Nidal Hassan Malik: Texas, Fort Hood s Shooter Islam and Reason

Hasan Yahya A., Ph.D.

In Arabic there is a proverb says: the Mosqueto can hurt the eyes of the lion. This analysis is a response to news about Nidal Malik Hasan, , according to authorities, a military psychiatrist 39 years ancient, was in the shooting at the Fort. Hood, which left 13 people dead and injuring at least 38 before being shot by two civilian police officers and remains hospitalized in stable condition with multiple gunshot wounds.

While the authorities are trying to find a motive for the attack, retracing the steps of the suspect in recent days and months, interviewing colleagues, neighbors, friends and family to gather data on life Hasan – and if it was went, at least in part, by the radical Islamic ideology.

While the authorities warned people against drawing conclusions about the attack until more facts are known. This fine all to investigate. The president said that both the White House as Chief of Staff General George W. Casey Jr., at the Fort. Hood. But what science and logic say?

Muhammad, the Prophet of Islam 14 centuries ago, knew more about human nature and culture, not to include ahl al-Themmah on Army forces. United States should know that standard and apply it to the Arm Forces. This is not a call to despise Muslims or followers of another religion. Muslim tradition says in reality that non-Muslims (the Themmis) can not be members of the armed forces, period. This rule is not applied without logic. Any devout person (for any religion) can follow their emotions and act according to their faith and religious norms. This assumption obviously can not be rejected, regardless of the proportion of those who deny this hypothesis. For example, in Israel to follow this rule, where Arab Muslims can not be recruited into the Israeli army. By contrast, U.S. the rule is not followed, where sometimes high-ranking Jews in the U.S. intelligence the interests of Israel.

USA is an open political system, is to demolish the racism and hatred by applying the principles of equality and justice to deal with citizens on an equal footing. FBI was aware of this issue when they tried to recruit people who belong to Islam as a faith years ago when they came to the Muslim community in Detroit. But they forgot that the application of equality to Muslims are not fully respected institutions, and to respect those of individuals. This means that, sociologically speaking, that if people agree to be full citizens, institutions act to U.S. citizens with disrespect, not to recognize the individual as a full citizen

In May 2009 a article entitled. Is loyalty is doubtful Muslims in Western countries? Posted on the site articlesbase, the author describes the loyalty between the Muslims, the author wrote:

“To be a full citizen you have to comply with authorities, when he becomes a citizen. In that authorities each new citizen is committed to respect the system and their associations, including military forces. These authorities then broken if the trust comes to loyalty that 20 percent of the arm forces of the nation. The Tire canter, 30 percent of Muslims in Germany, France and Britain believe that Muslims really [with complete loyalty] belong to the countries in which we live The downside of the data, 70 percent of Muslims believe that non- the nation in which citizens live. ” http://www.articlesbase.com/strategic-plotting-articles [] / en-Muslims, loyalty-is-doubtful-in-western-nations-917328.html

H also said that in the same article mentioned above: “In recent years there was a question about the loyalty of Muslims living nations, especially in Europe, [Germany, France and Britain], which is closer to the Arab and Muslim countries and North America [USA and Canada]. While the research conducted in Britain, Germany and France showed that 75 + percent of Muslims living in these countries consider themselves as part of the host society and its associations. downside of research means that 25 percent still are not considered in the social fabric of these nations. In other words, we must accept the argument that the policies of the governments of these countries are justified. Its justification is that danger comes from unreported quarter (25 percent) who present to security concerns. While security is very respected, do not want the practices of governments in terms of national security at risk the safety of 75 percent that are similar or semi-assimilated into the host countries. “

Back to the tale here, Muhammad, the Prophet of Islam (as well as Muslim leaders of his time), I knew better not to include ahl al-Themmah ( non-Muslims) in the Army forces. The United States should know and know that rule and apply it to the Arm Forces. Sometimes, justice and equality is as two-edged sword. Security of U.S. citizens, civilian or armed forces should be the paramount goal of government practices. I believe the lack of knowledge of other cultures regard to religion between the administration and the CIA and FBI personnel should be reassessed, following the rule and understanding of Islam in the recruitment arm forces personnel without descructing human rights. Otherwise, 70 percent of Muslims who believe that they belong to the (European) countries to live as citizens according to the Gallop poll is expected to act according to their cultural mindset, the assimilation of the theories we say, continuous humility and Muslim Arabs in terms of U.S. foreign policy latest showdown with UN resolution 768 Congress can influence the rage and be a reason. Defeated people can do anything to demonstrate that enough is enough. I reckon members of Congress who initiated the resolution resonsible 768 are part of what happened in Texas. America has to wake up. In psychology, but, when people react in a bloody rage and rage, become the measure of themselves, other people, you feel mentally strong to do something horrible and pain. The Arab proverb is right in this case. I still remember 11.9. Jews never forgot the Holocaust, the Muslims never forgot what the U.S. did in Afghanistan, Iraq and Palestine, and continues to do, to ignore justice in world affairs (1180 words) www.hasanyahya.com

In the 20th century, antisemitism has signed its name to fantastic disasters, one of the most horrible being the cruelty and murder inflicted by the Nazis on the Jews. Besides this, in many countries authoritarian regimes have targeted Jews and subjected them to cruel treatment. Fascist organizations have harassed Jews and arranged bloody attacks against them.

In our times antisemitism is still an ideology which threatens world peace and targets the well-being and security of innocent people.

So, how should a Muslim regard antisemitism?

The answer is obvious. Every Muslim must oppose antisemitism as he would oppose every other racist ideology; he must resist this ideology of hatred and defend the rights of Jews as he would defend the rights of all other people. Every Muslim must recognize and defend the rights of Jews whether in Israel or in the diaspora to live in peace, to worship, to protect their identity and to express themselves.

Today, Muslims justly condemn the cruel and aggressive policies of the State of Israel. But to condemn Israel and criticize its official Zionist ideology has nothing to do with antisemitism. The reason we object to Zionism is because that Zionism is racism. For the same reason we reject antisemitism.

Antisemitism: The Product of Neo Paganism

A basic fact that must be appreciated about antisemitism is that it is a pagan creed that no Muslim could ever espouse.

In order to make this clear, we must examine the roots of Antisemitism. This term is generally understood as meaning “anti Jewish,” but its basic meaning is a “hatred of Semitic peoples”. The Semitic peoples are basically made up of Arabs, Jews and a few other Middle Eastern ethnic groups. There is a fantastic similarity between the languages and cultures of the Semites; for example, Arabic and Hebrew are much alike.

The second largest linguistic and racial group in the world is the Indo-European community of nations. Most of the countries of present day Europe have Indo-European roots.

The pagan war god Wotan, one of the symbols of pagan barbarism and bigotry.

All these various civilizations have had their prophets who proclaimed the existence and the unity of God and made His commands known. But when we examine recorded history, we see that Indo-European peoples from ancient times always believed in paganism. The Greek and Roman civilizations, the Teutons, Vikings and other Barbarian peoples living in southern Europe at that time were all polytheistic pagans. For this reason, these communities remained completely without moral guidance. Violence and savagery were regarded as praiseworthy; homosexuality and adultery were widely practiced. (The most vital historical representative of Indo-European civilization was the Roman Empire, and we must not forget that it was a savage society that delighted in seeing people torn apart in the arenas. )

These peoples who ruled Europe encountered monotheism through Jesus Christ, a prophet sent to Semitic people. Sent as a prophet to the children of Israel, the teaching of Jesus spread throughout Europe in the course of time and all the formerly pagan peoples gradually accepted Christianity.

But in the 18th and 19th centuries, with the weakening of Christianity and the growth of ideologies and philosophies that promoted the rejection of religion, a weird current of thought circulated in Europe- Neo-Paganism. The leaders of this movement claimed that European societies must reject Christianity and return to ancient pagan beliefs. According to the adherents of Neo-Paganism, the way European societies understood morality in ancient pagan times (i. e. , a warlike, pitiless, bloodthirsty, unbounded barbarous morality), was much superior to the morality they adopted when they accepted Christianity (i. e. , a humble, compassionate, peace-loving and religious morality).

Nietzshce was an antisemite, because he sympathized with the pagan culture of violence and despised Theistic religions.

One of the most vital representatives of this trend is also one of the greatest theorists of Fascism- Friedrich Nietzsche. He despised Christianity; he believed that it had ruined the warlike spirit of the German people, that is, it’s very essence.

The adherents of Neo-Paganism were hostile to Christianity; at the same time, they adopted a fantastic hatred for Judaism which they saw as the source of Christianity. Indeed, they saw Christianity as the disseminator of Jewish thoughts throughout the world and regarded it as a kind of Jewish plot.

So, this Neo-Paganism, on the one hand incited hostility against religion and, on the other, gave birth to fascism and antisemitism. Especially when we look at the foundations of the Nazi ideology, we can see clearly that Hitler and his confreres were, in fact, pagans.

Nazism: 20th Century Paganism

One of the greatest roles in the development of the Nazi ideology was played by a thinker by the name of Jorg Lanz von Liebenfels. Lanz fervently believed in the thoughts of Neo-Paganism. He was the first person to find in ancient sources the swastika which was later to become the symbol of the Nazi party. The Ordo Novi Templi (Order of the New Temple), an organization founded by Lanz, devoted itself really to the rebirth of paganism. Lanz freely proclaimed that he worshiped Wotan, the imaginary “War God” of the ancient German people. He thought that the worship of Wotan was the right religion of the German people and that Germans could be saved only by returning to this religion.

Nazi ideology developed on the road prepared for it by Lanz and other devotees of Neo-Paganism. One of the most vital Nazi ideologues, Alfred Rosenberg, thought that Christianity could not provide the spiritual energy needed by the new Germany being established by Hitler, and declared openly that the German people must return to their ancient pagan religion. According to Rosenberg, when the Nazis came to power, religious symbols in churches should be removed and replaced by swastikas, a copy of Hitler’s book “Mein Kampf” (My Struggle) and swords symbolizing German invincibility. Hitler adopted the views of Rosenberg but, thinking it would cause too much of a reaction among the people, he did not place this new theory of German religion into effect. [1]

Nazis were neo-pagans who sought to ruin the Judeo-Christian ethics and convert the German society to pagan barbarism.

Nevertheless, during the Nazi regime, some vital practices of Neo-Paganism were instituted. Shortly after Hitler came to power, the holy days and feasts of Christianity started to be suppressed and replaced by the holy days of pagan religions. At weddings, oaths were sworn to such imaginary gods as “Mother Earth” and “Father Sky”. In 1935, students in schools were forbidden to say Christian prayers and later, lessons with any Christian content were completely discontinued.

Hitler once revealed his attitude toward Christianity when he bluntly stated that religion is an:

…organized lie [that] must be smashed. The State must remain the absolute master. When I was younger, I thought it was necessary to set about [destroying religion] …with dynamite. I’ve since realized there’s room for a small subtlety …. The final state must be … in St. Peter’s Chair, a senile officiant; facing him a few sinister ancient women… The young and healthy are on our side … Our peoples had previously succeeded in living all right without this religion. I have six divisions of SS men absolutely indifferent in matters of religion. It doesn’t prevent them from going to their death with serenity in their souls. [2]

As we can see, Hitler saw only one thought as having importance in the spiritual realm: the thought that would lead people to “go to their death with serenity in their souls”. He found it in abundance in such pagan concepts as “the German spirit” and “honor in battle”. He saw monotheistic religions as beliefs that must be “ruined with dynamite” but, for political reasons, he acted more moderately.

The Nazi hatred for Jews was a part of this anti-Theistic ideology. Nazis who despised Christianity saw it as a “Jewish plot. ” That Jesus Christ, a prophet of Israeli origin, should be loved and revered by Germans, who regarded themselves as the “master race”, was for them unthinkable. For the Nazis, it was not a prophet of Israeli origin that would be a guide for Germans, but the barbarous and cruel warriors of pagan German culture.

So, this is the real truth about Nazism and antisemitism in general. Today, the leaders of antisemitism are various Neo-Nazi and Fascist groups. If we look at them, we see immediately that every one of them has an anti-religious ideology and what they say is based on pagan thoughts.

Antisemitism And Every Kind Of Racism Is Contrary To Islam

From the facts that we have examined so far, the following is clear:

Antisemitism is an anti-religion ideology that has its roots in Neo-Paganism. Therefore, it is unthinkable that a Muslim would espouse antisemitism or feel sympathy for this ideology. Anti-Semites have no respect for Abraham, Moses or David who were blessed prophets chosen by God to be examples for humanity.

Antisemitism and other kinds of racism (eg. prejudice against Blacks) have no place in right religion; they are perversions arising from various ideologies and superstitions.

Furthermore, when we examine antisemitism and other forms of racism, we see clearly that they promote thoughts and a model of society that is really contrary to the moral teachings of the Qur’an, For example, at the root of antisemitism lie hatred, violence, and lack of compassion. An anti-Semite may be so cruel as to support the murder of Jewish people without distinguishing between women, children and the aged, and condone their being subjected to torture. But, the moral teaching of the Qur’an enjoins like, compassion and mercy for all people. It also commands Muslims to show justice and be forgiving even to their enemies.

On the other hand, anti-Semites and other kinds of racists balk against living together in peace with people of different race or creed. For example, German racists (Nazis) and Jewish racists (Zionists) were opposed to Germans and Jews living together; each side rejected this in the name of their respective race as a degeneration. But, in the Qur’an, there is not the slightest distinction between races; the Qur’an advises that people of different faiths live together in the same society in peace and happiness.

According to the Qur’an, Muslims, Jews and Christians Must Live in Friendship

Jews and Christians (called in the Qur’an the “people of the book”) are much closer to Muslims than idolaters (pagans or the atheists). The people of the book, like Muslims, believe in one God and are subject to His commands.

In the Qur’an, there is a significant difference between the people of the book and the idolaters. This is especially emphasized in the area of social life. For example, it is said concerning the idolaters: “(they) are unclean, so after this year they should not come near the Masjid al-Haram. ” (Surat at-Tawba: 28) Idolaters are people who know no divine law, have no moral precepts and who can commit every kind of degrading and perverse deed without hesitation.

But the people of the book, while they rely basically on God’s revelation, have moral precepts and know what is lawful and what is not. For this reason, if one of the people of the book cooks some food, it is lawful for Muslims to eat it. In the same way, permission has been given to a Muslim man to marry a woman from among the people of the book. On this subject God commands:

Today all excellent things have been made lawful for you. And the food of those given the Book is also lawful for you and your food is lawful for them. So are chaste women from among the believers and chaste women of those given the Book before you, once you have given them their dowries in marriage, not in fornication or taking them as lovers. But as for anyone who disbelieve, his actions will come to nothing and in the hereafter he will be among the losers. (Surat al-Mai’da: 5)

These commands show that bonds of kinship may be established as a result of the marriage of a Muslim with a woman from the people of the book and that those on each side of the union can accept an invitation to a meal. These are the fundamentals that will ensure the establishment of equitable human relationships and a pleased communal life. Since the Qur’an enjoins this equitable and tolerant attitude, it is unthinkable that a Muslim could take an opposing view.

Monasteries, Churches And Synagogues Must Be Respected

Temples that deserve respect: A church. . .

Another vital fact we learn from the Qur’an is that Muslims must respect Jewish and Christian places of worship. In the Qur’an, the places of worship of the people of the book, ie. monasteries, churches and synagogues, are mentioned as places of worship protected by God.

“…if God had not driven some people back by means of others, monasteries, churches, synagogues and mosques, where God’s name is mentioned much, would have been pulled down and ruined. God will certainly help those who help Him – God is All-Strong, Almighty. ” (Surat al-Hajj: 40 )

This verse shows to every Muslim the importance of respecting and protecting the holy places of the people of the book.

. . . and a synagouge.

Indeed, in the Qur’an, God commands Muslims not to harbor any enmity toward any people. In many verses, friendship is recommended even with the idolaters. God even refers to the idolaters at war with Muslims like this: “If any of the idolaters question you for protection, give them protection until they have heard the words of God. Then convey them to a place where they are safe. ” (Surat at-Tawba: 6)

Jews and Christians, but, are much closer to Muslims than idolaters. Each of these religions has its book, that is, they are subject to a book sent down by God. They know what is right and what is incorrect, what is lawful and what is unlawful. They know they will give an account to God and they like and revere His prophets. This shows that Muslims and the people of the book can live easily together.

Conclusion

In a Muslim’s outlook on the world, one of his basic criteria is justice. No matter whom he may oppose, he cannot depart from justice. He acts not according to his feelings, but with his reason and conscience. He removes himself from fanaticism and bigotry, and makes his decisions according to wisdom.

What God teaches us in the Qur’an about different peoples and creeds is clear:

1. The morality of the Qur’an excludes every kind of racism.

2. It is commanded in the Qur’an that, so long as they show no hostility to Islam or Muslims, a tolerant and friendly attitude must be maintained toward other religions.

It is evident that the Jews have committed many errors which the Qur’an points out, criticizes and about which it gives a warning. The crimes committed by Israel in the present day against humanity are painfully well known, but all this must not be taken by Muslims as a cause to feel hostility against Jews. The crimes committed by a group of Jews in allegiance to their Zionist ideology will never be blamed on Judaism or the Jewish people.

Our wish is that a world will be established in which people will be able to live together in peace no matter to what race or religion they belong, in which every racist perversion will be rejected, everyone’s rights will be regarded and everyone will be respected.

The only save Islam to be labeled what it is – a violence without limits pagan fascism – it is their religious status. But why the status granted to a cult of the moon around the moon god Arab Mecca Ali-Ilah and denied example, in many countries to Scientology, and those who believe that humans came from a foreign race? Islam is no more credible in his theology of the bishop, smiling followers cruise. The only difference is that Muslims worship the moon are combined with Jewish monotheism. An extravagant lies and distortion to be sure, but really absorbed by useful idiots in the world.

 

Read the Koran and Arab-Islamic history. Ignore the media and academics, and various “experts” who hypocritically proclaim the divinity of the family of Muhammad is a religion in the Judeo-Christian sense of the word. Not at all. Islam was once regarded as Islam or the cult of Mohammed. There is a lot smarter than they really face, the usual nonsense of a world, multicultural bromides that the worship of the moon that Arabic is the “relatively excellent and religious “as all that” criminal “history of Western civilization could produce.

 

Imagine if you keep thinking, mentally balanced and unipolar personality that has not been indoctrinated by the media and the educational system. . You are a blank slate, able to streamline and control their functions. You’re sitting by yourself when suddenly an Arab excitable approaches you and says:

 

“You have to obey Ali-Ilah, the moon god of Mecca Men, which was protected by the family of a person named Mohammed, who 1,400 years ago has made what is called Islam through the cult of the Moon God.

 

He said with his eyes than the moon god knows everything, and determines all going to kill someone or be in heaven – according to your mood and if he thinks he [or believe] that Muslims have been enough.

 

He recites a mouth open and you should read and memorize the book on the cult called the Koran and worship five times a day at the family home of Mohammed and the Moon God asking for forgiveness. These lines must speak ritual prostration in Arabic – a language I do not know.

 

“Please be informed by this animated humiliate Arabs must lift the buttocks in the air and the strength of his forehead on the ground. We must recognize that the moon god and all controls without value – or says the man.

 

“Get the book of worship and shows some of its contents. From what you can read the pages seem full of hatred, violence, racism, supremacy and rights to the universal rule and willpower. The energy moves the finger and the Arab man in the face and solemnly intones that the book is sacred, made by the god of the moon, and not be affected by non-believers.

 

He sits beside you and puts his hand on his knee to ease concerns about the supply of the Arab religion – with the support of a world. 6 billion people – that also requires travel at least once to Mecca, to pay huge money to institutions of the sect, the kiss of his main black rock, throwing stones at imaginary demons and run around the sanctuary . It is part of the community spirit, smiling, “he said.

 

“And it gives you the best part, as he leans towards you, barely able to contain. Not only can you have a lot of women and at least four, but his wife must obey, leaving the bed wear in public, like to be beaten [small] from you for a crime, and if you want to have sex with 9 years of age is well and that the prophet Mohammed did. Also added mischievously – young women who are sold as sex slaves or killed by the lack of respect for their parents is also acceptable.

 

You probably reckon that the Arab man crazy. It is a religion? What exactly? You would be even more perplexing, if a state employee is accompanied by a contraction of proselytizing Arab and informed that not only the cult of the moon religion in Mecca, but a dynamic mosaic “multicultural” the country, and indispensable in the context of the goal of diversity in society. He warns her never to castigate the worship of the moon in Mecca and if you do, you may find yourself in jail.

 

Being smart can stammer a few questions like “Why worship a religion? “This has given the status of reference ?”;« It is in religious or violent, crazy and irrational?”, “Should really does and what happens in the real world, so searching for an ideology be religious? “Since when racism, misogyny and the supremacy and spiritually enlightened? “….

 

All excellent questions, of course, but ultimately mean nothing. When Islam was seen as a program that has been the opposite of the teachings of Christ, the observation was reported as a banality. In today’s world where people get their information from Oprah, the news networks before Jesus Christ, and self-hatred and Media Education, a program of jihadist fascism, running for 1,400 years is declared religion.

 

Islam has no properties of a religion that is the reason, of course, declaring a part, and if the condition is so violent in its protection.

Myth # 1: Muslims are violent, terrorists and / or extremists.

This is the largest mistake in Islam, probably because of the creation of stereotypes and the continuing attacks against the media gives Islam. When a gunman attacks a mosque in the name of Judaism, a Catholic IRA guerrilla sets off a bomb in an urban area, or Serbian Orthodox militiamen rape and kill innocent Muslim civilians, these acts are used in a stereotype of faith. Are these acts attributed to the religion of their authors. But, how many times have we heard the word Islamic fundamentalist Muslims. etc. ‘linked to violence.

Politics in so-called “Muslim countries” may or may not have any Islamic basis. Often dictators and politicians use the name of Islam for their own purposes. Remember, go to the source of Islam and separate what the right religion of Islam says from what is described in the media. Islam literally means submission to God “and is derived from a root word meaning” peace. ”

Islam may seem exotic or even extreme in the modern world. Perhaps because religion does not dominate everyday life in the West, whereas Islam is considered a way of life “for Muslims and do not divide between the secular and the sacred in their life. Like Christianity, Islam permits fighting against self-defense, defense of religion, nor by those who have been evicted from their homes. It lays down strict rules of combat which include prohibitions against the population from civil hurts and ruined crops, trees and livestock.

Nowhere Islam prohibit the killing of innocents. . The Quran says: “Fight in God against those who fight you, but transgress not the limits. Allah loveth not aggressors. “(Quran 2:190)” If they want peace, then seek you peace. And trust in God, for He is the one who hears and knows all things. “(Qur’an 8:61) War, therefore, is the last resort, and is subject to rigorousconditions established by the sacred law. The term jihad literally means “struggle.” Muslims believe that there are two types of jihad. The Another jihad is the inner struggle of the soul that all wages against egotistic desires for the sake of achieving inner peace.

Misconception No. 2: Islam oppresses women.

The image of the typical Muslim woman wearing the veil and forced to stay home and forbidden to drive is very common in people’s minds. Although some Muslim countries may have laws that oppress women, this should not be regarded as coming from Islam. Many of these countries are not in any capacity of sharia (Islamic law) and present their own cultural perspective on the issue of gender equity.

Islam on the other gives men and women different roles and equity between the two states in the Quran and the example of the Prophet (peace be upon him). Islam sees a woman, single or married, as a separate individual, with the right to own and dispose of their assets and income. A wedding gift is given by the bridegroom to the bride for their personal use and to keep its own name rather than taking her husband. Men and women must dress in a manner that is modest and dignified. The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and hello) said: “The most perfect in faith amongst believers is the best fit and kinder to his wife.”

The violence of any kind towards women and forcing them against their will for anything is not allowed. A Muslim marriage is a simple legal agreement in which each party is free to include conditions. Marriage customs thus vary widely from one country to another. Divorce is not common, but it is acceptable as a last resort. According to Islam, a Muslim girl can not be forced to marry against her will: her parents simply suggest that young people reckon that may be appropriate.

Misconception No. 3: Muslims worship a different God.

Allah is simply the Arabic word for God. Allah for Muslims is the largest and most inclusive of the Names of God, is an Arabic word rich in meaning, referring to the one right God and do not assign partners to him. This is exactly the same word as the Jews, in Hebrew, the use of God (Eloh), the word that Jesus Christ used in Aramaic when he prayed to God. God has an identical name in Judaism, Christianity and Islam, Allah is the same God worshiped by Muslims, Christians and Jews. Muslims believe that Allah’s sovereignty is to be acknowledged in worship and in the promise to obey his teachings and commandments, conveyed through His messengers and prophets who were sent on several occasions and in many places throughout history. But, it should be noted that God in Islam is One and Unique. Him, the Almighty, never tired, has no son or Jesus is to have partners, they are not the powers of man “which are in other religions.

Myth 4: Islam was spread by the sword and intolerance of other religions.

Many social studies textbooks for students show the image of an Arab horseman carrying a sword in one hand and the Koran to conquer the other and the conversion of force. This, but, is not an accurate representation of history. Islam has always given fantastic respect and freedom of religion for all faiths. The Koran says: “God forbid, it is not right with respect to those who struggle, not for [faith], nor drive you out of their houses, to treat with kindness and justice with them, because God likes those who are righteous. 60:8) Freedom of religion is established in the Qur’an itself: “There is no compulsion (or coercion) in religion (Islam). The exact address of the error is manifest. “(2:256) Christian missionary, TW Arnold had this opinion on his study of the issue of expansion of Islam.” . of any organized attempt to force the acceptance of Islam on the non-Muslim, or of any systematic persecution intended to stamp out Christianity, you hear nothing. If the caliphs chosen to adopt a course of action would have resulted in Christianity as easily as Ferdinand and Isabella drove Islam in Spain, or Louis XIV, Protestantism. . . “It’s a function of Islamic law to protect the privileged status of minorities, and therefore no Muslim places of worship have flourished all over the Islamic world. History provides many examples of Muslim tolerance towards other religions : caliphOmar when entry to Jerusalem in 634, Islam granted freedom of worship for all religious communities in the city. proclamation to the inhabitants that their lives and property were safe and that their places of worship would not be taken from them, the law you questioned the Christian patriarch Sofronio accompany a visit to all holy places. Islamic also allows non-Muslim minorities to set up their own courts, which implement the laws of family established by the minorities themselves. The lives and property of all citizens in an Islamic state are considered sacred whether the person is Muslim or not. Racism is not part of Islam, the Koran does speaks of the equality of men and how all peoples are equal in the eyes of God. “Men! We have made you from a single soul, male and female and made you into nations and tribes so that they can know each other. In truth, the noblest among you before God is the greatest of you in piety. God is Knower, Aware. (49:13)

Misconception No. 5: All Muslims are Arabs

The world’s Muslim population is about 1. 2000000000. 1-5 people in the world is Muslim. There is a wide range of races, nationalities and cultures across the world – from the Philippines to Nigeria – are united by their common Islamic faith. Only about 18% live in the Arab world and the largest Muslim community in Indonesia. Most Muslims live east of Pakistan. 30% of Muslims live in the Indian subcontinent, 20% in sub-Saharan Africa, 17% in South Asia, 18% in the Arab world, and 10% in the Soviet Union and China. Turkey, Iran and Afghanistan represent 10% of non-Arab Middle East. Although there are Muslim minorities in nearly all areas, particularly in Latin America and Australia, are mostnumerous in Russia and its newly independent states, India and Central Africa. There are about 6 million Muslims in the U.S.

Misconception No. 6: The Nation of Islam is a Muslim group.

Islam and the Nation of Islam “are two different religions. AI is more of a political organization since its members are not limited to a single faith. Muslims believe that this group is one of many cults using the name of Islam for their own benefit. The only thing in common between them is the jargon, the language used by both. “The Nation of Islam” is not right, that religion should Farrakhanism be called after the name of your propogator, Louis Farrakhan.

Farakhanism Islam and differ in many fundamental ways. For example, Farakhan followers believe in racism and that human “black” was the original man and therefore superior, while in Islam there is no racism and everyone is considered equal in the eyes of God, the only difference is in its piety. There are many other examples of how the theology of teaching the nation have nothing to do withtrue Islam. There are many groups in America who claim to represent Islam and call their adherents Muslims.

Any serious student of Islam has a duty to investigate and find the right Islam. The only two authentic sources which bind every Muslim are 1. the Koran and 2. Authentic or sound Hadith. Any teachings under the mark of “Islam” which contradict or conflict with the direct understanding of fundamental beliefs and practices of Islam are the Qur’an and authentic Hadith should be rejected and religion should be considered a pseudo-Islamic cult. In the U.S. there are many pseudo-Islamic cults, Farrakhanism is one of them. An honest attitude on the part of religion, but they should not say Muslims and their religion Islam. an example of honesty is Bahaism is a branch of Islam but Bahais do not call themselves Muslims nor their religion, Islam. In fact Bahaism is not Islam that Islam is not Farrakhanism.

Misconception No. 7: All Muslim men marry four wives.

The religion of Islam was revealed for all societies and all times and can accommodate such different social requirements. Circumstances may warrant the adoption of another woman, but the right has been granted, according to the Koran, provided that the husband is fully guaranteed. No woman can be forced into such a marriage if you do not, and also have the right to exclude in your contract of marriage.

Polygamy is neither mandatory nor encouraged, but only permitted. Images of “sheikhs with harems” are not compatible with Islam, as a man is allowed up to four wives if he can meet the stringent conditions of treating each honestly and providing each with a separate authorization Housing etc. to practice polygamy is not associated with the satisfaction of pure passion. It is rather associated with compassion toward widows and orphans. It was the Qur’an that limited and place conditions in the practice of polygamy among the Arabs, which had taken ten or more women considered “property”.

It is both honest and accurate to say that it is Islam that regulated this practice, limited, it is more humane and instituted equal rights and status of all women. That the amount Koran decrees, taken together is discouragement of polygamy unless necessity for it exists. It is also clear that the general rule in Islam is monogamy and polygamy. This is a very small percentage of Muslims who practice in the world. But, permission to practice limited polygamy is only consistent with Islam’s realistic view of the nature of man and woman different needs and social problems and cultural differences.

The issue is much more than the inherent flexibility of Islam, but also honest and straightforward approach of Islam in dealing with practical problems. Rather than requiring hypocritical and superficial compliance, Islam looks at the problems of individuals and societies, and provides legitimate and clean solutions which are much cheaper than would be the case if they are ignored. There is no doubt that the second wife legally married and treated is much better than a mistress without any legal right or expermanence.

Myth # 8: Muslims are barbaric, backward people.

Among the reasons for the rapid and peaceful spread of Islam was the simplicity of its doctrine, Islam calls for faith in a God worthy of worship. It also charges the man several times to use his powers of intelligence and observation. In recent years, fantastic civilizations and universities were flourishing, for according to the Prophet (peace be upon him), “the pursuit of knowledge is an obligation for every Muslim man and a woman.” The synthesis of Eastern and Western thoughts and new thoughts with ancient, has fantastic advances in medicine, mathematics, physics, astronomy, geography, architecture, art, literature and history. Many crucial systems such as algebra, Arabic numerals, and also concept of zero (vital to the advancement of mathematics) were transmitted to medieval Europe from Islam. Sophisticated instruments which make possible the voyages of discovery were developed European, including the astrolabe, the quadrant maps navigation and excellent.

Myth # 9: Muhammad is the founder of Islam and Muslims worship him.

Muhammad (peace be upon him) was born in Mecca in 570. Since his father died before his birth and his mother shortly afterwards, he was raised by his uncle to the respected tribe of Quraysh. As he grew, he became known for his sincerity, generosity and sincerity, so he was wanted for his ability to arbitrate disputes. The historians describe him as cool and meditative. Muhammad (peace be upon him) has a deeply religious nature and had long detested the decadence of his society.

It became his habit to meditate from time to time in the cave of Hira, near Mecca. At age 40, in the exercise of meditative retreat, Muhammad (peace be upon him) received his first revelation from God through the angel Gabriel. This revelation, which continued for 23 years is known as the Koran. When he started to recite the words he heard from Gabriel and to preach the truth that God revealed himself and his small group of disciples bitter persecution which grew so fierce that in the year 622 God their gave the command to emigrate.

This event, the migration of the Hegira, who left Mecca for the city of Medina, marks the beginning of the Muslim calendar. After several years, the Prophet and his followers were able to return to Makkah where they forgave their enemies and established Islam definitively. Before the Prophet saw dies at the age of 63 years, most of Arabia was Muslim, and within a century after his death, Islam had spread to Spain west and east to China. He died with less than 5 properties in their name.

While Muhammad (peace be upon him) has been chosen to deliver the message, it is considered the “founder” of Islam, since Muslims believe that Islam is the divine guidance sent itself to all peoples before. Muslims believe that all prophets from Adam, Noah, Moses, Jesus etc. were all sent to the divine guidance for their peoples. Every prophet was sent to his own people, but Muhammad (peace be upon him) was sent to all mankind. Muhammad is the last and final messenger sent to deliver the message of Islam.

Muslims revere and honor him (pbuh) for what happened and dedication, but do not worship him. “O Prophet, verily We have sent you as a witness and a bearer of excellent tidings and a warner and as one who invites to God, by His permission and as a light bulb.” (33:45-6)

Misconception No. 10: Muslims do not believe in Jesus or other prophets.

Muslims respect and revere Jesus, peace be upon him, and await his second coming. He is considered one of the greatest messengers of God to humanity. A Muslim never refers to him simply as’ Jesus’, but always adds the words “peace be upon him” (abbreviated as (u) below). The Quran confirms his virgin birth (a chapter of the Quran is entitled ‘Mary “), and Mary is considered the purest woman in all creation. The Quran describes the Annunciation as follows:

“There! the angel said: “God has chosen you and purified you and chosen among all women of all nations. O Mary, God gives you excellent news, a word from him whose name is Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, honored in this world and the Hereafter, and one of those close to God. talk to people from his cradle and in maturity, and honest. She said: “Lord, how I can have a child when no man has touched me?” He said: “Even if, God makes what He wills. When He decrees a thing, He only says: “I know! “And it is” (Quran 3:42-47)

Jesus (u) was born miraculously by the power which had brought Adam (u) into existence without a father: “Verily, the likeness of Jesus with God is also a portrait of Adam. That He made him from dust, then said: “Be”, and he was. “(3:59) During his prophetic mission Jesus (u) performed many miracles. The Koran tells us he said:” I came to you with a Sign from your Lord: I make for you with the clay, as it were, the figure of a bird, and breathe into it and it becomes a bird by God’s permission. And I heal the blind and the lepers, raise the dead by God’s permission. “( 3:49) Neither Muhammad (pbuh) not Jesus (u) came to change the fundamental doctrine of the brief in One God brought by earlier prophets, but to confirm and renew it.

In the Quran Jesus (u) is reported as saying he had been: “To establish a right that existed before me. And to make lawful some of what was forbidden, and I came to you with a sign from your Lord, dread God and obey me. (3:50) Prophet Muhammad (sas) said: “Whoever believes there is no god but God, alone without partner, that Muhammad (PBUH) is His messenger, that Jesus is the servant and messenger of God, His word breathed into Mary and a spirit from him, and that Paradise and Hell are met, must be received by God into Heaven. “(Narrated by Bukhari).

 

Hasan A. John, Ph. Ds

In Arabic there is a saying Mosqueto can hurt the eyes of the lion. This analysis is a response to news of Malik Hasan Nidal, according to authorities, a military psychiatrist for 39 years, was in the firing at Fort Hood, which left 13 dead and 38 wounded at least before he was shot by two civilian police officers and remains hospitalized in stable condition with multiple gunshot wounds. While the authorities try to find a motivation for the attack, turning on the suspect’s actions in recent days and months, interviewing colleagues, neighbors, friends and family to gather information on the life of Hasan – and he been removed, at least in part, by the radical Islamic ideology. While the authorities warned people against drawing conclusions about the attack until more facts are known. The fine for all to investigate. Obama said both the White House as Chief of Staff Gen. George W. Casey Jr. in Fort. Hood. But what science and logic to say?

Muhammad, the Prophet of Islam 14 centuries ago, knew more of human nature and culture, not to include ahl al-Themmah Force Army. U.S. must know that the rule and apply it to the Arm Forces. This is not a call to hatred of Muslims and followers of other religions. The Muslim tradition really says: that non-Muslims (the Themmis) can not be members of the armed forces, period. This rule has been applied inconsistently. Any devout person (any religion) can follow their emotions and act according to their religious beliefs and standards. This assumption obviously can not be rejected, regardless of the proportion of those who deny this hypothesis. For example, in Israel to follow this rule, where non-Arab Muslims can be recruited into the Israeli army. In contrast, the United States the rule is not respected, where some Jews of high rank in the U.S. intelligence interests of Israel.

U.S. is an open political system, is to demolish the racism and hatred by applying the principles of equality and justice to deal with citizens on an equal footing. FBI was aware of this problem when they tried to recruit people belong to Islam as a faith a few years ago when they approached the Muslim community in Detroit. But they have forgotten that equality applies to non-Muslims will be fully respected institutions that respect those individuals. This means that, sociologically speaking, if people are willing to be full citizens, American institutions for citizens to act with disrespect, not to recognize the individual as a full citizen.

Last May 2009 in an article entitled “The loyalty is doubtful Muslims in Western countries? Posted in Site ArticlesBase, the author describes the loyalty between the Muslims, the author writes:

“To be a full citizen you must comply with the authorities when he becomes a citizen. In this new all public authorities have pledged to respect the system and its partnerships, including the military. Later, these authorities is broken if the trust is less than 20 percent of loyalty to the force arm of the nation. In the gallop, 30 percent of Muslims in Germany, France and Fantastic Britain Tire believing that [the Muslims, in fact with] a total loyalty belongs to the country we live in The disadvantage of these data, 70 percent Muslims believe that it belongs to the nation in which citizens live. [Http: / / www. ArticlesBase. Com/strategic-plotting-articles/is-muslims-loyalty-is-doubtful-in-western-nations-917328. Html]

H also stated that in the same article above: “In recent years, there was a question about Muslims, loyalty to the United Nations they live, especially in Europe, [Germany, France and Fantastic Britain], which is closer to the Arab and Muslim countries and North America [USA and Canada]. Although research conducted in Fantastic Britain, Germany and France show that 75 + percent of Muslims living in these countries consider themselves as part of the host society and their associations. The downside of research indicates that 25 per cent are not yet included in the social fabric of these nations. In other words, we must accept the argument that the policies of governments of these countries are justified. Its rationale is that the danger comes from unreported quarter (25 percent), which currently refers to security . Although security is very well respected, do not want government practices regarding national security threat to the safety of 75 percent being assimilated or semi-assimilated into the host country. ”

Back to the tale here, Muhammad, the Prophet of Islam (and the Muslim leaders of his time), did not know better to include ahl al-Themmah (non-Muslims) in the armed forces. The United States should know and learn to govern and implement the Arm Forces. Sometimes, justice and equality is like a sharp sword with two edges. Safety of U.S. citizens, civilian or armed forces should be the ultimate goal of all governmental practices. I reckon the lack of knowledge of other cultures at the time of religion between the FBI and CIA and administration staff must be reassessed according to the rule and understanding of Islam in the recruitment arm of the human soft descructing man. Otherwise, 70 percent of Muslims who believe that nations are not part of life (European) as citizens under the Gallop poll is supposed to act according to their mentality cultural assimilation theories tell us Arabs and Muslims continues humility in American foreign policy final showdown with the UN resolution 768 of Congress can influence the rage and be a reason. losers can do something to demonstrate that it is enough. I reckon members of Congress who initiated the resolution 768, in part resonsible of what happened in Texas. America needs to wake up. In psychology, but, when people react in a bloody rage and rage, become the measure of themselves, other people who feel strong mentally to do something horrible pain. The Arab proverb is right in this case. We still remember 9 / 11. Jews have never forgotten the Holocaust, never forget that Muslims U. S. did in Afghanistan, Iraq and Palestine, and even then, ignoring the justice in the world (1180 words) www. hasanyahya. com

In the 20th century, antisemitism has signed its name to fantastic disasters, one of the most horrible cruelty and murder committed by the Nazis on the Jews. In addition, in many countries authoritarian regimes have targeted Jews and subjected to cruel treatment. Fascist organizations have harassed Jews and organized deadly attacks against them. In our era, it nevertheless remains an ideology which threatens world peace and the objectives of well-being and safety of innocent people. So how about a Muslim antisemitism? The answer is obvious. Every Muslim must oppose antisemitism as he would oppose every other racist ideologies, must resist this ideology of hatred and defend the rights of Jews as he would defend the rights of all others. Every Muslim must recognize and defend the rights of Jews in Israel or the Diaspora to live in peace, worship, protect their identity and expression. Today, Muslims justly condemn the cruel and aggressive policies of the State of Israel. But, to condemn Israel and criticize official Zionist ideology has nothing to do with antisemitism. The reason why we are opposed to Zionism because Zionism is racism. For the same reason, we reject anti-Semitism. Antisemitism: The product of Neo Paganism A fundamental element to take into account on anti-Semitism is that it is a pagan belief that no Muslim can embrace. To clarify this, we must examine the roots of antisemitism. This term is understood as meaning “anti Jewish, but its basic meaning is a” hatred of Semitic peoples. “Semitic peoples are basically made up of Arabs, Jews and certain ethnic groups in the Middle East. There is a fantastic similarity between the languages and cultures of the Semites, for example, Arabic and Hebrew are very similar. The second largest linguistic and racial group in the world is the Indo-European nations. Most European countries now have Indo-European roots. pagan war god Wotan, one of the symbols of pagan barbarism and intolerance. All these various civilizations have had their prophets who proclaimed the existence and oneness of God and make known his orders. But when we look at recorded history, we see that the ancient Indo-European has always believed in paganism. The Vikings Greek and Roman civilizations, the Germans and other barbarians living in southern Europe at that time, all polytheistic pagans. For this reason, these communities remained completely without moral guidance. Violence and savagery were worthy of praise, homosexuality and adultery were widely practiced. (The most vital historical representative of Indo-European civilization was the Roman Empire, and we must not forget that it was a savage society that delighted in seeing people torn apart in the arenas.) These peoples who ruled Europe encountered monotheism through Jesus Christ, a prophet sent to the Semitic people. Sent as a prophet to the children of Israel, the teaching of Jesus spread throughout Europe during the times and all peoples who have been gradually accepted pagan Christianity. But in 18th and 19th centuries, with the weakening of Christianity and the growth of ideologies and philosophies that promote the rejection of religion, a weird current of thought circulated in Europe, neo-paganism. The leaders of this movement claimed that European societies must reject Christianity and return to pagan beliefs. According to proponents of neo-paganism, the way European societies understood morality in ancient pagan (ie, a warlike, pitiless, bloodthirsty, unbounded barbarous morality) was much higher than moral adopted when they accepted Christianity (ie, a humble, compassionate, moral and religious peace-loving). Nietzshce was an antisemite, because he sympathized with the pagan culture of violence and hatred theistic religions. One of the most vital representatives of this trend is also one of the greatest theorists of Fascism, Friedrich Nietzsche. He despised Christianity, said it had ruined the warrior spirit of the German people, which is very essential. Proponents of neo-Paganism were hostile to Christianity, at the same time, adopted a fantastic hatred for Judaism which they saw as the source of Christianity. In fact, they saw Christianity as the disseminator of thoughts in the Jewish world and regarded as a sort of a Jewish plot. Thus, this neo-paganism, on the one hand, the hostility against religion and urged the other hand, gave birth to fascism and antisemitism. Especially when you look at the foundations of Nazi ideology, we can see clearly that Hitler and his brothers were, in fact, pagans. Nazism: Paganism 20th century An vital role in the development of Nazi ideology was construed by a thinker named Jörg Lanz von Liebenfels. Lanz fervently believed in the thoughts of neo-paganism. It was the first person to find in ancient sources the swastika which later became the symbol of the Nazi party. The Ordo Novi Templi (Order of New Temple), an organization founded by Lanz, devoted himself really to the rebirth of paganism. Lanz freely proclaimed that he worshiped Wotan, the imaginary “god of war” from the ancient German city. He believed that the worship of Wotan was the right religion of the German people and that Germans could be saved by returning to this religion. Nazi ideology developed in the way prepared by Lanz and other devotees of neo-paganism. One of the most vital Nazi ideologues, Alfred Rosenberg, the thought that Christianity can not provide the spiritual strength necessary for the new Germany has been made by Hitler, and has openly declared that the German people must return to their religion pagan antiquity. According to Rosenberg, when the Nazis came to power, religious symbols in churches should be removed and replaced with swastikas, a copy of Hitler’s book Mein Kampf (My Struggle) and swords symbolizing German invincibility. Hitler adopted the views of Rosenberg but, thinking it will do well to a reaction among the people, he did not place this new theory of being German religion. [1] Neo-pagan Nazis sought to ruin the Judeo-Christian ethics and convert the heathen barbaric German society. But, during the Nazi regime, some vital aspects of neo-paganism in the proceeding. Shortly after Hitler came to power, the holy days and feasts of Christianity started to be removed and replaced by the holy days of pagan religions. In weddings, oaths were sworn to such imaginary gods as “Mother Earth” and “Father of Heaven.” In 1935, students in schools was forbidden to say Christian prayers and later, lessons with a Christian content were completely discontinued. Hitler once revealed his attitude toward Christianity when he bluntly stated that religion is a: … Lie [organized] must be crushed. The State must remain the absolute master. When I was younger, I thought it was necessary to establish the destruction of the order of religion [...] dynamite. I realized that there is small room for subtlety …. The final state must be … the chair of St. Peter, a senile officiant before him a few sinister ancient women … The young and healthy are on our side … Our people have already managed to live without religion. I have six divisions of SS men absolutely indifferent in matters of religion. Do not stop going to their death with serenity in their souls. [2] As you can see, Hitler saw a single thought that is vital in the spiritual realm: the thought that people “go to death with serenity in their souls.” He found in abundance in the pagan concepts as “the German spirit” and “honor in battle.” He saw the monotheistic religions as beliefs that must be “ruined with dynamite, but for political reasons, he acted more moderately. The Nazi hatred for Jews was a part of this ideology of anti-theists. Nazis who despised Christianity saw it as a “Jewish conspiracy”. Jesus Christ, a prophet of Israeli origin, should be loved and revered by the Germans, who were regarded as the master race “, it was unthinkable for them. For the Nazis, was not a prophet of Israeli origin, which would be a guide for the Germans, but the barbarous and cruel warriors of pagan German culture. Therefore, it is the real truth about Nazism and antisemitism in general. Today, leaders of antisemitism are several neo-Nazis and fascists. If you look, we immediately see that everyone has an anti-religious ideology and what they say is based on pagan thoughts. Anti-Semitism and all forms of racism is contrary to Islam From the facts that we have examined so far, the following is clear: Anti-Semitism is anti-religion ideology that has its roots in neo-paganism. Therefore, it is unthinkable for a Muslim to embrace antisemitism or feel sympathy for this ideology. Anti-Semites have no respect for Abraham, Moses or David, who were blessed prophets chosen by God to be examples for humanity. Anti-Semitism and other forms of racism (eg, prejudice against Blacks) have no place in right religion, are perversions arising from various ideologies and superstitions. In addition, when we examine antisemitism and other forms of racism, we see clearly that the promotion of thoughts and a model of society that is really contrary to the moral teachings of the Koran, for example, the root of hatred are anti-Semitism, violence and lack compassion. An anti-Semite may be so cruel as to support the murder of Jews, without distinction between women, children and the elderly, and to prove that they are subjected to torture. But, the moral teaching of the Qur’an enjoins like, compassion and mercy for all. It also requires Muslims to show justice and forgiveness, even to their enemies. On the other hand, anti-Semitic and racist while others have been fighting against the peaceful coexistence with people of different race or creed. For example, German racists (Nazis) and Jewish racists (Zionists) were opposed to Germans and Jews living together, each side rejected this on behalf of their respective race as a degeneration. But, in the Koran, there is the slightest distinction between races, the Qur’an recommends that people of different religions coexist within the same society in peace and happiness. According to the Quran, Muslims, Jews and Christians should live in friendship Jews and Christians (called in the Qur’an the “people of the book”) are much closer to Muslims than idolaters, pagans (or atheists). The people of the book, since Muslims believe in one God and are subject to his orders. In the Qur’an, there is a significant difference between the people of the Scripture and idolaters. This is particularly vital in the field of social life. For example, he said about the idolaters: “(they) are unclean, so after this year should not come at the Al-Haram. (Surat al-Tawba: 28) The idolaters are people who know no divine law, have no moral precepts and who can do all sorts of degrading and perilous acts without hesitation. But the people of the book, while those that rely primarily on the revelation of God’s moral precepts and know what is legal and what is not. For this reason, if an inhabitant of the kitchen delivers a small food, it is permitted for Muslims to eat. Similarly, it has been given permission to a Muslim man marries a woman of the people of the book. On this subject God commands: Today, all excellent things have been made lawful for you. And the food of those given the Book is also lawful for you and your food is lawful for them. So are chaste women among the believers and chaste women of those given the Book before, once you’ve given them their dowries in marriage, not in fornication or taking them as lovers. But as for those who disbelieve, his actions will not work and in the Hereafter he will be among the losers. (Surah Mai’da: 5) These commands show that family ties can be established following the marriage of a Muslim woman of population structure and the two sides of the Union can not accept an invitation to a meal. These are the foundations for the establishment of equitable human relationships and a pleased life. Since the Qur’an enjoins this equitable and tolerant attitude, it is unthinkable that a Muslim can have an opposite view. Monasteries and churches and synagogues should be respected The temples that deserve respect: a church. . . Another vital fact to learn the Koran is that Muslims must respect Jewish and Christian places of worship. In the Qur’an, the places of worship of the people of the Book, ie. monasteries, churches and synagogues are mentioned as places of worship protected by God. ”… If God had not driven some people back by others, monasteries, churches, synagogues and mosques, where God’s name says a lot, was shot down and ruined. God will certainly help those who help – surely God is strong and powerful. “(Surat al-Hajj: 40) This verse shows all Muslims the importance of respecting and protecting the holy places of the people of the book. . . . and synagouge. In fact, the Quran, God commands Muslims not to have any animosity towards anyone. In many verses, friendship is recommended, even with the idolaters. God even refers to the idolaters at war with Muslims like this: “If one of the idolaters seek protection, give them protection until they heard the words of God. Then take them to a place where they are safe. “(Qur’an Tawba: 6) Jews and Christians, but, are much closer to Muslims than idolaters. Each of these religions has its book, that is, they are subject to a book revealed by God. They know what is right and what is fake, what is lawful and unlawful. They know they have to answer to God and like and revere His prophets. This shows that Muslims and people of the book can live easily together. Conclusion In a position in the Muslim world, one of his basic criteria is justice. No matter whom they oppose, can not depart from justice. He does not act according to their feelings, but with his reason and conscience. Is removed from fanaticism and intolerance, and makes its decisions based on wisdom. God teaches us in the Qur’an about the people and religions is clear: 1. The morality of the Qur’an excludes any form of racism. 2. He was ordained in the Qur’an that, provided they show no hostility towards Islam and Muslims, a tolerant and friendly attitude must be maintained toward other religions. It is clear that the Jews have committed many errors that the Koran says, criticism and giving you a warning. The Israeli crimes against humanity today are only too well known, but this should not be taken by Muslims as a cause to feel hostility against Jews. The crimes committed by a group of Jews in the Zionist ideology of loyalty to his guilt will never be on Judaism or Jewish people. Our hope is that the world was made in which people can live together in peace, regardless of race or religion they belong, which may become available all racist perversion rejected, the rights of all are considered to have everyone be respected.

Horse is an vital and valuable member of the mammalia. Among the earliest evidence of the importance of the horse to human culture are the unearthed wall paintings in the caves of Lascaux, in southern France, dating around 30,000 B. C. The horse first became useful in welfare sometimes before 1500 B. C. when Mesopotamian people started to use horses to pull their chariots. There is but a question rose by Canon Taylor in his Origin of the Aryans (p. 161), whether the horse was at first used for drawing chariots or for riding. He, and William Ridgeway (Academy of 3rd January, 1891) says that, “At first the horse was very small and incapable of carrying man and that it was after generations of domestication under careful feeding and breeding that the horse became of sufficient size to carry man on his back with ease. ” According to Max Muller, it appears from the Vedas that, in India, it was used both for chariot-driving and riding.

The thoroughbred racehorse, whose remote ancestor, Eohippus, was a small, hoofed quadruped about the size of a fox, is the most gorgeous animal bred by man. By a careful process of selection through the race-course test over a period of two hundred and fifty years, a noble and courageous beast has been fashioned in the hands of skilled breeders, from an original blend of the imported, pure-bred Arabian, and so called Turkish or Barbary sires, and the English hybrid mares existing in Europe at the end of 17th century.

The earliest dates for horse-racing have not yet been confirmed. Such contests were but held in Babylonian, Syria and Egypt. Clay tablets excavated in Cappadocia in Asia Minor, written in 1400 B. C. reveal on the training of horses for racing. The four horse chariot races were introduced into Olympic Games of Greece in 23rd Olympiad, or about 664 B. C. It was 33rd Olympiad that the race for mounted horses was first introduced about 624 B. C. , and the first race for saddled horses was held in the games of 564 B. C.

Horse-racing is derived from warfare, chariot racing, and the chase, and it is not without significance that, at the time of the Roman occupation of Britain, Queen Boadicea and her people, the tribe of the Iceni, lived on Newmarket Heath and that their gold and silver coins were stamped on the reverse side with the effigy of a horse. The earliest horse-race in England, of which a record still exists, took place at Netherby in Yorkshire in about A. D. 210 between Arabian steeds brought to Europe by the Roman Emperor Septimus Severus Alexander, who made special arrangements for the shelter and training of these delicate horses. In the reign of King Richard I, the horse race became a fashionable pastime for the barons and knights. It was not until the reign of King Henry VIII that the first race-course was officially established on the Roodee at Chester in 1540, and an annual prize first instituted, which took the form of a silver bell; and moreover this monarch did much to improve the royal studs and the breed of the horse in general throughout the country.

The Arabian is regarded as the oldest pure breed, but its exact origins remain unproven for lack of scientific evidence. Antique sculpture and ancient rock drawings depicting horses of Arabian appearance found in the Arabian peninsular, as well as wall inscriptions in Egypt, confirm that an Arabian type has existed in the Middle East for well over 3000 years. These Eastern or Oriental, horses are considered to be the taproot stock of all Southern hot-blooded equines, as opposed to the Northern cold-blooded.

As an ancient pure breed the Arabian is extremely prepotent, and for centuries has been used up-grade, with the result that there is hardly a breed of light horse that does not contain some Arab blood – the most outstanding breed to evolve from Arabian sources is the Thoroughbred. The foundation stock was an admixture of eastern mares and stallions, and Gallowavs and other British horses. Three phenomenal stallions -The Darley Arabian, The Godolphin Arabian and the Byerley Turk – dominated Thoroughbred ancestry, and every Thoroughbred traces in the male line to just these three.

Originally most Arabians were nomadic. With a climate of extremes, scarcity of food, and the hard work expected of horses, it was a cast of survival of the fittest. In the days when the tribes were constantly at war or raids were a regular occurrence, the Arab relied on the speed and endurance of his mount for his very survival. Mares were used for forays against enemies, as stallions could not be relied upon to remain silent, and the Arabian mare thus became a most treasured possession of their owner.

When fighting the rider carried a lance (which in some Northern tribes could be as much as 6 meters long) and the mare had to be extremely agile, able to stop dead in her stride, spin on her hocks, and dart off again. The mares were kept tethered in the Bedouin camps and sometimes shared a tent with their master. Centuries of living in close proximity with humans have endowed the Arabian with an exceptional ability to form strong companionships with people. It is probable that there were no horses in Arabia prior to the Christian era, and that they are direct descendants of the wild Libyan horse of North Africa, which was domesticated in Egypt. Ridgeway states the kings of Egypt had these horses 1500 years B. C. , and they probably came to Arabia through Palestine between the 1st and 6th centuries.

According to Encyclopaedia Americana (14:391), “Horses start to appear in Arabia in the 1st century B. C. , and by the time of (Prophet) Muhammad a distinct and unique type of Arabic horse had evolved. ” The Prophet used horses to fantastic effect in the holy wars. They proved quicker and more maneuverable than camels. It was the Prophet who directed that horses should be bred by the faithful, so that they would be better prepared to gallop out and spread the Faith of Islam. The order from the Prophet, enshrined in the Koran meant that horse breeding started to spread among the Bedouin and the right Arabian breed started. Historian Ibn Khallikan (3:476) writes that “We know that in the 12000 Berber cavalry who disembarked in Spain under the command of Tariq bin Zihad, there were twelve Arabian horses. Hence the Arabian horses introduced into the West. ” Thus, Arab became the home of England’s Derby.

The common Arabic word for horse is faras, whether stallion (fahl) or mare; as a collective al-khayl. The word khayl for horse occurs five times in the Koran. The title and the first verse of Sura 79 (Those that Draw, al-naziat) and Sura 100 (The Runners, al-adiyat) are probably further references to horses. The title of Sura 37 (Those who Dress the Ranks, al-saffat), Sura 51 (Those that Scatter, al-dhariyat) and Sura 77 (Those that are Sent, al-mursalat) may also refer to them as well.

According to the Koran: “By the adiyat that run panting, and those that strike fire dashing” (100:1-2). Most of the commentators suggest the meaning of adiyat as panting horses on the authority of Ibn Abbas.

“And (He made) horses and mules and asses for you to ride and as zinat” (16:8). The Arabic word zina or zinat means ornament, amusement, or entertainment. Hence, the horses, mules and asses, in which horses are prominent; are meant not only for riding, but breeding and racing.

The tradition has it that the first to ride a horse was Prophet Ismael. Others again claim that the Arab horses are descended from those of Solomon. The latter inherited 1000 horses from David. It is said that the tribe of Azd once came to Solomon and questioned for a present, he gave them one of the steeds, to which they gave the name zad al-rakib; from it are descended all the Arab horses.

An ancient race that came to prominence with the rise of Islam. They have bred closely guarded pure strains of hot blooded desert horses for centuries – it is said an Arab can recite the pedigree of his favorite horses going back to 600 A. D. The best horses were never sold and never left Arabia. God is said to have made the horse out of the south wind, and some Arabian horse bear the Prophet’s thumb mark on their neck, where Mohammed was supposed to have touched them

Horse Racing (sibak al-khayl or ijra al-khayl) had been a major sport and a favorite pastime in pre-Islamic Arabia. It was a part of equitation (furusiyya), regarded as essential for military training and also as an object of entertainment for the people from all walks of life. During the Islamic period the breeding, maintenance and training of horses became one of the means of facilitating the prosecution of the holy war. The Prophet regarded horse-breeding as a meritorious calling, and assigned to it a share in the booty obtained on the battle field. This religious sanction fostered a competitive attitude amongst the breeders and encouraged the augmentation of the stock, which suffered considerable depletion in the course of the wars of that time. Cavalry was in fact to become an vital factor in the military success of the Muslims.

Kunwar Muhammad Ashraf writes in Life and Conditions of the people of Hindustan (Karachi, 1978, p. 187) that, “Horse-racing was just as well loved. It had the additional advantage of the blessings of the Prophet who had prohibited other amusements and gambling in no uncertain terms, but was indulgent towards betting on horse-racing. A regular literature soon sprang up on the study of the habits, the foods, and the nourishment, the care and the training of horses, which does credit to the scientific methods of the age. It is quite reasonable to infer from these facts that the number of pedigree horses was quite large in the studs of the Sultans and the nobles. Special Arab horses were imported for racing purposes from Yamen, Oman, and Fars. Each animal is reported to have cost from one hundred to four thousand tankas. ”

It is therefore not surprising that a rich literature came into being which contained information on hippology, horse-breeding, the genealogies of horses and their various categories, on race-courses, horse-racing, farriery and equitation. No other animal evoked from the writers of the time so large a number of literary works, both in prose and in poetry. Ibn Nadim in his well-known catalogue of Arabic books, compiled in 377/987, Kitab al-Fihrist (tr. by Bayard Dodge, London, 1970, pp. 80-213), mentions the following works on the horse and on matters relating to it: Kitab al-Khayl by Abu Ubaidah (d. 210/825), Kitab al-Khayl, Kitab khalq al-Faras and Kitab al-Sarj wal-lijam by Asma’i (d. 213/828), Kitab al-Khayl by Ahmed bin Hatim (d. 231/846), Kitab khalq al-Faras by Ibrahim al-Zujaj (d. 310/914), Kitab khayl al-Kabir and Kitab khayl al-Saghir and Kitab al-Sarj wal-lijam by Ibn Durayd (d. 321/925), Kitab al-khayl and Kitab Nasab al-khayl by Mohammad bin Ziyad al-Arabi (d. 231/846), Kitab khalq al-Faras by Abi Thabit, Kitab khalq al-Khayl by Hisham bin Ibrahim al-Kirmani, Kitab khalq al-Faras by Kassim al-Anbari, Kitab al-khayl al-Sawabik by Khawlani, Kitab khalq al-Faras by Washsha (d. 325/930), Kitab al-khayl by Hisham al-Kalbi (d. 207/822), Kitab al-khayl wal-Rihan by Madaini (d. 215/830), Kitab al-Hala’ib wal-Rihan by Ahmed al-Khazzaz (d. 258/871), Kitab al-khayl bi Khatt Ibn al-Kufi by Mohammad bin Habib, Kitab al-Fursan by Abu Khalifa (d. 305/909), Kitab Sifat al-khayl wal Ardiya wa Asmaiha bin Makka wa ma Walaha by Abu al-Ashath, Kitab Akhbar al-Faras wa-Ansabuha by Abul Hasan al-Nassaba, Kitab al-khayl by Qadi al-Ashna’i, Kitab al-khayl by Attabi, Kitab al-khayl by Utabi (d. 228/843), Kitab al-khayl al-Kabir by Ahmed bin Abi Tahir (d. 280/894) and Kitab Jamhara al-Ansab al-Faras by Ibn Khurdadhbih (d. 300/904). Masudi (d. 345/950) in his Muruj al-Dhahab (Paris, 1861, 4:24-5) refers a book, called al-Jala’ib wal Hala’ib by Issa bin Lahi’a, a work which, according to him, included a detailed description of nearly every race (halba) of pre-Islamic and Islamic periods.

In the Hidayah (2:432), it is said that horses are of four kinds: 1) Birzaun or Burzun (a heavy draught horse brought from foreign countries). 2) Atiq (a first blood horse of Arabia). 3) Hain (a half-bred horse whose mother is an Arab and father a foreigner), and 4) A half-bred horse whose father is an Arab and whose mother is a foreigner).

Long maydans (hippodromes) were set apart for this purpose in Arabia. According to Hilayat al-Fursan fi Shi’ar al-Shujan (Leiden, 1872, p. 142) by Ibn Hudhayl, “Islam forbade gambling (maisar) but allowed the placing of wagers on archery (nasal), foot-racing (qadam) and horse-racing (hafir)” The Egyptian scholar Isa bin Lahiah (d. 762) is already credited with a book entitled al-Jala’ib wal Hala’ib in which he mentioned every race, where horses were run in pre-Islamic and Islamic times. The work of al-Asma’i, Kitab al-khayl (ed. Haffner, Vienna, 1875) and Kitab al-Sarj of Abu Ubaidah are very rich to provide the relative informations.

According to Fadl al-khayl (p. 389) by ad-Dimyati (1217-1306), “Contrary to the hadith of the Prophet which permitted competitions with camel, horse and arrow (khuff, hafir, nasl), some people even contented that racing for stakes was permissible only for horses, as this was what the Arabs of ancient were accustomed to. ” We may also quote what ad-Dimyati has to say in the 5th chapter of his Fadl al-khayl that, “Ibn Banin (1181-1263) has mentioned in his book that the Messenger of God raced horses with garments that had come to him from Yamen as stakes. He gave the winner (sabiq) three, the second horse (musalli) two, the third horse one, the fourth horse one dinar, the fifth horse one dhiram, and the sixth horse a rod (qasabah). He said: “May God bless you and all of you, the winner (sabiq) and the loser (fiskil)”.

Abul Hasan Ahmad bin Yahya bin Jabir al-Baladhuri, Ibn Sad, al-Waqidi, Abd al Muhaymin bin Abbas bin Sahl bin Sad, his father (Abbas), his grandfather (Sahl), who said: “(Once) when the Messenger of God raced horses, I was riding on his az-Zarib. He gave me a Yamenite cloak. ”

He (al-Baladhuri) said: I have been told by Muhammad bin Sad, al-Waqidi, Sulayman bin al-Harith, az-Zubayr bin al-Mundhir bin Abi Usayd, who said: “Abu Usayd as-Saidi raced on the Prophet’s horse Lizaz, and he gave him a Yemenite garment. ”

Al- Khuttali reports in his book a tradition of Ibn Lahiah, Bakr bin Amr, Ibrahim bin Muslim, Abu Alqamah, the client of the Banu Hashim (stating) that the Messenger of God had ordered the horses to be raced, and he place up as prizes for them (sabbaqaha) three bunches of dates from three palm trees. He gave one bunch to the winner, one to the second horse, and one to the third horse. They were fresh dates. ” (vide Fadl al-Khayl by ad-Dimyati)

According to Dar-Qutni (2:552), “Sanjah was another horse the Prophet used to ride on. Once it was made to have a race. It won and the Prophet was much delig
