Sharia Law for Non-Muslims Chapter 5-The Kafir






Sharia Law for Non-Muslims

Chapter 5—The Kafir



Until now we have looked at the big picture of Sharia and then the position
of women in Sharia. We now come to a new subject--the unbeliever or non-Muslim.
The word "non-Muslim" is used in the translation of Sharia law, but
the actual Arabic word used is "Kafir". But the word Kafir means far
more than non-Muslim. The original meaning of the word was "concealer",
one who conceals the truth of Islam.



The Koran says that the Kafir may be deceived, plotted against, hated, enslaved,
mocked, tortured and worse. The word is usually translated as "unbeliever"
but this translation is wrong. The word "unbeliever" is logically
and emotionally neutral, whereas, Kafir is the most abusive, prejudiced and
hateful word in any language.

There are many religious names for Kafirs: polytheists, idolaters, People of
the Book (Christians and Jews), Buddhists, atheists, agnostics, and pagans.
Kafir covers them all, because no matter what the religious name is, they
can all be treated the same. What Mohammed said and did to polytheists can
be done to any other category of Kafir.


Islam devotes a great amount of energy to the Kafir. The majority (64%) of the
Koran is devoted to the Kafir, and nearly all of the Sira (81%) deals with
Mohammed's struggle with them. The Hadith (Traditions) devotes 32% of the
text to Kafirs1. Overall, the Trilogy devotes 60% of its content
to the Kafir.

Amount of Text Devoted to the
Kafir


The Sharia does not devote nearly that much
to the Kafir since Sharia law is primarily for Muslims. Besides, the Kafir
has few rights, so there is little to expound on.


Religious Islam is what Muslims do to go to Paradise and avoid Hell. What Mohammed
did to Kafirs was not religious, but political. Political Islam is what is
of concern to Kafirs, not the religion. Who cares how a Muslim worships, but
every one of us is concerned as to what they do to us and say about us. Political
Islam should be of concern to every Kafir.


Here are two Sharia references about Kafirs:


w59.2 [...] And this clari?es the Koranic verses and hadiths about
hatred for the sake of Allah and love for the sake of Allah, Al Walaa
wa al Baraa
, being unyielding towards the Kafirs, hard against them,
and detesting them, while accepting the destiny of Allah Most High insofar
as it is the decree of Allah Mighty and Majestic.


Hatred for the sake of Allah and love for the sake of Allah is called Al
Walaa wa al Baraa,
a fundamental principle of Islamic ethics and Sharia.
A Muslim is to hate what Allah hates and love what Allah loves. Allah hates
the Kafir, therefore, a Muslim is to act accordingly.


40:35 They [Kafirs] who dispute the signs [Koran verses] of
Allah without authority having reached them are greatly hated by Allah and
the believ
ers [Muslims]. So Allah seals up every arrogant, disdainful
heart.


h8.24 It is not permissible to give zakat [charity] to a Kafir,
or to someone whom one is obliged to support such as a wife or family member.


Here are a few of the Koran references: A Kafir can be mocked--


83:34 On that day the faithful will mock the Kafirs, while they
sit on brid
al couches and watch them. Should not the Kafirs be paid
back for what they did?


A Kafir can be beheaded--


47:4 When you encounter the Kafirs on the battle?eld,
cut off their heads until you have thoroughly defeated them and then take
the prisoners and tie them up firmly.


A Kafir can be plotted against--


86:15 They plot and scheme against you [Mohammed], and I plot
and scheme against them. Therefore, deal calmly with the Kafirs and leave
them alone for a while.


A Kafir can be terrorized--


8:12 Then your Lord spoke to His angels and said, "I will
be with you. Give strength to the believers. I will send terror into the Kafirs'
hearts, cut off their heads and even the tips of their fingers!"


A Muslim is not the friend of a Kafir--


3:28 Believers should not take Kafirs as friends in preference
to other believers. Those who do this will have none of Allah's protection
and will only have themselves as guards. Allah warns you to fear Him for all
will return to Him.


A Kafir is evil--


23:97 And say: Oh my Lord! I seek refuge with You from the suggestions
of the evil ones [Kafirs]. And I seek refuge with you, my Lord, from their
presence.


A Kafir is disgraced--


37:18 Tell them, "Yes! And you [Kafirs] will be disgraced."


A Kafir is cursed--


33:60 They [Kafirs] will be cursed, and wherever they are found,
they will be seized and murdered. It was Allah's same practice with those
who came before them, and you will ?nd no change in Allah's ways.


KAFIRS AND THE PEOPLE OF THE BOOK


Muslims tell Christians and Jews that they are special. They are "People
of the Book" and are brothers in the Abrahamic faith. But in Islam you
are a Christian, if and only if, you believe that Christ was a man who was
a prophet of Allah; there is no Trinity; Jesus was not crucified nor resurrected
and that He will return to establish Sharia law. To be a true Jew you must
believe that Mohammed is the last in the line of Jewish prophets.


This verse is positive:


5:77 Say: Oh, People of the Book, do not step out of the bounds of truth in
your religion, and do not follow the desires of those who have gone wrong
and led many astray. They have themselves gone astray from the even way.


Islamic doctrine is dualistic, so there is an opposite view as well. Here is
the last verse written about the People of the Book (A later verse abrogates
or nullifies an earlier verse.). This is the final word. It calls for Muslims
to make war on the People of the Book who do not believe in the religion of
truth, Islam.


9:29 Make war on those who have received the Scriptures [Jews
and Chris
tians] but do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day. They
do not forbid what Allah and His Messenger have forbidden. The Christians
and Jews do not follow the religion of truth until they submit and pay the
poll tax [jizya] and they are humiliated.


The sentence "They do not forbid..." means that they do not accept
Sharia law; "until they submit" means to submit to Sharia law. Christians
and Jews who do not accept Mohammed as the ?nal prophet are Kafirs.


Muslims pray five times a day and the opening prayer always includes:


Koran 1: 7 Not the path of those who anger You [the Jews] nor the path
of those who go astray [the Christians].


LANGUAGE


Since the original Arabic word for unbelievers was Kafir and that is the actual
word used in the Koran and Sharia law, that is the word used here for accuracy
and precision.


It is very simple: if you don't believe Mohammed and his Koran, you are a Kafir.
