The president of the right wing National Front Party who is full of hate against Islam, Marine Le Pen, on Monday, July 1st with all audacity and arrogance insisted on repeating the description of the establishment of Muslim prayers in the streets in France as an “occupation”, and this on the eve of the lift of her parliamentary immunity because of these statements. She countered the lift of her immunity sarcastically by saying: “Yes … I do not fear it at all nor do I underestimate it…I hold onto my words and concerning the lift of my parliamentary immunity… I have no problem with that. “

Le Pen proudly announced in an interview on LCI television that she “dared to say what all French think, which is that the prayer on the streets – and I tell them that it is still being established on French ground – is an occupation.” This vindictive insistence is a confirmation of old hatred she expressed through her talk on December 10th 2010, condemning the prayers of Muslims in the street, which she described as an “occupation without tanks or soldiers, but it nevertheless remains an occupation”, which raised the issue of lifting her immunity, and thus the possibility of prosecution by the French judiciary because a complaint has been served as a result, which is a matter that does not concern us, since it is nothing but lie and fallacy, and an attempt to ease tension that prevails among Muslims.

The obvious and unequivocally documented hatred of Islam is no longer difficult, but became general and systematic state policy. The incident took place a month after the statement made by former British Prime Minister Tony Blair on June 2nd of last year, when he said: “There is a problem in Islam concerning the adherers of the ideologies that find their seeds from within Islam and we have to put this on the table and be honest about it.”

Therefore the problem does not lie in a deputy nor in a minister, but in a clear policy on the state level. This approach is illustrated by the clear, unequivocal, scandalous policy of France, full of hate and malice against Islam and Muslims, through tighter security, and the ongoing prosecutions of Muslim scholars, preachers and opinion makers. Hardly a month goes by without hearing about news of a number of preachers deported from France or the arrest of a group of scientists and intellectuals under the pretext of “counter-terrorism”, at a time in which large numbers of Muslim youth groups are trialed under the waning pretext itself.

The hatred of the West and the hatred against Islam, especially in France, we have not experienced it recently, but from the past times of the Crusades, and today it is renewed with multiplied different faces. It is possible for a reader of history to sense the vast difference and the wide gap between the tolerance of Islam for religions and the hatred of the West against the people of Islam. Christian churches have remained intact, preserved for centuries and centuries without any harm. Christians lived in all corners of the Islamic Khilafah practicing their rituals without fear or restriction. While the dark melancholy picture of the reality of “human rights” we sense and see every day, open wars occupy our countries to destroy them, and secret wars at the hands of international intelligence, who arrest, and torture; and bomb Muslims with drones! What kind of civilization is this?! What a paradox between the system of Allah Almighty and the human system by the decadent West?!

It is time for humanity to reveal the reality of the spiteful rotten Western civilization and learn about the Islamic civilization that elevated humanity to its highest levels. It is time for the propagators of secularism to repent for their call and return to their senses and not to be a tool of colonialism but to stand on the side of their nation, which is the best nation brought out for mankind.

أَفَحُكْمَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ يَبْغُونَ ۚ وَمَنْ أَحْسَنُ مِنَ اللَّهِ حُكْمًا لِقَوْمٍ يُوقِنُونَ

“Do they then seek the judgement of the Time of Ignorance? Who could be better at giving judgement than Allah for people with certainty?”
