4-9- Leaving Islam: Apostates Speak Out - Ibn Warraq

Ibn Warraq
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ibn Warraq (born 1946) is the pen name of a secularist author of Pakistani origin and founder of the Institute for the Secularisation of Islamic Society and a senior research fellow at the Center for Inquiry[1][2] [3] focusing on Qur'anic criticism. [4][5]

Warraq gathered world notice through his controversial historiographies of the early centuries of the Islamic timeline and has published works which question mainstream conceptions of the period. He is the author of seven books, including Why I Am Not a Muslim (1995), The Origins of the Koran (1998), and Quest for the Historical Muhammad, (2000). He has also spoken at the United Nations "Victims of Jihad" conference organized by the International Humanist and Ethical Union alongside speakers such as Bat Ye'or, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, and Simon Deng.[6]

The first part of the book presents an overview of the theological-juridical underpinnings of apostasy in Islam based upon the Quran, the hadiths and written opinions from classical schools of Islamic jurisprudence as well as contemporary written pronouncements of Islamic jurists.

The next section presents the history of the application of Islamic jurisdiction on apostates documenting notable cases from the early centuries of Islam, such as those of freethinkers Ibn al-Rawandi and Ar-Razi (865-925), or skeptical poets such as Omar Khayyam (1048-1131) and Hafiz (1320-89), or Sufi (mystic) practitioners including Mansur Al-Hallaj, executed in 922 and As-Suhrawardi executed in 1191, and the atheist Sulayman al-Ma'arri (973-1057).

This followed by numerous case studies covering modern day apostasies and conversions out of Islam trends throughout the world.

The later part contains testimonials of born Muslim apostates including the ex-Muslim Ali Sina and other western converts.

This is where we are heading in USA, the New Jersey state schools are already beginning to invite Islamic influence into the schools, because terrorism works. Notice Christians are not to have any influence in the very schools that they are forced to pay for, yet Muslims are invited to make an influence.

The religion of the glorified pimp, coming to a public school near you.

How can you compare Jesus Christ to mohomed...and if you really want to compare the Bible and the koran look at Matthew 7: 15-16...."Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits". In other words you will know false prophets by what they produce....and look what mohomed and his islam produces every day...

Are you no more intelligent than a small child ?

Fullness, Flesh and Spirit.

For all time, God in His fullness is known as the Father. He was in Fullness.

On Earth, God in Flesh is Christ. Death can not defeat God, so Christ was not defeated. He was in Flesh.

When Christ returned and once again, became the Father. When Christ reaches towards us, He is in Spirit

We can not know The Father. We can not fully understand the Spirit. Yet all we need to know is God in Flesh. Christ.

[trevormac77]

The Bible never condones the behaviour you are talking about, it merely faithfully records it. Mohammed was a terrible human being and we are supposed to believe he is the ideal man. I couldn't think of a man more opposite the magnificent life that Jesus lead and the example that Jesus set. Mo was a disgusting human being who belongs in the history books with the likes of Hitler and Stalin.

You are right terrorism works, fear works and it is pathetic. U.S. got attacked and they try to nurture and befriend these snakes. How sad and mad have we become?
