Karaite
Karaite, Karaim or Qaraim root word is; “kara,” which means; “reader.” The Muslim Kara-n (Qaran/ Quran or Koran), means the “Reading” or the “Book of the Qaraims”. All Muslims are Karaites (Qaraims) and are readers of the Karan (Koran).
The founder of Islam and author of the Muslim Karan (Koran/ Quran) was Muhammad ibn Abdullah. The original Karaites (Qaraims) were Muslim and used the Karan (Koran), Tehudah (The original New Testaments), Torwah.
Islam nor Karaism are not similar to the teachings of the Sadducees, thus Islam nor Karaites are of the lineage of the Sadducees, nor Jewish.
Because of geographical, kingdoms and language barriers, Karaites and Karaism Karans varied greatly. Thus modern Karaites and Karaism can be confusing, depending on the organization, are blends of Islam and incorporate the various amounts of teachings and vocabulary of the Pharisees. As Muslims, many Karaites believe Isa, (Yesa or Jesus) to be a prophet. Many Karaites were Christians, and claimed not to be ethnically Jewish.
Modern Karaite Karans and Siddurs are from the 9th thru the 10th centuries, and was mostly written in Iraq, as a Muslim splinter sect.
Then from 1956, especially in the past two decades there are new Karaite organizations that claim to be “Jewish Karaites?” They are Muslims evangelizing Jews and Christians into their splinter Muslim group; as Shia-Sufi (Jews for Allah). Even though many of these Karaite sites claim not to be Muslim nor Christian, Karaites and Karaism is a Muslim faith. Don’t be deceived into their splinter Muslim faith. Muslims uses Karaite and Karaism as the first step to convert Jews and Christians into Islam.
These new “Jewish Karaites” claim to use the Tanakh only, but they quickly introduce their new converts to 9th and 10th century Muslim doctrine and Siddurs. Then they begin to encourage the study of the Talmuds as “Yoke of Inheritance” (to fool their converts into thinking they are linked to a Jewish organization), then Tehudah, then Quran, and before they know it, they have been tricked into being a Muslim.
If the Karaite leaders uses Muslim titles Hakham, Muslim terminology and dress like Muslims, it is because they are Muslims. Have you ever heard or read of a Karaite that criticizes the Koran? It is because the Koran is the foundation of their faith. Go to you library and check out a Koran, and read it, all Muslims have vowed to kill all “Jews and Christians.”
It is a historical fact that; Karaites do not except converts! But these new “Jewish Karaites” claim to except converts? If you convert to Karaite or Karaism you are a; “Muslim!” A Islamic religion based on hatred and Jihad.
And the Israeli government and the Jewish population in Israel, do not consider Karaites as being Jewish. Don’t be naïve; Karaites are Muslims. And if you aliyah to Israel as a Karaite you may one day find yourself in the Gaza Strip with your fellow Muslims as a Jihadist.
As with other Islamic splinter groups, there are a lot of lies and deceptions. And if you are not Aramaic nor understand their culture and ideologies, you can and will be easy deceived. Stick to what you are familiar with and understand, or you will be deceived into joining a splinter Muslim sect.
Beware of any Aramaic organization or group that claims to use the Tanakh only, then tries to teach Muslim 9th and 10th century writings and theology. If you are not Aramaic, stay away from anything Muslim.
The numbers of Karaites in Israel and worldwide are greatly exaggerated. The small recent Karaite activity is due to the world wide web. There are about ten Muslim Karaites, with many aliases that do most “all” of the activity on the Karaite websites and Karaite groups and chats. Just beware, they are masters of deception.
Do not turn to a foreign religion that you know little of, where you will be easily deceived. You do not need Muslims Karaites sect’s 9th and 10th century Karans, theology, doctrines or Siddurs. You are better off by starting your own organizations and just use the Tanakh. The Tanakh has everything you need to obey The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, as a Jew or a Noahide. Then learn Hebrew, and study the Tanakh in Hebrew. Then trust God, and He will lead you on the path of righteous.
* Note; Malkut Yehudah at; http://www.yehudah.org is not a Karaite movement, they are a Judean/ Sadducean movement, based on the lives of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and their Judeans reject all post Temple era writings as the Talmuds, Roman New Testaments, Tehudah, Muslim Quran and Karaite Karans.
