Masroor the Clueless

The record of Masroor the Clueless

So what has he contributed?

Well, he has expanded the scope of Wassiyat. It’s now even easier to join the higher rate tax club that guarantees you paradise. Of course, the descendants of Mirza Sahib, including Masroor Sahib’s family, are exempt from this tax.

He has stressed the importance of Ahmadi khilafat and is getting ready for a centenary celebration three years ahead of the event whilst keeping quiet on the real problems of the day.

He has stressed that office-bearers must be respected no matter what.

Has extended the scope of chanda to unbelievably noxious, odious and utterly repugnant levels. Money boxes are being sent to children so that they can contribute to the coffers of jama’at Ahmadiyya and make promises of what they will contribute in this box to Waqfe Jadid. They are urged to return these boxes full. That’s right. Get ‘em young. This action alone makes me want to puke. I know many Ahmadis who have found this latest step disgusting and are now talking about leaving as a result of this action alone.

But what about his wise words?

In response to the South East Asian tsunami that took the lives of over a quarter of a million people, mostly Muslims:
Absolutely no mention in the first khutbah. From memory, minimal mention in the second.

In response to the repeated outrages committed against civilian Palestinians including mass murder:
Nothing.

In response to the repeated outrages commited against civilian Afghans including arbitrary bombing:
Nothing.

In response to the repeated outrages commited against civilian Iraqis including murder, rape of boys and women in Abu Ghraib and bombing of wedding parties:
Nothing.

In the wake of the 7/7 bombings in London:
Apologetic press release within hours distancing itself from Islam and the bombings, which at this stage had absolutely no connection with Islam and without an independent enquiry, never will.

Ahmadis, this is your leader.

Is this the kind of leadership Muslims should be jealous of?
