Azad and the rest of the IFE team should really do a re-make of the Village People video.
But who would be who?
I definitely can see Abdul Bary as the Red Indian chief. I guess Abdurrahman Jafar from the Muslim Safety Forum would have to be the policeman with the gay facial hair.
Young man, there’s no need to feel down.
I said, young man, All us Muslims who are brown.
I said, young man, ’cause Jamaat is in town
There’s no need to be unhappy.
It’s fun to be in the IFE, yay!

Ahem. Is it just me or is Azad Ali polishing a fireman’s helmet?
When he hears that muazzin call, Fireman Azad is there on time.
Putting on his jallabiyah and hat, in less than seven seconds flat.
He’s always on the scene. Fireman Azad! And his engine’s bright and clean. Fireman Azad!
You can not ignore, Azad is the bro next door.
Driving down the busy streets, greeting people that he meets.
Someone could be in a jam, so, hurry Fireman Azad.
So move aside, make way. Fireman Azad! ‘Cos he’s gonna save the day. Fireman Azad!
He’s the one we adore. Azad is the bro next door.
When he’s fighting fires, he’s always cool and calm, and everyone admires, when there’s a fire alarm.
He’s great, he never tires. He always sees it through and that’s true.

Hooray for Fireman Azad! And when there’s something wrong.
He’ll always be along to help both you and me Don’t you see.
He’s always on the scene. Fireman Azad! And his engine’s bright and clean. Fireman Azad!

The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said in a hadith: “Verily you shall

Spanning three continents over a period of six centuries, the
Ottoman Caliphate was one the longest lasting empires in history.
This short intensive course aims to cover the following: The Rise

the Ottomans. He has served in various universities including
Princeton, Moscow, Cambridge and Oxford, and is an executive
committee member of International Ottoman Studies Association.
Currently he is president of the Topkapi Palace Museum which

This is why you people will fail.
You claim to have a legitimate interpretation of Islam yet you mock your own brothers and no interpretation of the Islamic sources condones this.
Brother Azad will have a case against all of you on the day of judgement Inshallah.
As for you lot, who make fun of people:
Imam Al-Bayhaqi narrates in Shu’ab al-Eman:
Muhammed (SAW) said:
“As for those people that make fun of people, for them a gate of Jannah will be opened.It will be said to them, ‘Come (and enter).’ That person will come with all their anguish and depression, but when he gets close, the gate will be closed in his face. Then another gate (to Jannah) will be opened and it will be said,’Come (and enter).’ So that person will come with all his anguish and depression. But when he gets close, the gate will be closed in his face.This will keep happening to him until it will get to the point where it will be said ‘Come (and enter)’ and he will not come from the despair of ever entering paradise”
You may get a shallow intellectual kick out of mocking sincere Muslims, but this will clearly be costly.
Fear Allah (SWT), your creator, if you have any humility.
Is it obligatory to have a humour-bypass when one becomes an Islamist, then?
God willing he will have a case against us?
Now, surely it is not so good to wish others ill?
You may get a shallow intellectual kick out of mocking sincere Muslims, but this will clearly be costly.
I’m fully prepared to pay the cost for the intellectual kick we get from mocking sincere Islamists like Brother Azad, not to mention racists, anti-Muslim bigots and other such nasty people.
And HT will have to pay the price of mocking sincere Muslims all around the world who they have condemned as Kuffar simply for not supporting their insane violent political project.
“One day, when he reaches puberty, Faisal Gazi will be able to grow a beard like this”
It’s fun to be in the IFE, yay!
It’s fun to be in the IFE, hey!
The amount of mocking of gay people on here by Spitoonites is shocking
Does Douglas Murray know?
In Jamaati!
Come on, protect our Muslim Lands
In Jamaati!
Come on and join the MCB
With Jamaati!
Come on people, and make a stand
In Jamaati, in Jamaati, in Jamaati (in Jamaati)
Chillax Shitoon babe. I think you’ll find we’re making fun of Brother Azad – not gay people. When you gonna join us in the hot-tub anyway ? You know you want to!!
“Following directions from their Sheikh, Douglas Murray
(“Where a mosque has become a centre of hate it should be closed and pulled down. If that means that some Muslims don’t have a mosque to go to, then they’ll just have to realise that they aren’t owed one. “) the Spitoon crew get to work pulling down mosques”
I’ll go along with that – and I would also suggest that if any place of worship / meeting hall had become such a centre of hate it might be reasonable that it met the same fate.
“I’ll go along with that – and I would also suggest that if any place of worship / meeting hall had become such a centre of hate it might be reasonable that it met the same fate.”
Yes, I completely agree with that.
“[Spittoon] aims to contribute ideas to that intellectual tradition, now losing ground to power structures and religious “orthodoxies”. Ideas which respect ‘a willingness to dialogue, a spirit of criticism, moderation of judgment, philological scruple, a sense of the complexity of things’”.
This is a very grand statement indeed – It’s a shame that Spittoon does not live up to it. I have followed Spittoon for two months and I am shocked by the way in which individuals express themselves, and particularly the targeting of active Muslims in the community.
It is perfectly fine for Spittoon to be a critical voice against religious orthodoxies – but I don’t see why this cannot be done with respect. The Friday Night Caption feature does this site no favours. The subsequent comments which have unfolded each respective caption are highly mocking and crude. This does not allude to real sincerity and a genuine search for the truth.
While I am a practising Muslim, my best friend is an atheist. We can talk of our differences but it is done with love, respect and civility; I seek the truth in my life and am willing to engage with others who have a different opinion, perhaps even against what I hold true, as long as it is done within this particular spirit. The way however in which comments are expressed on this site, and the foul language and tone leave a horrible taste in my mouth….
The truth is that some of the political and cultural practices around Islam can be quite abhorrent at times. I am definately interested in sincere criticism of deviant practices and distortion of Islam’s true nature. However, while some articles on Spittoon appear sincere in their endeavour to reach the truth, others are particularly vile in their tone, and on that basis I would consider those contributions as not being genuine.
As for brother Azad Ali – He is a shining example of someone who is dedicated to serving his community. What-is-more, he has been reinstated back to the Civil Service and is a member of Liberty’s Council – if his views were so abhorrent then why does he have this prestigious position in wider British society? Have any of you guys actually met him?? I would be interested to know.
Spittoon – if you wish to be taken seriously as contributing to an intellectual discourse please stop villifying Muslims. I am interested in criticism and the genuine search for truth, but to mock and ridicule others is not becoming of a genuine discourse.
Ghazal, are you the same Ghazal who popped up to defend the Awlaki supporting “human rights” organisation Cage Prisoners? If so, I can’t say I’m surprised that you also support Azad Ali, another Awlaki fan.
faisal will never hit puberty, he senses the drool dribbling down from the tip of his cock, but cos his belly hangs over, he can’t see his cock to figure out what is causing that feeling!
stick to the burqa faisal, it fits you nicely and I’m sure there are many desperate bengali hairy toads out there that would happily mount you for a thump!
don’t be disheartened, you’ll find ur prince soon!
Ghazal.
As I was reading your comment, I was mostly in agreement about the language used on this site. And then I read your remarks about Azad Ali and you lost me 101 percent.
How can you attack us for merely criticising other people on a website – and then go on to defend a guy a who actually believes in blowing up people???
Which is worse in your book? Using bad language about Muslims or advocating murder?
Yossarian – yes this is the same Ghazal and thank you for avoiding the gist of what I was saying. I ask again – is polite language really too much too ask from certain contributors? Freedom of expression is certainly a lofty aspiration, but what ought to be higher in the hierarchy of values is the search for truth. Basic etiquette can help foster the search for truth….
Taking a psychological analysis here…For some contributors on this site there is not a sincere pursuit of truth because they are intoxicated by being provocative rather than a genuine providing of insight. Controversy and difference of opinion are welcoming, but vile language and puerile behaviour are not. As your fingers hover over the keyboard – ask yourselves – what is my intention in posting this? Does this serve to entertain me or am I generally adding to knowledge? Ultimately – would the Almighty be pleased with this?
“Ghazal, are you the same Ghazal who popped up to defend the Awlaki supporting “human rights” organisation Cage Prisoners? If so, I can’t say I’m surprised that you also support Azad Ali, another Awlaki fan”
‘You’re not surprised’ but I didn’t even know – I’m not a member of the Thought Police – and anyway I clicked on your link and all Ali has done is quote Awlaki regarding dawah! What I support is Azad Ali’s community work and the work of Cageprisoners who support tortured people and those detained without trail. I’m not going to spend my day making severely remote connections between people.
Sincere Talib… I am not aware of Azad Ali’s support of suicide bombing but please do enlighten me where you found that out.
I agree Ghazal we should maintain decorum, come on guys he does have a good point.
“Guys Faisal Gazi’s nose is so far up David T’s arse we are going to have to use this crane and suction pump to get him out”
Wow that was odd. I just wrote an extremely long comment but after I clicked submit my
comment didn’t appear. Grrrr… well I’m not writing all that over again.
Anyways, just wanted to say fantastic blog!
Hello there! This is kind of off topic but I need some guidance from an established blog.
Is it hard to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty fast. I’m thinking about creating my own but I’m not sure where to start. Do you have any tips or suggestions? Cheers
Do you mind if I quote a couple of your posts as long as I provide credit and sources back to your weblog?
My blog site is in the very same area of interest as yours and my visitors would certainly benefit from a lot of the
information you present here. Please let me know if this alright with you.
Thanks a lot!
