The Islam of Muhammad

Submitted by Lactantius Jr (United Kingdom), Dec 23, 2010 at 18:00

Muhammad was Islam personified, he was Allah's sole spokesman, and he set the genetic code for Islam. Violence was foundational to Islam and remains deeply embedded in it, with most of the many violent Qur'anic verses commanding unending violence and warfare against non-Muslims, and being open-ended, they are Allah's eternal, unchanging word to his servants. Muhammad was the archetypal Islamic terrorist, saying of himself and his violent career, "I have been made victorious with terrorism." Sahi Bukhari V4B52N220 "I shall terrorise the infidels. So wound their bodies and incapacitate them, because they oppose Allah and his apostle." Quran Surah 8:12 "Killing unbelievers is a small matter to us." al-Tabari 1X:69 "Paradise lays under the shade of swords." Sahi Bukhari V4B5N73 "The believers fight in Allah's cause, they slay and are slain, kill and are killed." Qur'an Surah 9:111 "Muhammad said, 'You are commanded to carry out jihad against the unbelieving infidels until they submit to Islam." Qur'an Surah 47:4 "I have been commanded to fight against people till they testify to the fact that there is no god but Allah, and believe in me (that) I am the messenger and in all that I have brought." Muslim C9B1N31 "So, fight them until all opposition ends and the only religion is Islam." Qur'an 8:39 "The infidels should not think that they can escape. Prepare against them whatever arms and weaponry you can muster so that you may terrorise them. They are your enemy and Allah's enemy." Qur'an 8:59 "Muhammad said 'I am al-Mahi (the obliterator) by whom unbelief would be obliterated.' " Muslim Book 030 Number 5810

The Qur'an has this to say about Muhammad the prophet of Islam, "Ye have indeed in the apostle of Allah a beautiful pattern of (conduct) for any one whose hope is in Allah and the final day; and who engages much in the praise of Allah ." Surah 33:21 "And verily, you (O Muhammad SAW) are on an exalted standard of character." Surah 68:4 with Muhammad saying the following words during his last sermon on 7th.March 632AD in Mecca, "I am leaving you with the book of Allah (the Qur'an), and my Sunnah (the life-style and the behavioural mode of the prophet), if you follow them you will never go astray." even saying of himself, "whoever obeys me will enter paradise."

Worldwide, many Muslims are currently engaged in terrorism and planning terrorism, Islam has not been hijacked or perverted by "radicals," they are not misunderstanding, misinterpreting or misapplying their sacred texts, rather, they have been perverted by the Islam of Muhammad the archetypal Islamic terrorist, today's Islamic terrorists are following Muhammad's sunnah, his Islam and his Qur'an. Not all Muslims are Islamic terrorists, and I am truly grateful for that, they are in fact living very much better lives than Muhammad himself lived, but it is inescapably the case that all Islamic terrorists are religiously motivated Muslims following the sunnah of Muhammad and the Qur'anic teachings of Muhammad/Allah.

Islamic scripture is the root of Islamic terrorism, and at the time of 911 Mr John Ashworth, the then US Attorney General showed he understodd Islam much better than his President, by saying, "The fundamental difference between Christianity and Islam is that the God of the Bible sent His Son to die for us, whilst the Qur'anic Allah requires Muslims sons to die for him," and that's some difference isn't it?"
