Islam Under Scrutiny by Ex-Muslims

Former Catholic Convert to Islam: Study Islam and Leave It

I was raised in a very strict Catholic family and grew up in a loving environment. I converted to Islam long ago. Even though my conversion was a big shock for my parents, they always considered me as their beloved son.
Many people convert to Islam because their partner is Muslim. They think Islam is equal to Christianity plus Muhammad: a type of 2.1 version of the Windows of religion. For men like me this is because it is a (legal) obligation or necessity to marry a Muslim woman. Women mostly convert because their partner shows so much love for his religion and the rituals (praying, fasting, ...) have a charming effect, and to come closer to their partner, they just want to join in and convert. One falls in love with the so-called Islamic atmosphere and solidarity without knowing what Islam really is about.

When I proposed to my fiancé, she wanted me to convert to Islam, which I did. I realize now that it was not wise to convert to a religion, which I hardly knew anything about. So I converted to Islam without studying it carefully.

This is a very common phenomenon; I’d even say it’s typical. The Muslim(a) with whom one has a personal friendship or relation knows very little about Islam her/himself, did not study it systematically and does not even know how to start studying it in a systematic way.

If one asks information about Islam to Muslims, they will give you a few innocent books to show how beautiful Islam is. These books are mostly misleading and even texts written by the "Centre for Islam in Europe", linked to the University of Gent (Belgium) are a twist of "real Islam" and a denial of the teachings of the four main Schools of Islam. The pattern of their thinking is that the good verses of the Quran are generally applicable and the passages that call for violence are contextual and only meant for a specific situation. The Quran however does not make this distinction. These books justify the negative side of Islam by very “creative” reasoning, by concealing things, by wrong translations from Arabic and by outright lies.

My conversion to Islam was in a period of my life in which I was building up my career and family life and there was no room for studying Islam. As a matter of fact, I had no idea how to start studying it. At the time, there was no Internet yet.

I think very few people, Muslims as as well candidate-Muslims, understand anything of the Quran. The reason is simple: the Quran is badly structured, very confusing and jumps from one subject to another. It’s an endless repetition of the same theme: believe in Allah and his Messenger Muhammad or you will receive the most horrible punishments in hell. This is repeated endlessly. Hundreds of times.

I have never met anyone, who can tell me which verses he or she was moved by or found touching, or new things Muhammad brought that weren’t already in Christianity or Judaism except the well-developed Jihad doctrine, and the threat and declaring as enemy anyone who does not believe in Allah and Muhammad. There must be war until the whole world accepts Islamic laws, as illustrated in the following Quranic verses and in a tradition/hadith considered as authentic:

Quran 2:193. "And fight with them until there is no persecution, and religion should be only for Allah, but if they desist, then there should be no hostility except against the oppressors."

Quran 8:39. "And fight with them until there is no more persecution and religion should be only for Allah; but if they desist, then surely Allah sees what they do."

Bukhari 2:24: Allah's Apostle said: "I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah's Apostle, and offer the prayers perfectly and give the obligatory charity, so if they perform a that, then they save their lives and property from me except for Islamic laws and then their reckoning (accounts) will be done by Allah."

The Quran is undoubtedly the miracle of Islam. I really think Muhammad was an incredible genius to “sell” a book with....

  1. Absurdities (the sun goes down in a muddy pond Quran 18.86)

  2. Contradictions (initially everyone has the right to choose his own religion, Quran chapter 109, and in the end polytheists have to be killed in Quran 9.5),

  3. Logical mistakes in thinking (according to the Quran, verse 4.157, the Jews say that Jesus is the Messiah and a Prophet of Allah, which they never did)

  4. threats (the unbelievers are fuel for hell Quran, 2.24)

... as a book coming from Allah and the top of communication between Allah and mankind—the perfect book. In the meantime this book became so holy that mistreating it can be a legitimate reason for murder.

As a matter of fact, even devout Muslims will confirm that the Quran is hard to understand. They even prove it by the existence of the so-called tafsirs, Quranic commentaries. The Quran claims to be a guide for the believer but to understand it one needs 10 more books. This cannot be right! A guiding book has to be clear!

In one respect the Quran is rather harmless for a candidate-Muslim. It is so boring and unreadable that hardly anybody gets any further than the first few pages, then gives up. Personally, I don’t know any book that is so confusing. I think there is none. It wouldn’t get published anyway.

A few years ago, I mentioned to my wife that all news about Islam was so negative that I wondered what Islam really teaches. She told me there were no secrets and that everything was written in the books. Of course, I had Muslims confirm that these were the best sources and I could buy them from online Islamic bookstores. I searched the Internet to make a list of original source-books on Islam and I purchased these books. I have read the following 20 books:

1. The Quran

2. The authentic traditions of Muhammad (Sahih Hadith) by Bukhari: 9 books

3. A summary of the authentic traditions of Muhammad by (Sahih) Muslim: 2 books

4. Life of the Prophet: oldest biography by Ibn Ishaq

5. Life of the Prophet: Tabari: 4 books

6. Life of the Prophet: Ibn Sa'd: 2 books

7. Shariah book called Umdat as-salik / Reliance of the Traveller of the Shafi'i school (1 of the 4 large schools of Islam recognized by the Al-Azhar university in Egypt). This is not an original source but it is how the Quran, the hadith and the biographies of the Muhammad are interpreted by Muslim scholars and are being turned into laws. This book is incredibly user-friendly and I use it to check my interpretation of the Quran and the Hadith.

This Shariah book does not contain any surprises because it is consistent with the Quran and the Sahih Hadith.

After reading these books, I could no longer remain a Muslim. There is no greater insult to Muhammad as a prophet and for Islam as an ideology, than the Quran and the original sources of Islam: books written by Allah and Muslims for Muslims. That is why websites that criticise Islam advise everyone to study Islam from these original sources.

What is written in these books is too crazy for words. Many practices that we consider as immoral in the 21st century have been permitted by Muhammad.

I have found the following issues very disturbing:

1. Slavery

Muhammad was keeping slaves and made trade in them. This means that slavery is part of Islam forever. Slavery has only been abolished in Muslim countries under Western pressure. Therefore, slavery can be reinstated at any time. Islamic legislation concerning slavery is being reprinted up till today by the main schools of Islam, so that scholars are aware of it. Furthermore Islam allows female slaves and female prisoners of war to be raped on condition that well-established rules are followed.

Muhammad himself encouraged this, see the following authentic tradition/hadith transmitted by Muslim. The title of chapter 29 is already very revealing:

Sahih Muslim 8:29: “IT IS PERMISSIBLE TO HAVE SEXUAL INTERCOURSE WITH A CAPTIVE WOMAN AFTER SHE IS PURIFIED (OF MENSES OR DELIVERY) IN CASE SHE HAS A HUSBAND, HER MARRIAGE IS ABROGATED AFTER SHE BECOMES CAPTIVE.”

Sahih Muslim 8:3432: “Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that at the Battle of Hunain Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) sent an army to Autas and encountered the enemy and fought with them. Having overcome them and taken them captives, the Companions of Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) seemed to refrain from having intercourse with captive women because of their husbands being polytheists. Then Allah, Most High, sent down regarding that:" And women already married, except those whom your right hands possess (verse 4:24)" (i.e., they were lawful for them when their 'Idda period came to an end).”


2. The humiliating position of women

They cannot decide whom they get married to and can be divorced any time without any formality. ... or can be exchanged for another woman. Quran 4:20 says:

“And if you wish to have (one) wife in place of another and you have given one of them a heap of gold, then take not from it anything; would you take it by slandering (her) and (doing her) manifest wrong?”

Women have to obey their husbands and if the husband fears she will not obey she may be beaten. Quran 4:34:

" Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and (as to) those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in the sleeping-places and beat them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great."

Note: "beat them (fem. pl.)" in Arabic, is often translated by "discipline her" or “scourge her” because the translator is obviously too ashamed to use the word beating.

One of the four schools of Islam, namely the Shafi'i school, states without shame that the only duty of a woman is to sexually satisfy her husband. Through her dowry he gets a one-off payment. This reminds me of the oldest profession in the world. Scholars of the Shafi'i school do not make this up. They simply learn this from the Quran:

Quran 4:24. “...Then as to those whom you profit by, give them their dowries as appointed...”

Quran 4:20. “And if you wish to have (one) wife in place of another and you have given one of them a heap of gold, then take not from it anything; would you take it by slandering (her) and (doing her) manifest wrong?

Quran 4:21. “And how can you take it when one of you has already gone in to the other and they have made with you a firm covenant?

This also has been confirmed by authentic traditions of Muhammad, which clearly state that the dowry is only linked to sexual intercourse with the husband. If he divorces her after having sexual intercourse even only once, he loses this money. (Muslim, Book 9, number 3557.)

3. The killing of apostates

Most Muslims and non-Muslims think this is an anomaly. They are wrong. This practice is not only in the collective memory of the population in Muslim countries, but all shariah handbooks tell the same story. Everyone who has studied Islam seriously knows that Shariah prescribes the death penalty for apostates. This is based on the authentic traditions of Muhammad who said:

"If somebody (a Muslim) discards his religion, kill him." (Bukhari, Book 52, Number 260)

and

"The blood of a Muslim who confesses that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that I am His Apostle, cannot be shed except in three cases: In Qisas for murder, a married person who commits illegal sexual intercourse and the one who reverts from Islam (apostate) and leaves the Muslims." (Bukhari, Book 83 Number 17)

In most Islamic countries the death penalty for apostasy is not applied because this is an inhumane law. In these countries however apostates are harassed administratively by all possible means or are punished in one way or another. In the so-called moderate Muslim country Malaysia they have sent a woman to a psychiatric institution and her child has been taken away from her because she had turned away from Islam and became a Hindu. Fortunately she lives in "moderate" Malaysia. If she were living in Saudi-Arabia, she would be beheaded.

4. Polygamy as legalized adultery.

Contrary to what some Muslim(a)s claim, polygamy is not an exceptional situation and the first wife does not need to give permission. The man has the unconditional right to four wives if he gives them a dowry according to their status and if he can provide for them. Women who don’t grant this right to their husbands are ungrateful and therefore they will go to hell. This is described in the tradition of Muhammad narrated by Muslim in Book 1, Number 142.

5. The call of the Quran and Muhammad for eternal war until Islam is the dominant system everywhere (see above)

6. The inhumane punishments for theft and adultery with the idea in mind (Tradition by Muslim in Book 1, Number 171) that Allah can forgive anything except worshipping other gods besides Him. If one says that Jesus is the Son of God one goes to hell, but when one commits theft or adultery and only believes in Allah one can go to heaven.

7. The double personality of Muhammad, who on one hand was completely reliable, beloved, patient, and even timid and who on the other hand encouraged killing, torture, robbing and rape.

8. The inconsistence of the Quran.

It is hard to believe that this is the work of a Supreme Being. One has to be unbelievably brainwashed to think this is sublime. In Pakistan however, you will be beheaded if you throw the Quran in a waste-bin.

Many a Muslim will claim that what I have written has nothing to do with Islam and that all of it are culture-related issues. This is completely false. The situation of the Muslim has nothing to do with a so called backward culture in Islamic countries but has everything to do with true Islam itself.

In my opinion Islam is in violation with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights on many issues and poses a danger to society. Reformation of Islam is impossible since everything is described in detail in the Quran and the Hadith/traditions of Muhammad. The Quran and the Hadith are complementary and provide explanations for one another. The so-called reformers or moderate Muslims pretend that a large part of the Quran does not exist. Or they try to distort the truth because it so ugly.

The extremists (Wahabi, Salafists, ... ) or so-called “radicalized youth” just go for the whole story. If in the West Islam is considered as an “approved” religion, one cannot blame these people that they use their right to effectively follow the Quran and the Hadith.

One forgets that Islam is not only a religion but also a culture, a social system, a legislation, a political system, a military system, ....and that these cannot easily be separated.

An example: one would expect that prayer belongs to the religious domain. During prayer muslims read a chapter of the Quran. When they choose chapter 9 and recite that polytheists should be killed (9:5) and that Christians and Jews have to be fought until they submit (9:29) and that you may not spend time with your ‘unbelieving’ family members (9:23), one enters in the military, social and political domain. And then muslims are surprised that they have to explain to those Polytheists, Jews, Christians or atheist relatives that these verses are no longer valid and were meant only for specific circumstances, wherease Islamic scholars claim the exact opposite.

When I put everything in perspective I cannot understand how anyone who has studied Islam thoroughly on the basis of the Islamic sources, still can remain a Muslim. I am no longer a Muslim. i hope every Muslim will study Islam thoroughly and follow suit.

Finally I wish peace to all my Muslim and non-Muslim brothers and sisters!

Islam as a "religion of peace" is false advertising, plain and simple. Sadly, over the centuries, those in positions of power have often used religion, particularly Christianity, to humiliate and dominate others. However, there is no Biblical support for doing so. However, in Islam, violence is mandated in the Koran with Muhammad being the chief example.

I have come accross many muslim women out of ignorance claim that it is islam which has given dignity to women. Secularist modern society have denigrated women to display their bodies ( half-clad/semi-nude) to sell everything from cars,toiletry,perfumes, draperies to even men's shaving cream! These ignorant women have no idea of the status of women in countries like Saudi Arabia,Iran,Afghanistan,Yemen,etc. where women are nothing more than bonded slaves of men , more aptly sex-slaves. Many non-muslim women are fooled by the lies of conmen like Zakir Naik or Israar Ahmed.They repent after they convert and revert back to their original creed - mind you, this is possible in India. Certainly not possible even in the so-called moderate countries like Malaysia or Indonesia.Let's hope articles like the one above can open the eyes of muslims who want to be "De-zombied".

" A correction to this statement: The lady in question, M. Revathi, was never a Muslim. Her parents converted when she was a child but she was raised by her Hindu grandmother. The Malaysian authorities consider her a Muslim because of her parents' religious status.

Good job, man! Welcome back to humanity and freedom. A Muslim carrying a banner said, "Freedom go to hell." To learn more about Islam you can go to www.chick.com/information/religions/islam. They also offer 3 good books about Islam. One is called, "Anatomy of the Qur'an."-which documents the contradictions in the quran. Also, "Who is this Allah?"-which, shows how "Allah" is NOT the true god but an imposter!

This article goes to show the simple truth that if one was to truly know Islam, he would be left with few options. If he was muslim and had a conscience, he would have to become an apostate. If he was not a Muslim, he would have to dedicate himself to the descruction of Islam. To stay a muslim would be to continue to contribute to evil, to tolerate it would be to deserve whatever you get as a non-muslim is an Islamic state, your eventual demise. The issue really is black and white, the choice may not be easy but it is clear.

Hey Mohamed Atta, Mohammend was not a true prophet. He made up a false religion of peace just for his self glory. He was rapist, pedophile, wife beater, murderer and liar. He even married a 6 years old girl named Aisha when he was 54. He raped her and destroyed her reproductive organs. She was 18 and childless when he died. She never had children when she died in yher 60's. I read stories about islamization of Europe in http://www.apostatesofislam.com The truth is the converts to Islam in Europe are mostly European women. But islamization of Europe will not last due to global warming that will cause north pole ocean of icebergs to melt and overflood northern Europe resulting in mssive loss of land mass. In America, thousands of people who convert to Islam every week are mostly women and men from different minority groups including American Mexicans. But there is one problem with Islam: if you convert to Islam, are you willing to subject your daughters to a Muslim custom called female genital mutilation (or fgm for short)? There are 3 types of FGM. FGM level one is very common in Saudi Arabia, Palestine and some other neighboring countries. It means only the removal of clitoris tip. FGM level 2 and 3 are very common in Yemen and safara Africa. It means excessive removal of labia and libia lips. In Islam, women are not allowed to choose the husband of their choice. Thousands of child brides are either under age 10 or barely over 10. This is widespread in Kabul, Iraq. They are mostly married off to old men over age 50,60, and 70. Ewww! This is so gross! In the Book of Koran, slavery is 100% legal whether it is sex or labor. Even it says that fathers have the right to kill their sons or daughters if they are disobedient. In the Bible, the book of Revelation warned the readers about the false religion of peace, anti-Christ rising out of the Middle East and a lot of beheadings for Christians who remain steadfastly faithful to Jesus Christ in the last days. It also bears the good news: it speaks of God's promise to defend Israel against enemies from Russia, China and Islam. It is foretold that the enemie will march into Israel only to die in friendly fires in the mountains. 200 miles of blood shed is also mentioned. 1,500 of the Muslim / Islam reign of terror will end in that very last war. So we are very confident that the false religion of peace (Islam) will become dust and we will live in peace with respect for all humanity just like Native American Indians. How exciting is that! The new world is coming. It's like rebirth of Native American Indian way of life that the world will adopt to restore harmony in sacred life of circle like a hoop. In the name of humanity, we will endure to the end. For more info, look in http://www.apostatesofislam.com May you walk in beauty!

"The Religion of Peace," supposedly Islam, is the biggest lie in the world. It is also the cruelest lie in the world. It's a wonder that Islam masquerated as a religion for so long, about 1,400 years. Muhammad brought more misery into the world than Adolph Hitler, Mao Ze Tung, and Joseph Stalin combined. Muhammad has to be the worst scum ever created. Muhammad was a paedophile, child molester, camel piss drinker, rapist, liar, slave owner, false prophet, wife beater, whore monger, murderer and a lunatic, a genuine idiot. Muhammad said that the earth is flat. And still people admire him. Sick, sick, sick.

Why is it that supposedly being the world's fastest growing religion makes it a religion of truth? Jesus, whom Muslims officially believe was a prophet of God, said that "the road to salvation is cramped and narrow, and few are the ones finding it". So if Muslims believe in Jesus, as they claim to, then the fast growth that Muslims put such emphasis on is really of no importance at all. Sorry all you Muslims but you can't have it both ways.

Here is a bad news for Islam: ROME – An Egyptian-born writer who renounced Islam and was baptized by Pope Benedict XVI said Sunday that he has formed a political party that would enter candidates in next year's EU elections.In March, Allam angered some in the Muslim world with a high-profile conversion during an Easter vigil service led by the pope in St. Peter's Basilica. He said in leading daily Corriere della Sera, where he has worked as deputy editor, that the "root of evil is inherent in an Islam that is physiologically violent and historically conflictual."

Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. John 16:2 in fact, a time is coming when anyone who kills you will think he is offering a service to God. They will do such things because they have not known the Father or me. 2 Pet 2:2 Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. (Angel meets Muhammad to bring Islam:) Galatian 1:8: But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned. Deu 13:5 That prophet or dreamer must be put to death, because he preached rebellion against the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt and redeemed you from the land of slavery; he has tried to turn you from the way the LORD your God commanded you to follow. You must purge the evil from among you

convert to reason and science, my brother, not only islam, almost all religion, especially abrahamic ones claim that killing hectics/infidels, even heretics is not a sin, it's even justified, holy wars begin because pope Urban II orders all christians to join a war against turks. there almost no 'religion of peace' on earth historically.

The so-called “members of other faiths” alluded to by Muslims are nearly always just nominal members who have no active involvement. They are neither inspired by, nor do they credit religion as Muslim terrorists do, and this is what makes it a very different matter. Islam is associated with Islamic terrorism because that is the association that the terrorists themselves choose to make. Muslims who compare crime committed by people who happen to be nominal members of other religions to religious terror committed explicitly in the name of Islam are comparing apples to oranges. By contrast, Islamic terrorists staged nearly ten thousand deadly attacks in just the six years following September 11th, 2001. If one goes back to 1971, when Muslim armies in Bangladesh began the mass slaughter of Hindus, through the years of Jihad in the Sudan, Kashmir and Algeria, and the present-day Sunni-Shia violence in Iraq, the number of innocents killed in the name of Islam probably exceeds five million over this same period. In the last six years, there have been perhaps a dozen or so religiously-inspired killings by people of all other faiths combined. No other religion produces the killing sprees that Islam does nearly every day of the year. Neither do they have verses in their holy texts that arguably support it. Nor do they have large groups across the globe dedicated to the mass murder of people who worship a different god. Muslims may like to pretend that other religions are just as subject to "misinterpretation" as is their “perfect” one, but the reality speaks of something far worse. The first Crusade began in 1095… 460 years after the first Christian city was overrun by Muslim armies, 457 years after Jerusalem was conquered by Muslim armies, 453 years after Egypt was taken by Muslim armies, 443 after Muslims first plundered Italy, 427 years after Muslim armies first laid siege to the Christian capital of Constantinople, 380 years after Spain was conquered by Muslim armies, 363 years after France was first attacked by Muslim armies, 249 years after Rome itself was sacked by a Muslim army, and only after centuries of church burnings, killings, enslavement and forced conversions of Christians. By the time the Crusades finally began, Muslim armies had conquered two-thirds of the Christian world. Europe had been harassed by Muslims since the first few years following Muhammad’s death. As early as 652, Muhammad’s followers launched raids on the island of Sicily, waging a full-scale occupation 200 years later that lasted almost a century and was punctuated by massacres, such as that at the town of Castrogiovanni, in which 8,000 Christians were put to death. In 1084, ten years before the first crusade, Muslims staged another devastating Sicilian raid, burning churches in Reggio, enslaving monks and raping an abbey of nuns before carrying them into captivity. The Crusades were provoked by the harassment of Christian pilgrims from Europe to the Holy Land, in which many were kidnapped, molested, forcibly converted to Islam or even killed. (Compare this to Islam’s justification for slaughter on the basis of Muslims being denied access to the Meccan pilgrimage in Muhammad’s time). The Crusaders only invaded lands that were Christian. They never attacked Saudi Arabia or sacked Mecca as the Muslims had done (and continued doing) to Italy and Constantinople. The period of Crusader “occupation” (of its own former land) was stretched over less than two centuries. The Muslim occupation is in its 1,374th year.

to jj, what was lacking in your strict religious (catholic) and loving upbringing that when faced with the decision of marriage, you decided to change course without looking into your "new faith". why did u cheat your fiance into thinking you were accepting Islam when you were not, as you did not understand the faith, as you admitted. is this breach of trust on your part a reflection of your weak upbringing, yes. does it say how disheartened you might have been with Christianity, that you did cared where your religious affiliations led you to, no matter how strange that religion be to you? no doubt. the ingrained contradiction of Catholicism leaves pretty much every one with a numb mind. there is god, but there are three gods, or three forms of god, they are one, but no they are different. and forget them anyways now, because you have the pope. see just too confusing, hardly puzzling though given the odd marriage of Ibrahimic monotheism to illogical, yet well liked polytheism of the Rome. So after going through all the trauma you h=must have endured, if you are truthful regarding the catholic upbringing, you decided that thinking makes no difference what so ever, every faith must be the same. accustomed to living in people who let the cultural attitudes, and social sickness, (cancerous and viral to zombie fried chicken) grow, and then lets wait for the pope to open up the arms of Christianity for that, following the steps of the its ancient predecessor who innovated the the concept of trinity, Christmas, and God knows what else. i am waiting for when the church says a few words on how the pedophilia, recognized as a crime by the people of this age, and by the church itself is somehow sacred and blissful for the lucky kids who fell prey to it. i know i know Muhammad saw married a 9 year old, who BTW was gona get married anyways at that age, (you see that was the custom then, people married off young girls or killed them, they didnot lout other of their wealth so food was a sacricity in arabia, and girls considered a burden, much like they were else where as well, you know like giving the hand of a princess to a foreign prince, or an army general, basically trading their daughters to build alliances, and if you don't know of it read the history of the christian world around 500AD. oh, on a side note Aisha ra loved her husband, more than one of the 'christians' can wish to be loved by his wife, especially now a day! but getting back to your story, something in there seems missing, it seems like a fish flying to live on a mountain peak covered with ice, and actually does so.... something seems fishy... is it by any chance the fact that you ever converted to islam, i mean you could have claimed to the intent intention to harm the faith! again. its a may be, you know your intention the best among us, but as i said something is not right...

to Mohammad Atta: there is no point in telling who will over come the other. To many aiming arrows at Islam and Prophet Mohammad saw and ALLAH swt (the same God Ibrahim, Issac, Jacob, Moses, and Jesus worshipped): there is a reason your are called non-muslims, you do not believe in the teachings of Islam. How far down you wanna throw yourself in the hole of indecency is up to you. as much as i want you to accept islam, i can't do it, for one thing Islam says out loud, that appearently always not strike the ears of its harsh 'critics', or haters is the declaration that there is no compusion/ forcing in the matter of religion. you choose what you want. and the talk of killing that comes, is when the non-muslims attack muslims, and try to kill them, then the muslims have the right to defend themselves, and kill those who cause mischief. quite a universal principle indeed. even the modern world we are a part of failed to come up with any thing better! (see the news on Israelis shooting 'suspect terrorists', or for that matter the war strategy in iraq and afghanistan, or rather an expected course of action taken by the law enforcement agencies, while say encountering a gang intent at harming them! see when you get out of the santa clause ride realities of life come into play, and then what you degrade as barbarian becomes realistic, i know i know its hard to take, but this is the trith. and yet if you have stomach to talk about the barbarianism of islam look at one of many websites speaking for the human rights if the many muslims detained in guatanamo, and read what the loving, peacful, ready-to-turn-the-other-cheek-when-one-is-slapped christians are doing. these words for those who comprehend nothing but talk of this manner, but those out there who think, actually THINK about things, who is a christian hurting by insulting islam, who is a muslim hurting by insulting christianity, and who is jew hurting by insulting either islam or christianity... the people who are following a faith. who is growing stronger. those who don't want people to follow a faith, any faith! take this from me, today the word is against islam, yesterday (in hitler's germany) it was against jews, and some may argue long ago in the 1st century AD or so it was against Christianity. we are jews, christian, and muslims, because we all are not just one of them, so yes we will think different. heck we think different, and hold different believes even among the individual faith. here are some fools thinking every one will be thinking the same, sure that will happen after Jesus (pbuh) comes back, till then.... no agreements, only the differences seem to be arising. if we can only keep it decent and peaceful, may be we will succeed against our enemy! those who know religion know the enemy, those who know him not, follow the trend of religion not the religion itself!

Allah is not the same God of Abraham. Islam had successfully propagated this lie and all Muslims blindly believed it. Allah was the pagan moon deity of pre-Islamic Mecca. The black stone Kaaba was one of the three stones, the other the red stone and the white stone, revered by pre-islamic pagans of Mecca. The Koran deliberately copied the Biblical stories and terribly distorted it for its own agenda. It provided a perfect cover so that Islam will appear divine and authentic. Nowhere in your Koran is the affirmation of the Ten Commandments as recorded in the Old Testament of the Bible. Nowhere in your Koran is the command to love your neighbor, to love your enemies as preached by Jesus.

What had the innocents done in Mumbai to be brutally and senselessly murdered by those rampaging Islamist cowards who had trained hard in close combat for six months for this single grossly evil deed? The answer to these mind boggling question can be found in the pages of your Koran. You Muslims you better do your own soul searching.

You are absolutely correct about the Koran lacking any admonition to love your enemies. Of course, Muslims will say "Hey, what about wars among self-professed Christians?", but they are missing the point. People, in fact WHOLE NATIONS claiming to be "Christian", have ignored Jesus' counsel to love one's enemies. But it is there in the Bible for all to see. The Koran however, has no such teaching. The Koran is a historical record of Muhammad as an absolute example to follow for hating your enemies and using that hatred to kill anyone who disagrees.

Mohamad Atta (relly coll name for a computer nerd) Muslims allways braghing screaming over Islam is the fastest growing religion. Now to facts Islam is noth the fastes growing religion,Islam has high birte rats and are spread to new countries. The fastest growing religion is christianity. There is today sone arround 350 milion christians in africa that in 1900 besides local religions was totaly dominated by Islam. The fact is that even arbian ann islamic tv chanels on prime time has debate the problem whit the fact arround 6 miljons muslims a year converts to christianity in africa. Ahmad al katani: " Islam has been in a country like America in 125 years, and do you know how many muslims there is now? 7 miljons and yet we lose 6 miljon to chritianity every year. In china there is today arround 50-60 miljons chritians and it grove so fast that china sone will be the largest christian country on earth if the trend not ends. And then the talk abbout muslims groving in europe, yes it is couse of large imigration and high birth rates, and some women whitout know how that convers when marrige an muslim man. The numbers that converts of other reasons are smal and can easy been explained by the fact that islam is the trendy shit now, its the same people that in 70-80-90 turned to chritans sects ore hare chrisna ore what ever. Dont forget the fact that many muslims converts to christianity ore becomse ateist after arived in Europe. The muslim is groving so fast argument is simply an argument to scare people of tho dont argue whit islam couse they are so powerful and big and soon your negibour will converte so you beter do to, so the muslims overlords maybye at least treat you whit some respect. 1,5 biljon Muslims against 5 biljons of rest of the world yhes MA good luck whit that war of conquest. It will takes a few yers and som blody terror attacks before that the daydream mainstream politics of Europe wake up and has been replaced whit the Winston C of our generation. Islam is has now future couse the religon leads to slavery and missery and isnt directly atract the big brains of the world.

While you are to be applauded for seeing Catholicism for its falsehoods, and Islam for even moreso for its hypocritical stupidity, you have merely substituted one form of idiocy for another. Just read the Bible, and no other book, in your search for truth.

u have made an amazing study on islam for people who convert to islam without even reading the quran deep. i just feel sorry for europeans and all christians or non christians who convert to islam blindly, a day will come when europe will be dominated by muslims and soon they will apply the islamic laws and freedom of speach will vanish until u reach a point ( if ur not a muslim u must shut up and listen to what muslims believe or think). as a christian lebanese living in the middle east i hold strongly on my christian roots,we faced muslims since the islamic invasion during mohamads holy wars on nonmuslims and we still carry the cross of jesus and feeling his pain. u have used a good weapon my friend which is knoledge so i hope and wish for every person who wants to convert to islam ,is to at least read deeply and to make sure that the translation is correct. the church is playing a policy of ignoring the islamic invasion on christiany may be they r affraid from the clash of civilizations, but do u europeans think its fair for muslims in europe to preach and build mosqes while christians in the east cant even mention jesus name ! muslims r taking advantage of european freedom to distroy the freedom it self. although christians cant preach in the east (muslim world),but a new tv channel called alhayat (christian channel explaining quran versus and alahadeeth is making a great job in converting muslims coz simply muslims dont know whats in their own book,they only learn from their families some islamic ideas and habits (the location of this channel is unkown coz of islamic threats). wake up westerns u got a great civilization its worth saving it,i dont ask you to hate muslims i only ask you to read their religion to know whats their ideology and god bless all.

this website is a load of rubbish. it has taken verses of the Qur'an completely out of context. Islam is a natural religion to mankind. you'll find that out on when your in your grave when it will be too late to repent. so many things are predicted in the Qur'an that was revealed 1429 years ago and scientists have only discovered it now.

Islam and science are totally at odds. Or are you going to tell us that humankind really was created from "a clot"? A clot of what? Blood? What does "clot" mean? The Bible is much closer to the truth when it said that man was created out of the dust of the ground. All the elements in the human body are also found in plain old dirt. The Bible said that long before the Koran came up with the "clot" explanation.
