MTP'S Words: "Truly Despicable"

So says an administrator at USC (via this at Jihad Watch):

...[A] university administrator has gone on record calling words of the prophet of Islam "despicable." This is an astounding departure from the political correctness that shackles our universities today, and opens the door for more pressure to be placed on Muslim groups in the United States to renounce, in deed as well as in word, the doctrines of jihad violence and Islamic supremacism.

The third IslamoFascism Awareness Week, "Stop the Jihad on Campus," is coming up October 13-17. As a result, or not, the Muslim Students Association of USC agreed to the removal of the following passages from the university's Hadith collection from the school's web site:

Book 041, Number 6981:

Ibn 'Umar reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: You will fight against the Jews and you will kill them until even a stone would say: Come here, Muslim, there is a Jew (hiding himself behind me) ; kill him.

Book 041, Number 6982:

Ubaidullah has reported this hadith with this chain of transmitters (and the Words are):" There is a Jew behind me."

Book 041, Number 6983:

Abdullah b. 'Umar reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: You and the Jews would fight against one another until a stone would say: Muslim, here is a Jew behind me; come and kill him.

Book 041, Number 6984:

Abdullah b. 'Umar reported that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: The Jews will fight against you and you will gain victory over them until the stone would say: Muslim, here is a Jew behind me; kill him.

Book 041, Number 6985:

Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews.

Of course, as Robert Spencer points out, those words are available elsewhere. Nevertheless, the removal of the passages is a small victory for the counter-jihad movement:

The texts exist all over the place. You can find them online here and elsewhere. A taqiyya artist would have to have a deeply naive and stupid audience (of course, there are plenty of such audiences for taqiyya artists) to convince them that because these ahadith do not appear on one site, that Muslims reject them or that they do not exist.

The point here is that for the first time that I know of, a university administrator has gone on record calling words of the prophet of Islam "despicable." This is an astounding departure from the political correctness that shackles our universities today, and opens the door for more pressure to be placed on Muslim groups in the United States to renounce, in deed as well as in word, the doctrines of jihad violence and Islamic supremacism.

Of course, some Moslem groups are upset. From this at Muslims Against Sharia, citing this article in the Daily Trojan, the student newspaper of USC:

Members of the Muslim Student Union, which is the dominant Muslim student organization on campus but which is not associated with the MSA, declined to be interviewed... [and called] Nikias' actions "unprecedented and unconscionable" and said they amounted to unwarranted censorship....

"We are outraged at the censorship of a complete religious and classic text without consulting us or any religious authority first," the group said in the statement. "The 'compendium' is now incomplete....

Pot calls kettle black! Moslems complaining about censorship!
