Cardinal Dolan Hails ‘Our Islamic Brothers and Sisters,’ Calls Ash Wednesday ‘Our Ramadan’...

ONLY TRUE RELIGION
"O My children, I will not go into a long discourse now with you about charity and love for your neighbor, but you must understand: you cannot judge your neighbor. You must pray for them. However, you cannot become weak and permissive. You must stand forth as bearers of the light, carriers of the truth. You have been given by your baptism entrance into the only true religion upon earth, the Roman Catholic Church under My Son, Jesus. Though man in his arrogance and pride has forgotten His role and His rule, you must carry it forward. Retain the Faith and the truth in the hearts of mankind." - Our Lady, September 7, 1978

TIME OF THE APOCALYPSE
“Bishops and cardinals in My Son’s Church, you have fallen asleep. You go about with your heads in the clouds, dusty clouds, dark clouds that blind you. Awaken from your slumber while there is time. The time is growing short. How many earth-years do I come to you to warn you? You cannot hide the truth now, My children and My pastors. It is too late. The time of the Apocalypse is upon you; your days are numbered. You must save now your soul and the souls of all under your care. Convert the unbeliever while there is time.” - Our Lady, May 30, 1978

On Friday, Timothy Cardinal Dolan, the Archbishop of New York, posted on X: “Ramadan starts tomorrow! Ramadan is the season of penance for our Islamic brothers and sisters. Do they ever take it seriously! I tell you that because Ash Wednesday is coming up – that’s kind of like our Ramadan.” These generous statements were entirely in keeping with the spirit of ecumenism that Pope Francis has advocated so assiduously, and so the cardinal’s words came as no surprise, but their graciousness was no guarantor of their accuracy. Unfortunately, virtually every part of Dolan’s statement was wrong, and some of it was dangerously misleading.

Ramadan is not, first off, exactly a “season of penance.” It does involve self-denial and cultivation of a sense of self-control, although the gorging all night somewhat mitigates the ascetic effect of the fasting all day, the focus is not primarily upon penance. Nobody “gives something up for Ramadan.” Ramadan superficially resembles Lent in that it is a season for Muslims to redouble their efforts to please Allah, but in Islam, this takes on a radically different form from efforts to please God in Christianity. (Note for those who need it: yes, “Allah” is the Arabic word for God — actually “the God,” and yes, Arabic-speaking Christians do use the word, although some, notably Copts, shy away from doing so because of its association with the God of the Qur’an. I am using it here to refer to that God.)

The highest form of service to Allah, according to Islam’s prophet Muhammad, is jihad, which principally involves warfare against unbelievers. A hadith has a Muslim asking Muhammad: “Instruct me as to such a deed as equals Jihad (in reward).” Muhammad replied, “I do not find such a deed” (Bukhari 4.52.44). So what better way to increase one’s devotion to Allah than by waging jihad? Every Ramadan, therefore, we see an increase in jihad attacks. This is hardly something that Cardinal Dolan should be celebrating, but of course, he is certain that Islam is a religion of peace and that anybody who tells him otherwise is just an “Islamophobe.”

Dolan also calls Muslims the “brothers and sisters” of Roman Catholics. In fact, that is not how Muslims regard Christians. Is Dolan aware of these Qur’an passages? (Spoiler: no, he isn’t.) The Qur’an calls “the people of the book,” which includes Christians, “the most vile of created beings” (98:6). It says that those who believe in the divinity of Christ are unbelievers (5:17, 5:72). It denies the crucifixion (4:157) and the Trinity (4:171), although it assumes that the Trinity includes Allah, Jesus and Mary (5:116).

The Qur’an also insists that Allah has no son and that those who say Jesus is the Son of God are under the curse of Allah (19:35, 9:30). Above all, it calls upon Muslims to fight against and subjugate “the people of the book,” making them accept the hegemony of the Muslims (9:29). Thus Cardinal Dolan would be hard-pressed to find a devout and knowledgeable Muslim who would avow that these accursed Christians were his “brothers and sisters.”

The cardinal also praises Muslims for taking Ramadan so seriously. Is he aware (spoiler: no) of how often Muslims (and non-Muslims) are punished for not observing Ramadan? Observance of Ramadan is all too often a matter of fear, not devotion. Back in March 2024, Nigerian police arrested eleven Muslims who were caught eating during daylight hours in Ramadan. Around the same time, the French-language Valeurs Actuelles reported on an incident in which two Muslims attacked a non-Muslim in a detention center for not observing the Ramadan fast. The following month, four Muslim teens brutally beat a 13-year-old Muslim girl on a bus for the same reason.

French politician Marion Maréchal declared that “Ramadan is the barometer of the Islamization of French society.” Maréchal was referring to the normalization of Ramadan in France and all over the West, which Dolan certainly aided with his fulsome message on Friday. It is unlikely that such a meeting would ever occur, but Cardinal Dolan would do well to have a meeting with Maréchal and discuss with her why she believes that the observance of Ramadan is not something that Western countries should see as wholesome and salutary.

And finally, in saying that Ash Wednesday, and by extension Lent, was “our Ramadan,” Dolan had the historical order reversed. Lent did not come after Ramadan and was not derived from it, but the Muslim period of fasting was indeed influenced by Christian practice. Why is Dolan placing Christians in a subordinate position to Muslims in this regard when the Qur’an itself directs Muslims to fight Christians until they “feel themselves subdued” (9:29)?

Cardinal Dolan may one day discover that he was unwittingly encouraging elements that no one, churchman or otherwise, should have encouraged. By then, however, it could be too late.

MANY FALSE RELIGIONS
"Many sciences, many false religions will try--I say try--to take the place of truth, personified by your God. Believe Me, My children, when I tell you they only succeed for the moment, for all this will be evened out in the time of the destruction. For the goats will be separated from the sheep. The eyes of Heaven are upon you. Bring My words to your neighbors, for We need all to be apostles for the Father in the recovery of souls." - Our Lady, December 24, 1970
