Torture, Killings, Adult Breast Suckling, Animal Sex, Anal Sex - What?


It's really sad that people have been exposed to such strange information that they have a warped view of Muslims and Islam. Here's a comment I received recently (capitalising is his):

Pornography in CHRISTIAN COUNTRIES? Christian countries give a person the FREEDOM to WORSHIP AS THEY CHOOSE.

Islamic countries are RUN BY ISLAM and they IMPRISON, TORTURE, KILL, HARASS, AND OPPRESS CHRISTIANS AND ANYONE ELSE WHO DISAGREES WITH THEM. SHARI'A IS ENFORCED BY THE ISLAMIC STATE AND THE ISLAMIC STATE IS THE ONE ISSUING FATWAS ON ADULT BREAST SUCKLING, ANIMAL SEX, ANAL SEX GIVING IT COMPLETE PERMISSION. DO I NEED TO CITE SOURCES?

I will pick a few points from this comment.

1. You say Christian countries give a person the freedom to worship as they choose. Has that always been the case? In fact according to the Bible those who apostatize and preach the worship of other gods are to be killed. We also know John Calvin, the Christian theologian, supported the killing of blasphemers and heretics.

Not only this but isn't the hijab and niqab being banned across Christian countries? Are we not hearing calls in Christian countries who have not yet banned such religious observances for outlawing such? Are Muslims not facing sanction and threat in supposedly Christian countries for mentioning their beliefs regarding homosexuality?

As for freedom of religion under sharia - yes you have that. Muslims aren't allowed to force you to become Muslims.

2. Muslims are not allowed to oppress the dhimmi (the minority Non Muslim in an Islamic state) so all this imprisoning, torture, oppression that you state is indeed unislamic:

Whoever killed a Dhimmi will never smell Paradise [Sahih Bukhari, No 3166]

Prophet Muhammad also said said:

“Verily whoever oppressed a Dhimmi (a non-Muslim under Muslim rule), took from his rights, or took from him unjustly, then I am his opponent on judgment day…” [Ibn Hajar al Aslam, Muwafaqat al Khabar, Number 184/2] (Sourced from Mustafa Zayed’s Book Refutation of Robert Spencer)

*Dhimmi refers to “A non-Muslim living under the protection of an Islamic government” [Hilali/Khan's Glossary from their Translation of the Holy Quran]

3. As for fatwas on 'adult breast feeding' and 'anal sex' - a rogue 'fatwa' is not what Muslims base Islam on. Islam is clearly defined. We know anal sex is not allowed in Islam but Christianity seems to have no prohibition on it. As for a fatwa on adult breast feeding - I assume you are talking about this, the issuer of the said fatwa actually retracted it and apologised.

My advice

PLEASE research Islam with an open mind and stop relying on hate sites for information on Islam - oppressing, torturing and butchering dhimmis is not allowed in Islam. Neither is anal sex. NEVER take hate sites as an authority on what Islam teaches.

Christians having dreams and converting to Islam:

Invitation to Islam

Jesus taught people to do the Will of God (according to Mark 3:35) in order to become his brothers, mothers or sisters. A Muslim means one who submits to the Will of God. Do you want to become a brother of Jesus? If yes, become a Muslim. Now is the time.
