Boko Haram and ISIS have the same “prophet-inspired” goal of forcing everyone to worship “Allah” while killing and being killed in the process. Is this Boko Haram’s way of pledging allegiance to Caliph al-Baghdadi? …
Qur’an Sura 9:111a, “[Allah] hath purchased of the believers [Muslims] their persons and their goods; for theirs (in return) is the garden (of Paradise): they fight in His cause, and slay and are slain …”
Hadith, Bukhari 52:54, “[Mohammed said] I would love to be martyred in Allah’s Cause and then get resurrected and then get martyred, and then get resurrected again and then get martyred and then get resurrected again and then get martyred.”
By Naharnet Newsdesk – “The head of Nigeria’s Boko Haram Islamists has voiced support for the extremist Sunni Islamic State (IS) militants who have taken over large swathes of territory in Iraq and Syria, in a video obtained by Agence France Presse Sunday.
In the 16-minute video, given to AFP through similar channels as past messages, Boko Haram chief Abubakar Shekau also claims responsibility for a June 25 bombing in the capital Abuja and an attack hours later in Lagos which the authorities tried to cover up
He also mocks the social media campaign Bring Back Our Girls which emerged to call attention to the plight of the more than 200 schoolgirls kidnapped on April 14 by the Islamists from the remote northeastern town of Chibok.
‘We were the ones who detonated the bomb in filthy Abuja,’ Shekau said, referring to the attack a popular shopping center that killed at least 22 people.
Later that day, a huge blast rocked the Apapa port district of Lagos, which the authorities blamed on cooking gas explosion, with no casualties.
An AFP investigation has revealed the blast was a deliberate attack involving high explosives.
‘A bomb went off in Lagos. I ordered (the bomber) who went and detonated it,’ Shekau says in the video, which shows him flanked by at least ten gunmen in front of two armored personnel carriers and two pickup trucks.
‘You said it was a fire incident,’ he added. ‘Well, if you hide it from people you can’t hide it from Allah.’
Near the beginning of the video he calls several of the world’s most prominent Islamist extremists his ‘brethren.’
‘May Allah protect you’ he said, listing IS chief, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, al-Qaida head Ayman al-Zawahiri, Taliban leader Mullah Omar and several others.” Source – Naharnet Newsdesk.
