Muslim Council of Britain condemns reporting of jihadis screaming ‘Allahu akbar’ for ‘implying’ Islamic motive
“The Muslim Council of Britain’s Centre for Media Monitoring (CfMM) has claimed that British media has placed a ‘disproportionate focus’ on Islamic terrorist attacks and that headlines containing the Jihadi war-cry ‘Allahu Akbar’ are misleading as they claim it falsely links terrorism with the Islamic faith.” The CfMM also seemed to suggest that reporting about […]
Germany: Muslim migrant who supposedly suffered serious brain injury when arrested appears in video unhurt
According to a hadith, Muhammad said, “War is deceit.” (Bukhari 4.52.268). And the infidels are so easily fooled, indeed, so eager to be fooled. The victim status that Ali M. is claiming is exactly the same status that numerous Leftists in Germany, including but by no means limited to Samy Charchira, want very much to […]
California: Muslim Brotherhood-linked group runs billboards aggravating racial tensions
The Islamic Circle of North America is here perpetuating the destructive and incendiary myth that racist killings by police are a common phenomenon in the U.S. These billboards will only sow more strife. The Islamic Circle of North America: “ICNA has close ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, the ideological forebear of all radical Islamic movements […]
Islam is Not a Peaceful Religion: A Rebuttal of Mehdi Hasan (Part 2)
We continue at a point where Mehdi Hasan discusses campaigning against Islamic terrorism in the name of Islam, which is irrelevant if such campaigning goes against Islamic teaching. Mehdi claims that Sharia is entirely subjective but if something goes against the express will of Allah, which Mehdi Hasan already has many times in this […]
Islam is Not a Peaceful Religion: A Rebuttal of Mehdi Hasan (Part 1)
The most popular defence of Islam that can be seen on YouTube today is by Mehdi Hasan in his Oxford Union debate on the topic ‘Is Islam a peaceful religion?’ Mehdi Hasan is one of the most arrogant Islamic apologists seen today, but don’t expect to see anything actually linked to Islam (by Mehdi’s own […]
What is the Qur’an and what does it teach? A rebuttal of Dr. Garry Wills
With 1.2 million views on YouTube, the video ‘What is the Qur’an: A Christian Reads the Qur’an’ is easily the most viewed video from the Emir-Stein Center, yet it is also the shortest, at only 3 minutes and 51 seconds. While I expected an impartial introductory video with no need for deceit, this was […]
The Story of Emil Abdelkader and its Relevance to Islam: A Rebuttal of John Kiser
The story of Emil Abdelkader, a 19th-century Algerian military leader who saved the Christians of Damascus from a massacre in 1860, is an outlier among the stories of Islamic leaders, although it teaches us a great lesson. This lesson, however, is not what the Emir-Stein Center wants it to be. John Kiser, co-founder of the […]
Aisha, Muhammad’s Child Bride: A Rebuttal of Lesley Hazleton
‘Quick-witted’, ‘tart tongued’, ‘daring’, ‘headstrong’ and ‘assertive’ are not five phrases I would immediately attribute to Aisha when I hear them. What springs to mind is rather ‘prepubescent child-bride’; the authority for this assertion consists of multiple Islamic sources rather than speculative, cringeworthy platitudes. This is the issue we face when dissecting one of […]
A Rebuttal of William F. Vendley on Why Muslims Condemn Terrorism
[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6q6tSq_YdQI] In a video from the 5th of July this year, Catholic theologian and Emir-Stein Center representative William F. Vendley presents a case for why Muslims do condemn [Islamic] terrorism, but there are many issues with the picture presented here by Vendley. One of Vendley’s claims in this video is that peaceful Muslims condemning […]
