Abu Bakar Bashir Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Abu Bakar Bashir:

Oil wealth has been a curse on us, made us weak and docile.

We have shown that Islam can rule the world perfectly for 14 centuries, and during this time of Muslim power we did not borrow ideas like democracy from others, so why do we need to learn democracy from them now?

Abu Bakar Bashir

Islam's laws are fixed and that is why Islam is stable.

Abu Bakar Bashir

Laws are to be enforced justly but firmly, with an iron hand. This is the case anywhere, even in a family.

Abu Bakar Bashir

We should be proud that our Prophet came into the world with the message of Islam to change it for the better, and not for the worse, or to keep things as they are.

Abu Bakar Bashir

The only model to follow is pure Islam.

Abu Bakar Bashir

Muslims must believe that all power, success and victory comes from God alone.

Abu Bakar Bashir

Islam is fixed, stable, ordered and disciplined, and so are Muslims.

Abu Bakar Bashir

Islam is perfect, there is nothing to be added or changed.

Abu Bakar Bashir

You are right, but the weakness does not come from the millions of Muslims in the world. They do not mind being radical, they have no fear to speak out and to protest and to jihad.

Abu Bakar Bashir

Because Islam in its original form was tough and hard, not weak and pliable.

Abu Bakar Bashir

But the leaders of the OIC could not even accept Mahathir's proposal, yet they talk about respect and honour.

Abu Bakar Bashir

They are scared that the BBC or CNN may call them radicals, so they remain soft instead. The problem lies there, with the Muslim leaders, not the Muslim masses.

Abu Bakar Bashir

Look at the Afghans, during the time of the Soviet invasion. They were among the poorest Muslims in the world, yet they were sustained by their faith in God, and God alone.

Abu Bakar Bashir

But the weakness comes from these Westernised co-opted Muslim leaders who just want to look good in the eyes of the West and Western media.

Abu Bakar Bashir

There is not a single Muslim leader today who has the courage and commitment to defend Islam and Muslims, they are all in awe of the United States and other Western powers, and are indebted to them.

Abu Bakar Bashir

Arab leaders worry more about making money from the profits they get from oil and gas that they turn the other way when Lebanon is being destroyed right next to them. Their neighbours are being murdered, but they only make calculations for their own benefit.

Abu Bakar Bashir

Likewise the leader of any state has to do the same, he has to enforce Shariah firmly, for he will be held in account later in the afterlife if he fails.

Abu Bakar Bashir

Why should we use the Dollar even when we trade among ourselves?

Abu Bakar Bashir

So we want an Islamic state where Islamic law is not just in the books but enforced, and enforced with determination. There is no space and no room for democratic consultation. The Shariah is set and fixed, so why do we need to discuss it anymore? Just implement it!

Abu Bakar Bashir

As long as Muslims were confident they could not be defeated, but now we are just puppets.

Abu Bakar Bashir

This is why I have always said that it would be better if Muslims were poor.

Abu Bakar Bashir

The Prophet defeated the enemies of Islam even when he and his followers were small in number.

Abu Bakar Bashir

The Muslim leaders swallow the advice of the Western powers and bodies like the IMF and World Bank, even when it is bad for their countries and they know this.

Abu Bakar Bashir

Today the Western powers and media want to domesticate us like sheep, to keep us tame and domesticated.

Abu Bakar Bashir

What use is revelation or religion if it doesnt change anything?

Abu Bakar Bashir

The Afghans did not have sophisticated weapons like the Soviets did, but with their faith they defeated a superpower.

Abu Bakar Bashir

What honour have we got left, when nobody is listening to us?

Abu Bakar Bashir

But the West is trying to weaken Islam from outside and inside. They attack our people and invade our countries from outside, and they weaken us from within with ideas like secularism, liberalism and democracy. This is all designed to contaminate our pure Islam.

Abu Bakar Bashir

If my children do not behave according to Islam, if they do not pray for instance, I will punish them.

Abu Bakar Bashir

Oil wealth has been a curse on us, made us weak and docile.
