 <http://globalmbreport.org/?p=5066> Washington Post Fails to Identify U.S.
Muslim Brotherhood Ties of Dar Al-Hijrah

 

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/imgLib/20100812_DaralHijrah.jpg

 

The Washington Post has reported on the Washington D.C. Dar Al-Hijrah mosque
and its imam Johari Abdul Malik. The
<http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/imam-serves-as-public-face-of-an-embatt
led-mosque/2011/08/31/gIQA9vB2cK_story.html> article describes the mosque as
follows:

 

The mosque's name means "land of migration," and every Friday more than
3,000 worshipers from more than 35 countries pack into Dar Al-Hijrah's
prayer hall. Doctors from Pakistan kneel next to hotel workers from Sudan.
Refugees from Somalia pray alongside naturalized citizens from Egypt. It was
founded by a group of Arab college students in the 1980s. Through local
fundraising drives and assistance from a few foreign donors such as the
Saudi Embassy, the congregation bought 3.4 acres in Falls Church and began
constructing a $5 million prayer hall. Today, its immense stone facade -
chiseled with a verse from the Koran and adorned with a minaret and domes -
is just off Leesburg Pike, hidden by evergreens. Its members are, for the
most part, intensely committed to their faith and deeply conservative.
Monday through Thursday, when many Muslims pray at home or near work, Dar
Al-Hijrah regularly draws 200 to 400 worshipers, with many rising before
dawn to get to prayer.

The Post article, however, fails to identify the close ties between the
mosque and the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood. According to the Dar Al-Hijra
constitution,  <http://www.daralhijrah.net/ns/?page_id=172> four of the nine
mosque board members must include the current Secretary General of Islamic
Society of North America (ISNA), the current President of Muslim Arab Youth
Association (MAYA), the current General Manager of North American Islamic
Trust (NAIT) , and the current President of Muslim American Society (MAS).
(Both MAYA and NAIT are components of ISNA.) All are part of the U.S. Muslim
Brotherhood. In 2004, the Washington Post did
<http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn/A14497-2004Sep11?language=printer>
report on the ties between Dar Al-Hijra and the MAS, a U.S. Muslim
Brotherhood group close to the Egyptian organization. Anwar al-Awlaki, the
radical imam discussed in the current Post article had been Imam of Dar
Al-Hijrah to prior to 911 and in July 2005 Shaker Elsayed, the former
secretary-general of the MAS was appointed as the Dar Al Hijrah imam. The
former imam left to become the executive director of the Fiqh Council of
North America, affiliated with ISNA.

 

In addition, an earlier  <http://globalmbreport.com/?p=2339> post discussed
reports that Dar Al Hijrah Islamic Center was scheduled to host a 2010
fund-raising dinner for the ongoing legal fees of Sabri Benkahla, sentenced
in 2007 to 10 years in prison for lying to authorities about training with
militants in Pakistan. One of the three featured speakers was Jamal Badawi,
a leader in many of the most important organizations of the global Muslim
Brotherhood including the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), the
Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR Canada), the Fiqh Council of
North America, the Muslim American Society (MAS), and the European Council
for Fatwa and Research.
<http://www.currenttrends.org/docLib/20090406_Merley2009Layout5.pdf>
Documents released during the Holy Land Foundation terrorism financing trial
indicate that he was (and probably still is), a member of the leadership
structure of the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood. The other two scheduled speakers
at the dinner were Rodwaan Saleh, the ISNA Affiliates Coordinator, and John
Sheldon, Mr Benkahla's attorney.

 

Individuals convicted/indicted in terrorism-related cases that have been
known to have attended Dar Al-Hijrah include:

 

.         Abdurrahman Alamoudi, (convicted in plot assassinate Crown Prince
Abdullah of Saudi Arabia)

.         Mousa Abu Marzook (indicted Hamas political leader)

.         Ismail Elbarasse (convicted of obstruction of justice in Hamas
financing case)

.         Abdelhaleem Ashqar (convicted of obstruction of justice in Hamas
financing case)

.         Randall "Ismail" Royer (convicted member of the Virginia Jihad
Network)

.         Ahmed Omar Abu Ali (al-Qaida operative convicted of plotting to
assassinate President Bush)

Two of the 9/11 hijackers, Nawaf al-Hazmi and Hani Hanjour were also known
to have attended Dar Al-Hijrah.

Assassinated; Had Ties to the Muslim Brotherhood

 

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/imgLib/20110922_BurhanuddinRabbani.jpg

 

Global media is reporting on the assassination of former Afghan President
Burhanuddin Rabbani. According to a CBS news
<http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2011/09/20/501364/main20108832.shtml>
report:

 

A suicide bomber posing as a Taliban peace envoy assassinated a former
Afghan president who for the past year headed a government council trying to
negotiate a political settlement with the insurgents. Tuesday's attack,
carried out in former Afghan President Burhanuddin Rabbani's Kabul home by a
militant who detonated explosives hidden in his turban, dealt a harsh blow
to efforts at ending a decade of war. President Hamid Karzai cut short a
visit to the U.S., calling on Afghans to remain unified in the face of
Rabbani's "martyrdom." Rabbani's death came days after a daytime assault by
insurgents on the U.S. Embassy and NATO headquarters, deepening a sense of
insecurity in the capital. Special Section: Afghanistan NATO commander: 27
dead from Kabul attack Kabul attack a bad sign for Afghan security. NATO
said in a statement that two suicide bombers were involved in the attack on
Rabbani, both of them men who had feigned a desire to reconcile with the
government. It was unclear if a second bomber was able to detonate his
explosives. Afghan officials, however, insisted there was only one attacker.
Four of Rabbani's bodyguards also died and a key presidential adviser was
wounded in the bombing, they said.

 

The CBS report goes on to note the strong Muslim Brotherhood ties of
Rabbani:

 

Author and CBS News analyst Jere Van Dyk called Rabbani's death "historic
and extremely dangerous for Afghanistan." Van Dyk met Rabbani in 1981 and
last saw him in late 2006. Rabbani was a follower of the Muslim Brotherhood
intellectual Sayeed Qutb, who was Osama bin Laden's favorite author and
probably had the greatest intellectual influence on al Qaeda, Van Dyk
reports. In an interview in 2006, Rabbani told Van Dyk that he brought
Qutb's books to Kabul, thus introducing the group's fundamentalism to
Afghanistan.

 

A previous  <http://globalmbreport.org/?p=1370> post discussed a Spring 1993
meeting in Afghanistan in which Rabbani participated that also included:

 

.         Gulbuddin Hekmatyar (controversial former mujahedeen also with
ties to the global Muslim Brotherhood)

.         Mustafa Machour (Supreme Guide of the Muslim Brotherhood)

.         Kazi Hussain Ahmed (Head of the Pakistani Jamaat-e-Islami, an
Islamist group close to the global Muslim Brotherhood)

.         Ghaleb Ali Himmat (a leader of the German Muslim Brotherhood)
