Ramadan has just begun and while most Islamic adherents simply pray a significant count of others gear up for martyrdom and rewards in paradise: “terrorist groups such as the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL) and the Taliban in recent days made their annual call to arms as Ramadan approaches, claiming Allah exceptionally rewards martyrdom during the holy month.”

There is no other religion but Islam that invokes the tenets of its faith to commit violence against unbelievers and even sanctions the death penalty upon those Muslims who choose to become “disbelievers”….

And prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may strike terror into the hearts of the enemy of Allah and your enemy and others besides them whom you do not know, whom Allah knows. (Qur’an 8:60) I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieved, so strike [them] upon the necks and strike from them every fingertip. (Qur’an 8:12)

Then, when infidels become terrorized and fearful, they are deemed to be “Islamophobes” and “racists”who are worthy of punishment and disdain.

Zabihullah Mujahid, a spokesman for the Taliban wrote “As jihad is … the best part of worship, doing it on Ramadan is rewarded more than in other months.”

As much as Muslim Brotherhood linked groups fool Westerners into believing that the Islamic State and Al Qaeda have nothing to do with Islam, such groups routinely invoke Islamic texts and pray fervently right before committing their atrocities. Recall, the jihadist Easter church bomber in Sri Lanka spent hours praying in a mosque before his attack on peaceful Christian worshipers. In many reports Yazidi women talked about how their Islamic State captors prayed before raping and torturing them because they knew that raping infidel “slaves” was sanctioned by their religion.

From rapes and torture to murders and persecution, the world is tormented by those adherents of Islam who execute their religious duty of abuse and hate against infidels.

Robert Spencer discusses in this interview (@8:00) why Ramadan is considered the month of jihad and how devotion to Allah is the motivator.
