The most horrifying story of Christian persecution is happening in our time, and yet it has mostly fallen on deaf ears…
Imagine yourself in a filthy and dismal room, with sadistically smiling Muslims looking at you, thinking of the evils they are about to inflict upon you. You are not alone, next to you is your wife. They beat you heavily, to the point where you can barely stand, and then they threaten you with the unthinkable: they say that they are going to seize your wife, strip her completely naked and walk her down the road in plain sight, just to humiliate her.
After you have been severely beaten and humiliated, you and your demoralized wife are taken to a court where a mob of Muslim gangs scream verses from the Koran justifying your death. Your lawyer is terrified, the judge does not want to even entertain your case for fear of the mob. Week after week you live without hope, not knowing what your fate will be. Your children are alone, without father nor mother, and not realizing if their parents will live or die. And in the end, when you and your wife stand in the court, surrounded by wolves and no sympathizers, the judge declares your sentence: you will both be put to death by hanging.
This is what is happening in the case of Shafqat and Shagufta. This is the highest profile case of persecution in Pakistan, and Rescue Christians is the only organization that has taken it up.
This story will make a break the case for Pakistani Christians since in the case of Shafqat and his wife, the courts are persisting to carry out the death penalty in order to thwart the ability of the West to rescue Christians in Pakistan, and is why we are appealing to all to send this to your friends urging them with these words: “This is a time for Prayer or Action!”
The Muslim police officers who sadistically tormented them threatened the husband that if he did not admit to the charges, that they will strip his wife completely naked on the road.
Their son had this to say about the event:
They forced my father to admit the accusation but my father denied. They tortured my father and said that if he will not admit then they will beat his wife and will take her on the road naked. So my father admitted.
After enduring such torture and psychological violence, they were both sentenced to death. Pharaoh’s heart is hardened to uproot the name of Christianity, and to wipe out the Christians from the earth. This is the ultimate battle for survival: either this couple lives, or they die.
This couple was slandered, tortured, humiliated to the most horrific degree, and yet they still did not give up the cause of Christ, nor did they accept to convert to Islam, even though the court passed the death sentence on both the man and his wife.
Watch this most heart breaking video of their children and Shafqat’s father weeping and begging for help from anyone willing to take up their cause:
Whether they live or die depends on what we do, at this very moment. If we help, we can free them, but if we do nothing, their blood is upon us. We must strive to liberate them from this Islamic despotism. Please make a donation for the freedom of Shafqat and Shagufta.
When we see this horrifically persecuted family; the weeping of the grandfather, the wailings of the children, the lamentations of the family, the torment and anguish of the husband and wife, we de not see just the mere suffering of human beings, no, we see Christ. When we view this most sad footage, we are witnessing the image of Christ before our eyes.
It is Christ Who is imprisoned; Christ Who is beaten and scourged; Christ Who is threatened and mocked; Christ Who is scoffed; Christ Who is naked. The world has abandoned these banished children of Eve, and at the same time, it is Christ Who is forsaken; Christ Who is ignored with the cruel indifference of men.
And under the quiet and cloudless skies of the East, which hovers over a roaring and raging throng of Adam’s sons, glorious and valiant saints accustomed to the cruelties of savages conquer the bastions of evil with the spilling of their sacred blood. As the sublime Psalmist declares:
Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints. (Psalm 116:15)
Every tear that pours forth from the shaking eyes of these hated Christians, drips down like a river flowing from the mountains of the sky’s lofty peak, into an eternal ocean that roars like the lion breaking from the shackles of his enemies. The robust beast charges with righteous rage to execute the vengeance of Heaven, storming under the thick clouds of peace, striking with the utmost of love, advancing the Eternal Law, and fulfilling revenge over his enemies with the purest light of justice. As the holy Revelator declares:
Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. (Revelation 5:5)
From the bitterness of the persecuted, the torrent of noble revenge will spring forth. Sweet as the freshest honey, and fierce as the piercing waves of the oldest deluge, will that day be, when the martyrs and the tormented saints will return to vanquish their oppressors. As the prophet Jacob proclaimed:
Judah, your brothers will praise you;
your hand will be on the neck of your enemies;
your father’s sons will bow down to you.
You are a lion’s cub, Judah;
you return from the prey, my son.
Like a lion he crouches and lies down,
like a lioness—who dares to rouse him? (Genesis 49:8-9
Every drop of blood that sprinkles from the severed veins of a Christian, gathers together into a scarlet sea that crimsons the thundering heavens where a chorus of eternal martyrs sing for the marching of war against the enemies of God.
But before that time, we must not remain silent, but help these tormented saints from their current oppression. Rescue Christians has already filed an appeal to overturn the death penalty for this suffering husband and wife. We must continue fighting for their liberation! PLEASE DONATE TO RESCUE SHAFQAT AND SHAGUFTA.
Saif Al-Adlubi told the story when the Egyptian butcher would examine the row of people who were waiting their execution. Al-Adlubi witnessed at least two Armenians who were waiting their turn to be slaughtered since no one paid their ransom, the sum of $100,000 each.
“He grabbed the neck of one elderly Armenian Christian”, says Al-Adlubi, which the Egyptian butcher was about to slaughter. The Egyptian butcher felt the neck of the Christian Armenian saying “you’re an aged man and your neck is soft and I don’t have to sharpen my knife for you”. Others might be more difficult depending on their physique.
Saif Al-Adlubi tells of his miraculous escape to the Turkish village of Rehaniyeh from Syria. He was probably one of the few survivors who sounded the alarm on one of the gruesome systematic human extermination centers carried out by the Takfiri Jihadist group ISIS.
Rescue Christians translated an interview with Al-Adlubi:
(Also see references [here] and from Al-Jazeera [here] and others [here])
The prison centers where the ISIS (Da’ish) controls have become miniatures of what was during the Nazi SS extermination camps, except the ISIS carries out the extermination in a much more horrific way. Da’ish transforms the prisons into kangaroo courts with systematic slaughterhouses and killing centers to exterminate Christians and Muslims who disagree with the Takfiri ideology. Once they are found guilty, the way they deal with the victims was as if they were cattle.
The ISIS stands for The Islamic group of Iraq and Syria. ISIS is also known in Middle East circles as Da’ish. Rescue Christians obtained footage of another slaughterhouse from one Syrian Christian named Kamil Toume to confirm the claims.
It all adds up. Toume confirmed what was told by Al-Adlubi and he provided some leaked footage to prove it:
http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=c1c_1395018660
This is the Siba’ District Human Slaughterhouse in Homs, Syria.
Rescue Christians aided Toume’s plight to escape the fate of his father and sister after they were ritually sacrificed and cremated by Al-Nusra Islamist rebels in Duwair near Homs.
“You never heard of Umm Muhammad slaughterhouse?” Kamil told us when we asked him to comment on the story of Saif Al-Adlubi.
“What do you mean by Umm Muhammad Slaughterhouse”? We asked in unbelief.
The footage is from two separate slaughterhouses, one in Bayyada and the other is even 3 years old in Al-Siba’.
Slaughterhouses has been going on for 3 years in Syria.
Al-Adlubi is Muslim fundamentalist who joined the FSA (Free Syrian Army) and was a militant and a media agent for the FSA. He was captured by Da’ish and tells his horrific tale explaining how he has never experienced or seen such horror under the Assad Regime. He was one of few that made it out when the Syrian militia finally defeated the Da’ish rebels in that specific prison center.
“How could I be considered Kafir (heathen) if I pray and fast?” he asked the prison official as he tells his story to several Arabic news agencies.
“you are “murtad” [apostate]” answered the official.
“I asked him, what is my destiny. I want to get a closure. What is it, a year two years in prison?”
“He said in Arabic “Abshir Bithabih”, in English, “Rejoice, you will be sacrificed”.
According to Dai’sh Islamic theology, he would be sacrificed as a martyr by being slaughtered for his sin. This is not the same fate for Christians who in their view will end up in eternal hellfire.
Before he was freed, Al-Adlubi saw the bodies of young men who were systematically slaughtered and disemboweled.
“The slaughterhouse was on a hill. It is secluded and is void of any homes nearby” says Al-Adlubi. “I witnessed lifeless bodies hanging upside down as if they were slaughtered sheep,” he added.
“In the center of the slaughterhouse is a huge Egyptian about two meters high. He was the one doing the slaughtering”
The Egyptian butcher examines the row of the young and old men who were about to be slaughtered: Armenian Christians, Syrian Christians, Shiites and even Sunnis. Each had to be physically examined. They are decapitated from the root of their necks, their chest cavities are opened and disemboweled and hung upside down. The neck of the aged Christian Armenian man was a simple one.
The stories told by Al-Adlubi and Toume adds up. Toume sent us some footage that circulated the Syrian community after the human slaughterhouse finally ended, and the ugly remaining evidence was revealed when Umm Muhammad’s slaughterhouse in the Siba’ district in Homs was busted by Syrian police 3 years ago in August 2011. This was during the infancy of the revolution in Syria. Umm Muhammad’s slaughterhouse was not operated by Da’ish but by the FSA (Free Syrian Army) during its infancy. The slaughterhouses were in progress for years and only the future will show the extent of such operations. We have also reported in the past how a rare disease (Kuru) that infected Syrians which can only be contracted as a result of cannibalism.
Umm Muhammad was a Sunni woman in charge of dismembering human bodies. In the footage, it can be seen with human bodies being chopped up exactly as is done in a cattle slaughterhouse. What is striking is the way of the superior care in the chipping of the body parts without having clear traces of torture, which indicates that the potential target was to pile the body parts for an unknown reason. The table is the type used in a morgue or in Forensic Medicine.
Al-Adlubi’s story also checks out from footage obtained from Al-Bayyada, another slaughterhouse, which Rescue Christians was able to obtain footage from. And just as Al-Adlubi stated, they were hanging upside down, headless, like slaughtered sheep. The heads were removed from the root of the chest cavity just as Al-Adlubi stated when describing how the Egyptian was doing his meticulous methods and how Toume described the Umm-Muhammad slaughterhouse in Al-Siba’ district.
http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=8f7_1395016026
This is the Al-Bayada Human Slaughterhouse
Saif Al-Adlubi’s nightmare was over when Syrian civilian militia finally swarmed into the Da’ish prison in Edbana.
We report this story because of the silence on the systematic killing of Christians, Shiite minorities and even Sunni Muslims in Syria who disagree with the Takfirist theology. The story is reminiscent to the initial reporting on the extermination of European Jewry and other minorities when little coverage was given to the truth in these days.
We predict that history will repeat itself in the case of Christians in Syria and Iraq. When Dr. Gerhart Riegner, the representative of the World Jewish Congress in Geneva, Switzerland, learned what was going on from a German source. Riegner asked American diplomats in Switzerland to inform Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, one of America’s most prominent Jewish leaders, of the systematic killing centers. But the State Department, characteristically insensitive and influenced by anti-Semitism, decided not to inform Wise.
The rabbi nevertheless learned of Riegner’s terrible message from Jewish leaders in Great Britain. He immediately approached Under Secretary of State Sumner Welles, who asked Wise to keep the information confidential until the government had time to verify it. Wise agreed and it was not until November 1942 that Welles authorized the release of Riegner’s message.
Wise held a press conference on the evening of November 24, 1942. The next day’s New York Times reported his news on its tenth page. Throughout the rest of the war, the Times and most other newspapers failed to give prominent and extensive coverage to the Holocaust.
In the case for Syria, history is repeating itself. Rescue Christians will do a press release for media interviews to speak to Mr. Toume and the plight of Syrian Christians and how his family were murdered by rebel forces in Syria.
The cruelty expressed by the Muslims in the Syrian slaughterhouses is reminiscent to the violence perpetuated by the Ottoman Turks.
For example, the Egyptian executioner who told the elderly Armenian man that his neck was soft and easy to cut parallels the hatred which the Ottoman Muslims expressed toward the Armenians. Today we have actual footage on how the extermination of the Armenians was carried out.
A German, who was present in the Armenian Genocide, was running an orphanage in the area of Moush where the Turks were conducting their massacres. When he asked a Turkish officer in charge if the Armenian children of the orphanage would be given guaranteed safe passage, the Turk replied:
You can take them with you, but being Armenians their heads may and will be cut off on the way. (1)
In the slaughterhouses in Syria, there are countless corpses, all severely mutilated and cut into parts. This is exactly what the Turks did to Christians in their infamous Genocide.
Turkish peasants seized entire multitudes of Armenians and cut their bodies into pieces while they were still alive. A letter written by an anonymous source recounts how Turkish farmers cut to pieces a large body of Armenian men with their farming tools:
In the valley of Beyhan Boghazi, six or seven hours’ distance from the town, they were attacked by a wild horde of Turkish peasants, and, in pursuance of the order, were all massacred with clubs, hammers, axes, scythes, spades, saws — in a word, with every implement that causes a slow and painful death. Some shore off their heads, ears, noses, hands, feet with scythes; others put out their eyes. …The bodies of the victims were left in pieces in the valley, to be devoured by the wild beasts. (2)
William Willard Howard, an eye-witness to the Armenian Genocide, actually described how the Turks mutilated and cut to pieces the bodies of Christians:
…the soles of his feet are held before an open fire until the flesh drops off. After that his tongue may be pulled out, or red hot irons thrust into his eyes. If he is not dead by this time he is hacked to pieces with knives. (3)
Samuel Gridley Howe, an American who helped the Greek Christians revolt against the Turkish occupation in the 19th century, described the massacre of the Greek Christians by the Turks as a literal slaughterhouse, with severed body parts and decapitated heads being found without number. He described one massacre of a Greek town as such:
[T]he Turkish troops gathered round the town, rushed in among the defenseless inhabitants, and begun to butcher all they found. …And a few hours were sufficient for all this; a few hours of rapine and murder had changed the beautiful town to a scene of utter devastation; to a slaughter-house, still steaming with the blood of thousands of all ages, and of both sexes, whose mutilated and headless bodies, lay in every direction about the streets (4)
The slaughterhouses in Syria are really centers for ritual human sacrifices. Rescue Christians even obtained footage to prove this as well:
http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=6ad_1395015674
In the video, which is filmed at yet another unknown slaughterhouse, the executioner declares this prayer before making the slaughter:
In defense of the Sunnis O Lord, O Lord, We bring these offerings to you, O Lord. Please accept this sacrificial offering, O Lord. O Lord, accept this from us, accept this from us. In the name of Allah. Bismillah (In the name of Allah). Allahu Akbar
The victims could be shot or slaughtered, but one thing is true, these are ritualistic killings.
This can be deduced by paralleling the slaughterhouses in Syria to Islamic ideology in regards to shedding Christian blood, which can be observed in historical accounts. For example, Howe, an eyewitness to Turkish violence, recounted that the Muslim Turks “thought the blood of a Christian an acceptable offering to God.” (5)
Now, in conjunction with this statement, here is an account of John Eshoo, an Assyrian reverend who survived the Assyrian Genocide under the Turks, in which he refers to the carnage as a literal slaughter house and describes how the Muslims butchered the Christians in the same fashion as the system of animal sacrifice during the Islamic fasts:
The fearful place became literally a human slaughter house, receiving its speechless victims, in groups of ten and twenty at a time, for execution. … These helpless Assyrians marched like lambs to their slaughter, and they opened not their mouth, save by sayings “Lord, into thy hands we commit our spirits. The executioners began by cutting first the fingers of their victims, join by joint, till the two hands were entirely amputated. Then they were stretched on the ground, after the manner of the animals that are slain in the Fast, but these with their faces turned upward, and their heads resting upon the stones or blocks of wood Then their throats were half cut, so as to prolong their torture of dying, and while struggling in the agony of death, the victims were kicked and clubbed by heavy poles the murderers carried Many of them, while still laboring under the pain of death, were thrown into ditches and buried before their souls had expired. (6)
All of this sadism and cruelty was done in the fashion of an Islamic animal sacrifice, and in the Muslim religion, it is permitted that a human being replace the animal in the sacrificial rituals. This theology of human sacrifice is based upon the very ancient story of Khalid Abdullah al-Kasri, who ritually sacrificed Jaad bin Durham in the place of an animal on the Islamic holiday of The Festival of Sacrifice. He dragged Durham into a mosque, and before spilling his blood, proclaimed:
O people, sacrifice, Allah accepted your sacrifices. I am now sacrificing Jaad bin Durham.
The story is accepted as orthodox by several of the most forceful Muslim theologians during the history of Islam like Al-Shafi’, Ibin Tayymiya, Bukhari, Dhahabi, Ibin Al-Qiyam, Darami and Ibin Katheer.
This is the reality of Islam, it is a pagan and utterly depraved and sadistic religion. It takes the soul of a man and purges any remnants of human affection from his very being. Look to your own soul, and understand your own obligation to help the Christians from this horror. Please donate to save Christian lives in Syria.

Muslims in Nigeria attacked a college and mercilessly slaughtered dozens of students. They burned them alive, shot them dead, and when some tried to escape through the windows, they seized them and slit their throats.
It has been estimated that 40 students were murdered in the attack on the Federal Government College Buni Yadi, but soldiers are still counting the corpses.
The jihadists at first set fire to the college administrative block, they then attacked the college dorms, wherein they locked the students in and began firebombing them. One professor said:
students were trying to climb out of the windows and they were slaughtered like sheep by the terrorists who slit their throats. Others who ran were gunned down.
This is the reality of Islam; it is a road that springs from the depths of the hell, whose end is only perdition, tyranny, and destruction.
One student and witness recounted the horrifying and disturbing event:
I heard the cries of some people outside the school even before they [the militants] invaded the school …From where I was hiding I could hear other students crying at the top of their voices. I saw fire on the roofs of the hostels and other buildings in the school. But God saved my life. After they killed the students and burnt the structures, they fled.
So where are all of the sodomite and sycophantical homosexual sympathizers? Why aren’t they marching to Nigeria with their cameras, their pompous and outwardly righteous and objective dispositions and proud stances and tones of voice, with their use of the words “justice” and “liberty”? Oh, that is right, they are too busy harassing Christians in Russia and Uganda. Why come to Nigeria because Christians are being killed? Because the left wing media not only does not care about dead Christians, they take pleasure in it.
In the Syrian city of Raqqa, Muslims, who are a part of the jihadist group The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), have imposed taxation on the Christians living there.
Its called Jizya, a taxed imposed on non-Muslims in Sharia code, and it is a part of the Pact of Umar, with which Muslims have been suppressing Christians since Islam’s very beginnings.
The despotic code forbids the presentation of any crucifixes, the restoration of destroyed churches, church bells, and praying in public.
Sounds like what the Leftists and Progressives want to establish in the West. No wonder they are so careless and indifferent to the sufferings of Christians.
After the Muslims declared that Sharia would be imposed on the Christians in Raqqa, 20 Christians leaders accepted the enforced code.
Watch this video of a Christian man’s testimony, in which he (a modern day St. Paul) explains how he was sentenced to death by the Muslim government, how he was tortured, almost beaten to death, placed in a crazy house for years, placed in another prison for several more years, and then how he was finally delivered (by the grace and will of God) by Rescue Christians:
Last year a mob of Muslims surrounded a church in Indonesia, throwing rocks and frothing from their poisonous lips were their declarations of blasphemy. They hung up signs with demonic statements such as, “Jesus is a dog” and “Kill the Christians.” They threw rocks, dirt, and even bags of urine at the church and the Christians.
This is just scratching the service as to the depth of depravity and vileness in which the heresy of Islam plunges a man’s soul. And all of this deplorable violence took place as the police stood by and watched.
The liberty to have actually just having a church in Indonesia is grueling and unendurable to say the least. One church had to pay more than a million U.S. dollars to acquire a permit, and the permit is suppose to be free.
In the year 2012, International Christian Concern found that at least 50 churches were forced to close down in Indonesia.
And the demons who fell from Heaven are ever so more taking the souls of the Muslims. Just look at this photo from a recent Islamic rally in Egypt — you can just see the demonic possession in this man’s eyes:
Among the most important concerns of people who make charitable contributions is that their money actually ends up going directly toward the cause for which it is intended. When that cause is halfway around the world, in a region where corruption is in no short supply, such concerns are even more warranted.
Moreover, when the cause is rescuing Christians in Pakistan, we know about this all too well, as the suicide bombings at the All Saints Church in Peshawar have demonstrated. There are entities and individuals on the ground in Pakistan that take advantage of donors’ good intentions. We are very sensitive to these abuses and it is for that reason that we have decided to produce copies of hospital bills for individuals who’ve benefited directly from your donations.
Here is a message from Keith Davies, Executive Director of Rescue Christians:
While we cannot supply full transparency on how your money is used out of concerns about security, showing you copies of the initial hospital bills to help the victims of bombing is one thing we can do to show some of that transparency. The actual rescue work our people do is not only sensitive but very dangerous. Recently, three of our team members in Pakistan were detained by police only because they spoke with different dialects and looked different while working in the Peshawar area. This shows us how our work is closely monitored by the Pakistani government; there are other examples which we cannot publish.
Thankfully, our leaders on the ground were able secure their release within a few hours. Not only do we have to deal with the Islamic extremists – both inside and outside the Pakistani government – but also with corrupt Church leaders as well as people who look to make money off the tragedy of others’ persecution. Our teams on the ground are doing unbelievable work (I deal with them daily) despite facing these obstacles. Please continue to both pray and – if you can – support this holy work. Please click here to do so.
Below, you will see copies of hospital receipts mentioned above (click each image to enlarge). NOTE: The receipts below are watermarked for one simple, but unfortunate reason. Our concern is that NGO’s might claim these documents as their own for fraudulent purposes.
