Oyo abduction: Muslims reject terrorists' demand for Sharia law

punchng.com · June 6, 2026

CSPII Commentary: While it's commendable that the Oyo Muslim community rejects the terrorists' demand for Sharia law, they are not saying the truth about Sharia law. Islam DOES NOT "forbid kidnapping, terrorism and the extortion of innocent citizens". Sharia DOES NOT "promote justice, peace and the sanctity of human life". The Koranic verse they reference (5:32) is among the most commonly cited by those who seek to misrepresent the Koran's teachings. It is typically quoted out of context, despite the fact that, within the Koran itself, it applies specifically to Jews and is not framed as a general directive governing Muslim relations with non-Muslims.

It is very likely that they are afraid to criticize Islam, and thus, claim the terrorists actions are "not legitimate Islam". As long as they live with threat of life for criticizing Islam, we will not know. This is just another piece of evidence how Muslims are the first victims of Islam.

New York Post · June 3, 2026

Much has been written about the “Islamization” of Europe and the UK. Is it now California’s turn? Two major books — "Londonistan“ by Melanie Phillips, and "Submission,“ a novel from France’s Michel Houellebecq — have pictured an old continent that is increasingly at the mercy of often violent Islamists. Although the Muslim population in Europe...
