He created a halo around himself that has nothing to do with Islamic Sharia
law. He did not know what the ABCs and priorities of Muslims and Islamic law
are. However, he still promotes himself as a scholar. He is Essam Tahir
al-Barqawi, nicknamed Abu Muhammad al-Maqdisi, a Jordanian of Palestinian
origin and is known as one of the ideologues of the Salafist Jihadist movement
and al-Qaeda terrorist organization.
► The Method of «Maqdisi»
Al-Maqdisi considers all those who disagree with him as enemies of Islamic
unity and approach.
Al-Maqdisi denounced a number of Islamic figures and groups, foremost of which
was the Palestinian Hamas movement, which is affiliated with the Muslim
Brotherhood. He responded to a question posed to him about the takfirism of Hamas
in one of the satellite channels, saying, “When we label the Hamas government
as infidel, it is not out of ignorance. However, it is a legitimate rule fixed
for each of those who ruled without relying on the rules of God.”
For several days, al-Maqdisi also launched a strong attack on Turkish President
Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, asserting that he was an infidel and stressed at the same
time that he was "not of Islam in anything," but "a flamboyant
secularist."
He did not only labeled as infidels similar movements and groups, which espouse
the ideas of his organization, such as al-Qaeda, but continued to describe as
disbelievers the rulers of Arab and Islamic countries, especially Saudi Arabia.
The cleric had a negative attitude from Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, his pupil and
fellow in prison. He criticized him in some directions for armed action,
specifically with regard to targeting Shiites by blowing up Husseiniat and
slaughtering.
► The Salafi Jerusalem Clash:
Abu Muhammad al-Maqdisi is a hateful person to the Arab countries, because of
his Palestinian origin. This Palestinian origin planted in him the perception
that the Arabs gave up on the Palestinian state, and unfortunately this concept
was disseminated by the Zionists.
Al-Tarfawi said in a statement to al-Reference that al-Maqdisi was a resident
of Kuwait and was suffering from the subject of nervousness and isolation at
the beginning of learning the Salafi approach. He added that al-Maqdisi was
dealing with the intelligence services and the evidence that he is free despite
labeling all Arab rulers as disbelievers and urging people to isolate and fight
them.
