Here is a Muslim cleric calling for attacks on Americans who are going about their business in tourist resorts, universities, coffee shops, restaurants, airplanes, ships, shops, and companies. Where did he get the idea that Islam would possibly sanction such a thing? As a Muslim cleric, how did he miss the Religion of Peace’s messages […]
Sudan: Christian woman facing execution for leaving Islam appeals sentence
Muhammad said: “Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him” (Bukhari 9.84.57). The death penalty for apostasy is part of Islamic law according to all the schools of Islamic jurisprudence. Yet Muslim spokesmen such as Harris Zafar, Mustafa Akyol, Salam al-Marayati, M. Cherif Bassiouni, and Ali Eteraz (among many others) have assured us that Islam […]
“Execute her,” says brother of Sudanese convert from Islam to Christianity
“Execute her”? One would almost think that Islam had a death penalty for apostasy. And in fact, it does. Muhammad commanded: “Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him” (Bukhari 9.84.57), and the alleged “numerous verses in the Koran” that “guarantee freedom of belief” have not prevented all the sects of Islam and all the […]
Sudan: Woman condemned to death for leaving Islam gives birth in jail
She has been convicted of adultery because she is considered a Muslim, and Muslim women are forbidden to marry non-Muslim men. She has likewise been condemned to death for apostasy because she declares herself a Christian even though her father was a Muslim. If her father was a Muslim, then she is, too, according to […]
Islam: ‘Appalling and Abhorrent’ in the Eyes of a Blind World?
A few days ago in Sudan, an eight-month pregnant wife and mother was sentenced to death by hanging for refusing to renounce Christ and embrace Islam.

US lawmakers pressure Obama to grant asylum to Christian Sudanese mom sentenced to death for leaving Islam
Why aren’t all the Muslim spokesmen in the West, who claim that Islam has no death penalty for apostasy, such as Harris Zafar, Mustafa Akyol, Salam al-Marayati, M. Cherif Bassiouni, and Ali Eteraz (among many others), jetting to Khartoum now to explain to Sudanese authorities that they are misunderstanders of Islam and must release Meriam […]
Sharia Sudan: Pregnant Christian convicted of apostasy, adultery
Islamic apologists in the West routinely claim that Islam has no death penalty for apostasy. Unfortunately, misunderstanders of Islam abound in large numbers, and for some reason they cannot shake the notion that Islam does mandate death for those who are considered to have left the faith. Why do they persist in this misunderstanding? Maybe […]
Sharia Sudan: Pregnant woman faces death for leaving Islam, marrying Christian
“And should Ibrahim be convicted of both apostasy and adultery, her whipping and execution will be administered right after giving birth to her second child.” This is in accord with a hadith: ‘Abdullah b. Buraida reported on the authority of his father that Ma’iz b. Malik al-Aslami came to Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon […]
Sudanese Muslim cleric: “The shedding of the blood of infidels is for the sake of purification and security”
Al-Jazouli quotes the Qur’an: “Fight them until there is no more strife and Allah’s religion prevails” (8:39). He says that shedding the blood of Infidels in jihad is a way to prevent strife and create order. This is in line with the classic Islamic supremacist idea that once Sharia prevails, peace will reign and strife […]
Sudanese authorities demolish church building in “Islamization” campaign
“The organization also reported that systematic targeting of Nuba and other ethnic groups suggests the resurgence of an official policy of ‘Islamization and Arabization.’” Yet remember: opposing “Islamization” is racist, bigoted and hateful. A church was demolished? Pah! Who cares? It was in a “Muslim area”! What are you, some kind of Islamophobe? “Sudanese Authorities […]
