Muslim Slander

Reader comment on item: "A Corrective to the Pipes Worldview"

Submitted by Lance (United States), Aug 29, 2005 at 19:04

I have found that Muslims will slander you and your factual conclusions. This is just a confirmation that Islam is intolerant of other forms of government and religions. Just check out the Muslim sermons coming from the heart of Islam: http://www.truthandgrace.com/muslimintolerance.htm

As for the one or two verses in the Qur'an that might show tolerance toward Jews and Christians, here are the words from Muhammed on his deathbed as recorded in the Haddiths.

Volume 2, Book 23, Number 472:
Narrated 'Aisha:
Allah's Apostle in his fatal illness said, "Allah cursed the Jews and the Christians, for they built the places of worship at the graves of their prophets." And if that had not been the case, then the Prophet's grave would have been made prominent before the people. So (the Prophet ) was afraid, or the people were afraid that his grave might be taken as a place for worship.
