California Imam Prays for Allah to ‘Annihilate’ Jews in Public Sermon

Imam Ammar Shahin of the Islamic Center of Davis in California provided a preaching on Friday where he priced quote an antisemitic hadith and wished Allah to “obliterate” Jews “down to the really last one.”

The subject of the preaching was the ongoing controversy at the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, where the Israeli government installed metal detectors at access points to the Al-Aqsa Mosque after a terrorist shot and killed 2 Druze Israeli soldiers previously this month.Jewish visitors to

the close-by Western Wall have actually had to go through metal detectors for years, due to the security threat of terrorism. However, the new metal detectors for Muslim worshippers have been whipped into a source of outrage amongst Palestinians and throughout the Muslim world.In his sermon at the Islamic Center

, Shahin quoted, in Arabic, among the most infamous antisemitic hadiths( mentors of Muhammad)– one estimated by the Hamas charter– in which Muslims are called upon to eliminate the Jews to cause Judgment Day, and in which Muhammad is stated to prophesy that the Jews will attempt to hide behind rocks and trees, which will call out to Muslims to kill them.Shahin said(through MEMRI records): The Prophet Muhammad said:’Judgment Day will not come until the Muslims combat the Jews, and the Jews hide behind stones and trees, and the stones and the trees say: Oh Muslim, oh servant of Allah …’They will not state: Oh Egyptian, oh Palestinian, oh Jordanian, oh Syrian, oh Afghan, oh Pakistani. The Prophet Muhammad says that they time will come, the Last Hour will not take place till the Muslims combat the Jews. We do not state if it is in Palestine or another location. Up until they fight … When that war breaks out, they will run and hide behind every rock, and house, and wall, and trees. Your home, the wall, and the hair will hire the Muslims. It will say: Oh Muslim … It will not state: Oh Palestinian, oh Egyptian, oh Syrian, oh Afghan, oh Pakistani, oh Indian … No, it will say: Oh Muslim. Muslim. When Muslims return … ‘Come, there is somebody behind me– except for the Gharqad tree, which is the tree of the Jews. Except for a specific tree that they are growing today in Palestine, because location, except this form of tree, which they are growing today … That’s the tree that will not speak with the Muslims.Article 7 of the Hamas covenant reads: The Day of Judgement will not come about up until Moslems fight the Jews (killing the Jews), when the Jew will conceal behind stones and trees . The stones and trees will say

O Moslems, O Abdulla, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him. Only the Gharkad tree,(obviously a specific type of tree)would refrain from doing that since it is among the trees of the Jews.” (related by alBukhari and Moslem). Shahin also prayed (in Arabic): Oh Allah, support the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the rest of the Muslim lands. Oh Allah, free the Al-Aqsa Mosque from the dirt of the Jews.

Oh Allah, damage those who closed the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Oh Allah, show us the black day that You cause upon them, and the marvels of Your capability. Oh Allah, count them one by one and obliterate them down to the very last one. Do not spare any of them.It is unclear whether Shahin implied for Muslims to “obliterate” all Jews all over, or merely all of those responsible for the momentary closure of the Temple Mount and the setup of metal

detectors in reaction to radical Islamic terror.The complete video of Shahin’s remarks put today’s controversy at the Temple Mount in the context of past Muslim complaints versus the Crusaders for inhabiting the mosque and other indignities. In his remarks, his voice shaking with feeling

, Shahin required that his audience act to safeguard the mosque.He described the fight with the”Yahood”(Jews)as a battle over faith, not over land. He said the Jews had actually won so far since they were battling for their faith.”It’s a war of faith. It’s either a belief or shock … They train their children to read the Torah …

we do not have the parents who sits with their children and raise their awareness of exactly what’s al Mosque Al-Aqsa.”He applauded Palestinians who deal with Israeli soldiers with rocks, and mocked those who simply view events from afar. He prompted congregants to pray, at least, for those withstanding the Israelis.At no point in his preaching did Shahin condemn the terror attack that provoked Israel to take extra security measures.The mosque promoted the video on

its YouTube channel with the remark:”Please share, implement, and make Dua for the success of the Muslim Ummah.” Friday is the holy day of the Islamic week, and Friday sermons are thought about the

most important.Neither Shahin nor the president of the mosque returned requests for comment from Breitbart News by the time of publication.Davis has actually been the website of other antisemitic incidents in the current past, some seemingly fueled by radical Islamic beliefs and affinity for the Hamas terrorist group.In 2015, Muslims students ridiculed Jewish students at a student government conference by shouting”Allahu Akbar!”at them, One of the Muslim students involved later on< a href="http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/student-leader-hamas-shariah-law-have-taken-over-uc-davis"> boasted that “Hamas and Sharia law have taken over UC Davis.”
