AD 680 -- Husain, the prophet Mohammed’s youngest (and only surviving) grandson is beheaded near the modern day city of Karbala Iraq. Husain and his hysterical wives and children were not the first victims of Muslim terror and slavery!

The origins of Islamic
terror and slavery
Several times over the past decade, the non-Muslim world witnessed shocking newspaper images or televised video of beheadings done in the name of Islam. Where did this primitive brand of religion-sanctioned murder come from? And are these killings isolated events, or should they be viewed as part of a bigger picture; something ancient; something evil, something that could ultimately threaten destruction to the entire civilized world?
Today, in the 21st century, approximately 1.6 billion followers practice the Muslim faith, making Islam the second-largest religion on earth. In the opinion of the author, the majority of Muslims are gentle, law-abiding people who combine religious piety with acts of tolerance, moderation, compassion, and most of all -- common sense.
There are moderate Muslims; more in keeping with the original beliefs of Islam, the ones that were practiced when Mohammed and his first wife, Khadija the Pure, (a woman who was influential, charismatic, and extremely talented as well as Mohammed's only wife for the entire 24 years they were married), lived with a small and peaceful band of voluntarily impoverished followers in the pagan city of Mecca. Unfortunately, moderate Muslims are not the ones you hear about on the evening news. In the 21st century, the Muslim population has swelled to record proportions, thereby making Islam's militant component all the more numerous and menacing. In the same period, the number of people held in slavery throughout the world has also grown to unprecedented numbers. Catholics and Protestants and Jews living in Europe, the British Commonwealth, or the American continents are largely unaware of it, but Islam has played a long and brutal role in the immense human tragedy known as slavery.

The Pox of Mohammed. . .an action-packed love story set in the 21st century that uses the literary medium of contemporary fiction, in combination with Muslim traditions and authenticated events from history, to revisit past events from Islam, including the taboo Muslim topic: What killed the prophet of Islam?
Muslim tradition admits Mohammed did not die a peaceful death. In fact, the fiery pox that ended his life might be evidence of something more sinister and shameful.

Sanctioned Muslim slavery began sometime around AD 622 -- the same era in which sanctioned Islamic terror made its debut. The timing of these twin tragedies was not a coincidence, and the identity of the person who played a key role in introducing these two events may surprise you.
The following is an abbreviated compendium of research author and historian Dane Dahl conducted on these triplet topics: Islam, terrorism, and human slavery, while preparing to write the contemporary fiction novel, The Pox of Mohammed.
The material in this online article is offered for purposes of comment, criticism, research, and teaching. The author hopes this website will promote greater understanding of the contradictory origins of Islam; contradictory origins that result in a schizophrenic personality (sometimes compassionate and gentle, and then suddenly and without warning, homicidal and cruel.). The Muslim world has displayed this split personality to the rest of humanity for thirteen centuries.
Is this the word of God?
For almost fourteen hundred years Muslims have proclaimed the Koran to be a divine gift to mankind. . . In fact, Muslims regard the Quran as the main miracle of Muhammad, the proof of his prophethood." (Islam, a guide for Jews and Christians, F. E. Peters, 2003) -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quran
Is this true? Is the Koran a miracle, or is it something else -- something very different? The following is a compendium of the author's research; read it and decide for yourself. (Then, if you want more information, read The Pox of Mohammed).
Author Dane Dahl has joined the ranks of historians who believe the original Muslim faith began as a persecuted sect of Christianity! He also believes the first and real prophet of Islam was someone other than Mohammed -- and that person was eventually erased from the Koran! This article offers insight into the early phases of Islam, as well as the identity of the little-known personality who helped form the religion, and then because the selfish and evil actions of later Islamic rulers who benefitted from such deception, that influential personality was largely erased from history. In so doing, this composition discusses the pivotal role played by the now-extinct Ebionite Christian church in the earliest development of the Muslim religion.
Fourteen centuries ago, Muslims believe God (Allah) gave the Koran to their prophet in a series of revelations. As such, Muslims believe the Koran to be the literal words of God: perfect, unflawed, and eternal, the ultimate guidebook for all of humanity. However... everything Muslims believe about the Koran is not historically correct. The following paragraphs illustrate some glaring examples:
1. The earliest versions of the written Koran were not penned by the hand of God -- using a perfect, eternal form of writing. Rather, mortal and imperfect men wrote these verses. Almost immediately, confusion resulted because of discrepancies each individual author scribed into the prophet's teachings. With the passage of time, this confusion mushroomed into a crisis because these ancient authors utilized the primitive form of Arabic writing that existed at the time of early Islam. This archaic form of Arabic writing contained only six indeterminate letters to identify a whopping twenty six different sounds.
Christoph Luxenberg, a contemporary scholar of ancient Semitic languages tells us: "The Arabic alphabet used in the Qu'ran began as a shorthand ... not intended as a complete key to the sounds of the language." http://syrcom.cua.edu/Hugoye/Vol6No1/HV6N1PRPhenixHorn.html
On the origins of the written Koran, another website says: "... there was no way of distinguishing between consonants ... and there was no way of indicating which vowels were to be used..." http://www.solhaam.org/articles/islam02.html
Using six indeterminate letters -- none of them vowels and each of which can represent several distinctly different consonant sounds (with different meanings) makes any translations of the Koran compiled after the Sahaba died little more than guesswork. (The Sahaba were the original companions of the prophet -- the same men who wrote the contradictory versions of the Koran.)
2. In addition to the Koran, Islam also contains an enormous body of religious traditions called the Hadith. The Hadith are statements or deeds attributed to Mohammed, and a recent news article in Reuters said Islam contains 159,000 of them! http://blogs.reuters.com/faithworld/2008/03/07/turkey-explains-revision-of-hadith-project/ Large numbers of Hadith are fraudulent. For example, in his book (Authentication of Hadith: Redefining the Criteria, ISBN 978-1-56564-448-9) Islamic scholar Israr Ahmed Khan says, "... given the great mass of traditions circulated soon after the Prophet passed away, it would be unwise to ignore the fact that many contained forgeries."
Unfortunately, this unwieldy and highly suspect body of Muslim literature is the only record most Muslims (especially militant Muslims) accept, when determining the origins of the Koran. Regardless of the provenance of this enormous body of Hadith, as well as the questionable validity of the stories they contain concerning the scattered writings that Muslim tradition says were collected to construct the present-day Koran, one thing is certain: the flawed literary language used in the early Koran provided enormous opportunities for fraud when later Muslim leaders began consolidating the many competing and contradictory oral (and in a few cases written) versions of the Koran into one official body of written scripture. In the author's opinion, these men did this so they could use the Muslim holy book as a tool-to-power.
Unfortunately, in the collection and editing process, parts of the predominantly oral-tradition Koran became ambiguous. Perhaps this is why some of the explanatory footnotes in Muslim texts say: "...only God knows the full and true meaning of such verses." (The Koran for DUMMIES by Sohaib Sultan Nazeer, 2004. ISBN 0-7645-5581-2)
3. Muslim tradition admits the Koran has been massively revised. During this lengthy process, the author believes the current version of the Koran lost its purity and much of its original message, but the author also believes this was not always the case.
Muslim tradition says an important episode in this long-standing religious sedition (but not the first episode) took place approximately twenty years after Mohammed's death. It involved Caliph Uthman, the third successor to Mohammed. A cartel of corrupt friends and family members assisted Uthman. He made these men rich by appointing them to high office throughout the burgeoning Islamic empire. http://www.search.com/reference/Banu_Tamim
Because of the important role Khadija the Pure played in founding the original religion of Islam, when these greedy Muslim leaders began reviling and subjugating women, full-scale civil war erupted. This strife almost destroyed the infant Arabian Desert religion called Islam. One of these rebellions involved a female prophetess named Sajah. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sajah Shortly after Mohammed died, Sajah the prophetess emerged from the largest Arabian Desert tribe Banu Tamim.
Sajah the prophetess and her husband Musaylimah (who was also a prophet) challenged the corrupt all-male leadership that had seized control of the Islamic faith. Savage fighting followed and Muslim tradition says, "...attacking Muslims killed Musaylimah in a very fierce battle." (AL TABARI vol. 10, The Conquest of Arabia, translated by Fred M. Donner, SUNY, Albany, 1993.)
This Hadith was written approximately three hundred years after the founding of the original version of Islam. Nonetheless, Muslims consider it to be one of the more reliable Islamic traditions. Even so, it is unclear on the fate of Sajah after her husband and other loyal supporters were killed or became forced converts to Uthman's new brand of Islam. Other Hadith say Sajah went into hiding. Whatever her fate, it is clear many Arabs continued to hold secret views that were sympathetic to the views of prophetess Sajah. Because of these beliefs, Caliph Uthman and his greedy political allies viewed Sajah and the legacy she represented as a very real threat.
To fortify their position, these Arab rulers compiled a new and official written version of the Koran, which up to that time, had been largely memorized and recited as oral tradition during ritual prayers. By Uthman's time, most of the men who originally memorized the oral tradition Koran (directly from the mouth of the prophet) were dead. Their passing created a crisis of leadership because varying interpretations of the Koran were emerging throughout parts of the Muslim empire. These competing versions of Islam threatened to split the faith into warring factions.
Compounding the problems Uthman faced, was the fact that illiteracy was rampant during the time of Mohammed; only a handful of the companions of the prophet had written down any precious Koran manuscripts. These hand-written manuscripts existed in fragmentary pieces that were incomplete and often disagreed with each other.
Under the guise of remedying these textual conflicts, Uthman and his allies massively revised the Koran. In the process, they changed or deleted everything that threatened their right to rule the Empire of Mohammed.
Evidence of the scale of this massive editing exists in a variety of Muslim traditions, including al-Suynti: "...During the time of the prophet, the chapter of the Parties now identified as chapter 33 -- The Clans, (which is actually the 103rd chapter in correct chronological order in the original oral tradition Koran) used to be two hundred verses (long) ...When Uthman edited the Koran, only the current verses (73 of them) were recorded." (Suyuti: Itqan, Part 3, Page 72.)
Muslim tradition says Caliph Uthman erased an astonishing 127 verses from one single chapter! Similar changes occurred in other parts of the Koran, too. In fact, many contemporary scholars of Islamic history believe the entire book to be a 9th century forgery!
4. The author disagrees with this disturbing viewpoint, and rather believes some unknown person (or group of persons) scrambled the official rewritten Koran into a confused and contradictory mess! According to New Advent: "...the sacred book of the Moslems, by whom it is regarded as the revelation of God... in its present form has no chronological or logical sequence." http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/08692a.htm
An article in the online encyclopedia based on the 1911 Encyclopaedia Britannica talks about some of the confusion that resulted when the Koran was interpolated (interrupted, added to, or mixed up). http://www.1911encyclopedia.org/Koran
Significant numbers of lines of text, and in many cases entire chapters dating from the earliest days of Islam, (historians call this portion of the Koran the Mecca chapters or Mecca Suras, as Muslims refer to them) which had already survived being edited or erased in their entirety, were then cut out of proper chronological and topical sequence and mixed in with other parts of the Koran that Mohammed uttered years later -- the Medina Chapters, a time period following the death of Khadija the Pure, in which Mohammed no longer lived in voluntary poverty and sexual monogamy with only one wife, but instead, reveled in hedonistic luxury (while enjoying the sexual delights of an entire harem of wives -- one of whom was a six or seven year old child bride named Ayesha) in the 1000 year old city of Yathrib. Yathrib was a conquered Hebrew citadel which Mohammed's followers occupied, plundered, and renamed Medina; after first beguiling the innocent and trusting Jewish occupants of that ancient city into allowing them to enter, before they expelled, enslaved, or killed all of the Jews! (A considerable number of Muslim traditions boast about this hideous episode of Islamic history.)
This ferocious Trojan Horse tactic -- deception, infiltration, and conquest -- was first orchestrated in Arabia by Mohammed himself, and has frightening parallels to the proclaimed goals of modern-day Muslim terrorist organizations such as Hamas. Hamas is a key player in the governance of the Palestinian territories and refuses to acknowledge the right of the Jews living in Israel to live peacefully in a sovereign Jewish state. The Muslims have already tried to exterminate Israel in three 20th century wars (1948, 1967, and 1973). In each of these conflicts, the stated goal of the Muslims was, (and continues to be) the goal declared in the 1988 Hamas Charter, "the obliteration...of Israel." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamas
The following are examples of the peaceful and forgiving verses that entered the Koran while Mohammed (and Khadija) lived in the pagan city of Mecca.
The Koran, Chapter 15, verse 85 (In correct chronological order this is the 57th out of 114 chapters. This verse entered the Koran while Khadija was alive and active in the Muslim religion.)
We created the heavens and the earth, and all else in between, with a specific purpose! The hour (of Judgement) is sure to arrive! So forgive and forget with grace!
The Koran, Chapter 42, verse 43 (In correct chronological order this is the 83rd out of 114 chapters. This verse entered the Koran while Khadija was alive and active in the Muslim religion.)
But, to bear patiently and forgive is indeed an act of courage and a virtue.
The Koran, Chapter 76, verse 8 (In correct chronological order this is the 52nd out of 114 chapters. This verse entered the Koran while Khadija was alive and active in the Muslim religion.)
And they feed, for the love of God, the poor, the orphan, and the captive.
The Koran, Chapter 23, verse 60 (In correct chronological order this is 64th out of 114 chapters. This verse entered the Koran while Khadija was alive and active in the Muslim religion.)
And those who give charity, give as much as they can, because their hearts tremble at the thought of (dying and) returning to their Lord.
The Koran, Chapter 38, verses 50-52 (In correct chronological order this is the 59th out of 114 chapters. This verse entered the Koran while Khadija was alive and active in the Muslim religion.)
the pious shall have...Gardens of Eden...open to them...Therein reclining, they shall...call for...fruit and drink.
The following are examples of the violent verses that entered the Koran following Khadija's death. By this time, Mohammed had accumulated a harem of wives and lived in the conquered city of Medina.
The Koran, Chapter 5, verse 33 (In correct chronological order this is the 94th out of 114 chapters. This verse entered the Koran after Khadija's death.)
Kill or crucify non-Muslims, or cut off their hands and feet...
The Koran, Chapter 4, verse 3 (In correct chronological order this is the 100th out of 114 chapters. This verse entered the Koran after Khadija's death.)
Take as many as four wives from the women you are sexually attracted to...
The Koran, Chapter 8, verse 12 (In correct chronological order this is 95th out of 114 chapters. This verse entered the Koran after Khadija's death.)
Fill the hearts of non-Muslims with terror...chop off their heads and cut off their fingers...
The Koran, Chapter 8, verse 17 (In correct chronological order this is the 95th out of 114 chapters. This verse entered the Koran after Khadija's death.)
You are not the one who is murdering non-Muslims, Allah is murdering them...(using your hands) so he can test his faithful followers...
The Koran, Chapter 33, verse 50 (In correct chronological order this is the 103rd out of 114 chapters. This verse entered the Koran after Khadija's death.)
When it comes to marriage, Allah makes it legal for you to take as wives, women whom your right hand possesses. These words are a primitive 7th century Arabic expression meaning kidnapped female sex slaves!
The Koran, Chapter 8, verse 41 (In correct chronological order this is the 95th out of 114 chapters. This verse entered the Koran after Khadija's death.)
Of all the loot you steal (from non-Muslims in acts of Jihad) 20% belongs...to Mohammed.
As you can see, these later and violently different doctrines (known as the Medina chapters) exist in direct opposition to Islam's early teachings, (the Mecca chapters) when Mohammed and his only wife of twenty-four years, (Kadija the Pure) lived with a peaceful (and voluntarily impoverished) band of Ebionite Christian-Muslims in the pagan city of Medina.
The Pox of Mohammed discusses the reasons the Mecca Chapters were blended with the later Medina Chapters, as well as other little-known events from Islamic history, such as the brutal conquest of Yathrib, which Muslims renamed Medina. It is sufficient for this article to limit further discussion on these topics by stating the author's opinion that the Islamic elite who inherited (or later, violently hijacked) Mohammed's empire, benefitted from these cruel actions. This greedy self-interest, at the expense of others, is why these men acted in concert to confuse the topical and chronological order of the Koran chapters. It was a blatant attempt at deceiving the faithful followers of Allah.
The Great Muslim Koran Burning
Muslim tradition says Caliph Uthman acted under the dictatorial authority granted him as Mohammed's successor and issued an edict demanding that every one of the extremely rare written copies of the (originally oral tradition) Koran be returned to the Mosque in Medina. To the shock and dismay of the men gathered at this meeting, once his clerical representatives collected these irreplaceable manuscripts, Uthman had his soldiers pile the sacred texts atop a stack of dried firewood. Then his mercenaries held everyone at swordpoint while Uthman burned the books in a hellish bonfire! These extreme actions supported the massive changes Uthman and his gang of corrupt friends and family members was introducing into the Muslim religion.
This unfortunate Muslim history is reported in an array of Muslim traditions, and unfortunately for the modern world, it appears Uthman's clerics and book-burning mercenaries were astonishingly successful in destroying the original handwritten Koran manuscripts because, modern historians tell us ... "for (the first) 100 years of of Islamic history we have no verifiable Muslim documents (including Koran manuscripts) which can give us a window into this formative period of Islam. (Henry Wansbrough, Quaranic Studies, 1978:58-59-119 - University of London's School of Oriental and African Studies)
By way of comparison, if you examine authenticated manuscripts of the Christian Bible that survive from the same era, "a total of 230 manuscript portions are currently in existence which pre-date the beginnings of Islam. These can be broken down into 192 Greek New Testament manuscripts, 5 Greek lectionaries containing scripture, and 33 translations of the Greek New Testament." (The Text of the New Testament, Kurt Aland - 1987:82-83)
Uthman not only burned the competing versions of the Koran, but he also rendered parts of the surviving Muslim holy book into a document that is confusing, and in many cases, in-so-far as the original teachings of the Ebionite Christian origins of Islam are concerned -- wrong!
5. Muslim tradition says Uthman's bold act of literary larceny provoked immediate outrage! Fierce opposition arose, headed by Ibn Massoud. Ibn Massoud was a Sahaba (one of the prophet's original companions who lived long enough to see Uthman become Caliph of all Muslims). Ibn Massoud had memorized the earliest version of the oral Koran. He is also credited by Muslim tradition as the first believer to publically recite the oral tradition Koran in the pagan city of Mecca. In fact, Muslim tradition says when Ibn Massoud was a teenager, he lived with Mohammed and Khadija the Pure Later, this venerate man wrote down his own version of the oral tradition Koran, which he received directly from the mouth of the (original) prophet of Islam. This precious book was one of the extremely rare written Korans, which Uthman destroyed in the Great Muslim Koran Burning.
Muslim tradition recounted in Kitab al-Masahif, p.15, says Ibn Massoud vehemently objected, saying: "must I now forsake what I acquired directly from the (real) messenger of Allah?"
In addition to Muslim tradition, prominent Middle Eastern scholars have documented Uthman's act of fraud. For example, Dr. Taha Hussein, a 20th century Egyptian intellectual who was also a devout Muslim, had the courage to author a book titled, The Great Sedition which discussed this sad aspect of Islamic history.
Dr. Hussein wrote, "when Ibn Massoud objected to the burning of (his handwritten copy of) the Koran, Uthman (his mercenaries) took him out of the mosque with violence and ... (beat) him to the ground." (Taha Hussein, A-Fitnato Al-Kobra [The Great Sedition] 1947, pp.160-161, 181-182; Author's note: Dr. Taha Hussein was no ordinary 20th century Muslim intellectual. He served as the Minister of Education for Egypt. He also wrote dozens of books and was awarded the United Nations Prize for his achievements in human rights.)
Artistic representation of Caliph Uthman's dead body -- at the garbage dump
Uthman's religious fraud had far reaching consequences. Dr. Taha Hussein, in his book -- The Great Sedition, wrote: "When Uthman banned whatever he banned from the Koran, and burned whichever he burned of it, he banned passages Allah had revealed and burned parts that were given to Muslims by the messenger of Allah.
Following the blazing destruction of the competing versions of the Koran, an armed rebellion broke out between Caliph Uthman's mercenaries and a group of determined conservatives, which included the remaining Sahaba, the few surviving original companions of the Prophet. Certain of the family members and blood descendants of Mohammed and Khadija (including Mohammed's son-in-law, Ali, a future Caliph of all Muslims) may also have been involved in this rebellion. These reformers sought to restore Islam to its original teachings. In the chaos that followed, the reformers assassinated the corrupt Muslim ruler.
According to the Hadith (Al Istaib pg. 80, Dhikr), "Uthman: Three days after the murder, Uthman's body remained unattended near the rubbish (Medina's garbage dump) and the Sahaba (those who had been the original companions of the prophet) did not bury him."
Unfortunately for the peace-loving world, the Muslim conservatives who sought to restore Islam to its original (more peaceful) teachings were not successful. The combined military coalitions of Uthman's family members and wealthy political appointees slaughtered them. The victims of this massive Islamic killing spree included members of Mohammed's immediate family.
According to The Life and Religion of Mohammed, by Rev. J.L. Menezes (Roman Catholic Books, pages 98-99-100), "Ali ... the son-in-law of Mohammed (and the fourth caliph or ruler of all Muslims) ... soon raised many enemies by trying to displace the governors appointed by Caliph Othman ... (another spelling for Uthman). The most formidable was Muawiya, the governor of Syria. Ali was assassinated (on Muawiya's orders) ... Hasan (Mohammed's oldest grandson) was...poisoned at the instigation of Muawiya, who afterwards had himself proclaimed as Caliph. (A few years later) ... on the death of Muawiya, a party of Kufa invited Husain, (the only surviving grandson of Mohammed) ... to become Caliph ... a more powerful party favored Yezid, the son of Muawiya ... Yezid led a large military force against Husain (who was traveling with his wives and children, as well as a small group of loyal companions to a religious festival). Husain fell (in battle) pierced with 33 wounds. His head was cut off ... the descendents of Muawiya (and his murderous son Yezid) ... reigned (over Islam) for fourteen generations."
The tomb of Husain, Mohammed's beheaded grandson, is located near the site of his death in the modern-day Iraqi city of Karbala.
Unfortunately, the fate of Husain's family members was almost as horrible. They were taken into Muslim slavery! (REMEMBER: Husain's children were the great-grandchildren of Mohammed and Khadija the Pure.)
6. In the coming decades, the multi-generational cabal of men who hijacked power from the blood relatives of Mohammed and Khadija the Pure hired propaganda writers to fabricate vast numbers of false Hadith (Muslim religious traditions) which circulated to mosques throughout the Muslim empire and entered into Islamic doctrine.
Author and historian Dane Dahl believes these venal politicians did this to buttress their right to rule the Muslim empire by discrediting competing claims from the descendants of Khadija the Pure and her husband Mohammed. According to the following website: http://www.al-islam.org/khadija/23.htm ...Maulana Shibli Numani, the dean of Indian historians of Islam writes in his Life of the Prophet, Volume 1. During the reign of caliph Muawiya and the later Umayyad caliphs (14 generations of them) ... tens of thousands of hadith were churned out by hadith manufacturing factories ... 'Historians' on the payroll of the government strung together 'fact' after 'fact' and incorporated them into their (Muslim) history books.
In spite of this squalid past, Muslims declare the scrambled-up, erased, and rewritten Koran to be the perfect and divinely-inspired word of God! With these remarkable claims in mind, author and historian Dane Dahl has conducted extensive research into the content and structure of the Koran. In so doing, he came to the conclusion that (in its current form) the Koran more closely resembles the work of an illiterate child -- or a simpleton -- than the work of a divinely-inspired prophet.
Muslim websites boast about the Koran and call it a "miraculous or magnificent work." One of the numerous online Muslim websites that talk about the Koran (eMuslim.com) says:
"In principle, if you take out the repeated words, the total
number of words in Qur'aan may be less than 2000!"
Hmmmm...the miraculous and magnificant Koran contains less than 2000 different words? The medical website AllRefer.com Health says: a typical 5 year old child has an "Increasing vocabulary to over 2,100 words" The vocabulary of the entire written Koran could be smaller in size than the working vocabulary of an illiterate child entering kindergarten!
The limited range of words used in the rewritten, erased, and scrambled-up Koran is important, because in changing it, the author asserts the Koran was dumbed down to such an extent that significant parts of it have become confused, meaningless, and even false. Regardless of what critics say about the Bible, the fact remains that the Bible contains a vocabulary that is approximately six times larger than the simplistic language used in the revised Koran! According to The Global Language Monitor (There are) ...actually 12,143 (different words) in the Bible.
Each word of the much larger vocabulary in the Bible is necessary, because of the abstract and complex nature of the material the scripture attempts to deal with. In the future, should some corrupt and all-powerful political leader compel a rewriting of the Bible, even without trying to falsify it -- merely using the childish two thousand word vocabulary of the Muslim holy book -- would go a long way toward making the Christian Bible as incomprehensible and textually wrong, in so far as its original message is concerned, as is the rewritten Koran!
Women in Islam
7. This item brings us to the sensitive topic of women and women's rights in the history of Islam. The author Dane Dahl has dealt with this subject in considerable detail in The Pox of Mohammed. Without giving anything away, the following information might prove helpful to the readers of this article.
In the earliest days of Islam, non-Muslim Arab women contended with a host of social ills including: "being sold (involuntarily) into marriage ... no inheritance rights ... unlimited polygamy ... female infanticide ... (and) no legal rights whatsoever ... treated no better than a commodity." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_in_Arab_societies#Arab_women_before_Islam
However, the Ebionite Christian-Muslim women living in the city of Mecca fared considerably better and enjoyed a surprising array of legal rights, including "property ownership ... inheritance (rights) ... and divorce (rights) ." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_in_Arab_societies
In fact, in the area of women's rights, the early version of Islam was centuries ahead of the rest of the world. This changed after Khadija's death (when Mohammed fled to the soon-to-be conquered and renamed city of Yathrib). An example of how great this change ultimately became is illustrated by the following. According to Wikipedia's online article: Women in the Koran, " Mary (Maryam) is the only female mentioned in the (rewritten) Qur'an by name." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Female_figures_in_the_Quran
On the other hand, Wikipedia has at least two online articles that discuss women who are named in the Bible. The Bible is certainly not an example of literature that is progressive or sympathetic to feminist issues, however, in spite of this glaring philosophical flaw, the first of these two Wikipedia articles states there are 188 women mentioned by name in the Bible: "The role examples of 188 named Women in the Bible, and a host of others left unnamed, identify prominent queens, prophetesses, judges, and military leaders." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_in_the_Bible
The second of these two Wikipedia articles concerning women who are named in the Bible provides a detailed list of those 188 named women. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_women_in_the_Bible
In view of Islam's progressive attitude toward women (in the earliest days of the religion) the glaring discrepancy between the number of named women in the Bible and the number of named women in the revised Koran (188 to 1) ushers in two questions: What happened in early Islamic history? Why is the Virgin Mary the only woman mentioned by name in the entire 6200 verses of the (present-day) Koran?
In the opinion of author and historian Dane Dahl, there were originally many other women named in the oral tradition Koran (the one that was recited when Khadija the Pure was alive and actively involved in the Muslim faith), but they were all erased from the official rewritten version compiled by Caliph Uthman and his greedy successors.
In spite of exaggerated Muslim boasting concerning the spiritual holiness a tiny number of devout women like Khadija the Pure supposedly displayed throughout Muslim history, Islamic doctrine considers all the remaining women on earth to be foul and unclean. An example of this extreme prejudice is shown by a Koran verse which labels the menstrual cycles of women (including devout Muslim women) "pollution," (harmful or poisonous). The Koran, Chapter 2, verse 222. (When placed in correct chronological order, Chapter 2 is actually 91st chapter out of a total of 114 chapters, and was spoken after Khadija's death).
The Hadith Hazrat Anas ibn Malik expounds on this hateful philosophy by declaring: On the lap of every woman sits a satan who makes her desirable to whoever looks at her. Two more traditions that are widely used in modern Islam <Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim) both quote the Messenger of Allah as saying, "I have not left behind me any trial more harmful to men -- than women."
A Wikipedia article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_views_of_Mary#cite_note-6) says the Muslim Hadith Bukhari, Anbiya, 44; Muslim, Fada'il, trad. 146, 147 declares the Virgin Mary and her son Jesus to be the only humans in all of history who were not touched by the devil! Even though this questionable tradition arose long after Mohammed's death and mentions both male and female genders, Islam's extreme prejudice against all things female (especially when it comes to women's rights or promoting women into leadership positions), causes contemporary militant Muslims to insist on applying this teaching only to women. The two Hadith that follow ... illustrate this point.
1. "... a prophet is a "perfect" being, while women ... could never be perfect". http://www.islamonline.net Imam Ibn Kathir Tafseer Ibn Katheer, Vol. 2, page 497.
2. Imam Al-Shawkani even said there is a consensus (ijma) among scholars over that opinion (that women can never be perfect) in his Fath Al-Qadeer, Vol. 4, page 159.
However, the author's research has uncovered something even more disturbing. Muslim doctrine that is not based on the rewritten Koran, but rather originated entirely from one of the highly questionable traditions which made their debut as long as three centuries after the beginning of Islam, says, ...women should never be in charge of men! (Sahih al-Bukhari #4425)
This male-chauvinistic approach is reinforced by other questionable Hadith that arose centuries after Islam began, including a tradition in which Abu Bakr (the first caliph after Mohammed) is supposed to have said: When the Messenger of Allah heard that the people of Persia had appointed the daughter of Chosroes as their queen, he replied, "No people will ever prosper who appoint a woman in charge of them." (Hadith al-Bukhari, 4163)
Given the progressive social environment women enjoyed during the early phase of the Ebionite Christian version is Islam, two more questions come to mind: What happened? What calamitous event caused Mohammed's teachings to change so drastically?
A woman in charge: Khadija running her trading company
Who was Khadija the Pure?
And what role did she play in the creation of Islam?
Mohammed's first wife was named Khadija the Pure. Mohammed and Khadija were married for twenty-four years. The online Wikipedia says the following: "Although the society in which Khadija was born was a terribly male chauvinistic one, Khadija earned two titles: Khadija the Ameerat-Quraish (Princess of Quraish) and al-Tahira (The Pure One)."
The same Wikipedia article continues: "Before Khadija asked Mohammed to marry her, she was sought for marriage by many honorable and highly-respected men of the Arabian Peninsula, throughout which she was quite famous due to her business dealings." (Author's note: Muslim tradition says Khadija owned a trading company and was extremely wealthy. In fact, Mohammed was originally nothing more than her employee. He worked for Khadija, first as a camel driver, and eventually as her business manager and mouthpiece in the male-dominated Arabian world of commerce and trading.)
A (Christian) Coptic Church website says the following about Khadija: Mohammed married Khadija in a sexually monogamous Christian wedding ceremony. During the twenty-four years of their marriage, she was Mohammed's only wife. http://www.copticchurch.org
Often times, Muslim traditions receive equal importance with the Koran. Certain of these elevated Hadith declare Khadija to be one of the four holiest women in all of human history. For example, the Muslim website http://www.al-islam.org says: "In the entire history of the world, there have only been four women who could measure up to the high standards of...perfection set by Islam... They are: 1. Asiya the wife of Pharoah 2. Maryam the mother of Isa (Jesus) 3. Khadija the wife of Mohammed...
Muslim tradition also says Khadija's wealth created Islam. The same website says: "Islam did not arise except through ... Khadija's wealth."
And last of all, concerning the role of women and women's rights in Islam, Muslim tradition says Khadija gave her wealth to the poor and died in (voluntary) poverty.
"Khadija was a kind hearted, giving woman known to frequently assist the poor and the needy." http://www.suite101.com/article.cfm/islam_in_the_us/32518
"It is reported that by the time she died, her entire wealth had already been spent to promote Islam; she did not have a single gold dinar nor a single silver dirham." http://www.al-islam.org/biographies/khadija.htm
Question: If Khadija did all of these wonderful things, why is her name not found anywhere in the Koran? Author and historian Dane Dahl believes Khadija's name was erased (from the originally oral tradition Koran) not only because she was a woman but also because the successors to Mohammed considered her central role in the creation of Islam, as well as her potent Ebionite Christian legacy to be a very real threat to the evil plans they had for the Muslim empire. Dane Dahl also believes the same brutal campaign of repression and censorship erased the names and contributions of many other women.
Lat, Uzza, and Manat
Three female angels from the (original) Satanic Verses of Islam
What are the (original) Satanic Verses of Islam?
The (original) Satanic Verses of Islam discussed three female angels who received great respect in the earliest days of the religion. A 19th century Islamic scholar named Sir William Muir wrote about the feeble excuse Mohammed invented when he removed the Koran verses talking about these divine females. Muir's writings are the origins of the phrase, the Satanic Verses of Islam.
The Muslim Hadith (Al-Tabari, Annals 1:1192-1193 & 6:108-109) talks about these original Islamic Verses and says these words used to appear in verses 19-22 of the 53rd chapter of the Koran (which is actually the 46th chapter in correct chronological order). "Have you seen Lat and Uzza, and another, the third (angel), Manat? These are the exalted cranes whose intercession is to be hoped for."
Lat, Uzza, and Manat were originally part of the 300+ gods and goddesses worshipped in the Kabba. Early Islam brought them into the belief system, not as goddesses, but rather as high order female angels. This occurred in approximately the same time period in which the Catholic Christian Church began teaching the faithful to pray to the saints, the Virgin Mary, and the angels for divine intercession. The first Muslims viewed these three females as intermediaries who flew through the heavens and watched over the affairs of men. The mental imagery in these four Koran verses empowered women, and it is no accident that all of these verses were originally revealed to the Islamic faithful while Khadija the Pure was alive and active in the Muslim religion (the Mecca Chapters). Only after Khadija died and Mohammed fled to Medina, did he work up the nerve to declare these four verses to be the discredited Satanic Verses of Islam.
The Pox of Mohammed discusses the original Satanic Verses of Islam (as well as their modern day counterparts -- which are still in the Koran), so further coverage of this topic will be limited to the following conclusion on the part of the author. While living in hedonistic luxury in the conquered city of Yathrib (which he renamed Medina or the city of the prophet -- as a deliberate act of self-aggrandizement), Mohammed proclaimed that (while Khadija was still alive) the Devil came to him and deceived him into uttering those words about Lat, Uzza, and Manat. As a result, Islamic doctrine removed the three female angels from Muslim teachings. In the same period, Mohammed introduced the Medina Chapters of the Koran; these chapters contain hateful and primitive Arab traditions and beliefs; traditions and beliefs that wrought a host of evils on mankind and also reduced the status of women to little more than property: something that could be bought, sold, or stolen against the will of the women.
Who were the Ebionites and why were they important in Islamic history?
8. This item on the list of historical topics, concerning which Muslims have incorrect beliefs, involves their ignorance regarding the essential role Ebionite Christianity played in the early formation of Islam.
According to Wikipedia online: "Most Ebionites were Jews who considered themselves to be the direct disciples of Jesus and John the Baptist." ... (The) Ebyonim (an Aramaic word meaning)"the Poor Ones" ... (were an) early sect of mostly Jewish disciples of Jesus the Nazarene, and possibly, to a lesser extent, John the Baptist."
An Ebionite Bishop named Waraka married Mohammed and Khadija (his first and only wife for twenty-four years) in a monogamous Christian wedding ceremony. This is significant because the Ebionite Christians were zealous in practicing all of Christ's teachings, including the ones commanding them to display love and forgiveness -- even to their enemies!
According to Philip Schaff's History of the Christian Church, Vol. 4, "Scattered communities of Christians lived in pre-Islamic Arabia, and the Ebionites were part of that population...The Christians belonged mostly to the various heretical sects which were expelled from the Roman empire during the violent doctrinal controversies...We find there traces of Arians, Sabellians, Ebionites, Nestorians, Eutychians, Monophysites, Marianites, and Collyridians or worshippers of Mary."
Precise population numbers for the Christian sects which migrated to Arabia to escape persecution in the Eastern Roman Empire are unknown, but it is believed their total number was considerable, because an online article says the following concerning one of these groups, the Monophysites: Dhu Nuwas (the king of Yemen) came against them (the Monophysite Christians) with his armies and invited them to accept Judaism, giving them the choice between that or death: they chose death. So he dug trenches for them; burnt some in fire, slew some with the sword, and mutilated them until he had killed nearly twenty thousand." http://ethnikoi.org/paganarabs.html
A Wikipedia article says the Ebionites are mentioned in the Dead Sea Scrolls: "...the self same identification appears in several (ancient) religious texts, such as the Dead Sea Scrolls..."
Many historians believe there is a direct connection between the 1st and 2nd century Ebionite movement in Judea, and the early Muslim community in 7th century Arabia. For example: According to the German Jewish writer Hans-Joachim Schoeps, the religion which Mohammed founded at the beginning of his public activity was very Ebionite. (SCHOEPS, HANS-JOACHIM: Jewish Christianity. Philadelphia, Penn., Fortress Press, 1969) See also: http://www.auburn.edu/~allenkc/jud-chr.html
In short, the Ebionites were important to Islam because their unique (and now extinct) brand of faith was an integral part of the religion practiced by Mohammed and Khadija the Pure. The Ebionite creed became the theological foundation for the emerging religion called Islam. When it comes to the issue of women's rights in Islam, these factors are important enough to convince the author that the first and real prophet of Islam was not Mohammed, but rather his wife Khadija the Pure: a devout Ebionite Christian woman, whom Muslim tradition declares to have been a wealthy and influential Arab princess, and one of the four holiest women in all of human history!
Terrorism and the 72 virgins of Islam
9. This is the final item in this article discussing historically incorrect beliefs held by many Muslims. If you the reader wish to learn more -- read The Pox of Mohammed. In fact, prior to writing his contemporary fiction novel, Dane Dahl conducted extensive research into the topic: Terrorism and the 72 virgins of Islam. His findings concerning the origins of Muslim traditions about 72 virgins -- and why this absurb myth persists as a driving force in militant Islamic dogma in the 21st century -- are discussed in detail in The Pox of Mohammed.
For purposes of this article, it is sufficient to say two things. First, the massively edited and rewritten Koran makes no mention of 72 virgins. The Koran does talk about the rewards righteous men will receive in Paradise; but even those descriptions of Paradise are little more than 7th century Muslim plagiarism of older passages titled Hymns of Paradise, written by a 4th century Christian teacher known as Saint Ephram of Syria.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ephrem_the_Syrian#Writings
http://www.bibleprobe.com/muhammad.htm
And nowhere in the Koran's descriptions of heaven does the promise appear saying anyone, whether his soul be righteous or wicked will receive either 70 or 72 as a reward (or punishment?) for his deeds.
Even the Arab word for virgins (houris) is a matter of controversy because 7th century Muslim scribes were largely ignorant of other languages and spoke only Arabic. Because all of the Christians had been beheaded or enslaved by their Muslim conquerors, these fanatical men knew nothing of the Aramaic language used by the early Christian church, and they mistranslated it when they tried to update older Christian literature. The earlier Christian church included the Ebionite Christians. The Ebionites, as well as many of the other Christian and Jewish sects living in Arabia spoke the ancient language of Aramaic; the native tongue of Jesus of Nazareth and most of his original followers, as well as vast numbers of early Jewish-Christians throughout the Middle East.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aramaic_language#Post-Achaemenid_Aramaic
Later, after the Christians and Jews living in Arabia (including the Ebionites) were slaughtered by beheading or taken into slavery after they refused to convert to Islam, the confusion over the Arabic word houris developed from an ignorant interpretation of older, pre-existing (Christian) Aramaic texts.
A New York Times story on this subject supports the author's opinion. (Scholars Are Quietly Offering New Theories of the Koran, by Alexander Stille, March 2, 2002) This article discussed the ongoing work of Christoph Luxenberg, a scholar of ancient Semitic languages, and says, "the famous passage about the virgins is based on the word hur, which is an (Aramaic) adjective in the feminine plural meaning simply "white." Islamic tradition insists the term hur stands for "houri," which means virgin (in Arabic), but Mr. Luxenberg says this is a forced misreading of the text. In both ancient Aramaic and in at least one respected dictionary of early Arabic, hur means white raisin."
The author supports Professor Luxenberg's thesis, because he has also done enough research to know early Muslim writing was too primitive to have vowels and diacritical points. The original Muslim scribes of early Islam used only six letters, all of which were consonants. The all-important diacritical marks which later Arabic texts developed (and used to differentiate between consonants and identify correct vowel sounds) had not yet evolved. This means only six (indeterminate) letters (none of which were vowels) were available to write out twenty-six different sounds.
The second part of item #9 involves the actual number of virgins (or white raisins?) Muslim tradition says devout Muslims (including terrorists and suicide bombers?) will receive in paradise. The number 70 or 72 depends on which of the questionable Muslim Hadith you choose to quote. All of these Muslim traditions made their appearance in Islamic doctrine at least one century (and as long as three centuries) after the beginning of Islam.
Interestingly enough, the eternal rewards righteous women receive are largely ignored in the erased and rewritten Koran; there are a few scanty references remaining, but the only detailed descriptions the author has been able to find concerning females in Paradise involve the Virgin Mary and the houris (assuming the houris are actually women and not shriveled white grapes). Disregarding the debate concerning the houris, it is safe to say the present Koran teaches very little about the eternal fate of the loyal, affectionate Muslim women who have lived their lives during the past fourteen centuries, as submissive and obedient wives, daughters and mothers. Perhaps this glaring omission is why hateful and chaunvinistic Muslim men (especially militant Muslim men) feel free to declare all Muslim women "touched by devil!"
Author and historian Dane Dahl believes a great number of verses detailing rewards for righteous women were originally included in the oral tradition Koran, but they were erased -- along with a host of female names, beginning with Khadija the Pure: the one woman the venal and murderous successors to Mohammed viewed as the greatest threat to the lustful and cruel plans they had for humanity.
In conclusion: What are the origins of terror, including slavery and beheadings in the Muslim religion? It all began with Mohammed -- after the death of Khadija the Pure. By that time, he had squandered her vast fortune. When Khadija died in voluntary poverty and was no longer around to restrain his wicked impulses, Mohammed and a small band of fanatical followers fled to Yathrib. Once he conquered the city (through deception, terror, and bloodshed) and became its undisputed ruler, he renamed the ancient Jewish citadel and called it Medina (i.e. the city of the prophet).
By that time, Mohammed had abandoned many of the teachings of the Ebionite Christian form of Islam. In fact, the author believes Mohammed's original conversion to Ebionite Christianity was tenuous at best (and possibly a complete act of fraud) because of unsavory character flaws in his personality, resulting from the hardship and cruelty he endured as an orphan, and later as an impoverished young adult. The author believes Mohammed became an Ebionite Christian only because he wanted to marry Khadija and have access to her fortune. Twenty-four years later, Khadija died and Mohammed was out of money; he was also hiding from his enemies, who wanted to kill him. Mohammed's guiding light was gone, not to mention his wealth and influence. The desperate man reverted at least in part to the primitive ideas most Arabs living at the time continued to practice. He realized the brand of religion he was promoting as a prophet needed to be more in harmony with these ancient beliefs, if Islam was going to appeal to potential followers. To make his teachings more acceptable, he deemphasized the austere teachings of the Ebionite Christian version of Islam, which pagan Arabs viewed as the religious beliefs of foreigners. Western scholars of Islamic history document this fact, for example one scholar says the following: Mohammed communicated them (the Koran teachings) to the Arabs as something new, and specially revealed to himself; and inasmuch as the latter (the Arabs) actually accused him of having received instruction from foreigners." (THE BIBLE, THE KORAN, AND THE TALMUD; OR BIBLICAL LEGENDS OF THE MUSSULMANS. BY DR. G. WEIL, LIBRARIAN OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HEIDELBERG, FELLOW OF THE ASIATIC SOCIETY OF PARIS)
The 'foreign' Ebionite teachings Mohammed abandoned stressed the importance of love and forgiveness and living a life of voluntary poverty as well as sexual monogamy.
At this point in the discussion, it might be helpful to interject brief but relevant information regarding the historical background of Mohammed's era. Two hundred years before Mohammed's birth, significant numbers of Ebionite Christians began fleeing the persecution inflicted upon them by the Catholic Church in the Eastern Roman Empire. These believers transplanted en masse their religious communities to places like Arabia. The author believes the Ebionite refugees who settled in the city of Mecca were among one specific wave of immigrants who came to Arabia to escape the particularly bloody persecution, which the Eastern Roman Emperor Justinian decreed for all Christian heretics, after he convened the 2nd Council of Constantinople in AB 553. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Council_of_Constantinople)
The author also believes after the death of Khadija the Pure, (and the loss of her wealth and power) Mohammed shrewdly realized ancient pagan customs and traditions were too deeply rooted in the psyche of 7th century Arabs for them to convert to Khadija's version of Ebionite Christian-Islam in any large numbers. These ancient Arabic customs included: unlimited polygamy, blood feuds, looting, robbery, murder and slavery -- all set against a backdrop of grinding poverty and scorching desert wilderness, largely devoid of water and vegetation and populated only by scattered Bedouins (who considered themselves wealthy if they owned tiny herds of emaciated goats and camels).
Mohammed also understood these same Arabs possessed an array of religious beliefs that were exceedingly primitive. In fact, those Arab beliefs were even more superstitious than the ones held by contemporary Christians living in the Middle East. For example, the Arabs not only believed in angels and fallen angels (demons), but they added an additional realm of spirit beings called Jinn or genies. These genies lived in organized kingdoms that haunted the desert. They menaced the Arabs day and night. To accomodate and convert pagan Arabs who believed such nonsense, Mohammed introduced teachings into Islam that adopted many of their primitive beliefs. This resulted in the incorporation of Jinn into the Koran, as well as the vast body of Muslim traditions. Today, the Koran contains an entire chapter named for the Jinn, and single verses about the Jinn are scattered throughout the holy book. For example, one verse says genies are made of "smokeless fire." (Koran, Chapter 15, verse 27.)
Mohammed's new and bastardized form of the Muslim religion was extremely successful. His followers grew in number and he quickly reacquired a fortune as well as the political (and military) power he had coveted for so long. From that point in time, formerly pagan Arabs flocked to join his new religion, which was now headquartered in the conquered and renamed city of Medina. As neo-Muslims, these Arabs stopped praying toward Jerusalem and started praying while facing Mecca. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qibla) The practice of praying toward Jerusalem came from Islam's Jewish-Christian roots. Instead, Mohammed ordered neo-Muslims to shift their direction of prayer toward Mecca, with its 1000 year old pagan temple (the Kabba) where countless generations of Arab pilgrims had made pilgrimage, so they could worship more than 300 gods and goddesses.
Also from that date forward, a totally new type of prophetic utterances began entering Islamic doctrine, including: terror, murder, slavery, looting, polygamy, and the repression of women. The author believes Mohammed encouraged his followers to engage in these criminal acts against neighboring Jewish, Christian, and pagan cities, because they helped him swell his armies and build his brutal Islamic empire.
Following the prophet's death (which The Pox of Mohammed discusses in detail, including the hushed-up and shameful circumstances of Mohammed's death), generations of Muslim rulers continued the drastic changes Mohammed and his immediate successors introduced into neo-Islam. As in Mohammed's case, the motives of these other men were not based on doing the will of God (Allah). This was all about power. Because of the larceny corrupting their souls, they deliberately changed Islam's original teachings, the ones that the originally-oral-tradition Koran expounded. The mutated hybrid they cobbled together (as the new and official written Koran) deemphasized, watered down, or completely erased the kind-hearted teachings of Jesus, such that Islam eventually pushed aside the Messiah of early Islam (and the Ebionite Christians), and shuffled Mohammed (a man who died years before and was originally nothing more than Khadija's camel driver turned business manager, as well as a man whom Muslim traditions do not say came from a virgin birth like Jesus did, nor did he have a saintly mother whom Muslims deem to be pure and untouched by the Devil, like Jesus did) into the status of supreme prophet of Islam!!! Once this outrageous religious sedition was complete, a renewed flood of doctrines that were even more violent and hateful than Mohammed's Medina Chapters teachings began entering the Muslim religion; this time in the form of manufactured Hadith (traditions). These beliefs (contained in the Koran and the Hadith) became the origins of Islamic terror; Islamic terror that has reverberated in ferocious paroxysms of violence through human history for more than thirteen hundred years.
Today, in the 21st century, Muslim militancy (Jihad) is on the rise once again. The U.S. State Department List of Foreign Terrorist Organizations (released April 8, 2008) identifies 25 separate Muslim terrorist organizations operating in the world.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_terrorism
http://merln.ndu.edu/archivepdf/terrorism/state/103392.pdf
Even if western military and intelligence operatives successfully imprison or kill all of the leaders of the more high-profile groups, such as al-Qaeda, the author believes this religion-sanctioned tsunami of violence and hate could be unstoppable; because these criminals have millions of followers scattered over the surface of the entire earth. The militant Muslim leadership that controls them operates openly in an array of Muslim nations including, but not limited to, a list of rogue countries such as Iran, Syria, Somalia and Sudan. Even Afghanistan, Pakistan, Egypt and the Palestinian Territories contain vast numbers of militant Muslims that refuse to submit to the rules of civilized law and order. To make matters worse, the fanatical hoodlums in militant Muslim organizations receive billions of dollars in financial revenue each year from their worldwide criminal activities such as narcotics and weapons trafficking, as well as prostitution, murder and kidnapping. The Pox of Mohammed talks about this growing militant Muslim plague, and its frightening implications for modern civilization, so further discussion will be limited to the obvious goal of these religious lunatics: destroying their enemies, which includes the United States.
Because centuries of Islamic holy war have ethnically cleansed most Jews and Christians from the Middle East (with the notable exception of Israel, to which the Jews have recently returned) Israel is named as the first enemy they plan to eliminate; only this time instead of using horses and swords, Islamic militants (and the rogue governments that support them) hope to use nuclear and biological weapons. Even if you (the reader) are not Jewish and do not live in Israel, this evil goal portends great danger for you, because unless militant Islam suddenly and en masse repudiates, the violent doctrines contained in the Medina chapters of the Koran, as well as the more massive and malicious teachings woven throughout the entire body of Hadith, it is the stated opinion of the author that it is not a matter of if, but when this nuclear conflagration will take place. Once this ferocious war begins in earnest, aspects of Muslim terror (all of which were introduced into neo-Islam, either when Mohammed first uttered the Medina Chapters -- or later, when his successors fabricated the massive body of Hadith); Muslim terror even more savage and nightmarish than beheadings or slavery (which up to this point in time, modern-day Jews and Christians, as well as most moderate Muslims, have been fortunate enough to witness only vicariously, by way of newspapers or televised evening news stories) could spread worldwide. If militant Muslims have their way, within days (maybe within hours) of the outbreak of all-out hostilities -- Mohammed's brutal teachings concerning Islamic Terror which are clearly stated in the Medina Chapters of the Koran, could take on a new and immediate and terrifying meaning in your city, ...and your neighborhood, ...and...your home!
