Bakri calls for prayers to mourn bin Laden

Share:

Radical Islamist cleric Omar Bakri who said that Osama bin Laden is one of the great leaders and heroes of the Ummah called for prayers to mourn bin Laden in Lebanon and outside U.S. embassies around the world.

“We call on our followers in Europe, Canada and especially Britain to pray for his soul outside American embassies,” Bakri, said

“We will hold prayers for his soul in the Khulafa al-Rashidin mosque and receive condolences here in Tripoli, and there will be prayers for his soul in mosques in Beirut and Sidon,” added the preacher, who is now based in Tripoli, Lebanon’s main northern city.

This comes after Al Qaeda released a statement on jihadist forums Friday confirming the death of its leader, Osama bin Laden, according to SITE Intelligence Group, which monitors Islamist websites. The development comes days after U.S. troops killed bin Laden in a raid on a compound in the Pakistani city of Abbottabad.

Bakri, a radical “Salafist” Sunni preacher , who was sentenced to life imprisonment by a military court for inciting murder, was freed on bail last November pending a new trial. He was defended by Nawar Sahili, an MP from Lebanon’s militant Shiite Hezbollah movement. He lives in the northern Lebanese port city of Tripoli.

Originally from Syria but holding a Lebanese passport, Bakri denies having any direct link with al-Qaida and had called the September 11 suicide bombers “magnificent.”

      I think we all know he, being a Salafi extremist), would not be welcome in Syria. He would be more welcome in a country like Pakistan where half of their intelligence community knew bin Laden was lurking in that s$ithole they called a mansion.

    Why is this man allowed to talk to the press let alone why is he free and alive. He was in jail for being one of the leaders in the Fatih Al Islam war the Army had to deal with 4 years ago. If youre going to let him walk around on bail at least put a media ban on him.

    Like a small greycoffee-pot,
    sits the squirrel.
    He is not all he should be,
    kills by dozenstrees,
    and eats his red-brown cousins.

    The keeper on the other hand,
    who shot him,
    is a Christian, and loves his enemies,
    which shows the squirrel was not one of those.

      Christians were the first to kill in the name of god and actually gorge bush who started a war that killed 600,000 people is also christian and said god told him sadam was evil. THIS IS NOT ABOUT RELIGION BECAUSE ALL RELIGIONS WERE BUILT ON LIES AND WAR. This is about a stupid comment you posted. Milosovic is Christian and he killed over 2 million people in Gods name just a few years ago.

        I second that… Religion = The root of all EVIL. God is Love, Religion is Hatred and Satanic Elitism… Read the Scriptures Except for the RED Bible (i.e. the words of Jesus without the interpretation) and you will find KILL This or KILL that or give me the foreskin of this or that… If this is their god, I do not need him.

        I can see your hatred to Christians embeded in your comments without a doubt,your interpretations of christianity thru war actions that was held by one leader is totally absurd,if your are an Atheist or Agnostic it is your choice, you can worship whoever you want to, but don’t call all religions were built on lies and wars,I know what you truly think is totally to the contrary what you have written because you are angry.
        What about the Massacre of Christians by the Thousands that went unmentioned by the media by Moslems and their lunatic president in SUDAN that was going on at the same time during iraq’s war.
        What about the Massacre of Christians in Lebanon ,Who started it?,I wonder!

          Im not angry and I dont hate any one. I dont follow a religion but my parents are Christian so relax about hating….. The posting I replied to specifically mentioned how a Christian loves his enemy and basically referring to Islam as a religion of hate. The Christians in Lebanon also killed Muslims. What Im trying to say is that no one is better than any one. If you take a look at history you will see that Muslims and Christians spread because of war and killing. The people that started the war in Lebanon are the people that made most of the money and they are from all religions. Let me ask you how a country that was dominated by Christians allowed the Palestinians to come to Lebanon armed from Jordan and start a war against Israel in a country that had pretty much never seen war. The Lebanese president said Nasser of Egypt did not consult with him before the order and he did have time to read it so he just signed it and then all of a sudden they just started showing up. The people that KILLED CHRISTIANS AND MUSLIMS IN LEBANON ARE THE PEOPLE THAT ALLOWED THE ARMED PALESTINIANS INTO LEBANON TO BEGIN WITH.

    He’s not alone. I read many similar BS from other Sheikhs and Mullahs all over the Arab World, especially Saudi Arabia.
    It is their view of Islam and they are engaged in an idiological war with the West and all non-muslim. Bin Laden is dead,
    but this dangerous idiology is not. May God have mercy.

    This man and his defenders in Lebanon is the biggest problem in the Sunni community in Lebanon and elsewhere in the world. I am sure he has plenty of supporters who exercised pressure to release him from prison on bail. As far as I am concerned, he should be stripped of his Lebanese passport and extradited to Syria, his original country. Sunni like Hariri, Saniora, and many others denounce Bin Laden and his acts and his followers while this man and many many others support him. Why? Because Bakri and his followers are applying the KORAN teachings word by word: examples: ” Kill the infidels”, “kill all those who do not believe and the Kuffar”, “don’t greet a christian or be nice to him”, etc…..
    In Lebanon, thank God for the Christians and the Druzes who completely oppose such thoughts, and thank god for the educated muslims sunni and shiaa who reject such “leaders” as Bakri and their teachings. Unfortnately, the uneducated muslims are much more than the educated ones and still rule the reaction in the streets. The solution to get rid of Bakri and his likes is EDUCATION and FREEDOM of thought and belief, 2 phenomenons that are coming fast to the Arab world.
