Did Adolph Hitler really use muslim divisions of his army to assist in his genocide of Jewish people?

Question

Many people say Hitler was a great admirer of Islam for they despised Jews just as he did.. true?

Happily Happy-
Although Hitler was raised Catholic, as an adult he was not a Christian. It was a well known fact that he was obsessed with the occult and black magic; that's where his motivation came for his vegetarianism-- the reason he didn't eat meat had nothing to do with health reasons or that he was opposed to killing animals (obviously). He was vegetarian because he believed it increased his spiritual (dark side) power...

Happily Happy... did you forget this verse from the Qur'an ?
Qur'an 5:51 "Believers, take not Jews and Christians for your friends. They are but friends and protectors to each other."

or this one from Tabari
Tabari 7:97 The morning after the murder of Ashraf, the Prophet [Muhammad] declared, "Kill any Jew who falls under your power."

Answer 1

It is historical fact that the leaders of the Arab world, such as the Grand Mufti in Jerusalem, were personal friends of Hitler and that they supported his attempted genocide against the Jews.

Muslim men DID fight on Hitler's side and in addition, in the middle east the Arab leaders OPENLY declared their wish to 'continue' what Hitler had started; they vowed to wipe out every last Jew living in what was then Palestine.

This is in fact very significant, because it shows what a lie it is when some people claim that prior to Israel, the Muslims had 'no problem with Jews'. They hated the Jews even before the establishment of Israel. Again, this is historical fact.

Answer 2

As a Jew and an amateur historian, I am sure Hitler wanted the Muslims to help in his quest to eradicate Jews. He would have never accepted Muslim divisions into his army because they were not of the Aryan Race. The only Middle Eastern Country that is Aryan is Iran and was to far for Hitler's grasp. He did make many divisions in his army from different countries, mostly just to have the additional manpower. The true Holocaust was inspired by Hitler, encouraged by his inner circle, and carried out by the German SS. Many other people from other countries abetted the Holocaust because they mistakenly thought that if they did that it would be easier on them if they followed Hitler's call. They were wrong.

Answer 3

Hitler was not healthy in his mind so the chance of him following the Muslim religion is pretty high. He did really stupid things so he may have done that also, it would not surprise me. The Bible says that God will Bless those who bless the Jews, and Curse those who curse the Jews. I challange you to look around and see what happened to Hitler, and any one else that has brought harm to the Jewish people. Remember when all of the Countries on all sides of Israel decided to declare war on Israel all at once? That war only lasted six days and Israel WON! I see what happens to countries that bring harm to the Jewish Nation and I don't want to be one of them! I pray that as long as America stands that they stand on the side of Israel!!! Because God chose the Jews and the Muslim Religion is simply a distorted Judaism, and a perverted form of Christianity that came from the fervid imagination of Muhammad in about 622, that is the first year of the Muslim calander. Muhammad was actually thrown out of Mecca because people found him to be crazy. So they sent him and his family out of the city to live in the wilderness, where he finished making up his new religion that looked to him as their leader and prophet. So now you can see how he and Hitler were very simular in personality. Both were crazy. So there is a good chance that Hitler looked up to him for merging the two religions into one. But just because Muhammad did it does not mean that it was correct. He tampered with Scriptures and the bible says that the price of that sin is death, he will have life taken away from him. And if he added to the Scriptures, he would get the plagues of the Bible added to him. We see so many crazy people in the scriptures so because of him being crazy, I end up taking care of him, not happy at all

Answer 4

There were very few Muslims in Europe in the 1940s, so the story sounds bogus. In Yugoslavia, where the Bosnian Serbs do make up an indigenous European Muslim population, the Nazis sided with the Croatian militia against Jewish and Serbian elements. The Muslim leader of Jerusalem, the Grand Mufti, was Hitler's personal guest and did help organize military action against the Jewish settlers in the British protectorate of Palestine (now Israel). Hitler was not so much an admirer of Islam as a despiser of Christianity with its emphasis on forgiveness and peace. Hitler was an avowed atheist and believed in the superiority of the German people.

Answer 5

Hitler was a catholic who admired islam a great deal. He admired the no-nonsense hard-line approached and lamented the fact he was a christian at times.

It wouldn't surprise me if he did use islam forces. He was also close to the pope at the time and also wealthy families abroad.

Answer 9

No, no, no. If this bull crap was true, why wasn't anything brought up about it during that era? All this propaganda just started during the two President Bushes administration to distract the American idiots, away from their screw ups. Let the Muslims be. Focus on who's setting up colonies all thru the U. S. Look in you backyard, you might see someone illegal back their.

Answer 10

100% true...in fact...the Muslim SS divsions were the last troopers defending Berlin to the very end.
