Islam Unveiled Disturbing Questions About the World's Fastest Growing Faith: Library Edition

Summary: The TRUTH is out there
Review: The truth is Islam contnues to grow faster than any religion.
Even after 9/11 the number of converts in the US alone almost
doubled from 40,000/year to 78,000/yr. Now you go tell these
ex-christians, ex-jews and ex whatever that Islam is a violent
and barbaric religion and see what they say. Funny how the
majority of these converts or should I say reverts are women. I
suggest you get this documentary
(http://www.pbs.org/empires/islam/), which can be purchased of
amazon, that was made by non-muslims and see what Islam is and
used to be. Also read the Quran (http://web.umr.edu/~msaumr/Quran/).
It is obvious that these people that like this book have closed
minds and 1 sided opinions and views.

Summary: Not Fair
Review: If one wants to find out a religion, go to the source. Don't believe what others spoon feed you. If you have questions, read the koran, or ask an ismlamic scholar. I'm not going to ask my barber to examine my x-ray cause i don't trust my doctor am I? You get a second opinion from a doctor. And if islam is so horrible, why is it outgrowing christianity at a 10:1 ratio, even with all these evil books written bashing it? Answer me that question.

Summary: Joey's Islam in Jail for the Greater Good
Review: Islam is being defended by Joey who suggests that reading the Quran gives the greatest insights. Well, that ain't so Joey.
And precisely that's exactly what Robert Spencer has done. Your
defense of Islam (which is a barbaric religion) is hilarious.
It does sound like the typical apologist's babble.

Islam, contrary to what you assert, has always been anti-development and anti-science. And when Spencer is skeptical of
the Quran and the life of Mohammed, you (like most unthinking
Muslims) attempt to negate Spencer's views, by using the Quran
as a basis for your argument.

Surely, you need to grow up to post any meaningful reviews on this forum.

Summary: Disturbingly wrong perception of Islam
Review: The author believes what he wants to believe and uses references that serves his purpose. He has a certain view of Islam and for that reason he cannot achieve to be neutral. However, if one sincerely wishes to know what real Islam is all about, there is obviously one source to look at: QURAN. Not what people say, not what people do in the name of Islam, but only Quran. If there are acts, expressions done and said by people that are in contradiction with Quran, then it means they are wrong according to the Quran. In other words, extremely wrong, brutal acts and words of some people, even if they are majority, cannot be considered Islamic and Islam cannot be judged based on that. It wouldn't be fair. You cannot judge a teacher by looking at his student's acts and say that the teacher must be really bad and he must have thought such bad things to him. That could be true, but to find out that, you should first talk to the teacher, and see what he really says and teaches.

Why doesn't anybody do the same thing when it is Islam in question? The world 'Islam' means peace, Allah calls people to peace. Quran summons people to peace and love and says if you kill one innocent person you will be considered to have murdered the entire humanity and if you help survive one person you will be considered to have helped the entire humanity. (Think about the situation of those according to Quran that kill thousands of innocent people in the name of Islam). And jihad means the struggle to be a better person. The other war (Jihad) is unwanted and undesired and is the last resort and Muslims shall be fair even to their enemies. Quran praise those Muslims who give their foods to prisoners of wars when Muslims themselves are hungry, and when those prisoners killed their brothers a few minutes ago. Islam orders peace, compassion and tells Muslims to treat well to everyone, commands them never to force anyone to believe. It orders rich people to help poor.

Except for the last two centuries, Islam has always been the greatest civilization of the world, in science, in art, since its beginning. Muslim scholars' works led the way to Renaissance in Europe. Their works on medicine, mathematics, geography were used as textbooks in universities across Europe for a long time. They were the highest civilization because they adhered to Quran, because Quran praises peace, modernity, art, highest moral values.

Although crusaders slaughtered numberless innocent Muslims and Jews (this is not to say Christianism is bad, because Bible tells Christians to love their enemies, it is because those people were wrong) Muslim commanders never responded the same way, forgave those commanders that killed innocent women and children and never did any harm to anybody. Ottoman Empire accepted Jews fleeing from slaughter in Spain and provided a safe haven for people of various religions and nationalities for 600 years, because they ruled according to Quran. Jerusalem, which is now the place of tears, used to be a place where Jews, Christians and Muslims lived peacefully together under Ottoman rule.
These are facts and can be verified by looking at very basic text books.
ALL INTELLECTUAL PEOPLE OF THE WORLD, I REQUEST ONE THING FROM YOU: DON'T MAKE THE MISTAKE OF JUDGING ISLAM BY LOOKING AT THE ACTS OR WORDS OF SOME PEOPLE. TRY TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IT SAYS BY LOOKING AT ITS SOURCE: THE HOLY QURAN
