PJ Media. According to a December 5 Palestinian Media Watch report ,. One of the canonical hadiths—a statement attributed to Muhammad that mainstream Sunni Islam acknowledges as true—which all jihadi organizations regularly invoke has Muhammad saying:.
The martyr [ shahid , one who dies fighting for Islam] is special to Allah. He is forgiven from the first drop of blood [that he sheds]. He sees his throne in paradise…. There are numerous accounts describing combatants going to their deaths with joyful heart, seeing visions of the celestial houri who is calling to them and signaling to them.
I understood he was rejoicing, for he saw the houris. Marco Polo d. If Muslims, particularly of the Salafi persuasion—virtually all jihadis are Salafis—venerate and seek to emulate the world of early Islam, it should come as no surprise that the houris are still working their magic. Moreover, you will enter paradise with four more houris than other martyrs. For just as you stand by me now, so will they stand by you—or under you, or above you—so that you might forget what will happen to you by way of violence, death, and degradation in this war.
We accept the rule of Allah. We implement the Sharia and the Sunna. For another idea of just how pervasive the houri is in Islamic thought, consider its impact on Muslim women. And have no fear, for you will lord over the houris and be their queen.
And, when you enter paradise Allah will remove any jealousy or concerns from your heart. Regrettably, few in the West seem to understand this.
