The practice of praying in the streets and on the roadsides in Europe now, in particular, has no relation to the origin of religion in the Arabian Peninsula, its texts, and religious practices, At that time, there were no streets, cars, airports, or trains in the Arabian Peninsula, nor even demonstrations, In that time, there was the sword and settling disputes with the sword, Even if religion allowed prayers on the roadsides, or forbade them, the position of countries towards this degenerate matter, which is not consistent with any civilized law in this era, is no different, Rather, it is strongly consistent with barbarism, because it is an attack on public affairs and a clear violation of all positive human laws, It is strange why prayers are not held in the streets of Middle Eastern countries, despite the existence of streets and religious believers in Mecca, Damascus, Cairo, and others.
The phenomenon is new and strange, whether individual or collective, and its practice in the way it was done was nothing but an unwarranted provocation, It is a new innovation of a form of hypocrisy and pretense and a display of extremist tendencies, It is a hybrid bid against worship in temples, and an attempt to inform the people of the countries to which these people have resorted that these worshippers have succeeded in taking over the streets and turning them into mosques or places of worship, even if some consider the practice of religious rituals on the side of the road to be one of the signs of piety and faith, this faith in the way these people practiced it is reprehensible and forbidden in all societies of the world!
It makes no difference whether some consider these practices a conspiracy against religion or a conspiracy by religion. Regardless of all that, it is an ugly practice, no less vicious than murder or suicide. It is a folklore of suicide and harm to others and to oneself as well, and a disgrace to the religion concerned. Blocking the road is one of the practices of highway robbers.
Imagine worshippers praying five times a day on the roadsides, blocking them, as we have seen in hundreds of photos and videos of these pious individuals, What would happen to transportation and traffic flow? More importantly, imagine the thoughts of that worshipper as he prays in front of a bus, potentially risking death by being run over, What does this worshipper feel in his heart towards others? Does he feel love or hate? Forgiveness or revenge? Respect for others or vengeance? Why would this worshipper seek revenge against Leipzig, Berlin, Paris, or any other city in this way? Did his prayer earn God’s favor and blessing? What about the reaction of others to the prayers of these highway robbers? Is deporting these highway robbers to their countries of origin an injustice to them, or a duty towards the people of the countries that have hosted them?
What did the believers gain from the practices of the street thugs, that is, outside the place designated for prayer, i.e., the houses of worship? They gained nothing at all! Rather, those vulgar displays prompted the governments of those countries to ban street prayers under penalty of law, and among the most important of these penalties is deportation to the countries from which the worshippers came, such as Algeria, Syria and others. And what does it mean to gradually deport more than a million Syrians to Syria, after 90% of Syrian men and women have slipped below the extreme poverty line and hunger has become a widespread epidemic? Where will these returnees live? Who will build them houses and providwork for food, eate and medicine and opportunities to work
So it can be said that those who thought they could gain the pleasure of their Lord through the practices of highway robbers did not benefit from that pleasure, but rather their living conditions will worsen after they are returned to their countries. We did not see that God built a house for anyone, nor did we see God drop baskets of food, medicine, or even water on the heads of these people, So the prayers of highway robbers led to harming the worshippers in addition to harming the religion, which they think they are defending. Those practices, rejected by almost all countries of the world, led to the disgrace of this religion and its men.
I am not surprised or more ridiculous than folkloric practices of the kind of prayer of highwaymen, who suffer from moral poverty, moral decline, and severe human backwardness, from sexual harassment, the spread of corruption, poverty, hunger, ignorance, and darkness without electricity or potable water, then extreme poverty, garbage filling the streets, and insane practices that have destroyed or will destroy the positivity and determination of those who wanted to help them by providing them with shelter, food, medicine, and even dignity, freedom, and equality with others. It seems that all of that does not concern them, as what concerns them in the first place was praying to the Prophet, who did not pray for them and took a fifth of their stolen war spoils, and thus became a millionaire, according to the confession of Sheikh Wagdi Ghoneim, while these people remained crushed by economic, political, educational, social, organizational, and moral crises.
Some consider his presence as a refugee and a parasite on the tables of others as a conqueror of the lands of the infidels and an expansion of the House of Islam or the House of War and Faith. Some of them were not satisfied with hybridizing asylum into conquest, but rather planned conquest according to the old model, not with the mask of asylum but with direct invasion. Thus, Sheikh Al-Huwayni decided years ago to carry out two invasions annually in Europe for the material and human spoils of war, that is, to hunt down the fair-skinned blonde girls, and he laid out plans to sell them in the twentieth century. All of that did not push the morally dead peoples to put an end to the madness that struck the minds of their “scholars” such as Al-Huwayni, Al-Sha’rawi, Abdullah Rushdi, Haitham Talaat and many others.
All of the above is called “backwardness,” and to this day, after 1440 years, religious Bedouinism has been unable to answer the following question: Was proximity to religion the cause of backwardness, or was distance from religion the cause? In other words, is backwardness intellectual and cultural, or is it religious backwardness? This will be explored further in an attempt to answer this question.
