According to a hadith, Muhammad said, “War is deceit.” (Bukhari 4.52.268)
It wouldn’t be surprising if this were happening in other places as well. I’ve lately encountered an increasing number of ex-Muslims who have an animus toward me for no clear reason, although they say largely the same things I do. Some turn out when one digs a bit deeper to be indefatigable apologists for Islam, although the deception is thick and skillfully executed.
“Atheism And Virus Of Taqiyyah In Muslim Communities,” by Leo Igwe, Modern Ghana, June 15, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Since the arrest and detention of Mubarak Bala, the atheist community in Nigeria has been afflicted by a more virulent form of Taqiyyah. Some Muslim individuals, who are seeking to fulfill imagined protective duties, have reached out to atheist and humanist organizations.
These questers for this-worldly and otherworldly gains, desirers of Ummah capital, and transcendental mileage have been the prowl. Even before the arrest of Bala, Taqiyyah Muslims were there. Taqqiyyah lurked in the underground atheist movement and is linked to Bala’s arrest, the outing of atheists, and a clampdown on freethinkers in the region. In the post-Bala-arrest dispensation, Taqqiyah is taking a more insidious and desperate dimension as Muslim zealots seek to consummate their jihadist intent.
From the Arabic word, waqa which means to shield oneself, Taqiyyah is a practice in Islam of concealing one’s religious dispositions due to threats of murder and persecution. It is deployed as a protective gear for Muslim individuals or communities especially minorities living in majority sections. In the context of the atheist movement, Taqiyyah Muslims are double-faced Muslims who deceive and lie about their identity and intent.
They have a real face, which represents their authentic Muslim identity. And the other face which they assume to commit mischief. Amphibian in nature, Taqiyyah Muslims display abilities to blow hot and cold at different times, and claim to hold religiously contradictory positions. They approbate and reprobate for the sake of Allah and Islam. Taqiyyah Muslims present themselves as atheists while concealing their Muslimness. They pretend to be ex Muslims or non-Muslims. They infiltrate atheist networks mainly to gather information for their Muslim sponsors and interest groups. These special forces of Mujahideen spy for the Islamic establishment where their genuine loyalty lies. They are the secret service agents of the Ummah. Taqiyyah Muslims indulge in religious espionage. They strive to fulfill a sacred obligation that is confessionally meant to earn them Allah’s reward in the hereafter. Simply put, Taqiyyah is a religious duty. Atheists in Muslim dominated communities are in danger not really because Allah exists and has the power to harm or punish them in any way. Atheists are endangered mainly due to the treacherous exploits of Taqiyyah Muslims.
Some Taqiyyah Muslims are members of various atheists, humanists, and freethought groups. In most cases, they are dormant, and seldom participate in physical meetings. These Muslims joined in lodging a petition against Bala and in supplying information to those who brought the petition. Recently some persons outed a former Taqiyyah Muslim, who is gay to highlight his hypocrisy. This Taqiyyah gay Muslim used fake and multiple Facebook identities to infiltrate atheist networks and gathered information about atheists and atheism in the region.
It is these Taqiyyah Muslims who compiled the so-called list of atheists that the petitioners said they would use to “pick up” other atheists who would be prosecuted along with Mr. Bala.
Since the arrest of Bala, two persons have been exposed as Taqiyyah Muslims who are trying to out and implicate atheists. They used multiple Facebook accounts to disguise and hide their real identities. They used these accounts to contact atheists pretending to be in danger. These fake ex-Muslims asked for support or asked to join the humanist organizations. They set up accounts and used them to send known atheists friend requests on Facebook.

MURDER OF APOSTATES … A COMMAND OF MOHAMMED …
Mohammed commanded the killing of apostates, and promised eternal rewards for doing so:
“When I relate to you the words of Mohammed, by Allah, I would rather die than bear false witness to his teachings. However, if I should say something unrelated to the prophet, then it might very well be a lie so that I might deceive my enemy. Without question, I heard Mohammed say, “In the final days before Redemption there will emerge groups of foolish youths who will say all the right things but their faith will go no further than their mouths and will flee from their religion like an arrow. So, kill the apostates wherever you find them, because whoever does so will be rewarded on Judgment Day.” -Sahih Bukhari 9,84,64
A REAL STORY OF APOSTATE-MURDER ENDORSED BY AL AZHAR UNIVERSITY FATWA DEPARTMENT
In 1992, Islamist militants gunned down Egyptian secularist Farag Foda. Before his death, he had been declared an apostate and enemy of Islam. During the trial of the murderers, Al Azhar scholar Muhammad al-Ghazali testified that when the state fails to punish apostates, somebody else has to do it.
The murderer of Farag Foda got early release from his murder sentence and said he was not sorry.

This is exactly how Muslims think. Ghana authorities would not likely act this way in appeasing Jihad murder–but that would be cold comfort to the victims.

Ghana: Muslims pose as ex-Muslims to compile lists of atheists for prosecution
………………
This is *just terrifying*.
And have them “prosecuted” by whom? Ghana is over 70% Christian, and Muslims make up about 17% of the population. It is about 5% Atheist and Agnostic.
Ghana has had a few minor slips, but basically has a pretty high level of freedom of religion–certainly, they are not prosecuting Atheists, and are not singling out former Muslims.
It is Islam which does not allow anyone to leave the faith, and has the death penalty for apostasy. My guess is that this “prosecution” means the vigilante murder of ex-Muslims.
Agostino Armo Pellegrini says
Ghana: Muslims pose as ex-Muslims to compile lists of atheists for prosecution
I find this especially troubling because I consider myself to be an agnostic/atheist kind of thinker. I can accept the right of any religion to exist if it’s law-abiding and not harmful to the general good of all. But as we all know islam’s central theme is violent proselytization under threat of death against atheists as well as “unbelievers” and apostates. This is a direct attack on my inalienable right to think independently and free of religious intimidation. The koran and hadith are saturated with threats of violence and intimidation against unbelievers (a.k.a., “infidels”), those doctrinal writings literally glorify violence against us non-muslims. They kill and bicker among themselves for the same religious reasons. To me such writings are as harmful to peaceful society as were the worst writings of Hitler’s regime and propaganda, and the collective violence muslims have been doing for those writings are on a holocaust level of destruction. And that’s not hyperbole for me to say that, millions have been murdered or terrorized for islam’s religiopolitical doctrines that muslims espouse as divine truth. Any fair-minded historian with any credibility will confirm the truth of what I just said.
I’m not trying to be intellectual here, I’m simply trying to defend my average-Joe right to live and think freely of islam’s intimidating and murderous tactics. I don’t have to live intimidated for any religion, especially a retarded, idiotic one like islam. I know that islam is corrupt in its primary intent, and it is evil in its denial of human rights. Islam is politically motivated in the same way that fascism is motivated, and I don’t have to cower to its bad influence one bit. Islam’s violent elements should be outlawed in the West as it contains terroristic threats against all non-muslims, and those “threats” manifest as real world murder and terror every day around the world. We know this is true because the muslim terrorists themselves reveal the source of their inspiration which is the teachings and traditions of islam, or if they don’t, their motives are readily discernible from the available evidence. It can’t be a “religion of peace” when it commands the death or violent subjugation of unbelievers, apostates, gays, and all non-muslims. That’s a manual for bigoted conquest, not a peaceful plan for humanity.
Islam is a violent ideology that is destroying the peace and future prosperity of the West, I know it, you know it. It’s time our politicians and leaders accept this reality and start enacting laws and measures to prevent its growth and negative influence. Muslims are fomenting terror and social unrest with their unrelenting, unbending dedication to islam’s jihad quest for domination. That dedication may be in the form of murder and terror; or less lethal methods like political chicanery, lawsuits, subtle threats of violence, or the general dissolution of our culture and laws by any means available. But the end result will be the same, the ruination of our freedoms and security–our nation–for a Medieval superstition built on ignorance, bigotry, and jihad violence. Speaking as an atheist and a human being, I find that outcome appalling beyond all words and description.
Solution: Be ever-vigilant against islam. Stamp out its corrupting influence with every legal means at our disposal. We must respect ourselves more than muslims respect their demon’s retarded and evil desires against us.

Good post, Agostino. That these Muslims are doing this is a country that is anything but Muslim-majority shows how emboldened they are. I hope Ghana authorities come down hard on these thugs.

We have plenty of such Taqiyya worms masquerading as intellectual atheists and most of them have become the pet of their cronies from the lib left. Most of these slimy creatures, U will find in the Indian movie industry Bollywood.. These taqiyya worms go around the world at various left-lib platforms and spew hatred against conservatives…. cleverly worded political speech that is actually a cover for their deep rooted religious hatred of the khafir, esp Khafir leaders… Javed Akhtar, Naseeruddin Shah, the Idiot Bolly Khans, Shabhaana, Farhan and many others in high and sensitive positions.. These worms,, IMHO, are even more dangerous than the overt Jehaadis. because U at least know what is coming..
