Saudi Arabia Is Finally Admitting in Actions that Muhammad's Teachings can Lead to Islamic Terror

by Tim Brown, Freedom Outpost:

Though Saudi Arabia practices much of what Muhammad teaches, their current actions demonstrate clearly that they acknowledge that those teachings can, and do, lead to Islamic terrorism.

It’s being reported by Reuters that the Saudis are going to be monitoring interpretations of Muhammad’s teachings in an attempt to sanitize those teachings from being used to justify violence or terrorism, according to the Culture and Information Ministry.

Of course, the title of the Reuters article was also attempting to sanitize the teachings of Islam:  “Saudi Arabia to vet use of Prophet’s sayings to counter extremism.”

Those engaging in jihad are merely following in the footsteps of Muhammad who did the same thing.  He waged real war on his enemies and called for the conversion and murder of non-Muslims and even Muslims whom he deemed to be hypocrites.

Reuters reported:

In a decree, King Salman bin Abdulaziz al Saud ordered the establishment of an authority to scrutinise uses of the hadith – accounts of the sayings, actions or habits of the Prophet (PBUH) that are used by preachers and jurists to support teachings and edicts on all aspects of life.

The ministry said late on Tuesday that the body’s aim would be to “eliminate fake and extremist texts and any texts that contradict the teachings of Islam and justify the committing of crimes, murders and terrorist acts”.

The body will be based in Madina and overseen by a council of senior Islamic scholars from around the world, according to the decree. The ministry offered no specific details of how it would work in practice.

Foreign Minister Adel al Jubeir said last month that thousands of extremist clerics had been dismissed, although he gave no timeframe.
