[ShabelleMedia] Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi ...Egyptian Islamic theologian and teevee preacher, well-known for IslamOnline, a website he helped found in 1997 and for which he now serves as chief religious scholar. Al-Qaradawi has also published more than 80 books, including Islam: The Future Civilization. He is considered one of the most influential Moslem Brotherhood scholars living today. Al-Qaradawi is banned from entering the United States, Israel and Great Britain. In 2004, 2,500 Moslem academics from Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Paleostine accused him of giving Islam a bad name.... , one of the Sunni Moslem world’s most influential religious scholars, has died.
Al-Qaradawi, an Egyptian who was based in Qatar ...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates. Home of nutbag holy manYusuf al-Qaradawi... , was the chairman of the International Union of Moslem Scholars, and also a spiritual leader for the Moslem Brüderbund. He was 96 years old.
His death on Monday was announced on his official Twitter account.
Al-Qaradawi, who formerly made regular appearances on Al Jazeera Arabic to discuss religious matters, hosted a popular TV program, "Shariah and Life," in which he took calls from across the Moslem world, dispensing theological rulings and offering advice on everything from global politics to mundane aspects of daily life.
Al-Qaradawi was highly critical of the coup that overthrew Egypt’s first democratically elected president, Mohammed Morsi, in 2013.
Morsi had been a member of the Moslem Brüderbund before he became president, and was backed by the movement.
Al-Qaradawi was unable to return to Egypt following Morsi’s overthrow due to his opposition to Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi.
The religious leader had previously been in exile from Egypt prior to the 2011 revolution that overthrew former President Hosni Mubarak ...The former President-for-Life of Egypt, dumped by popular demand in early 2011... His death sparked strong reactions across the Moslem world, as people took to social media to mourn his death.
The Moslem Brüderbund, which was founded in Egypt and had branches across the region, played a considerable role in the 2011 uprisings that rocked the Middle East and led to widespread demonstrations in several countries across the region.
Al-Qaradawi had been tried and sentenced to death in absentia in Egypt.
Al Jazeera’s Jamal El Shayyal, said Qaradawi authored "more than 120 books and more than 50-60 other publications that spoke to a large section of the global Moslem community".
"He was probably the most internationalised Moslem scholar that Islam had in modern days — probably the single most influential in that he didn’t limit his teachings to a specific section of Islam," he said.
Qaradawi often spoke about modern day issues, including everything from the "permissibility of relationships to elections and democracy to social justice issues," El Shayyal added.
Born in 1926, while Egypt was still under British colonial rule, al-Qaradawi combined religious education with anti-colonial activism during his youth. His activism against the British occupation and later, his association with the Moslem Brüderbund led to his arrest several times during the 1950’s.
He moved to Qatar in the early 1960s when he was appointed Dean of the Faculty of Shariah at Qatar University and then later granted Qatari citizenship.
Ibrahim Salah al-Nuaimi, chairman of the Doha international centre for interfaith dialogue, described Qaradawi as a "moderate, great scholar".
"He worked closely with many representatives of different faiths to bring together harmony and to really put down the hate speeches" that would sometime arise between different faiths," al-Nuaimi told Al Jazeera.
One of his early famous works was the 1973 book Fiqh al-Zakat (The Jurisprudence of Zakat). al-Qaradawi also sought to reinterpret historical rules of Islamic law in order to better integrate Moslems in non-Moslem societies.
He supported suicide kabooms against Israel in the Second Intifada and also voiced support for the Iraqi insurgency that erupted after the US-led invasion of 2003 toppled Saddam Hussein. His stance on both issues won him a long standing infamy in the West.
In 2009, Israel’s Shin Bet internal security agency accused al-Qaradawi of allocating $21 million to a charity funded by Hamas, a regional Iranian catspaw, to set up turban infrastructure in Jerusalem. Hamas, which rules the Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... Strip, denied the allegations. No, no! Certainly not!

[Center for Immigration Studies] Recently released State Department estimates indicate that a majority of those coming to the U.S. via the Diversity Visa Lottery during the next fiscal year (2023) will be Muslims, despite the fact that adherents of that faith account for less than a quarter of the world's population..
This is up sharply from the FY 2020 level of about 18 percent, as we reported earlier this year.
Given our government’s reluctance to gather data along religious lines, this information is teased out of statistics dealing with the country of origin of the diversity visa holders. A more precise statement would be that, out of 43,129 expected diversity visas, 21,000 will come from five Muslim-majority nations (Algeria, Egypt, Iran, Morocco, and Uzbekistan), while 22,129 will come from the rest of the world, or so the most recent State Department Visa Bulletin tells us. Funny how the thumb is on the scale of a supposedly random lottery when the Obama 1,2,3 admins are in power.
...“George” from the London ‘hood. He was born in Sudan, and he is not at all a nice man — the rest is only vicious detail.

34, will not go to what's known as a 'concrete box' at the ADX Florence prison in Colorado but a less restrictive prison on the same site
At USP Florence High — at the same site — Elsheikh will live among a general prison population rather than spend 23 hours a day in solitary confinement
Elsheikh received eight life sentences after committing 'some of the most barbaric terrorist acts ever seen' as part of the twisted 'ISIS Beatles' group
They captured, tortured and killed a group of journalists and aid workers in Syria in 2014
Other prisoners who have spent time at Florence High include Boston Marathon Bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and Green River serial killer, Gary Ridgway

Putting him in General Population is a recipe for trouble. Actually so is not executing him.

...Let's be careful what we wish for and stay vigilant - problem number one is that if the mullahs split, there's still a bunch of very bad hombres who all feel that they're the rightful heirs. Problem number two is that even if they somehow avoid an implosion, what you're still likely to get is a much more Westernized nation that still hates Israel and still feels they should be ruling the Persian Gulf.

Very true. Ideally, a moslem nation must be kept squabbling and factions stabbing and shooting each other for power, never actually stable for very long. Stability brings prosperity, military power and influence with the international community. Which we shouldn't wish for Moslems of any stripe.

I would love to see Iran throw off the mullahs and do some kind of Nuremberg trials. I'd love to see them do it on their own with no Western nations having a say in the aftermath.
