In this post, I will show that the Holy Bible assigns women roles in ministry, which neither Muhammad nor his deity permit. This will highlight why Muhammad pales in comparison to the true prophets and apostles such as the blessed Paul, since he is a misogynist who viewed women as property to be owned and subjugated. The Holy Bible According to the sacred writings, God empowers women to prophesy by filling them with the Holy Spirit: “So when they had come together, they

In this post, I will quote from the blessed St. Augustine’s On the Holy Trinity, Book 1, where he cites biblical verses to prove that the Son and the Spirit are not creatures, but are God in the fullest sense. The blessed saint applies 1 John 5:20 to Jesus, and interprets 1 Timothy 6:15-16 as a reference to the blessed and holy Trinity. Augustine will also argue from 1 Corinthians 8:6 that the Father and the Son created all creation, and therefore are not a part of creation.

In this post, I will show that the immediate and overall contexts of Mark 13 point to Jesus being the unique divine Son of God who is distinct from, and superior to, all creation. I will also use this chapter to prove the divinity of the Holy Spirit. I start with the passage that is often used to deny the Deity of Christ: “But of that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone.” Mark 13:32 Our Lord’s words are often interp

In this post, I will be quoting sources deemed authoritative by Salafi Muslims that prohibit engaging in debates, especially ones employing logical argumentation. Some of the references also emphasize the fact that Allah literally possesses hands, eyes, loins/gonads, shin, elbows, speaks, laughs, etc., even though they are supposedly unlike anything in creation. The citations are adapted from the references provided by Ismaili philosopher Dr. Khalil Andani in his debate with

The Quran and the sunna followed by Sunni Muslims present a baffling and confusing picture of Allah. These sources portray the Muslim deity as an exalted man, a glorified humanoid who has a spirit, but is never said to be a spirit. For instance, Allah appears to Muhammad as a man and physically touches Muhammad with his hand: Jami` at-Tirmidhi Chapters on Tafsir Narrated Mu’adh bin Jabal: “One morning, the Messenger of Allah was prevented from coming to us for Sal

According to the oldest extant biography on Muhammad’s life, Muhammad told the Jews that if they couldn’t find a prophecy about him in their Scriptures, they were not obligated to follow him: The apostle wrote to the Jews of Khaybar according to what a freedman of the family of Zayd b. Thabit told me from ‘Ikrima or from Sa‘id b. Jubayr from Ibn ‘Abbas: ‘In the name of God the compassionate the merciful from Muhammad the apostle of God friend and brother of Moses WHO CONFIR

In this post, I am going to cite some Islamic authorities confirming the integrity of one of the first (if not the first) Muslim chroniclers of Muhammad’s life, namely, Ibn Ishaq. The reason I do so is to silence the attempt of certain Muhammadans to brush aside the reports of Ibn Ishaq concerning their prophet, which depict him in a less than favorable light. I begin with the translator of Ibn Ishaq’s biography into English. All bold and capital emphasis is mine: Muhammad, s

The following lengthy excerpt is taken from Harry Austryn Wolfson’s monumental work titled Philosophy of Kalam, published by Harvard University Press in 1976, 244-263. The work can be accessed here: Harry Austryn Wolfson The Philosophy Of The Kalam. Wolfson mentions the two main views held by those Muslims who believed in the uncreatedness of the Quran. One group of Muslims (i.e., Ibn Hanbal, Ashari?) believed that the Quran is the uncreated speech of Allah and that it

The following lengthy excerpt is taken from Harry Austryn Wolfson’s monumental work titled Philosophy of Kalam, published by Harvard University Press in 1976, pp. 291-304. The work can be accessed here: Harry Austryn Wolfson The Philosophy Of The Kalam. All emphasis will be mine. Wolfson shows that early Muslim debates were concerned with whether the Quran is uncreated or created, and whether it was created or originated within Allah’s essence, or outside of his essence.

I arrive at the final segment of my challenge: Allah Kills Women, Infants & Animals! Pt. 2. Muhammad Catapults Women and Children The Islamic reports claim that Muhammad had his jihadis learn to make and employ catapults to destroy the strongholds of his enemies: Ibn Humayd–Salamah–Ibn Ishaq: When the defeated men of Thaqif came to al-Ta’if, they shut the gates of the city and made preparations for war. Neither ‘Urwah b. Mas’ud nor Ghaylan b. Salamah witnessed Hunayn or

I continue from here: Allah Kills Women, Infants & Animals!. In this post, I am going to show that the hadiths that Muslims point to are inconclusive and contradictory. The narrations contradict themselves in that some of them say women and children can be killed, and therefore do not help solve this dilemma. The View of Islamic Narrations and the Sira Literature There are explicit statements in the ahadith that prohibit the killing of women and children: Narrated 'Ab

An Open Challenge to Muslims I openly call out Muslims to refute my claim that there isn’t a single statement in the Quran that forbids the killing of old men, women, children, rabbis or priests. The opposite is true, since a careful reading of the Quran actually shows that Muslims can indeed fight against all these classes of people by using inclusive language in its directives. The Quran on Waging War I will now set out to prove that the Quran permits the killing of n

The Quran claims that Muhammad was sent as a mercy unto mankind: And We have sent you (O Muhammad) not but as a mercy for the ‘Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists). S. 21:107 Hilali-Khan In this post, I will quote the so-called authentic narratives proving the contrary. These ahadith will show how evil and merciless Muhammad was towards those who would dare oppose him. The reports are so explicit and clear that there will be no need for me to comment. MUHAMMAD BRUTALLY

In this post, I will be quoting from Harry Austryn Wolfson’s monumental work titled Philosophy of Kalam, published by Harvard University Press in 1976, pp. 235-244. The work can be accessed here: Harry Austryn Wolfson The Philosophy Of The Kalam. Wolfson shows how the Christian doctrine of Christ as the Logos (Word) of God helped to shape and influence the early Muslim debates on the nature of the Quran. All emphasis will be mine. Chapter III I. The Uncreated Koran

In this post, I will be quoting from Harry Austryn Wolfson’s monumental work titled Philosophy of Kalam, published by Harvard University Press in 1976, pp. 112-143. Muslim scholars have praised Wolfson’s book due to his depth of research on the subject of the rise of Islamic philosophical speculation and the negative reaction it received from the so-called proto-orthodox. The work can be accessed here: Harry Austryn Wolfson The Philosophy Of The Kalam. The author conclusi

The Quran teaches that true submission is when a person perfectly submits to Muhammad’s whims and decisions and goes to him for forgiveness of sins: Say, (O Muhammad, to mankind): If ye love Allah, follow me; Allah will love you and forgive you your sins. Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. Say: Obey Allah AND the messenger. But if they turn away, lo! Allah loveth not the disbelievers (in His guidance). S. 3:31-32 Pickthall We sent no messenger save that he should be obeyed by

The following is taken from Iblees Was Not One of the Angels - Islam Question & Answer. Question 6485 My friend told me that Iblees (shaytan) used to be an angel. My wife says that this is not true. Could you please give me some information? Answer Iblees was definitely not one of the angels. This is indicated by three things: the clear texts of the Quran, the physical attributes of Iblees and the attitude of Iblees. 1- With regard to the clear statements of the Quran, Alla

According to the Holy Bible, God chose to place his divine presence in a real, unique manner within the tabernacle/temple: “Now it happened that when the priests came out of the holy place, the cloud filled the house of Yahweh, so that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud, for the glory of Yahweh filled the house of Yahweh. Then Solomon said, ‘Yahweh has said that He would dwell in the cloud of dense gloom. I have surely built You a lofty house, A pl

The Quran presents Muhammad’s god as a being who learns over time by placing people in particular situations to learn what they will do: If a wound has afflicted you (at Ohud), a wound like it has also afflicted the (unbelieving) people; and We bring these days to men by turns, and that Allah MAY KNOW those who believe and take witnesses from among you; and Allah does not love the unjust. And that He may purge those who believe and deprive the unbelievers of blessings. Do y

Canon 2 of the Council Trullo bound believers to affirm the 85 Apostolic canons: CHURCH FATHERS: Council in Trullo (A.D. 692) Canon 2 It has also seemed good to this holy Council, that the eighty-five canons, received and ratified by the holy and blessed Fathers before us, and also handed down to us in the name of the holy and glorious Apostles should from this time forth remain firm and unshaken for the cure of souls and the healing of disorders. And in these canons we a
