Islamic Mentality Islamic Supremacy

R-E-S-P-E-C-T, ISLAM DEMANDS IT BUT NEVER GIVES IT…….

 

Tundra Tabloids’ regular commenter, Anushirva, elucidates on Islam’s lack of respect for everyone else, all the while it demands respect by the non-believer for Islam.

Anushirvan: In the Qur’an, Christians and Jews are often referred to as among the “People of the Book,” i.e. people who have received and believed in previous revelation from God’s prophets. There are verses that highlight the “commonalities” between Christians and Muslims, and other verses that warn Christians / Jews against sliding towards polytheism (shirk) in their worship of Jesus Christ. Of course, the latter are pivotal with regards to understanding the moral uniformity Islam wants to impose on all unbelievers (i.e. including Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, Zoroastrians, atheists…et al.)

“If only they [i.e. Christians] had stood fast by the Law, the Gospel, and all the revelation that was sent to them from their Lord, they would have enjoyed happiness from every side. There is from among them a party on the right course, but many of them follow a course that is evil” (5:66).

“Oh People of the Book! Commit no excesses in your religion, nor say of God anything but the truth. Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, was (no more than) a messenger of God, and His Word which He bestowed on Mary, and a spirit proceeding from Him. So believe in God and His messengers. Say not, ‘Trinity.’ Desist! It will be better for you, for God is One God, Glory be to Him! (Far exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is God as a Disposer of affairs” (4:171).

“The Jews call ‘Uzair a son of God, and the Christians call Christ the son of God. That is but a saying from their mouth; (in this) they but imitate what the unbelievers of old used to say. God’s curse be on them; how they are deluded away from the Truth! They take their priests and their anchorites to be their lords in derogation of God, and (they take as their Lord) Christ the son of Mary. Yet they were commanded to worship but One God: there is no god but He. Praise and glory to Him! (Far is He) from having the partners they associate (with Him)” (9:30-31).

Thus, Islam in general does not acknowledge the right for any other doctrine to exist on this planet. The Quran is quite adamant about it, as the above mentioned verses demonstrate. The general gist of these verses is that Allah is the only rightful deity to have ever existed, and that his message was readily available for everyone to swallow unadulterated from the very beginning of Mankind, but “what do you know, those wretched Jews and Christians started interpreting his message to fit their own needs, corrupting and skewing the real message Allah wanted to bestow on humanity as a whole !”

That is basically the main reason why both Jews and Christians are called ‘people of the book’ but are not commanding equal respect in Muslim-dominated lands and why they are still intermittently subject to persecution in these countries: they are regarded as deliberate distorters of “the universal truth of Islam”. Quite simple, really. Muslim logic therefore dictates that what can be applied to Jews and Christians, will necessarily have to apply to all other non-believers, as a consequence. Which is why Islam can be called an inherently discriminatory totalitarian ideology that wants to impose universal uniformity. This is the basic essence of Islam, this explains why the OIC wants to limit your free speech under the guise of protection against the defamation of ‘religions’.

  1. ‘Uzair??? Looked this up, and they mean Ezra. Another Koranic invention–Ezra is an important persona in Jewish history, but Jews don’t worship him. This one’s right up there with the Moses-was-Jesus’-uncle claim.

    Uzair (or Uzayr) is Arabic for Ezra, just as much as Issa is Arabic for Jesus, Ibrahim is Arabic for Abraham or Yusuf is Arabic for Joseph,…etc. Second of all, these verses are taken straight from the Quran, this is not something I made up. The Quran explicitly denounces both Jews AND Christians for their reverance of Abrahamic figureheads alongside God, which in Islam is regarded as idolatry / polytheism, (Arabic: shirk) and is considered de facto kuffar, disbelief, simply because it is un-Islamic. the core concept of Islam is called Tawhid. It is the religion’s most fundamental concept and holds Allah is one and unique. The Qu’ran asserts the existence of a single and absolute truth that transcends the world; a unique, independent and indivisible being, who is independent of the entire creation. The indivisibility of Allah implies the indivisibility of Allah’s sovereignty which, in turn, leads to the concept of a just, moral and coherent universe, as opposed to an existential and moral chaos. Similarly, the Qur’an rejects the concept of duality of Allah. Allah according to Islam is a universal God, rather than a local, tribal or parochial one and therefore is an absolute. In other words, only Allah can be divine, only Allah has divine attributes, no mortal being can claim divine status or can claim that he is godlike. To worship Abrahamic figureheads or even Jesus as the son of God, is resorting to shirk according to Islam, and therefore dilutes the indivisible divine status of the monotheistic Supreme Being that is called Allah. Shirk counteracts Tawhid, and is therefore sinful in Islam. When I go back to earlier statements I have made above , it is clear that Allah is NOT the same as the Christian or Jewish God, and this is exactly what the Quran emphasizes all the time: Islam states that Allah IS the one and only transcended Truth that has ever existed and that will forever exist and that both Jews and Christians have deliberately distorted his message for their own benefit, turning their attention away from the one and indivisible Truth to occupy themselves with revering Abrahamic figures that claim divine attributes alongside their monotheistic God. The Trinity, as known by Christians, is de facto considered shirk in Islam. Shirk is a pivotal determinant with which Muslims can decide who is in fact a Muslim and who is a kafir !

    “Say (O Muhammad): “He is Allah, (the) One, The Self-Sufficient Master, He begets not, nor was He begotten; And there is none co-equal or comparable unto Him.” (Sura 112:1-4)
    “He is the First and the Last, the Evident and the Immanent: and He has full knowledge of all things.”(Sura 57:3)

    The Qur’anic passages Sura 34:20-24, Sura 35:40 and Sura 46:4 provide a basic understanding of the serious nature and consequences of assigning partners or equals to Allah, a sin known in Islam as Shirk. Allah will forgive any sin except a person who dies while committing Shirk. In fact, shirk is also applicable to Shi’ites, for instance, because Shi’ite mullahs are considered infallible by their followers, which (according to Sunni scholars) grants them a divine status that is at variance with Tawhid and is considered equally kuffar ! The same also applies to Sufism, because it adheres to esoteric ritualism within Islam.

  3. The mere fact that the reverance for God, Jesus, Mary and others (like Catholic Saints) in Christianity is commonly expressed all throughout Western history and its art forms, is de facto an expression of the worst kuffar idolatry / polytheism (shirk) in the eyes of Muslims. Hence, Islam clearly distances itself from both Judaism and Christianity, again, by deliberately NOT depicting Allah or His Messenger (although with regards to the latter, some exceptions have been made once in a while, the restriction with regards to depicting Allah is however absolute !) It is clearly a statement of Moral Supremacy.

    It beggars belief sometimes that I – as an atheist, no less (!) – have to explain such things exhaustively to Westerners who consider themselves religiously inclined !

  4. When we consider the indivisible moral absolute Allah represents, we can also derive the ‘logical’ consequences from it, applicable to just about any other religion on this planet. From this innate ‘logic’, Islam equally denounces all other religions as shirk: Hinduism, Sikhism, Jainism, Buddhism, Zoroastrianism, any type of paganism, atheism, gnosticism,…et al, and therefore even Western standards and values, modernity, and any type of legal system that is at variance with Tawhid. (and which are, as a consequence, not Sharia compliant) Even the historical remnants of pre-Islamic culture, as the expression of pre-Islamic shirk have to be destroyed.

    But still, Western PC MC idiots of any creed or philosophy seem to think we can somehow find common ground with Islam ??? The OIC is proving us wrong !

    Wakey (!) wakey (!)

  5. Chana and Anushirvan: Anushirvan has simply laid his finger on Muhammad’s fundamental ignorance, dishonesty, or both about both Judaism and Christianity.
