What Muslims Don't Tell You
by Abdullah Al Araby
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[As I read this, I have to wonder how the average muslim (in this country particularly) rationalizes it or is able to disassociate himself/herself from it without repudiating Islam itself entirely and unequivocally. My question is, honestly: how DO they solve this problem?]
Women's Rights
Women are inferior to men
"...and women shall have rights similar to the rights against them...but men have a degree over them..." Surah 2:228
Women are less than equal to men in at least two major areas
First, in inheritance: a woman's share is half that of a man. " To the male a portion equal to that of two females..." Surah 4:11
Second, in court witness: the witness of two women equals the witness of one man. "...and if there are not two men, then a man and two women such as you choose, for witness..." Surah 2:282
Women's mind is deficient
Mohammed said, " The witness of a woman is equal to half of that of a man because of the deficiency of the woman's mind" Hadith vol. 3:826
A husband may punish his wife by beating her or abstaining from sexual relations with her
" women on whose part ye fear disloyalty and ill-conduct, admonish them, refuse to share their beds, beat them. Surah 4:34
Women should veil themselves when they are outside their homes.
" (Women) should cast their outer garments over their persons (when abroad)."Surah 33:59
Sex & Marriage
A man may marry up to four wives at one time
"...Marry women of your choice, two or three or four..." Surah 4:3
A wife is a sex object
" Your wives are as a tilth ( a field to be ploughed ) unto you, so approach your tilth when or how ye will." Surah 2:223
Unnatural sex is allowed
" Narrated Jaber; Jews used to say: If one has a sexual intercourse with his wife from the back , then she will deliver a squint-eyed child ." So this verse was revealed: " Your wives are a tilth unto you; so approach your tilth when or how you will." (whether in a natural or unnatural way). Hadith vol. 6:51
Divorce is allowed
" It may be if he divorced you that Allah will give him in exchange consorts better than you..." Surah 66:5
When a husband has pronounced divorce three times on his wife, she then may not lawfully remarry her husband until she has married and been divorced by another man.
"...so if a husband divorces his wife he cannot after that, remarry her until after she has married another husband, and he has divorced her, in that case there is no blame on either of them if they reunite." Surah 2:230
Human Rights
Islam does not permit freedom of choice regarding religion
"Fight those who believe not in God nor the last day. " Surah 9:29
Islam does not teach the equality of all people
" Ye (Muslims) are the best of peoples, evolved for mankind..." Surah 3:110
Any person who accepts Islam, then later turns away from it will be subject to death.
Mohammed said, "Whoever changes his Islamic religion, kill him." Hadith vol. 9:57
A Muslim may not be killed if he kills an infidel
Mohammed said: "No Muslim should be killed for killing a Kafir (infidel). ".Hadith vol. 9:50
Ethnic cleansing is practiced
Mohammed said to the Jews "The earth belongs to Allah and His apostle, and I want to expel you from this land (the Arabian Peninsula), so, if anyone owns property, he is permitted to sell it. " Hadith vol. 4:392
Why Saudia Arabia does not allow churches to be erected on its soil:
Mohammed's last words were: "Turn the pagans (non-Muslims) out of the Arabian Peninsula." Hadith vol. 5:716
Democracy
No Separation of Church and State
" We have sent down to thee the Book (Quran) in truth, that thou mightest judge between men, as guided by God." Surah 4:105
According to Islam
Stealing is punishable by the amputation of the hands (Surah 5:41)
Adultery is punishable by public flogging (Surah 24:2)
Drinking is punishable by 40-80 lashes (Hadith 8:770)
Resisting Islam, punishable by death, crucifixion or the cutting off of the hands and feet (Surah 5:36)
These rules will be imposed also on non-Muslims in an Islamic State
" If any one desires a religion other than Islam, never will it be accepted of him." Surah 3:85
No opposition party is allowed in an Islamic State
" O ye who believe obey God and the apostle and those charged with authority among you. If you differ in anything among yourselves, refer it to God and His apostle." Surah 4:59
If you don't abide by these laws, you are considered:
An unbeliever (Surah 5:47)
A wrong-doer (Surah 5:48)
A rebel (Surah 5:50)
Violence
Allah orders Muslims in the Quran to terrorize non-Muslims on His behalf
" I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers, smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips of them.It is not ye who slew them; it was Allah." Surah 8:13-17 (See also Surah 8:60 & 9:14)
Mohammed practiced violence to force people into Islam
Mohammed said, "I have been ordered to fight with the people till they say, none has the right to be worshipped but Allah." Hadith vol. 4:196
Mohammed also said, "Know that paradise is under the shades of the swords." Hadith vol 4:73
