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

The Fantasy Islam of Rice University’s Craig Considine (Part 3)

Dec 3, 2020 11:00 am By Stephen M. Kirby 6 Comments

In this final part we will look a little further into Considine’s Fantasy Islam, and then my concluding remarks. Muhammad did not condemn Christians to hellfire or call them inferior On p. 113 Considine wrote: …Muhammad did not condemn Christians to the eternal hellfire. Nor did the Prophet think that Christians are inferior people who […]

The Fantasy Islam of Rice University’s Craig Considine (Part 2)

Dec 2, 2020 1:00 pm By Stephen M. Kirby 18 Comments

Let’s continue examining the creativity of Considine’s Fantasy Islam. Muhammad’s Farewell Sermon On p. 61 Considine lauded Muhammad’s Farewell Sermon as an example of Muhammad’s belief in racial equality: The Farewell Sermon (see Appendix 2) of Muhammad…is another noteworthy manifestation of the Prophet’s stance on anti-racism. He stated in the sermon: “…a white person has […]

According to the university’s website, it “is ranked among the nation’s top 20 universities by U.S. News & World Report.”[1] In July 2020 Considine’s new book, The Humanity of Muhammad: A Christian View, was published.

‘The general spirit of Qur’an is to extend one’s compassion and mercy to all men and women inhabitating the planet’

Nov 30, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer 19 Comments

Ashraf Amin writes this about Muhammad: “When he was stoned, taunted in the streets of Taif, he instead of cursing the wicked, prayed to Allah that their progeny may accept the message and meaning of Islam.” He is not telling the whole story. Islam mandates death for non-Muslim subjects of the Islamic state who mention […]

Muslim cleric: ‘All forms of violence and terrorism are against the refined ethics that are propagated by Islam’

Nov 30, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 12 Comments

Murtadha Muhammad Gusau is the Chief Imam of Nagazi-Uvete Jumu’ah and the late Alhaji Abdur-Rahman Okene’s Mosques, Okene, Kogi State, Nigeria. Here he offers yet another Islamic condemnation of terrorism that falls short of its sweeping claims, but will no doubt fool many nevertheless. Comments interspersed below. “There’s No Violence, No Terrorism In Islam,” by […]

OIC stresses need to counter terrorism and ‘Islamophobia,’ says Islam has nothing to do with terrorism

Nov 30, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer 20 Comments

They have to keep insisting that there is no link between Islam and terrorism because terrorists so frequently link the two. In any case, remember this the next time you hear that the OIC condemns terrorism. They very clearly are not referring to jihad terrorism, as they’re assuming that jihad activity is not terrorism at […]

The Iowa Law Enforcement Academy Meets Fantasy Islam

Nov 17, 2020 7:00 pm By Stephen M. Kirby 16 Comments

According to its website, The Iowa Law Enforcement Academy (ILEA) was created by an act of the Iowa legislature in 1967 with its purpose being to upgrade law enforcement to professional status. The specific goals were to maximize training opportunities for law enforcement officers…[1] In furtherance of this training goal, on November 9-10, 2020 the […]

Muslim author: ‘It is mistakenly believed that Islam prescribes capital punishment for those who commit blasphemy’

Nov 10, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer 14 Comments

These presentations to Western non-Muslims about how Islam really doesn’t sanction whatever abominable behavior was just committed in the name of Islam are uniformly dishonest, and designed to foster complacency in readers. Islam mandates death for non-Muslim subjects of the Islamic state who mention “something impermissible about Allah, the Prophet (Allah bless him and give […]

Gulf News: ‘Terrorism is most offensive to the Prophet and Islam’

Nov 10, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer 18 Comments

I’d be happy to jump on board with this, but these presentations are always so dishonest. If they would bother to explain passages such as these, then they might have a case. But the problem is not that I am not convinced. The problem is that many Muslims are are aware of these passages and […]

Was Muhammad Really the ‘First Anti-Racist in Human History’?

Oct 23, 2020 2:00 pm By Stephen M. Kirby 57 Comments

 In June 2020, Dr. Craig Considine, a Lecturer in the Department of Sociology at Rice University, produced a video titled “Who Is the First Anti-Racist in Human History?”  In this video Considine identified Muhammad as that “First Anti-Racist.”  Considine noted: Arguably, Prophet Muhammad was the first person in human history to declare, in no […]

Rushdie rejects Cat Stevens’ claim that he was ‘framed’ when he endorsed Rushdie’s death fatwa for blasphemy

Oct 5, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 74 Comments

Note the dishonesty. “Islam subsequently clarified that he was not condoning the killing of Rushdie but simply stating that, in the Koran, blasphemy is punishable by death.” That was then. Now his lawyers have issued a statement that says: “Regardless of the interpretation that was put on his statements in 1989, he does not support […]

Al-Azhar grand imam denounces use of term ‘Islamic terrorism,’ says it’s offensive to Islam

Oct 3, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer 35 Comments

Reality: Muhammad said: “I have been made victorious through terror” (Bukhari 4:52.220). The Qur’an says: “Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into the hearts of the enemies of Allah and your enemies…” (8:60) “When your Lord was revealing to the angels, ‘I […]

Muslim Council of Britain condemns reporting of jihadis screaming ‘Allahu akbar’ for ‘implying’ Islamic motive

Aug 28, 2020 1:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

“The Muslim Council of Britain’s Centre for Media Monitoring (CfMM) has claimed that British media has placed a ‘disproportionate focus’ on Islamic terrorist attacks and that headlines containing the Jihadi war-cry ‘Allahu Akbar’ are misleading as they claim it falsely links terrorism with the Islamic faith.” The CfMM also seemed to suggest that reporting about […]

California: Muslim Brotherhood-linked group runs billboards aggravating racial tensions

Aug 2, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

The Islamic Circle of North America is here perpetuating the destructive and incendiary myth that racist killings by police are a common phenomenon in the U.S. These billboards will only sow more strife. The Islamic Circle of North America: “ICNA has close ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, the ideological forebear of all radical Islamic movements […]

Islam is Not a Peaceful Religion: A Rebuttal of Mehdi Hasan (Part 2)

Jul 29, 2020 3:00 pm By Isaac Marshall

 We continue at a point where Mehdi Hasan discusses campaigning against Islamic terrorism in the name of Islam, which is irrelevant if such campaigning goes against Islamic teaching. Mehdi claims that Sharia is entirely subjective but if something goes against the express will of Allah, which Mehdi Hasan already has many times in this […]

Islam is Not a Peaceful Religion: A Rebuttal of Mehdi Hasan (Part 1)

Jul 28, 2020 11:00 am By Isaac Marshall

The most popular defence of Islam that can be seen on YouTube today is by Mehdi Hasan in his Oxford Union debate on the topic ‘Is Islam a peaceful religion?’ Mehdi Hasan is one of the most arrogant Islamic apologists seen today, but don’t expect to see anything actually linked to Islam (by Mehdi’s own […]

Aisha, Muhammad’s Child Bride: A Rebuttal of Lesley Hazleton

Jul 23, 2020 11:00 am By Isaac Marshall

 ‘Quick-witted’, ‘tart tongued’, ‘daring’, ‘headstrong’ and ‘assertive’ are not five phrases I would immediately attribute to Aisha when I hear them. What springs to mind is rather ‘prepubescent child-bride’; the authority for this assertion consists of multiple Islamic sources rather than speculative, cringeworthy platitudes. This is the issue we face when dissecting one of […]

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 […]

National Review claims that jihadis’ ‘conception of Islam relies on a flawed reading of the Koran’

Jul 16, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Maybe it’s something in the water over at National Review. The magazine claims to be conservative, and to be dedicated to upholding the values of Western civilization. Sometimes it lives up to that. Often it is sensible. More often, however, it is weak, cowardly, and submissive to the Left. And sometimes it is so far […]
