The Legacy of Islamic Antisemitism, Amherst, N.Y., 2008, pp. 31-76; and 209-312 for a sampling of the extensive canonical Islamic sources of Jew-hatred, from the Koran, the most authoritative Koranic exegeses, the hadith, and the sira (earliest pious Muslim biographies of Muhammad). See pp. 394, 33 for a contemporary example from the late Sunni Muslim Papal equivalent, Grand Imam of Al-Azhar University between 1996-2010, Muhammad Sayyid Tantawi (d. March, 2010), which recapitulates much of el-Husseini’s October 4, 1944 statement:

[The] Koran describes the Jews with their own particular degenerate characteristics, i.e. killing the prophets of Allah [Koran 2:61/ 3:112], corrupting His words by putting them in the wrong places, consuming the people’s wealth frivolously, refusal to distance themselves from the evil they do, and other ugly characteristics caused by their deep-rooted lasciviousness…only a minority of the Jews keep their word…[A]ll Jews are not the same. The good ones become Muslims [Koran 3:113], the bad ones do not. …[T]he Jews always remain maleficent deniers….they should desist from their negative denial…some Jews went way overboard in their denying hostility, so gentle persuasion can do no good with them, so use force with them and treat them in the way you see as effective in ridding them of their evil. One may go so far as to ban their religion, their persons, their wealth, and their villages.[p. 394]

. . . anyone who avoids meeting with the enemies in order to counter their dubious claims and stick fingers into their eyes, is a coward. My stance stems from Allah’s book [the Koran], more than one third of which deals with the Jews. . . . [I] wrote a dissertation dealing with them [the Jews], all their false claims and their punishment by Allah. I still believe in everything written in that dissertation. (i.e., cited above, in Banu Isra’il fi al-Qur’an wa al-Sunna) [p. 33]
