Ten Obvious Reasons Why
Islam is NOT a Religion of Peace | |||
#1 | 18,000 deadly terror attacks committed
explicitly in the name of Islam in just the last ten years. (Other
religions combined for perhaps a dozen or so).
| ||
#2 | Muhammad, the prophet of Islam, had people
killed
for insulting him or
for criticizing his religion. This included women. Muslims are told to
emulate
the example of
Muhammad.
| ||
#3 |
Muhammad said in many places that he
has been "ordered by Allah to fight men until they testify that there is no
god but Allah and that Muhammad is his messenger." In the last nine years
of his life, he ordered no less than 65 military campaigns to do exactly
that.
Muhammad inspired his men to war with the basest of
motives, using captured loot, sex
and a
gluttonous
paradise as
incentives. He beheaded
captives,
enslaved
children and
raped
women captured
in battle. Again, Muslims are told to emulate the example of
Muhammad.

After Muhammad died, the people who lived with him
and knew his religion best immediately fell into war with each other.
Fatima, Muhammad's favorite daughter, survived the
early years among the unbelievers at Mecca safe and sound, yet died of stress
from the persecution of fellow Muslims only six months after her father
died. She even miscarried Muhammad's grandchild after having her ribs broken by
the man who became the second caliph.
Fatima's husband Ali, who was the second convert to
Islam and was raised like a son to Muhammad, fought a civil war against an army
raised by Aisha, Muhammad's favorite wife - and one whom he had said was a
"perfect
woman." 10,000
Muslims were killed in a single battle waged less than 25 years after Muhammad's
death.
Three of the first four Muslim rulers (caliphs) were
murdered. All of them were among Muhammad's closest companions. The third
caliph was killed by allies of the son of the first (who was murdered by the
fifth caliph a few years later, then wrapped in the skin of a dead donkey and
burned). The fourth caliph (Ali) was stabbed to death after a bitter dispute
with the fifth. The fifth caliph went on to poison one of Muhammad's two
favorite grandsons. The other grandson was later beheaded by the sixth
caliph.
The infighting and power struggles between Muhammad's
family members, closest companions and their children only intensified with
time. Within 50 short years of Muhammad's death, even the Kaaba, which had
stood for centuries under pagan religion, lay in ruins from internal Muslim
war...
And that's just the fate of those within the
house of Islam!

#5 | Muhammad directed
Muslims to wage war on other religions and bring them under submission
to Islam. Within the first few decades
following his death, his Arabian companions invaded and conquered Christian,
Jewish, Hindu, Buddhist and Zoroastrian lands.
A mere 25 years after Muhammad's death,
Muslim armies had captured land and people within the borders of over 28
modern countries outside of Saudi Arabia. | ||
#6 |
Muslims continued their
Jihad against other religions for 1400 years, checked only by the ability of
non-Muslims to defend themselves. To this day, not a week goes by that Islamic
fundamentalists do not attempt to kill Christians, Jews, Hindus and Buddhists
explicitly in the name of Allah.
None of these other
religions are at war with each other.
| ||
#7 | Islam is the only
religion that has to retain its membership by threatening to kill anyone who
leaves. This is according to the example
set by Muhammad.
| ||
#8 | Islam teaches
that non-Muslims are less than fully human. Muhammad said that Muslims can be
put to death for murder, but that a Muslim could never be put to death for killing a
non-Muslim.
| ||
#9
|
The Qur'an never once speaks of Allah's love for
non-Muslims, but it speaks of Allah's cruelty toward and hatred of non-Muslims
more than
500 times.
