What is Ghazwa-e-Hind? What every Indian should know about the Islamic doctrine that prophesizes Islamic rule over India and the annihilation of Hindus and Hindustan

The issue of ‘Ghazwa-e-Hind’ (Prophetic War on India) came up for discussion on my new talk show in India on Zee News. Two facts emerged: First Islamic clerics didn’t wish to discuss the subject, and then Hindus of India knew next tio nothing on this subject.

Before I explain this controversial doctrine that is based on a Hadees (saying) of Prophet Muhammad, it is worth nothing that

Indian politicians and academics as well as men and women of the military have remained confounded at what they see as the irrational urge among Pakistan’s Military-Mullah Establishment to provoke a war with India despite repeated defeats in 1947-48, 1965, 1971, and 1999.

The answer may be in this 2011 lecture by a prominent Islamic cleric and former banker Irfan-ul-Haq as he explains the genesis of Pakistan being the prophesied defeat of India and Hinduism at the hands of Pakistan in what is known in the Hadith (Hadees) literature as the ‘Ghazwa-e-Hind’ or the Prophet’s War on India.

The cleric tells his enthralled audience that Pakistan came about for the sole purpose of being the springboard of the end-of-times ‘Ghazwa-e-Hind’ when Pakistan’s military and people will swarm India and wipe out once and for all the practice of Hinduism from the face of earth.

He says, only then will the armies of Islam march to meet the reincarnation of Jesus Christ in Syria from where Europe will be conquered and once that is done, human civilization will end on the prophesized day of Qayamat (Qayama in Arabic, the end of times

Lecture on Ghazwa-e-Hind in English

Here is another explanation by another Islamic cleric, this time from the Caribbean, speaking in English. This fellow uses clever doublespeak to not only use the lecture about ‘Ghazwa-e-Hind’ to spread hatred against Hindus, but also against Jews and Israel while provoking Pakistan Army to be even more radical and anti-India than they already are, taunting them to go further.

In Canada, a Muslim witch-hunt against an Arab-Christian school principal doesn’t end

It seemed the witch hunt against a school principal in Markham had all but died down after she was forced to apologize for her supposedly anti-Muslim Facebook posts.

When the attacks on Ghada Sadaka — an Arab Christian — began in September, I went through what the principal had posted and found nothing that would have upset me as a Muslim, or the many Muslim parents of York Region that I spoke to.

Toronto Star reporter Noor Javed

According to Toronto Star reporter Noor Javed, Sadaka shared and commented on videos purportedly showing violent “Muslim takeovers” of Paris and London, as well as articles expressing concerns refugees may bring “terrorist sympathies” to Canada.

Nowhere in her posts did Sadaka denounce all Muslims or peaceful followers of Islam. Yet, a single unnamed individual told the Star she felt the Facebook posts were “blatantly spreading hate” and so complained to the school board.

After relentless pressure by a handful of Muslim activists who employed the tactic of feigned outrage to set boundaries on free speech, the Christian Arab principal posted an apology on the school website.

She wrote on Nov. 10 that she “did not intend to be disrespectful towards any group or individual and I sincerely regret the upset this has caused to those who were offended by the posts.”

The matter should have ended there, but a week later, on Nov. 28, the Toronto Star wrote Sadaka had now gone on medical leave until the new year.

It was as if nothing would satisfy detractors other than her complete humiliation, if not dismissal, to send a warning message to the rest of Canada that anyone who dares criticize the inhumanity and barbarism of Islamist jihadis around the world will be hounded into total submission to the highly orchestrated brouhaha of victimhood and false allegations of racism and so-called Islamophobia.

Castro, my childhood hero turned dictator; made Cubans prisoners in their own homes

“That was the first Fidel, the hero of my teenage years when I spent time in the dark prisons of American-backed Pakistani dictators. But then there was the Fidel who failed me. He devastated my faith in his promised revolution of the masses. Notwithstanding Castro’s success in education and healthcare, he stifled the human spirit and turned Cubans into prisoners in their own homes. Scores died and many more rot in prisons, tiny gulags copied from his Soviet sponsors.”

Two Castros died on November 26. The first Fidel was the man who in 1959 led a popular uprising against an American-backed, mafia-sponsored, corrupt dictator in Cuba, chasing him and his cronies out of the island nation. Then, when bullied by Uncle Sam, he stood up to Washington like a man my generation of kids born in the Third World had never heard of before.

In grade four at Karachi’s St. Lawrence’s Boys school, we didn’t know anything about communism, but we heard from the senior boys and our fathers and uncles that America the mighty had just had its teeth knocked out by a revolutionary called Castro – right in their own backyard too.

We were no more than 10 years old, but we had already witnessed an American-backed military coup in Pakistan in 1958 that brought Gen. Ayub Khan to power, and had heard of the CIA coup in next door Iran in 1953 that overthrew Prime Minister Mohammed Mossadegh.

Neither Mossadegh nor Castro were communists then. In fact, as the veteran British leftist Tariq Ali pointed out in CounterPunch.org on Friday, even as the Cuban revolutionaries prepared for the assault on Havana, “the direction that the revolution would take was still not clear – even to Castro. Until that point, he had never been a socialist, and relations with the official Cuban Communist Party were often tense.”[1]

How then did a non-socialist who had little to do with the Cuban communists end up as the leading communist leader of the post-World War 2 era? It wasn’t until October 1965 that Castro’s ‘26th of July Movement’ became the official Communist Party of Cuba.

The answer to that question can be found in the recent era of the Bush-Rumsfeld years and later the Obama-Clinton doctrines of foreign policy that turned entire countries into crucibles of howling anti-American maniacs.

Back in the late 1950s and 60s, as Castro consolidated, the CIA, fresh from its victories in Iran and Pakistan engineered the invasion of Cuba by Florida-based exiles in the 1961 Bay of Pigs fiasco.

Once Cuban revolutionaries defeated the US-backed invasion of their country, Castro had no choice but to seek a close military and economic alliance with the only other super power in town, the USSR.

And with the Soviets came Soviet-style mediocrity, governance, drabness and oppression which millions of Cubans suffered for decades, even after the USSR itself splintered and the hollowness of Soviet-style communism was exposed as an utter and complete failure, economically, morally and militarily.

That was the first Fidel, the hero of my teenage years when I spent time in the dark prisons of American-backed Pakistani dictators.

But then there was the Fidel who failed me.

He devastated my faith in his promised revolution of the masses. Notwithstanding Castro’s success in education and healthcare, he stifled the human spirit and turned Cubans into prisoners in their own homes. Scores died and many more rot in prisons, tiny gulags copied from his Soviet sponsors.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau may extol the virtues of Castro suggesting the Commandante had “tremendous dedication and love for the Cuban people.” Fidel may very well have love for his people. But the reality is my childhood hero was destroyed by the very system he created.

His failure was best illustrated when he made his younger brother Raoul inherit his crown in a manner that reminded me of the Rajas and Maharajas of India, today the world’s largest democracy despite two vibrant communist parties.

Fidel Castro with Justin Trudeau in his arms as mom Margaret Trudeau looks on.

 

Host of India’s most watched talk show Rajat Sharma grills Tarek Fatah in ‘Aap Ki Adalat’

Indian Muslim woman calls on Indian clerics and Saudi rulers to issue a Fatwa on Tarek Fatah; Shames Muslim men to eliminate him

Yasmeen Arora Munshi is a Mumbai-based YouTube blogger who is a fan of Arab-funded Indian radical Islamist Zakir Naik.

She espouses Islamic opposition ot Prime Minister Narendra Modi and uses pretty harsh language to attack his policies.

Last month, stung by my criticism of Pakistan, a number of Indian Muslims started trolling me and could not conceal their hostility towards me on TV debates, either as hosts or guests.

Now Ms. Munshi has joined the list and is shaming Indian Muslim men to ‘eliminate’ me from India in the name of Islam and has asked Indian Islamic clerics and Saudi leaders to issue a fatwa on my head.

Goodbye Huma Abedin, Hello Keith Ellison

“Instead of going back to the drawing board and wondering how a controversial figure such as Huma Abedin – whose family is alleged in a National Review piece as having “significant Muslim Brotherhood connections” – managed to get associated with the Democratic Party, the democrats are now planning to make Minnesota Congressman Keith Ellison the new DNC chair. Ellison has received political donations from members of the Council on American-Islamic Relations in the past. In 2008, a U.S. federal court judge found there was ample evidence that the U.S. based CAIR group had links to Hamas.”

One would have thought the Democratic Party would have learned a lesson in flaunting Islamists in its ranks as latter day civil rights’ symbols. But no, liberals find Islamists so succulent that, when the hangover from one fades, they pick up another. More on that later.

In the meantime, as the self-righteous liberal hysteria following Hillary’s loss settles stateside, the former First Lady is blaming her defeat on none other than the FBI.

No, in Clinton’s entitlement-state-of-mind, it was never her fault. Not even her questionable deletion of 30,000 emails or the hammer-mode destruction of her multiple cellular phones to destroy evidence. It was always someone else’s fault.

In a conference call on Saturday with her top campaign donors, Clinton was reported by Reuters as saying, she was on her way to victory until FBI director James Comey sent a letter to Congress on October 28 announcing the bureau had uncovered emails possibly related to its earlier probe into her use of a private server as secretary of state.

This was dismissed on Monday by none other than Sen. Bernie Sanders, the man I believe could have beaten Donald Trump hands down if he had been allowed by the DNC to be the Democratic nominee in the November 8 presidential elections.

Sanders told CBS This Morning that Clinton lost to Trump because the Democratic Party had failed to appeal to millions of white working class voters.

“She should have won by 10 percentage points,” he emphasized.

Asked how a billionaire could connect with working class folks while the Democrats failed, Sanders said:

“I come from the white working class and I am deeply humiliated that the Democratic Party cannot talk to the people where I came from. … the Democratic Party has to stand with the working people of this country. Feel their pain, take on the billionaire class, take on Wall Street, take on the drug companies…”

As someone who ‘felt the Bern’, I am astonished that Sanders could not admit the one fact so many Americans associated with Clinton and Obama – soft on Saudi Arabia and Islamism.

Instead of going back to the drawing board and wondering how a controversial figure such as Huma Abedin – whose family is alleged in a National Review piece as having “significant Muslim Brotherhood connections” – managed to get associated with the Democratic Party, the democrats are now planning to make Minnesota Congressman Keith Ellison the new DNC chair.

Ellison has received political donations from members of the Council on American-Islamic Relations in the past. In 2008, a U.S. federal court judge found there was ample evidence that the U.S. based CAIR group had links to Hamas.

World over, the left and their liberal soul mates seem to have developed an infatuation with exotic Islamism and all things anti-American. They celebrate diversity even if that diversity is fundamentally misogynist, homophobic, medieval and based on hatred of the Jew, the Christian, the Hindu and the atheist as many Islamists do.

The white liberal class doesn’t complain about Islamism but has erupted in hysteria over Trump’s victory. Social media has been full of it.

But the tweet that best reflected the hypocritical hysteria about Hillary’s defeat came from non-white liberal celebrity in Great Britain, The Guardian contributor Monisha Rajesh. She tweeted: “It’s about time for a presidential assassination”.

Suffice to say she herself did not survive. That is, she deleted her Twitter account.

Let the games begin!

Muslim TV host ambushes me on India’s ETVUrdu Network- Gets exposed as an Islamist with a Mullah Agenda

On Oct 25, 2016 India’s ETVUrdu Network aired a one-on-one interview with me where the host dropped all pretence of civility and revealed his agenda of Islamist hostility towards me.

What went on air was a highly edited version of the original recording to tweak the outcome so the host’s follies could be hidden. Despite the clever edits, the host loses his shirt in the exchange, at one point defending the destruction of mosques in Mecca in the name of development while crying foul over Babri Mosque in India.

Seems there is something innately unethical among the self-righteous promoters of Urdu in India. Hiding behind Urdu, they push the worldwide Islamist agenda of the Saudi Wahhabi Islam.

The network that is supposedly an Urdu language channel is in fact playing the role of an Islamic network promoting Sharia, Muslim victimhood and the agenda of India’s clerics who are holding the country’s Muslim population hostage in a medieval time freeze.

The channel was recently acquired by India’s most celebrated business tycoon Mukesh Ambani, an Indian hero by any account. I doubt if Mr Ambani is aware how his channel is promoting the politics of MA Jinnah of 1946-47 in the year 2016.

It is also worth mentioning that the primary viewership of the channel is NOT in the Urdu-speaking belt of UP and Bihar, but rather it is viewed mostly in the Kashmir Valley by militants influenced by Pakistan’s anti-India propaganda.

This Remembrance Day, Canada lost one of its greats, Leonard Cohen. But we do have him on audio reciting “In Flanders Fields” by John McCrae to remember our War Dead
