Ramadan is traditionally viewed as the most holy and spiritual month in the Islamic calendar, a time of penance and temperance.
For 30 days, Muslims abstain from drink and food during sunlight hours and believe that God is at his most forgiving during this time.
Mosques are consequently fuller than usual, typically packed with worshippers seeking divine mercy and blessings.
Juxtaposed alongside that ascetic puritanism is the view of radicals who regard Ramadan as a month of conquest and plunder.
They believe it is an opportune moment to double down on their millenarian war against civilisation and therefore launch more attacks than normal.
Many even believe the only path to heaven is to kill Kaffirs, that’s you and me, during the month of Ramadan
Indeed, al-Qaeda’s official chapter in Syria, the Nusra Front, recently described it as “a month of conquests.”
As Ramadan approaches every year, Islamist leaders encourage supporters around the world to; “Get prepared, be ready to make it a month of calamity everywhere for the non-believers… especially for the fighters and supporters of the caliphate in Europe and America.”
‘Path of Allah’
The belief in Ramadan as a month of war comes from Islamic history itself.
The Prophet Muhammad waged his first jihad, known as the Battle of Badr, during Ramadan in 624.
Eight years later he also conquered Mecca during the month of Ramadan, thereby claiming the city which houses one of Islam’s most holy sites today: the Kaaba.
The recent ISIS threat to destroy the Prophet’s tomb caused shock across the Islamic world – raising the question of why IS might choose to bomb the burial site of Islam’s most central figure?
IS adopts an ultra-literal and puritanical form of Islam that – contrary to most Muslims – believes the Prophet’s Mosque is actually a shrine, because the Prophet is buried within its confines.
As a result, they regard it as distracting people from the worship of God alone and believe the site should be demolished.
That kind of thinking fuels the radical belief that jihad is, in itself, much more than just a militaristic action. It is also seen as an act of worship akin to ordinary ritual acts and is fought “fi sabil Allah” (in the path of Allah).
Abdullah Azzam, who is often referred to as “the godfather of modern jihad” because he led the original Arab foreign fighters in Afghanistan during the 1980s, argued that “neglecting jihad is like abandoning fasting and praying.”
Later, he wrote, “jihad is the most excellent form of worship, and by its means the Muslim can reach the highest of ranks [of paradise].”
Extremist interpretations
Ordinary Muslims rightfully despair at these interpretations of jihad and its link to Ramadan.
For them it is a month of restraint and reflection – but such is the crisis of modern Islam that extremist interpretations of the same idea are resonating more clearly with young Muslims who are taught that if additional prayer and alms giving is encouraged in Ramadan – then why not more bloodshed too?
View it that way and you understand precisely the line of reasoning that has given rise to such a grisly and gruesome death toll over recent years.
What to Expect
With ISIS virtually defeated in the Middle East its remaining rag bag of fighters have all run home to the safety of their respective welfare states.
And they have vowed to re-group and attack civilized people again, in their own countries.
This is bad news for the likes of Canada, Sweden, Germany and other European countries who have promised to welcome returning ISIS fighters with open arms, stating that they have much to contribute to their societies.

Left-wing Liberal nut case and ISIS sympathizer Justin Trudeau, the future ex-Prime Minister of Canada, went as far as saying ‘They’ll Be An ‘Extraordinarily Powerful Voice’ For Canada.
Luckily for Americans they have Donald Trump in charge who is having none of that and the Muslim travel ban remains. In fact it is being quietly reinforced this month.
Sadly, for the rest of the Western nations, whose governments have allowed this Islamic savagery into their countries, the threat you all face this month is palpable.
It is real, there will be bloodshed and lots of it. I won’t attempt to reinforce this comment here as it will take too long.
But do your own research and find out how many savage attacks there have been on innocent, undefended people, during the Holy Month of Ramadan and you will see for yourselves that it may be a good idea to stay locked up indoors for a month.
That’s where your progressive Liberal, Left-Wing politics has left you. Locked up under the stairs until it is safe to come out.
And one day, it never will be. – Albert Jack
