Part 2 – Anti-India Propaganda in Guise of Protecting Prophet’s Honour

Dilshad Noor March 11, 2023 7 min read

One of the most abominable things for followers to Islam is hurling insult at Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW). In Muslim-dominated countries, this is called blasphemy and has been punishable, ranging from life term to death sentence.

Any dishonourable remark made against Prophet Muhammad influences 1.8 billion Muslims of the world. Muslims make up of around one fourth of the world population. It means every fourth person of the world will register his or her protest at insult to their beloved Prophet.

No other issue warrants such a vehement public reaction as the case of blasphemy. In fact this issue has the potential of moulding the direction of geo politics, and it does it very often.

Recently, the DFRAC has unearthed an international working to defame India in the name of protecting the dignity of Prophet (International campaign against India in the guise of Prophet Muhammad). It was an expose on الھیئة العالمیة لنصرة نبي الإسلام or International Organisation to Support the Prophet of Islam. This organisation is running an international campaign named ‘Support Prophet Muhammad’ especially targeting western countries. In recent years, members of this outfit have also fired salvos at India and its right wing government.

We have discussed in our earlier report that how India was made a target of malicious propaganda after then BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma made obnoxious remark on Prophet during a live TV show. A campaign was also run in Arab and Gulf countries that Indian products must be boycotted and Indian envoys be expelled.

In the second part of this detailed report, we are investigating the cyber activities of three key figures of the anti-India international campaign. They have been damaging the image of India in guise of protecting the honour of Prophet. All three of them belong to hardline Muslim Brotherhood group. Muslim Brotherhood aims to establish a global caliphate. It was founded by a school teacher named Hasan Al-Banna in 1928 in Egypt.

Brotherhood has umpteen number of branches scattered around the world. These branches operate under various pseudo identities, and even don’t shy away from adopting violent measures to meet their goals. Brotherhood is also known as the ideological force behind the birth of terrorist organisations like Al Qaeda and ISIS. Many countries like Bahrain, Egypt, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Syria and the United Arab Emirates have banned the Muslim Brotherhood labelling it as a terrorist organisation.

1। Dr Ali al-Qaradaghi

Dr Ali al-Qaradaghi is the secretary-general of the Qatar-based International Union of Muslim Scholars (IUMS), an organisation previously led by Yusuf al-Qaradawi and linked to the Muslim Brotherhood.

al-Qaradaghi is the main pillar of anti-India campaign in the shadow of protecting honour of Prophet. He is not only aggravating hatred against India, he is painting Hindus in dark hues.

  • We through our official statement condemn Hindu brutality. We know that blood calls for blood revenge. Extremism leads to violence. The blood of Muslims is not cheap. We still support official actions (against accused), any action that will prevent extremism against Muslims. There were protests all over North India against killing of Muslims in Rajasthan in the name of cow smuggling.
  • Is there any further extremism possible after this? What do office-bearers of the Indian Extremist Party (BJP) want from Muslims? Islamic school of learning is being demolished in India. We are very distressed by the Hindu extremism, and there seems no end to it, however the world may try for peace. O wise people of India, rise against extremism. O Muslim governments, I pray that you develop some sensitivity!
  • Yes, gentlemen, this is a murderous religious ideology called Hindutva, supported by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, backed by militias that kill and repress Muslims. However, the party (BJP) and its leader are not being held accountable for their crimes. Today we are seeing the lies of the big slogans cooked up for Muslims. There is pause to injustice and blood sport.
  • This unstoppable Hindu propaganda is on the rise. We demand that Islamic countries take a stand that respects their people’s religion, and we call for legal punishment for the ruling party (BJP), as well as for Muslim governments to offer economic boycotts (of Indian products) and ask for official apologies rendered to Muslims.

2। Dr Sheikh Mohamed Al-Sagheer

Egyptian politician and scholar Dr Muhammad Al-Sagheer served as an advisor to the Egyptian Minister of Religious Endowments and an MP under former President Mohammed Morsi’s Muslim Brotherhood government. He has allegedly been associated with violent elements. He had openly supported Al Qaeda terrorist Abdul Rehman. Rehman was accused of assisting the 1993 World Trade Centre bombing that had killed 6 people and injured 1,042. In his Facebook post, Sagheer had called Rehman a mujahid (holy warrior). He had lamented his death as a loss of an important Islamic scholar.

Al-Sagheer is a major component of anti-India campaign. His campaign targets not only India, but even Hindus. He is also against India’s relations with Muslim countries.

  • We should continue to #boycott #French_products853 because #France is hostile to Islam and harasses Muslims, and #Macron is proud of it and sees it from the success of his plan, as well as #India attacking Muslims And continues to misbehave daily, and #Modi adopts the policy of racial discrimination with them. #expel_hindu_employees.
  • India’s crimes against Muslims continue, India kills Muslims according to a systematic plan based on displacement, and commits the worst crime in Kashmir! Leaders of #Kashmir_Tabad and the Islamic world are sleepy and sleepy, and people have no choice but to #boycott_Indian_products.
  • How do you see Modi’s reception with excessive hospitality at this time, when he insults the Prophet, and his party’s and government’s continuous violations against Muslims continue? #مودي_عند_حمودي
  • #Government of India pursues the case of insulting the Prophet and went beyond the stage of refusing to apologise and issued statements of censure, considering them unwarranted, so can the countries that initiated the censure will accept this arrogance, and will the next step be to expel the #Indian_Ambassador and take more preventive measures for India?

Dr Al-Sagheer had also launched a drive against France, apart from calling out India. He ran several hashtags on Twitter against India and France. Among these hashtags, some asked for boycott of French products and some called for expulsion of Indian ambassadors from Muslim countries. The graph below will illustrate this:

In his anti-India propaganda, Dr Al-Sagheer tweeted maximum on #Expulsion_of_Hindu_Labour. On this hashtag, he tweeted and retweeted for at least 190 times.

Overall, Dr Al-Sagheer’s tweets on France and India are 12.3% and 7.14% respectively. In these tweets, even thoughts of Muslim Brotherhood’s chief ideologue Shaykh Yusuf Al-Qaradawi had been discussed. A separate hashtag was created on him.

3। Muhammad Al-Hasan bin Al-Diddu Al-Shanqiti

The Islamic movement in Mauritania has a stamp of Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt. The Brotherhood ideology is starkly evident in political and religious circles of Mauritania. Muhammad Al-Hasan bin Al-Diddu Al-Shanqiti is a leading scholar of Mauritania. He is affiliated to Muslim Brotherhood and many of his speeches have been uploaded on the group’s website.

He is also the secretary general of the International Union of Muslim Scholars (IUMS). He is very active in anti-India hatred drive on Twitter. He has appealed Muslims in Mauritania and all over the world to boycott India.

He had demanded the expulsion of Hindus from the Gulf countries. In fact, he once made an objectionable comment on Hinduism.

  • Calling for boycott of India and its ruling party
  • Express your anger over insult to your Prophet and stand by your Muslim brothers in adversity
  • It is the duty of Muslims to boycott politically and economically those who insult Islam and its great Prophet. There is no good in a diplomatic relationship that does not preserve the dignity of the country.
  • The regime and the people compete to maintain their position among the nations, and they sacrifice things that are precious and valuable for their honour. And what honour is there for the Muslims after insulting their Messenger and their ideal, The nation should review its priorities and boycott its enemy.

The graph below shows the timeline of Sheikh Dadow’s tweets since the account was created in March 2012. In the beginning several tweets have been done from this account. The highest number of tweets was made on May 30, 2017, with about 50 tweets in a day. Afterwards the timeline became fairly stable.

Apart from this, Sheikh Dado has tweeted the maximum 21.7% in the year 2018, followed by the maximum tweets in the year 2020 and 2019. The graph of his tweet can be seen below.

Conclusion:

The honour of Prophet Muhammad has always an emotional subject for Muslims throughout the globe. But, the Muslim Brotherhood is steering its own agenda in the garb of protecting Prophet’s honour. One of the targets of the Brotherhood is India. Besides India, it is also running a slander campaign against Hindus working in the Gulf. The hardline group is running its propaganda through its top clerical leadership.
