Jihad Must Continue Until All Infidels Convert to Islam or Pay a Poll Tax
2003-11-01
From 2nd Issue of 'Voice of Jihad' Al-Qa'ida Online Magazine, via MEMRI
The second issue also features an article by Sheikh Nasser Al-Najdi, who wrote:
Islam is an all-encompassing religion. It is a religion for people and for regimes
 At a time when people are given the choice [of believing] in Islam or paying Jizya [a poll tax paid by non-Muslims living under Muslim rule], Islam is the only alternative for the countries [of the world.]
 Therefore, the crime of the tyrants in infidel [i.e. non-Muslim] countries, who do not rule according to Allah's law, is an enormous sin
 and we are obliged to fight them and initiate until they convert to Islam, or until Muslims rule the country and he who does not convert to Islam pays Jizya. That is the religious ruling with regard to infidel countries and all the more so with regard to those who rule Muslim countries by way of the cursed law [i.e. a man-made law]
"

So much for the principle of "to each his own," "live and let live," and freedom of religion. The plan remains World Domination™ (insert maniacal laugh, cue salaaming officials in robes and turbans, cue dancing girls... Enter the satrap, a bit portly, his beard hennaed to hide the gray, wearing a large jewelled turban, followed by his Grand Vizier...) To my undeducated eye, there's no difference between this and what Hezb ut-Tahrir is demanding. That might be why we want to beat up on Muslimdom.
