New York Times Falsely Claims Muhammad Would Deplore Conversion of Hagia Sophia to a Mosque

Jul 20, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer

My latest in PJ Media: If you’re concerned about the implications for the geopolitical scene, as well as for the Church, of the conversion of Hagia Sophia to a mosque, relax: in a piece by the prominent Turkish moderate Muslim Mustafa Akyol, the New York Times is here to tell you that what’s happening is […]

A Rebuttal of Dr. Craig Considine’s Claim That Muhammad Was the First Anti-Racist

Jul 19, 2020 11:00 am By Isaac Marshall

 Over the past three or four years, few Christian speakers have caused more confusion on the topic of Islam as the Catholic sociology professor Dr. Craig Considine. His popular books and videos have propelled his ideas into the mainstream discussion of Islam, but how reliable a source is Dr. Considine on Islam and on […]

Was Muhammad a Prophet of War? A Rebuttal of Professor Juan Cole

Jul 17, 2020 12:00 pm By Isaac Marshall

 ‘The Qur’anic verses commanding self-defence have been cherry-picked by anti-Muslim writers and by small cells of extremists to depict the Prophet and the community as militant. This is far from accurate’. This excerpt is from what I believe is the most disgraceful video I have ever seen on Islam: Muhammad: A Prophet of War? […]

India: Sufi Muslims threaten ‘law and order problems’ if film depicting Muhammad favorably isn’t banned

Jul 16, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Raza Academy is a Sufi Muslim organization in India. The Sufis are enraged because “the Holy Prophet of Islam can never be picturised and those who have done it have committed blasphemy which is untolerable at any cost.” But they don’t stop at registering their objection to the film. They also issue an unmistakable threat: […]

Muslims enraged, demand ban of film glorifying Muhammad, threaten to murder filmmaker, filmmaking is un-Islamic

Jul 7, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

“Those who make a direct mistake on Mohammad Saheb, O dog will die.” The “mistake” here is a film that portrays Muhammad favorably. But even that is not acceptable. Islamic apologists insist that Muslims do not worship Muhammad, and to be sure, he is not considered a deity in Islamic theology, but the rage over […]

Atlanta: Muslim cleric says Muslims use violence to “take over the world,” as taught by Qur’an and Muhammad

Jun 2, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

Will Soleiman Hamed be investigated for inciting violence? Of course not. Would he be if he were anything but a Muslim, and a Muslim cleric at that? Of course. But no one is going to be so “Islamophobic” as to scrutinize what he is saying here, and no “moderate” spokesman is going to bother to […]

Ramadan: Month of Jihad

May 16, 2020 12:00 pm By Hesham Shehab

In the West, Ramadan is usually called a holy month (while in Arabic is called kareem — magnanimous), but the concept of Ramadan’s holiness has different meanings in Islam. Certainly, holiness expresses sanctity, peace, and reverence. But it is also the month of Jihad in Islam. No doubt, Ramadan is a blessed time for Muslim […]

Chicago: Muslim organization touts Muhammad’s directives as safeguard against coronavirus

May 8, 2020 1:00 pm By Darrell Pack

GainPeace, an enterprising Islamic organization in Chicago, has found a way to use coronavirus to promote Islam in the United States. The activist organization is a leading dawa (Islamic proselytizing) group that has placed billboards which sponsor a message from the prophet of Islam about health precautions. Excellent timing during the COVID-19 pandemic, but dangerously […]

Killing for Muhammad’s Honor: The Highest Expression of the Islamic Faith

Apr 18, 2020 3:00 pm By Darrell Pack

After 1400 years of Islam, many Muslims feel that Prophet’s Muhammad honor is part of their personal identity, and that any crticism directed at him encroaches on their honor. First, some review of past events: Theo van Gogh was murdered by a Dutch Muslim (in 2004), after producing a play that criticized Islam. The Danish […]

Nigeria: Muslim leader recommends Muhammad’s cure for coronavirus: black seed, honey, and the Qur’an

Apr 12, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

This kind of unscientific thinking endangers all those who take it seriously and everyone around them. Also, this literalism regarding Muhammad’s words suggests that the Sultan of Sokoto, a mainstream Muslim leader in Nigeria, has no problem with Muhammad’s exhortations to jihad violence against Infidels. “Sultan recommends black seed, honey for COVID-19 treatment,” by Sulaimon […]

The Hornet’s Nest of Muhammad’s Islam

Oct 28, 2019 11:00 am By Mateen Elass

Turkey’s recent illegal incursion into Syria has as its principal goal the extermination of Syrian Kurds, as well as the potential annexation of Syrian land to serve as a Kurdish-free buffer zone for the indefinite future. In the process of this attack on the Kurds, it is likely that, whether intentional or not, large numbers […]

Islam’s Inferiority Complex

Sep 23, 2019 8:00 am By Mateen Elass

Islam, since its very inception, has suffered from a serious inferiority complex. Muhammad as an aspiring prophet in his home city of Mecca labored for some twelve years to convince his fellow citizens that they should renounce polytheism and bow before the sovereign rule of Allah. By the time his tribe’s patience had run out […]

Netherlands: Muslim stabbed two tourists to “defend” Muhammad and Islam

Sep 4, 2019 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

“I was planning to kill unfair and cruel people, those who make it possible for the Prophet Mohammed to be insulted…I wanted to defend my religion and make it clear that my religion should be left alone. If you don’t do that, you should be prepared for these kind of actions.” This presents free societies […]

Islamic scholars from Saudi Arabia and Nigeria “have debunked insinuations that Islam breeds terrorism”

Aug 30, 2019 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

Well, this is a relief. Now we can all relax. I’m going bowling. Anybody want to come with? Also, what kind of progress have these Islamic scholars made in convincing Islamic jihadis that they are misunderstanding their peaceful religion? Reality: Muhammad said: “I have been made victorious through terror” (Bukhari 4:52.220). The Qur’an says: “Against […]

Myanmar: Muslim charges hate speech against pol who said if someone insulted Muhammad, “Muhammad will bomb them”

U Hla Swe said: “They [the US] can insult three out of four religions. But do they dare touch Muhammad? I doubt the US is that brave. If they do, Muhammad will bomb them with an airplane. They are afraid of that.” That’s what he is being sued for. U San Aung said: “As a […]

The Justification of Evil: Allah and Aymann Ismail

Jul 2, 2019 9:00 am By Mateen Elass

Andy Ngo describes himself on Patreon as “… an independent journalist and photographer dedicated to covering topics related to protests, free expression, and Islam.” He has been a frequent target of bullying for the militant left, as well as by Muslim activists. Last Saturday, while covering an un-permitted Antifa mob rally in Portland, Ngo faced […]

Sharia Netherlands: College suspends teacher for insulting Muhammad

Feb 26, 2019 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

“You said that Mohammed was married to an eight-year-old girl, and that in the Netherlands a grown man who marries a girl of eight is seen as a pedophile.” Strictly speaking, the teacher was wrong: Muhammad married Aisha when she was six, and consummated the marriage (i.e., raped her) when she was nine.

The Fantasy Islam of the University of Chicago’s Fred Donner (Part 2)

Jan 31, 2019 8:00 am By Stephen M. Kirby

In Part 1, we looked at Donner’s book Muhammad and the Believers at the Origins of Islam and saw that Donner’s premise of an ecumenical “Believers’ movement” founded by Muhammad was not supported by fact. In Part 2 we will look at more misinformation in Donner’s book. Five prayers a day was established after Muhammad’s […]
