Qur’an:8:39 “So fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief [non-Muslims]) and all submit to the religion of Allah alone (in the whole world).”
Qur’an:9:14 “Fight them and Allah will punish them by your hands, lay them low, and cover them with shame. He will help you over them.”
Qur’an:8:65 “O Prophet, urge the faithful to fight. If there are twenty among you with determination they will vanquish two hundred; if there are a hundred then they will slaughter a thousand unbelievers, for the infidels are a people devoid of understanding.”

(Allah has knowledge) of (Prophet Muhammad’s) saying: “O my Lord! Verily, these are a people who believe not!” So turn away from them (O Muhammad SAW), and say: “Salaam” (peace)! But they will come to know. Comment: the final phrase is telling. Although Mo is told to leave saying “peace”, the verse strongly implies that the non-Muslims “will come to know” that they are wrong. Again this is an early Meccan Sura, but here Mohammed is being slightly more threatening in his attitude.

Could Prophet Muhammad’s wife Aisha have burnt the stoning-of-adulterers verse of the Quran — the only verse Muhammad had kept in his wives’ custody, and was supposedly lost because of its being eaten up by a goat — hoping to relieve the future generation of Muslim women from Islam’s extreme injustice against them?

Against Scholar Hasan Mahmud’s claim that “the Prophet even did not use bad words toward them (apostates)”, Muhammad had, clearly, ordered the killing of every apostate, who came within his power. And he desperately wanted that those apostates were successfully executed.

It is well established fact that Prophet of Islam is well known to this modern world as the most vicious warrior Prophet (involved in hundreds of battles) having an infamous history of myriads of cruelties, killings, plundering, pillages, enslavements, sexual lusts of ludicrous proportion. But so what? Hypocritical Islamists are bent to deny all of the above allegations, and in doing so, they will bring all sorts of ludicrous arguments and Cock and bull story. Very recently, they have started to play ‘hide and seek’ i.e. they want to deny some hadiths and Islamic history when it supports bad thing about Islam; but when comes the good things—they do not hesitate to dig-out any rotten hadiths and historical account to prove goodies of Islam. This is of course an unadulterated double-standard. This article will attempt to investigate just two (Banu Qurayza and Khaybar) out of many historical incidents happened in the process of total extermination of Jewish tribes from the Arabian Peninsula.

In Islam, “Apostasy” (Arabic: irtidad or ridda or Murtadd) means the rejection of Islam in word or deed by a person who has been a Muslim. An apostate in any pure Islamic country is deserved to be killed, period. Muslims, who deny this fact, are stealthily engaged in Taqiyya (lie and deceptions), or utterly ignorant about real Islam. Islam is the most intolerant religion on Earth. There are plenty of glaring examples or records of extreme intolerance and intimidations from the past and present history of Islam. And this intolerance is rooted in the Quran and Sunnah (Ahadiths – traditions of Prophet Muhammad), and also by the deeds and practices of the early disciples of Prophet Muhammad. In all Sharia-ruled pure Islamic countries, such as in Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Yemen, Kuwait, Sudan etc., all apostates are punished by death penalty.

CONTRADICTION IN THE QURAN (PART 2): THE ROLE OF MUHAMMAD ACCORDING TO ALLAH
The purpose of this article is to analyze the role of Muhammad according to Allah. Allah, the savage deity of Islam, loved Muhammad. The Quran is full of incidents where kafirs posed questions to Muhammad and Allah rushed to his rescue with ‘holy verses’. So, it would be interesting to note how Allah himself viewed the role of Muhammad as a guide to humanity.

How can you believe in “Jizya” ? Do you have no shame in asking other people to pay a different kind of tax just because they believe different? Do you have no shame in believing that apostates should be killed? Right now in Iran, a Christian pastor named Youcef Nadarkhani if fighting for his life because your evil court system delivered an execution judgement against him. All he did is become a Christian. He stopped following a gangster like Muhammad and followed a decent human being. You people should be ashamed of yourselves really. Instead of fighting the Iranian government for such a human rights abuse against Pastor Youcef, you are writing to me to show me some pathetic numbers that some “Muslims Miracle Expert” found, and you think all debate is over and Islam has been vindicated via some numbers. You Muslims love lies. You want to believe in that evil book, and think that some search engines will make that happen for you.

Out of 124,000 Prophets claimed in Islam, Allah has mentioned the names of only 25 of them in His Qur’an. When I asked my Imaam about it, he replied that mentioning the names of 124,000 Prophets will be no use for the people, and it will make the Book, the Quran, heavier. So, Allah wants to make things easier for His slaves. As a small boy, I was very much satisfied by his answer. I didn’t then realize the stupidity of Allah’s sending 124,000 prophets to set His own creation on the path of righteous. I wasn’t mature enough to think that, instead of engaging in such foolish act, He could have achieved this simply by snapping His fingers had He been omnipotent. Allah says in his Quran,

A slave and his master are NOT equal
Allah sets forth the Parable (of two men: one) a slave under the dominion of another; He has no power of any sort; and (the other) a man on whom We have bestowed goodly favours from Ourselves, and he spends thereof (freely), privately and publicly: are the two equal? (By no means;) praise be to Allah. But most of them understand not. (Quran 16:75) (See also Quran 2:178)
Slaves were definitely property and they can be used to pay off debt.

It’s just sad that people in the 21st century still teach such nonsense. They make up crazy interpretations that would make the Quran seem like it works with modern day science. They would also never admit it when they are wrong. They would rather teach their kids how to be ignorant and follow religious ideas based on blind faith. I refused to do that. I studied the Quran, asked questions, and thought about the answers I was given. It turns out that the best way to lose your faith, is to actually read your “holy book”. Reading the Quran is the main reason why I am an atheist today.

I think that the reader who has read this three-part study can appreciate what Bell and Watt are saying. The Qur’an(s) have gone through tremendous changes over many years starting from Muhammad’s time himself. Many peoples from different places contributed to the development of the Quran that we have today. Hence, varied and conflicting styles and issues are expected to be found in the Qur’an.

The previous article followed the Qur’an’s formation up to the time when Uthman sanctioned one version, and ordered the destruction of all other “Qur’ans”. To give credit to Uthman, he tried his best to make some order of a chaotic “Qur’an” situation. However, as one might expect, some parts of “unofficial” Qur’anic revelations survived after the time of Uthman, and are still a troubling matter for those, who claim that the Qur’an we have nowadays is the unaltered word of Allah, word by word, letter by letter. We also saw that the frailties of human memory may have contributed to having many versions of the Qur’anic suras and ayas. Humans just remember things in a variety of ways.

Mohammad received the message of the Quran over a period of 23 years through some type of “verbal revelation” where Gabriel (the archangel) told him the verses. God could not speak to him directly because his presence and voice was too much for humans to handle….and apparently this “all-powerful god” could not do anything to make it easier (or at least he chose not to). Every time Mohammad got these revelations, he would be in a seizure-like state where he was shaking, sweating and unaware of the world around him (sounds to me like he had a real problem!).

This above tradition of how the Qur’an was collected, is suspect to many criticisms. First, this Qur’an was not treated as an official codex, but as a private property of Hafsa, thus no authority is given to Abu Bakr’s Qur’an. Second, some believe that the whole story of collecting the Quran during Abu Bakr’s time was fabricated to give credit to Abu Bakr, and take the credit away from Uthman, the third Caliph. Some even suggested that this whole story was invented later to take the collection of the Qur’an as back as possible to the time of Muhammad’s death.

By the way, Quran 17.13-14 says every man would have to read the record of their deeds on Judgement Day which implies Muhammad would have to read his own record too. Lets for the sake of an argument say Judgement Day truly comes to pass, would Muhammad be ashamed of his “noble” deeds when he reads his record, I wonder? But knowing Muhammad, he would probably accuse the women he raped of giving him a sore penis.

According to the Quran (9.10), the mujahid (Muslim who engages in Jihad) is presented as far superior to the mere mumin (person who affirms that there is no God but Allah and that Muhammad is the Prophet of Allah). Allah asks the Prophet (Quran, 9.19), “Do you make the givers of drink to pilgrims or the maintainers of Scared Mosques equal to the believers in Allah and Last Day, and the crusaders (mujahids) in the cause of Allah?” He himself provides the answer in the same verse. “They are not comparable in the sight of Allah. Those who believe, and left their homes and strive with might fighting in Allah’s Cause [Jihad] with their goods and their lives, have the highest rank in the sight of Allah.”

This article is written not to hurt the feelings of Arabic speaking people, but to reveal the truth about the boundless religious dogmas. Every language has its elegance. No language of this world is inferior and it has nothing to do with religion. Whereas Muhammad stolen the language of Arabic as his own, and his successors using it as a weapon to enslave the minds of millions. Muhammad and his successive invaders created a myth about Arabic, as the language of God, the language of the grave and the language of the Heaven. They have succeeded in their mission by enslaving the minds of Billions of non-Arab Muslim

The classical method of presenting the Koranic text is based upon the length of the chapters. It starts with the longest sura and ends with the shortest sura. This methodology was devised by the secretary Zayd under the caliph, Umar, and there were arguments about it at the time. It is an arbitrary method of presenting the words spoken by Mohammed. It has failed to produce a text that can be easily understood. Mohammed did not produce or use the classical method of presenting the Koran.

According to the Quranic Arabic Corpus “Fasiqoon” is derived from the triliteral root “fa sin qaf” which is found 54 times in the Koran. The words derived from this root carry meanings of “defiance”, “disobedience”, “rebelling”, “wickedness” and “sinning”.

4:92 (YousafAli): Never should a believer kill a believer; but (If it so happens) by mistake, (Compensation is due): If one (so) kills a believer, it is ordained that he should free a believing slave, and pay compensation to the deceased’s family, unless they remit it freely. If the deceased belonged to a people at war with you, and he was a believer, the freeing of a believing slave (Is enough). If he belonged to a people with whom ye have treaty of Mutual alliance, compensation should be paid to his family, and a believing slave be freed. For those who find this beyond their means, (is prescribed) a fast for two months running: by way of repentance to Allah: for Allah has all knowledge and all wisdom.

2) WHY DO YOU HURT THE FEELINGS OF 1.5 BILLION MUSLIMS BY BURNING THEIR SACRED BOOK?
Answer: Do Christians know what sacred message the Quran delivers to Muslims? Even the so-called moderate Muslims don’t know the true message of Quran yet. If they have studied the Quran, then they would either become extremists or apostates of Islam. There is no room for such kinds as moderate Muslims in Islam.

So, there lies a great risk to mold one’s religious books to accommodate science. For example, Muslim and some other scientists are trying to twist the so called divine words of Allah to accommodate the Big Bang model of the origin of the Universe. But there is a good chance that the scientists, in future, reject the Big Bang model and accept another model instead. In such a position, the religious theologians would have to remold their divine books to suit that new truth.

Each word is like a diamond that shines different colors under different wavelengths.” Not to pour cold water on Dr. Ahmed’s eloquence, but the venerable Occam’s Razor posits with regard to translations that the most straightforward interpretation usually reflects the author’s true intentions. As readers will observe below, this new English translation actually labors to obscure the meaning of the texts by finding far-fetched interpretations rather than owning up to the evil content of the original Quran. It seems that the translator’s own conscience wouldn’t allow him to flesh out in plain words the brutal passages, so he equivocates and obscures instead.

The Islamic scholars around the world believe that Allah created the heavens and earth out of nothing. Several verses of the Koran explicitly state that Allah created man from clay and the heavens and the earth, out of nothing. The following quotations come from Muhammad Asad’s translation, The Message of the Quran: “The Originator is Allah of the heavens and the earth: and when He wills a thing to be, (He utters the Arabic word “kun” or let it be), and the desired object gets shape” (2.117). “But does man not bear in mind that We have created him aforetime out of nothing?”(19.67)

In response, Muslim apologists say you should think of the Koran more like a body of sermons than as an organized book. But even on this level the Koran lacks coherence. When you listen to a sermon you expect that the end of it will usually have something to do with the beginning of it. This is quite often not the case with the Koran. If you think there ought to be some logical connection between paragraph one and paragraph two or between paragraph two and paragraph three, you are obviously stuck in the linear mode of thought, and you’re not ready for the Koran. Better practice on some James Joyce first.

Muslim apologists do have an answer to such quibbles. They say that you can only appreciate the true beauty of the Koran by reading it in Arabic. Okay, then, maybe when you read, “We will put terror into the hearts of the unbelievers” (2: 226) in the original Arabic it sounds like something out of “The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyan.” But there is another problem which goes beyond the sound and sense of words. Whether or not the Koran is lacking in stylistic perfection, it is certainly lacking in coherence. And you don’t have to speak high Arabic to notice it.
