If a preacher of any other faith had thanked the deity for the coronavirus and wished it upon those outside the fold, it would have been international news. But no one will take any particular notice of this.
“Egyptian Islamic Preacher Mohammed Al-Hefnawi Al-Ansari: Thank You Coronavirus for Shutting Down Cinemas, Coffee Shops, and Whorehouses; May Allah Use This Virus to Annihilate the Infidels and Shiites,” MEMRI, April 8, 2020:
Egyptian preacher Mohammed Al-Hefnawi Al-Ansari said in a video that he uploaded to his YouTube page on April 8, 2020 that the coronavirus pandemic is actually a good thing because it enjoins good and forbids evil by causing Muslims and infidels alike to stop using cigarettes and hookahs and to shut down pubs, coffee shops, cinemas, and whorehouses. He prayed for Allah to remove the coronavirus from upon the Muslims and to use it to annihilate the infidels, tyrants, atheists, and Shiites.
Mohammed Al-Hefnawi Al-Ansari: “Thank you corona! This pandemic that has spread everywhere is good despite being a plague. When the people stopped enjoining good and forbidding evil, the coronavirus came to enjoin good and to forbid evil. By the order of Allah, Who has imposed this plague upon us, the coronavirus has made them shut down all the pubs. The coronavirus has made them shut down all the pubs. The coronavirus has made them shut down all the coffee shops. They have banned hookahs and cigarettes. The coronavirus has made them shut down cinemas all over the world – among Muslims and infidels alike. It happened in Islamic countries and in infidel countries alike. Thank you corona! The coronavirus has made them shut down all the whorehouses worldwide.

“Oh Allah, relieve the Islamic nation of the coronavirus, and use it to annihilate the infidels. Oh Allah, relieve the Islamic nation of the coronavirus, and use it to annihilate the tyrants, the infidels, and the atheists. Oh Allah, use the coronavirus to annihilate the Rafidite Shiites, and deliver the Muslims from this plague.”

Well, Hell, fellows, at least the old dog’s heart is in the right place…(His adding the Shiites, shows this best…)…We should isolate all these inbred cult followers in the middle east, and let them kill each other…

Response to LDH: the strategy of isolating fanatics in Syria and Iraq has led to very expensive foreign wars. The cheapest way to end Islam is for Western governments to fund counterjihad counter-ideology to expose and condemn Islam’s internal contradictions and brutal, amoral opportunism. Muslims leave Islam when they see that the Koran is of human origin.

correction: the normal human reluctance to USE violence … our normal human tendency to avoid violence
DiploNerd says
YES! Thank you, Mortimer. Spot-on. As for this guy, just notify Dar al-Ifta in Cairo and send them a copy of this video. They will probably suspend his authority to preach in any mosque in Egypt. At least I hope so. The more people who report him, the better. (You can message them on Facebook.) Reporting him won’t cure him of his stupidity, but we do what we can do.

Mortimer, you have never said how many Muslims you yourself have “deprogrammed”.
Boromir's Horn says
Isn’t it interesting that the mental disorder of Islamism is so closely aligned to that of leftism. This pandemic brings into fold that analogy, with both parties using the virus as a wish list to destroy anyone who doesn’t agree with them.
mortimer says
Islam uses self-hypnosis to create ‘overvalued ideation’. This self-hypnosis violates and contradicts the normal human reluctance to avoid violence. The ideology of Islam praises and solicits this violent behavior in opposition to human nature. Islam is a genocidal (‘us-against-them’) ideology. It is not strictly speaking a mental illness.
Muslims leave Islam as soon as they see that Mohammed is an immoral cult leader and that the Koran is of human origin. Most Muslims today do not want to act like Mohammed, so we are half way to our goal of deprogramming Muslims. They are gradually rejecting point after point of what was taught by Mohammed.

Well, they seem pretty crazy to me

So peaceful…

It’s a good idea to pay attention to this expression of wishes, especially because it’s shared by 1.5 billion individuals who are about to embark on a month-long deepening of their religious fervor by practicing deprivation and putting into practice the directives of their religious movement.
A sane population would take extra precautions for their safety during this upcoming frenzy of piety.
Mark Berlinger says
Islam is clearly distinct…
by its demands for violence and aggression towards people of other faiths and of no faith.
Quran 48:29 – “Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. Those with him are ruthless against disbelievers and merciful among themselves.”
There is no Golden Rule in Islam.
Beverly says
There is no love either if you discount the love of killing, maiming, raping, enslaving etc.

Yep.
Jaladhi says
“Islamic nation” – delusional as usual What if allah destroys Islamic nation as an attribution for not following his orders? Ha, ha,… keep believing in him!!
Jaladhi says
Oops correction: “..nation as a retribution for not following his orders? Ha, ha,… keep believing in him.”
mortimer says
Quoted prayer: “Oh Allah, relieve the Islamic nation of the coronavirus, and use it to annihilate the tyrants, the infidels, and the atheists.”
That pretty well covers any person who is NOT Sunnite jihadist. They just hate EVERYONE … that’s an easy creed to understand.
Apparently, this moron doesn’t realize that whore houses, cinemas AND mosques are closed. That gives Egyptians more time to read Jihad Watch.
This mullah must be in the Muslim Brotherhood … his prayer is a not-so-veiled attack on the ‘tyrants’ of the government of President al-Sisi.
I am sure the Egyptian secret police is watching this fellow and his associates.

Well, it’s also made them shut down most of the shops, the restaurants, the schools, the universities, the churches, and at this rate it might soon include the hospitals! In fact, all of human civilisation as we know it could shut down, but that would no doubt please Allah and the Disciples of the Great Prophet since we’ll all have to descend to their level of ignorant antediluvian barbarism (not that they’d notice the difference, since they never seemed to understand the concept of ‘civilisation’ in the first place). However, I’m surprised that Preacher Mohammed Al-Hefnawi Al-Ansari is so pleased about closing down the whorehouses, since that should include that great whorehouse in the sky, aka the islamic Paradise. I presume Allah must have a scheme for redeploying all those cohorts of 72 recycled virgins?
don vito says
Mohammed Al-Hefnawi Al-Ansari, the virus has been likened to a soldier of allah, as well as saracen’s faith will protect saracens from the virus. So this prayer, your clericship is anti-allah.
Lydia Church says
Boy, can you feel the “love” too?
If it got any warm and fuzzier, it would be a bomb.
Lightship Chaplain says
Funny how some people want to only kill the people I think are most worthy of doing something with their lives! Additionally I have only seen “liberal nuts cases” in my life, try and carry out death sentences on some of the most decent of people… It all seems a reversal to those who are the most moral in the west!
OLD GUY says
He didn’t get the e-mail on drinking the camel piss as a cure to C-19. Funny he should mention whorehouses being shut down that probably really pisses him off, muslims don’t have much of a problem in drinking, strip clubs and whoring around. Their morals are lower than a snake.
