All well and good but Umar doesn’t have a cult.That's terribly sad and enraging at the same time. Umar in so many ways puts me in mind of a cult leader.

"Having studied at length the life, teachings, and behaviors of Jim Jones (Jonestown Guyana), David Koresh (Branch Davidians), Stewart Traill (The Church of Bible Understanding), Charles Manson, Shoko Asahara (Aum Shinrikyo), Joseph Di Mambro (The Order of the Solar Temple aka Ordre du Temple Solaire), Marshall Heff Applewhit (Heaven’s Gate), Bhagwan Rajneesh (Rajneesh Movement), and Warren Jeffs (polygamist leader),
what stands out about these individuals is that
they were or are all pathologically narcissistic.
They all have or had an over-abundant belief that they were special,
that they and they alone had the answers to problems,
and that they had to be revered.
They demanded perfect loyalty from followers,
they overvalued themselves and devalued those around them,
they were intolerant of criticism,
and above all they did not like being questioned or challenged.
And yet, in spite of these less than charming traits, they had no trouble attracting those who were willing to overlook these features."
