Allan Condemns European Cup Football
From Al Muhajiroun
.... it is strange that Muslims have forgotten their brothers who are being oppressed around the world and instead focus all their attention on supporting the kuffar in a sport based on nationalism. .... And to further rub salt into the wound the kuffar's rejoice in their auspicious kufr (disbelief) ceremony of European Cup Football; a sport in which men are worshipped as gods, and depicted as icons of greatness. Footballers such as Beckham, Henry etc are seen as role models and heroes. Muslims forget that these people are disbelievers in Allah and the Messenger (saw). ... Football players are nothing but people of zina (unlawful sexual acts), alcoholism, nakedness, corruption and kufr. In the past entertainers were seen as entertainers alone even amongst the kuffar, but today they are gods of the pitch.
It is forbidden in the Deen (divine religion) of Islam to befriend one's own family if they are disbelievers in Allah, then how can we befriend those kuffar who are not even blood related. .... The Euro Cup is an event where the evils of nationalism are illuminated, people rally behind a particular nation waving the flags of jahiliyyah (ignorance/evil) even though it is an act condemned by Allah (swt) and His Messenger (saw). Muslims have forgotten that the England flag bearing the St George's cross, is the same flag which the crusaders used as a banner when they launched their savage war against the Muslims in the past. Muslims have forgotten that the England flag represents Christianity. To parade the England flag signifies ones allegiance to the kuffar (disbelievers) and their kufr (disbelief), and Allah (swt) has ordained for the believers not to side with the kuffar, and in the event one allies with the kuffar then Allah (swt) declares that person belonging to the party of the Kuffar. .... O Believers in Allah and the Day of Resurrection, the kuffar murder and torture our people around the world and amidst this they find time to celebrate their religion of football.
O Believers in Allah and the Last Day, remember you have a responsibility to the Muslims around the world, do not befriend, support or ally with the kuffar in any form or manner.
O Believers in Allah and the Final Abode, Allah (swt) has ordained for you to hate, distance and reject the Kuffar and Love, Support and ally with the Believers. ....
