New Orleans Jihadi’s Mosque Tells Members to Refer Inquirers to Hamas-Linked CAIR

PJ Media : If Islam really were the religion of peace that virtually every non-Muslim politician in the Western world has been insisting it is for the last twenty-plus years, we would expect a certain kind of reaction from the mosque that jihad mass murderer Shamsud-Din Jabbar frequented.

Yet a mosque that is within walking distance of Jabbar’s Houston home has offered just the opposite reaction. Law enforcement and intelligence officials are unlikely to take any notice, lost as they are in woke dogmas and fantasies, but if protecting the American people were their first priority, they would be paying close attention. 

On Wednesday afternoon, Masjid Bilal ISGH (Islamic Society of Greater Houston) issued this statement:

Assalamu Alaikum [Peace be upon you] Brothers and Sisters, 

I’m sure many of you have heard about the tragic events that took place in New Orleans this morning that are now being classified as an “act of terror” by the FBI. 

I want to emphasize the importance of everyone to stay very vigilant and aware of your surroundings. The safety of our community is the most important thing. 

If anyone is contacted by the media, it is very important that you do not respond. If approached by the FBI and a response is necessary, please refer to CAIR and ISGH. 

It is crucial that we stay united at this time as we condemn these terrible acts. Please stay safe.

JazakAllahu Khairun [May Allah reward you with blessings]
Masjid Bilal Management

This statement was as notable for what it didn’t say as for what it did. The mosque expressed no shock, horror, or even disapproval of Jabbar’s jihad attack. It offered no condolences to the families of the victims. It offered nothing regarding what it planned to do to ensure that other members of the congregation didn’t misunderstand Islam in the way that Shamsud-Din Jabbar supposedly did. It didn’t include a word about cooperating with law enforcement efforts, or affirming the mosque members’ patriotism and renunciation of jihad violence. 

Instead, it implied (“please stay safe”) that members of the mosque were in danger from “Islamophobes” who might target them in rage over Jabbar’s attack. It has become a common feature of the aftermath of every jihad attack: the local mosque asks for extra police protection, and mosquegoers tell eager leftist “journalists” about how scared they are of a “backlash.” 

Yet such a “backlash” seldom, if ever, materializes. Nor should it. Nor should mosques so often attempt to deflect attention away from the reality of jihad violence. Masjid Bilal made matters even worse by directing members to refer inquirers to the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
