‘Holy War’: Muslim Mother Names Her 13-Pound Baby ‘Jihad’

Baby Jihad (Image Source: Germany's "The Local")
A mother in Germany has given her newborn baby a show-stopping name that is sure to cause him grief in years to come: Jihad.
Those familiar with the radical Islam know the term well, as militants often use it to justify their actions against non-believers whom they continue to wage a “holy war” against.
Daily Mail has more about the odd name selection, especially considering the current situation in Germany:
Jihad was born in Germany where there are growing tensions between its citizens and the increasing immigrant Muslim community.
Germany has the largest Muslim population in Western Europe after France. Some 3.5 million Muslims live in the country, and 80 per cent of them do not have German citizenship.
Eventually, Jihad will have to endure questions surrounding why his mother, Elfi Yaghi, chose to give him such a bizarre name. Additionally, the child, who coincidentally weighed 13 pounds at birth, is also the heaviest natural-born baby in German history.
According to ABC News, Yaghi is apparently 528 pounds. The baby’s weight, which is well above what doctors would usually recommend to be safe to have a natural delivery, may have been impacted by the woman’s gestational diabetes.
With this form of diabetes, high blood sugar is detected in the mother during pregnancy. While Yaghi claims she didn’t know about the disease, doctors believe that she was, indeed, aware, but that she chose to eat sugary foods anyway.
Yaghi, 40, already has 13 other children and is said to be a devout Muslim. So far, she has given little information regarding why she chose to name her child after the “war” that has divided the Muslim world and the west.

Posted on November 28, 2011 at 9:59amI’m not surprised. I don’t think Jihad as a name is as rare or uncommon as the author thinks/realizes. I know of at least one other muslim family who have a son they named Jihad. Of course, they take the p.o.v. that it’s about the internal spiritual struggle – not violent terrorism.
Problem is, perception. Sure, you can say you don’t care or that you have a different, “good” motive behind the name, but naming a child is very important. It can send a message and it can affect the individual as well as those who interact with that individual.

Posted on November 28, 2011 at 10:43amI would say that the Jewish, Gloria Rachel Bloom, changing her name to Gloria Allred, as an adult and with much thought, is of far more concern. She’s part of the Jewish led movement to kibbutz-ism, commune living, communism in America. She is the poster child.

Posted on November 28, 2011 at 9:27amSo let me get this straight…..this obese woman has 13 kids and more than likely lives of the government of Germany who undoubtedly paid for each of those births. And she names a child “Jihad” in the spirit of overturning the current German government (speculation, but not a stretch)?

Posted on November 28, 2011 at 8:48amStop calling them Muslims, they are not Muslim (submitted to God) they are Mohammedans which is a Mohammed worshiper and a term they don’t like. Only Christians can technically be labeled as Muslim. All Western Christians need to have another baby boom in order to keep up with the pace of all the terrorists they are popping out. For every terrorist they pop out we need to pop out a soldier to take them out.

This story reminds me of the scene from Aliens when Ripley finds the ‘Mother’ alien squeezing out all the ‘eggs’ of the baby aliens. That‘s what this ’woman’ seems to be doing. At least, she‘s Germany’s problem until WE have to bail out Germany.
Hopefully, at the baby shower someone will take pity on society and buy Mother an extra large black plastic garbage bag to wear. I wonder if Lufthansa will give her a discount on the three seats she’ll take up if she has to fly somewhere. Just a thought, did the father have to use flour to find the wet spot in order to…. never mind….
