A friendly reminder via The violent Quran | Dispatch International. By Peter Nilsson
The Quran does not have a single verse
encouraging love towards those outside of Islam. But there are 493
passages that either endorse violence or talk about the hatred of Allah
for the infidels, meaning all non-Muslims. The Quran is a book mainly
concerned with how Muslims are to think and act towards those outside of
Islam; that is, either kill them or force them to live as second-class
citizens and pay taxes (Jizya). More than half the contents of the Quran
are texts despising or inciting against non-Muslims. This is what turns
Islam into a religion of hate and violence, for which history carries
much evidence.
Those criticizing Islam are branded with
epithets such as “Islamophobe”, “racist” or “right-wing extremist”. A
phobia is an unjustified fear of something. Criticizing Islam does not
constitute a phobia, but rather a very much justified activity, bearing
in mind the content of the above-mentioned scripture, as well as current
events in Muslim countries as well as in the Western world. Islam is
not merely a religion, it is also a totalitarian theological and
political ideology, according to which everything has to be subject to
the Quran and the Shariah. It denies fundamental human rights such as
freedom of religion, freedom of expression and equal rights for women.
The Cairo Declaration on Human Rights in Islam is a United Nations
“Regional instrument” that may be applied as alternative to the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights. This declaration, signed by all
57 members of the OIC, clearly stipulates that human rights are subject
to Shariah and interpreted according to it.
