Syrian Child Preacher Curses Obama, Vows: We Will Conquer the Arabian Peninsula, Kill Its Leaders

This video-clip, posted on the Internet on October 28, features a boy called Abu Ja'far ("The Father of Ja'far") and is titled "The Jihad." In the "street sermon," which attracted a small gathering of children and adults and was guarded by an armed militant, the boy curses Obama, calls for Jihad, and vows to conquer the Arabian Peninsula and kill its rulers. The original video was over 15 minutes long. Another address by Abu Ja'far, also posted on the Internet, was titled "Modesty." According to the Facebook page of the Center for Preachers of Jihad, which posted the addresses, they were delivered in Sarmada, near Idlib. The Center for Preachers of Jihad was founded by Saudi preacher Abdallah Al-Muhaisini, one of the veteran foreign fighters in Syria, who announced in September that he was opening a military training camp for boys aged 14 and over.


Following are excerpts from the October 28 speech:


"Abu Ja'afar": Peace be upon you and Allah's mercy and blessings.

There is something that has been the reason for the glory of Islam. It is the reason that we, living today, in Syria, are Muslims. It has been the reason for the spreading of Islam and its glory. It has been the reason for the humiliation of the infidels.


[…]


This is Jihad for the sake of Allah. No nation that abandoned Jihad was spared humiliation. The Muslims waged wars, spreading Islam to the East and West. Jihad was the reason that they humiliated the infidels, collected the jizya poll tax from them, and captured their women, in order to maintain the glory of Islam.


Jihad for the sake of Allah! Jihad! Jihad, my dear brothers. Our Prophet Muhammad was a muhahid. Jihad! Jihad! Jihad is incumbent upon you. Today, the nations are summoning one another to attack us just like people invite one another to share food.


[…]


How should we respond to the infidels? We only have one way to make [the land under] their feet tremble: It is Jihad! It is Jihad! Jihad will strike fear in their hearts, bringing death and dispersal upon them. Today, the infidels want the Muslims to avoid waging Jihad. They want to blacken the reputation of Islam. Al-Hebrewiya/Arabiya TV and Al-Jazeera TV refer to us as "extremists." When a mujahid is martyred, they say that he was "killed," not "martyred." They proclaim that Jihad is an ugly thing.


Let me say to them: I swear by Allah that we will crush your thrones. We shall trample on your heads with our feet.


[…]


Dear brother, don't you want to go straight to Paradise and be spared any torment? Jihad is incumbent upon you. It is incumbent upon you, dear brother. Jihad is the reason for the glory of the Muslims.


[…]


My dear mujahid brother, do not think that this refers only to Bashar, and that if the sinful Bashar Al-Assad falls, Jihad will come to an end. By Allah, Jihad will continue until Jesus son of Mary comes on Judgment Day.


[…]


I would like to convey a message to you, Obama, may Allah curse you. May Allah make your face even uglier than it already is. May Allah make you stink. By Allah, we will trample on your head with our feet, you infidel, you tyrant.


As for you, King "Ibn Al-Salul" [Aal Saud] of the Arabian Peninsula, you chief tyrant, by Allah, we will make an example of you for all the hypocrites. You deceived the people, claiming to be the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, but in fact, you are the chief infidel tyrant. You hypocrite! I swear by Allah that we shall take the Arabian Peninsula, and kill the infidel rulers.


[…]


Do not think that this international coalition will do away with us Muslims. We will continue to be killed, but we will raise a new generations who will fight and be killed as well, until we trample on your head with our feet, you infidel tyrant.


Oh Allah, support Islam and the Muslims.

Crowd: Amen.

"Abu Ja'afar": My people, I'd like you to promise me that you will set out on Jihad for the sake of Allah. Our nation relies upon you, oh young men of Islam. I'd like you to promise me that you will persevere in your Jihad until you are killed, because the nation needs you, people. My brothers, our nation needs you. You must set out. Wake up from your slumber. Wake up. The West is turning you into a laughingstock. Wake up from your slumber. Say: "Allah Akbar."


Crowd: Allah Akbar!


"Abu Ja'afar": Say: "Allah Akbar!"


Crowd: Allah Akbar!


"Abu Ja'afar": Say: "Allah Akbar!"


Crowd: Allah Akbar!


"Abu Ja'afar": Say: "Allah Akbar!"


Crowd: Allah Akbar!


Allah Akbar!


"Abu Ja'afar": May Allah reward you.
