So what does the Koran say?

Lets revisit “Banning the Burqa”, screened on SBS, Tuesday  the 21st of September

How can banning the burqa be such an affront to Islam if it isn’t required by the religion? How long can Muslims have it both ways?

No Straight Answers on the Burqa? (Andrew Bolt)

Earlier, Tim Blair posted on BAGFEST: Wearing their finest freedom sacks, the babes of Hizb ut-Tahrir are loud, proud and under a shroud:

Sheikh Shady al-Suleiman said Muslims loved Australia but rejected interference in the practice of their religion. ‘’Keep away from our affairs,’’ he said.

When your religion is in the main street, strolling about in Mohammed’s Snuggie and viewing the world through a mail slot, it’s not just your affair, mate. More from Ardati:

‘’We dress like this because it is the command of Allah, not any man.’’

There you go:  Allah commands, the believers have no choice. But at the same time they tell us ‘its their choice’ and we cannot tell people what to wear. Confusing indeed, especially for Australians who are unfamiliar with Allah’s duplicitous ways, because Allah is the best of schemers, (Koran 3:54)

To clear things up, I did check my Koran (King Fahd Academie translation) which is the most precise. Here’s what it says:

Sura 33, Al-azab, 59:

O prophet! Tell your wives (sic) and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils)all over their bodies (i.e. screen themselves completely except the eyes or one eye to see the way) that will be better……

Islamically correct one eye burqa

So then: the only question that remains is why the lies and why the denials?

The answer should be easy: Western useful idiots are demanding that we respect ‘their right’  to wear what they want. Indeed, what could be worse than Westerners telling Muslim women what to wear?

However, where the soldiers of Allah  have the upper hand, Muslim women have to chose between the freedom sack or else:

Chechnya forcing women to wear Islamic dress

It’s bitterly ironic how often we’re told that Muslim women in the West wear Islamic dress freely and proudly. Yet Islamic spokesmen in the West never seem to get around to addressing this kind of coercion.

Germany: using the Koran to reject insurance claim backfires….

Either way you lose, infidel:

‘Muslim Men Don’t Do Housework’

German Insurer Apologizes for Citing Koran to Refuse Claim

SPIEGEL

A German insurance company got into trouble for citing the Koran in its refusal to compensate a Muslim accident victim for the cost of hiring a maid. Muslim men leave the housework to their wives, a clerk for the Gothaer insurance firm argued. The company has apologized.

A Muslim immigrant in Germany who asked his insurance firm to cover the costs of a maid while he recovered from a serious accident had his claim rejected on the grounds that according to his religion, husbands don’t do the housework anyway.

The 79-year-old Algerian man had been seriously injured after being hit by a car and had already received a six-figure sum in damages from the Gothaer insurance company. When he filed an additional claim to cover the costs of running his household because he wasn’t healthy enough to do so himself, an insurance clerk responded by interpreting the Koran as placing the man above the woman.
In her letter, she wrote of Muslim marriage: “It can’t be assumed to resemble a German marriage. According to the patriarchical and traditional view of the man in the Muslim marriage, the husband doesn’t run the household.”

Beautiful: Lawsuit Against Islamic Headbanger in Basel

Koran 8:55 Shakir Surely the vilest of animals in Allah’s sight are those who disbelieve…

From PI:

The Junge SVP submitted  the charge because of racial discrimination and incitement  against the Imam of the mosque in Basel St. Johann, after he  quoted in a documentary from one of its lectures, broadcast on Swiss television. The Imam used a relevant Koranwort (Sure 8.55 -below the fold.)  If the complaint is successful, completely new legal possibilities would arise in dealing with Islam.

Multiculturalism works. Like a charm. For Muslims.

Fartwa for Sale. Any Buyers?

Fartwa’s and other Mohammedan BS:

“Koran says – you’re free in your religion” – Muslim cleric

Only multiculturalism can provide a peaceful atmosphere for mankind, and the first Islamic society created by Prophet Muhammad was multicultural, Dr Mohammed Tahir ul-Qadri told RT.

Speaking about his recently-issued religious ruling – a fatwa – which condemns terrorism and suicide bombings, Dr Tahir ul-Qadri also said “holy war” is the incorrect translation of jihad and Koran says that there should be freedom of religion.  Read more

The Koran also sez:

Qur’an:9:5: “Fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, take them captive, harass them, lie in wait and ambush them using every stratagem of war.”

3:85, If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Allah), never will it be accepted of him.

3:151
We will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve,

8:12, I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them

Only multiculturalism can provide a peaceful atmosphere for mankind, and the first Islamic society created by Prophet Muhammad was multicultural, Dr Mohammed Tahir ul-Qadri told RT.

Speaking about his recently-issued religious ruling – a fatwa – which condemns terrorism and suicide bombings, Dr Tahir ul-Qadri also said “holy war” is the incorrect translation of jihad and Koran says that there should be freedom of religion.

9:29, Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.

Take Your Fartwa & Shove It, Mufti!

Nobody, nobody should ever consider a fatwa.

Brian Whittaker in The Guardian(well, CiF, actually) is right.

The whole idea of waging “fatwa wars” with extremists is not only futile but anti-progressive and further entrenches the authoritarian tendencies in Islam. Issuing fatwas and promoting them, even in a good cause, is damaging because it ends up reinforcing the importance attached to fatwas in general.

In light of the above, and the evidence of 1400 years of jihad wars against the world, why is the Western media and those who are supposedly our leaders, so cowardly in calling their bluff?  Why is anyone wasting ink on this stupid, nonsensical 600 page fartwa from a Dr Mohammed Tahir ul-Qadri who is just doing his religious duty by misleading the kafirs until the soldiers of Allah have the numbers to overcome them?

Will the Ancient Quranic Manuscripts of Sana’a Spell the Downfall of Islam?

  • Here’s Hope. But will there be Change?  The Quranic claim that nobody can alter the words of God is just as fake as Islam itself.

THE SANA QURANS: PROOF THE KORAN IS A POORLY WRITTEN, TERRIBLY EDITED AND TOTALLY MISINFORMED BOOK, AND NOT THE REVELATION OF A PROPHET

H/T the Astute Bloggers:

The 1972 discovery of the earliest surviving Quranic manuscripts in the Great Mosque of Sana’a conclusively shows that the present Quran is different from the early manuscripts. It proves the Islamic claim—that the Quran is infallability, that it is Allah’s original revelation word by word, and that it is copy of the version kept in a tablet in heaven—outright false. Will this shocking find unravel the dawnfall of Islam?

“Respect for the faith of sincere believers cannot be allowed either to block or deflect the investigation of the historians… One must defend the rights of elementary historical methodology”.

— Maxime Rodhinson, 1981, p. 57

Sana'a mosque quran textsMuslims generally believe, thanks to Quranic assertions, that both the Old and New Testaments are corrupted and seriously changed. They say, for a Holy Scripture to be authoritative, it has to be preserved without any changes at all, and point to the Quran, which, they claim, has been preserved word by word and letter by letter, as was revealed to Muhammad by Allah. The Quran itself claims: ‘no change there can be in the words of God’ (10:64) and, ‘there is none that can alter the words (and decrees) of God’ (6:34).

But then how ridiculous the ‘doctrine of abrogation’ is, by which later revelations cancel previous ones, as Quran (2:106) confirms, ‘revelations… We abrogate or cause to be forgotten’. Also, a Hadith (6:558) from Sahih Bukhari confirms that Muhammad forgot many verses. Again Sunaan ibn Majah (3:1944) records that, after Muhammad’s death, some revelations were eaten up by a goat.

How divine words can be eaten, changed, cancelled or abolished, in spite of Allah’s specific claim in 10:64 and 6:34?

Are not all these claims of Allah self-contradictory?

Amazingly, these plain truths do not bother the Muslims at all. Probably, if we can present another “authentic” Quran, which is different from existing standard form, Muslims may give way to logical thinking.

CNN: Hired Muslim Shill Denies Wife-beating Verses in the Koran

*  Not for the first time. Its just amazing how eager the Western media is to propagate falsehoods like this. CNN along with the BBC are clearly totally infiltrated and have thus become tools for Islamic spin:

Guest commentary at CNN: “Nothing in Islam says you can(t) hit your wife”

black-eye1

Nothing. Not a thing. Except, well, Qur’an 4:34:

Men are in charge of women, because Allah hath made the one of them to excel the other, and because they spend of their property (for the support of women). So good women are the obedient, guarding in secret that which Allah hath guarded. As for those from whom ye fear rebellion, admonish them and banish them to beds apart, and scourge them. Then if they obey you, seek not a way against them. Lo! Allah is ever High, Exalted, Great.

In mainstream Islamic practice, the Qur’an is Allah’s own words, eternal, and direct — not simply inspired in its human transmitters who were influenced by their particular time and place. In the case of 4:34, this fact spells disaster for women’s rights in letter and in spirit: The text itself tells men to beat their wives. The fact that it is the third in multiple steps does not mitigate the fact that, after a man believes he has jumped through the appropriate hoops, the Qur’an says to hit your wife.

The Koran does not promise the Land of Israel to the Jews

* Newsflash: anti-semitic DRECK from Lousi Farraklan

A recurring source of false hope

* Update:  Fatwa no 36  Tundra Tabloids

Straight from the pages of the European Council for Fatwa and Research is this hum-dinger of a fatwa, that will ensure that the fight for “Muslim land” will continue until the end of time as we know it. That includes all of Jerusalem, all of Israel and the annihilation of the Jooozzzz…

swastika_koran-15

* Just in case you had any illusions about this: a scholarly article by Robert Spencer and Andrew Bostom, Jihad Watch:

Over the years many, many people have sent in articles stating that the Qur’an actually promises the Land of Israel to the Jews, and that therefore the claims of Hamas and Hizballah et al are illegitimate on Islamic grounds. It is a comforting message that Islamic spokesmen such as Khaleel Mohammed have taken to Jewish audiences all over, reinforcing in them the idea that the Islamic jihad imperative against Israel is simply the province of a Tiny Minority of Extremistsâ„¢ among Muslims, and that the voices of reason and moderation — and Qur’anic authenticity — will eventually prevail in the Islamic world.

The only problem with this is that it isn’t true, and is based on a partial and highly misleading reading of the Qur’an. It sounds great, it makes people feel better, but what good is that if it is based on falsehood? And what could be the goal of Muslim spokesmen who promote this perspective even though they know full well the totality of the Qur’an’s teaching on the Jews?

Here is the latest example of this wishful thinking and false hope: “What the Koran says about the land of Israel,” by Simon Rocker in The Jewish Chronicle, March 19

Did Muhammad Ever Really Live?

DISPUTE AMONG ISLAM SCHOLARS

* WoJ reported:

*  Islamic academic row in Germany heats up: Indoctrination to replace Free Scientific Inquiry?

*  German professor of Islam: “the task of a university is to conduct independent, open- ended research”– Muslims say “no can do”

* Newslink Cologne:

*  Islamofascists call anti-Islam protesters ‘Fascists’- Hijab brigades along with kaftan-wearing, bearded freaks join nutroots to attack police and protesters.

From SPIEGEL ONLINE

A number of Islamic associations have put a quick end to their collaboration with a professor — and trainer of people who are supposed to teach Islam in German high schools — who has expressed his doubt that Muhammad ever lived. Islam scholar Michael Marx spoke with SPIEGEL ONLINE about what lies behind the debate and the historical person of the Prophet.

* It seems that both, the interviewer and ‘Islam scholar’ Michael Marx don’t know what they’re talking about. The Koran is certainly no ‘Christian text’ and islam is not an ‘Abrahamic religion’. Islam is a mandate for open ended warfare to make the world Islamic, and that by any means. That includes genocide on the Jews. Islam doesn’t have the ‘Golden Rule’, and won’t accept it either. But other than that, read it and make up your own mind.
