are not in Egypt, Morocco, Pakistan, India. We are in a land where disobedience to Almighty God is what is the norm. Disobedience is normal.

“Perversity is average — men can marry men, women can marry men… Oh yeah, that’s true, women can marry men… That’s good, Allah be praised. Women can marry women. This is a land in which anything is possible.

If you don’t like your gender, you can change it, you can chop it off, put it on. You could do anything you want. This is a terrible place.”
