Ah the Hypocrites. Just who might these people be? Impious observers of the Golden Rule who reject free-will, responsibility, rationality and works of faith? Or perhaps they are the 'criminals', polytheists, and the 'greedy' who reject the Allah cult.
“The Hypocrites are of course those nasty Jews and Christians who inhabited Medina and who rejected Islam [for good reasons]. Medina was where Mohammed fled with his small band in 620, ostensibly invited to help quell internal political and social disputes.Mohammed very quickly seized the opportunity and power afforded by his arbiter status, to become a de-facto Prince of Medina within 2 years. There are many mistakes which the Jews have made in history with regards to Arabs and Muslims. Their invitation to have Mohammed arbitrate over a largely Jewish-Christian enclave, which was far richer and more developed than any other area in Arabia at the time, stands as probably the most completely inane and disastrous policy decision ever taken. Without the refuge of Medina, there would be no Islam.
And what do the Jews and Christians receive for their troubles in offering the obviously insane Mohammed protected status?Hate, bile, and threats of course – all in good Islamic tradition and supported by the impersonal thing called Al-Allah:
“They (the hypocrites) are the ones who say, 'Spend nothing on those who are with Allah's Messenger, to the end that they may disperse (and quit Medina).'” [63:7]
Obviously the Jews and Christians – the Hypocrites – had second thoughts about inviting the moon cult to Medina. Probably they began to realize that Mohammed wanted to replace Judaism and Christianity, including the prophets of both, with Islam and himself.The Muslims very early on in their campaign within Medina began to demand that non-Muslims convert to the new cult of Mohammed and his invention Al-Allah which became conflated rather preposterously with the Jewish-Christian ideals of an anthropomorphic God.”
Muhammad took refuge in Medina and abused the good offices of the Jews and Christians, living there. It was a coup. Medina was a wealthy trading center and once Muhammad and his brigands controlled the city, they had the money and power to begin their war against Mecca. All of this makes Islam a 'religion' of peace of course.
This Sura has 11 verses. Only 11 preach hate and intolerance against the non-Moslem 'Hypocrites'. The entire chapter is an exposition against the Jews and Christians of Medina. Jews and Christians are dammed by Allah as liars, evil and doomed to hell-fire. They are portrayed as greedy, stupid and duplicitous. These attributes make it easier for the Moslems to kill them. The hate speech verses are as follows:
|
When the hypocrites come to you (O Muhammad SAW), they say: "We bear witness that you are indeed the Messenger of Allah." Allah knows that you are indeed His Messenger and Allah bears witness that the hypocrites are liars indeed. |
|
|
They have made their oaths a screen (for their hypocrisy). Thus they hinder (men) from the Path of Allah. Verily, evil is what they used to do. |
|
|
That is because they believed, then disbelieved, therefore their hearts are sealed, so they understand not. |
|
|
And when you look at them, their bodies please you; and when they speak, you listen to their words. They are as blocks of wood propped up. They think that every cry is against them. They are the enemies, so beware of them. May Allah curse them! How are they denying (or deviating from) the Right Path. |
|
|
And when it is said to them: "Come, so that the Messenger of Allah may ask forgiveness from Allah for you", they turn aside their heads, and you would see them turning away their faces in pride. |
|
|
It is equal to them whether you (Muhammad SAW) ask forgiveness or ask not forgiveness for them. Verily, Allah guidesnot the people who are the Fasiqin (rebellious, disobedient to Allah). |
|
|
They are the ones who say: "Spend not on those who are with Allah's Messenger, until they desert him." And to Allah belong the treasures of the heavens and the earth, but the hypocrites comprehend not. |
|
|
They (hyprocrites) say: "If we return to Al-Madinah, indeed the more honourable ('Abdullah bin Ubai bin Salul, the chief of hyprocrites at Al-Madinah) will expel therefrom the meaner (i.e. Allah's Messenger SAW)." But honour, power and glory belong to Allah, His Messenger (Muhammad SAW), and to the believers, but the hypocrites know not. |
|
|
O you who believe! Let not your properties or your children divert you from the remembrance of Allah. And whosoever does that, then they are the losers. |
|
|
And spend (in charity) of that with which We have provided you, before death comes to one of you and he says: "My Lord! If only You would give me respite for a little while (i.e. return to the worldly life), then I should give Sadaqah (i.e. Zakat) of my wealth, and be among the righteous [i.e. perform Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah)]. |
|
|
And Allah grants respite to none when his appointed time (death) comes. And Allah is All-Aware of what you do. |
Allah owns you the human and all your assets including your children [63:9]. All the treasures, pleasures and 'signs' of existence are the property of Allah [63:7]. Humans must venerate only Allah, perform the Hajj or pilgrimage to Mecca, and donate money to the Moslem Umma to keep it strong [63:9-10]. Not doing so will result in your punishment by Allah [63:6]. Unbelievers are denigrated as evil, ignorant and untrustworthy. Death comes to those at the appointed hour [63:11] namely the Day of Judgement. The Al-Lah deity or the 'Lord Hubal of Mecca' knows all. Any actions against the Muhammadan cult will be repaid with vengeance.
This Sura makes it clear that humans must simply submit to the will of Koranic theology and the will to power liturgy of Muhammad aka Allah. Such a theme denotes a cult, not a religion. It would be a good exercise for Moslems to actually read the Koran and see the barren nature of this most cultish of documents.
