“I do not write in hypotheticals,” writes Aynaz Anni Cyrus.
“My standards are documentary and forensic: names, filings, public statements,
organizational ties, court records, financial flows, and observable outcomes.”
And it’s true. In her important new book, The Architecture of Jihad: Inside the Ideology, Law, and
Global Strategy Driving Islam’s Multi-Front Expansion, Cyrus
sets out in clear and precise terms, along with abundant documentation, the
many methods modern-day Islamic jihadis are using in order to attain their
goals of destroying the Judeo-Christian West and restoring the global
caliphate.
Aynaz Anni Cyrus knows the ways of Islamic jihadis from her
own bitter personal experience. Growing up in Iran, she escaped an attempt to
force her into marriage while she was still a child; as a teenager, she managed
to get out of the Islamic Republic altogether, although the vengeful and
bloodthirsty mullahs still have a bounty on her head. The Architecture of
Jihad, however, is not a record of her personal experiences, as worthwhile
and enlightening as such a book would be. Instead, it is a dispassionate,
concise and comprehensive explanation of the numerous ways jihadis are
advancing their cause in America today, while the political and media
establishment remains blissfully oblivious to the fact that any such initiative
is going on at all.
The Architecture of Jihad demonstrates not only that
it is going on, but that it has been for centuries. This book, which is unique
among literature about jihad in the West, is divided into two sections: The
Classical Jihads and The Modern Jihads. That is groundbreaking enough in
itself, as most of the explanations of jihad published in English focus on the
theology of jihad, its Qur’anic foundations, and how Muhammad, the prophet of
Islam, waged jihad. Others focus in whole or part on the millennium of struggle
between jihadis around the world and their victims.
Never before, however, has there been a book that identifies
all of the manifold ways in which Islam’s supremacist agenda has advanced
throughout history, and continues to do so today. Some of these ways are
familiar enough: most people in the West are by now familiar with the first of
Cyrus’ listing of Classical Jihads, Combat Jihad, although many, if not most,
Western non-Muslims would still insist that it represents a twisting and
hijacking of the religion of peace.
If you know anyone who still thinks that, give him a copy of
The Architecture of Jihad. No one could continue to think that Islam is
peaceful after reading Cyrus’ collection of many of the Qur’anic passages
regarding jihad, as well as passages from Muhammad’s life as recorded in
Islamic tradition, and sections of Islamic law, all clearly making violence
against non-Muslims a religious duty. She even includes a list of notable
recent jihad attacks, including 9/11, as if the Islamic imperative to violence
weren’t already clear enough.
But that’s just the beginning. Cyrus then goes on to
Financial Jihad, which largely involves Muslims paying, directly and
indirectly, for the Combat Jihad. Cyrus details the Islamic justifications for
this and many ways in which it is done under the noses of ignorant and
complacent Western authorities.
Oh, and speaking of ignorant and complacent Western
authorities, there then follows Migration Jihad. “Islamic scripture places
profound weight on migration,” writes Cyrus, and then she details how this is
so, and makes it abundantly clear how foolish and short-sighted Western
leftists are to encourage the mass migration of Muslims into the West, thinking
that by doing so, they will secure their electoral base. “Migration Jihad
works,” Cyrus works, “because it rearranges the map before anyone notices.” Indeed.
Europeans and Americans are beginning to notice, but the map has already been
so thoroughly rearranged that the problem will be extremely difficult to deal
with adequately.
The Architecture of Jihad continues on through
Deception Jihad, Political Jihad, Missionary Jihad, and — among the Modern
Jihads — Civilization Jihad, Propaganda Jihad, Lawfare Jihad, Betrayal Jihad.
Most of these have never before been discussed within the context of the larger
jihad against the West, or have had their Islamic foundations and
justifications so comprehensively exposed.
That’s what makes The Architecture of Jihad a
standout among books about jihad, and a new addition to the short lists of
essential books on the topic. Aynaz Anni Cyrus is to be commended for providing
the world with such a clear, easy-to-follow, and all-encompassing summary of
the various jihads being waged against us today. Now, if only our elected
officials, military brass, intelligence and law enforcement authorities would
read this book, and take careful heed of its lessons.
