But don't ever lose site of the fact that the real threat to world peace is Islamophobia.

Al-Qaeda's broadcasting arm Al-Sahab has released
an audio lecture that sets the standards of
friendship and enmity with infidels as defined by
Islam. The lecture is delivered by Abdul Samad, a
militant Pakistani cleric who speaks in Urdu.
The lecture is titled "Standards of Friendship and
Enmity in Islam." It was released through various
jihadi forums with a link posted on the U.S.-based
website Archive.org. Citing Koranic verses, Abdul
Samad says Muslims should never form friendships
and relationships with infidels, which is necessary
for the success of Muslims in forming unity.
Citing hadiths and Koranic verses, Abdul Samad
argues the following points:
i) The most powerful and binding relation is Islam.
ii) The believers, who do not disassociate
themselves from nonbelievers and do not
distinguish their ranks from people who have
interest in worldly things, can never serve Islam
effectively.
iii) Our friendship and enmity should only be for
Allah's cause.
iv) Our friendship, relationship and love should only
be with the people who believe in Islam and Allah
as the ruler.
v) The people, who do not accept Allah as the ruler
and do not believe in Islam are our enemy and we
should disassociate ourselves from them even if
they are our close relatives and from our tribe.
vi) The infidels, whether they are the Jews or
Christians, atheists and polytheists, are the real
infidels and are the enemies of Allah's faith (Islam).
vii) The Koran has termed friendship with Kuffar
(infidels) as a sign of disunity and unbelief, as it is
associated with the foundations of belief.
viii) The people declared by Allah as our enemy can
never be our friends.
ix) The non-believers are the enemies of our elderly
people, women and children. They kill the Muslims
with bombs either in Kashmir, Iraq, or Palestine.
There is hardly a day when a Muslim escapes their
cruelty.
x) They open several fronts (against Muslims) after
entering a region. One of their fronts is education.
They used it in the Egypt and Turkey; and they
currently use it in Pakistan against the Muslims.
xi) Our enmity towards Hindus is not due to the
Kashmir issue; our enmity towards America is not
due to Iraq and Afghanistan; the enmity between
us and the Jews is not due to the Palestine; the real
cause is that they do not accept our system and
Islam.
xii) Our enmity towards them (the non-believers)
will continue even if they renounce all their crimes.
xiii) Enmity towards infidels is a must. It is part of
our faith. Islam says the Muslims should stay away
from the infidels and their countries.
xiv) The best way to get rid of them (infidels) is to
continue jihad until the Allah's faith (Islam) is
completely enforced all over the world.
