Jordanian doctor Humam al-Balawi) Released on: February 28, 2010 [This document is the transcript of a video released by Al-Qaida's As-Sahab Media Foundation and obtained by NEFA investigators on behalf of the NEFA TerrorWatch subscription service. This transcript is provided for educational and informational purposes only.] [As-Sahab] “The New Crusades have entered their second decade, with the battle between truth and falsehood continuing to rage as strong as ever; this battle which has exposed the ugly face of the people of falsehood represented by the infidel West and its apostate agents in our Islamic region. This pact is led by the empire of evil and criminality, America, whose criminality has manifested itself in the most gruesome of forms in what has been committed against our Islamic peoples in Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine and the rest of the Muslim world; forms of lowliness, bestiality and savagery some examples of which have reached us, but what is hidden is even worse.” “In the final year of the first decade of this war, Bush Jr. slid into history’s trash heap in humiliation and failure, and turned over the banner of criminality to his successor, Obama, whose first achievement was pulling the wool over the eyes of some of our Ummah’s simpletons, who showered him with applause following his high-sounding but totally substanceless speech in Cairo.

  • ʾal-Ḥūr and ʾal-Ḥūriyyāt
    ʾal-Ḥūr and ʾal-Ḥūriyyāt In An Arabic-English Lexicon, Lane gives the definition of ‘hur’ or ‘hurun’, which is the plural form of haura, and can be both masculine as well as feminine. ‘Hawar’ means, “the intense whiteness of the white of the eye and intense blackness of the black of the eye, with intense whiteness or fairness of the rest of the person”. ‘Ahwariyyun’ means “a man, white or fair of the towns or villages”. The word ‘hawariyyun’ means, “those who whiten clothes etc. by washing and beating them”. Or, “one who is freed and cleared from every vice, fault or defect”, or, “a thing that is pure and unsullied”. According to Maulana Umar Ahmed Usmani, it is a misconception that hurun means the females of paradise who will be reserved for good men. He says that ‘hur’ or ‘hurun’ is the plural of both ‘ahwaro’, which is the masculine form as well as ‘haurao’, which is feminine. It means both pure males and pure females. He says that basically the word ‘hurun’ means white. http://www.dawn.com/news/635343/are-all-houris-female ‘Alhawarriyat’ means the women of the towns and cities who are comparatively fairer. The word ‘al-hawariyyun’ has also been used in the Quran to refer to the disciples of Jesus, who used to wash clothes white. By whiteness here is also meant the purity of their personalities or souls. http://defenceforumindia.com/forum/religion-culture/22487- all- houris-female.html Qur'anic description: The houri have variously been described as being "restraining their glances (chaste)",[7][8] "modest gaze", [4] "wide and beautiful/lovely eyes",[3][7][9][10] "like pearls", [11] "spouse", [12] "companions of equal age",[2][13] "splendid" [1] and much more besides.
