The hadith Biden is quoting is this one: “On the authority of Abu Sa`eed al-Khudree (may Allah be pleased with him) who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah say, ‘Whosoever of you sees an evil, let him change it with his hand; and if he is not able to do so, then with his tongue; and if he is not able to do so, then with his heart — and that is the weakest of faith.'” (Nawawi 34)
Anyway, note Biden’s reference to “the Prophet Muhammad.” It’s standard journalistic practice today to assume that everyone is a Muslim and believes Muhammad is a prophet, so Biden is just following along with the crowd and pandering to his constituency, but it’s still a manifestation of Islamic supremacism. Biden’s handlers would never, ever give him a statement that referred to “our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” But Islam is the Left’s preferred religion, and Islamopandering is the order of the day, so Biden refers without hesitation to “the prophet.”
As long as he is quoting hadith, when will Biden get around to this one? A hadith depicts Muhammad saying: “Fight against those who disbelieve in Allah. Make a holy war…When you meet your enemies who are polytheists, invite them to three courses of action. If they respond to any one of these you also accept it and withhold yourself from doing them any harm. Invite them to (accept) Islam; if they respond to you, accept it from them and desist from fighting against them…. If they refuse to accept Islam, demand from them the Jizya. If they agree to pay, accept it from them and hold off your hands. If they refuse to pay the tax, seek Allah’s help and fight them. (Sahih Muslim 4294)
“Biden quotes Prophet Muhammad’s hadith, wishes US schools taught about Islam,” Yeni Şafak, July 21, 2020 (thanks to Darcy):
Former American Vice President Joe Biden, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, has vowed to address the needs and concerns of Muslim-American communities in the U.S. once he becomes president during an online summit hosted by the organization “Emgage Action.”
Biden’s remarks came on Monday after several prominent Muslim-American leaders endorsed him for president.
Praising Islam as “one of the great confessional faiths,” Biden told attendees of the Million Muslim Votes that he wished U.S. schools taught more about Islam.
“One of the things I think is important, I wish we taught more in our schools about the Islamic faith,” he said, blaming President Trump for “fanning the flames of hate.”
“A hadith from the Prophet Muhammad instructs, ‘Whomever among you sees a wrong, let him change it with his hand,’” Biden quoted. “‘If he is not able, then with his tongue. If he is not able, then with his heart.’”
The 77-year-old leader vowed to repeal the Trump administration’s three-year-old travel ban that primarily target Muslim-majority countries, in what he described as “vile.”
“If I have the honor of being president, I will end the Muslim ban on day one, day one,” he pledged….
“Muslim communities were the first to feel Donald Trump’s assault on Black and brown communities in this country with his vile Muslim ban,” Biden added.
Denouncing Trump’s treatment of religious minorities, Biden promised to appoint Muslim personnel in his would-be administration and work with Congress to pass stalled hate crime legislations if elected to the Oval Office in November….
Ade Fegan says
HAH .. OK Joe
So if you see someone with a glass of shandy .. KILL THEM !
mortimer says
Mohammed was talking about striving in jihad … the quote is about ATTACKING THE KAFIRS to bring them under subjection to Islam … but Sleepy Joe doesn’t know the hadiths or Al Walaa wal Baraa (i.e. hating the kafirs).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOhjQ9qoVJw
mortimer says
Ade Fegan gets it perfectly. If Muslims see a statue of the BVM, they should chop the head off of it. Sleepy Joe just gave Muslim vigilantes an order to attack churches. The Muslims must be laughing merrily.

Biden is encouraging VIGILANTISM, but he’s so out of it, he doesn’t understand the implications.
How can anyone vote for this confused man? He should be in an old folks home.
His brain is deteriorating after his two brain surgeries.
Biden is over the hill and cannot understand the SUBTLETIES of meaning in speech and diplomacy.
He would be an incompetent, confused and disastrous president.

Biden is encouraging VIGILANTISM
………………….
Exactly–but as you note, he has *no* idea what this means in practice.
Biden obviously thinks it means something along the lines of volunteering, or protesting at worst.
mortimer says
GI, the quote from the hadiths is about Mohammed calling Muslims to CONDUCT JIHAD.
gravenimage says
True, Mortimer–but I imagine Biden thinks this is urging people send pithy letters to the editor.
mortimer says
Reply to GI: Is Biden ‘thinking’? His brain is damaged from two brain surgeries. He was reading from a teleprompter something written for him by an Islamist propagandist who knew EXACTLY how insidious this hadith is.
I would like to know who is managing Biden. I cannot believe he still makes any important decision.
If Biden is elected, they will craftily say he is suffering dementia and replace him with a radical VP.
PRCS says
Peaceful protesting, of course.
Reziac says
He wouldn’t BE president. Whoever the DNC picks as his running mate will be the REAL president.
gravenimage says
And that might end up being someone like Kamala Harris. She has railed against President Trump trying to keep Jihadists out of America.
Grace says
Biden will be president for a very short time. I predict Rice will be Biden’s pick for VP. She will lobby for Obama’s third term to take Biden’s place and the Democrats will go along with it. Republicans will, as usual put up a meed objection. This will open a large door for the increasing Muslim presence in our government already. I don’t think most Americans are aware of the end game that’s already in play. The corona virus is the shiny object. Socialist/Marxist Global government is the end game. As the darkness descends the citizens will wake up but by then it will be too late.

There isn’t a muslim travel ban. Biden is an idiot. A Pandering Idiot. What there IS is a ban on ANY people traveling here from countries like SYRIA, where the government will not help VET any of the people who want to come here to be TERRORISTS. Newsflash Biden – we do NOT want MORE Terrorists here! The Terrorist and people who wish death and destruction on the United States would love BIden as President.

Hugh Fitzgerald says
95% of the world’s Muslims remain unaffected by the ban. That’s a number that ought to be repeated ad nauseam.
RichardL says
I wish it was the other way round: 5 to 95…
Cathy says
Yes, that is correct. The ban isn’t against all Muslims, it’s only against those who might be terrorists. And that is not racist, because last I checked, terrorism is not a race.
Daniel Triplett says
Trump’s Travel Ban is better than nothing. He pushed it through a wall of resistance from the Left and the courts just to get it. Perhaps he wanted Muslims banned altogether; only he knows. It’s the President’s absolute unconditional right to deny entry to anyone. He need give no reason. If he wants to ban all people with green eyes, that’s his choice. The language and authority is clear, but the woke courts still hassle him.
Trying to vet Muslims is a fool’s errand. It’s impossible. Vetting Muslims is like vetting water moccasins to pick out the ‘safe’ snakes from the nest.
They’re all snakes and they’re all dangerous.

Keith O says
CJ (Crazy Joe) is being your typical election mode politician, kissing as many arses as possible in as many different ways as possible. All to get his addled mind into the White House again, even if it is only till he is removed for mental incompetence.
The big problem is that he is sucking up to a group who are hell bent (no pun intended) upon the destruction of the US as a free nation and the implementation of a world wide caliphate.
mortimer says
Crazy Joe just asked Muslims to destroy the US ‘with their hands’. Muslims must be laughing, because they understand this hadith is referring to implementing Sharia law and Muslim rule.
Joe, an alleged Roman Catholic, just asked Muslims to start a jihad.
J Morgan says
“..then with his heart — and that is the weakest of faith.’” Biden left an important part of that line out. What a tool.
Trump 2020! KAG
mortimer says
Biden just promoted jihad. Muslims know it, but Sleepy Joe thinks what he did was clever.
Why does a Roman Catholic promote jihad, rather than counterjihad ?
CogitoErgoSum says
This man doesn’t even know his own faith of Catholicism, let alone Islam. He presided over a marriage ceremony between two men – and was proud of it. That will be something for Old Joe to talk about with Jesus when he sees Him. Just think what it would be like if he had to talk with Muhammad about it. Joe, Joe, Joe, you need to re-think some things, Joe, …. if you are able to think at all anymore. Here’s something to think about: become a Muslim, Joe, and then move to Pakistan and keep performing those gay marriages.
Isaac nwaiwu says
So so bad for sleepy Joe no wonder the called him slept Joe always s sleeping in the class
FYI says
I prefer these hadiths of muhammed which show his incredible Wisdom and towering intellect..
“Narrated Abu Huraira;allah’s Apostle said ‘None of you should walk,wearing one shoe only.he should put on both shoes or no shoes whatsoever”
Sahih Bukhari 7:72:746
“The prophet forbade the use of green jars”i said ‘shall we drink out of white jars?’ he said ‘no’
Sahih Bukhari 7:69:501
“The apostle of allah says ‘when any of you wake up from sleep and performs his ablutions he must clean his nose three times for satan spends the night in the interior of the nose”
Sahih Muslim 2:462
There are many more illuminating hadiths Joe ‘hands’ Biden should look at..
Red Pill says
Thanks. I feel enlightened now after those 3 holy sentences. ✨
DH says
I have to agree with you. Muhammad’s brilliance shines throughout the Hadith. Who else would have even considered the possibility of not wearing just one shoe. Here’s another gem:
Why we have Summer and Winter
Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah’s Apostle said, “The (Hell) Fire complained to its Lord saying, ‘O my Lord! My different parts eat up each other.’ So, He allowed it to take two breaths, one in the winter and the other in summer, and this is the reason for the severe heat and the bitter cold you find (in weather).”
Sahih Buckari book 54 number 48
FYI says
“I heard the apostle of allah as saying “The best places to sit are those which provide most room”
Sunan Abu Dawud 41:4802
“Narrated abdullah:A person was mentioned before the prophet and he was told he had kept on sleeping till morning and had not got up for the prayer.The prophet said
‘satan has urinated in his ear’
Sahih Bukhari 2:21:245
“yawning is from satan”
Sahih Bukhari 4:54:509
“Who informed the prophet about the jinns at the night when they heard the quran?He said ‘your father abdullah told me that a TREE informed the prophet about them”
Sahih bukhari 5:58:199
These are all authentic hadith:the internet is a goldmine of awkward quotes by muhammed.
tim gallagher says
Maybe Joe Biden sees a soul mate in Muhammad as they both had dementia. They certainly seem to be intellectual equals from the profound crap Muhammad is quoted as saying in FYI’s quotes up above. I’d say that anything a senile old git like Biden supports, then the opposite would be the right way to go. And the same applies for Muhammad.
John in Indy says
Biden also seems to be attracted to very young girls too.
And does this mean that when _I_ see something which offends me, that I should take direct action to end it?
IMO, islam is not a religion, but rather an aggressive, totalitarian, unchanging, political philosophy which has been infecting the world for far too long.
And yes, I have read the Koran, the Reliance of the Traveller, and other major records of this perversion.
John in Indy
tim gallagher says
Yes, John in Indy, the attraction to young girls might be something else that Biden and Muhammad share along with their vast, genius level intellectual abilities. I agree with your summary of what a vile ideology Islam is, started by that low life scumbag, Muhammad, and, yes, it has been infecting the world for too long.
don vito says
totally agree with your post
mortimer says
Agree with TG … Mohammed had dementia and he made offensive, asinine statements.
Biden was fed those lines by the Muslim Brotherhood and read them from a teleprompter without having a clue he was ordering Muslims to conduct jihad in the US.
The Muslim Brotherhood pulled the wool over Sleepy Joe big time.
Ray Jarman says
When Biden states “…I wish we taught more in our schools about the Islamic faith,…” I completely agree with the proviso that the material be written by the likes of Robert Spencer. Members who are educated and know more about Islam than most of the purported experts at cesspools called think tanks like Mortimer, James Lincoln, Graveimage, et al, who use direct quotes from the Qur’an and other authenticated Islamic writings when expressing an opinion should be the people writing the material that children in the public school system require. The children certainly should not be subjected to material that CAIR provided to the fools of the San Diego School District that insisted that children memorize the five pillars of Islam and recite them which, thank God, was deemed by the courts as unconstitutional.
mortimer says
Biden, like many libtards, looks at Islam through rose-colored glasses.
Biden’s view of Islam is entirely subjective and conjectural.
Biden SAYS Islam is benign. Therefore, Islam IS benign … because that’s what he wants to think.
Biden doesn’t GUESS concerning his money. He carefully negotiates CUSHY POSITIONS and GRAFT payments for to ALL his close relatives.
Biden is promoting discriminatory Islam merely for votes. No real, thoughtful Catholic would ever promote another religion.
Bako Kushi says
I read an article captioned: Republican Groups Against Trump Warn Christians that “Trump is using us” They said the organization plans to spend upwards of $10-$15 in a bid to defeat Trump and elect Democrat, Joe Biden. They’ve spent a lot of time thinking about the last couple of years how to defeat Trump in 2020, for the reason that Trump is using them. This is the most unfortunate development. Let me tell those think Trump is using them, so would tilt their weight and energy to Joe Biden, they are going to regret their actions. No matter how bad they Donald Trump is, he is better for America than the enemies of God and enemies of America.
Red Pill says
Yes they should teach how bad and evil Islam is, so people can stay away from it.
Arnold Jackson says
Biden just gave everyone a free pass on Antifa and the other Commie terrorists.

Yep, he just invited them to be vigilantes. Rip those historic statues down, people! Joe will stand with you as you bash the police with bricks, and then burn down the police stations.
Joe wants you to change the US with YOUR HANDS … clear? Got it?
Message from Joe: Take the law into your own hands.
Conclusion: Joe is an anarchist.
A Gnostic Agnostic says
How much more proof does one need that the Muslims are the real book-worshiping “Jews” who use non-Muslims as “goyim” to destroy non-Muslim nations from within? It is the entire basis of “globalism”. Their art is to pathologically blame/scapegoat their own crimes against humanity onto humanity, such as bigotry, racism, “Islamophobia”, supremacism etc. These are all qualities and characteristics of the House of Islam.
Biden is a Muslim Brotherhood goyim sexually degenerated pig, just as Muhammad was. The entire basis of Islam is rooted in sexual degeneracy and the worship of pedophilia. All of the crimes associated with the “Jews” are actually the crimes of the “believers” in/of Islam.
gravenimage says

The “Prophet” mohammad? List me one, just ONE, “prophecy” in the koran mo made that came true; because the Bible has over 300 prophecies about Jesus, written before He was born, and every one came true. Every. Last. One. Of them, and the ones yet to be fulfilled will happen also. Other than that, it looks as though the “Squad” is in full control of everything Biden does, says or thinks. Woe is us if he ever wins 2020.

I feel like complimenting people.
How interesting, enjoyable, Confirming-fortifying to read this article and Mortimer informed comments and David Wood’s great reaction, with the context and real meaning of this quote.
And what good comments too,
like about the other (stupid) quotes from Mohammed and Biden’s mental state and proclivities
then about Joe Biden’s other message about him favoring gay marriage on TV, so NOT compatible with Islam, so annoying for many Muslims,
And about Biden saying This quote without the part about the heart-variant goes with the least amount of faith. Also deceitful of his handlers.
and The comment that “Muslim ban” is a misnomer and propaganda,
And more. So much to take away in discussions about Biden.
Demsci says
When “someone sees a wrong”. We now know what Mohammed meant, but what is someone who does n’t know Islam very well supposed to think about this? That “a wrong” is a sin, or crime, or bad deed, or something structural bad in society? It’s so vague.
njlamer says
Mohammad was a pedophile .. He raped little boys..

Aren’t inquisitive minds going to ask; hey wait a minute, what then is it that Mohammed considers “a wrong”.and of course what does he mean by “reacting with the hand”?

Unfortunately, most clueless people will assume that Islam considers a wrong just the same as we do.

Isah Abba’s problem is that so many here *do* know all about the horrors of Islam, of Jihad terror and brutal Shari’ah law.

Demsci says
As David Wood explained elsewhere (on CIRA International of Al Fadi in “10 myths about Islam”), in the 20th century Muslim preachers could get away with any twisted explanations of Islam and it’s texts. But now they are under scrutiny as are these politicians quoting Islamic core texts, like Barack Obama (with “If one kills or rescues one person it is as if (s)he killed or rescued the whole mankind”) and Joe Biden.

Justine Trudeau tells Canadians “Islam is compatible with Western secular democracy”. Islamic leaders in Canada state “Islam is NOT compatible with Western secular democracy”.

Black Lives Matter has nothing to do with black lives, they are another Soros funded, group of pathetic followers just like Hitlers brown shirts, their purpose is to cause mayhem—bring down America.
Imam Mazin AbduL-Adhim, living in London, Ontario, the Canadian head of the Muslim Brotherhood hoods Hibz ut-Tharir terrorist group said it all when he said recently, “ Only with a true Khilahah on the Path of Prophethood will the world understand what real POLITICAL LEADERSHIP is.
Then will people understand that our POLITICAL LEADERS must be the best of us ((Muslims)), the most sincere of us ((Muslims)), the wisest of us ((Muslims)), the most intelligent of us ((Muslims)), and the most knowledgeable of us ((Muslims))—-not simply the wealthiest or most famous of us”.
Eli says
Compromising with Islam or Socialism is self destruction, since both of them have the goal to destroy the church. The Qu’ran says to “kill the unbeliever” or anyone who does not believe in Allah. Christians believe in Jehovah, and Obama deceived many Americans. Obama was a Muslim and catered to the Muslim nations, even quoting, something like, they will not live who offend the name of Allah, which is a common statement for them.

You can’t compromise with evil, for it will over take you. We can’t accept teaching and indoctrinating our children in the Qu’ran in our public schools, unless they teach the Bible, too. Islam will have a large foot in the door, if Americans let this happen. Islam is dominating in France and England, because of terrorism, and intimidation. Mosques dominate in London, while French Jews are leaving France out of fear. Muslims are killing Christians and destroying churches all over the world. We can’t let the ignorance of America open the door to Islam. Socialist mayors and governors have already dominated the church the last several months. Please support President Trump to keep our freedoms.
