Jihad Watch

Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

“The most terrifying book in print in any language”

Nov 14, 2018 5:12 pm By Robert Spencer

Reader reviews of my new book The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS, which you can order here now, have been quite positive. Here are two good ones from Amazon:

History of 1400 years of Islamic imperialist aggression

September 4, 2018

One of the most popular Islamic manuals of Sharia law, “The Reliance of the Traveler” defines “jihad” as “war against non-Muslims”. This book is the coherent history of that Islamic holy war against non-Moslems.

Robert Spencer has done a masterful job of portraying just what the title of the book promises, namely, a history of jihad from Muhammad to ISIS. For the goriest of details of what the Muslims did to other peoples, Spencer relies on the Islamic historians. Of course, Moslems are not the only ones in history who committed brutal aggression against other people, but the Moslems are the only ones who did it while following the sacred commands of their god and prophet. And, they are still doing it because Allah’s words in the Koran are considered valid for all of eternity! This book is not a history of human aggression and brutality, in general. It is a history of Moslem aggression and brutality committed in the name of their religion. Everyone should read it in order to understand what the civilized world is up against today.

In addition to this history book, I urge everyone to read Robert Spencer’s earlier book, “The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam”. It, too, like all of Robert Spencer’s books, is based exclusively on the Islamic sacred texts and the writings of respected Islamic religious authorities. Those Islamic sources are the only place to go for the truth about Islam. No, not about “radical Islam” or “extremist Islam” or “militant Islam”. As Turkish President Erdogan famously said: “There is no moderate Islam or immoderate Islam. Islam is Islam, and that”s it.”

Utterly terrifying
This is the most terrifying book in print in any language.
The most demented, sadistic mind could not fabricate the horrors revealed.
Yet it is as clinical and passionless as an autopsy report in a criminal trial.
The documentation trail back to historic sources for every fact, is as rigorous and exhaustive as any work of history to come out of an ivy league University Press; and I have read a few.
This book was a generation overdue.
It will be dismissed as hate speech.
Because at no time in human history has the truth been so dangerous, or the stakes so high, or those opposed to truth so entrenched and organized and determined.
They sense the End Game, and this book stands in their way.
Read this book. Ignorance on this issue is no longer an option for any free people.
This is not a book of hyperbole, or political bias, or a ‘narrative’.
It is simply a brutal revelation of historical fact that most have turned away from for its sheer horror.
Until now.

    I agree Mr. Spencer. You are showing Islam for what it truely is…that it has not and can never do exist equally and Lea efullynirh anynother faith and that jihad is the means that Islam uses to become dominate over al countries and faiths.. All of your books do this but my favorites are Stealth Jihad and this new book The History of Jihad which I just received .
    If we don’t wake up and do something soon we will be one of those countries conquered by Islamic jjihad .
    May God bless you and keep,you safe. Keep writing and keep fighting the battle agai st Islam. We need more 21st Century Crusaders like you, that are fighting against the spread of Islam by education people about the truth of Islam and the threat it poses for the world.

      There are no airplane engines whirring overhead dropping bombs on our cities, no tanks grinding their tracks in our streets. No stomp of marching boots can be heard in our streets, Citizens are not being dragged from their homes and either killed, enslaved or imprisoned…yet we are being attacked and even though no one in power will admit it, we are forced to be at war though it is a silent war on our part

    THE HISTORY OF JIHAD by Robert Spencer is truly “long overdue” as the reviewer wrote.

    The History of Jihad should be on university reading lists for students doing INTRODUCTION TO ISLAM courses.

    THE HISTORY OF JIHAD by Robert Spencer should be REQUIRED READING for all diplomats working with Muslims and for all police officers dealing with Muslim criminals.

      Maybe the Qur’an was the prequel?

    “I am the gate. If anyone enters through Me, he will be saved. He will come in and go out and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come that they may have life, and have it in all its fullness.” – John 10:9-10

      Agree with gi.

      THE HISTORY OF JIHAD has the list of the GREATEST GENOCIDE IN HISTORY …. 270 MILLION DEATHS CAUSED BY THE JIHAD DOCTRINE.

      The JIHAD doctrine is the fruit of the Islamic HATRED DOCTRINE called AL WALAA WAL BARAA … the love of Muslims and the HATRED of and CLEANSING FROM the filthy KUFAAR.

      Muslims are religiously required to HATE, DESPISE and SHOW CONTEMPT towards the dirty KAFIRS and hate them ‘FOR THE SAKE OF ALLAH’.

      W-B is an ESSENTIAL TEACHING and PRACTICE that is NECESSARY for Islamic salvation.

    “The most demented, sadistic mind could not fabricate the horrors revealed.”

    Well, the ‘most demented, sadistic mind’ in the shape of the sociopathic, psychopathic, cynically opportunist inventor of ‘Allah’ and islam did! And the sad history of mankind just goes to show that you can indeed ‘fool some of the people all of the time’, or else this travesty of ‘religion’ would have died with the deluded monster who purportedly created it 1,400 years ago.

    I am curious as to when the speakers such as R Spencer and all the others might once again be informing the Defense Dept, Army intelligence, the FBI, about the nature of the Jihad, and it’s history and methodology. This is now some 9 yrs since all that was ended by the Obama administration, and there has been no rescinding of that dreadful appeasing decision. This would be the very necessary step to at least discuss the ramifications of the 1400 yr old Jihad against others.
