Rebuttal to Craig Winn "Prophet of Doom: Chapter 18" article:
This article is a rebuttal to Craig Winn's article that is located at: http://www.prophetofdoom.net/chapter18.html.
Important Note to the Reader:
Craig Winn purposely twisted and modified the English translations that he used! He changes words in translations and uses non-Muslim ones. I've noticed this a lot through his translations of the Noble Verses that he used from the Noble Quran.

List of Craig Winn's fabricated lies and deliberate alteration of quotes, WITH CLEAR-CUT PROOFS!
Before we proceed with his article, let us first look at the DARKNESS in his porn-full bible; the book of pedophilia, murder, terrorism, and women's vaginas and breasts taste like "wine":
Aisha in Islam: Let's discuss the age of Aisha being 9 when she married our Prophet (CLICK HERE): 1- See proofs, in the "Aisha being 9" article, from the Bible about little girls as young as 9 were married off and even sold off by their fathers as slave girls to men who were even older than their fathers. 2- See also irrefutable proofs that pedophilia and terrorism exist in the Bible. During the Mosaic times in the Bible's Old Testament, 3-year old slave girls were literally forced into sex under Moses' Orders and Command. You sometimes have to read things twice to believe them! See also: Maiming of the enemies' bodies in the Bible. Cutting the hands and feet of the enemies in the Bible, and hanging their live bodies on trees until they DIE. *** Killing of innocent children in the Bible. *** X-Rated Pornography in the Bible. *** Fathers sticking their fingers into their daughters' vaginas before marriage in the Bible.
Marriage for young girls was widely practiced among Arabs back then, and even today in many third-world non-Muslim and Muslim countries. Also visit: Why Muta (temporary) Marriage was allowed and why it was discontinued. |

CHAPTER 18
LUSTFUL LIBERTINE
The Prophet has a greater claim on the faithful
than they have on themselves.
The fourth year of the Islamic Era begins oddly. Ishaq:426 After Uhud, a group of men from Adal and Qarah came to the Messenger of Allah and said, O Prophet, we are good Muslims and have accepted Islam. Please send us some of your Companions to instruct us in the religion. Teach us to recite the Quran, and teach us the laws of Islam. If they were unaware of the faith, the Quran, and Islamic law, how could they have been good Muslims? Tabari gives us the answer. Tabari VII:145 The tribe of Lihyan was seeking vengeance for the killing of their chief, and they paid these men to ask for instructors. They were good Muslims because they wanted to become better militants. At least Islam is consistent.
Tabari VII:145 Other authorities have a different account of this expedition. One variant says: The Messenger sent out a group of ten men, putting Asim in command. When they arrived someone told the Lihyans about them. They sent a hundred archers against the Muslims. Why do you suppose they would do that? Werent these men on a religious mission? No, not hardly. Not only were they armed to the teeth, the mission itself was called a raid. Furthermore, most of Muhammads terrorist attacks hadnt been against the Quraysh, but instead against neighboring tribes. The bad boys of Medina had developed a reputation. Today, our politicians and media would say that they had ties to al-Qaeda.
Tabari VII:144/Ishaq:426 The Muslims bivouacked for the night and were taken by surprise. So the Muslims took up their swords [not Qurans] to fight them, but the Lihyans said, We do not want to kill you. We only want to get some money by selling you to the Meccans. We swear by Allahs Covenant that we will not kill you. By Allah, Asim said, we will never accept an agreement from an unbelieving infidel. They fought until they were killed. Both pagan and Muslim swore by the same god. Whats more, the pagans referenced Allahs Covenant,Qusayys schemethe foundation of Islam.
Later, we are told, Tabari VII:145 Khubayb gave himself up and became a prisoner. They took him to Mecca and handed him over to the sons of al-Harith, as Khubayb had killed their father at Uhud. They took Khubayb out of the Haram (sacred area around Mecca) to kill him. He asked to pray two rakahs, and he made two prostrations. After that, it became the Sunnah [example] for those about to be executed to pray two rakahs. Khubayb said, My death is for Allah he will bless the limbs of my mangled corpse. This is what the suicide bombers who destroyed the World Trade Center said between shouts of Allahu Akbar! They took him out and beheaded him.
Next we discover that Khubayb was crucified, not beheaded: Tabari VII:146 The Messenger sent Amr to the Quraysh as a spy. He said, I came to the cross on which Khubayb was bound and untied him. He fell to the ground, and I withdrew a short distance. When I turned round, I could not see a trace of Khubaybthe earth had swallowed him up. While Muslim militants are granted a stay in Allahs brothel, Khubayb, appears to have gone down, not up.
Moving on, its time for another assassination. Tabari VII:147 Amr was sent by Muhammad to kill Abu Sufyan [the Quraysh leader and merchant]. The Prophet said, Go to Abu Sufyan and kill him. When I entered Mecca I had a dagger ready to slay anybody who laid hold of me. My Ansar companion asked, Should we start by circumambulating the Kaaba seven times and praying two rakahs? I said, I know the Meccans better than you do. But he kept pestering me until in the end we went to the Kaaba, circumambulated it seven times, and prayed. A good Muslim is a religious assassin.
The Quraysh understood the corrosive influence of Islam better than we do. Tabari VII:148 One of the Meccans recognized me and shouted, That is Amr! They rushed after us, saying, By Allah, Amr has not come here for any good purpose! He has come for some evil reason. Amr had been a cutthroat and a desperado before accepting Islam. So naturally, he was attracted to Muhammad and inspired by Islam.
The Meccans set out in pursuit so I said, Lets get out of here! This is what I was afraid of! We will never reach Abu Sufyan now, so save your own skin. We left at full speed, took to the hills, hiding in a cave. In this way we gave them the slip. A life was spared because the Quraysh understood the nature of Islam. They recognized their enemy and correctly profiled their behavior.
While not all Muslims are terrorists, virtually all terrorists are Muslims. This should tell us something about Islam. According to independent surveys, eighty-five percent of terrorist acts worldwide are directly attributable to the Islamic faith. Yet Muslims represent less than twenty percent of the worlds population. Since the militants are called a radical minority lets say that only twenty percent of Muslims are jihad fighters in Allahs Cause. If thats true, four percent of the worlds population takes Islam seriously. One out of twenty-five humans emulate Muhammad's example and follow Allahs orders as revealed in the Quran and Hadith. These men and women are 2,000% more lethal than the rest of us.
Tabari VII:148 Amr said, Lets wait here until the cry has died down. They are sure to hunt for us tonight and tomorrow. In shades of Mogadishu, the Meccans sent too few men into harms way. I was still in the cave when Uthman bin Malik came riding proudly on his horse. He reached the entrance to our cave and I said to my Ansar companion, If he sees us, he will tell everyone in Mecca. So I went out and stabbed him with my dagger. He gave a shout and the Meccans came to him while I went back to my hiding place. Finding him at the point of death, they said, By Allah we knew that Amr came for no good purpose. The death of their companion impeded their search for us, for they carried him away. Murder number one.
We remained in the cave for two days until the pursuit had died down and then went out to Khubaybs cross. My companion said, Shall we take Khubayb down from his cross? I went to the cross and untied Khubayb [again]. I carried him on my back and had gone about forty paces when a guard spotted me. I threw Khubayb down, and will never forget the sound his body made when it fell. I managed to throw the guard off, ran to my companion, mounted his camel, and went to the Prophet to tell him what had happened.
A foiled assassination attempt and an isolated murder may seem unworthy of the attention Im affording them. But they were important to Muhammad, Ishaq, and Tabari, and thus to fundamental Islam. And by sharing every episode recorded by Islams first biographer and historian, leaving nothing of consequence out, I am confirming a profound truth. Islam, as it was taught and lived by Muhammad, was a terrorist dogma.
Tabari VII:149 On the way I went into a cave with my bow and arrows. While I was in it a one-eyed man from the Banu Bakr came in driving some sheep. He said, Whos there? I said [lied], Im a Banu Bakr. So am I. Then he laid down next to me, and raised his voice in song: I will not be a Muslim and will not believe in the faith of the Muslims. I said, You will soon see! Before long the Bedouin went to sleep and started snoring. So I killed him in the most dreadful way that anybody has ever killed. I leant over him, struck the end of my bow into his good eye, and thrust it down until it came out the back of his neck. After that I rushed out like a wild beast and took flight. Murder number two.
I came to the village of Naqi and recognized two Meccan spies. I called for them to surrender. They said no so I shot and arrow and killed one, and then I tied the other up and took him to Muhammad. Murder number three. Kidnapping number one. The Muslims were having fun. Tabari VII:150 I had tied my prisoners thumbs together with my bowstring. The Messenger of Allah looked at him and laughed so that his back teeth could be seen. Then he questioned me and I told him what had happened. Well done! he said, and prayed for me to be blessed. These are the ominous words of the Islamic Hadith, the only words written about this man and his religion within centuries of his death. And they are perverse. Three cold-blooded murders and a hostage taking earned a jovial laugh and a hearty, Well done!
Although I have shared this with you before, it bears repeating. While some Hadith may be exaggerated and some may be untrue, it doesnt matter. All that counts is that this is the sum total of what is known about the Muhammad of Islam. I have reported every significant event recorded by Tabari and Ishaqthe earliest, most respected, and comprehensive chroniclers of the Islamic faith. Therefore, what you have been reading is all Muslims know about their prophet. And that, I dare say, explains their behavior.
Tabari VII:150 In the month of Ramadhan (February 626), the Messenger married Zaynab bt. Khuzaymah. She had been married to Tufayl, who had divorced her. I believe that makes her the fifth member of the prophets collection.
Tabari VII:151/Ishaq:433 In this year there occurred the disaster of the expedition sent out by the Messenger to Bir Maunah. The polytheists had charge of the pilgrimage that year [confirming that the Hajj was pagan]. Abu Bara (One-Who-Plays-With-Spears), the chief of the Banu Amir, came to the Prophet and presented a gift. Muhammad said, I do not accept presents from pagans, so become a Muslim if you want me to accept it. He was willing to steal from any Abu, Tufayl, or Harith, but would not accept diplomatic gifts. Further, there is no empirical evidence that shows men behave better who worship one false god rather than many of them.
Muhammad expounded Islam to Abu Bara and invited him to accept it. He explained its advantages for him and Allahs promises to believers. He recited the Quran. Bara did not accept Islam. He said, Muhammad, this affair of yours is most excellent. If you were to send some of your Companions to my people to call them to your religious affair, I would hope that they would respond. This is great stuff. Muhammad presented the advantages for him to convert his subjects to Islam: Its the perfect tool for a chief like you, der prophet undoubtedly said. Muhammads religotic was designed to empower dictators. This is why the poligious doctrine survives after fourteen centuries. Islam wasnt called submission for nothing. Religion is an effective tool in the wrong hands.
Allahs prophet reviewed the dark spirits promises: booty for fighters, loot for the living and virgins for the victims; whats not to like? But, Chief Bara wouldnt accept Islam. Instead, he wanted his people converted. And that is the essence of the doctrine of submission. Even today, the tyrannical despots who rule the Islamic world arent Muslimstheir people are. The religion is used to control the masses, to fleece them for benefit of cleric and king. The chief knew that Islam would only be to his advantage if his people were coerced into submission.
Tabari VII:152/Ishaq:434 The Apostle was afraid to send his people to Abus tribe for fear they would kill them. But Chief Abu gave Muhammad a surety [collateral guarantee] so the he sent Mundhir [The-Quick-to-Seek-Death] with forty to seventy riders. After halting at Bir Maunah, they sent Haram to Amir Tufayl with a letter from Muhammad. When Haram arrived, Amir killed him. Then he set out and took the Muslims by surprise, surrounding them while they were encamped. On seeing them, the Muslims snatched up their swords and fought until they were all killed except Kab. The enemy left him at the point of death. Remember, this is after Allah had revealed the 8th and 3rd surahs, so the Muslims believed that they had to fight to the death.
As we pick up the story, word gets back to the prophet. Ishaq:434 Amr and an Ansari were out grazing camels and saw vultures circling around the camp. They went to investigate and saw their Companions lying in their blood. The Ansari said, What do you think we should do? Amr answered, Go tell the prophet. But they were spotted and the Ansari was killed. Amr was taken prisoner. He lied, were told, taking an oath on his mothers life, so they set him free. Amr hightailed it towards Medina, until, when he was at Qarqarah, two Banu Amir men halted near him in the shade. They had a compact of protection with Allahs Messenger which Amr knew nothing. Amr waited until they were asleep. Then he killed them, thinking that he had taken vengeance for the Muslims who had been slain. When he came to the Messenger, he told him what had happened. The Prophet said, You have killed men for whom I shall have to pay blood-money.
Muhammads soul wasnt troubled by the news that innocent men had been murdered. His only worry was that coin was going to slip from his pockets. Islam was never about saving souls; it was about stealing money.
In the midst of these Islamic terrorist raids, assassinations, murders, and kidnappings for ransom, the next headline appears somewhat benign. It reads: Expulsion of the Banu Nadir. Tabari VII:156/Ishaq:437 In the fourth year of the Islamic Era the Prophet expelled the Banu Nadir [a large Jewish community in Yathrib] from their homes. The cause of this was that Amr killed two men to whom had been given a promise of protection by the Apostle. Their chief wrote Muhammad asking him for blood-money. So the Prophet turned towards the Nadir [Jews] to seek their help in the payment of the blood money. With him were Bakr, Umar, and Ali. The Muslims had raided a caravan just north of Mecca. Muhammads adoptive son grabbed another east of Medina. They allegedly earned huge ransoms selling the Badr captives back to their families. They had plundered the Qaynuqa Jews, stealing their gold, armor, businesses, and homes. So, how could the pirate chest be bare?
The answer is as old as time. Those who steal dont value anything. They go on binges and need ever-larger fixes. Easy come; easy go. So turban in hand, Muhammad had to go begging, this time to the kin of those he had previously plundered. Wouldnt you like to have been a fly on the wall? Tabari VII:157/Ishaq:437 When the Prophet came to ask for their help in the payment of the blood-money, the Jews said, Yes, Abu al-Qasim [Muhammad]. Of course, we will give you the help you want in the way you want it. Then they spoke privately with one another [Before we listen to what Islam wants us to believe the Jews said in private, ask yourself, how did the Muslims know? And since they couldnt have known, what were they trying to accomplish by pretending to know?] Muhammad had gone outside and was sitting by a house wall. The Jews said, Who will go on the roof of this house and drop a stone, relieving us of him? The Muslim sages were trying to justify the exceedingly hostile behavior their prophet was about to exhibit.
I do not doubt that the Jews might have wanted the prophet dead. I would have wanted him dead. He was a menace to societya violent terrorist and common criminal. However, this plot is absurd. There is no chance Allahs guy, the grand pontiff of Medina, was sitting in the dirt against the wall of a Jewish home. And there was no chance someone had a stone big enough to kill a man sitting on a thatched (and thus pitched) roof. Further, the Nadir were prosperous farmers. If they wanted to execute Muhammad they would have used an implement more lethal than a stone.
Ishaq:437 Amr Jihash, who was one of the Jews, came forward and said, I am your man. He went up to the roof to drop the stone as arranged. Muhammad was with Bakr, Umar, and Ali [future Caliphs all], and the news of what the people intended came to him from Heaven. He got up and said, Do not leave until I come to you. This is Alis second run as stooge. A few years earlier he had been asked to wear the prophets pajamas, laying in wait for assassins wielding swords.
Guillaume in his translation of Ishaqs Sirat Rasul Allah, said: It is clear that a later story has been attached to this incident. Obviously, if the prophet had overheard their designs there was no need of a supernatural communication from heaven. In other words: the godly inspiration was a hoax.
While this account has more holes than a leaky roof, Tabari shares another take on Islams excuse. Tabari VII:157 Amr went up to the roof to roll the stone. News of this came to the Prophet from Heaven, and he got up as though he wished to relieve himself. His companions waited for him but he was gone for a long time. The Jews began to say, What has delayed Abu al-Qasim? Muhammads Companions left and Kinanah said, News of what you intended has reached him.
This justification is essential for Islam. It serves to excuse grotesque barbarism, grand larceny, and ultimately, genocide. Yet it was Muhammad who had to come to the Nadir to beg for blood money to excuse a double homicide. That does not bode well for their credibility. Ishaq:437 The Prophet went back to his home. When his Companions thought that he had been gone a long time they got up to look for him. On the way they told a man the story of the treachery intended by the Jews and ordered them to get ready to fight them and march against them. Since Muhammad had run away without telling his gang anything, how did they know?
Tabari VII:158 When the Messengers Companions returned they found him sitting in the mosque. They said, O Prophet, we waited for you but you did not come back. The Jews intended to kill me, he replied, and Allah informed me of it. [One rock to another, I suppose.] Call Muhammad bin Maslamah to me. When Muhammad came, he was told to go to the Jews and say, Leave my country. You have intended treachery. He went and said, The Messenger orders you to depart from his country. They replied, We never thought that an Aws would come with such a message. Hearts have changed, Muhammad said. Islam has wiped out our old covenants.
This is a stinging indictment. First, these Hadiths are contradictory. While conflicting scripture is common for Islam, this time its being used to justify a hideously immoral act. Second, Muhammad, the bad boy who had been banished from Mecca for reneging on the Quraysh Bargain and for threatening to slaughter his kin, was now claiming that Yathrib was his country. It wasnt Allahs; it wasnt Islams. It was his. Third, without any actual provocation, he ordered established families, thousands of them, from their homes because he wanted their property and their money.
The most incriminating lines were saved for last: Hearts have changed. Islam has wiped out our old covenants. Muhammads poligious doctrine was corrosive more dangerous than Mein Kampf. Anyone who trusts it is ruinedas is everyone around them. Todays terrorists have not corrupted their religion; Islam has corrupted them. There will be no peace until this false, intolerant, and violent doctrine is expunged from the earth.
Tabari VII:158/Ishaq:437 After telling his Companions about the treachery which the Jews had meditated against him, the Apostle ordered them to prepare for war and to march against them. To meditate is to quietly engage in thought or contemplation. If this is true, the Jews said nothing and did nothing. If its not true, Islams prophet is a liar. Either way, Muhammad was totally unjustified in ordering his militants to attack. The siege of the Nadir was an act of terrorism and piracy, proving that the sole founder of Islam was a vicious criminal.
Tabari VII:158/Ishaq:437 Muhammad personally led his men against the Nadir and halted in their quarter. The Jews took refuge against him in their homes, so he ordered their date palms to be cut down and burnt. They shouted, Muhammad, you have forbidden wonton destruction of property and have blamed those who perpetrated it. Why are you doing this? Muhammad didnt answer the question directly. He delegated the excuse to his god. A situational scripture authorizing destruction was handed down. 059.005 The palm trees you cut down or left standing intact was by Allahs dispensation so that He might disgrace the transgressors. Ill let you decide if the creator of the universe etched this line on an eternal tablet before the world was created or if Muhammad just made it up. But you should know that the 59th surah was revealed following the banishment of the Qaynuqa Jews the prior year, and yet the verses authorization was recited in past tense. Also, the obliteration of the date farm disgraced the transgressors only in the sense that Muhammad was the transgressor. Muslims confiscated the groves.
Wackidi writes: Tabari VII:158/Ishaq:437 Abd Allah bin Ubayy sent a message to the Nadir saying, Stand firm. I have two thousand Bedouin men who are united around me. Stay, and they will battle with you as will the Qurayza. However, Sallam, a Qurayza Jew said, We shall not break our compact as long as I am alive. We are eminent among the Jewish people by virtue of our wealth. Continuing to speak to the Nadir Jews the Qurayza leader said, Accept what Muhammad has proposed before you have to accept what is worse. What could be worse? Huyayy, the Nadir chief asked. The seizure of your wealth, the enslavement of your children, and the killing of your men, the Qurayza Jew replied. Huyayy refused to accept his advice. He told a Muslim courier, We will not leave our homes and farms; so do what you see fit.
How bizarre, a man named Slave-to-Allah rallied to aid the Jews against the Muslims. But its the Qurayza response that is foreboding. They were the largest community in Yathrib. By capitulating to the tyrant, by sacrificing their brethren, they doomed themselves to the very fate they feared. They were soon plundered, raped, sold into slavery, and murdered. This should be a haunting warning to the West, and particularly to the Israelis. Divided as they are now, with many willing to appease Islamic tyrants and trade land in hopes of retaining their treasure, they will lose everything.
As we continue with this horrific tale, consider the implications of the following Hadith in the context of Allah being either a pagan idol or Lucifer. The Messenger magnified Allah and the Muslims magnified Allah with him. This means they yelled, Allahu Akbar!Allah is Greatest! Ishaq:437 So Allah cast terror into the hearts of the Jews. Then the Prophet said, The Jews have declared war. According to the lying prophet, the Jews had declared war, yet they never wielded a sword or shot an arrow. They were simply besiegedstarved into submission.
Tabari VII:158 Judayy went to Abd Allah Ibn Ubayy to ask for support. He said, I found him sitting among a number of his companions while the Prophets crier was calling men to arms. He said, This is a clever trick of Muhammads. Yes, indeed. The Profitable Profit Plan was about to benefit from another clever trick. If mugging a jogger in Central Park is clever, this was downright brilliant.
The Messenger of Allah besieged the Nadir Jews for fifteen days. In the end they made peace with him on the condition that the Prophet would not kill them and that their property and their coats of mail would be his. They were forced to make peace, Islamic style. The false prophet said: You give me your property and I will allow you to live. But of course, our profiteer acted with Allahs blessing, making him an Apostle and terror religious.
If, after reading these words, you believe that Muhammad, the instigator and perpetrator of this heinous crime, was a conduit to God, you are as lost as he was. If you believe that Islam was conceived as a tolerant and peaceful religion to save mens souls, you are sadly mistaken.
For non-Muslims, I trust you find these words sobering. The negative implications associated with our continued ignorance of Islam are staggering. This is not merely a history lesson. Muhammad claimed that he had spiritual authority for his barbarism. He started a religion to justify his atrocities and to perpetrate others. That makes Islam the most evil dogma ever conceivedand the most dangerous.
Whats more, the first Muslims were proud of themselves. They conceived many Hadith to express their joy. The first is rather blunt: Tabari VII:159 The Messenger of Allah besieged the Banu Nadir for fifteen days until he had reduced them to a state of utter exhaustion, so that they would give him what he wanted. The terms in which the Prophet made peace with the Jews were: he would not shed their blood, he would expel them from their lands and settlements, providing for every three of them a camel and a water-skin. Its getting harder to write polite commentary on this %#$@&! behavior. With Islam, the price of peace has been defined: your home, your property, your business, your country, your everything.
Tabari VII:159 The Prophet fought them until he made peace with them on condition that they evacuate Yathrib. He expelled them to Syria but allowed them to keep what their camels could carry, except for their coats of mail and weapons. Imagine what it was like to record this Hadith. What must the Islamic sage have thought? Imagine being a Muslim today and stumbling upon this. What are your options? If you reject these Hadith Collections, there is no record of the prophet and thus there is no Islam, as he was the lone messenger. Apart from the Sira and Sunnah nothing is known about Muhammad or Islams formation. Without his example, the Five Pillars all vanish. Without context and chronology, the Quran becomes a meaningless and disjointed rant.
Its a lose-lose proposition. If you accept the Hadith as true, as the path to God, the model of morality, you are destined to become a like-minded terrorist. But if you reject them, you lose everything: your culture, political system, laws, religion, prophet, and god. Further, the faithful will kill you.
In context, the siege and banishment of the Nadir was outrageous. The people who had built Yathrib, who had lived there peacefully for a thousand years, were forced out of their homes and from their farms by men who had just barely arrived. Less than seventy Muslims had invaded their town, yet, burning with hatred and uncontrollable greed, they plundered it.
Ishaq:438 The Jews loaded their camels with their wives, children, and property. There were tambourines, pipes and singing. They went to Khaybar with such splendor as had never been seen from any tribe. The Jews were giving the Muslims an important message. Even deprived of their worldly possessions, Yahwehs chosen possessed something better than Allahs chosen would ever know.
Ishaq:438 The Nadir left their property to Muhammad and it became his personal possession, to do with it as he wished. He divided it among the Emigrants, to the exclusion of the Ansar. But gone was not forgotten. Before we leave this dreadful example of what fundamental Islam did to mens minds and souls you must know that the Nadir will be hunted again. The next time it wont be so pleasant.
Muhammads biographer claims Allah revealed these Quran verses to his prophet to celebrate the occasion: Ishaq:438 Allah wreaked His vengeance on the Jews and gave His Apostle power over them and control to deal with them as he wished. Allah said, I turned out those who disbelieved of the Scripture People from their homes. You did not think that they would go but I came upon them and terrorized them. And in the next world I will torment them again with a painful punishment in Hell. The palm trees you cut down were by Allahs permission; they were uprooted on My order. It was not destruction but it was vengeance from Allah to humble the evildoers. The spoil which Allah gave the Apostle from the Nadir belongs to him. Ishaq is suggesting that the 59th surah was handed down regarding the Nadir siege rather than the Qaynuqa raid. But that cant be, since the rest of the surah deals with the defeat at Uhud that prompted the Qaynuqa attack.
Muhammad dropped a string of prophetic pearls, all dutifully collected by al-Bukhari, so that Muslims would not miss his message of racial hatred, terrorism, oppression, and greed: Bukhari:V4B52N153 The properties of Banu Nadir which Allah had transferred to His Apostle as Fair Booty were not gained by the Muslims with their horses and camels. The properties therefore, belonged especially to Allahs Apostle who used to give his family their yearly expenditure and spend what remained thereof on arms and horses to be used in Allahs Cause. Since the dastardly deed was Muhammads scheme start to finish, the booty was all his. And, in direct contradiction with the Quran, Muhammad didnt use his ill-gotten gain to bribe his mercenaries. He used it to buy the affection of his wives and to acquire more weapons of war. Saintly behavior, it was not.
Muhammad was not the first tyrant to besiege and plunder, to terrorize, a defenseless community. He was not the first warlord to lure mercenaries into his ranks by sharing some of the property he had stolen. Allahs messenger wasnt the first pervert to buy love following a conquest. And Islams prophet wasnt the first psychopath to trade booty for weapons so that he could continue plundering. But he was the first do do so while perpetrating a religious scam.
Bukhari:V4B52N176 Allahs Apostle said, You Muslims will fight the Jews till some of them hide behind stones. The stones will betray them saying, O Abdullah (slave of Allah)! There is a Jew hiding behind me; so kill him. This must have been a real crowd pleaser because there is a second variation. Bukhari:V4B52N177 Allahs Apostle said, The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him. By this time, the talking Black Stone had delivered ninety percent of the Quran, so Muhammad was familiar with interpreting their special form of communication.
The next Hadith is among the most telling in Islam. Bukhari:V4B52N220 Allahs Apostle said, I have been sent with the shortest expressions bearing the widest meanings, and I have been made victorious with terror. While I was sleeping [besieging], the keys to the treasures of the world were brought to me and put in my hand. He started with his own family, the Quraysh, and then moved on to Yahwehs family, the Jews.
Some of the poetic highlights associated with this abusive behavior include: Ishaq:440 Helped by the Holy Spirit we smited Muhammads foes. He is a true Messenger from the Compassionate, an Apostle reciting Allahs Book. He became honored in rank and station. So the Apostle sent a message to them with a sharp cutting sword. The Holy Spirit is another concept stolen from the Bible. It is grossly misapplied by Muhammad. I cover the Holy Spirits actual nature on page 608 in response to another bogus claim. But there was some Islamic truth revealed here. The Apostle sent a message with a sharp cutting sword.
Ishaq:441 A man who had neither shown treachery nor bad faith haply had a change of fortune and took revenge, cutting down their palm trees and killing the Nadir. A sharp sword in the hand of a brave man kills his adversary. The rabbis were disgraced for they denied mighty Lord Allah. Ishaq:442 Sword in hand we brought down the Nadir. By Muhammads order we beguiled them. Actually it was the Muslims who were beguiled.
Moving on, we find that it didnt take long before the Muslim militants needed another fix: Tabari VII:162/Ishaq:445 There is a difference of opinion as to which of his expeditions [terrorist raids] took place after the one against the Banu Nadir. Some say Muhammad remained in Yathrib for two months before leading a raid on Najd, directed against the Banu Muharib and Thalabah. As the armies approached one another, no fighting took place, because our army was afraid of theirs. Allahs killer angels must have been preoccupied. This also suggests that the Nadir Jews were unarmed.
The Sira and Tarikh say: Tabari VII:162/Ishaq:445 The rules of the Prayer of Fear were revealed during this raid. [And confirmed in surah 4:102] The Messenger of Allah divided the Companions into two groups; one stood facing the enemy while the other stood behind the Prophet. He magnified Allah by shouting Allahu Akbar. Then he and those behind him performed a rakah and prostrated themselves. Magnifying Allah is The Prayer of Fearhow appropriate for a terrorist dogma. According to the Hadith, The Prayer of Fear is comprised of shouting: Allahu Akbar!Allah is Greatest!
Greater than whom is the obvious question. Greater than Ar-Rahman? Greater than Hubal, Al-Lat, Al-Uzza, or Manat? Or does Allah want to be greater than Yahweh? And while you might think that Im poking fun, Im not. This is a lose-lose game for Islam. If Allah is claiming to be the greatest pagan god, Islam is a farce. And Allah cannot be greater than Yahweh because he claimed to be the Ilah of Abraham and the author of the Torah and Gospels.
Allahu Akbar! is the war chant of Islamic terrorists everywhere, even today. The fact its called The Prayer of Fear reveals the doctrines purpose.
Islamic dictionaries translate Allahu Akbar as Allah is Greater, Greatest, or Most Great. Yet contemporary Muslim apologists would prefer you to believe that it means God is Great. Those who profit from imposing Islam recognize that exposing such truth would devastate their power base. So they willfully and knowingly contradict Allah and Muhammad, the Quran and Sunnah, to protect what they covet. Since so much is at stake, lets examine Islams most telling and most frequently quoted slogan in context. While out on a terrorist raid: The Prophet magnified Allah by shouting Allahu Akbar. To magnify is to make bigger or greater. Yet God is infinite. Yahweh cannot be magnified or be made greater. But a man can be magnified, and so can Satan.
The only scenario in which Islams most important slogan makes sense is as follows: Muhammad created Allahs persona. A rock idol became his alter ego. But it was worse than that. Muhammad was possessed, selling his soul to the Devil. He spoke on Lucifers behalf. The fallen angel masqueraded as Gabriel and inspired much of the Quran. Insecure and insignificant, deceitful, evil, and covetous, they needed to be feared and to be magnified.
In the overall scope of things, this next Tradition is of little consequence. Yet, in its own way, it helps establish the relationship between the true nature of Islam and the behavior of Muslims. Tabari VII:164 We went out with the Messenger on a raid to Dhat Riqa in the neighborhood of Nakhl. At one point, a Muslim killed a polytheist woman. When Muhammad was on his way back to Yathrib, her husband swore he would not rest until he had wrought bloodshed among the Prophets Companions. He followed our tracks. Muhammad set up guards at night, an Ansar and an Emigrant. The womans husband saw them and shot an arrow. The Ansari pulled it out, put it down, and remained standing in prayer. The man shot a second and third arrow at him, but exactly the same thing happened. Finally the Ansari, after bowing and prostrating himself, woke his companion. Sit up. I have been wounded. The Emigrant leapt to his feet. When the womans husband saw the two of them there, he fled. Then the Emigrant, seeing the Ansaris bloodstained condition, exclaimed, Allah Almighty! Why didnt you wake me the first time he shot you? I was in the middle of reciting a Surah and I did not want to stop without finishing it. Islam precludes rational thought and behavior.
After murdering one mans wife, Muhammad added a sixth to his harem. Tabari VII:167 The Messenger married Umm Salamah. In this year also, the Prophet commanded Zayd bin Thabit to study the Book of the Jews, saying, I fear that they may change my Book. In this year the polytheists were in charge of the Meccan Pilgrimage. These three sentences end year four of the Islamic Era. An overly-sexed prophet comes within one of having a different girl for every night of the week. Then the prophetic imposter called the Bible his book, rather than Allahs, and said that he was afraid the Jews would change it. Muhammad may, therefore, have been so delusional that he thought these local Jews would alter Scripture to foil him. Or he was so deviously deceitful he needed more scripture than the Jews were willing to sell. So he asked Zayd to study the Book as a source of future Quran revelations. And he did just that. Ill give you one guess as to who Muslims, via their Hadith, claim was responsible for collecting the Qurans surahs into a book. Then, proving that Islam was just regurgitated paganism, the Pilgrimage, or Hajj, was in the hands of the polytheists.
My response:
First of all, as I proved in my previous rebuttals, the Al-Tabari and Ibn-Ishaq and other sources are extremely doubtful and unauthenticated. Most Muslim scholars today firmly and strongly believe in this. Not that the hadiths above are bad or anything, but as most Muslim Scholars agree, we Muslims can't take them as absolute Truth or accurate information. Much of these volumes are either corrupt or taken out of context. Again, this is according to the Muslims scholars. This is why these volumes are considered "unauthenticated".
Also visit: What parts of the Bible and Hadiths do Muslims believe are closest to the Truth, and Why?
Now having said all of that, The hateful polytheist trinitarian pagan's lies and absurdities above raised the following points:
1- Jihad in Islam against the hostile pagans, and the Judgement that came upon them after they were defeated!
2- Jihad started with the Bible! Yet, we don't see the hypocrite saying anything about the Judgement that came upon the enemies in the Bible!
3- The status of the Jews and their treason against not only the Muslims, but also the Biblical Prophets as well!
Point #1:
( Jihad in Islam
against the hostile pagans, and the Judgement that came upon them after they were
defeated!)
From http://www.answering-christianity.com/jihad.htm:
What is Jihad and laws of war in Islam?
The sections of this article are:
1- What is Jihad?
2- The laws of war in Islam.
3- The treatment of prisoners of war in Islam.
4- Did Islam spread by the sword? If so, was that Jihad?
1- What is Jihad?
Jihad means struggling in the name of Allah Almighty. Jihad doesn't always mean a war or battle. Any mean for spreading Islam and the Truth, or to fight for what is right and condemn what is wrong (such as fighting the bad and helping the oppressed even if they were not Muslims) are considered Jihad.
I am doing Jihad right now by maintaining my web site, because it is a tool that can be used for spreading Islam and the Truth. And because it is also a Media tool, it could be used for fighting for what is right and condemning what is wrong.
Islam is not a religion of arms and swords! When Allah Almighty revealed the Noble Quran to Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, and Muhammad became the Messenger of GOD Almighty, Muhammad had to spread Islam to 365 Pagan Arab Tribes. These tribes showed so much hostility toward the Muslims and Islam, and have imposed so many battles against the Muslims.
Later, when Islam was the religion of what we call today Saudi Arabia, and the 365 Pagan Arab tribes mostly converted to Islam, the Muslims had to yet face another type of challenge.
The Nuclear Soviet Union and the United States of America of our days were the Great Empires of the Christian Romans and the Pagan Persians. If you know geography and history well enough, then you would see that the Muslims were trapped between those two big Super Powers.
Hostility and Battles from those two Empires were imposed upon the Muslims. For instance, when our Prophet peace be upon him sent his messenger to "Kisrah", the Emperor of Persia, introducing Islam to him, Kisrah ordered for the Muslims' Messenger to be executed!
Back then, like today, this was considered a coward act. It was the Persians who showed the hostility toward the Muslims and declared the many battles against Islam.
The Christian Romans weren't any better. For instance, in one of their many battles against the Muslims is when they saw the threat to their religion in the Middle East, the King "Herucl", sent out an army of 100,000 men and ordered them to go to "Madina" in what we call today Saudi Arabia to destroy Islam once and for all.
The Muslims were not stable yet at that time, and they only sent out an army of 3,000 men at that time to drive the Christian Romans away from Madina. The battle was named "The battle of Mo'ta" and it took place in Mo'ta, Jordan today.
The Muslims' plan was to meet the Christian Romans far away from Madina, and to have them stray away from Madina. The army of 3,000 men was successful enough to fight the Christian Romans for few days and then to pull away from the battle and headed South of Jordan. The Romans strayed away from Madina and the small army of the Muslims was able to run away through the mountains. More than half of the 3,000 Muslims however were killed in this operation.
The point is that Islam didn't spread by sword with much choice. The wars were imposed upon the Muslims. The Muslims didn't ask for those wars.
Islam is a Religion of Love and Peace and Forgiveness [1] [2] [3] [4] [5].
Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him never took any personal revenge from anyone.
What does the Qu'ran say about violence? Why does the Noble Quran contain Verses that command the Muslims to fight? See the justified and good reasons behind it.
In regards to Jihad and fighting the hostile enemy, Allah Almighty Made it crystal clear in the Noble Quran about being peaceful to ordinary and peaceful non-Muslims, and being very hostile to the hostile enemy:
"Fight in the cause of God those who fight you, but do not transgress limits; for God loveth not transgressors. (The Noble Quran, 2:190)"
"On that account: We ordained for the Children of Israel that if any one slew a person - unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land - it would be as if he slew the whole people: and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people. Then although there came to them Our apostles with clear signs, yet, even after that, many of them continued to commit excesses in the land. (The Noble Quran, 5:32)"
"Those who invoke not, with God, any other god, nor slay such life as God has made sacred except for just cause, nor commit fornication; - and any that does this (not only) meets punishment. (But) the Penalty on the Day Of Judgement will be doubled To him, and he will dwell Therein in ignominy. (The Noble Quran, 25:68-69)""But if the enemy incline towards peace, do thou (also) incline towards peace, and trust in God: for He is One that heareth and knoweth (all things). (The Noble Quran, 8:61)"
"If thou dost stretch thy hand against me, to slay me, it is not for me to stretch my hand against thee to slay thee: for I do fear God, the cherisher of the worlds. (The Noble Quran, 5:28)"
"But if the enemy incline towards peace, do thou (also) incline towards peace, and trust in God: for He is One that heareth and knoweth (all things). (The Noble Quran, 8:61)"
"If thou dost stretch thy hand against me, to slay me, it is not for me to stretch my hand against thee to slay thee: for I do fear God, the cherisher of the worlds. (The Noble Quran, 5:28)"
"God does not forbid you from showing kindness and dealing justly with those who have not fought you about religion and have not driven you out of your homes. God loves just dealers. (The Noble Quran, 60:8)"
"And fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is for God. But if they desist, then let there be no hostility except against wrongdoers. (The Noble Quran 2:193)"
"Let there be no compulsion in religion: Truth stands out clear from error: whoever rejects evil and believes in Allah hath grasped the most trustworthy handhold, that never breaks. And Allah heareth and knoweth all things. (The Noble Quran, 2:256)"
"Again and again will those who disbelieve, wish that they had bowed (to God's will) in Islam. Leave them alone, to enjoy (the good things of this life) and to please themselves: let (false) hope amuse them: soon will knowledge (undeceive them). (The Noble Quran, 15:2-3)"
"Say, 'The truth is from your Lord': Let him who will believe, and let him who will, reject (it):......(The Noble Quran, 18:29)"
"If it had been thy Lord's will, they would all have believed,- all who are on earth! wilt thou then COMPEL mankind, against their will, to believe! (The Noble Quran, 10:99)"
"Say: 'Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger: but if ye turn away, he is only responsible for the duty placed on him and ye for that placed on you. If ye obey him, ye shall be on right guidance. The Messenger's duty is only to preach the clear (Message). (The Noble Quran, 24:54)"
"Say : O ye that reject Faith! I worship not that which ye worship, Nor will ye worship that which I worship. And I will not worship that which ye have been wont to worship, Nor will ye worship that which I worship. To you be your Way, and to me mine. (The Noble Quran, 109:1-6)"
The reason for
"Jihad" Noble Verses:
The so-called "Jihad" Noble Verses came for specific times and places.
They don't apply for all times and everybody! I can't slay you, a non-Muslim, just
because you're not a Muslim. The pagan Arabs were very hostile people and only knew
the sword as an answer. Many wars were imposed upon the Muslims, and thus, it is
only normal and natural to find Noble Verses that deal with these specific hostile
situations. But the Message of the Noble Quran is PEACE, as clearly
proven in Noble Verses 2:190, 8:61 and 5:28 above.
2- The laws of war in Islam:
Muslims are forbidden from attacking others who do not attack them:
"Fight in the cause of God those who fight you, but do not transgress limits; for God loveth not transgressors. (The Noble Quran, 2:190)"
Fighting in the cause of GOD Almighty those who fight us is what "Jihad" is all about. I can't go and kill a non-Muslim just because he is a non-Muslim. That is absolutely forbidden in Islam:
"On that account: We ordained for the Children of Israel that if any one slew a person - unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land - it would be as if he slew the whole people: and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people. Then although there came to them Our apostles with clear signs, yet, even after that, many of them continued to commit excesses in the land. (Noble Quran 5:32)"
"Those who invoke not, with God, any other god, nor slay such life as God has made sacred except for just cause, nor commit fornication; - and any that does this (not only) meets punishment. (But) the Penalty on the Day Of Judgement will be doubled To him, and he will dwell Therein in ignominy. (The Noble Quran, 25:68-69)"Jihad can only be declared when the Muslims are attacked. Muslims are not allowed to attach those who do not attack them. And even when war breaks out, if the enemy offers an honest peace, then we should accept it and end the blood shed:
"But if the enemy incline towards peace, do thou (also) incline towards peace, and trust in God: for He is One that heareth and knoweth (all things). (The Noble Quran, 8:61)"
And if a treaty of peace was made, then we must honor that treaty to the end:
"Except those who join a group between whom and you there is a treaty (of peace), or those who approach you with hearts restraining them from fighting you as well as fighting their own people. If God had pleased, He could have given them power over you, and they would have fought you: Therefore if they withdraw from you but fight you not, and (instead) send you (Guarantees of) peace, then God Hath opened no way for you (to war against them). (The Noble Quran, 4:90)"
"How can there be a league, before God and His Apostle, with the Pagans, except those with whom ye made a treaty near the sacred Mosque? As long as these stand true to you, stand ye true to them: for God doth love the righteous. (The Noble Quran, 9:7)"
3- The treatment of prisoners of war in Islam:
Please visit Can Muslims torture prisoners of war?
4- Did Islam spread by the sword? If so, was that Jihad?
Please visit Why did Muhammad take up arms and Christ didn't? Why did Islam spread by the sword if it were indeed a Religion of Truth, and Christianity didn't? Jesus killed his enemies.
The Muslims did not start any battle with anyone. It was the infidels from the 365 Arab Pagan tribes, and later the Persian and Roman Empires who waged wars against the Muslims. So, yes, since the Muslims were not the aggressors, then this was Jihad; "Fight in the cause of God those who fight you, but do not transgress limits; for God loveth not transgressors. (The Noble Quran, 2:190)"
Point #2:
(Jihad started with the Bible! Yet, we don't see the hypocrite saying anything about
the Judgement that came upon the enemies in the Bible!)
From www.answering-christianity.com/jihad_in_bible.htm:
Jihad (Fighting for the Cause of GOD Almighty) started with the Bible!
The sections of this article are:
1- Jihad in the Bible.
2- Inhumane slavery as a direct result of the Bible's Jihad.
3- Conclusion.
1- Jihad in the Bible:
Christians often refer to Islam as a terrorist religion, and they abuse the Arabic word "Jihad" and portray it as a reference to terrorism. We must not forget that JIHAD began in the Bible, where GOD Almighty Commanded His followers to fight for His Holy Cause. Let us look at what the Bible says about Jihad:
GOD Almighty Chose the land of Palestine to be the Jews' "Promise
Land", and thus, ordered them to go into it and fight the pagans
there so they can have possession over it:
Numbers 13:26-28
26 They came back to Moses and Aaron and the whole Israelite
community at Kadesh in the Desert of Paran. There they reported to them and to the whole
assembly and showed them the fruit of the land.
27 They gave Moses this account: "We went into the land to which you sent
us, and it does flow with milk and honey! Here is its fruit.
28 But the people who live there are powerful, and the cities are fortified and very
large. We even saw descendants of Anak there.
One simple Question:
Did the disbelievers in the land of Palestine during the times of Moses start any
war with the Hebrews who ORIGINALLY came from Egypt?? Absolutely Not!
Later on, the Hebrews or the "Israelites" or the "Jews" (call them as
you wish) have committed Pedophilia, Murders and Terrorism
against those disbelievers:
"Now kill all the boys [innocent kids]. And kill every woman who has slept with a man, but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man. (Numbers 31:17-18)"
Now what crime did the innocent children and non-virgin women commit in order for them to get killed?
It's funny how one of the 10 Commandments say "Thou shalt not kill. (Exodus 20:13)", and yet, the bible ordered the killing of innocent children and non-virgin girls.
Also, according to the Talmud's historical elaborations on Numbers 31:17-18 above, Moses gave direct orders for his men to have SEXUAL INTERCOURSE with every VIRGIN GIRLS who was AT LEAST 3 YEARS OLD:
"....The Tannaïtic Midrash Sifre to Numbers in §157 comments on the above quoted commandment of MOSES to kill the Midianite women as well as the male children...."
"....According to the Tannaïte Rabbis, MOSES therefore had ordered the Israelites to kill all women older than three years and a day, because they were "suitable for having sexual relations." [138]...."
"Said Rabbi Joseph, "Come and take note: A girl three years and one day old is betrothed by intercourse....."
"A girl three years and one day old is betrothed by intercourse. "A girl three years old may be betrothed through an act of sexual intercourse," the words of R. Meir. And sages say, "Three years and one day old."....."
The detailed quotes, elaborations and bibliography are all listed at:
3-year old girls were forced into sex in the Bible!
Aisha in Islam: Let's discuss the age of Aisha being 9 when she married our Prophet (CLICK HERE): 1- See proofs, in the "Aisha being 9" article, from the Bible about little girls as young as 9 were married off and even sold off by their fathers as slave girls to men who were even older than their fathers. 2- See also irrefutable proofs that pedophilia and terrorism exist in the Bible. During the Mosaic times in the Bible's Old Testament, 3-year old slave girls were literally forced into sex under Moses' Orders and Command. You sometimes have to read things twice to believe them!

Marriage for young girls was widely practiced among Arabs back then, and even today in many third-world non-Muslim and Muslim countries. Also visit: Why Muta (temporary) Marriage was allowed and why it was discontinued. |
2- Inhumane slavery as a direct
result of the Bible's Jihad:
After the pagans had been defeated and taken as slaves, the Jews had all of them under their possessions:
From http://www.answering-christianity.com/slaves.htm:
Leviticus 25:44-46 "Your male and female
slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves.
You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their
clans born in your country, and they will become your property. You can will
them to your children as inherited property and can make them slaves for life,
but you must not rule over your fellow Israelites ruthlessly."
What kind of a human value does the Bible give to slaves? If slaves and their children must be inherited and passed down to newer generations as slaves, then how in the world will they ever gain their freedom? Does the Bible believe in Freedom? Does the Bible believe in liberating human beings from slavery? Apparently it does not.
Let's compare this with the Noble Quran:
Noble Verse 24:33 "Let those who find not the wherewithal for marriage keep themselves chaste, until God gives them means out of His grace. And if any of your slaves ask for a deed in writing (to enable them to earn their freedom for a certain sum), give them such a deed if ye know any good in them: yea, give them something yourselves out of the means which God has given to you. But force not your maids to prostitution when they desire chastity, in order that ye may make a gain in the goods of this life. But if anyone compels them, yet, after such compulsion, is God, Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful (to them),"
In this Noble Verse, we see that if a slave requests his freedom from his Muslim master, then his master not only must help him earn his freedom if there is good in the slave, but also pay him money so the slave can have a good start in his free life. We also see in this Noble Verse that slaves are not to be forced into prostitution in anyway.
Allah Almighty in the Noble Quran Commands the Muslims to free their slaves if the slaves want to be free, and to pay them money too so they can have a good jump start in life. In the Bible on the other hand, we see slaves not being allowed to be freed at all, and on the contrary, they and their children must be inherited forever.

3- Conclusion:
Due to the ridiculous and constant attacks that the Christian and Western media bring on Islam, it is time to shed the Light of Truth! Jihad is a Biblical practice before it is Islamic. In Islam, we are Commanded to fight evil where ever it is and by all means! It doesn't always have to be through swords and blood shed. GOD Almighty Commanded the Muslims to fight hard using the Divine Truth of the Noble Quran:
"Therefore listen not to the Unbelievers, but strive against them with the utmost strenuousness, with the (Quran). (The Noble Quran, 25:52)"
"Invite (all) to the way of thy Lord with wisdom and beautiful preaching; and argue with them in ways that are best and most gracious: For thy Lord knoweth best, who have strayed from His Path, and who receive guidance.
(The Noble Quran, 16:125)"The Bible as shown above is responsible for so much blood shed, pedophilia, murders and terrorism. Yet, we don't see any Christian minister (who is very knowledgeable about the book) say anything about it. But when Muslims do commit killing, such as what happened on 9/11, then Hell breaks loose and everyone becomes peaceful and a preacher, and Islam is the only evil thing out there, even though Islam is truly the BEST Peaceful and Just Divine Religion out there if it's practiced right. Such hypocrisy, lies and deceptions by the ministers and other Islamphobics only survives with the "dumb, deaf and blind (2:18)" as Allah Almighty called them in the Noble Quran. But to the reasonable and just people, the Truth is always realized, whether it is sooner or later.

Point #3:
(The status of the Jews and
their treason against not only the Muslims, but also the Biblical Prophets as well!)
From http://www.answering-christianity.com/craig_winn_jews_rebuttal.htm:
My below responses will be divided into 3 main sections:
1- The Jews'
status in the Bible.
2- The Noble
Quran is clear about the Jews. Some of them are Great people, and most of them are
evil ones.
3- After the
Jews' betrayal to the Prophet peace be upon him, it became necessary to punish them and
cleanse them out of the Holy Lands.
1- The Jews' status in the Bible:
Now according to the Bible itself, most Jews are people of evil, lies and worst of all, betrayal. Let us look at what the Bible also says about them:
"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! (From the KJV Bible, Matthew 23:37)"
"Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. (From the KJV Bible, Matthew 21:43)"
"You have heard these things; look at them all. Will you not admit them? "From now on I will tell you of new things, of hidden things unknown to you. They are created now, and not long ago; you have not heard of them before today. So you cannot say, 'Yes, I knew of them.' You have neither heard nor understood; from of old your ear has not been open. Well do I know how treacherous you are; you were called a rebel from birth. For my own name's sake I delay my wrath; for the sake of my praise I hold it back from you, so as not to cut you off. (From the NIV Bible, Isaiah 48:6-9)"
"So I will disgrace the dignitaries of your temple, and I will consign Jacob to destruction and Israel to scorn. (From the NIV Bible, Isaiah 43:28)"
"But now, all you who light fires and provide yourselves with flaming torches, go, walk in the light of your fires and of the torches you have set ablaze. This is what you shall receive from my hand: You will lie down in torment. (From the NIV Bible, Isaiah 50:11)"
Further more from www.answering-christianity.com/bible_quran_differences.htm:
The Bible gives ample evidence of their blasphemy to GOD Almighty. You can read in full details the following Biblical books:
Exodus 32 - They built their golden calf god using their jewelry.
Exodus 34 - The Jews are hard-headed people who don't listen.
Deuteronomy 31 - Moses is concerned about the Jews' future after his death because they are constantly rebellious against the Holy Words and Law of GOD Almighty.
Here are some sample verses from the chapters above:
Exodus 32
1 When the people saw that Moses was so long in coming down from the
mountain, they gathered around Aaron and said, "Come, make us gods who
will go before us. As for this fellow Moses who brought us up out of Egypt,
we don't know what has happened to him."
Exodus 32
7 Then the LORD said to Moses, "Go down, because your people, whom you
brought up out of Egypt, have become corrupt.
8 They have been quick to turn away from what I commanded them and
have made themselves an idol cast in the shape of a calf. They have bowed down to it and
sacrificed to it and have said, 'These are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of
Egypt.'
9 "I have seen these people," the LORD said to Moses, "and they
are a stiff-necked people.
Exodus 34
8 Moses bowed to the ground at once and worshiped. 9 "O Lord,
if I have found favor in your eyes," he said, "then let the Lord go with us. Although
this is a stiff-necked people, forgive our wickedness and our sin, and take
us as your inheritance."
Deuteronomy 31
25 he gave this command to the Levites who carried the ark of the
covenant of the LORD :
26 "Take this Book of the Law and place it beside the ark of the covenant of the LORD
your God. There it will remain as a witness against you.
27 For I know how rebellious and stiff-necked you are. If you have been
rebellious against the LORD while I am still alive and with you, how much more will you
rebel after I die!
28 Assemble before me all the elders of your tribes and all your officials, so that I can
speak these words in their hearing and call heaven and earth to testify against them.
29 For I know that after my death you are sure to become utterly corrupt and to turn from
the way I have commanded you. In days to come, disaster will fall upon you because you
will do evil in the sight of the LORD and provoke him to anger by what your hands have
made."
Numbers 16
12 Then Moses summoned Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab. But
they said, "We will not come!
13 Isn't it enough that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and
honey to kill us in the desert? And now you also want to lord it over us?
14 Moreover, you haven't brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey or
given us an inheritance of fields and vineyards. Will you gouge out the eyes of these men?
No, we will not come!"
Numbers 14
10 But the whole assembly talked about stoning them. Then the glory
of the LORD appeared at the Tent of Meeting to all the Israelites.
11 The LORD said to Moses, "How long will these people treat me with
contempt? How long will they refuse to believe in me, in spite of all the miraculous signs
I have performed among them?
12 I will strike them down with a plague and destroy them, but I will make you into a
nation greater and stronger than they."
Numbers 14
22 not one of the men who saw my glory and the miraculous signs I
performed in Egypt and in the desert but who disobeyed me and tested me ten
times-
23 not one of them will ever see the land I promised on oath to their
forefathers. No one who has treated me with contempt will ever see it.
24 But because my servant Caleb has a different spirit and follows me wholeheartedly, I
will bring him into the land he went to, and his descendants will inherit it.
Numbers 16
29 If these men die a natural death and experience only what usually
happens to men, then the LORD has not sent me.
30 But if the LORD brings about something totally new, and the
earth opens its mouth and swallows them, with everything that belongs to them, and they go
down alive into the grave, then you will know that these men have treated the LORD with
contempt."
31 As soon as he finished saying all this, the ground under them split apart
Note: I believe this is where they were transformed into apes and swines according to the Noble Quran. The earth probably never opened up and swallowed them. Or may be it did after they were shown to everyone. Only Allah Almighty Knows about the exact timing.
2- The Noble Quran is clear about the Jews. Some of them are Great people, and most of them are evil ones:
From www.answering-christianity.com/blessed_jesus.htm:
What is the place of the Jews and Christians in Islam?
According to Islam, the righteous people from the Jews and Christians will have their Great Reward from Allah Almighty and will enter Paradise. Let us look at the following Noble Verses:
"And there are, certainly, among the People of the Book [Jews and Christians], those who believe in God, in the revelation to you, and in the revelation to them, bowing in humility to God: They will not sell the Signs of God for a miserable gain! For them is a reward with their Lord, and God is swift in account. (The Noble Quran, 3:199)"
"Not all of them are alike: Of the People of the Book [Jews and Christians] are a portion that stand (For the right): They rehearse the Signs of God all night long, and they prostrate themselves in adoration. They believe in God and the Last Day; they enjoin what is right, and forbid what is wrong; and they hasten (in emulation) in (all) good works: They are in the ranks of the righteous. (The Noble Quran, 3:113-114)"
"Those who believe (in the Quran), and those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Christians and the Sabians,- any who believe in God and the Last Day, and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. (The Noble Quran, 2:62)"
"Nay,-whoever submits His whole self to God and is a doer of good,- He will get his reward with his Lord; on such shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. (The Noble Quran, 2:112)"
"Those who believe, and do deeds of righteousness, and establish regular prayers and regular charity, will have their reward with their Lord: on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. (The Noble Quran, 2:277)"
The Righteous and Beloved Jews in the Noble Quran:
"Of the people of Moses (i.e., the Jews) there is a section who guide and do justice in the light of truth. (The Noble Quran, 7:159)"
The above Noble Verses clearly speak about the righteous Jews and Christians who believe
in Allah Almighty and do righteousness and will have their Great Reward and enter
Paradise.
However, according to Allah Almighty, from among the people of the Book, most of the ones who will gain Paradise are Christians; few of them are Jews. Let us look at the following Noble Verses:
"Strongest among men in enmity to the believers [Muslims] wilt thou find the Jews and Pagans; and nearest among them in love to the believers wilt thou find those who say, 'We are Christians': because amongst these are men devoted to learning and men who have renounced the world, and they are not arrogant. (The Noble Quran, 5:82)"
"The Jews say: 'God's hand is tied up.' Be their hands tied up and be they accursed for the (blasphemy) they utter. Nay, both His hands are widely outstretched: He giveth and spendeth (of His bounty) as He pleaseth. But the revelation that cometh to thee from God increaseth in most of them their obstinate rebellion and blasphemy. Amongst them we have placed enmity and hatred till the Day of Judgment. Every time they kindle the fire of war, God doth extinguish it; but they strive to do mischief on earth. And God loveth not those who do mischief. (The Noble Quran, 5:64)"
"But because of their breach of their covenant, We cursed them, and made their hearts grow hard; they change the words from their (right) places and forget a good part of the message that was sent them, nor wilt thou cease to find them- barring a few - ever bent on (new) deceits: but forgive them, and overlook (their misdeeds): for God loveth those who are kind. (The Noble Quran, 5:13)"
We must also know that according to Islam most of the People of the Book (Jews and Christians) are perverted transgressors, deceiving, in some cases are hypocrites, and most of them are considered Truth rejecters! Let us look at the following Noble Verses:
"Ye [Muslims] are the best of peoples, evolved for mankind, enjoining what is right, forbidding what is wrong, and believing in God. If only the People of the Book [Jews and Christians] had faith, it were best for them: among them are some who have faith, but most of them are perverted transgressors. (The Noble Quran 3:110)"
"And they say: 'None shall enter Paradise unless he be a Jew or a Christian.' Those are their (vain) desires. Say: 'Produce your proof if ye are truthful.' (The Noble Quran, 2:111)"
"A section of the People of the Book [Jews and Christians during Prophet Muhammad's time] say: Believe in the morning what is revealed to the believers [Muslims], but reject it at the end of the day; perchance they may (themselves) turn back (from Islam). (The Noble Quran, 3:72)"
"Never will the Jews or the Christians be satisfied with thee unless thou follow their form of religion. Say: 'The Guidance of God,-that is the (only) Guidance.' Wert thou to follow their desires after the knowledge which hath reached thee, then wouldst thou find neither Protector nor helper against God. (The Noble Quran, 2:120)"
"They say: 'Become Jews or Christians if ye would be guided (To salvation).' Say thou: 'Nay! (I would rather) the Religion of Abraham the True, and he joined not gods with God.' (The Noble Quran, 2:135)"
"They do blaspheme who say: 'Allah is Christ the son of Mary.' But said Christ: 'O Children of Israel! Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord.' Whoever joins other gods with Allah - Allah will forbid him the Garden, and the Fire will be his abode. There will for the wrongdoers be no one to help. (The Holy Quran, 5:72)"
3- After the Jews' betrayal to the Prophet peace be upon him, it became necessary to punish them and cleanse them out of the Holy Lands:

Let us never forget that the Jews fought against the most honourable person and the master of the Prophets and Messengers; our Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam, until the very last moment of his life, despite the fact that they knew for certain that he was the seal of the Prophets which the Torah and the Bible had mentioned. They also knew for sure that Allaah would grant him victory over them and all other disbelievers; but despite all of this, they still fought, betrayed and deceived him. Moreover, they actually plotted to assassinate him sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam and never lowered the banner of war against him.
During the worst and most difficult times of times for the Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam, at the battle of the trench, while there were armies surrounding Madeenah, the Jews plotted to kill the Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam and his companions from within Madeenah. The companions, may Allah be pleased with them, were having a terrible experience during this battle, yet the Jews of Banu Quraydhah (who were one of the Jewish tribes of Madeenah), at this most critical of times, broke the pledge of non-aggression and mutual defence which they given to the Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam.
The Jews intimidated the Muslims, which added to their sense of fear and danger of being in Madeenah. Their families were at great risk and had it not been for the mercy of Allaah, the Jews of Banu Quraydhah would have started another front in the war against the Muslims from within, just when the Muslims were at their most vulnerable.
Allaah rendered the Jews plans as futile as well as those of the confederate tribes who had surrounded Madeenah. He sent down His angels who cast terror into the hearts of the confederates and they withdrew, leaving the Jews of Banu Quraydhah alone with no support.
When the battle was over, the Muslim army and the Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam went back to their homes. He sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam then took off his armour and began to have a wash when the angel Jibreel, peace be upon him, came to him and said: O Messenger of Allaah! You have taken off your armour, but I swear by Allaah that the angels have not yet put down their weapons, go to them (and he pointed in the direction of Banu Quraydhah). Thereupon, the Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam instructed an envoy to command the Muslim army to go to attack Banu Quraydhah by proclaiming: None of you should pray Asr until they are within the territory of Banu Quraydhah. After this, the Messenger of Allaah sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam set out with his army of believers who numbered close to three-thousand mujaahideen.
Banu Quraydhah were surrounded and blockaded for more than twenty nights until they offered to surrender on the condition that Sad Ibn Muaadh, may Allaah be pleased with him, would act as an arbiter in their case. They asked for this because he, may Allaah be pleased with him, was from the tribe of Aws who were their allies before Islaam and therefore they hoped that he would give a biased judgement in their favour. Also, they refused the Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam as a judge because they where afraid of the consequences of his judgement.
So the Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam sent for Sad, who was injured during the battle and therefore had to be carried. The judgement of Sad was that all their men should be beheaded, their properties be seized and distributed among the Muslims and that their women and offspring be held captive. Thereupon, the Messenger of Allaah exclaimed: Allaahu Akbar! O Sad! You have judged by the command of Allaah.
Indeed, this is the judgment of Allaah with regard to the Jews who are the people of betrayal, deception, evil and corruption; the people who exhibited these repugnant characteristics even with the most honourable of the creations of Allaah; His Prophets and Messengers.
