Serious Atlanta: Muslim cleric says Muslims use violence to “take over the world,” as taught by Qur’an and Muhammad

Will Soleiman Hamed be investigated for inciting violence? Of course not. Would he be if he were anything but a Muslim, and a Muslim cleric at that? Of course. But no one is going to be so “Islamophobic” as to scrutinize what he is saying here, and no “moderate” spokesman is going to bother to explain how he is misunderstanding the Qur’an and Muhammad, either.



“Atlanta Islamic Scholar Soleiman Hamed on George Floyd Protests: Destruction and Violence are Part of a Quranic Model Applied by Muslims in Revolutions, Taking over the World,” MEMRI, May 29, 2020:

On May 29, 2020, a Friday sermon by Atlanta Islamic scholar Soleiman Hamed was uploaded to the Masjid Al-Islam Facebook page. In the sermon, Hamed reacted to the protests following the death of George Floyd and he said that he will continue talking about revolution until the Muslims “achieve having the world look like Allah would have it.” Saying that he does not “necessarily” advocate the violence in the recent riots, Hamed elaborated that Muslims are not “kumbaya” pacifists and that in revolutions, they should follow the Quranic examples of Abraham and Muhammad, who employed destruction and violence against polytheism and false worship. He added that this is the model that Muslims use when they “take over the world”.

Islam is a orderly way of life. Its not a religion with rituals with popes and clerics.
It's between you and the creator. And will be judged by your deeds alone.
Clerics do not exist in the orderly way of life. What he say is his own opinion. Mere conjecture.
A guided person does not spew hatred, behave arrogantly, kill or speak loudly.

In moslem majority societies, what the clerics say is law. The moslem clerics have more muscle and influence than gangland bosses or politicians.

No wonder so many moslems want their kids to go study in religious schools, where the education quality is crap.

Those muslim schools are partly funded by saudis, the spreader of extremist beliefs.
