SATAN LIVES IN MECCA

Dear readers,

This is yet another tragedy for our brethren. Believe it or not, here is the truth laid out for you today.

On the 10th day of Dhu al-Hijjah, pilgrims leave Muzdalifah, collecting stones along the way. According to the Sunnah, on this first day (the 10th), they are allowed to collect only seven stones. You might be wondering, what are these stones for, and where are the Muslims heading? Continue reading to understand this bizarre ritual.

Times for Stoning Satan:

On the Day of An-Nahr – the first day of the festival, do not throw stones until the sun has risen:

“The Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) while at Muzdalifah, allowed the weak, elderly, and women to move to Mina before others and instructed them not to stone (the Jamaraat) until after the sun has risen.” [Reported by At-Tirmidhiy]

One with a valid excuse may delay stoning until just before sunset, but it is best to stone after the sun has risen and before it sets for those without an excuse. (Some scholars permit stoning after sunset for valid reasons, but it is better to try to stone before sunset).

The stoning should be done after Zawal (noon when the sun has moved slightly from its zenith) on the remaining two or three days for those not in a hurry.

AT MINA, THE STONING OF SATAN BEGINS:

1. Pilgrims throw seven stones at 'Jamrat Al-Aqabah'. Pilgrims throw stones at Satan in the place known as “Mina” near Mecca. Dear readers, it turns out Satan resides in Mecca. The pilgrims engage in this ritual of stoning Satan.

2. Pilgrims return to Mina and stone Satan again, staying overnight on the 11th and 12th days.

Does Satan have a physical body that can be hit with stones? Can’t Allah defeat Satan without human intervention? This ritual raises serious doubts about this aspect of Islam.

Pilgrims perform this stoning ritual on the 11th, 12th, and 13th days, and they do it at night, not during the day.

This clearly shows that Satan is considered part of this religion.

Dua After Stoning:

It is recommended to face the Qiblah and make dua after stoning each Jamaraat except the last one. A hadith narrated by Al-Bukhari and Imam Ahmad states:

“The Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) after stoning each Jamaraat with seven pebbles, would stand facing the Qiblah and make dua, except after stoning the last Jamaraat.” [Narrated by Al-Bukhari and Imam Ahmad]

Day of Hastening:

If you wish to stay only two days, then on the 12th of Dhul-Hijjah, known as "Yawm al-Isti’jaal" - the Day of Hastening – you must stone and leave Mina before sunset. If you delay your departure and are still there after sunset, you must stay an additional day. It is advisable to stay the third night if you have no urgent matter to attend to.

Tawaf al-Wida:

When you intend to return home after completing the Hajj rituals, perform Tawaf al-Wida (farewell circumambulation) by circling the Kaaba seven times, as done in the initial Tawaf, but this time without performing Sa’ay between Safa and Marwah.

Dear readers,

This religion is not from God, and nowhere in the Torah, the Gospel, or the Psalms does God command the Israelites to throw stones at Satan. That is why I always say that Allah cannot be the God of Adam, Moses, Abraham, etc. Allah's characteristics are entirely different from the God of the Bible.

How can someone in their right mind pick up stones and start throwing them at Satan? Clearly, those who stone Satan are misguided.

MORE OF ISLAMIC RITUALS:

After completing Tawaf al-Ifadah, return to Mina and stay there for the nights of the 11th, 12th, and 13th for those not in a hurry. These are called the days of Tashreeq. It is sufficient to stay for the nights of the 11th and 12th. On these two or three days, stone all three Jamaraat in the following order: start with the one furthest from Mecca (small Jamaraat), then the middle one, and finally the big one (Jamrat al-Aqabah). Throw seven stones at each while saying "Allahu Akbar" with each throw. This is done for three remaining days.

I urge all Christians worldwide to pray for these Muslims who travel by air to Mecca to stone Satan. They are blind and deaf, needing the love of Jesus.

QUESTIONS FOR MUSLIMS:

1. What benefit does stoning Satan provide?

2. Where do we read that Abraham stoned Satan?

3. Why is this practice of stoning Satan only found in the Quran?

I invite you to Jesus, the Great God.
