Thanks to the Arab Spring he may get his wish.
Following are excerpts from a public address delivered by Egyptian cleric Mazen Sirsawi, which aired on Al-Hekma TV:
Mazen Sirsawi: The Caliph Al-Mahdi, the Emir of the Believers, was like a sword on the necks of the infidels, apostates, and heretics. Whenever he heard of a heretic, he summoned him, no matter what. Even when he was on his deathbed, they brought before him some treacherous heretics, who toy with religion.
One of them was brought before the Caliph, who was drawing his last breath. The Caliph said: “By Allah, if I have only two words left, I say: Kill him! I will seal my life with “Kill him!” He said: “Kill him, and chop off his limbs, one by one, so that I will please my Lord.” They did as he wished, and the Caliph counted the limbs and said: “Allah, I have done with him what pleases You. Enable me to do the same to all his ilk.”
Anyone who wants to affront the shari’a and become a heretic, anyone who behaves stupidly, thinking that this is a game, should not think that this will go unpunished. Today, these criminals want us to become used to this. They want us to hear this and remain silent. When someone curses our Lord, [they want us to say]: “Never mind, this is democracy, freedom, and so on. Let’s keep quiet about it.” Absolutely not! This will never be. One must never remain silent before the people of Falsehood. When Allah made a covenant with the people of knowledge, “You shall make it known to people and not hide it.” Beheading them should be easier than cutting the buttons off their shirts.
