It’s 6 in the Morning….

Do you know where your children are…err….do you know what country you are in?

Where is this taking place? Is it in Saudi Arabia, or how about Egypt? Nope, this is in the good ole’ US of A. Where just about all is tolerated. Even a religion/ideology that is out to destroy America as we know it. What you are hearing is the adhan, or the Muslim call to prayer.

Although it was absolutely freezing out, early Thursday morning I headed over to the Masjid At-Taqwa. Which is located in the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn. Fulton St and Bedford Ave, to be exact.

I arrived about a half an hour early because I did not want to chance missing the morning call to prayer (Fajr). So I walked around for awhile, waiting until 5:51 a.m. which according to the chart below was supposed to be the time of the days first call to prayer.

Finally the time was 5:50 a.m., so I took out my camcorder in anticipation of what was supposed to come out of the two loudspeakers stationed on the roof. But nothing happened, so I waited around several minutes and after awhile decided to head home. Then as soon as I put my camcorder away and turned the corner, there it came. Like an enemy pounding on the drums of war. At that point I took the camera out of the bag, and filmed the Mosque and call to prayer. Seconds after the call started a cab driver jumped out of his car and quickly walked towards the Mosque’s side entrance. Considering his car was parked only a few feet away from me, I was not sure if he had seen me filming and was going in there to alert them. I continued to film and saw another man facing my direction on near the corner of the Mosque, although I could not tell if he had just left the side entrance or not. Seconds later he turned back to the side entrance, so at that point I decided to pay more attention to my surroundings, than the filming. But I was not going to leave until I got the entire sound bite, which I did.

In English here is what it translate to.

Allah is most great. Allah is most great.
Allah is most great. Allah is most great.
I testify that there is no God but Allah.
I testify that there is no God but Allah.
I testify that Mohammad is the messenger of God.
I testify that Mohammad is the messenger of God.

Come to prayer! Come to prayer!
Come to success. Come to success.
God is most great. God is most great.
There is no God but Allah.

Christians and Jews in the neighbourhood should be outraged by this blatant disrepet of their beliefs. Besides the unnecessary call to prayer, there is much more to this Mosque. I had known in the past that the Mosque was lead by Imam Siraj Wahhaj, originally known as Jeffrey Kearse.

To see if he was still the man in charge, I called the Mosque on Friday and was told that he is still there, but he travels a lot. In other words, he is spreading hate elsewhere. This is from a past speech of his.

“…And [Allah] declared ‘Whoever is at war with my friends, I declare war on them.’ … Your true friend is Allah, the messenger, and those who believe…. Hear what I’m telling you well. The Americans are not your friends … The Canadians are not your friends … The Europeans are not your friends. Your friend is Allah, the Messenger and those who believe. These people will never be satisfied with you until you follow their religion …”

Please keep in mind that this Imam is not the only Muslim spreading hate against non-Muslims in Brooklyn. The Al Noor Islamic school, is spreading the history of Islamic war and conquest.

After listening to the adhan, is that what you want to hear coming from Mosques across America? If not, you need to stay active in this war.
