At a gathering of Islamist extremists near Washington, D.C. last weekend, speakers from Maryland, Virginia, Texas and Pakistan railed against America calling it the “land of infidels.”
The keynote speaker, Habib-ur-Rehman Ludhianvi, a visiting imam from Pakistan who is the principal of an Islamic seminary in Faisalabad, told a group of about 100 that “ignorant infidels” need to be forced to accept Islam.
“They are ignorant and there is no need for dialogue with them. God has given them two options, one is the holy book and one is the stick, and if one does not accept the holy book, they have to be forced,” he said.
Reports from the conferencecame from several Muslims from the Ahmadiyya community that attended the conferenceunder cover.
The conference was held at the Holiday Inn Express in Springfield, Virginia, and organized by two U.S.-registered charities, Idara Dawat-O-Irshad and Khatme Nubuwwat Center, both of which enjoy IRS tax-exempt status.
Ludhianvi, who in the past issuedfatwas against women using cellphone and wearing high heels in public, noted, “The biggest threat that Islam is facing today is the disruption of the family system, for which they [the West] are urging women to go out of their homes.”
