The Society Muhammad Created

Quoted from the "ISLAM MUHAMMAD & THE KORAN"

Chapter 15 TESTING THE TRUTHFULNESS OF THE KORAN

The Society Muhammad Created

If one examines the impact of Islam on the society Muhammad created by the dictates of his Koran, one discovers a society full of corruption, bloodshed, lack of individual freedom, and brutality.

1. Corruption and bloodshed
Caliph Omar Ibn-Alkhataab acquitted Al-Mugherah Ibn Shuba who committed adultery with a woman named Omm Jameel. He hinted to Zyad Ibn Samila, one of four witnesses, to testify in support of Al-Mugherah. Zyad testified against three other eye witnesses Abi-Bakra, Nafi Ibn Alharith, and Shibl Ibn Maabad who testified that they saw Al-Mugherah in the act. Caliph Omar accepted the witness of Zyad and acquitted Al-Mugherah and ordered him to beat the three eye witnesses who testified against him (Al Ostorah Waltorath, The Legend and Heritage, page 266).
Caliph Alwathic, the last Caliph of Abaseieen was homosexual. His partner was "Muhag," an attractive young man. It is said: If Muhag gets angry with Alwathic and refuses to have sex with him, the Caliph would suspend all the government activities until Muhag resumes his relationship with him (The Hidden Truth, pages 124 - 126).

A good example of the bloodshed under Islam is found in the succession of Caliphs who came after Muhammad. Caliph Omar was assassinated and Caliph Ali Ibn Abu Talib was assassinated. Caliph Uthman Ibn Affan, who ordered the writing of the new Koran, was also assassinated. The Muslims refused to bury him in the Muslim cemetery and after his death two Muslims jumped on his dead body and broke one of his ribs (The Hidden Truth, pages 25, 26).
Caliph Alwaleed Ibn Yazeed used to shoot the Koran with arrows until holes covered it. Then he wrote a poem in which he spoke to the Koran saying:

In the day of judgment, when Allah asked you: Who made all these holes in you? say: Alwaleed did that (The Hidden Truth, pages 86, 87).

Many of the Muslim governors during the Caliphate period robbed the countries they governed and became very rich. When they died they left an enormous amount of wealth.
That was the society Muhammad created with his Koran. Muslims killed Muslims. The Islamic history of the first century after Muhammad is stained with blood and characterized with brutality. What about the modern Islamic societies?

2. Lack of individual freedom
Muslims who leave their own countries to seek a better way of life enjoy total freedom in the Christian nations of Europe, Australia, and North America, and take advantage of that freedom to promote Islam by means of television, radio, books, tracts, and financial aid to those who embrace Islam. They are also building mosques with oil dollars coming from Libya, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates. Yet, they do not permit the preaching of the gospel in their countries. In some Islamic states there is not even one church building. It is a crime to smuggle a Bible into these countries. If a Muslim accepts Jesus Christ as his savior and Lord, he is considered apostate and should be executed. A Muslim can not express his opinions freely if they are critical of Islam.
On August 9th, 1996, Al-Ahram, the semi-official daily newspaper in Egypt, reported:

The High Court of personal affairs announced its verdict in the case of Dr. Nasr Hamid Abu Zaid professor at Cairo University, and demanded that he divorce his wife, Ibtihal Yunus, because, as the court stated, Dr. Abu Zaid was an apostate and that was clear from what he wrote in his books mocking Muhammad and the Koran, and saying that the Sharia (Koran's laws) is the reason for the demise of the Muslim countries.

Mrs. Abu Zaid did not wish to divorce her husband. Abu Zaid and his wife fled from Egypt.
The New York Times on August 6, 1996, quoted a human rights advocate who said "The ruling is a slap in the face of civil society."
The situation in Afghanistan, under the Taliban Islamic movement, is another example. Newsweek Magazine (October 14, 1996) printed a report by Rod Nordland and Tony Clifton under the title The Islamic Nightmare. Here is a part of what they wrote:

The Mullahs who took over that week in Kabul, the conquered capital of Afghanistan, made Iran's ayatollahs look like Western playboys. The fundamentalist Taliban movement issued decree after decree through its six-member ruling council, the Shura. Television stations and movie theaters were shut down, and music was banned from the radio. Kabul's one million people were ordered to pray five times a day - including two visits to the local mosque, where attendance would be taken. Criminals were threatened with beatings, mutilation and death. Men were given 45 days to grow proper Muslim beards - which are left untrimmed - and were told to shed their Western clothes in favor of traditional Afghan dress.

Women were chastised even more severely. They were sent home from their schools and jobs and were instructed to veil themselves from head to toe, preferably in the suffocating burqa, in which even the opening for the eyes is screened with mesh. Violators of the female dress code were beaten on the streets by Taliban fighters. In a sermon last Friday, the Muslim Sabbath, Syed Ghiasuddin, the acting education minister in the new theocracy, explained that a woman is like "a rose - you water it and keep it at home for yourself to look at and smell. It is not supposed to be taken out of the house to be smelled." The establishment of a severely fundamentalist regime in Kabul set off alarm bells all over the region. Amnesty International accused the Taliban of conducting "a reign of terror."

3. Blind hatred
The Washington Post Magazine in its issue of August 25, 1996, wrote the story of David Belfield, a Baptist young man from a small town on Long Island, who came to Washington to study at Howard University. Under the influence of an Iranian Muslim, David embraced Islam, changed his name to Daoud Salahuddin and became increasingly devout. His Iranian handler had little trouble persuading him to kill a man he had never met. Daoud saw the act as an Islamic duty. The late Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini ordered the assassination of Ali Akbar Tabatabi who lived in Bethesda, Maryland, and was the chief spokesman in the United States for the counter-revolutionary forces against the Khomeini government. Daoud Salahuddin assassinated Tabatabai, fled to Canada and then to Tehran. The Iranian government had agreed to send him to China to study medicine but never did. Here is what the Post Magazine wrote on page 22:

The community Salahuddin had chosen to enter was international in scope but driven by sectarian and political feuds, despite heady talk of Arab and Muslim world unity. In the early "70s, Shiite Iran and Sunni Iraq were supporting Kurdish rebellions in each other's countries; radical Palestinians and royalist tribes, all Sunni Muslims, were fighting for control of Jordan; the Muslims of Pakistan were splitting into two separate nations, and the Arab countries - under competing Muslim monarchist, socialist and nationalist rulers -were plotting constantly against one another.

This is a true picture of what Islam has done for Islamic countries. And this is how they turn some of those who are converted to Islam into assassins in the name of Allah.

4. Brutality
In 1995 the Sudanese Islamic government tried to assassinate President Hosny Mubarak of Egypt in Ethiopia.
There has also been a great deal of turmoil in recent times in Egypt, Algeria, Afghanistan, Yemen, Israel, Uganda, and Iran. The source of trouble is the militant Muslims who obey the Koran to the letter. The Washington Times said in an article printed on August 25, 1996:

The Sudanese government proceeded to escalate the war. They even redefined the war. It was no longer a civil war between the state and a group of dissenting citizens but a Jihad by Muslims against "Infidels." Every non-Muslim and non-Arab became an enemy of the state.... It is in this context that the massive aerial and ground bombardments of innocent civilians have been and are being conducted... to them war is heaven. Their warriors are taught that if they kill an "infidel" they get a place in heaven. If they are killed by an "infidel" they are wedded to one of Allah's pretty virgins in heaven. A rosy portrait indeed. The slave market is as thriving as never before. Thousands of women and children captured in slave raids remain in captivity.

Add to that the many Sudanese Christians who were tortured and crucified and the boys and girls who were captured and forced to be Muslims and trained to fight Christians. In addition, many Coptic Christians were killed in Egypt, and many girls were kidnapped and raped, and forced to marry Muslims. This is the society that the Koran created.
Dr. Christian Goforth wrote the following story which portrays how Christians are suffering and are martyred under Islamic regimes.
