The Replacements

19:63 Such is the Paradise which We shall give as inheritance to those of Our servants who are God-fearing.

In the last seven years, 14 per cent of all suicide bombings – one in seven – have been by children. Boko Haram has used more female suicide bombers than any other militant group.

The price of paradise: 82 facts you didn’t know about suicide bombers. The Irish Times (2019, April 18)

As more young people realize they are being duped, those who would rule us in the name of a violent and immoral deity will increasingly look to children to be their instruments of terror in Allah’s Cause.

From Remembering Uzza:

Bob: How do you get little boys to blow themselves up anyway?

Uzza: You play on every little boy’s fantasy of being all grown up. You tell them that, literally, in a puff of smoke, they can become a man if they are willing to help Allah get rid of the bad people.

With regard to their ages, they will all enter Paradise at the age of strength and youth, thirty-three years old. It was narrated from Mu’aadh ibn Jabal that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “The people of Paradise will enter Paradise hairless, beard-less with their eyes anointed with kohl, aged thirty or thirty-three years.”

al-Tirmidhi 2545

Archie: You have to wonder why there are no old geezers blowing themselves up with a promise of eternal youth and orgies galore.

Archie: They know better, and with every gullible guy blowing himself up, it leaves more young women and girls for them. They are no fools, just like the Prophet was no fool.

Bob: Young girls are also blowing themselves up. What’s in it for them?

Uzza: Not much. This is why the process of getting girls to do what young boys will do without much persuasion is slightly more complicated and brutal. Turning little girls into mass murderers is a challenge, but holy warriors have proven themselves up to the task with little girls increasingly outnumbering little boys as suicide bombers.

Gerry: How do they do it?

Uzza: The transformation usually begins with the rape of god-fearing girls by fighters in Allah's Cause. It is meant to make them feel a heart-breaking guilt for having brought dishonour on their family, a shame so intense that death seems preferable.

Gerry: But why do they not just kill themselves and not harm anyone else?

Archie: Or wait for their father to kill them?

Gerry: Archie, this is serious.

Archie: I am being serious.

Uzza: Rape makes a shamble of a young girl's fantasy of marrying her prince charming. What nice young man would have her as his beloved bride now that she is no longer a virgin? Only Allah, she is told, can now make her dream come true. Not in the here-and-now, but in the Hereafter, if she has the courage to kill herself and take as many of His enemies as possible with her. 

Parents who find it honourable to care for their daughters, who cherish them even after they have made a mistake or have been preyed upon by holy warriors, are their daughters’ best guarantee they will survive to make them proud and fulfilled.

Mothers, when indoctrinating their children into an ideology that embraces death, cannot do much about the violence and gratuitous sadism to which their children will be exposed as they prepare them for the Khatmi-Qur’an*. However, they can, in the process of reading with them the Koran from beginning to end, convince them that killing themselves, even when it results in the death of a big bunch of unbelievers, will cost them Paradise.

There is a verse in the Koran often repeated after a suicide bombing in the West, which may have more to do with not killing yourself fighting over worldly goods, that is used to convince non-Muslims that Allah is against suicide.

4:29 O believers, do not consume your wealth illegally, unless there be trading by mutual agreement among you; and do not kill yourselves. Allah is indeed merciful to you!

A mother might use this deceit to shield her boys from the influence of dissolute men who would deprive her of the joy of watching her babies grow up into men. As adults, they will be capable of deciding for themselves whether dying in a holy explosion is how they want to help those who would ruthlessly rule the world on Allah’s behalf.

* There is a very common ceremony practiced throughout most of the Muslim world called Khatmi-Qur’an. It is the ceremony to recognize and celebrate a child’s first full reading of the Koranic text in Arabic. Most children complete the first full reading of the Qur’an between the age of four and seven. It is the mother's responsibility to get her children to the Khatmi-Qur’an. Mosques around the world have the equivalent of Sunday school classes to assist the mother in getting her children "to master the proper pronunciation and to read the text clearly from the first verse to the last."
