Cat Stevens / Yusuf Islam - The Little Ones

[armin458]

ty yusuf, i'm lil' one from sarajevo, from that period of war. We are still Little Ones, come and visit us, sing a couple songs for us.

[MyGramofon]

Thank you Yusuf, you made cry child from Bosnia with this song.

[persiantaha]

You are "Great". Thank you man!

[laurasIs2c]

May we remember the innocent of our adult hearts and be the hero that we all need.

[redshirtish]

This is the same Yusuf Islam who threatened Rushdie and his book, Yusuf Islam on TV moderator asked him if, in my role as a commissioning editor Channel 4 UK, I would contemplate turning The Satanic Verses into a film. I said that I would judge the cinematic merits of the script, and that no other consideration would rule it out. Kalim Siddiqui and Yusuf Islam snarled, warning that the sentence of death on Rushdie would extend to all those who forwarded his book in any way. Farrukh Dhondy

2/3

[9:14] Fight them, and Allah will punish them by your hands...

.

[3:151] Soon shall we cast terror into the hearts of the unbelievers, for that they joined partners with Allah, for for which He had sent no authority: their abode will be the fire: and evil is the home of the wrong-doers!

.

[9:29] Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, ... until they pay the Jizya with willing submission...

[Oktoberfesting]

1/3

Jihad passages in the Qu'ran.

[2:244] Then fight in the cause of Allah, and know that Allah Hears and knows all things.

[4:74] Let those fight in the cause of Allah who sell the life of this world for the hereafter. To him who fighteth in the cause of Allah, whether he is slain or gets victory soon shall we give him a reward of great (value)

[2:216] Fighting is prescribed upon you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is bad for you...

[SuperMiguelin]

simply the best.a genial and peaceful man.He 's a gift to our world.

[mysweeteventhorizon]

The little ones?

This is a man, cat stevens, who told the world he would kill anyone he was ordered to my an imam (BBC interview)

As for those sickening ode to hypocrisy it ignores the muslim mothers who elevate their social status by giving birth to as many children as they can and then wrapping them in explosives and setting them alight in marketplaces. Or the muslim men and fathers who crawl into bed with the "little ones" and brutally rape them as role modeled by muhammad and Aisha.

Sick.

[mysweeteventhorizon]

This is Cat Stevens. He is no "man of peace"

He can be quoted in a BBC interview as saying he would kill anyone if ordered to by an imam.

He sings nauseating songs about peace yet ignores the muslims who wrap their children in explosives and set them alight in market places. muslim men who, following the example of muhammad, crawl into bed with 5 and 6 year old children and brutally rape them. muslims who stone and enslave women, muslim men who butcher their daughters genitals.

this is islam.

[mysweeteventhorizon]

@mysweeteventhorizon , islam is no "religion of peace" and muslims are no "peaceful people".

islam is a sickness, a cancer that brings darkness.

Its followers, muslims, ignore at their convenience the trail of death and pages of history soaked with blood at the hands of "muslim peace lovers". isalm is an ideology of sexual depravity and deviance, of rape and pedophilia, of murder, terrorism, of violence, of destruction and blind hate.

islam and muslims have no place in a civilized world.

[riverasher]

@mysweeteventhorizon

Blind hate? read over your comment and then tell my who is blindly hating someone.

I am not a Muslim, and I don't agree with many of the teachings of islam ( women being subservient, and having to cover themselves, their stance against GLBTQ rights etc.), but islam is not the only religion, by far, that practices these things.

[verena2010do]

I wouldn't want to be judged on something I said in 1989. Actually I said a lot of stupid things that long ago. If there is someone perfect here, he can judge, but somehow I doubt there is anyone perfect here.

[humayaayapautam]

Beautiful song, Thanks Yusuf, Cat, the artist, the writer, the performer.

Thanks sayembarahidup

[RealityCheckHero]

Yusuf Islam said: "Salman Rushdie must be killed. The Q'uran makes it clear - if someone defames the prophet, then he must die."

(Source: Philadelphia Inquirer, February 24, 1989, p.5A)

Yusuf Islam is a two-faced pig who writes songs about children one day, and calls for murder the next.

[ahmad941985]

@RealityCheckHero go spread your shit somewhere else

[cmvanaria]

What a truly gifted man he is. Thank you Steven Georgieou, Cat Stevens, Yusuf Islam

[PeaceTrainFan]

A beautiful song, written with emotion. He is just such a powerful song writer, and a gentle soul. Yusuf, thank you for all your beautiful lyrics...they are like poetry to the ears. A fine performance, thank you so much for posting this! Take care, PEACE.

Yusuf/ Cat Stevens # 1 Best Living Artist (rolling stone magazine)

[GIVEMEGRITS]

He is such a great musician, it's too bad he joined the terrorists (Islam) and is following a pedophile false prophet.

[11101ahmed]

what yusef islam did is what smart peole do when they read the quran and read the biography of prophet mohamed (STOP BEING BRAINWASHED BY MASS MEDIA AND JUDGE THE QURAN NOT THE PEOPLE WHO ARE ONLY MUSLIMS BY NAME)

[jonniesuarez]

@GIVEMEGRITS: WOW...

[fallingpearl]

Yusuf aka cat

god bless him for

always being so true to

him self. I think he is soooo

sexy!!!!

[SuperMiguelin]

What deep song.Tears in my eyes.This man is an angel.

[Finn247]

a true word ;-)

[mhspic]

It seems it is not necessary to qualify his roots, the color of his hair, the brand of his guitar or the depth of his beliefs. Can't we just enjoy the genius of this incredible man?

[mschultz59]

It doesn't matter what his roots are his message and music speak for themselves. I think he's one of the rare artists that come along. I'm really sorry for the years that he didn't produce new music.

[fallingpearl]

@mhsphic

well said!

[qualqui]

Yusuf Islam is AWESOME, but......i always thought he was american, from his accent, he's british?!

[alsuwidijah]

He has a greek cypriotic father and a swedish mother but was born and raised in the UK.

[tsky246]

i dedicate this song to the babies and children of palastine that have died over these past few weeks in this war on gaza .. GOD BLESS U INNOCENTS OF PALASTINE ... incha allah this will all stop soon rest in peace angels xx

[irenegrondahl]

Inshallah the Gaza strip will recover from the horrendous atrocities committed by Israel. Why does the world community accept Israel's terrorism?

[JJJadm]

yes israel is the real terrorist state

[alsuwidijah]

Inshalla the international community will put more and more pressure on Israel, the latest news about a further expansion of Ma'ale Adumiim near al-Quds will be devastating for a future Palestinian state and MUST be stopped by all means!

[roman5432]

[shoedoctor99]

God Bless the Little Ones, Indeed.

God Bless you, Yusuf.
