Muslim Mind Evolution: The Devastating Conclusion

Printer-friendly versionSend to friendPDF versionBy Dr Omar Zia Continuing with my last topic of evolution or lack thereof in a muslim mind let me give you 3 real life examples of how I observed Islam’s toxic effect on the mind and how, in my view they will effect the world around us in the foreseeable future. *Two years ago while traveling through Sri Lanka I befriended a taxi driver in Colombo . He was a young devout Muslim of a family of 10, two aged parents and eight grown up children. He was the youngest member of the family born and bred in Sri Lanka . During several excursions in the city we pieced together a nice detailed picture of the conditions and aspirations of Muslims in Sri Lanka . 2 years ago Muslims in Sri Lanka only constituted 7% of the population. This boy of 22 knew that. He told me in a meaningful way that non Muslim Sri Lankan are too cautious when it comes to raising a family. They worry about the education and the upbringing of their off spring and for that reason birth rate among non Muslim Sri Lankan is quite low. Muslim Sri Lankan on the other hand believed in Allah providing everything and did not care how many children they had. This boy was prophetic. Current Muslim population of Sri Lanka is listed as 9% according to many guides. Upon my enquiry as to how he got along with his non-muslim neighbors, after praising their placidity he complained that he found it quite annoying when the Muslims had to take in their neighbor’s cowardly behavior into account and slaughter their animals hidden from the public eye. He assured me that as soon as Muslims were in ascendancy in his country, which he was sure would happen in his lifetime, one of the first laws to be passed will be to allow front of the house slaughter of animals, just as it is normal in any other Muslim country. While visiting Hindu temples with me he proudly informed me that Muslims never allowed any non Muslim Sri Lankan, as they were unclean, to enter the many mosques littering Sri Lanka. He was also quite sure that if allowed, Muslims being the worthy fighters and jihadis, can sort out the Tamils within a very short period of time. To be absolutely certain of all I had heard from this young ‘time bomb’ I even accepted his offer of a cuppa at his house towards the end of my stay. This visit proved even more shocking as the rest of his family members appeared even more radicalized and angrier at their majority countrymen. I felt absolutely horrified at the prospect of what is in store for the affable but oblivious to danger non muslim Sri Lankan.. *On my last visit to Pakistan , my 18 year nephew visited me and implored to arrange a visa for him to go to England . He was close to completing his schooling but was quite despondent of his future prospects in Pakistan. I explained to him that even though I will endeavor to help him all I can, the final word would rest with the British consulate and it would be his academic skills which in the end would decide his fate. My ulterior motive was to inspire him to study harder as he seemed quite lacking in knowledge for his age. I also told him that whilst in England he would have to supplement his studies with menial jobs. He seemed absolutely comfortable with that news. As I was analyzing a disturbing verse from the Quran ( 9:29 ) before he arrived I just decided to test him on his humanity and asked if he had ever read Quran. He proudly replied that he had, several times, but only in Arabic and therefore did not understand any of it. I explained the verse to him and asked for his thoughts on this fascist verse. Without any hesitation he responded that he absolutely believes it is correct. Upon my flustered query as to how can he think of subjugating or killing his hosts in England, he replied to my astonishment that once Islam has overwhelmed England then this verse would become mandatory and Allah’s deed must be carried out. I couldn’t help but feel awed at the corrupting power of Islam. *The third incident which I wish to relate came soon after during a dinner chat with my progressive, highly educated and largely nonreligious brother. I was lamenting to him at Taliban’s tactics for usurping power in Pakistan . He coolly informed me that Taliban are good people except that they have interpreted Islam wrongly and all true Muslims harbor a Taliban within them. Much shocked at this statement, I asked him to show me what part Taliban had misinterpreted from the Quran. Noticing that he was attempting to change the subject I persisted and asked him if he had read the Quran with meanings. Not surprisingly the answer was a somewhat shameful NO. After dinner I asked him to bring out his translated copy of the Quran. He did not possess one. What he luckily did have though was a functioning computer in his son’s room. I persuaded him to sit with me and I got out the verses which were being used, with proof and through their own mouth by Osama, Naik, Israr and many other unashamed fascist nuts. I showed him ahadiths which corroborated those verses from the Bukhari and Muslim collection. I could almost hear his Islamic world collapsing inside him and heard his heartbeat rising. I knew that I was very near to my goal of making him see the truth. It was just seconds away when all of a sudden he almost toppled the monitor and got up in a rage screaming that it was all western propaganda. He started an incoherent and increasingly alarming tirade against the Jews, the West and America and eventually blamed me for being an instrument in the hands of some western think-tank. Suffice it to say that I left his house with a heavy heart and no hope for a peaceable future for our globe.
