Pakistani Islamic scholar Maulana Zahidur Rashidi is apparently unimpressed with the cynical and deceptive pieces that appear regularly in the Western media, assuring us that the Qur’an is benign, that it teaches only defensive jihad, that the U.S. Constitution is Sharia-compliant, and that the Islamic State is not Islamic.
