Egyptian Psychiatrist Dr. Salah Haroun: The Druze Are Infidels

Following are excerpts from an address by Egyptian psychiatrist Dr. Salah Haroun, which aired on Al-Nas TV on February 17, 2009.

Dr. Salah Haroun: There is a very peculiar group of people – the Druze. Who are these people? They are infidels, who do not believe in the prophets or in Judgment Day. They have no such thing as Paradise or Hell. So what do they believe in? Listen to what they believe. This is going on today in several countries, including the Arab countries of Greater Syria. They do not believe in the prophets, in Judgment Day, in Paradise, or in Hell. They believe in reincarnation. What does this mean? When someone dies, his soul ascends to the heavens, or else it enters another body. That is their belief. As for a sinner, when he dies, his soul enters a dog or a pig. What is this?! This means that every dog got his soul from an evil person. This is a strange belief. I have never heard or read that such a thing existed even in pre-Islamic times.

There are 2 billion Christians. As we know, there are 1.2 billion Muslims. There are 900 million Hindus, who worship cows. Allah! They worship cows, as we've seen. Non-religious people – people who don't believe in any religion, and who say there is no such thing as God – number 850 million. By Allah, this is strange. When, in pre-Islamic times, someone was asked who he worshipped, he would say: "I worship seven gods – six on Earth, and one in Heaven." Imagine that. Today, there are 850 million people who have no religion. There are 360 million Buddhists, who worship Buddha. Allah! 360 million?! That's a huge figure. You know, when I say these things – it's driving me mad. What are these figures?

There are 228 million people who say they have a certain ideological belief, such as socialism, capitalism, and so on. That's it. If you ask them, they will say they have nothing to do with religion. There are 95 million people who belong to pagan religions, such as wicca and the like. I beg you to grab a pen and paper and to do the math.

There are 23 million Sikhs. It is a very large sect. As for Judaism – there are 19 million. This figure is in doubt – there may be only 15 million Jews. You see how many we are? A huge number. Someone told me something nice. He said: "If we were to spit on the Jews, they would drown." I said to him: "We cannot spit on anyone. Even our saliva has dried up.” 19 million people. As for the atheists – who are they? They say there is no god whatsoever. Go to any country... Take a sample of the developed countries, which have ruled the world with science...

There you go! Who is this? Surely you recognize him. Some people used to say that Obama is a prophet. This makes me sad. This is the prophet who has come to save the world?! Do you know what he is doing? Do you know what this cap is? Do you know where this picture was taken? In Palestine, where he went to receive the Jewish blessing. This won him votes in the elections.
