As RIA Novosti reports, turning to believers during Friday prayer, the imam of the Mosque “UMM al-Maarik” (“Mother of All Battle”) Aberzozak al-Saadun, said that today the duty of all Muslims “threaten American interests, wherever they are, to set fire to them and drown their ships. This is jihad in the name of Allah!” he said.
“Jihad,” said the imam, speaking with a preaching in the mosque built at the direction of Saddam Hussein after the 1991 war, “the duty of every Muslim, including women who can fulfill him without the permission of her husband” (it is known that the Urash Muslim should not leave her own house without permission).
In the face of American aggression, As-Saadun said, Iraqis, despite the fact that they belong to various religious movements, nationalities and speak different languages, should be “united as brothers”. “If we are brothers,” he said, “Allah will give us victory.”
Iraq will become a “grave for the aggressors,” Imam assured his flock, and the Muslims who died for the truth will “go to heaven” and become fallen and always living heroes (shahids).
“We will fight,” he said, “despite the superior number of aircraft, tanks and missiles. Allah with those on whose side is true. He is stronger than Bush and Blair.”
The imam of the Mosque "UMM al-Maarik" called the President of the United States and the Prime Minister of Great Britain "criminals" and called on the peoples of these countries "rebel" against them.
