Christians Stuck in an Islamic Hell

As I surf the net I see many Christians standing up for the ideology of Islam. Most of them have not done any research on Islam. They have been told by Muslims, that Islam is a religion of peace. Well if that were true then why are Christians and Jews being persecuted across the Islamic world? Christians need to see Islam for what it is, a dominating ideology that if not stopped will kill and torture millions of more Christians, then eventually destroy the religion of Christianity. Christians need to end their silence and think of the fate of their families future generations. Especially since the Islamic population in our countries continues to grow. The persecution of Christianity has already started in the U.K.  In just a two day period let us look at what has happened to Christians stuck under Islamic rule.

Somalia 7/28/08 A Christian convert was shot to death with a AK-47 by two Muslim men. The reason....all because he would not face Mecca when praying. When his wife heard the news of her husbands murder she went into premature labour and gave birth to a stillborn baby.(1) The Somali constitution discourages the promotion and propagation of any religion other than Islam.

Jakarta Indonesia 7/28/08 A Protestant school in Jakarta was stormed by a mob of Muslims injuring 265 students. Many with head injuries and others burnt by Molotov cocktails.(2)

Iran 7/29/08 16 Christian converts were arrested and some beaten. The crime was converting to Christianity.(3) Funny how Muslims always tell us that Islam is a religion of tolerance, but the actions of Muslims always show the opposite. A bill has gone to Parliament there calling for the death penalty of anyone who leaves Islam. Such freedom.....

Good point.

This is such an unpopular topic and will no doubt bring an enormous amount of insult to you. However, the fact still remains: orthodox islam promotes violence.

To downplay this fact, people will bring up the Crusades. The crusades were not a Christian movement, but a political one. They were not acting out orders from the Bible, but orders from the rulers of the time. You will not find the same statements encouraging violence in the Bible that you will in the Koran. 

This doesn't mean that all Muslims are violent, only that their religeon is, generally, a violent one.

Thank you. Silence is why the problem is now creeping into our backyards. The differences of the Islamic way of life and ours, and Islam itself is debate we need to have.

 

For more.

May God guide you.  As always people continue to make up stoireies about Islam and Muslims.  As for Christians in the Muslim world they have always lived together in peace.  By the grace of God it is part of outr faith to be kind to non-Muslims especially those described in the Quran a the people of the book (Jews and Christians).  Our Phophet said he who hurts a non-Muslim has hurt me and I will be his adversary on the day of judgement.  So if any Muslim violates this he violates Islam. I am sure that the Christians who killed 70, 000 Muslims and Jews in one day during the Crusades, or the massacre of Jews and Muslims during the Inquisitions or the slaughter of the natives of this country or the uprooting of millions of Africans during the slave trade or the annilation of the natives of Australia.  Must I continue.  What has been done in the name of Christianity has no paralel in history.  Get your stories straight.  The taking of life should not be done by anyone, however if you look at history you may see a few Muslims going to extreme but you have never seen what you have domne in the name of other faiths.  as a Muslim who converted to Islam I see the same lies and propaganda that brought about during the Crusades being waged today.  May God help us all

Anyone can do a Google on the persecution of Christians across the Islamic world and the hate that the Koran preaches.

 

Why didn't you mention the rest of the verse from the Koran? Where is says that Muslims can others for spreading "mischief in the land" and "mischeif" can be anything that Muslims want it to be.

"Because of that We ordained for the Children of Israel that if anyone killed a person not in retaliation of murder, or (and) to spread mischief in the land - it would be as if he killed all mankind, and if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of all mankind. And indeed, there came to them Our Messengers with clear proofs, evidences, and signs, even then after that many of them continued to exceed the limits (e.g. by doing oppression unjustly and exceeding beyond the limits set by Allah by committing the major sins) in the land." (Al-Ma'idah 5:32)

But if I need to kill someone, I can easily define "mischief in the land". This would be no problem for me ...or you. To continue the point, let's add some "jihad" armament to the fray.

"Jihad (holy fighting in Allah's cause) is ordained for you" (Surat Al-Baqarah 2:216).

"O ye who believe (Muslims) take not the Jews or the Christians for your friends and protectors. They are but friends and protectors to each other. And he among you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them (Surat Al-Maidah 5:51).

"Kill the Mushrikun (polytheists, Christian and non-Muslims), wherever you find them, and capture them and besiege them, and lie in wait for them in each and every ambush. But, if they repent and perform As-salat (public prayer with Muslims) and give Zakat (Islamic alms), then leave their way free. Allah is oft-forgiving, most merciful" (Sarat At-Taubah 9:5).

May God guide you.  It seems that you have a lot of hatred in you.  It seems that you have been duoed by the media and the propaganda in our country.  Maybe you should go to these countries and see how the people live.  I have been there have you?  Most of the hatred comes from those like you who go to extremes when dealing with others.  There is good and bad amongst all of us.  But the fact remains if a Muslim or Christian or anyone else does something outside of their faith then that action can not be associated with their faith.  Unfortunately as an Afican American and a Muslim I am feeling the effects once again of the rascist bogotrey that still exists in our country.  Even a man like Obama can't escape it even though he has worked so hard to become a model American.  He still has to face the bigotry of many in our country.  My advice to you because I knoew that you know little or nothing about Islam but you are just parroting the same old lies that have existed for centuries.  Maybe if you read a book about Islam from reliable sources I am sure you would understand as many of the thousands of former Christians do so every day.  Thank God that some people have the intelligence to learn on their own and not be persuaded by others.  Peace

You continue to talk about yesterday but where are the Muslims invading other peoples lands.  Show me.  While you talk a lot about freedom the peoples around the world have none because our government suppport the most ruthless dictators in the world.  Maybe if you take some time to read yo0u may learn what is happening in the world.  Secondly please don't take verses from our holy book and try to interpret them.  Thes verses are only in the case of all out war and wre revealed after 15 years of Muslims being persecuted and killed.  These verses are only on the battle fielsd against those who are killing you.  It has nothing to do with everyday life and times of peace. Maybe if I wanted to take the verses from the Bible that speak about slaughtering every man, women and child or Jesus (Peace be upon him saying i have not come with peace i have come with the sword.  Look the world is in chaos.  It is time for us as human beings to try to live peacefully with one another.  Lets not be fooled by those who don't care about us but only care abouit their own selves.  Peace

NO, the articles are recent and Muslims are invading lands. Just ask the people of the UK who are sick of Muslim immigration.

I will take any verses out of the the Koran that I want, you will not tell me what to do. They were interpreted by Yusaf Ali and M. Pickthall so save the it is not interpreted correctly excuse. Maybe if Muslims who stop prosecuting non-Muslims and preaching hate, there would be peace. Pointing out the problems that Islam brings to the world is not hate, so get some new excuses. Yours are tired and old and you are a typical Islamic parrot. Like I said when you have something other then your opinion let me know.

 

I guess these leading Muslims did not interpret the Koran correctly either. LOL!!

 

Depicting Jews – and sometimes also Zionists – as "the descendants of apes and pigs" is extremely widespread today in public discourse in the Arab and Islamic worlds.

For example, in a weekly sermon in April 2002, Al-Azhar Sheikh Muhammad Sayyid Tantawi, the highest-ranking cleric in the Sunni Muslim world, called the Jews "the enemies of Allah, descendants of apes and pigs."

In one of his sermons, Saudi sheikh Abd Al-Rahman Al-Sudayyis, imam and preacher at the Al-Haraam mosque – the most important mosque in Mecca – beseeched Allah to annihilate the Jews. He also urged the Arabs to give up peace initiatives with them because they are "the scum of the human race, the rats of the world, the violators of pacts and agreements, the murderers of the prophets, and the offspring of apes and pigs."

 

 

Ayatollah Khomeini

Khomeini accordingly delivered notorious rebuke to the Islam-is-a-religion-of-peace crowd: “Those who know nothing of Islam pretend that Islam counsels against war. Those [who say this] are witless. Islam says: Kill all the unbelievers just as they would kill you all! Does this mean that Muslims should sit back until they are devoured by [the unbelievers]? Islam says: Kill them, put them to the sword and scatter [their armies].... Islam says: Whatever good there is exists thanks to the sword and in the shadow of the sword! People cannot be made obedient except with the sword! The sword is the key to Paradise, which can be opened only for the Holy Warriors! There are hundreds of other [Qur’anic] psalms and Hadiths [sayings of the Prophet] urging Muslims to value war and to fight. Does all this mean that Islam is a religion that prevents men from waging war? I spit upon those foolish souls who make such a claim.”

 

 I see very clearly by the videos how the Coptics are treated in Egypt.

I am only quoting the Koran and leading Muslims. So either you do not know Islam, or you are lying as your religion encourages you to.

Do you want to talk about how it is illegal to have a Bible in Saudi Arabia or how Iran just approved the death penalty for those that leave Islam? Such freedom....

Or the recent attacks in India, Thailand and China by Muslims? All for the same reason. They want their own Islamic state within non-Muslim countries.

Muslim Leaders to Non-Muslims: Do Not Question Islam

As we surf across net it is very clear to see that the criticism of Islam is on the rise. This is obviously because the non-Islamic world has become more aware of the threat that Islam brings to our way of life, as the Islamic way of life and our way do not mix. When there is a problem people have every right to speak up and try and deal with that problem, but according to Islamic leaders we do not have that right. More and more high ranking Muslims are coming out and basically telling us to shut up and not to question Islam. Here are some examples of this type of behaviour.

Non-Muslims in Malaysia have been warned by state rulers not to question the supremacy of Islam or the special privileges given to the Malay Muslim majority there. The Muslim rulers have said that questioning of Islam and the superior standing of Islam "can lead to disunity and racial strife that can undermine the peace and harmony". In other words just shut up, convert or live like a dhimmi.

This week a fatwa issued by a committee from the highest authority in Sunni Islam, Egypt's Al-Azhar University in Cairo has stated that Muslims have the right under Islam to hack into the websites of non-Muslims that are fighting back in the information war.

Approximately two months ago the Human Rights Council at the United Nations had banned any criticism regarding Sharia Law and human rights in the Islamic world. Muslims are obviously very worried that the ugly truth about Islam is getting out to more and more people, which means that we are doing a good job. Keep up the good work everyone!

I think you started this topic for points but anyway, I do not think you have enough knowledge to write this very small, very general piece of news about violence.

I am not going to talk about conflicts and mass murders between Catholics and Protestants, which was, from a certain point of view, justified.

Please do not open topics like this when you do not know what does the word is islam mean in the first place, and please please, do not mix between tribal rules and islamic rules.

I will post what I want, not what you want me to. Islam does not mean peace, it means submission to God.

I do not care about the points here, and I have posted facts and all you have is your opinion. So lets not talk about who has knowledge and who does not.

What I have spoken about are Islamic rules. Non-Muslims are treated as second class citizens under Islam. It is called a dhimmi. So please educate yourself on Islam before you come here and bash me.

I have so many things to say but I can't express them all.  First of all the word Dhimmie means the covenated people living in Islamic lands.  These people were always given the right to their own autonomy.  In a time where there was no secularism and people followed God the people of the book and others were given all the religious freedom unlike what we have seen in the holy land today and in the past.  Do not get confused about what is Islam and what these current rulers are doing.  It is funny that time and time again a person continues to interpret my religion who has no understanding of Islam.  The verses from the Quran are translated and these verses were revealed due to circumstances that existed at the time.  You can not take a verse from the Quran and interpret it and then not even as you ave done forget the verses that preceed and follow it.  Maybe you should read books by unbiased scholrs who show th true history of Islam.   As an African American who has been lied to about history I understand why you don't understand.  Thank God that he has given me the ways and means to see what is true and what is false.  Peace

Dhimmi means second class citizen with less rights then Muslims, they also had to pay a higher tax then Muslims. Anyone reading can do a Google search. Dhimmi status was not good.

The translations are very clear and they are from unbiased sources. Pickthall and Ali, so save the excuses.

 

Islam the big Misunderstanding

We constantly hear from Muslims that the Koran is being misinterpreted, when asked why so many Muslims are using the Koran to justify their actions. Well for arguments sake lets just look at modern history, the Barbary Coast Wars.

During the year 1786 Thomas Jefferson and John Adams went to London to speak with Tripoli’s Ambassador Sidi Haji Abdrahaman. Jefferson and Adams asked the Ambassador how can they make war on nations that have done nothing to them? The Ambassador replied that “It was written in their Koran, that all nations which had not acknowledged the Prophet were sinners, whom it was the right and duty of the faithful to plunder and enslave; and that every Muslim who was slain in this warfare was sure to go to paradise. He said, also, that the man who was the first to board a vessel had one slave over and above his share, and that when they sprang to the deck of an enemy’s ship, every sailor held a dagger in each hand and a third in his mouth; which usually struck such terror into the foe that they cried out for quarter at once”. So even back then Muslims were using the Koran to justify their violent actions. My question is this, if Muslims that are saying the Koran is being misinterpreted are correct, then how come in over 200 years they have not been able to clear up this misunderstanding with in the Islamic world? Or is it just that they know that the Koran is not being  and that they are just being dishonest with us?

 

 

Most Muslims  believe the words of the Koran are for all time, as the words are Gods words and mere man  cannot change them. Why don't you go to Saudi Arabia and tell them that they do not understand Islam, but you do. LOL!! Let me know how you make out.

You still have not proved anything I have said to be wrong.

Volume 4, Book 52, Number 220:
Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allah's Apostle said, "I have been sent with the shortest expressions bearing the widest meanings, and I have been made victorious with terror (cast in the hearts of the enemy), and while I was sleeping, the keys of the treasures of the world were brought to me and put in my hand." Abu Huraira added: Allah's Apostle has left the world and now you, people, are bringing out those
treasures.


Book 019, Number 4294:
If they refuse to accept Islam, demand from them the jizya. If they agree to pay, accept it from them and hold off your hands. If they refuse to pay the tax, seek Allah's help and fight them.

There you are trying to quote the Quran again.  As I said Dhimmie does not mean second class citizen.  It means covenated people.  Yususf Ali and Pickthall do not interpret the word Dhimmie because it is  not found in the quran.  this is from the sayings of the prophet. And neither of them are scholars but only linguist.  The jizya is a tax and just as Muslims pay taxes so do all otheres living in an Islamic countryIf you join the Muslim army or other things within the government you  are exempt from this tax.

ChristopherL

You might want to try and actually read. lol!! They were both Islamic scholars.

Dimam were treated as second class citizens. 


Jizya is a higher tax paid by non-Muslims and zakat is the lower tax paid by Muslims.

A dhimmi ([ðimi]; Arabic: ذمي‎, collectively: أهل الذمة, ahl al-dhimma, the people of the dhimma or pact of protection, Ottoman Turkish zimmi) is a non-Muslim subject of a state governed in accordance with sharia law. The term connotes an obligation of the state to protect the individual, including the individual's life, property, and freedom of religion and worship, and required loyalty to the empire, and a poll tax known as the jizya.


Dhimmis were allowed to "practice their religion, subject to certain conditions, and to enjoy a measure of communal autonomy" and guaranteed their personal safety and security of property, in return for paying tribute and acknowledging Muslim supremacy. Taxation from the perspective of dhimmis who came under the Muslim rule, was "a concrete continuation of the taxes paid to earlier regimes" (but now lower under the Muslim rule) and from the point of view of the Muslim conqueror was a material proof of the dhimmi's subjection. Various restrictions and legal disabilities were placed on Dhimmis, such as prohibitions against bearing arms or giving testimony in courts in cases involving Muslims. Most of these disabilities had a social and symbolic rather than a tangible and practical character. All of them, however, were designed to eliminate other religions in a deliberate, long-term process.

This guy was an Islamic scholar, who studied Islam since he was 6 years old. But I guess you know better. So when are you heading to the Middle East to tell them that they got it all wrong?

I don't care what Khomeini syas.  The Quran says that there is no coercion in religion.  Christains always talk peace but they have never turned the other cheek.  According to all the unbiased non-Muslim scholars they all will say how Islam protected the rights of non-Muslims at a time when others thought it was there religious duty to wipe out peoples of other faiths.  "Maybe you should read Dc o'Leary book Islam at the crossroads where he says the story of fanatical Muslms sweeping the world by the sword and killing all the infidels is one of the most fantastically obsurd myths that historians have ever repeated."  Ask the people arounfd the world how Islam came to them.  Ask the millions of Cristaians in America and Europe how they feel about Islam  .  I feel that many Christians feel that Islam is overwhelming them.  Yes dipite all your lies Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world.

I know how Europeans feel about Islam, they are against Islam and against Muslim immigration. Go on politcal boards, more and more people are speaking out against Islam. Khomeini is not the only person I quoted. No matter how much you want to lie, Islamic rule was spread by the sword.


Oh so now I need to find non-Muslim scholars, because the Muslim ones do not know their own religion. LOL!! I also never said that Muslims killed "all" the infidels. It is very telling that you have not said one word about the persecution of non-Muslims that is still happening today across the Islamic world.


So when do you leave for the Middle East to tell them that they got it all wrong?


Dhimmi status was not good, I proved that and all you have is your meaningless opinion. Europe has already started to curb Muslim immigration and countries such as Italy and China have really started to crackdown on Islam. I applaud them.

You still have not proven anything except that you are either lying or ignorant. Islam is the fastest growing religion because of birthrate and people are scared to death to leave it. Just because it is growing does not mean that it is good for non-Muslims.

You are the one who is ignorant about Islam.  Besides you are not even a Muslim and probably hate Islam.  So I don't expect you to say anything positive.  As far as the spread of Islam is concerened you have no proof and as I said the unbiased schloars all refute this claim.  The Cristians spread these lies because so many were leaving Christianity then as they are doing now.  Where is the sword for the millions of Muslims who accepted Islam in America like myself. Everyday more and more people are coming to our Masjid to become Muslim. Where's the sword.  The millions accepting Islam in Europe. Where's the sword.  I am not even referring to the birthrate.  I don't even consider that.  Maybe you should go see the movie Kingdom of heaven. It gives a more balanced view.  Don't worry Islam is going to continue to spread because it is the final revelation from God and guarentee you there will be no sword.  May God Guide you.  Peace

I forgot to mention that you said that Christians are being persecuted aound the world.  If Muslims are doing this it is wrong.  Most of thes cases are isolated.  There has never been a case like the systematic murder of Muslims by Christians in the old Yugoslavia by the Serbs.  You always bring these isolated incidents but when you do it you just try to wipe out everyone.  But it is a common tactic for someone to cry wolf to divert people from who is really doing all the killing and persecution.  As for me I know so many Christians and I know they are not like this.  And I know many Muslims and they are not like what you say.  But I know that you hate Islam and you can't see past your hatred.  So you blame Islam for the actions of a few.  As I saw through your lies so are many other people around the world who have accepted Islam.  Yes there are millions and once again no sword.

What are you talking about.  Then why are so many non-Muslims accepting Islam.  I am not even going to waste any more time talking to you.  Once again you bring a few isolated incidences.  Christian minorities live all over the Muslim world and have done so for centuries.  Were they wiped out like so many minorities and majority peoples living under you.  The answer is no.  Those living under aparteid.  The annilation of the peoples of Australia.  At least they have apologized as they just did in Canada for forcibly converting the nativeds of Canada forcefully taking them from their families and converting them.  What about the millions of Africans that you uprooted and destoyed their whole culture and way of life.  This alone has never been done in history but you used the Bible to justify this.  take a look at your own history and I guarentee you won't have anything to say about mine.
