IN protest of what it calls a religion “of the devil,” a nondenominational church in Gainesville, Florida, plans to host an “International Burn a Quran Day” on the ninth anniversary of the September 11, 2001, attacks.
The Dove World Outreach Center says it is hosting the event to remember 9/11 victims and take a stand against Islam. With promotions on its website and Facebook page, it invites Christians to burn the Muslim holy book at the church from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.
The Dove World Outreach Center, and its crazy pastor, Terry Jones
Pastor Terry Jones told CNN’s Rick Sanchez earlier this week:
We believe that Islam is of the devil, that it’s causing billions of people to go to hell, it is a deceptive religion.
He added:
It is a violent religion and that is proven many, many times.
Jones has written a book Islam is of the Devil, and the church sells coffee mugs and shirts featuring the phrase.
Jones, in one of his YouTube videos, asks:
… have you ever really seen a really happy Muslim? As they’re on the way to Mecca? As they gather together in the mosque on the floor? Does it look like a real religion of joy? No, to me it looks like a religion of the devil.
Muslims and many other Christians Â- including some evangelicals – are fighting the initiative.
The National Association of Evangelicals, America’s largest umbrella evangelical group, issued a statement urging the church to cancel the event, warning it could cause worldwide tension between the two religions.
The NAE calls on its members to cultivate relationships of trust and respect with our neighbors of other faiths. God created human beings in his image, and therefore all should be treated with dignity and respect.
Dove’s Facebook page, set up for the September event, has more than 1,600 fans. It says:
Eternal fire is the only destination the Quran can lead people to, so we want to put the Quran in it’s [sic] place – the fire.
Targeting another group it calls “godless,” the Dove center is also hosting a protest against Gainesville Mayor Craig Lowe, who is openly gay, on Monday at Gainesville’s City Hall. The group previously fought – unsuccessfully – to derail Lowe’s election campaign.
Meanwhile, the Islamic advocacy group Council on American-Islamic Relations called on Muslims and others to host “Share the Quran” dinners to educate the public during the month-long fast of Ramadan beginning in August. In a news release, the group announced a campaign to give out 100,000 copies of the Quran to local, state and national leaders.
Said CAIR spokesman Ibrahim Hooper:
American Muslims and other people of conscience should support positive educational efforts to prevent the spread of Islamophobia.

September is shaping up to be a fun month for we doGless!
Given that Muslims burn the American flag with impunity which for Americans is almost a sacred object, they shouldn’t be surprised if they have aroused some animosity.
Is the Koran responsible for 9/11?

Take note FBI, MI5 et al. Burning some copies of the Qur’an; now that is how you protect Westerners from Islamic terrorists.
You can check out the Dove World Outreach Center’s Wayne Sapp foaming about “the homos, the fags, the queers” here. Do you think one of these days we’ll find a fundie who, despite apparently being one of Jesus’ most devoted sunbeams, isn’t in need of a happy pill or six?

I always find it when the differn’t religions get in a pissing match over who is right and who is wrong and which one is violent and which ones are moneygrabbers/child abusers/ terrorist sympathisers etc when the ironic truth is that all religions are the same bullshit in a differn’t package.
somebody should point out to this guy that in order to be an “international” anything day you need a lot more than the crackpot congregation of some random church, though zealots are hardly renowned for their common sense are they?.

Reports that religion will end in around 2020 seems to be on the cards after all.
Why not have an international day top bring all faiths together to burn their Bibles, bring them back in to the reality of today..
It stinks of hitler though when he had books burned,so we dont want to go there.

wouldn’t it be better to just pulp the books and add the result to fertillizer? See ‘holy’ books do have a use lol……

“Dove World Outreach” sounds like some sort of baby animal daycare centre. They seem to have borrowed the inverse naming rule of nations; eg; the in ‘Super Fuzzy Democratic People’s Freedomland’ you just know you’ll get shot by a brainwashed orphan child soldier and fucking eaten by some cannibalistic general who thinks he’s Moses.
Still, there are people with legit reasons to protest religions and then there are stopped clock Religious Supremacists like these guys, so it’d be nice for them to fall in to the bornfire at their little klan jamboree too.
August 1st, 2010 at 4:44 pm
Great idea!! Burn some ‘holy’ books and let the rabble in some islam-possessed countries take it out on their religious minorities. Me being a pessimist, I wouldn’t be surprised if people are being short-listed already for the reckoning that will follow. If he wants to burn a quran, Islamabad is the place he should be doing it. And if he wants to see happy faces: try imagining a world without the burden of religion.
August 1st, 2010 at 4:44 pm
Funny as it might be to burn all of the holy books that we atheists despise, the association with Nazism is too strong to go unnoticed – it’d be terrible PR.

“association with Nazism is too strong to go unnoticed…”
It should be as they were Xtians of the best kind…..

Sounds very familiar…Wesboro–this guy–Pope Still-a-dick,

August 1st, 2010 at 5:48 pm
Could we not build holy book burning power stations? I would think there is enough printed shit to keep us in electricity for years, and as a bonus we wouldn’t need so much saudi oil. If I added “if anyone dosen’t like this then burn them as well” that would stink of nazism but, burning hate filled religious book which are offensive to sane people is just common sense. Whats wrong with that?
August 1st, 2010 at 7:07 pm
Why not take the holy books and recycle the paper to be copies of God is not great by christopher hitchens OR we could have them turned into copies of the zombie survival guide by max brooks, I’ve always wanted to do a prank where I disguise myself as one of those dudes who leaves bibles in hotel rooms but instead of the bible steal the bibles that are there and replace them with the zombie survival guide by max brooks

Christians have a long tradition of burning ‘heretical’ books,sometimes with their authors.The first Emperor of China ordered thousands of books burned,the Nazis were following others’ examples.
If we’re really lucky the Christians will burn all the Qurans and the Moslems will burn all the Bibles.
Broadsword,
I can’t agree to your idea of letting Moslem and Christian psychopaths at each others’ throats,the collateral damage would be enormous…if only we could.

I recognise that English is not everybody’s first language but I cannot extract any meaning from your post. The link you gave us is for a piece you’ve obviously written I think in support of Islam but I’m not sure.
What you must understand is that when you open an argument with the assertion “Quran says”, there is no argument. Your Necronomicon vs reason. Your mind is closed and is not receptive. Are you alive now because of science or Allah?

Sacrilege is the province of the religious. Despite the Koran being the second most tedious holy book in the world (after the Book of Morons) ritual burning is stupid.
Far better to round up the unused ones and turn them into something useful. I once read of a company that collected Gideon bibles from hotels to use them as insulation material.
August 2nd, 2010 at 10:48 pm
The reason i quote from Quran,because it tells us from 1430 yrs ago,that there will always be people that go against the words of Allah,and burning Quran is just an example of that .Therefore,we are not surprised about the church’s intention to burn Quran,since we are already told about it 1430 years ago.
To go back to your question.I say Iam alive because of Allah,Since He has created all the causes ( among these causes is science)to make me alive.
I appreciate your understanding of my poor English,and I suggest to make the debate more fair,I recommend to all of you to raise all your questions to native american moslem,and preferably be a scholar,like ex-reverend Yousuf Estes.He is found at the following site:www.islamtomorrow.com.
By the way, the word islam means peace in Arabic,The language of Quran,and i like to say here that what ever you see of terrorism in the name of islam is totally not part of islam whats so ever.
And my recommendation; if you want to know about islam,Please read Quran,understand it and then judge any moslem ( to see if he is truly moslem or not)
by the teachings of the Quran.

Hani

I will not go down to your level,iam only praying that God guide both of you to the right path,as HE did recently with one of the used to be worst enemy of islam,the German writer,Henryk Broder,who has just converted to islam after long years of fighting islam.
By the way if you burn the paper,no problem to us,since the the 600 page Quran has always been kept by heart among millions of moslems,across the world ,among them thousands of native wight americans.
So in order to burn the Quran You need to kill all moslems in the world,including some of your wight american moslem neighbors.
Advice:
In order to thing straight ,do that while you are not intoxicated.

I have no problem with them burning the Quran but I do think burning of any book is is a indefensible as infanticide
August 3rd, 2010 at 4:20 pm
May I add to this I think they should also burn the bible along with the Quaran..
August 3rd, 2010 at 9:11 pm
Book burning is not indefensible. It’s your property, go ahead and burn it, wipe your ass with it. The printer will just print another.
Burning other peoples books is indefensible.

I would like to ask non-muslims people some questions and I hope I get answers from them ,with quite and deacent words,
think about the century of Quraan , was it able to publish any books without penciles,typwriters, printers , airconditioners ,tables ,nice weather,computers,wow and stillas it is since 1430 year, its amazing ,
was it possible that prophet mohammed PBUH was not educated , write the quraan with lots of science and informations without reading and writting?
in our recent days if any person discovered a theory or phenomena he will go fast and publish it with his name , but our prophet mohammed PBUH , did not publish quraan for his name as he is the writer..so who is wrote the quraan words .?
if you look for the oldest write of quraan you could not read it cause it was written without dots and signs, but the oldest readers took the reading from our prophet mohammed through Allah and kept that readings inside there chests and learned others while without that no boudy can interpret the quraan words , the quraan without dots and signs was like codes , where no body can decode these words unless he is a reader of Quraan.
so please answer my questions?
who is wrote the quraan without dots and signs?
who could write these lots of informations in quraan in the past , in the desert where the temprature was reaching more then 50 degree .?
please answer

more than reason for Henryk Broder to convert to Islam , just read carefully .
Hamburg (VOA-islam.com): well-known German Jewish writer “Henryk Broder†announced a convert to Islam, after a long series of writings against Islam and Muslims.
Newspaper “Free Palestineâ€, stated that the veteran journalist Henryk Broder is a very popular magazine Der Spiegel in Germany, and author of best-selling book in Germany in 2007, entitled “Hey Europe .. you give up “and was awarded the German book that year.
Among the famous words before converting to Islam: “I do not want Europe to surrender to the Muslims, when the German Justice Ministry said it could only be the basis of Islamic Sharia law .. then the Europeans must make peace; Islamic ideology has become associated with hostility to the modern lifestyle and western Europe I advise young people to migrate, because Europe now will not remain so for more than twenty years .. Europe turned to Islam as a demographic .. We give his consent in a strange in response to actions of Islamic fundamentalists. “
Authors Broder “61 years†shouted when he announced to convert to Islam: “Let’s listen to that I had converted to Islam.â€
Islamic announcements as a result of internal conflicts that exciting in itself for many years in a discussion with a priest in Nyukuln Reza Mosque, where he explained that he felt relieved to finally be rid of the suppression of truth that he did with his limbs.
Return to the religion of nature:
She said when commenting on the question why he left his religion that he does not leave the religion but he returned to his Islamic religion which is all the whole human nature in which all people are born.
German writers have been saying two sentences creed in front of two witnesses and the name was changed to Henry Muhammad Brodeur, he said when commenting on this with pride: “I am now a member of the congregation whose numbers one billion three hundred million people around the world who constantly insulted and out of their reaction to such insults, and I am glad to be back home where I was born. “

no body can converts you as you are saying and no Islamofascist,if you looked for the address of the site you will find it FREETHINKERS , so it is not only for christians or jewish or even muslims , but the address of our talking subject concerned with the burning of our holybook , so I think that we have our right to reply or evven to think freely to reply ,
so my dear no body can converts you or even you can not convert others , but the truth will be the forever the right.

I think you, people, should not be trashing religions because a nut that only intention is to make profit and be on the media spot. I want to remind you who live in Christians countries, the freedom you enjoy is from laws with Christian principles, and it is enjoyed by everyone, Christians, herectics whatever you are. Before Jesus, the laws everywhere were most similar to the ones on sharia. Jesus warned his disciples: do not give your pearls to the pigs as they may crush them and turn against you. I want you to explain to me who create the universe and its law of functioning and the multitude of life springing from every millimeter of this planet.
August 18th, 2010 at 6:06 pm
To Tahir. The problem I see is that : without the dots and signs, it give way to many interpretations. If God gave the message it would be clear, so everyone could understand it. Allah is your father, isn’t He? However, we are not capable of understanding A Being of such magnitude. Maybe is he intention that you should live under sharia law, it protect you from living a sinful life, so prevalent on the Christian countries. Jesus said: to who much is given, much shall be asked in return. Christians only means of salvation is the sacrifice of Jesus. I am quite sure you will be saved too. Even if Mohammed was delusional, it is not your fault for being born under this religion. May God (Allah) bless you with much peace and wisdom.

newspaniard islam is against killng so where ever you got your little storry from take it back. yes we do talk about our religion and what poeple to join it but its thier choice at the end of the day. you see chirstians outside welcoming their religion but as soon as a muslim does it its a crime.

Religion can be the fragrance of humanity but not paradox. A militant act, though it claimed by a few as a religious act cannot be answered in a provocative way, if the responder wish to cover himself under a or another religion.
Pastor Terry Jones, probably knew his irritation disqualifies him to cause further betterment to humanity and thus he is admitting he is frustrated. I am not a muslim, nor a follower of christ but by all means I respect the in born feeling of a religion to identify the spirit behind human laws and living reasoning.
By burning Quran, just a book of paper he will be able to burn, but can never justify that burns the evil in the incident of sept 11, in which the total global humanity at once is concerned to end and eliminate such irrational roots.
September 9th, 2010 at 6:31 am
Terry Jone is a mad man. He could be suffering from acute brain damage. No sensible person with reasonable religious background would be taking heed of such a move. He could not understand the implication of such move, and must be a very lonely and isolated person!

Plan B wrap the quran in pig skin. Problem solved no book burning only protecting the book from earths elements! I remember a American Marine General who used pig skins to wrap things up. Do your history on th Barbery coast and the battle of tri-polie people. Pig skins work probably better than burning in this situation.
No one seems to be concerned about the offense of building a Muslim Mosque at ground zero. Why can we not all get along here!!!!!! It is like pre-school all over again: ” My dad is better than your Dad ” ” Oh yeah! Well my dad can do this ” Grow up and smell the roses.

RESPONSE TO PASTOR TERRY JONES.
Who is Pastor Terry Jones? A little is known of him as decadent old man allegedly caught in the recent crime of rape scourge in United States. He is obscured but he wants to be famous by committing more international crime of Qur’anic desecration. He raises the ire of 1.5 billion Muslims and American Christians like him incur divine wrath and displeasure by so doing burning the Muslim scripture the holy Qur’an the only living book which survive for over 12 centuries (now 14 hundred years) intact (RVC Bodley Page 236). I think the Dove World Church Outreach Centre has been prompted by the Jews to commit such blasphemy. The Jews are chosen treasures of nations whom God Favored to teach and guide mankind (Exodus 19:5-6) a kingdom of priests and holy nation. But if they do not do as ordains God, almighty promise to castigate them seven more times for their sins than gentiles (Leviticus 26:21). Probably program of Hitlerism is one of such punishments when six million Jews and Gypsies were incinerated by Nazis.
America, according to Jimmy Swaggart has 55 million drunkards and 25 million sodomites (homosexuals) and 7.8 million surplus women! A nation full of sin, filth and degradation. For this God punished American with terrible hurricane Katrina and cataclysmic incident of September 11! Are these punishments insufficient warnings? American security agents desecrated holy Qur’an in Guantanamo Bay in carribea and Abu Grev in Iraq. They wanted to evolve a new way of everlasting punishment i.e. burning the Qur’an which peradventure mark the beginning of an end to American’s military might, political glory and economic giancy. They will all vanish like mirage before the eyes of our time! Those Christian unyieldingly courageous to commit such an act, we invoke lord with his name “Ya Qahhar†nineteen times to give them no respite, to punish them with most deserving punishment – Ameen! Let Terry Jone and other Christians like him ask about Russian Peresteroika and decommunisation the nemesis of soviet agnosticism. Now similar Fate awaits America for threatening to burn the Qur’an. Burning Qur’an will fan the flame of religious hassle between muslims and Christians even sever their relation. The new Abraha Ashram, Pastor Terry Jones invites 300 million American Christians to destruction like Hitler to the Germans or Rev Jim Jones to Guyanan Christians. Today Christians are always itching for global confrontation remember the recent Danish Cartoon controversy in Europe which inflames the entire Muslim world. America a nation of 7 million Muslims and over 300 Juma’at mosques is now on the verge to deprive Muslims of their constitutionally granted religious rights to erect mosque at zero ground through persuasions and agitations even in he American senate! Burning the Qur’an is profane, sacrilegious, blasphemous and heinous sin which makes Anjem choudary, a Muslim radical to call for Jihad. We Muslims must exert to our outmost to move heaven and earth to protect our prophet, our book and our religion or else we may miss the bus and deserve censure for procrastination. While offering strands of reasons setting the Qur’an ablaze. The accurst scoundrel, pastor Terry Jones said that Muslims are terrorists. He is oblivious of the fact that his Christian American is a terrorist state says David Duke;
“We (Americans) support the Zionist state even though it tortures thousands of political prisoners in its Jails. American support enabled Israel to ethnically cleanse itself of 700,000 Palestinians……. Sharon Massacred 2000 people in Sabra and Shatila refugee camps in Lebanon. Americans are responsible for the destruction of 500,000 children in Iraq! We actually supported the terroristic activities of Osama Bin Laden against Soviets and Saddam against Iran and weapons and bombs to Muslim separatist terrorists in Kosovo against Yugoslav Christians and then we bombed Yugoslavian cities full of civilians when that county militarily attempted to suppress the revolt we encouragedâ€
(David Duke page 3 of 10)
Now American terrorism is expanded to Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Somalia all Muslim countries! The prophet of Islam fought only 9 wars out of 27 military expeditions he ventured and only 250 unbelievers were killed. But U.S. in Iraq alone destroyed over one million Iraqis at cost of 1 trillion dollars! And why not Euro-American conventional forces strike terrorist organizations like IRA in Britain, ETA in Spain, Tamil Tigers in Sri-Lanka, Maoist rebels in Nepal and Ku Klux Klan in USA but only Al-Qaeda? US Obama calls Qur’an burning ceremony “a recruitment bonanza for Al-Qaeda. We are not fighting any religion but Al-Qaeda†he says. To me terrorism is a label just like the erstwhile anti-Semite by which jewish and Christian terrorisms were cloaked. I perceive terrorism as not dancing to the tune of new-Liberalism. And Japanese not Muslims are the key founders of modern terror by Kamikaze when air crafts were Laden with powerful explosives and detonative devices driven swiftly and deliberately crashed against the targets during the second world war.
Among the host of others in terror were Napoleon, Mao Zedong, Hitler, Bush, Stalin, Sharon, Reagan and Blair. The Dutch and U.S. politicians were terrorists by their remarks; “Geert Wilders called on Wednesday for a ban on the Muslim holy book the Koran, and Tancredo, a Republican member of congress from Colorado, last month suggested bombing Mecca if Muslims attacked the United States with nuclear weapons†(Trust International 11/08/2007 page 49).
Similarly, Muslim are neither like Nazis, fascists nor like communists who promote political assassinations and massacres. Contrarily were 7000 Muslim men massacred and 20,000 Muslim women raped, burned and killed in Bosnia Herzegovina and more thousands in Kosovo. Muslims never kill Christians save for self-defense. Rather Christians kill Christians e.g. by Theodora’s Confession, the wife of emperor Teokyil, 20,000 Christians were murdered by crucifixion, strangulation, and impalement. During the 200 years crusading expeditions (1096 – 1271 AD), the number of Christians killed by Christians was 2000, 000 (two million). When priests Jones and Jerome were burned alive, the subsequent combats yielded the slaughter of 50,000 (fifty thousand) Christians. The Luther’s controversial statement belying Eucharist and baptism and the massacre of St Bartholomew and all that in Ireland caused the death toll of over 3000,000 (three million) Christians by Christians. The ecclesiastical societies called “Inquisition†killed, crucified, guillotined and burned to death. 5000,000 (five million) Christians. As for the aborigines killed in the name of Christianity in America, the Bishop of Lascas stated that they were 12,000,000 (twelve million) in number! You see Muslims were not responsible for this Christian hecatomb of 22, 70,000 (twenty two million seventy thousand) people. The slanderous pastor Terry Jones continued to reason that wherever Islam gains political power. Christians are forced to convert. But I want to tell Pastor Something very clear that Egypt was ruled by Muslims 1,400 years ago but later the British came and today there are twenty million Coptic Christians in Egypt. Spain was ruled by Muslims 750 years ago and by crusade launched by pope urban II Christians took over Spain (Andalus and Cordova). Muslims ruled India 1000 Years ago but later British colonized India. Even today in India the Biswanath mandir at Benares and Bishnupad mandir at Gaya were built and maintained by income generated from “Nawabs†(Muslim rulers in India).
In the reign of Caliph Harun Rashid there were 11,000 churches and hundreds of synagogues in Muslim fiefdom and not a single of them was pulled down by Muslim authorities! In Lebanon which is Muslim a nation today there are one million maronite Christians. If Islam is a religion of Coercion, not a single Christian will be found in such Muslim states. This is a testimony even from the Christian giants of literature themselves;
“The picture of the Muslim soldier advancing with a sword in one hand and the Koran in the other is quite false†(A.S. Tritton, Islam, London 1951 page 21).
“ History makes it clear, however, that the legend of fanatical Muslims sweeping through the world and forcing Islam at point of the sword upon conquered races is one of the most fantastically absurd myths that historian have ever repeatedâ€
(De Lacy O’Leary, Islam at the crossroads, London 1923, Page
Even Africa the only continent where religion is practiced in full from the Gulf of Guinea to the Coast of Mozanbique there is no history of sword conquering the continent. The Tran-Saharan Traders did the job and achieved the miracle of conversion.
Pastor Terry Jones also wrote inflammatory book “Islam is of the Devil†and from 1800 to 1950, Christian Polemicists haven written 60,000 books against Islam. The rejoinder is simple. It is not Islam of the Devil but “Christianity is Fiendish†because the Lord and God of Christians and Christianity is being tempted by the Devil (Mathew 4:1,5,8,) and the greatest Disciple of Christ and Patron of all Christians i.e. St Peter (John 21:15-17) is himself a Devil (Mathew 16:23) and a sinner (Luke 5:8), a hypocrite (Galatians 2:11-13) and one to be disowned by Jesus in heaven (Mark 14:27-30,66,72 and Matthew 10:33).
Again the Pastor reasoned that Islam is a danger without calling to mind statements made by eminent scholars of Christianity about the Bible and Christian faith which purports to prove that Christianity is a jungle religion;
“I gradually came to disbelieve in Christianity as a divine revelation. This disbelief crept over me at a very slow rate but at last was completeâ€
Charles R Darwin (Plain Truth magazine march 1987 page 4).
“The Bible is not the totality of God’s word†(understanding the Greek Orthodox Church†by Demetrios constantelos. Page 17)
“Bible is the Most Dangerous book on earth. Keep it under lock and key. Keep the bible out of your children’s reach†George Bernard Shaw.
“I have also been reading the old testament, a most blood thirsty and Dangerous Book for the young. Jehovah is be beyond a doubt the worst character in Fiction (Bible)â€
Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869 – 1933) American Poet.
“The Bible has noble poetry in it, and some clever fables, and some blood-drenched history; and some good morals and a wealth of obscenity and upwards of a thousand liesâ€
Mark Twain (1835-1910) American writer
“There is no such thing as Eucharist or uniting with God and baptism is a lieâ€
Martin Luther
“I do not look at Bible as the word of Godâ€
Erich Fromm – American Psychologist (1900-1980)
Infact Bible is a tissue of absurdity and confusion as infers Christian scholars.
Pastor Terry says deep in Islamic Culture and teaching means fear and hatred of the west. How can a Muslim who is an acme of moral perfection follow western Modus vivendi?
“Islam is the only major monotheistic religion in the world that offers its adherents an entire way of life including a political system and a unique body of law. The failure of the west to understand the political nature of Islamism has been behind our general failure to understand Islamâ€
(John MC Cormick U.S. professor of political Science, Indiana in his Comparative politics in Transition Page 14).
Muslims have Ideal way of life. How can they play ape on Western Civilization? Between Islam and the West is a clash of civilization;
“Today Islam and the modern western world confront and challenge each other. No other major religion poses such a challenge to the west. Not Christianity which is part of western world and which has been eating up from within by the acids of the modernity. Not Hinduism and Buddhism because their tradition to the west has been and is on high eternal plane. And not Judaism which is too small and tribal a faith. No guru, swami, no lama , no rabbi has had any (exerted) impacts on the west comparable to that exerted by the Caliphâ€
The Birth of a Godless society page 39 by Nuruddeen Fashola.
The pastor further reasoned that he would not allow Islam to grow in America unopposed. To hell with his decision because the promise of God stands true and must come to pass no matter of circumstance or condition;
“It is he who has sent his messenger with guidance and religion of truth to cause it prevail over all religions (Hinduism, Judaism, Buddhism, Jainism or Christianity, Capitalism or Communism). And enough for a witness ( to this promise) is Allahâ€
Holy Qur’an 48:28
Islam must supersede, excel and surpass all civilizations it be Euro-American model of neo-liberalism or Capitalism. Islam must penetrate all societies and subdue their religion, civilization,, and Cultures. That’s Promise binding upon Almighty! We are now witnessing the onset of the promise as Islam is the fastest growing religion today in all our continents, Rev Bosworth Smith said;
“If any religion has a chance of conquering England Nay Europe within next hundred years, that religion is Islamâ€.
Islam today grows exponentially like wildfires in Britain, Nepal, America, Australia, Canada and Scandinavia. From 1934-1984,
Christianity increases by 138 percent while Islam augments by 235 percent (world Almanac and Book of facts 1935 and the readers Digest Almanac and year book 1983 by keith W Stump).
“There are over 900 million Muslims in the world (today 1.5 billion) making Islam second only to the Roman Catholic Church in numbers (now it outnumber Catholics). It (Islam) is perhaps the fastest growing major religion in the world, with and expanding Muslim movement in Africa and the Western world “
(Mankind’s Search for God page 284-85)
Pastor Terry Jones claimed that Qur’an was compiled and standardized some 120 years after the demise of holy prophet. Alas! The Qur’an began to be compiled during the first Caliphate of Abubakar (R.A.) less than a year after the prophet’s departure the circumstance of the battle of Yamamah. But the Bible was recorded some 350 years after Christ. What a wider interval of time between the master’s departure and the recording of his words of revelation?
Qur’an Prophecy of September 11
For the past 1400 years the book revealed to prophet Muhammad (PBUH), the holy Qur’an, Prophesied the episode of September 11 almost verbatim, a prophecy historically proved. When Nostradamus prophesied September 11 in 16th century people were shocked to witness its happening in 2001. But for how long will Mankind remain dumbfounded that Muhammad, the unlettered prophet presaged the American tragedy for the last 1400 years (Since 7th century) can one guess it not from any literary genius?
Amazing Discovery
The incident of September 11 was mentioned in section 11 chapter 9 verses 108-109 of the holy Qur’an. This 9 really tallies with the month of the event i-e the September (9th month of the year). Now the chapter is the 9th chapter of the holy Qur’an. This is the 9th month of the year. The chapter is found in section 11 of the holy Qur’an which virtually coincides with the day of the event i-e 11th. If you count the number of Arabic words from the beginning of chapter to verse 108-109, you will enumerate two thousand and one words only i-e 2001 which really tallies with the year of the event (2001). The verses describing the event were situated at numbers 108-109 which are really the address numbers of the twin towers i-e the address number of the first tower was 108 and that of the second tower was 109. The name of the street where the building of the twin skyscrapers was located was “Jorf Harr†which is vividly mentioned in verse 109 of the chapter!
Terry Jones said that “may be Muhammad never existed.†This his statement is reversed by Christian luminaries of highest esteem;
“Four years after the death of Justinian, AD 569, was born a Mecca, in Arabia the man who, of all men exercised the greatest influence upon the human race, Muhammad.â€
(John Willian Draper, A History of the Intellectual Development of Europe, London 1875, Vol. 1 PP. 329-330).
“In little more than a year he was actually the spiritual, nominal and temporal ruler of Medina, with his hands on the lever that was to shake the worldâ€
(John Austin, “Muhammad the Prophet of Allah†in T.P’s and Cassel’s weekly for 24th September 1927).
The pastor moreover said that Qur’an is human in origin, a concoction of old and new teachings. Again let Christian men of literary authority refute pastor’s claim “Well then, if the Koran were his own composition other men (like pastor Terry Jones) could rival it. Let them produce ten Verses like it. If the could not, the let them accept the Koran as an outstanding evidential miracleâ€
(H.A..R. Gibb, Mohammedanism, London 1953, P. 33)
“In little more than a year he was actually the spiritual, nominal and temporal ruler of Medina, with his hands on the lever that was to shake the worldâ€
(Justin Austin, “Muhammad the Prophet of Allah†in T.P’s and Cassel’s Weekly for 24th September 1927)
“So there has been no opportunity for any forgery or pious fraud in the Koran, which distinguishes it from almost all other important religions works of ancient time….â€
(Basanta Coomar Base, Mohammedanism, Calcutta 1931, P. 4).
“The word (Koran) of such man Muhammad is a voice direct from natures own heart men do and must listen to that, as to nothing else, all else is a wind in comparisonâ€
(Heroes and Hero worship by Thomas Carlyle P. 71)
The decadent pastor Terry Jones said that “Muhammad’s life and message cannot be respected and that he was corrupted by power and worldly ambitions.†These claims of the pastor are confuted again by other giants of literary world who analyzed in depth Muhammad’s extreme modesty, altruism, and multiple magnificent roles which touches every department of human activities;
Read the Historical Giants:
“To my mind, any doubt about Muhammad’s sincerity can be attributed to either ignorance or prejudiceâ€
(RC Zeacher “An essay in religious comparison page 153)
“Particularly praiseworthy were Muhammad’s modesty and the simple way of life he led in Madina, living in an ordinary house and always accessible to any of his peoplesâ€.
(Caxton’s Encyclopedia page 4236)
“The good sense of Muhammad despised the pomp of royalty, The apostle of God submitted to the menial offices of the family. He kindled the fire, swept the floor milked the ewes, and mended with his own hands his shoes and his woolen garment he observed without Varity, the abstemious diet of an Arab. Muhammad was distinguished by the beauty of his person his piercing eye, his gracious smile, his flowing beard, his countenance that painted every sensation of the soul, and his gestures that enforced each expression of the tongue. In similar offices of life he scrupulously adhered to the grave and ceremonious politeness of his country: his respectful attention to the rich and powerful was dignified by his condescension and affability to the poorest citizens of Mecca: and the habits of courtesy were imputed to personal friendship or universal benevolence. His memory, was capacious and retentive, his wit easy and social, his imagination sublime his judgment clear, rapid and decisive, He possessed the courage both of thought and action, and although his design might expand with his success, the first idea which he entertained of his divine mission bears the stamp of an original and superior geniusâ€.
(Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire by Gibbon Pages 245, 228-29)
“Philosopher, Orator, Apostle, Legislator, Warrior, Conqueror of ideas, the Restorer of Rational Beliefs, of a cult without images, the founder of twenty Terrestrial Empires and of one spiritual Empire, that is Muhammad. As regards all standards (roles) by which human greatness may be measured, we may well ask, Is there any man greater he?â€
(Lamartine, Historie De la Turquie, Paris 1854, vol 11 page 276-277).
“Muhammad, was responsible for both the theology of Islam and its main ethical and moral principles (roles)….. He was the only man in history who was supremely successful on both the religious and secular levelsâ€
(Michael H. Hart 1978, in his book – “The 100†pages 33,38,39)
Further about prophet’s assorted role models, read “Muhammad the Prophet of Islam†by professor RamakrishnaRao of the Department of Hindu Philosophy in India.
Terry Jones and other Christians asks –How can Muhammad deny crucifixion that preceded him some 600 years ago? The answer is that how can Jesus give testimony about prophets that preceded him say Abraham about 2,000 years Bc and Moses some 1400 years Bc? Again why could Muhammad fail to deny crucifixion and divinity of Jesus when the holy Bible itself refutes Christ being crucified on the cross (Vide Acts of the Apostles 1:3, John 19:34, 20:17, Luke 24:23,39,42,43, Mark 16:11) and repudiates his divinity (Vide Mark 10:18, John 14:1, Matthew 2:1, 4:5,8,10, 8:10, 24, John 20:17, 11:35, Luke 2:21, 3:23, 2:48, Mark 11:12, Revelation 1:1, Mark 15:37). Prophet Muhammad (Peace and blessings of God repose with him) came only to confirm former prophecies by completing their teachings which scriptures so faithfully testify.
The Dire Warning
“Have you not seen (O Muhammad) How your Lord dealt with the companions of the Elephants?
Did he not foil their treacherous scheme?
And He sent against them flights of Birds (Ornithic Hosts).
Which pelted them with stones of baked clay. And rendered them as stubble devoured by cattle.â€
Holy Qur’an 105 1-5.
The above chapter of the holy Qur’an narrates the terrible incident of the miraculous destruction of Abraha Ashram the then Abyssinian (Christian) viceroy in Yemen in 570 AD who led a big expedition with 40,000 elephants, the biggest of them being “Mahmut†to destroy the sacred Ka’aba. This took place some 52 days to the posthumous birth of the eternal light, Muhammad Bin Abdullah. By miracle, the Elephantry was Utterly devastated by Ornithic Hosts. This is a dire warning to any would-be iconoclast threatening burning Muslim Qur’an in Florida. It is the question of destiny or destruction? The American destiny is for its impending perdition bearing in mind the current California inferno Sequel to their programme on 12/08/2010 Captioned “Gay Rights Around the World†when in San Francisco, California gay right activists protested to be given constitutional right to have same sex marriage in united states. Today the U.S. army is bisexualised with 66,000 homosexuals and lesbians! Gay and Lesbian coalitions today mushroomed all over the world than ever. In Netherlands alone, there are 60 Gay and Lesbian coalitions spanning over the country. Now they expand their networks in Canada, Italy, USA, Argentina, Germany, France, Belgium and South Africa to name few! America today finance $500,000 peace policy in the Middle East which will only have placebo effect to the scars of war resounding in Palestine. To my view it is nothing but an indirect support to Israeli economy in pretence of peace and Reconciliation in the Middle East.
The west is behind all our spiritual miseries. Remember Satanic Salman insulted our noble prophet, Danish Cartoon ridiculed our noble prophet, America desecrated our holy book and now an American threatens to burn it. You the west founded Islamophobia and now a Christian American Qur’anophobia. By God enough is enough! Either stop it completely or face destiny for destruction.
“We have, without doubt, sent down the message, and we will assuredly guard it (from corruption of desecration)â€
