The Authorization of Honor Killing in Islam

THE AUTHORIZATION OF HONOR KILLING IN ISLAM

Honor Killing is Islamic! It is, therefore, absolutely vital to expose the lie propagated by Muslims that Honor Killing is not Islamic. Honor Killing is not only Islamic but it is also deeply entrenched in the teachings of the Qur’an. Islamic sources themselves provide abundant evidences to substantiate the fact that Honor Killing is sanctioned in its theology. We will provide irrefutable evidences to prove how the Qur’an nurtures and grooms the Muslim mind to murder in the name of Honor.

Honor Killing is the shocking murder committed by Muslim family members. The perpetrators in every case are related to the victim. Honor Killing is a family collaboration. And the victim is either the sister or daughter or other closely related woman. The crime is usually carried out by the fathers, brothers or uncles of the victims. However, mothers have also participated in Honor Killing. The victim is often killed in a cold-blooded manner. These barbaric killings are executed for the single purpose of saving the honor of the family. Honor Killing is a manifestation of a global phenomenon among Muslims.

The term Honor Killing is an insult to the victims. There is no honor in murder. We use this term simply for the purpose of identifying the Islamic origin of this crime. The primary purpose of this article is to alert those who are ignorant of Islam. Many are unaware of the fact that Honor Killing is based on the teachings of Allah in the Qur’an. Many are also unaware that Islam sanctions murder to maintain the family’s honor. This is as evil as it can get. Please read this article carefully. Share it with those you know. Use it to educate your family and friends. It may save a life. Silence in the face of evil is evil itself.

Provided below is a list of actions or behavior that could lead to Honor Killing in Islam:

  • Speaking with an unrelated male.
  • Engaging in extra-marital affairs.
  • Not submitting to a forced marriage arrangement.
  • Making personal choice in marriage.
  • Becoming an unfortunate victim of rape.
  • Pre-marital loss of virginity. Or even rumors regarding such behavior.
  • Wife who wants to leave her abusive husband.
  • Engaging socially with other communities.
  • Adopting a Western lifestyle

All these acts are supposed to stain the honor of the family. Therefore, family members protect the family’s honor by eliminating the cause of the stain permanently. The mere suspicion that a woman has behaved in a way that dishonors her family is sufficient to warrant an attack on her life. Of course, the above given reasons for Honor Killing are only a partial list. They are by no means exhaustive. Some conservative Muslims even consider very trivial acts as dishonorable behavior.

Killers are often given light sentences, sometimes with little or no jail term at all. In fact, in Islamic countries such as Saudi Arabia, Algeria, Jordan, Syria, Libya, Kuwait, Yemen, Lebanon, Egypt, Sudan, Gaza Strip, Tunisia, Pakistan, Nigeria and Somalia, little or no action is taken against the criminals. Since the justification for the cold-blooded murder is based on the teachings of the Qur’an and the Hadith, Islamic courts cannot prosecute the killers without taking a prior stand against Islam. Family members will defend their action by saying that they are merely following the directions provided in the ethical teachings of Islam.

Additionally, committing homicides in the name of honor is legally recognized and enshrined in the Islamic Sharia Law. As a result, Muslims are sanctioned to murder their loved ones legally in the name of honor. Article 340 of the Jordanian Penal Code states:

He who catches his wife, or one of his female un-lawfully committing adultery with another, and he kills, wounds, or injures both of them, is excused and benefits from an exemption from penalty.”

Provisions such as Article 340 exist in the Penal Code of many Arab countries. Therefore, women are unable to access justice from the legal system of many Arab nations since killing in the name of honor is articulated in the Penal Code as a valid defense for murder. Thus, Honor Killing stands as a serious barrier for justice in the Muslim world. This Islamic verdict completely ignores every one of the provisions established for the safeguard of women in Article 2 (c) of the United Nations Declaration on the “Elimination of Violence against Women.”

As usual, Muslim apologists argue that Honor Killing is a cultural vice and, therefore, it is not Islamic. This claim is a blatant lie. Muslims lie to cover the shame of this evil practice that is clearly sanctioned in Islam. If the phenomenon of Honor Killing is just a continuance of a pre-Islamic cultural practice of the Arabs, then Honor Killing would be confined only amongst the Arab Muslims. However, Honor Killing is practiced extensively by Muslims who are not Arabs culturally. For example, Honor Killing is a common occurrence in countries like Pakistan which is a non-Arabic country. It has been reported that in Pakistan and Jordan several hundreds of Honor Killings occur every year. How is it possible for non-Arabic countries to adopt this evil practice if it is truly cultural? And why is this practice confined only among the Muslims of these non-Arabic countries? If the cultural argument is true, then why is Islam unable to stop the influence of this pre-Islamic evil practice among its worshippers?

The truth of the matter is that Islam incorporated many inhumane and uncivilized practices of the ancient pagan society into its religious framework. These practices are now recognized as the laws of Allah. Allah legalized these practices in the Qur’an and became instrumental in spreading these barbaric practices globally in the name of Islam. Also, if it is cultural, why is this barbaric act not practiced by the Arab Christians? Why is this heinous act confined only to the Arab Muslims? Only Muslims practice Honor Killing because it gets its support and encouragement from the teachings of Islam.

QUR’ANIC VERSES THAT SANCTION HONOR KILLING

Let us now consider how the teachings of the Qur’an incite Honor Killing:

Surah 4:15: “If any of your women are guilty of lewdness, take the evidence of four reliable witness from amongst you against them; if they testify, confine them to houses until death do claim them. Or God ordain for them some other way.” (Yusuf Ali)

In the above Qur’anic verse, Allah gives the family head the authority to imprison for life the women of his household whom he believes to be “guilty of lewdness. Therefore, the Qur’an authorizes Muslims to take the law into their own hands and punish those whom they believe to be “guilty of lewdness.” The life-long house arrest enforced on those who are judged as being “guilty of lewdness” is actually a form of capital punishment. The authorization of Allah to imprison a woman until she dies is in reality Honor Killing on the installment. The enforcement of these punishments is usually carried out by the father, thus elevating him to the position of the law. Failure to do so will bring shame upon him in the eyes of the Muslim community. Therefore, he is compelled to act to remove that shame. However, the authorization for Muslims to act as executioners of punishment is not limited to imprisonment only.

Surah 4:89: They but wish that ye should reject Faith, as they do, and thus be on the same footing as they: But take not friends from their ranks until they flee in the way of Allah from what is forbidden. But if they turn renegades, seize them and slay them wherever you find them.” (Yusuf Ali)

According to the Qur’an, those who renegade after becoming Muslims should be seized and killed. It is a must by the divine laws of Allah. The following Hadith substantiates this ruling of Allah:

Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 52, Number 260:

Narrated Ikrima: Ali burnt some people and this news reached Ibn ‘Abbas, who said, “Had I been in his place I would not have burnt them, as the Prophet said, ‘Do not punish anybody with Allah’s Punishment.’ No doubt, I would have killed them, for the Prophet said, ‘If somebody (a Muslim) discards his religion, kill him.’

The killing of apostates is sanctioned in Islam. The greatest threat to apostates in the Muslim world comes not from the ruling authorities but from private individuals. It is the duty of all faithful Muslims to execute apostates. Once again, we can see that Allah has given individual Muslims the right to act as executioners. They are given the right to carry out the penalty of death. A good Muslim is one who acts as Judge, Jury and Executioner for the cause of Allah. In Islam, not only Muslims who leave their religion are considered as apostates but also those whose behavior goes contrary to the teachings of the Qur’an. Muhammad even had a man executed for merely consuming alcohol. And he established the following Islamic law.

Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 38, Number 4467:

Narrated Mu’awiyah ibn AbuSufyan: The Prophet said: If they (the people) drink wine, flog them, again if they drink it, flog them. Again if they drink it, kill them.

Thus, Muslims who act contrary to the teachings of Islam are endangering themselves of being viewed as apostates. In some cases, even very minor infractions such as a young woman’s refusal to wear the Islamic headscarf or desiring to wear makeup may result in Honor Killing. Therefore, even discarding the Islamic dress code can be dangerous for some. Many young women were killed just for wanting to conform to a Western lifestyle. (Chester, Phyllis: “Worldwide Trends in Honor Killings.” p. 6.)

Muslim perpetrators of Honor Killing do not recognize a woman’s right to autonomy over her own body. Islam does not consider a woman’s body as her personal possession but the property of her father, husband or other male relatives. In spite of overwhelming evidences, most people fail to recognize that Islam has much to do with the practice of Honor Killing. We cannot find a single verse in the Qur’an prohibiting this evil practice?

There is an interesting account in the Qur’an which lays the theological groundwork for Honor Killing in Islam. It narrates about the encounter of Moses with a mysterious servant of Allah who is gifted with special knowledge and with the ability to foresee the future. As such, he does things which do not seem to make sense initially, but are then justified by the explanation he provides later. One such action by the servant of Allah is the murdering of a youth for no apparent reason. However, he justified the murder by later explaining to Moses that it was feared that the boy would grow up to “grieve” his parents through “disobedience and ingratitude.” Therefore, the youth was killed so that Allah could replace the parents with a “better son.” Let us read this account directly from the Qur’an. Only the relevant quote from the Qur’an is cited here in the following verses:

Surah 18:65-81:Then they found one from among Our servants whom We had granted mercy from Us and whom We had taught knowledge from Ourselves. Moses said to him: Shall I follow you on condition that you should teach me right knowledge of what you have been taught? He said: Surely you cannot have patience with me and how can you have patience in that of which you have not got a comprehensive knowledge? Moses said: If Allah pleases, you will find me patient and I shall not disobey you in any matter. He said: If you would follow me, then do not question me about anything until I myself speak to you about it.”

So they went on until, when they met a boy, he slew him. Moses said: Have you slain an innocent person otherwise than for manslaughter? Certainly you have done an evil thing. He said: Did I not say to you that you will not be able to have patience with me? Moses said: If I ask you about anything after this, keep me not in your company; indeed you shall have then found an excuse in my case.”

He said: This shall be separation between me and you; now I will inform you of the significance of that with which you could not have patience.”

And as for the boy, his parents were believers and we feared lest he should make disobedience and ingratitude to come upon them: So we desired that their Lord might give them in his place one better than him in purity and nearer to having compassion.” (Shakir)

These Qur’anic verses lay the foundation for Honor Killing. They show explicitly that the mere perception that the child would grow up to commit disobedience and ingratitude in the future is sufficient enough to justify the killing of an innocent child. The Qur’anic verses go even further by saying that Allah would provide the parents with a better son than the one killed. The Qur’an reveals that it is of no consequence to Allah if a child is murdered for fear of becoming un-Islamic. Parents who lose such a child through murder will be rewarded. This is the basis for the justification of Honor Killing in Islam.

Let us analyze this account a little further. The servant of Allah feared that the boy would grow up to bring dishonor and shame on his family, hence the preemptive murder. Just think! This servant of Allah did not even wait for the actual act of dishonor to be carried out before killing the boy. There is no such thing as “innocent until proven guilty” in Islam. And Moses had to learn “right knowledge” from this preemptive murderer. Islam’s values are warped!

Since the servant of Allah was gifted with special knowledge to look into the future, he killed the boy before he could actually dishonor his parents. However, since ordinary Muslims do not possess special gifts of any kind, they would not know how a child would turn out in the future. Hence, they have to wait until they perceive some kind of misconduct that they could judge as bringing dishonor to the family. And then they have the divine right to eliminate the child. The above Qur’anic verses authorize parents that if they have sufficient reasons to believe that their child is deviating from the religion of Allah, they can murder that child with Allah’s blessing. Like Moses, they too have to learn “right knowledge” from Allah’s pre-emptive murderer.

So, when Muslims tells you that Honor Killing is not authorized in Islam it means either they do not know their own religion or they are lying. The above Qur’anic verses show that the very thought of bringing shame in the future is enough to issue the death warrant on a child. The following is another Qur’anic verse that contributes to Honor Killing in Islam.

Surah 4:34: Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and as to those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in the sleeping-places and beat them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great. (Shakir)

This Qur’anic verse states that men are in charge of women, being their protectors and maintainers. What happens if a man fails in his duty to keep his women (wife/wives, daughters or sisters) within the domination of Islam? What if the women in his household are simply unwilling to comply? The pressure is then turned on him by the Muslim community to subdue the women entrusted to him. Sometimes the pressure to maintain honor in an “unruly family” can become so intense that murder seems to be the only solution. Moreover, if wife-beating is permitted in Islam, can Honor Killing be far behind? If a Muslim husband is authorized by Allah to beat his disobedient wife in order to chastise her, just think what would a Muslim father do to chastise his rebellious daughter? To understand the Islamic rationale behind Honor Killing, we need to look no further than the following Qur’anic verses:

Surah 33:60-62: If the Hypocrites and those in whose hearts there is a sickness, and the scandal mongers in Madinah do not desist from their vile acts, We shall urge you to take action against them, and then they will hardly be able to stay in the city with you. They shall be cursed from all around and they shall be ruthlessly killed wherever they are seized. This has been Allah´s Way with those who have gone before, and you shall find no change in Allah´s Way. (Maududi)

Hypocrisy (Arabic: Nifaaq) means “Double-Facedness. It means a contradiction between one’s apparent and hidden self. Apparently the person is a believer but the inner self of the person is in disbelief. Hypocrisy is categorized as:

(1) Hypocrisy against Allah regarding actual faith. (2) Hypocrisy against Allah regarding the necessities of faith.

Therefore, the term “Hypocrites” in the Qur’an refers not only to those who renegade from Islam but also to those who fail to conform to the teachings/rulings of Islam while claiming to be Muslims. In the minds of the victim’s family, the “rebellious” daughter who refuses to conform to the dictates of Islam such as opting to follow a Western lifestyle or refusing an arranged marriage or running away from an abusive home is now viewed the same as an apostate. Tragically, she has to pay with her life for her disobedience to the Islamic laws of Allah. For Muslims, the law is absolute and comprehensive, and it leaves no room for individual freedom. Family relationship has no meaning under such circumstances and it is not allowed to stand in the way of Allah:

Surah 58:22: “You shall not find a people who believe in Allah and the latter day befriending those who act in opposition to Allah and His Messenger, even though they were their own fathers, or their sons, or their brothers, or their kinsfolk.” (Shakir)

And to the above list we can add “wives, daughters and sisters.” As it can be seen, the claim that Honor Killing is not Islamic because it is not mentioned directly in the Qur’an is a preposterous lie. Additionally, the fact that there are many other things which Muslims practice that are not mentioned in the Qur’an further invalidates this Muslim argument. For example, stoning to death for adultery is not mentioned in the Qur’an, yet the practice of stoning to death by the verdict of the Islamic court can be found in strict Islamic countries such as Saudi Arabia, the birth place of Islam. The same goes for circumcision.

The truth is that the perpetrators in Honor Killing find support for their crime in the principles and commandments laid out in the Qur’an and the Hadiths. It is because of these Islamic elements of support, we find that the perpetrators of this crime are exempted from punishment by strict Islamic governments. And because Honor Killing finds its support in the moral principles of Islam, many Islamic governments are unable to take the necessary steps to enact laws to criminalize the barbaric slaughtering of innocent women/girls by their family members.

Although the evil act of Honor Killing is associated with the word “Honor,” the crimes are anything but honorable. There is a pattern of gender hierarchy in Islam that culminates in violence against women. These cruel killings to save family honor have happened in the past, is still happening today and will continue to happen in the Muslim community. Honor Killing will exist as long as Islam exists. While there may be isolated incidences of others who commit such murders, the great majority of the perpetrators worldwide are Muslims. While others act on their own, the murderous actions of the Muslims are religiously sanctioned.

In spite of all the evidences proving to the contrary, Muslims still deny that Honor Killing has anything to do with Islam. This is just the same as when they deny that the acts of terrorism by Muslim terrorists have anything to do with Islam. Honor Killing can be stopped only when Muslims come to terms with the truth that it is a practice that is sanctioned in Islam. To stop a disease, you must first identify the virus. Honor Killing is merely the symptom of deadly virus. The virus is Islam.

Even if Muslims falsely claim that Islam is not responsible for Honor Killing, then it only proves that Islam is a failed system. It proves the ineffectiveness of Islam. It shows that even after more than fourteen centuries since its beginning, Islam could not prevent the evil influence of a backward culture on the mentality of the Muslims. The fact that the killings are carried out mainly by the more faithful adherents, proves that Islam is not strong enough to prevail over this cultural gender backwardness that calls for the killing of women. Does not this prove beyond doubt that Islam is a failed system?

Additionally, if it is true that it is cultural, we must then ask who is promoting and influencing this cultural practice on every succeeding generation of Muslims? None. The peoples, tribes and nationalities who lived by the rule of this culture do not exist today. Without the existence of this evil culture to influence Muslims today, can Muslims honestly put the blame on culture? Even if such culture exists today, why are non-Muslims not affected by it? The absolute truth is that the only people who promote this backward barbaric practice of Honor Killing are Muslims themselves. Muslims are the only people in the world who believe in saving the honor of their family by destroying the family. They are taught to do so by their religion.

Honor Killing has much to do with the religious influence of Islam than Muslims are willing to admit. Even if Honor Killing originated in pre-Islamic Arab tribalism, it has long since been incorporated into the religious framework of Islam. As such, it has become an acceptable practice throughout the Muslim world. The refusal of Islamic authorities to strongly denounce Honor Killing proves that this practice does not contradict the spirit of Islam.

Evidences demonstrate that the prevailing dominating spirit within Islam condones the practice of Honor Killing. Muslims do not openly acknowledge Honor Killing as Islamic for fear of a backlash by the civilized world. One of the most outstanding Islamic sources to substantiate the fact that Honor Killing is truly Islamic is the Umdat Al-Salik (Reliance of the Sojourner). Originally written in Arabic, Umdat Al-Salik is an ancient manual on Islamic law which is certified as an authentic guide to Sunni orthodoxy by Al-Azhar University. It must be noted that Al-Azhar University is the most prominent and most authoritative institute of Islamic jurisprudence in the Islamic world.

Umdat al-Salik 01.1-2 states:

Retaliation is obligatory against anyone who kills a human being purely intentionally and without right.”

The Islamic manual then continues on to state the following:

(However) not subject to retaliation (is) a father or mother (or their fathers or mothers) for killing their offspring, or offspring’s offspring.”

Thus, according to this Islamic teaching, parents who murder their daughters to save the family honor, whether owing to issues of chastity, apostasy and the like, incurs no penalty under Sharia.

THE CHRISTIAN WAY TO DEAL WITH WILLFUL REBELLION

But, how does one handle willful wrongdoers who persistently sin within a religious community? What do the teachings of Christianity say on this issue? During the first century, the Christian congregation in Corinth encountered a situation where an unrepentant man practiced fornication willfully. His conduct not only threatened the purity of the Christian congregation but it also brought shame to the Christian community. Hence, Jehovah God wisely directed that the man be removed from the congregation. This act of removing an unrepentant sinner is known as “Disfellowshipping” in Christian terminology. The person is not killed, but is removed from the Christian congregation. As such, he is no longer viewed as a fellow-believer. No Christian is permitted to associate with a disfellowshipped person.

1 Corinthians 5:11-13: But now I am writing you to quit mixing in company with anyone called a brother that is a fornicator or a greedy person or an idolater or a reviler or a drunkard or an extortioner, not even eating with such a man. For what do I have to do with judging those outside? Do you not judge those inside, while God judges those outside? “Remove the wicked man from among yourselves.”

This disciplinary action had a good effect. The congregation was protected from the corrupting influence of the sinner. And in the case of the willful sinner who was disfellowshipped from the Corinth congregation, it also benefited him. How so? Since the wrongdoer had to now choose between pursuing his sinful course and losing the loving association of the Christian congregation, the sinner was brought to his senses. He was moved to repent sincerely. On the basis of unmistakable evidences proving that the sinner had truly repented, he was later reinstated into the Christian congregation:

2 Corinthians 2:6-8: This rebuke given by the majority is sufficient for such a man, so that, on the contrary now, you should kindly forgive and comfort him that somehow such a man may not be swallowed up by his being overly sad. Therefore I exhort you to confirm your love for him.

Till today, this Bible-based practice of Disfellowshipping unrepentant wrongdoers has served to keep God’s holy name clear of reproach. It also protected the fine reputation of his people. It served to keep God’s congregation spiritually clean. However, the loving purpose behind the act of Disfellowshipping an individual is to move the sinner to repent and leave his sinful course. As for those who continue to remain unrepented even after having been disfellowshipped, they are considered as no part of the Christian congregation as long as they continue in their sinful course.

It must also be remembered that this form of discipline is administered only to those who willfully disregard the laws of God and deliberately persist in their sinful course. Many commit sin–sometimes even serious ones–which they regret deeply and beg for God’s forgiveness. And they strive hard to resist their sinful tendency. Such ones are not removed from the Christian congregation but rather they are helped to overcome their sinful course. So it does mean that each time a Christian commits a sinful act, he is automatically disfellowshipped. We worship a forgiving God.

Christians are never commanded by their God to murder their fellow Christians who turn aside from the Christian faith. And this is especially true when they are members of the Christians own family. Unlike Islam, there is absolutely no justification for Honor Killing in Christianity. The Holy Bible does not allow for this act of murder. The true Creator is aware of the fact that sinners can repent and change their ways.

Ezekiel 18:21-22: “Now as regards someone wicked, in case he should turn back from all his sins that he has committed and he should actually keep all my statutes and execute justice and righteousness, he will positively keep living. He will not die. All his transgressions that he has committed—they will not be remembered against him. For his righteousness that he has done he will keep living.”

By prematurely ending a sinner’s life, the Muslim murderers in Honor Killing are arrogantly assuming that the victim would never regret her sinful course or change her sinful ways in the future. And they are also making the bold assumption that she would not be forgiven by God. This is a clear violation of God’s mercy and forgiveness. To think that one has the right to play God and kill someone is one of the gravest sins that a human being can commit. And Islam sanctions these evil crimes of these cold-blooded murderers. Muslims are able to commit murder with an untroubled conscience because Honor Killing is directly motivated and influenced by the teachings of Allah in the Qur’an. Honor Killing is the ultimate betrayal. The reason why Muslims desperately try to shift the blame on culture and deny the approval of Honor Killing in Islam is because deep inside they know that no decent religion will authorize Murder in the name of Honor.

The prevalence of the practice of Honor Killing among Muslims shows that Islam lacks the moral fortitude to stop this barbaric practice from happening among its faithful followers. It lacks the moral fortitude of a true religion Thus, Islam is false. It is a failed religious system. Ironically, Muslims are taught to believe that they are the “best of the nations.” And they murder to maintain this religious pride.

Surah 3:110: “You are the best of the nations raised up for the benefit of men; you enjoin what is right and forbid the wrong and believe in Allah.” (Shakir)

Yes, to maintain the image of Islam, Muslims willingly kill their loved ones. Islam cannot be the religion of the true God because its fruitage is rotten to the core. It produces dangerous fruits. It creates murderers out of those who are supposed to love and protect. It bloodies the hands that once rocked the cradle. The Holy Bible identifies the true source behind Honor Killings in Islam:

John 8:44: “You are from your father the Devil, and you wish to do the desires of your father. That one was a murderer when he began.”

IS THE BIBLE MORE VIOLENT THAN THE QUR’AN?

IS THE BIBLE MORE VIOLENT THAN THE QUR’AN?

It is not uncommon these days to hear Muslims claiming that the Bible is more violent than the Qur’an. Really? Then, how do we explain all the violence committed day after day by Muslims all over the world? Where does their incentive to kill come from? It is incredible how Muslims can even come up with such an absurd allegation. What is even more bizarre than this outrageous lie is the number of Westerners who are taken in by this deception. It is really mind-boggling how people can allow themselves to become blind so easily. Many who lived during the early sixties are familiar with a well-known song entitled, “Blowing in the Wind.” A couple of verses in the song read: “How many times can a man turn his head pretending he just doesn’t see? The answer my friend is blowing in the wind.”

Yes, the answer is blowing in the wind. It is blowing all over the world where Muslims routinely murder innocent people on a daily basis in the name of Allah. And many are turning their heads pretending not to see the connection between the teachings of Allah in the Qur’an and the violence perpetrated by Muslims. And they deliberately ignore the fact that Islam is directly responsible for many of the violence that we are now experiencing around the globe. Comedian Richard Pryor once told the story about how his wife caught him red-handed in bed with another woman. He denied everything and then asked his wife: “Whom are you going to believe, me or your lying eyes?” This is exactly how the Muslims–along with the politicians and the mainstream media–are trying to fool us. They want us to turn a blind eye to the reality. And they think that by repeatedly proclaiming the lie that “Islam means peace” we will somehow become oblivious to all the violent acts committed right before our eyes in the name of Islam.

Both Muslims and Christians are on the world stage. It does not take much looking around to see which group is killing, raping, torturing and beheading in the name of its religion. If you put 100 Christians of different denominations in a room, you will find them arguing over virtually every aspect of their faith. But, you would not find them debating whether they’re supposed to be out killing cartoonists, shooting up schools, murdering some neighbors, beheading fellow-workers, taking hostages at a café, or blowing themselves up at some crowded places. Only one religion does that.

There are criminals in every society. Criminals carry out their evil crimes by submitting to their own evil desires and acting on those cravings. However, in Islam it is different. Muslims carry out their violent crimes in the name of Allah. Every beheading, every attack by suicide bombers, and every violent act that is religiously sanctioned in Islam is carried out to the accompaniment of the blood-thirsty cries of “Allahu Akbar”–the war cry of Islam. And jihadists often quote passages from the Qur’an before executing their victims. The evil crimes of the Muslims originate with Allah. The seeds of terror and the violence that we are now witnessing worldwide are sown in the Qur’an. To those who disagree that the Qur’an encourages violence, we would like them to examine the facts. Can Muslims honestly say that the Qur’an promotes peace when it teaches Muslims to slay those who leave Islam?

Surah 4:89: If they turn back, seize them and kill them wherever you may find them; and take no friend or helper from among them. (W. Khan)

When it commands Muslims to rape the women captives of war–even married ones?

Surah 4:24:Also forbidden are married women unless they are captives of war. Such is the decree of God.” (Ahmed Ali)

When it calls for the violent elimination of all other religions?

Surah 2:193: “And fight with them until there is no persecution and religion should be only for Allah.” (Shakir)

When it authorizes the complete extermination of those who do not submit to the teachings of Islam?

Surah 8:7: But Allah wished to confirm the truth by His words, and wipe the unbelievers out to the last.” (Samira)

Surah 2:191: “And kill them wherever you find them.” (Shakir)

When it command Muslims to “murder and crucify” those who “make mischief” in the land?

Surah 5:33: The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides…” (Shakir)

The open license that Surah 5:33 gives the Muslims is shocking. It opens a flood-gate of reasons for Muslims to simply kill and crucify all those whom they perceive as opposing the religion of peace. Simply questioning the teachings of Islam or Muhammad can be construed as an act of “mischief.” Yes! What about all these verses in the Qur’an? The objective of Islam is crystal clear. It is to kill all those who do not accept Allah as their God or Muhammad as their Prophet? Listen carefully to the unambiguous warning of Muhammad:

Sahih Muslim, Book 1, Hadith 31:

It is reported on the authority of Abu Huraira that he heard the Messenger of Allah say: 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 (from the Lord) and in all that I have brought. And when they do it, their blood and riches are guaranteed protection on my behalf except where it is justified by law, and their affairs rest with Allah.

Only by submitting to Islam our “blood and riches are guaranteed protection. The Qur’an contains more than a hundred verses that call for the Muslims to wage war against the infidels. Muslims who do not join the fight against the non-Muslims are branded as “Hypocrites” in the Qur’an. And these “Hypocrites” will also be targeted for slaughter if they do not share in the killings of the non-Muslims. Therefore, if you are a peaceful non-violent Muslim, you are a “Hypocrite” according to the Qur’an:

Surah 3:167: And the Hypocrites also. These were told: “Come, fight in the way of Allah, or (at least) drive the foe from your city.” They said: “Had we known how to fight, we should certainly have followed you.” They were that day nearer to Unbelief than to Faith, saying with their lips what was not in their hearts but Allah hath full knowledge of all they conceal. (Yusuf Ali)

The Qur’anic verses calling for the violent subjugation of non-Muslims are open-ended. This means that they are not restrained or limited by time. In other words, they are part of the eternal, unchanging word of Allah. Therefore, the call for warfare against the non-Muslims is just as relevant today as it was in Muhammad’s time:

Surah 8:65: “O Prophet! Rouse the Believers to the fight. If there are twenty amongst you, patient and persevering, they will vanquish two hundred: if a hundred, they will vanquish a thousand of the Unbelievers: for these are a people without understanding.” (Yusuf Ali)

Islam is not a religion of peace, it has never been. The following are direct quotes from the Qur’an. According to the Qur’an not only is warfare “ordained” for the Muslims but Allah also states that “warfare” is “good” for them:

Surah 2:216: Warfare is ordained for you, though it is hateful unto you; but it may happen that you hate a thing which is good for you, and it may happen that you love a thing which is bad for you. Allah knoweth, you know not. (Pickthall)

To deceive us, Muslim scholars deceitfully claim that Islamic wars are defensive in nature. The following Qur’anic verse belies their claim:

Surah 9:29: Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, even if they are the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission and feel themselves subdued. (Yusuf Ali)

Carefully study the commandment of Allah in the above Qur’anic verse. It does not say that Muslims should only fight against those who attack them. The Qur’an clearly commands Muslims to fight all those “who believe not in Allah” nor “acknowledge the religion of Truth.” And this means every one of us who are not Muslims.

As we can clearly see, the commandment in Surah 9:29 does not restrict the Muslims to fight only in self-defense as Islamic scholars deceitfully claim. It is an unmistakable commandment to wage offensive warfare against all those who do not recognize Islam as the religion of Truth. Therefore, doing anything which is forbidden in the Qur’an by Allah means that you have signed your own death warrant when Islam reigns supreme. The only reason why Muslims are not exterminating us today on a global scale is because of the prevailing strength of the infidels. It may not remain this way forever. But there is more to Surah 9:29.

While Surah 9:29 commands Muslims to wage warfare against the non-Muslims, this Qur’anic verse specifically singles out the “People of the Book.” The term, “People of the Book” refers to the Jews and the Christians. Muslims were commanded to fight the Jews and the Christians “until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.” The reason for Allah’s commandment to fight against the Jews and the Christians is not because they were attacking or even planning to attack the Muslims. It may shock you to learn that it was simply because the Muslims feared poverty. A new situation developed during the early days of Islam, resulting in the sudden loss of trade for the Muslims. This was because Allah decided to prohibit the pagans from entering the sacred Mosque in Mecca. And it resulted in financial loss for the Muslims.

Well, what was Allah’s solution for the financial reversal of the Muslims? Simply attack the Jews and the Christians and let them compensate for the loss of trade. This is made clear in Surah 9:28–the verse preceding Surah 9:29. We will now consider both these verses together so as to understand how the Jews and the Christians were forced to compensate for the loss of trade of the Muslims:

Surah 9:28-29: O ye who believe! Truly the Pagans are unclean; so let them not, after this year of theirs, approach the Sacred Mosque. And if you fear poverty, soon will Allah enrich you, if He wills, out of His bounty, for Allah is All-knowing, All-wise. Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, even if they are of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission and feel themselves subdued. (Yusuf Ali)

Just like a common criminal, Allah is willing to murder for money. The Tafsir (Commentary) by the renowned Muslim scholar, Ibn Kathir, provides the historical context for the purpose of revealing Surah 9:28-29.

Ibn Kathir, “The Battles of the Prophet,” pp. 183-4:

Allah, Most High, ordered the believers to prohibit the disbelievers from entering or coming near the sacred Mosque. On that, Quraish thought that this would reduce their profits from trade. Therefore, Allah, Most High, compensated them and ordered them to fight the people of the Book until they embrace Islam or pay the Jizyah. 

Allah says, “O ye who believe! Truly the pagans are unclean; so let them not, after this year of theirs, approach the sacred Mosque. And if ye fear poverty, soon will Allah enrich you, if He wills, out of His bounty, for Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise. Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, from among the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.” (Surah 9:28-29)

Therefore, the Messenger of Allah decided to fight the Romans in order to call them to Islam. (End of Quote)

As we have learned, the Messenger of Allah waged warfare against the Jews and the Christians not because they were attacking or planning to attack the Muslims but simply because of Allah’s commandment in Surah 9:29. Muslims are clearly authorized to wage unilateral wars against the Jews and the Christians. It was Allah’s easy solution to reimburse the Muslims. Christians who refused to convert to Islam have to pay a hefty sum as compensation for their lives. And this is not a one-off thing. The monetary compensation has to be paid on a regular basis as long as they live under the Muslim yoke. Hence, the only reason the Christians were not killed is because the Muslims needed a steady flow of cash to make up for the loss of their income. Dead Christians cannot be extorted on a regular basis. And Allah knew that. Therefore, it would be a lie to conclude that Allah was more merciful towards the Christians as Muslim apologists deceitfully claim.

This form of protection money that Allah shamelessly extorts from the Christians is known as the “Jizya” in Islam. Christians who fails to pay the “Jizya” will be put to death. Allah knew that most Christians would rather pay than convert to Islam. Thus, like a common gangster, Allah enriched the Muslims through extortion. Allah is an extortioner.

Compare the wicked attitude of Allah with the compassion of Jehovah. See how the laws that Jehovah God gave to the ancient nation of Israel demonstrate his loving concern even for the foreigners who were living in their midst. The Israelites were commanded to love these foreigners as themselves. Instead of extorting, they were commanded to provide for the needs of these strangers. Please read the following verses carefully:

Deuteronomy 10:17-19: For Jehovah your God is the God of gods and the Lord of lords, the God great, mighty and fear-inspiring, who treats none with partiality nor accepts a bribe, executing judgment for the fatherless boy and the widow and loving the foreign resident so as to give him bread and clothing. You too must love the foreign resident, for you became alien residents in the land of Egypt.

Leviticus 19:9-10: And when you people reap the harvest of your land, you must not reap the edge of your field completely and the leftovers of your harvest you must not pick up. You must not gather the leftovers of your vineyard and you must not pick up the scattered grapes of your vineyard. For the afflicted one and the foreign resident you should leave them. I am Jehovah your God.

Leviticus 19:33-34: And in case a foreign resident resides with you as an alien in your land, you must not mistreat him. The foreign resident who resides as an alien with you should become to you like a native of yours; and you must love him as yourself, for you became foreign residents in the land of Egypt. I am Jehovah your God.

Unlike Allah, Jehovah does not command his worshippers to extort for their livelihood. Instead, he commanded them to love the foreigners even to the extent of providing for them. These are the hallmarks of a true Creator. It is obvious that Islam cannot be the religion of the true God. Islam’s origin began on the foundation of violence. Yes, the reason Muslims kill with an untroubled conscience is because they reflect the same murderous spirit as the deity they worship. If you think Islamic terrorism is a new phenomenon, think again. The success of Islam came through terrorism. We are not the ones saying this. The prophet of Islam himself boastfully admitted to this fact.

Sahih Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 220:

I have been made victories with terror.”

Terror was Muhammad’s weapon of choice. In opposition to the murderous spirit of Islam, Christians are commanded to love their enemies:

Matthew 5:44-45: However, I say to you: Continue to love your enemies and to pray for those who persecute you, so that you may prove yourselves sons of your Father who is in the heavens, since he makes his sun rise on both the wicked and the good and makes it rain on both the righteous and the unrighteous.

This is one of the most profound teachings in the Holy Bible. Jesus taught his followers to love their enemies. He taught them that by loving their enemies, Christians will be imitating the loving nature of their heavenly Father, Jehovah God. In contrast, Allah made a bargain with the Muslims. He commanded Muslims to murder their enemies and promised them Paradise if they slay and are slain” for his cause. To entice Muslims to kill, Allah also assured them that their past sins will be forgiven and they will be delivered from the grievous suffering” of “Hell-fire.” The only definite way for a Muslim to gain salvation is through murder:

Surah 9:111: Allah hath purchased of the believers their persons and their goods; for theirs in return is the garden of Paradise: they fight in His cause, and slay and are slain: a promise binding on Him in truth, through the Law, the Gospel, and the Qur’an: and who is more faithful to his covenant than Allah? Then rejoice in the bargain which ye have concluded: that is the achievement supreme.” (Yusuf Ali)

Surah 61:10-13: O you who have attained to faith! Shall I point out to you a bargain that will save you from grievous suffering? You are to believe in God and His Apostle, and to strive hard in God’s cause with your possessions and your lives: this is for your own good – if you but knew it! He will forgive you your sins, and will admit you into gardens through which running waters flow, and into goodly mansions in gardens of perpetual bliss: that will be the Supreme Triumph! And [withal, He will grant you] yet another thing that you dearly love: succor from God and a victory soon to come. (Muhammad Asad)

According to Islamic theology, all Muslims will descend into the “Islamic-Hell” immediately upon their death. (Surah 19:70-72) And they will remain there until the Day of Resurrection. Thus, Allah made a bargain with the Muslims. Allah told them if they die fighting for his cause, he will save them from the grievous suffering” of Hell-fire. In other words, they will be spared from the fires of the “Islamic-Hell” which all Muslims are destined to suffer until their deliverance on the Day of Resurrection. Paradise will be instant for the murdering martyrs. For an in-depth discussion on this subject, please click the following link: THE QUR’AN CONFIRMS MUHAMMAD IS IN HELL

Till today, Muslim suicide-killers are motivated by this murderous bargain of Allah. Allah’s bargain is still in force in the Qur’an. And the assurance of Paradise for those who die murdering in the name of Allah is still the standing order in the Book of Hate. The shortest route to the Islamic Paradise is through the sword:

Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 52, Number 73:

Narrated ‘Abdullah bin Abi Aufa: Allah’s Apostle said, “Know that Paradise is under the shades of swords.”

If you still believe that the Qur’an promotes peace, please read the following Qur’anic verse:

Surah 8:67: “It is not for any Prophet to have captives until he hath made slaughter in the land.” (Pickthall)

Ibn Ishaq, who was one of the earliest biographers of Muhammad, clarified the meaning behind the chilling words of Allah in the above Qur’anic verse.

Ibn Ishaq: 327: Allah said, “A prophet must slaughter before collecting captives. A slaughtered enemy is driven from the land. Muhammad, you craved the desires of this world, its goods and the ransom captives would bring. But Allah desires killing them to manifest the religion.”

Allah desires killing to manifest the religion.” Do we need to say more? Muslim terrorists are passionately satisfying the sadistic desires of Allah. Even though mankind have long transcended the primitive age of barbarism, we still find acts of barbarism in Islam. Muslim terrorists execute hundreds of their captives by beheading them without mercy. It seems to be their favorite form of execution. Are their acts of beheading a misrepresentation of Islam? Is it un-Islamic? To the contrary, the cruel practice of beheading is sanctioned by Allah in the Qur’an. And the ritual beheading of the enemies has a long precedent in the history and theology of Islam.

Surah 8:12: When your Lord revealed to the angels: I am with you, therefore make firm those who believe. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them. (Shakir)

Surah 47:4: When you encounter the unbelievers, strike off their heads, until you have made a great slaughter among them. (Sale)

For an in-depth discussion on the theological basis for beheading in Islam, please click the following link: ISIS BEHEADING – ABSOLUTELY ISLAMIC

Compare the teachings of Allah in the Qur’an with the teachings of Jehovah God in the Bible:

1 John 3:10-12: The children of God and the children of the Devil are evident by this fact: Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother. For this is the message that you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another, not like Cain, who originated with the wicked one and slaughtered his brother.

John 8:44: You are from your father the Devil and you wish to do the desires of your father. That one was a murderer when he began. He did not stand fast in the truth, because truth is not in him.

What is absolutely important for our readers to understand is the fact that violence is an integral part Islam. In Islam, violence is fostered at the very place where love should reign supreme. It begins within the family unit of the Muslims. Shamelessly Allah authorizes wife-beating in the Qur’an. While wife-beating is considered a serious problem by civilized societies, the opposite is true in Islam. In Islam, it is considered as a solution, a process to administer “discipline” in matrimonial disputes. Since wife-beating is divinely ordained and justified in the Qur’an, Muslims cannot see it as a problem. They simply cannot see it as an act of gross violence:

Surah 4:34: “Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and as to those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in the sleeping-places and beat them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great.” (Shakir)

In contrast, Christian husbands are given the following commandment in the Bible:

Ephesians 5:25-30: Husbands, continue loving your wives, just as the Christ also loved the congregation and gave himself up for it … In the same way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church.”

The Bible does not authorize a Christian husband to beat his wife. Just as he will not hurt himself, a Christian husband does not have the authority to hurt his wife. This is the kind of love that is required in a Christian marriage. This is the kind of love that a Christian husband is commanded to demonstrate towards his wife. Wife-beating is not an option in Christianity. It is forbidden. The laws of Jehovah are the laws of a loving Creator. The kind of love that is commanded to be demonstrated within the institution of a Christian marriage is too profound for Islam to understand.

Colossians 3:19: “You husbands love your wives and do not be bitterly angry with them.”

If it is even forbidden for a Christian husband to be bitterly angry with his wife, would he then be permitted to beat her? We can go on citing many more examples to show the contrast between the teachings of the Bible and the Qur’an. But we believe the above references are sufficient to help you to arrive at the right conclusion. Jesus Christ stated a vital principle in the Holy Bible:

Matthew 7:16-18: “You shall know them by their fruits. Do people gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles?  Likewise every good tree produces fine fruit, but every rotten tree produces worthless fruit; a good tree cannot bear worthless fruit, neither can a rotten tree produce fine fruit.”

Accordingly, we can determine the true nature of Islam by observing its fruitage–by observing the kind of people it produces. We need to focus primarily on those who strictly follow the teachings of Allah in the Qur’an. And the fruits of Islam are violently evil. All the Islamic terror groups around the world have but one common denominator. They are all fruits of the same tree. And that tree is Islam. Moreover, Jesus taught his followers to live by the Golden Rule:

Matthew 7:12:Therefore, all things which you want others to do to you, likewise you also must do to them. This, in fact, is what the Law and the Prophets point to.”

In contrast, the Qur’an states:

Surah 48:29: Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. And those with him are hard against the disbelievers and merciful among themselves. (Pickthall)

The entire Qur’an is a violation of the Golden Rule. Islam calls upon Muslims to do evil to others simply because they are not Muslims. The Qur’an has turned men into cold-blooded murderers, rapists, bandits, and terrorists. Muslims commit the most evil crimes with an untroubled conscience because these violent criminal acts are sanctioned in the Qur’an. The inspiration to murder comes directly from the teachings of Allah in the Qur’an. Islam is a culture of death and destruction. Do not take our word for it. Just look at the evidences. Look around at all the acts of violence committed by Muslims around the globe today. Munich, New York, Madrid, Beslan, London, Mumbai, Boston, Kenya, Paris, Brussels are just a few out of the many countries that experienced the violence of Islam. Does not this teach you something about this religion? Islam is making headlines for all the wrong reasons. Do not be misled by the deception of the Muslims when the truth about Islam is crying out on the streets.

PARIS TERROR ATTACKS: WHY MUSLIMS ARE KILLING US

PARIS TERROR ATTACKS: WHY MUSLIMS ARE KILLING US

This is an updated version. Our hearts go out to all the victims of the recent massacre that occurred in Paris. And together with their loved ones, families and friends we mourn their loss. This tragedy, as painful as it, should not weaken us. That is precisely the objective of the enemy. Rather, this tragedy ought to awaken within us the determination to confront this scourge that is now making its presence all over the globe. To solve any crisis, it is absolutely vital to have a correct diagnosis of the problem. And we must deal with the situation honestly. If we sacrifice our integrity to speak the truth in order to appease the masses, we are no better than the man who forces his wife to sleep with his boss in order to get a promotion. And many politicians are guilty of this treachery. However, we are not handicapped by political correctness. Therefore, we will speak the truth.

We found many asking: How could such a thing happen? Why did it happen? And why are they attacking us? Why do Muslims want to kill us? The honest answer to these questions will offend many. The answer is simple. It is ISLAM. There is no such thing as radical or moderate Islam. There is only one Islam which wants to attack and kill us all. Yes! The problem is Islam. Period.

The greatest threat to our very existence today comes from Islam. Islam is the foundational cause for the terror attacks that we are now witnessing on a global scale. Without Islam, Muslims will not be killing us. Murder through terrorism produces the oxygen that Islam needs to breathe to survive. Islam is the only religion that prescribes fighting and killing as a means to gain salvation. And it is mandatory for every single Muslim to submit to this ideology because it is engraved in the Qur’an. By the way, Islam means Submission.

Of course, we are not saying that all Muslims are terrorists. But all Muslims have the same belief system based on the Qur’an. All it takes is a simple switch to activate the dormant religious fervor of an individual Muslim at the right time. A fiery sermon or a perceived feeling of injustice or oppression will do the trick. Even in the absence of these reasons, the desire to return to roots of Islam is sufficient to transform the so-called moderates into killing machines. Islam is what Islam is. And moderate Muslims are Muslims. And moderate Muslims read the same Qur’an – the same “Terror Manual” which inspires the terrorists to become ruthless killers. Yesterday’s moderate can become today’s headline. Muslim terrorists are Muslims. So, it is crucial to know why Muslims are killing us.

For a Muslim to be truly moderate, he should leave Islam. Muslims who do not fight for the cause of Allah are viewed as “Hypocrites” in the Qur’an. Therefore, if you are a passive non-violent Muslim, you are a “Hypocrite” according to the Qur’an:

Surah 3:167: And the Hypocrites also. These were told: “Come, fight in the way of Allah, or at least drive the foe from your city.” They said: “Had we known how to fight, we should certainly have followed you.” They were that day nearer to Unbelief than to Faith, saying with their lips what was not in their hearts but Allah hath full knowledge of all they conceal. (Yusuf Ali)

And Allah commands the faithful Muslims to fight and slay the “Hypocrites.

Surah 9:73: O Prophet! Fight against the disbelievers and the hypocrites and be harsh upon them. And their refuge is Hell, and wretched is the destination. (Umm Muhammad)

Therefore, it should not surprise us to find Muslims killing Muslims to defend the purity of Islam. It is absolutely Islamic to do so. This article is specifically written for the benefit of all sincere Muslims who are genuinely troubled by the violence perpetrated by the followers of Islam. Allah has inspired more than a hundred verses in the Qur’an that command Muslims to wage war against the infidels. Let us look at a few of these Qur’anic verses:

Surah 2:216: “Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But God knoweth, and ye know not.” (Yusuf Ali)

The slaughter that took place at Paris recently was actually enforced and put into effect fourteen-hundred years ago in the “Terror Manuel” of Allah:

Surah 2:191: “And kill them wherever you find them.” (Shakir)

Surah 8:67: “It is not for any Prophet to have captives until he hath made slaughter in the land.” (Pickthall)

Muslims lie when they say Islamic terrorism is carried out as a response to oppression. In fact, Islamic terrorism started with Islam. It started with Allah:

Surah 7:4: “How many a township have We destroyed! As a raid by night, or while they slept at noon, Our terror came unto them.” (Pickthall)

Surah 8:60: “Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into the hearts of the enemies of Allah and your enemies.” (Yusuf Ali)

Surah 8:12: “When your Lord revealed to the angels: I am with you, therefore make firm those who believe. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them.” (Shakir)

And Muhammad obeyed the commandment of Allah to terrorize the rest of the civilized world.

Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 52, Number 220:

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah’s Apostle said, “I have been sent with the shortest expressions bearing the widest meanings, and I have been made victorious with terror.”

In Islam, it is not how one lives that guarantees salvation, but how one dies. To die while fighting for Allah is the only sure way for a Muslim to reserve a place in Paradise. The Paris suicide killers were motivated by Allah through the inspiration of these verses in the Qur’an:

Surah 2:207: And there is the type of man who gives his life to earn the pleasure of Allah: And Allah is full of kindness to (His) devotees. (Yusuf Ali)

Surah 4:74: Therefore, let those fight in the way of Allah, who sell this world’s life for the hereafter; and whoever fights in the way of Allah, then be he slain or be he victorious, We shall grant him a mighty reward. (Shakir)

Surah 9:111: Allah hath purchased of the believers their persons and their goods; for theirs (in return) is the garden (of Paradise): they fight in His cause, and slay and are slain: a promise binding on Him in truth, through the Law, the Gospel, and the Qur’an: and who is more faithful to his covenant than Allah? then rejoice in the bargain which ye have concluded: that is the achievement supreme.” (Yusuf Ali)

Of course, there has to be a reward. Having no spiritual gifts of any kind to reward the jihadist, Allah offers erotic sexual pleasures as a blessing for those who murder in his name:

Surah 78:31-33: “As for the righteous, they shall surely triumph. Theirs shall be gardens and vineyards, and high-bosomed virgins for companions.” (Dawood)

Surah 56:35-38: Lo! We have created them a new creation. And made them virgins, Lovers, friends, For those on the right hand. (Pickthall)

This is the reason why Muslims are willing to die and blow themselves up in the cause of Allah. The Qur’an is nothing but a covenant for murder and genocide. It is a terrorist manifesto. How do we defeat such an evil ideology? The first crucial step that every individual must undertake is a study of Islam. We need to know the real Islam. This will prevent us from becoming victims of the media and the politicians who persistently claim that Islam is a peaceful religion. We will no longer believe the often-repeated lie anymore. Secondly, we need to fight ideology with ideology. And it cannot be accomplished without understanding the enemy. While Muslims are not our enemies but Islam is. Thirdly, we need to save sincere Muslims from the entrapment of this evil ideology. In fact, Muslims are the first victims of Islam. In addition, this knowledge can help us to save those whom we love from becoming a follower of this dangerous cult.

You may wonder why Muslims do not value the life of a non-Muslim fellow human being. Why are they willing to kill the non-Muslims without hesitation? The primary reason is because the teachings of the Qur’an differ greatly from the Bible. For example, there is no such verse in the Qur’an which testifies that we are created in God’s image. However, the Bible clearly states:

Genesis 1:27: And God went on to create man in his image. In God’s image he created him. Male and female he created them.

This distinction in the Bible is important. It shows that even if someone is a non-worshipper of the true God, his life as an individual is still viewed as precious on account of the fact that he is created in God’s image. Lacking such profound teachings in the Qur’an, Islam does not value the life of a non-believer. In fact, it considers those who do not become Muslims as animals – the vilest of animals.

Surah 8:55: The worst of animals in the sight of Allah are those who reject the truth and do not become believers. (Farook Malik)

And what awaits the “worst of animals” who do not wish to become Muslims?

Surah 8:7: But Allah wished to confirm the truth by His words, and wipe the unbelievers out to the last.” (Samira)

And this is what Islamic terrorist is aiming to achieve. Another reason why Muslims are willing to kill non-believers with an untroubled conscience is because there is no such teaching as the “Golden Rule” in Islam. However, Jesus taught his followers to live by the Golden Rule:

Matthew 7:12:Therefore, all things which you want others to do to you, you also must likewise do to them. This, in fact, is what the Law and the Prophets point to.”

And in contrast, the Qur’an states:

Surah 48:29: Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. And those with him are hard against the disbelievers and merciful among themselves. (Pickthall)

The entire Qur’an is a violation of the Golden Rule. Islam calls upon Muslims to do evil to others simply because they are not Muslims. Do not be fooled by the popular catch-phrase used by Muslims today: “Terrorism has no religion.” This phrase is antithesis to Islam. And it is antithesis to the teachings of this religion. Muslims deceitfully use this phrase to distant Islam from the acts of terrorism perpetrated by the true followers of Allah. During the early sixties there was popular song entitled, “Blowing in the Wind.” A couple of verses in the song read: “How many times can a man turn his head pretending he just doesn’t see? The answer my friend is blowing in the wind.”

Yes! The answer is blowing in the wind. It is blowing all over the world for anyone to see. Tragically, many are turning their heads pretending not to see. They deliberately refuse to see the link between Islam and terrorism. Do not be among them. What we have discussed here should alert us of the danger that Islam poses on humanity. Someone once said: “Silence in the face of evil is evil itself. Therefore, it is not only unwise to remain silent but it is also morally wrong. Should this article move you to study Islam and speak to others about the dangers of Islam, then there is still hope.

Surah 8:12: “When your Lord revealed to the angels: I am with you, therefore make firm those who believe. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them.” (Shakir)

And Muhammad obeyed the commandment of Allah to terrorize the rest of the civilized world.

Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 52, Number 220:

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah’s Apostle said, “I have been sent with the shortest expressions bearing the widest meanings, and I have been made victorious with terror.”

In Islam, it is not how one lives that guarantees salvation, but how one dies. To die while fighting for Allah is the only sure way for a Muslim to reserve a place in Paradise. The Paris suicide killers were motivated by Allah through the inspiration of these verses in the Qur’an:

Surah 2:207: And there is the type of man who gives his life to earn the pleasure of Allah: And Allah is full of kindness to (His) devotees. (Yusuf Ali)

Surah 4:74: Therefore, let those fight in the way of Allah, who sell this world’s life for the hereafter; and whoever fights in the way of Allah, then be he slain or be he victorious, We shall grant him a mighty reward. (Shakir)

Surah 9:111: Allah hath purchased of the believers their persons and their goods; for theirs (in return) is the garden (of Paradise): they fight in His cause, and slay and are slain: a promise binding on Him in truth, through the Law, the Gospel, and the Qur’an: and who is more faithful to his covenant than Allah? then rejoice in the bargain which ye have concluded: that is the achievement supreme.” (Yusuf Ali)

Of course, there has to be a reward. Having no spiritual gifts of any kind to reward the jihadist, Allah offers erotic sexual pleasures as a blessing for those who murder in his name:

Surah 78:31-33: “As for the righteous, they shall surely triumph. Theirs shall be gardens and vineyards, and high-bosomed virgins for companions.” (Dawood)

Surah 56:35-38: Lo! We have created them a new creation. And made them virgins, Lovers, friends, For those on the right hand. (Pickthall)

This is the reason why Muslims are willing to die and blow themselves up in the cause of Allah. The Qur’an is nothing but a covenant for murder and genocide. It is a terrorist manifesto. How do we defeat such an evil ideology? The first crucial step that every individual must undertake is a study of Islam. We need to know the real Islam. This will prevent us from becoming victims of the media and the politicians who claim Islam is a peaceful religion. We will no longer believe the often-repeated lie anymore. Secondly, we need to fight ideology with ideology. And it cannot be accomplished without understanding the enemy. While Muslims are not our enemies but Islam is. Thirdly, we need to save sincere Muslims from the entrapment of this evil ideology. In fact, Muslims are the first victims of Islam. In addition, this knowledge can help us to save those whom we love from becoming a follower of this dangerous cult.

You may wonder why Muslims do not value the life of a non-Muslim fellow human being. Why are they willing to kill the non-Muslims without hesitation? The primary reason is because the teachings of the Qur’an differ greatly from the Bible. For example, there is no such verse in the Qur’an which testifies that we are created in God’s image. However, the Bible clearly states:

Genesis 1:27: And God went on to create man in his image. In God’s image he created him. Male and female he created them.

This distinction in the Bible is important. It shows that even if someone is a non-worshipper of the true God, his life as an individual is still viewed as precious on account of the fact that he is created in God’s image. Lacking such profound teachings in the Qur’an, Islam does not value the life of a non-believer. In fact, it considers those who do not become Muslims as animals – the vilest of animals.

Surah 8:55: The worst of animals in the sight of Allah are those who reject the truth and do not become believers. (Farook Malik)

And what awaits the “worst of animals” who do not wish to become Muslims?

Surah 8:7: But Allah wished to confirm the truth by His words, and wipe the unbelievers out to the last.” (Samira)

And this is what Islamic terrorist is aiming to achieve. Another reason why Muslims are willing to kill non-believers with an untroubled conscience is because there is no such teaching as the “Golden Rule” in Islam. However, Jesus taught his followers to live by the Golden Rule:

Matthew 7:12:Therefore, all things which you want others to do to you, you also must likewise do to them. This, in fact, is what the Law and the Prophets point to.”

And in contrast, the Qur’an states:

Surah 48:29: Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. And those with him are hard against the disbelievers and merciful among themselves. (Pickthall)

The entire Qur’an is a violation of the Golden Rule. Islam calls upon Muslims to do evil to others simply because they are not Muslims. Do not be fooled by the popular catch-phrase used by Muslims today: “Terrorism has no religion.” This phrase is antithesis to Islam. And it is antithesis to the teachings of this religion. Muslims deceitfully use this phrase to distant Islam from the acts of terrorism perpetuated by the true followers of Allah. During the early sixties there was popular song entitled, “Blowing in the Wind.” A couple of verses in the song read: “How many times can a man turn his head pretending he just doesn’t see? The answer my friend is blowing in the wind.”

Yes! The answer is blowing in the wind. It is blowing all over the world for anyone to see. Tragically, many are turning their heads pretending not to see. They deliberately refuse to see the link between Islam and terrorism. Do not be among them. What we have discussed here should alert us of the danger that Islam poses on humanity. Someone once said: “Silence in the face of evil is evil itself. Therefore, it is not only unwise to remain silent but it is also morally wrong. Should this article move you to study Islam and speak to others about the dangers of Islam, then there is still hope.

ISLAM SANCTIONS HONOR KILLING IN THE QUR’AN

ISLAM SANCTIONS HONOR KILLING IN THE QUR’AN

Honor Killing is the shocking cruelty committed by Muslim family members. The perpetrators in every case are the family members. Honor Killing is a family collaboration. And the victims who are killed are either the daughter or sister or other blood related young women. The crime is usually carried out by the father, brothers or uncles of the victims. However, mothers too have participated in Honor KillingThe victims are killed or slaughtered in a cold-blooded manner. These barbaric killings are executed for the single purpose of saving the honor of the family. Honor Killing is a manifestation of a global phenomenon among Muslims.

The purpose of this article is to expose the myth that Honor Killing is not Islamic but a cultural practice. It will be proven conclusively that Honor Killing is not only Islamic but it is also based on the teachings of the Qur’an. In fact, it will be proven, step by step, how the Qur’an nurtures and grooms the Muslim mind to murder in the name of Honor.

But more importantly, the purpose of this article is to alert those who are ignorant of Islam. Many are unaware that Islam is a cult of death. It is a blood-thirsty religion. It lives and grows by shedding blood. Islam teaches that by spilling blood as a sacred duty, Muslims can reap personal rewards. Please read this article carefully. Share it with those you know. Use it to educate your family and friends about Islam. Perhaps you may save a life. Silence in the face of evil is evil itself.

The following are some of the acts or behaviors by a Muslim woman or girl – actual or suspected – that target her for Honor Killing:

  • Speaking with an unrelated man.
  • An extra-marital affair.
  • Refusal of forced marriage.
  • Marrying according to personal choice.
  • Becoming an innocent victim of rape.
  • Or even a rumor regarding pre-marital loss of virginity.
  • A woman who desires to leave her abusive husband.
  • A woman who bridge religious divides by engaging socially with other communities.

All these acts are supposed to stain or destroy the family honor. Therefore, family members kill the victim in order to remove the stain and protect the honor of the family. The mere perception that a woman has behaved in a way that “dishonors” her family is sufficient to trigger an attack on her life. Of course, the above given reasons for Honor Killing are only a partial list and are not exhaustive. Some conservative Muslim families may even consider very trivial acts as conducts that bring dishonor to the family.

Killers are often given light sentences, sometimes with little or no jail term at all. In fact, in Islamic countries such as Saudi Arabia, Algeria, Jordan, Syria, Libya, Kuwait, Yemen, Lebanon, Egypt, Sudan, the Gaza strip, Tunisia, Pakistan, Nigeria and Somalia, little or no action is taken against the criminals. Since the justification for the cold-blooded murder is founded on the teachings of the Qur’an and the Hadith, Islamic courts cannot prosecute the killers without taking a prior stand against Islam. Family members who are involved in this heinous crime will say that they are merely following the directives set down in the ethical teachings of Islam.

What is more, the practice of committing homicides in the name of honor is legally recognized and is enshrined in the Islamic Sharia Law. As a result, Muslims murder in the name of honor. The Article 340 of the Jordanian Penal Code states:

He who catches his wife, or one of his female un-lawfully committing adultery with another, and he kills, wounds, or injures both of them, is excused and benefits from an exemption from penalty.”

Provisions such as Article 340 exist in the Penal Codes of many Arab countries. Therefore, the practice of murder in the name of honor stands as a serious barrier for women to access justice since honor is articulated as a valid defense for murder in the Penal Codes of many Arab nations. This Islamic verdict completely ignores every one of the provisions established for the safeguard of women in Article 2 (c) of the United Nations Declaration on the “Elimination of Violence against Women.”

As usual, Muslim apologists argue that Honor Killing is a cultural vice and, therefore, it is not Islamic. This claim is not only utterly false but a blatant lie by Muslims to cover the shame of this evil practice that is sanctioned in Islam. If the phenomenon of Honor Killing was just a continuation of a pre-Islamic Arab cultural practice, then Honor Killing would be confined only amongst the Arab Muslims. However, we find Honor Killing is extensively practiced by Muslims who are not Arabs culturally. For example, Honor Killing is a common occurrence in countries like Pakistan – a non-Arabic country. It has been reported that in Pakistan and Jordan several hundreds of Honor Killings occur every year. What was it that caused the adoption of this evil practice by countries that are non-Arabic? And why is the practice confined only among the Muslims of these non-Arabic countries? Then again, if it was a pre-Islamic Arab culture, why is Islam unable to stop this evil practice among its worshippers?

The truth is that Islam incorporated many inhumane and uncivilized practices of the ancient pagan society into its religion, which are now considered as the laws of Allah. Allah not only legalized these practices in the Qur’an but he also spread them globally in the name of Islam. Additionally, if it is cultural, why is this barbaric act not practiced by the Arabs Christians? Why is that only Arab Muslims carry out this heinous act with regularity? The great majority of Honor Killings occur only amongst the Muslims. Only Muslims practice it because Honor Killing gets its support and encouragement from the ethical teachings of Islam. Let us now consider how the teachings of the Qur’an incite Honor Killing in Islam.

Surah 4:15: “If any of your women are guilty of lewdness, take the evidence of four (reliable) witness from amongst you against them; if they testify, confine them to houses until death do claim them. Or God ordain for them some (other) way.” (Yusuf Ali)

In the above verse, Allah gives individual Muslims the right to imprison for life the women whom they believe to be “guilty of lewdness. Therefore, this Qur’anic verse authorizes Muslims to take the law into their own hands and punish those who are guilty – actual or suspected. The life-long house arrest enforced on the women who are judged as being “guilty of lewdness” is a form of a capital punishment. Is not the right to lock up a woman till she dies a type of Honor Killing on the installment? The enforcement of these punishments of Allah is usually carried out by the father, elevating him to the position of the law. Failure to do so will bring shame upon him in the eyes of the Muslim community. He has to act to remove that shame. But, the Qur’anic authorization for Muslims to act as executioners of punishment is not confined just to imprisonment.

Surah 4:89: They but wish that ye should reject Faith, as they do, and thus be on the same footing as they: But take not friends from their ranks until they flee in the way of Allah (From what is forbidden). But if they turn renegades, seize them and slay them wherever ye find them.” (Yusuf Ali)

According to the Qur’an, those who became Muslims and then renegades or deserts the religion of Islam should be seized and killed. It is a must by Allah. The greatest threat to apostates in the Muslim world comes not from the state, but from private individuals. It is the duty of all faithful Muslims to execute apostates. Once again, we can see that Allah has given individual Muslims the right to act as executioners. They are given the right to execute the penalty of death. A good Muslim is one who acts as Judge, Jury and Executioner for the cause of Allah.

Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 52, Number 260:

Narrated Ikrima: Ali burnt some people and this news reached Ibn ‘Abbas, who said, “Had I been in his place I would not have burnt them, as the Prophet said, ‘Don’t punish (anybody) with Allah’s Punishment.’ No doubt, I would have killed them, for the Prophet said, ‘If somebody (a Muslim) discards his religion, kill him.’

Killing of apostates is perfectly alright – only be sure that it is not fiery. In Islam, not only Muslims who leave their religion are considered as apostates but also those whose behavior goes contrary to the teachings of the Qur’an may be considered as such. Muhammad even had a man executed for consuming alcohol. And he established the following Islamic law:

Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 38, Number 4467:

Narrated Mu’awiyah ibn AbuSufyan: The Prophet said: If they (the people) drink wine, flog them, again if they drink it, flog them. Again if they drink it, kill them.

Therefore, individuals who act contrary to the teachings of Islam can place themselves in the danger of being viewed as apostates. Some Honor Killings are carried out for even very minor infractions such as a young woman’s refusal to wear the Islamic headscarf (hijab) or her desire to wear makeup. Thus, even discarding the Islamic dress code can be dangerous for some. Many young Muslim women were killed just for wanting to conform to a Western lifestyle. This rationalization for Honor Killings is known at Westernization. (Chester, Phyllis. “Worldwide Trends in Honor Killings.” p. 6.)

A woman’s right to autonomy over her own body is a right that Muslim perpetrators of Honor Killings do not recognize. A Muslim woman’s body is considered the property of her father, husband or other male relatives. Islam has much to do with the practice of Honor Killing as most people fail to recognize. Had it been considered as an un-Islamic practice, we would have seen strict Muslim nations using the laws of Sharia to prohibit Honor Killings. But, we do not find this to be true.

There is an interesting account in the Qur’an that lays the theological groundwork for Honor Killing in Islam. The narrative tells of Moses encountering a mysterious Servant of Allah who is gifted with “special knowledge.” He does things which do not seem to make sense on the surface, but are then justified according to later explanation. One such action is the murder of a youth for no apparent reason. However, the wise man later explains that it was feared that the boy would “grieve” his parents by “disobedience and ingratitude.” He was killed so that Allah could provide them a “better son.” Let us read this account in the Qur’an. Only the relevant quote from the Qur’an is cited here in the following verses:

Surah 18:65-81: “Then they found one from among Our servants whom We had granted mercy from Us and whom We had taught knowledge from Ourselves. Moses said to him: Shall I follow you on condition that you should teach me right knowledge of what you have been taught? He said: Surely you cannot have patience with me and how can you have patience in that of which you have not got a comprehensive knowledge? Moses said: If Allah pleases, you will find me patient and I shall not disobey you in any matter. He said: If you would follow me, then do not question me about any thing until I myself speak to you about it.”

So they went on until, when they met a boy, he slew him. Moses said: Have you slain an innocent person otherwise than for manslaughter? Certainly you have done an evil thing. He said: Did I not say to you that you will not be able to have patience with me? Moses said: If I ask you about anything after this, keep me not in your company; indeed you shall have then found an excuse in my case.”

He said: This shall be separation between me and you; now I will inform you of the significance of that with which you could not have patience.”

And as for the boy, his parents were believers and we feared lest he should make disobedience and ingratitude to come upon them: So we desired that their Lord might give them in his place one better than him in purity and nearer to having compassion.” (Shakir)

These Qur’anic verses lay the foundation for Honor Killing. They show explicitly that Allah justifies the killing of a child for just the thought that the child would grow up to commit disobedience and ingratitude in the future. These Qur’anic verses go even further by saying that Allah would provide the parents with a better son than the one that they had before.  This is the basis for the justification of Honor Killing in Islam. The Qur’an reveals that it is of no consequence to Allah if a child who becomes un-Islamic is murdered. Parents who lose such a child through murder will be rewarded.

Since the Servant of Allah in this account was gifted with special knowledge to look into the future, he killed the boy before he could actually dishonor his family. The Servant of Allah feared that the boy would grow up to bring dishonor and shame on his family, hence the pre-emptive murder. Just think! This Servant of Allah did not even wait for the actual crime of dishonor to take place before killing the boy. And Moses had to learn “right knowledge” from this pre-emptive murderer. Islam’s values are warped!

However, since normal Muslims do not possess special gifts of any kind, they would not know how a child would turn out in the future. Hence, they have to wait until they perceive some kind of misconduct that they may judge as bringing dishonor to the family. And then they have the divine right to eliminate the child. The above Qur’anic verses authorizes parents that if they have sufficient reasons to believe that their child is deviating from the religion of Allah, they can then murder that child with Allah’s blessing. Like Moses, they too have to learn “right knowledge” from Allah’s pre-emptive murderer.

So, when Muslims tells you that Honor Killing is not condoned in Islam it means one of the following: One, they do not know their own religion. Two, they are lying. The above Qur’anic verses show that the very thought of bringing shame in the future is enough to issue the death warrant on a child. Another Qur’anic verse that contributes to Honor Killing is Surah 4:34:

Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and as to those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in the sleeping-places and beat them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great. (Shakir)

This Qur’anic verse states that men are in charge of women, being their protectors and maintainers. What happens if a man fails in his duty to keep his women (wife/wives, daughters or sisters) within the domination of Islam? What if the women in his household are simply unwilling to comply? The pressure is then turned on him, by the Muslim community, to control the women entrusted to him. Thus, in order to keep the honor of his family – be it for any reason – the strain becomes so great that murder seems to be the only solution. Moreover, if wife-beating is permitted in Islam, can Honor Killing be far behind? If a Muslim husband is permitted by Allah to beat his disobedient wife in order to chastise her, just think what would a Muslim father do to chastise his rebellious daughter? For the Islamic rationale behind Honor Killing, we need to look no further than the following Qur’anic verses:

Surah 33:60-62: If the Hypocrites and those in whose hearts there is a sickness, and the scandal mongers in Madinah do not desist from their vile acts, We shall urge you to take action against them, and then they will hardly be able to stay in the city with you. They shall be cursed from all around and they shall be ruthlessly killed wherever they are seized. This has been Allah´s Way with those who have gone before, and you shall find no change in Allah´s Way. (Maududi)

Hypocrisy (Arabic: Nifaaq) means “Double-Facedness. It means a contradiction between one’s apparent and hidden self. Apparently the person is a believer but the inner self of the person is in disbelief. Hypocrisy is categorized as:

(1) Hypocrisy against Allah regarding actual faith. (2) Hypocrisy with Allah regarding the necessities of faith.

Thus, the term “Hypocrites” in the Qur’an refers both to those who renegade from Islam and also to those who deliberately fail to conform to the rulings and regulations of Islam while claiming to be Muslims.

In the minds of the victim’s family, the “rebellious” daughter is now viewed the same as an apostate when she refuses to follow the dictates of Islam – such as opting for Westernization or refusing an arranged marriage or running away from an abusive home to gain freedom. Tragically, she has to pay the Islamic price for her disobedience to Sharia law. Family relationship has no meaning under such circumstances and it is not allowed to stand in the way of Allah:

Surah 58:22: “You shall not find a people who believe in Allah and the latter day befriending those who act in opposition to Allah and His Messenger, even though they were their own fathers, or their sons, or their brothers, or their kinsfolk.” (Shakir)

And to the above list we can add “wives, daughters and sisters.” As it can be seen, the claim that Honor Killing is not Islamic because the Qur’an does not directly mentions it is a lie. Additionally, the fact that there are many other things which Muslims practice that are not mentioned in the Qur’an further invalidates this Muslim argument. For example, stoning to death for adultery is not mentioned in the Qur’an, yet the practice of stoning to death by the decree of the Islamic court can be found in strict Islamic countries. The same goes for circumcision.

The honest truth is that the murderers in Honor Killing are influenced primarily by the principles and commands laid out in the Qur’an and the Hadiths. It is because of these Islamic elements of support, we find that the perpetrators of this crime are left off easily by Islamic governments. And because Honor Killing finds its support in the moral principles of Islam, many Islamic governments find themselves unable to take the necessary steps to enact any criminal law to ban the barbaric slaughtering of innocent women/girls by their family members.

Although the crime Honor Killing is associated with the word “Honor,” the crimes themselves are dishonorable. There is a pattern of gender hierarchy in Islam that culminates in the violence against Muslim women. These kind of cruel killings to save family honor have happened in the past, it is still happening and will continue to happen in the Muslim communities. Honor Killings will exist as long as Islam exists. While there may be isolated incidences of others who commit such murders, the great majority of the perpetrators worldwide are Muslims. While others act on their own, the murderous actions of the Muslims are religiously motivated.

In spite of all the evidences proving to the contrary, Muslims still deny that Honor Killing has anything to do with Islam. This is just the same as when they deny that the acts of terrorism by Muslim perpetrators have anything to do with Islam. Honor Killing can be stopped only when Muslims come to terms with the truth that it is a practice that is sanctioned in Islam. To stop a disease you must identify the virus. The Honor Killing virus is rooted deeply in the teachings of Islam.

However, even if we allow for the false claim that Islam is not responsible for Honor Killing, then it only goes on to show that Islam is a failed system. It proves the ineffectiveness of Islam. It shows that even after more than 1,400 years of its existence, it could not prevent the influence of a backward culture on its faithful believers. The fact that the killings are carried out mostly by the more faithful members of Islam, proves that Islam is not powerful enough to overcome this cultural gender backwardness that calls for the killing of women. In reality, does not this demonstrate that Islam is a failed system?

Additionally, if it is true that it is cultural, who then is promoting and influencing this cultural practice on every new generation of Muslims? None. The peoples, tribes and nationalities that lived by the rule of this culture do not exist today. Without the existence of this evil culture to influence Muslims, can Muslims honestly put the blame on culture? Even if such culture exists today, why are non-Muslims not affected by it? The absolute truth is that the only people who promote this backward barbaric practice of Honor Killing are Muslims themselves. Muslims are the only people in the world who believe in saving the honor of their family by destroying the family. They are taught to do so by their religion.

The fact is that the relation between Islam and Honor Killing is related more to the religious influence than Muslims are willing to admit. Even if Honor Killing originated in pre-Islamic Arab tribalism, it has long since been incorporated into the religious framework of Islam whereby it has become acceptable throughout the Muslim world. The refusal of Islamic authorities to unambiguously denounce Honor Killing proves that this practice does not contradict the spirit of Islam.

Contrary to such denial by Muslims, the evidences demonstrate that the prevailing dominating spirit within Islam condones the practice, whilst not recommending it openly for fear of a backlash. One of the most outstanding evidences to substantiate this point is the Umdat Al-Salik (“Reliance of the Sojourner” in Arabic). Umdat Al-Salik is a manual on Sharia (Islamic law) certified as a reliable guide to Sunni orthodoxy by Al-Azhar University. Al-Azhar University is the most prominent and authoritative institute of Islamic jurisprudence in the world.

Umdat al-Salik 01.1-2 states:

Retaliation is obligatory against anyone who kills a human being purely intentionally and without right.”

The Islamic manual then continues on to state:

(However) not subject to retaliation (is) a father or mother (or their fathers or mothers) for killing their offspring, or offspring’s offspring.”

Thus, according to this Islamic view, parents who murder their daughters to save the family honor, whether owing to issues of chastity, apostasy and the like, incurs no penalty under Sharia.

THE CHRISTIAN WAY TO DEAL WITH WILLFUL REBELLION

But, how does one handle willful persistent wrongdoers within a religious community? What do the teachings of Christianity say on this issue? During the first century, the Christian congregation in Corinth faced the situation of a man who unrepentantly practiced fornication. His conduct threatened not only the purity of the Christian congregation but it also became a scandal. Hence, Jehovah God rightly directed that the man be removed from the congregation. This act of removing an unrepentant sinner is known as “disfellowshipping” in Christian terminology. The person is not killed, but is removed from the Christian congregation. As such, he is no longer viewed as a fellow-believer. No Christian is permitted to associate with the disfellowshipped person.

1 Corinthians 5:11-13: But now I am writing you to quit mixing in company with anyone called a brother that is a fornicator or a greedy person or an idolater or a reviler or a drunkard or an extortioner, not even eating with such a man. For what do I have to do with judging those outside? Do you not judge those inside, while God judges those outside? “Remove the wicked man from among yourselves.”

That discipline had a good effect. The congregation was protected from the corrupting influence of the sinner. Since the wrongdoer had to now choose between pursuing his sinful course and losing the loving association of his family members as well as that of the Christian congregation, the sinner was brought to his senses and to sincere repentance. On the basis of evidences of the man’s sincere repentance, he was later reinstated into the Christian congregation:

2 Corinthians 2:6-8: This rebuke given by the majority is sufficient for such a man, so that, on the contrary now, you should kindly forgive and comfort him that somehow such a man may not be swallowed up by his being overly sad. Therefore I exhort you to confirm your love for him.

Till today, the Bible-based practice of disfellowshipping unrepentant wrongdoers has served to keep God’s holy name clear of reproach. It has also protected the fine reputation of his people. And it served to keep God’s congregation spiritually clean.  But, the loving purpose behind the act of disfellowshipping is to hopefully move the sinner to repent and leave his sinful course. As for those who continue to remain unrepentant even after having been disfellowshipped, they are considered as no part of the Christian congregation as long as they continue in their sinful course.

It must be remembered that this form of discipline is administered only on those who display a willful disregard for the laws of God and deliberately persist in their sinful course. Many commit sin, sometimes even serious ones, which they regret deeply and beg for God’s forgiveness. And they strive hard to resist the sinful tendency. Such ones are not removed from the Christian congregation but rather they are helped to maintain their faithful course. So it does mean that each time a Christian commits a sinful act, he is automatically disfellowshipped. We worship a forgiving God.

Christians are never commanded by their God to murder those who turn aside from the Christian faith. And this includes murdering those who are members of their own family. Unlike Islam, there is absolutely no justification for Honor Killing in Christianity. The Holy Bible does not allow this. The true Creator is aware of the fact that sinners can repent and change their ways.

Ezekiel 18:21-22: “Now as regards someone wicked, in case he should turn back from all his sins that he has committed and he should actually keep all my statutes and execute justice and righteousness, he will positively keep living. He will not die. All his transgressions that he has committed—they will not be remembered against him. For his righteousness that he has done he will keep living.”

In contrast, by ending an alleged sinner’s life, the murderers in Honor Killing are arrogantly assuming that the victim would never regret her sinful course or change her ways in the future. And they are also making the bold assumption that she would not be forgiven by God. This is a clear violation of God’s mercy and forgiveness. To think that one has the right to play God and kill someone is one of the gravest sins. And Islam sanctions these cold-blooded murders. Muslims are able to commit murder with impunity because Honor Killings are directly motivated and influenced by the teachings of the Qur’an. Honor Killing is the ultimate betrayal. The reason why Muslims desperately try to push the blame on culture and deny the authorization of Honor Killing in Islam is because deep inside they know that no decent religion would want to be associated with Murder in the name of Honor.

The prevalence of the practice of Honor Killing among Muslims shows that Islam lacks the moral fortitude of that of a true religion to stop this barbaric practice from happening among its faithful followers. Thus, Islam is false. It is a failed religious system. Ironically, Muslims are taught to believe that they are the best among mankind. And they murder to maintain this religious fabrication.

Surah 3:110: “You are the best of the nations raised up for the benefit of men; you enjoin what is right and forbid the wrong and believe in Allah.” (Shakir)

Yes, to maintain this image of Islam, Muslims willingly kill the fruitage of their belly. Islam cannot be the religion of the true God. The fruitage of Islam is rotten to the core. It produces dangerous fruits. It makes murderers out of those who are supposed to love and protect. It bloodies the hands that once rocked the cradle. The Holy Bible identifies the true source behind Honor Killings in Islam:

John 8:44: “You are from your father the Devil, and you wish to do the desires of your father. That one was a murderer when he began.”

HONOR KILLING IS TAUGHT IN THE QUR’AN

HONOR KILLING IS TAUGHT IN THE QUR’AN

The purpose of this article is to expose the myth that Honor Killing is not Islamic. It will be proven without doubt that Honor Killing is not only Islamic but it is also based on the teachings of the Qur’an. In fact, it will be proven, step by step, how the Qur’an nurtures and grooms the Muslim mind to murder in the name of Honor.

Honor Killing is the shocking cruelty committed by Muslim family members. The perpetrators in every case are the family members. Honor Killing is a family collaboration. And the victims who are killed are either the daughter or sister or other blood related young women. The crime is usually carried out by the father, brothers or uncles of the victims. However, mothers too have participated in Honor KillingThe victims are killed or slaughtered in a cold-blooded manner. These barbaric killings are executed for the single purpose of saving the honor of the family. Honor Killing is a manifestation of a global phenomenon among Muslims. The following are some of the acts or behaviors by a Muslim woman or girl – actual or suspected – that target her for Honor Killing:

  • Speaking with an unrelated man.
  • An extra-marital affair.
  • Refusal of forced marriage.
  • Marrying according to personal choice.
  • Becoming an innocent victim of rape.
  • Or even a rumor regarding pre-marital loss of virginity.
  • A woman who desires to leave her abusive husband.
  • A woman who bridge religious divides by engaging socially with other communities.

All these acts are supposed to stain or destroy the family honor. Therefore, family members kill the victim in order to remove the stain and protect the honor of the family. The mere perception that a woman has behaved in a way that “dishonors” her family is sufficient to trigger an attack on her life. Of course, the above given reasons for Honor Killing are only a partial list and are not exhaustive. Some conservative Muslim families may even consider very trivial acts as conducts that bring dishonor to the family.

Killers are often given light sentences, sometimes with little or no jail term at all. In fact, in Islamic countries such as Saudi Arabia, Algeria, Jordan, Syria, Libya, Kuwait, Yemen, Lebanon, Egypt, Sudan, the Gaza strip, Tunisia, Pakistan, Nigeria and Somalia, little or no action is taken against the criminals. Since the justification for the cold-blooded murder is founded on the teachings of the Qur’an and the Hadith, Islamic courts cannot prosecute the killers without taking a prior stand against Islam. Family members who are involved in this heinous crime will say that they are merely following the directives set down in the ethical teachings of Islam.

What is more, the practice of committing homicides in the name of honor is legally recognized and enshrined in the Islamic Sharia Law. As a result, Muslims murder in the name of honor. The Article 340 of the Jordanian Penal Code states:

He who catches his wife, or one of his female un-lawfully committing adultery with another, and he kills, wounds, or injures both of them, is excused and benefits from an exemption from penalty.”

Provisions such as Article 340 exist in the Penal Codes of many Arab countries. Therefore, the practice of murder in the name of honor stands as a serious barrier for women to access justice since honor is articulated as a valid defense for murder in the Penal Codes of many Arab nations. This Islamic verdict completely ignores everyone of the provisions established for the safeguard of women in Article 2 (c) of the United Nations Declaration on the “Elimination Of Violence Against Women.”

As usual, Muslim apologists argue that Honor Killing is a cultural vice and, therefore, it is not Islamic. This claim is not only utterly false but a blatant lie by Muslims to cover the shame of this evil practice that is sanctioned in Islam. If the phenomenon of Honor Killing was just a continuation of a pre-Islamic Arab cultural practice, then Honor Killing would be confined only amongst the Arab Muslims. However, we find Honor Killing is extensively practiced by Muslims who are not Arabs culturally. For example, Honor Killing is a common occurrence in countries like Pakistan – a non-Arabic country. It has been reported that in Pakistan and Jordan several hundreds of Honor Killings occur every year. What was it that caused the adoption of this evil practice by countries that are non-Arabic? And why is the practice confined only among the Muslims of these non-Arabic countries? Then again, if it was a pre-Islamic Arab culture, why is Islam unable to stop this evil practice among its worshippers?

The truth is that Islam incorporated many inhumane and uncivilized practices of the ancient pagan society into its religion, which are now considered as the laws of Allah. Allah not only legalized these practices in the Qur’an but he also spread them globally in the name of Islam. Additionally, if it is cultural, why is this barbaric act not practiced by the Arabs Christians? Why is that only Arab Muslims carry out this heinous act with regularity? The great majority of Honor Killings occur only amongst the Muslims. Only Muslims practice it because Honor Killing gets its support and encouragement from the ethical teachings of Islam. Let us now consider how the teachings of the Qur’an incite Honor Killing in Islam.

Surah 4:15: “If any of your women are guilty of lewdness, take the evidence of four (reliable) witness from amongst you against them; if they testify, confine them to houses until death do claim them. Or God ordain for them some (other) way.” (Yusuf Ali)

In the above verse, Allah gives individual Muslims the right to imprison for life the women whom they believe to be “guilty of lewdness. Therefore, this Qur’anic verse authorizes Muslims to take the law into their own hands and punish those who are guilty – actual or suspected. The life-long house arrest enforced on the women who are judged as being “guilty of lewdness” is a form of a capital punishment. Is not the right to lock up a woman till she dies a type of Honor Killing on the installment? The enforcement of these punishments of Allah is usually carried out by the father, elevating him to the position of the law. Failure to do so will bring shame upon him in the eyes of the Muslim community. He has to act to remove that shame. But, the Qur’anic authorization for Muslims to act as executioners of punishment is not confined just to imprisonment.

Surah 4:89: They but wish that ye should reject Faith, as they do, and thus be on the same footing as they: But take not friends from their ranks until they flee in the way of Allah (From what is forbidden). But if they turn renegades, seize them and slay them wherever ye find them.” (Yusuf Ali)

According to the Qur’an, those who became Muslims and then renegades or deserts the religion of Islam should be seized and killed. It is a must by Allah. The greatest threat to apostates in the Muslim world comes not from the state, but from private individuals. It is the duty of all faithful Muslims to execute apostates. Once again, we can see that Allah has given individual Muslims the right to act as executioners. They are given the right to execute the penalty of death. A good Muslim is one who acts as Judge, Jury and Executioner for the cause of Allah.

Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 52, Number 260: 

Narrated Ikrima: Ali burnt some people and this news reached Ibn ‘Abbas, who said, “Had I been in his place I would not have burnt them, as the Prophet said, ‘Don’t punish (anybody) with Allah’s Punishment.’ No doubt, I would have killed them, for the Prophet said, ‘If somebody (a Muslim) discards his religion, kill him.’

Killing of apostates is perfectly all-right – only be sure that it is not fiery. In Islam, not only Muslims who leave their religion are considered as apostates but also those whose behavior goes contrary to the teachings of the Qur’an may be considered as such. Muhammad even had a man executed for consuming alcohol. And he established the following Islamic law: 

Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 38, Number 4467:

Narrated Mu’awiyah ibn AbuSufyan: The Prophet said: If they (the people) drink wine, flog them, again if they drink it, flog them. Again if they drink it, kill them.

Therefore, individuals who act contrary to the teachings of Islam can place themselves in the danger of being viewed as apostates. Some Honor Killings are carried out for even very minor infractions such as a young woman’s refusal to wear the Islamic headscarf (hijab) or her desire to wear makeup. Thus, even discarding the Islamic dress code can be dangerous for some. Many young Muslim women were killed just for wanting to conform to a Western lifestyle. This rationalization for Honor Killings is known at Westernization. (Chester, Phyllis. “Worldwide Trends in Honor Killings.” p. 6.)

A woman’s right to autonomy over her own body is a right that Muslim perpetrators of Honor Killings do not recognize. A Muslim woman’s body is considered the property of her father, husband or other male relatives. Islam has much to do with the practice of Honor Killing as most people fail to recognize. Had it been considered as an un-Islamic practice, we would have seen strict Muslim nations using the laws of Sharia to prohibit Honor Killings. But, we do not find this to be true.

There is an interesting account in the Qur’an that lays the theological groundwork for Honor Killing in Islam. The narrative tells of Moses encountering a mysterious Servant of Allah who is gifted with special knowledge.” He does things which do not seem to make sense on the surface, but are then justified according to later explanation. One such action is the murder of a youth for no apparent reason. However, the wise man later explains that it was feared that the boy would “grieve” his parents by “disobedience and ingratitude.” He was killed so that Allah could provide them a “better son.” Let us read this account in the Qur’an. Only the relevant quote from the Qur’an is cited here in the following verses:

Surah 18:65-81: “Then they found one from among Our servants whom We had granted mercy from Us and whom We had taught knowledge from Ourselves. Moses said to him: Shall I follow you on condition that you should teach me right knowledge of what you have been taught? He said: Surely you cannot have patience with me and how can you have patience in that of which you have not got a comprehensive knowledge? Moses said: If Allah pleases, you will find me patient and I shall not disobey you in any matter. He said: If you would follow me, then do not question me about any thing until I myself speak to you about it.”

So they went on until, when they met a boy, he slew him. Moses said: Have you slain an innocent person otherwise than for manslaughter? Certainly you have done an evil thing. He said: Did I not say to you that you will not be able to have patience with me? Moses said: If I ask you about anything after this, keep me not in your company; indeed you shall have then found an excuse in my case.”

He said: This shall be separation between me and you; now I will inform you of the significance of that with which you could not have patience.”

And as for the boy, his parents were believers and we feared lest he should make disobedience and ingratitude to come upon them: So we desired that their Lord might give them in his place one better than him in purity and nearer to having compassion.” (Shakir)

These Qur’anic verses lay the foundation for Honor Killing. They show explicitly that Allah justifies the killing of a child for just the thought that the child would grow up to commit disobedience and ingratitude in the future. These Qur’anic verses go even further by saying that Allah would provide the parents with a better son than the one that they had before.  This is the basis for the justification of Honor Killing in Islam. The Qur’an reveals that it is of no consequence to Allah if a child who becomes un-Islamic is murdered. Parents who lose such a child through murder will be rewarded.

Since the Servant of Allah in this account was gifted with special knowledge to look into the future, he killed the boy before he could actually dishonor his family. The Servant of Allah feared that the boy would grow up to bring dishonor and shame on his family, hence the pre-emptive murder. Just think! This Servant of Allah did not even wait for the actual crime of dishonor to take place before killing the boy. And Moses had to learn “right knowledge” from this pre-emptive murderer. Islam’s values are warped!

However, since normal Muslims do not possess special gifts of any kind, they would not know how a child would turn out in the future. Hence, they have to wait until they perceive some kind of misconduct that they may judge as bringing dishonor to the family. And then they have the divine right to eliminate the child. The above Qur’anic verses authorize parents that if they have sufficient reasons to believe that their child is deviating from the religion of Allah, they can then murder that child with Allah’s blessing. Like Moses, they too have to learn “right knowledge” from Allah’s pre-emptive murderer.

So, when Muslims tells you that Honor Killing is not condoned in Islam it means one of the following: One, they do not know their own religion. Two, they are lying. The above Qur’anic verses show that the very thought of bringing shame in the future is enough to issue the death warrant on a child. Another Qur’anic verse that contributes to Honor Killing is Surah 4:34:

Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and as to those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in the sleeping-places and beat them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great. (Shakir)

This Qur’anic verse states that men are in charge of women, being their protectors and maintainers. What happens if a man fails in his duty to keep his women (wife/wives, daughters or sisters) within the domination of Islam? What if the women in his household are simply unwilling to comply? The pressure is then turned on him, by the Muslim community, to control the women entrusted to him. Thus, in order to keep the honor of his family – be it for any reason – the strain becomes so great that murder seems to be the only solution. Moreover, if wife-beating is permitted in Islam, can Honor Killing be far behind? If a Muslim husband is permitted by Allah to beat his disobedient wife in order to chastise her, just think what would a Muslim father do to chastise his rebellious daughter? For the Islamic rationale behind Honor Killing, we need to look no further than the following Qur’anic verses:

Surah 33:60-62: If the Hypocrites and those in whose hearts there is a sickness, and the scandal mongers in Madinah do not desist from their vile acts, We shall urge you to take action against them, and then they will hardly be able to stay in the city with you. They shall be cursed from all around and they shall be ruthlessly killed wherever they are seized. This has been Allah´s Way with those who have gone before, and you shall find no change in Allah´s Way. (Maududi)

Hypocrisy (Arabic: Nifaaq) means “Double-Facedness. It means a contradiction between one’s apparent and hidden self. Apparently the person is a believer but the inner self of the person is in disbelief. Hypocrisy is categorized as:

(1) Hypocrisy against Allah regarding actual faith. (2) Hypocrisy with Allah regarding the necessities of faith.

Thus, the term “Hypocrites” in the Qur’an refers both to those who renegade from Islam and also to those who deliberately fail to conform to the rulings and regulations of Islam while claiming to be Muslims.

In the minds of the victim’s family, the “rebellious” daughter is now viewed the same as an apostate when she refuses to follow the dictates of Islam – such as opting for Westernization or refusing an arranged marriage or running away from an abusive home to gain freedom. Tragically, she has to pay the Islamic price for her disobedience to Sharia law. Family relationship has no meaning under such circumstances and it is not allowed to stand in the way of Allah:

Surah 58:22: “You shall not find a people who believe in Allah and the latter day befriending those who act in opposition to Allah and His Messenger, even though they were their own fathers, or their sons, or their brothers, or their kinsfolk.” (Shakir)

And to the above list we can add “wives, daughters and sisters.” As it can be seen, the claim that Honor Killing is not Islamic because the Qur’an does not directly mentions it is a lie. Additionally, the fact that there are many other things which Muslims practice that are not mentioned in the Qur’an further invalidates this Muslim argument. For example, stoning to death for adultery is not mentioned in the Qur’an, yet the practice of stoning to death by the decree of the Islamic court can be found in strict Islamic countries. The same goes for circumcision.

The honest truth is that the murderers in Honor Killing are influenced primarily by the principles and commands laid out in the Qur’an and the Hadiths. It is because of these Islamic elements of support, we find that the perpetrators of this crime are left off easily by Islamic governments. And because Honor Killing finds its support in the moral principles of Islam, many Islamic governments find themselves unable to take the necessary steps to enact any criminal law to ban the barbaric slaughtering of innocent women/girls by their family members.

Although the crime Honor Killing is associated with the word “Honor, the crimes themselves are dishonorable. There is a pattern of gender hierarchy in Islam that culminates in the violence against Muslim women. These kind of cruel killings to save family honor have happened in the past, it is still happening and will continue to happen in the Muslim communities. Honor Killings will exist as long as Islam exists. While there may be isolated incidences of others who commit such murders, the great majority of the perpetrators worldwide are Muslims. While others act on their own, the murderous actions of the Muslims are religiously motivated.

In spite of all the evidences proving to the contrary, Muslims still deny that Honor Killing has anything to do with Islam. This is just the same as when they deny that the acts of terrorism by Muslim perpetrators have anything to do with Islam. Honor Killing can be stopped only when Muslims come to terms with the truth that it is a practice that is sanctioned in Islam. To stop a disease you must identify the virus. The Honor Killing virus is rooted deeply in the teachings of Islam.

However, even if we allow for the false claim that Islam is not responsible for Honor Killing, then it only goes on to show that Islam is a failed system. It proves the ineffectiveness of Islam. It shows that even after more than 1,400 years of its existence, it could not prevent the influence of a backward culture on its faithful believers. The fact that the killings are carried out mostly by the more faithful members of Islam, proves that Islam is not powerful enough to overcome this cultural gender backwardness that calls for the killing of women. In reality, does not this demonstrate that Islam is a failed system?

Additionally, if it is true that it is cultural, who then is promoting and influencing this cultural practice on every new generation of Muslims? None. The peoples, tribes and nationalities that lived by the rule of this culture do not exist today. Without the existence of this evil culture to influence Muslims, can Muslims honestly put the blame on culture? Even if such culture exists today, why are non-Muslims not affected by it? The absolute truth is that the only people who promote this backward barbaric practice of Honor Killing are Muslims themselves. Muslims are the only people in the world who believe in saving the honor of their family by destroying the family. They are taught to do so by their religion.

The fact is that the relation between Islam and Honor Killing is related more to the religious influence than Muslims are willing to admit. Even if Honor Killing originated in pre-Islamic Arab tribalism, it has long since been incorporated into the religious framework of Islam whereby it has become acceptable throughout the Muslim world. The refusal of Islamic authorities to unambiguously denounce Honor Killing proves that this practice does not contradict the spirit of Islam.

Contrary to such denial by Muslims, the evidences demonstrate that the prevailing dominating spirit within Islam condones the practice, whilst not recommending it openly for fear of a backlash. One of the most outstanding evidences to substantiate this point is the Umdat Al-Salik (“Reliance of the Sojourner” in Arabic). Umdat Al-Salik is a manual on Sharia (Islamic law) certified as a reliable guide to Sunni orthodoxy by Al-Azhar University. Al-Azhar University is the most prominent and authoritative institute of Islamic jurisprudence in the world.

Umdat al-Salik 01.1-2 states:

Retaliation is obligatory against anyone who kills a human being purely intentionally and without right.”

The Islamic manual then continues on to state:

(However) not subject to retaliation (is) a father or mother (or their fathers or mothers) for killing their offspring, or offspring’s offspring.”

Thus, according to this Islamic view, parents who murder their daughters to save the family honor, whether owing to issues of chastity, apostasy and the like, incurs no penalty under Sharia.

THE CHRISTIAN WAY TO DEAL WITH WILLFUL REBELLION

But, how does one handle willful persistent wrongdoers within a religious community? What do the teachings of Christianity say on this issue? During the first century, the Christian congregation in Corinth faced the situation of a man who unrepentantly practiced fornication. His conduct threatened not only the purity of the Christian congregation but it also became a scandal. Hence, Jehovah God rightly directed that the man be removed from the congregation. This act of removing an unrepentant sinner is known as “disfellowshipping” in Christian terminology. The person is not killed, but is removed from the Christian congregation. As such, he is no longer viewed as a fellow-believer. No Christian is permitted to associate with the disfellowshipped person.

1 Corinthians 5:11-13: But now I am writing you to quit mixing in company with anyone called a brother that is a fornicator or a greedy person or an idolater or a reviler or a drunkard or an extortioner, not even eating with such a man. For what do I have to do with judging those outside? Do you not judge those inside, while God judges those outside? “Remove the wicked man from among yourselves.”

That discipline had a good effect. The congregation was protected from the corrupting influence of the sinner. Since the wrongdoer had to now choose between pursuing his sinful course and losing the loving association of his family members as well as that of the Christian congregation, the sinner was brought to his senses and to sincere repentance. On the basis of evidences of the man’s sincere repentance, he was later reinstated into the Christian congregation:

2 Corinthians 2:6-8: This rebuke given by the majority is sufficient for such a man, so that, on the contrary now, you should kindly forgive and comfort him that somehow such a man may not be swallowed up by his being overly sad. Therefore I exhort you to confirm your love for him.

Till today, the Bible-based practice of disfellowshipping unrepentant wrongdoers has served to keep God’s holy name clear of reproach. It also protected the fine reputation of his people. It served to keep God’s congregation spiritually clean. But, the loving purpose behind the act of disfellowshipping is to hopefully move the sinner to repent and leave his sinful course. As for those who continue to remain unrepentant even after having been disfellowshipped, they are considered as no part of the Christian congregation as long as they continue in their sinful course.

It must be remembered that this form of discipline is administered only on those who display a willful disregard for the laws of God and deliberately persist in their sinful course. Many commit sin, sometimes even serious ones, which they regret deeply and beg for God’s forgiveness. And they strive hard to resist the sinful tendency. Such ones are not removed from the Christian congregation but rather they are helped to maintain their faithful course. So it does mean that each time a Christian commits a sinful act, he is automatically disfellowshipped. We worship a forgiving God.

Christians are never commanded by their God to murder those who turn aside from the Christian faith. And this includes murdering those who are members of their own family. Unlike Islam, there is absolutely no justification for Honor Killing in Christianity. The Holy Bible does not allow this. The true Creator is aware of the fact that sinners can repent and change their ways. 

Ezekiel 18:21-22: “Now as regards someone wicked, in case he should turn back from all his sins that he has committed and he should actually keep all my statutes and execute justice and righteousness, he will positively keep living. He will not die. All his transgressions that he has committed—they will not be remembered against him. For his righteousness that he has done he will keep living.”

In contrast, by ending an alleged sinner’s life, the murderers in Honor Killing are arrogantly assuming that the victim would never regret her sinful course or change her ways in the future. And they are also making the bold assumption that she would not be forgiven by God. This is a clear violation of God’s mercy and forgiveness. To think that one has the right to play God and kill someone is one of the gravest sins. And Islam sanctions these cold-blooded murders. Muslims are able to commit murder with impunity because Honor Killings are directly motivated and influenced by the teachings of the Qur’an. Honor Killing is the ultimate betrayal. The reason why Muslims desperately try to push the blame on culture and deny the authorization of Honor Killing in Islam is because deep inside they know that no decent religion would want to be associated with Murder in the name of Honor.

The prevalence of the practice of Honor Killing among Muslims shows that Islam lacks the moral fortitude of that of a true religion to stop this barbaric practice from happening among its faithful followers. Thus, Islam is false. It is a failed religious system. Ironically, Muslims are taught to believe that they are the best among mankind. And they murder to maintain this religious fabrication.

Surah 3:110: “You are the best of the nations raised up for the benefit of men; you enjoin what is right and forbid the wrong and believe in Allah.” (Shakir)

Yes, to maintain this image of Islam, Muslims willingly kill the fruitage of their belly. Islam cannot be the religion of the true God. The fruitage of Islam is rotten to the core. It produces dangerous fruits. It makes murderers out of those who are supposed to love and protect. It bloodies the hands that once rocked the cradle. The Holy Bible identifies the true source behind Honor Killings in Islam:

John 8:44:“You are from your father the Devil, and you wish to do the desires of your father. That one was a murderer when he began.”
