The promotion of ritual human sacrifice and cannibalism has been a
topic of discussion on two Egyptian TV programs recently.
On Al-Tahrir Egyptian TV advisor Ahmad Abdo Maher, discuses the high-
school curriculum issued by the highest religious authority in Egypt,
Al-Azhar University, which encouraged students to cannibalize
apostates and Muslims who abandon praying.
The schoolbook stipulated
that the act can be carried out so long the human flesh is eaten
uncooked in respect to the dead body(!) and that the act “does not
necessitate a governor’s consent or is it punishable by law.”
Hegazy reminded his viewers that when Al-Kasri made his speech that day saying, “O people, sacrifice, Allah accepted your sacrifices. I am now sacrificing Jaad bin Durham.” Al-Kasri then slaughtered him in the mosque on the Sacrifical Day 119 A.H. This set the precedent that using a human being on the Islamic holiday – known as The Festival of Sacrifice – instead of an animal was preferable.
The supporting views on such an edict are so pervasive that even one blog, The Cole Children Forum for Muslim children shares the story, since the account is supported by several of the most forceful theologians during the history of Islam like Al-Shafi’, Ibin Tayymiya, Bukhari, Dhahabi, Ibin Al-Qiyam, Darami and Ibin Katheer.
While Muslim scholars do not question the authenticity of the event, some question the legality of the act, since it is understood that Eid Al-Adha, The Festival of Sacrifice is – according to Islam – the commemoration of Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice his son Ishmael but that he is remembered for sacrificing an animal (not a human being).
However, Abdulaziz Bin Abdullah Al-Rajihi, a respected scholar in Saudi Arabia, expressed support for human sacrifice in at least one speech. Al-Rajihi’s is not someone to be ignored; he is a scholar who educated the previous chief Mufti of Saudi Arabia, the renowned Muhammad Ibrahim Al Sheikh.
Today, Al-Azhar is a part of the Egyptian government and has the power to enact edicts as mandated by the new constitution. Under article 4, it states:
“The noble Azhar is an independent Islamic institution of higher learning. It handles all its affairs without outside interference. It leads the call to Islam and assumes responsibility for religious studies and the Arabic language in Egypt and the world. The Azhar’s Body of Senior Scholars is to be consulted in matters pertaining to Islamic law (sharia).
While cannibalism is prohibited in Islam, exceptions do exist for apostates, adulterers and enemy combatants. The difficulty for some moderate scholars is that such an edict comes from the highest authority of Islamic jurisprudence. Abu ʿAbdullah Muhammad ibn Idris al-Shafi‘i, the founder of the major Shafie school of Sunni Islamic thought, writes:
“One may eat the flesh of a human body. It is not allowed to kill a Muslim nor a free non-Muslim under Muslim rule (because he is useful for the society), nor a prisoner because he belongs to other Muslims. But you may kill an enemy fighter or an adulterer and eat his body.”
Such edicts are even being disseminated by many Muslim clerics in Egypt. Prominent Sheikh Muhammad Hussein Yaqub recently made a speech encouraging the cannibalization of Jewish flesh:
“Our hatred, animosity, and rage toward the Jews grow. Our hatred of the Jews grows when we see them destroying our brothers. Rage boils within us. If only we could strangle the criminal Jews… If only we could strangle the Jews with our bare hands, and bite their heads off with our teeth, not with weapons.”
Sheikh Safwat Hegazy has repeated a similar mantra when it comes to the desire to cannibalize Jews:
“If our rulers let us, we would catch you [Jews] in the street, and we would devour you with our teeth.”
Ahmadinejad's friends want to cannibalize the Jews
Islamic history documents several acts of Islamic cannibalism. In
1148, one criminal named Rudwan fled from the police only to be
arrested, put to death, decapitated, and cut to pieces. Those pieces
were then eaten by Egyptian soldiers who believed that they would
absorb his courage.
Muslim Cannibals (Not for shock)
The phenomenon is not only historic, such ritualistic sacrifices
exist today including crucifixions and cannibalism in Ramallah, using
the flesh of Jews, seen at the :50 mark of this video(above).
There are several beheadings in Syria that have surfaced, where jihadists are seen praising Allah as they watch sheep-style human slaughter. We have the video but it is far too gruesome to show.
While the majority pundits and even historians in the West limit their definition of such acts by defining them as ‘executions’, the facts remain; Islamic inspired beheadings are human sacrifices akin to Aztec rituals.
Such rituals go back in history. Hertado de Mendoza in his The War in Granada during the time of the Spanish Inquisition, recounts that a great number of Muslims – under their leader Tahali – sacrificed twenty Christian girls by beheading and fried twenty friars in boiling olive oil, believing that their blood would appease Allah in order to gain victory against the Spaniards. When the Spanish soldiers approached these jihadists in Ohanez and drove them back, they discovered the heads, laid out in rows on the steps of a church, their hair neatly brushed.
Mendoza mentions a similar situation that took place when the Spanish emperor Charles made an expedition against the Muslim Moors of Carthage, where the Muslims sacrificed five Christian children. They said their prayers and slaughtered them in the hopes that Allah would preserve them from the Spaniards.
Such issues are dealt with by collective denial in the West, where pundits and orientalists romanticize such history. For example, the Muslim warlord who had the greatest obsession with skulls and human sacrifice was Babur, founder of the Mughal Empire, which consisted of India, Pakistan, and much of Asia. Western orientalist Robert Irwin describes the works of Babur thusly:
“This is one of the classics of world literature… Writing poetry, together with fighting, hunting and eating fruit, was to remain a lifelong enthusiasm.”
Some excerpts of Babur’s book should shed much light:
“…the Afghans were not able to put up a fight. In a flash, 150 embattled Afghans were seized. Some were captured alive, but mostly only heads were brought…Those who were brought in alive were ordered beheaded, after which a tower of skulls was erected in the camp.” [7]
“…cut off the heads of a hundred or so rebellious Afghans, which they brought back to Hangu. Another tower of skulls was erected.” [8]
“A league farther down the Bajaur glen we stopped and ordered a tower of skulls erected on a rise.”
Irwin seems only capable of seeing the romance:
“My pact and covenant with my beloved was not thus; he chose separation and left me distraught… what can one do with the whims of fate, which has separated friend from friend by force.” [10]
Babur and his ilk even saw decapitated heads as being used for divination. When his soldier Arghun fought and beheaded an opponent named Ishqullah, he and Babur took the head and esteemed it, “as a good omen.”
When Babur was establishing his power in India, he took the town of Chanderi and “massacred the infidels, and brought it into the bosom of Islam,” after which a “tower of infidels’ skulls was erected on the hill on the northwest side of Chanderi.”
After he crushed the Indians of Khanua, Babur poetically praised the victory, ecstatically recounting how there “were piles of the slain, and towers of skulls” were erected:
“…In every direction the soldiers of Islam went, they found a slain rebel at every step, and as the renowned army camp moved in pursuit of the defeated it found no space devoid of obliterated retinue… Many mountains of bodies were created, and on every mountain running streams of blood.”
But the love of skulls was not just during that Mughal era. In the Islamic play entitled, The Miracle Play of Hasan and Husain, which reenacts the life of Muhammad’s two grandsons and is based on oral tradition, it reads:
“O Muslim, we will cut off thine enemies’ heads to prove our allegiance to thee! We will drink cups of blood from the skulls of thine enemies!”
Human sacrifice is thought to be a thing of the past. It vanished due to the influence of Judeo-Christian civilization. It is remembered in movies like Apocalypto and documentaries on the Aztec Empire. But perhaps we should ask: If the Aztecs are a thing of the past, what will life be like, if the same types of human sacrificial rituals become a daily reality?
