What the Quranists can do

Activating our scholars in undeceiving Muslims peacefully

Draft concept Proposal from:Sheikh Dr. Ahmed Subhy Mansour

President of the International Quranic Center

Date:  July 2015

1 - Reforming the Islamic Mosques in the United States to defend America in the name of Islam, not to attack America through it

This can be achieved by taking over the fanatic mosques and using them to defend the U.S.

How:

There are more than 1,209 mosques in America; most of them were founded in the last 20 years and are dominated by the Wahabists, making it one of the fastest growing religions in the United States. In addition, there are about 200 Muslim schools, about 500 Sunday Islamic schools, and six schools of advanced Islamic studies in America. Moreover, there is an additional danger coming from the Iranian-influenced Shiites mosques.

The fanatics Wahabi and Shiites Imams are using these mosques in fighting the U.S. from within. Those fanatic imams are actually waging this war of ideas in Arabic language against the U.S, using the American mosques on the American soil, doing their best in brainwashing the majority of the American Muslims.

This proposal aims to enable the U.S. to drive extremists out of these mosques in approximately five years, making American Muslims advocate American patriotism as a part of the Islamic faith. Furthermore, this will enable the U.S. to use these mosques to recruit the open-minded Muslims for overseas missions and organize them to handle the intellectual war against terrorism.

The Project is divided into the following phases:

The Preparation phase: In Such phase the following steps should take place:

• Establishing a supervising committee of four men to oversee the operations. This committee should include four individuals representing: The International Quranic Center, and the F.B.I and Home Land Security.
• Also, establishing an institute in which modern moderate Muslim Imams will be graduated to help in reforming the American mosques.

The Groundwork Phase:

1-     The supervising committee will divide the Quranists into two groups:

A)   Scholars: The scholars will teach the open minded Muslims to be ready to be appointed in any mosques as imams to face the terrorists' culture.

B)  Activists: They will be trained by the F.B.I to be able to infiltrate certain extremists’ mosques where they will work as inside agents for the supervising committee. A list of the targeted mosques will be provided by the committee.

2-     Establishing a website and a newsletter dedicated to monitor the mosques inside the U.S.   Using the activists’ help, the website will wage a reforming campaign against the fanatic imams publishing the Arabic speeches in their Friday-prayers’, events, and ceremonies. The website will also publish researches and books aimed at reforming the American Muslims and counter the Wahabi culture.

      The supervising committee will oversee the work of the Institute for Imams, the website and the newsletter, and the activists. While the institute is working on preparing the new Imams, The website will wage its’ campaign against the radical mosques using the help of the activists, who will also be responsible for monitoring the reactions to the website’s campaign.

      Such reactions will either be leaning toward reform from within the mosque, or to resist the calls for reform. If the mosque board chooses to start reforming, then the new mission will be to monitor the new transition to moderate Islam and insure its’ completion. If the reaction of the mosque board is to resist reform, then they will fight back. This will expose their real goals. Using their own words and acts, the US officials will be able to step in and replace such radicals with the imams graduated from the Islamic institute for Imams.

This is not the end of the mission, however; the committee would have to continue supervising the mosques to safeguard it from any future waves of radicalism.

(2) Reform The Islamic Schools in the U.S.

These schools reflect the dominant Muslim Wahhabi culture, not only by concentrating on hating non- Muslims, but by retaining the culture of the Middle Ages. As a result, these schools are ignoring the abandoned values of Islam, which are the same values of Western Civilization.

It’s useless to reform their religious curriculum; the only way towards reform is to present to them alternative Islamic subjects, the neglected Islamic values of Peace, tolerance, justice, freedom and democracy.

We will provide these subjects as available materials for these schools, calling on the schools to reconsider this in their teaching. We will also publish these subjects in our newsletters calling on the American Muslim community to discuss them and to be an active part in pressing the Islamic schools to uphold them instead of the fanatic teachings. 

If they refuse, then it will be a unique opportunity to discuss this issue in the public eye of the media.  A public debate may disclose some absent facts concerning the secret relationship between some Islamic schools and other fanatic organizations in the Muslim World.

In such a debate, they will be faced with these important questions:

If you really believe that Islam is the religion of great values, why do you ignore this in your courses?

If you claim you did not have the ability to write it in your courses, and information to this end has now become available, why do you continue to refuse to uphold it in your courses?

If you are against the fanatic culture, why do you keep it in your courses?

The final goal is to make these Islamic schools serving Islam compatible with the United States nation in its war against terrorism.

3 - Online War

Briefly:

 It’s to explore & Action together.

To explore the battle field to analyze and detect the Arabic fanatic websites, sort them, know how they brainwash the young Muslims and prepare them to be suicide bombers, how they recruit them, and how they raise fund. To find the best way to defeat them and how to deal with “Al Fatwa”- the verdict or the rule given by the Sheikh – as the most dangerous weapon against them. Also, it is very important to expose the so – called moderate Muslims and sheikhs - who have two discourses, who are deceiving the West and the U.S, while they are working for the terrorism.

In details: This needs four professional groups:

1. Survey Group:

The mission of this group is to survey all the Arabic sites on line and sort them out in different categories.  The group will begin by establishing the criteria that define each site and divide them accordingly. The Arab religious sites have different kinds of moderate and fanatic sites and others in between. They are also having different sects and cults and many lines inside each. It is very important to define the differences between the frank sites belong to Al Qaeda and other terrorist organizations, and the so – called moderate sites, which are more dangerous than Al Qaeda because it have two discourses.

There are also the fanatic secular sites. They are owned by communists and leftists and the Arab fanatic nationalists who are against America and Israel. There are some Arabic sites that are owned by ex- communists who become Muslim brothers. Their discourse is not pure religious but it is strong and very active in fabricating lies and rumors to tarnish the American image.

Finally, there are neutral Arabic sites and other sites which have not decided its goals.

This first group makes this survey and continues its work dealing with any new Arabic site appears on line, and updates the new sites and the new changes inside the famous sites. This group has to educate other group the criterion that defines the fanatic terrorist Arabic website, the different categories of the fanatic Arabic websites according to this definition, the possibility of getting information about the terrorists from these websites and the professional high tech used in these websites.

2_: Investigation Group:

The mission of this group is to investigate the entire fanatic and the so – called moderate Muslim sites.  There are websites seems to be moderates, have nothing to do with the political discourse, concentrating on the religious issues only. For the ordinary Muslim, they seem just religious websites, so they have a millions of partisans. Actually, they are the most dangerous sites. They use the religious tradition to prepare the ordinary Muslim to be fanatic, and then he may become suicide bomber after that.

The most famous moderate web site is Islam online, owned and controlled by Sheikh Al Qaradawy, the spiritual leader of Muslim Brothers. This so – called Moderate Sheikh has a famous bloody fatwa calling to kill all American civilians in Iraq. It is a must to face it and to analyze it.

The Saudis have the biggest number of the fanatic web sites in different discourses. There are the official sheikhs who attack Ben Laden and defending the Saudi Kingdom while they are upholding the same faith and same belief of Ben Laden. There are the sites of some Sheikhs like Salman Al Ouda and Safar Al Hawaly who were against the Saudi regime and put in prison, then were released in one condition: not to attack the Saudi State. Accordingly, they ignore the Saudi policy but focus on attacking the West and the U.S and encouraging the terrorists every where.

Other Saudi oppositions in London have their own websites attacking the Saudi family and the U.S together and encouraging the war against the West. Al Mas’ary and Al Fakeeh are good example for this category. London has many other fanatic Muslims who have famous web sites attacking the Arabic regimes and the U.S and the West. Many of these fanatic websites talk in behalf of Ben Laden, while some of them attack Ben Laden but preaching the same bloody religious culture of Ben Laden but in different tunes and different accents.

All of this jungle of sites has to be investigated thoroughly in order to analyze all the details, especially how they brainwash the young Muslims and prepare them to be suicide bombers, how they recruit them, and how they raise fund, and how to face them.

3- Fatwas Groups

This group is going to be specialized in the new kind of the war of ideas (war of Fatwa).  Fatwa is the religious verdict said by the high leveled Muslim scholars in the past, or in our time. The fatwa controls the daily life of the religious Sunni or Shiites Muslims. The fanatic Wahhabists and Shiites are using the fatwa calling for violence in the name of the Islamic Jihad, so, by their fatwa many of Muslims become suicide bombers. The fatwa issued by Al Qaradawy to kill the civilian Americans in Iraq has encouraged many of the so- called moderate Sunni Muslims to fight all the Americans and it has also endangered the American lives in any Muslim country.

This group (Squad of Fatwa attack) has to face this war of fatwa in many ways, includes, but not limited on:

• Discuss the fanatic fatwas proving the contradiction between them and the Islamic laws.
• Prove the contradiction between Islam and the sacred Sunni and Shiites scriptures of the Middle Ages, which are the resources of the fatwas for the fanatic sheikhs in our time.
• Writing articles to ridicule these old and recent fatwas.
• Prove and highlight the contradictions among the fanatic fatwas, using the continuous debate among the old Imams, and also the same dispute among the sheikhs of our time. This will undermine their credit.
• Issuing a real Islamic fatwas that excommunicate Ben Laden, his people and the so – called moderate as well.
• Prove the other side of the fanatic Shiekhs who seem saints while they are corrupted and very mean. This will undermine their fatwas.
• Restore the old Fatwas of the respectable open minded Muslim scholars in the middle ages which contradict the fanatic Imams and their fatwas.

Some official sheikhs give fatwas to justify the political interests of the regime. This is usually done specially in all Muslim World, especially in the Saudi Kingdom and Egypt. This reflects the enmity between these regimes and Muslim Brothers. So, so – called moderate sheikhs have to issue fatwas to condemn some terrorist crime done by Ben Laden and others. These temporary fatwas contradict other fatwas they issued and contradict the old fatwas of their old sacred imams of the middle ages. The group can use this in fighting them back.

4 -Daily Guards Groups:

This group will search all the Arabic sites to defend America. Some of this team will comment on everything said about America to clear the American image. Other will write article to support the American policy. They will prove that the real enemy to the Arabs and Muslims are not the U.S and Israel. It is the local dictators and the fanatic Wahhabists and Muslim Brothers. They will also make a comparison between the American values and the Arabic Muslim dictators, and how the American Muslim Community enjoys the freedom of belief and speech in America while there is no freedom in the Muslim World. They also will prove to the Muslim World that the American values are the same original Islamic values of justice, freedom and tolerance and loving humanity. This does not mean the American foreign policy has not big mistakes. It has but they are brave enough to admit it and correct it while every Muslim dictator punishes any one who dares to oppose him.

Five conferences for online war against terrorism

The fanatics Wahabis are controlling most of the Arabic websites. Muslim Brothers were the first people in Egypt in using computers for their political cause, so are the Saudis fanatics and others. It is their best way to reach all their secret organizations and cells and individuals in the entire world. They use it in fighting the US even inside the American soil itself misusing the American value of freedom of belief and speech. The American agencies may have the most sophisticated tools to fight them back in the field of high tech, but they are not qualified in facing them in the Arabic websites because it become so wide fields full of different tones and accents inside the Wahabi religious discourse itself.

For example; there are websites seems to be away from the political discourse, concentrating on the religious issues only and in general way. For the ordinary Muslim, they seem just religious websites, so they have a millions of partisans. The Expert Muslims in this field have another opinion. These so – called moderate traditional web sites are the most dangerous sites. They use the religion to prepare the ordinary Muslim to be fanatic, and then he may become suicide bomber after that.

The most famous moderate web site is Islam online, owned and controlled by Sheikh Al Qaradawy, the spiritual leader of Muslim Brothers. This so – called Moderate Sheikh has a famous bloody fatwa calling to kill all American civilians in Iraq. It is a public famous fatwa, what about his Islam online website? It needs a committee to follow it and analyze it.

The Saudis have the most of the fanatic web sites. It is easy to say the Saudi Arabic web sites have many different fanatic kinds of discourse. There are the official sheikhs who attack Ben Laden and defending the Saudi Kingdom while they are upholding the same faith and same belief of Ben Laden. There are the sites of some Sheikhs like Salman Al Ouda and Safar Al Hawaly who were against the Saudi regime and put in prison, then were released in one condition: not to attack the Saudi State. Accordingly, they ignore the Saudi policy but focus on attacking the West and the U.S and encouraging the terrorists everywhere. Other Saudi oppositions in London have their own websites attacking the Saudi family and the U.S together and encouraging the war against the West. Al Mas’ary and Al Fakeeh is the good example for this category. London has many other fanatic Muslims who have famous web sites attacking the Arabic regimes and the U.S and the West: Yaser Al serry and Hany Al seba’ey from Egypt as example. There are many of websites talk in behalf of Ben Laden and Al Zarqawy bur generally; all of the fanatic web sites are preaching the same bloody religious culture of Ben Laden but in different tunes and different accents.

These Arabic website are increasing every day in the entire Muslim world, increasing the real danger to the U.S and the West. The extremely danger is that this Arabic field of war is mostly ignored by the U.S. It is the time to fight them back in this online war.

This proposal aims to fight back in this war to defend the U.S and the West.  

This online war will be supervised by holding five conferences to

1- Explore this new kind of war on line.

2-Analyze the fanatic websites, and how they brainwash the young Muslims and prepare them to be suicide bombers, how they recruit them, and how they raise fund.

3- How to face them.

4- How to deal with “Al Fatwa”- the verdict or the rule given by the Sheikh – as the most dangerous weapon against them.

5-Expose the so – called moderate Muslims and sheikhs - who have two discourses, who are deceiving the West and the U.S, while they are working for the terrorism.

By these five conferences we can:

1- Create a continuous committee to maintain this online war.

2--Establish many web sites to serve in this war.

3- Organize the secular and other open minded Arab scholars and their web sites to be in our side against the terrorism.

4-- Establishing new Muslim generation specialized in this online war.

5- Translating and presenting this unknown field - the Arabic fanatic web sites - to the Americans.
