From a young age in mosque I was taught that Islam meant peace, and that Mohammed was a perfect, infallible man; during these times I read the Quran in Arabic, and had no idea what any of it meant, as I hadn’t read a translation. I just assumed that it was all peaceful, I was completely oblivious to the systemic anti-Semitism, hatred against non-believers, and the commands for a caliphate through violent subjugation of non-believers; this was obfuscated by the Muslim clerics. Furthermore, it was indoctrinated in me that anyone who mentions this is a Muslim-hater, and the neologism “Islamophobia” was continually perpetuated, which is to silence criticism of Sharia oppression and violence against the “Kuffar”, in order to establish the ideal caliphate which Mohammed had instructed. He claimed that ‘’I have been made victorious through terror’’. In the next paragraph I will begin describing my journey and how I eventually left Islamo-fascism to find the light and true peace of the saviour and Lord Jesus Christ.
During my years, in secondary school I was accustomed to the behaviour of my community, and how violent and degrading they would be. I was sworn at, brutally attacked with a compass, for two years. This was all during the time when I was a Muslim; the problem of Muslim gangs operating in schools is also another essential issue. However, the authorities were very reluctant to do anything, due to political correctness and appeasement of the Islamic community. When I moved to my next secondary school, I was emotionally bullied again by Muslims, and they would isolate me in order to act superior; by the way, they were fanatical supporters of the left-wing Labour Party in the UK, which was led by the vehement anti-Semite and jihadi ally Jeremy Corbyn. Again, the same process occurred, where the bullies would deny their behaviour, and the case would be closed. Moreover, at home my father was very abusive towards my mother. Even though she worked hard to bring him to this county, he was very unappreciative; he never contributed to our finances, and always sent his money to Kashmir. One day my grandfather became ill and my mother wanted to see him for the last time, but my abusive father stopped her and my uncle even justified it where he said in Islamic law “a woman can’t travel anywhere without her husband’’, unfortunately my grandfather passed away, and this reasoning of Islamic law made me even more furious.
As I had an interest in politics, I would continually watch individuals such as Tommy Robinson. In school we were taught that he was a far-right extremist, which he was not. Muslim councillors also propagated this belief. I had an interest in what he said about Islam, and then I researched it, and to my surprise, everything he said was true, but you couldn’t discuss it with your mosque leaders or family due to severe backlash. Through my interest in researching Islam, I came across David Wood’s YouTube channel, and spent time watching what he said. He used the primary Islamic sources which were the basis for the actions of the Islamic extremists, and I was quite surprised that I had never heard of this before. At first I thought he was a liar, but everything became clear and was true. Then I became aware of an essential individual within the counter-jihad movement, Robert Spencer. I bought a lot of his books, including The History of Jihad; The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades); The Complete Infidel’s Guide to the Koran; The Complete Infidel’s Guide to Free Speech (and Its Enemies); The Complete Infidel’s Guide to Iran and The Complete Infidel’s Guide to ISIS, along with The Truth About Muhammad and Did Muhammad Exist?. Robert was perhaps the most influential person to expose the threat and insurgency of Islamic supremacy, and wants to prevent a totalitarian Islamic theocracy; being reasonably minded, I knew that Robert wasn’t hateful, as the leftist media and Jihadi propaganda tried to make him out, as well as others. He truly cared for freedom and secularism and wanted Muslims to see the truth.
In addition, as I became aware of this barbarism, and paedophilia within this fascistic , expansionist ideology, I began to discuss it with friends and family. One of the main arguments was that the offensive passages were taken out of context, so I asked in which context was it all right to rape female captives and girls, to violently subjugate non-believers and implement a caliphate, to impose the jizya, to burn and behead apostates, just as Mohammed did, as well as his successor Abu Bakr, to oppress women and have slaves, among other barbaric practices which were seen as “sunnah”. I realised there was no freedom within Islam, and I just received abuse from some of my family members. They found it inflammatory that I aligned my views with Tommy Robinson and others; they didn’t respond except with anger. Furthermore, I used to watch Islamic apologists including Ali Dawah and Adnan Rashid, and I thought they were good debaters, until I saw them using ad hominem, denial and jokes as if those things would refute Robert’s claims on Islam. I lost trust in them when they cowered from debates with Robert. This conveyed that they were completely afraid for their views, and their deception tactics, to get exposed, and this gave me more confidence in Robert. When I socialised with Muslims at work, I saw through their dialogue that they were very anti-Hindu and anti-Jewish. They wanted Pakistan to obliterate India and finance Kashmiri jihadists; I wondered how anyone could have this mentality. As I researched Islam more, it was clear that they wanted Mohammed’s prophecy to be fulfilled (Ghazwa-e-Hind), which was the infiltration and conquering of India to establish Islam. This was also parallel to the hadith where Mohammed states “the final hour won’t come until Muslims kill Jews’’. This type of hatred was openly endorsed within the Labour Party, which Muslim councillors within the city I live in support.
Moreover, I learnt about the wife beating in (4:34) and wondered how Mohammed can be thought to be a moral man. He also had sex slaves, which is reinforced in Qur’an 4:24. This was the climactic point where I knew Islam was not for me. I discovered that Jesus Christ was more forgiving and peaceful. In one incident, a woman who committed adultery came to him and he forgave her, whereas when a woman who had committed adultery came to Mohammed, he ordered for her to be stoned. Jesus was truly peaceful and loving, whereas Mohammed was sadistic. The tenets that Mohammed proposed have been emulated across the world in Islamic states: Iran reduced the age of consent for marriage to 9 years old, many Islamic countries degrade women and stone women who are accused of adultery. How is this peaceful or out of context? ISIS , Boko Haram, and many other armed Jihadist groups have all been emulating Mohammed, and moderate Muslims keep telling us they don’t represent Islam. Guess what? They DO. There are many secular Muslims who just want to get on with their lives, and pray, fast and do Eid; apart from that they are not really religious. No one has a problem with this. The problem is, however, what are they doing to impede the extremists? There were many peaceful Germans, but they did nothing to stop Hitler. Hitler was also a fanatic of Islam, he referred to the battle where Charles Martel fought the Ottomans, he wished the Muslims had succeeded so Germany would be Islamic. He was also friends with the Mufti of Jerusalem Haj Amin al-Husseini. So when people use the word “Nazi” to silence critics of Islam, remember that Hitler loved Islam, therefore those opposing Islam are not Nazis. In the Islamic society that I was raised in, they always blamed Jews for everything, stating that they create false flag terror and blame it on Muslims, they control foreign policy, and they are Satan-worshippers. These beliefs disturbed me quite a lot. However, when someone criticizes Islam, Muslims will quickly play the victim card. Yet some Muslims that I knew and many mainstream Muslim leaders make derogatory remarks about Hindus and Jews, but are afraid of any criticism themselves. I found this horrific belief system outrageous. In mosques they would teach that “Hamas will destroy Israel” and call on people to support the Kashmir Jihadis financially or going to fight them. These views were not challenged at all; when I contacted councillors and Members of Parliament to research about Islam and to deal with mosques that expose hate, I would be blocked, ignored, or attacked with ad hominems. The censorship is incredible. Some of the moderate Muslims councillors support Sharia, and when challenged, they are silent and block comments and ignore their critics, whilst pushing their agenda to deceive. I began to see the mentality of some Muslims within my community. There was a man who I worked with who made derogatory remarks about a Muslim female teenager when a sex tape was revealed; he was happy about it and said “Shame,” and yet was sharing it with others. So did many others; this is currently the mentality. The town I’m from has become a no-go zone. Recently a white family had to be moved from their home after being severely beaten by Muslims, and the police did not even investigate or press charges. Moderate Muslims are outraged when we expose Islam and the reasoning behind the terrorist attacks, and rape of infidels, yet they are more angry at us for being “Islamophobic” than dealing with the grooming gang pandemic.
Islam has violently subjugated non-believers for 14 centuries, invading from India to Spain, to Constantinople, North Africa and Europe. The way to defeat it at the moment is the battle of ideas, to expose and tell the truth, as the truth defeats falsehood. However, the levels of censorship are high, and so is the level of appeasement from authorities. Moderate Muslims aren’t doing much to combat extremism within their mosques. Mohammed not only waged war with non-believers, but also with the “hypocrites,’’ which are the Muslims that are not Islamic, e.g they don’t pray and they listen to music. Mohammed stated that “whoever doesn’t pray in the mosque, burn him with a flamethrower.” How is this peaceful?
I couldn’t stand this brutal dogma anymore, and decided to find the passion, resurrection, and love of Lord Jesus Christ. I want to salute and bow to all the people on the counter-jihad movement, including Tommy Robinson, David Wood, Robert Spencer, Pamela Geller, and many others. It takes huge courage to stand for the truth, I have faced many consequences including losing work and friends, but I will not be silenced.

Thank you for sharing your inspiring and courageous story. It is not an easy path but is the true path.
tim gallagher says
I agree, rubiconcrest, that leaving Islam is definitely the true and morally correct path. Whether the person who wakes up to Islam’s evil decides to join some more peaceful and decent religion or no longer believes in a God at all, leaving that vile, murderous creed, Islam, which has brought so much misery to the human race, is the right thing for all people to do. I enjoy reading about these people who desert islam. I hope there are very large numbers of people just like the person who has told his story here. Every person who leaves Islam is making the world a better, more peaceful place.

“It takes huge courage to stand for the truth….”
No, it shouldn’t, not in the UK……until recent years, that is. And what’s happened in recent years to ruin that? The place has been utterly corrupted by the importation of things that have never belonged in the UK, and that includes islam and – sorry to have to say it – the people who practise or condone it and defile everything and everyone with whom they come into contact in the process. That’s the truth. Doesn’t sound nice, does it? Just ask the girls of Rotherham, Keighley, Oxford, Bradford…etc. etc. and the families of many victims of the Manchester bombings, the 7/7 London bombings, the London and Westminster bridge atrocities, the Reading murders……..
OTTER says
Nothing but sheer admiration all my heartfelt wishes to you for a happy and healthy life. As the ‘Apostate Prophet’ says in his inimitable line: ‘Stay away from Islam’ –and you did.
My request: Please take other Muslims away from Islam too. We need people like you. In fact, you don’t know how rare and precious you are!

Those who aren’t yet aware that the Internet is destroying Islam, will certainly become aware in the years to come. Islam is built on half-truths and myth, which get passed on by unknowing muslims. But now the chain has been broken, and there’s no escape for Islam:

Beautiful testimony brother. I am so glad that you left the Satan’s religion (sorry but that’s what it looks to me) and you embraced Christ.
“ISIS , Boko Haram, and many other armed Jihadist groups have all been emulating Mohammed, and moderate Muslims keep telling us they don’t represent Islam. Guess what? They DO.”
I keep telling everyone this. Leftists and the West keep brain washing people into think that jihadist are not true Muslims, that they are “mentally ill”. However they are the true Muslims (sorry but the truth hurts sometimes), they don’t deny what is in the Quran (like others) and they follow the teachings of Muhammad.
“I want to salute and bow to all the people on the counter-jihad movement, including Tommy Robinson, David Wood, Robert Spencer, Pamela Geller, and many others”
Indeed. I would also mention “apostate prophet” from youtube, he is not christian or follows any religion but he left Islam and exposes it daily. Great person and his videos are full of information and are really worth to watch.
djm says
Thanks for your testimony. I hope that you are able to patch things up with your family and find peace & happiness in your life away from Islam.

We should condemn anti Muslim bigots. At the same time, we should applaud people who expose the truth about Islam in spite of “Islamophobia” and “racism” accusations.

Good Morning dear Mustafa,
This comment is in addition to the one I have already posted.
Definitely a day will come, when all the Muslims realize the truth and walk towards good path.
They also realize what Love and peace means.
All the best and good luck.
God bless you along with my blessings and takes care of you and your whole family.

As I always say, Muslims are the first victim of Islam. I always rejoice when I see stories like yours! (Doubly so, knowing you have come to know Christ.)
One of the things that shocked me when I first read the Quran was the anger Allah displayed – not just toward nonbelievers, but even towards his followers. I remember it was on page after page.
Praise God that you have been delivered from this death cult and have been brought to Jesus, who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life!

Mark Spahn (West Seneca, NY) says
Thank you for this essay, Mustafa. You write, “Mohammed stated that “whoever doesn’t pray in the mosque, burn him with a flamethrower.”” Please cite the reference for this assertion. Is it in the Quran? In Bukhari? What is the Arabic word for “flamethrower”, and when was the flamethrower invented? (Or was Muhammed a time traveler?)
Peter Buckley says
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet ﷺ said, “No prayer is harder for the hypocrites than the Fajr and the ‘Isha’ prayers and if they knew the reward for these prayers at their respective times, they would certainly present themselves (in the mosques) even if they had to crawl.” The Prophet added, “Certainly I decided to order the Mu’adh-dhin (call-maker) to pronounce Iqama and order a man to lead the prayer and then take a fire flame to burn all those who had not left their houses so far for the prayer along with their houses.”

Awesome Testimony Mustafa:it always impresses me when anybody leaves islam{no matter what they do afterwards} but especially to go from islam’s Doctrine of Hate{al walaa wal baraa} and religious apartheid system of muslims vs non -muslims{=”the WORST of created beings”{koran 98:6}to authentic Christianity{With its Golden Rule,2 chief commandments of LOVE Deut6:4-9,lev 19:18 which are also in Judaism}is amazing.
The internet is a key factor:It is the Nemesis of islam as the truth about muhammed not being perfect and the errors in the koran cannot be hidden any more.
No doubt ex-muslims are familiar with the islamic troll:they often PRETEND to be something else{including atheists,hindus,christians etc},and if you say muhamed was a pederast they will say you are a pederast{this is classic Projection and Transference}
They simply cannot handle the Truth.The more you look at ‘perfect’ mo the worse it gets,the more you look at the koran the more holes are found{islamic ‘scholars’ have HIDDEN all this using the Classical Arabic nonsense}
I discovered on the internet yesterday some astonishing teachings of an islamic scholar called ibn Qayyim{Bada’i al Fuwa’id}
“It is narrated that the companions of the prophet used to masturbate when they were on military expeditions or travelling”
Bada’i al Fuwa’id page 129{Ibn qayyim}
This proves to me that muhammed’s companions were {to use a British word} a shower of wankers.
Literally.
And it makes me wonder ,did they do it to each other?
{They rode the desert by day …but then at night they rode each other…}
Sex advice from islamic ‘scholars’ for the single male or female…
“if a man makes a hole in a WATERMELON,or a piece of dough,or a leather skin,or a STATUE,then this is the same we said about other kinds of masturbation.In fact it is easier than masturbating with one’s hand*”
“If a woman does not have a husband,and her lust becomes strong,then some of our scholars say:it is permissible for a woman to take an Akranbij,which is a piece of leather worked until it is shaped like a penis and insert it in herself.
She may also use a CUCUMBER”
Bada’i al Fuwa’id page 129{ibn qayyim}
*Doesn’t it look like this islamic ‘scholar’,this holey ‘holy’ man is talking from personal experience?

prebangian says
One down, 1.6 billion to go! How does the Holy Trinity accomplish 1.6 billion conversions?
Mustafa, may the peace and joy of Jesus be with you always!
Paul B says
It is better than that, Prebangian. I would commend to you “A Wind in the House of Islam: How God is drawing Muslims around the world to faith in Jesus Christ” by David Garrison, which goes into a large number of other similar conversions. Written in 2014 it stated that more Muslims had left Islam in the previous 14 years than in the preceding 14 centuries. Muslims in the know consider this to be a great disaster.
Of course, as Jihad Watch readers know all too well, leaving Islam remains extremely dangerous so apostates generally keep quiet about it, and the media of course will not report any such occurrences as they do not portray Islam in a glowing light. And equally obviously it is a very, very long way to go. But the internet and David Woods (and others) are getting the message out.

BTW I always really laugh at how muslim apologists post videos of how they win their ‘debates’ usually using expressions like ‘Game Over’,’Career ended’,’Destroyed’ which they apply to critics of islam.
Some simple questions for muslims…
1.The Golden Rule is missing in islam:explain WHY.
{it is defined as “the MEANING of the law of Moses and the teachings of all the prophets” Matthew 7:12;and yet allah{Hint:’the BEST of deceivers’ koran 3:54 completely MISSED it}
2.Why does allah get the Theology of the Doctrine of the Trinity wrong:he has MARY in it, but MARY is NOT in the Trinity?
{CAN YOU SPOT allah’s EPIC THEOLOGY ERROR of koran 5:116,allah’s ‘perfect’ book,the one muslims say has no errors in it:well,except for all the errors in it}?
3.If allah is the SAME as the YHWH of the Bible then explain WHY and HOW..
1.allah MISSED the 2 chief commandments of YHWH Deut 6:4-9,Lev 19:18
And teaches the OPPOSITE to Lev19:18 in koran 5:51 so there is no ‘love thy neighbor’ in islam as the infidels are classed as inferior to the muslims{koran 2:65/koran 98:6}You cannot love your neighbor in islam if he is Jewish{=’to be despised and hated’koran 2:65}
Can you see how this violates YHWH’s 2nd Chief Commandment?
4.WHY does islam have a Doctrine of HATE{Al walaa wal baraa}when the Bible has a Doctrine of LOVE{=2 chief LOVE commandments+Golden Rule}
5.Why did allah MISS Genesis 1:27:people being made in the spiritual image of God and thus EQUAL before God:so Jews and Christians etc are EQUAL according to Genesis 1:27 but in islam Jews and Christians are called ‘the WORST of created beings ‘ koran 98:6 in islams’ RELIGIOUS APARTHEID SYSTEM?
6.Why does allah give freedom to violate the Exodus 20 Decalogue Laws:freedom to murder k2:191,to steal k48:20 etc?
Doesn’t that defeat the purpose of the Torah?
7.”We bestowed on Jesus the Gospel”Koran 5:46
Explain how it is possible Jesus had the Gospel when the Gospel came many years AFTER the time of Jesus and was written by humans,not by God.
8.”Above it are nineteen”koran 74:30
Explain what allah means…
9.Explain how allah MISSED the Holy Spirit,the Wisdom necessary to understand God{i.e the Helper} and the source of prophecy.
Was allah out the day when it was manifested to mankind?
The Bible has the PRESENCE of the Holy Spirit.
The koran has the ABSENCE of the Holy Spirit which is why it is full of holes.
10.”Abraham was not a Jew” {koran 3:67}
Explain how the patriarch of Judaism isn’t Jewish…..?
Explain how ‘Jesus is a muslim’ when Jesus says He is Jewish in the Gospel{John 4 v 22} a book allah CONFIRMS {koran3:3,koran 5:46-47}
11.The Dawa folk say this is Jesus in the koran
“Lo! I am the slave of allah he hath given me the scripture and hath appointed me a prophet” koran 19:30
Please explain how an INFANT can speak like an adult{see previous line koran 19:29} and how is it possible he has “the scripture”?
12.HOW did allah forget God’s name is YHWH,not ‘allah’?
13.if allah reveals himself only through Arabic explain WHY the Torah was revealed in HEBREW.
I know the answers.
But if muslims want answers- follow allah’s advice in koran 10:94
“Consult those who read the scripture that was before thee”
That’s the BIBLE.
The koran confirms the Bible but the Bible doesn’t confirm the koran.

Marttheman says
It takes a lot of study, talking to muslims, reasoning and reading up before one can lift the veil of islam and see the true nature of it. It is a complex issue that not many people want to engage in because it doesn’t fit in with their beliefs, they practise cultural relativism or they are afraid to be considered islamophobe. That’s why this remains an uphill battle.

Good choice to come back to the good teachings of Lord Christ.
One advise for improving your knowledge of counter-jihad: watch Christian Prince’s debates (or Arabian Prophet – same person).
Many of his YouTube videos are down, but reposted by others to avoid strikes. Along with David Wood, CP is a well trained, Arabic speaking Christian apologist with refreshing new and inspiring arguments.
One correction only to your article: Charles Martel defeated the African mohamedan armies at Tours, and not the Ottomans.
May the light of reason guide you forward!
mortimer says
My compliments for Mustafa Qadri for growing a mature, adult conscience and for thinking for himself. He was not the only Muslim who CHOKED at the though of Koran 4. 23-24 an amoral and incredible ideas to come out of the mouth of a god. MANY MUSLIMS HAVE CHOKED AT THIS VERSE IN MY EXPERIENCE.
Muslims of today DO NOT want to be like Mohammed. They are half-way out of Islam.
A.F. Bakker says
Great article and I applaude Mustafa for his courage to stand up, no small feat considering the wrath of his community. I decided to take action and to print some of the facts stated here on A4 and I then will glue those pamphlets to a public pole that allows people here to vent political views. It is here in my local village of Zwanenburg, near Amsterdam, Holland. Things are quite the same here as stated about Mustafa’s home town.

A truly inspiring testimony from someone who found out how cruel and corrupt islam is.

Great to see you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour.

Mustafa-
Allow me to add my voice to those extending their appreciation for your post and your life. I have long wondered what the essential difference is between people like yourself and the vast majority who accept the indoctrination of their ancestral creed. You have my considerable respect.
If you are unfamiliar with him, I commend the writings of Ibn Warraq, also of Pakistani heritage, to you. I consider him brilliant, and as opposed to some of the others you mention, he, like you, knows Islam from the inside. I find the writings of people like Warraq, Nonie Darwish, and Aynaz Anni Cyrus to be more compelling than those who have only studied Islam from the outside.

I also am thankful for discovering jihadi watch & robert Spencer work as I had bad experiences in the past & knew a lot of things but as you say, if you dare question islam then you are racist. I knew a lot of muslims hated non muslims & women.
