Hi everyone
and welcome to the apostate prophet
As you all know the work that I do and others do as well
is considered quite controversial
Criticizing Islam
Talking about its facts giving you my opinion about it
or just making fun of it
when I say I criticize Islam
some Muslims even say: "No you insult Islam!"
and therefore we can insult you too
on a personal level, you're disgusting shoe cleaner!
To them making fun of their prophet is equal to them calling me names
and wishing for my death
That's quite ironic because I'm a former Muslim according to all major scholars
I deserve the death penalty for leaving Islam and for talking against it
Yet I am the inappropriate one because I make jokes about Islam
as you may know jokes are currently among the top death causes in the world
such great logic can be found in Muhammad's Islamic world
that is not surprisingly also known for their great diplomatic relations
with the rest of the world
and for how peaceful it is and developed,
Okay. Let's just drop it.
By the way, the jokes as death causes might be true in this world.
Just take my word. I'm a prophet
Anyway insulting Islam being a controversial thing is quite ridiculous
Considering that Islam doesn't respect other people's beliefs or disbeliefs at all
and neither did Muhammad
we often see this weird argument that Islam respects other religions
and that Muhammad advocated respecting other religions
Yeah, it usually comes from less knowledgeable Muslims
also called moderate Muslims.
Of course, that's complete nonsense
because the Quran explicitly
insults the religions of Jews, Christians, pre-Islamic Polytheists and all others
it also insults every disbeliever and calls everyone
including Christians and Jews the worst of creation,
But let's focus on something really tough here
and I really want to focus on that alone
because I think it's a very strong argument against Islam
and especially against Islam as a religion of peace
which is a never-ending joke
Mohammed desecration of other people's religions
It is a very well known fact that Mohammed who himself came from pre-islamic arab paganism
Polytheism
fought very fiercely against those pagans after he declared islam
and after he gathered more power
Initially his message sounded more like: This is the true religion
Please believe us, follow us
When he had more power it turned into:
This is the true religion. Please join and follow us
or we will smash you
His deal with the pagans
what the pagans allegedly persecuted him and his followers
after he declared Islam as a new religion.
They persecuted his believers
Forced them out of Mecca, attacked them,
and wanted to capture Muhammad, and put an end to Islam.
Those people could have been heroes
Therefore those pagans are widely condemned in the Quran
Allah was very angry with them and he made that very clear in the Quran
a book that was created before the creation of humankind
therefore Muhammad fought them very harshly
And once he overpowered them, once he conquered Mecca from the Arab polytheists
He went into the Kaaba and destroyed all idols belonging to the Arab polytheists.
He destroyed them all
This is one substantiated and told in several hadith
and biographies of Muhammad
To give you a short recap
The Kaaba was held by the pre-islamic pagans before
but Muhammad claimed that it was his guards
Allah's Holy site,
and therefore made a claim on it and took it from the polytheists
to designate it as the center of Islam
I talked extensively about this in a dedicated episode
'The Truth About The Kaaba'
Now many Muslims hear this, they are educated in childhood
about the story of Muhammad destroying the idols in the Kaaba,
but no one ever questions the morality of this story
because Muslims are taught that the idols are evil and forbidden
A perversion, and Allah wanted the idols destroyed
especially because they were in the Kaaba inside Allah's house
But thinking about it further,
especially in today's time when we talk so much about respecting other people's beliefs
Doesn't it seem a bit?
a bit barbaric and hostile of Muhammad
to destroy the idols, the holy idols of another religious group
no matter what they have done
No matter what their fight was
no matter how much they fought and persecuted each other
We are talking about the sacred of a different religious group
The argument that the Kaaba is Allah's site that it belongs to Islam
and that Muhammad can do whatever he wants with it
It's not even a justification from any non-islamic point of view
If you are a Muslim and you think this way
just imagine another religion after Islam
Emerging and claiming that the Kaaba is their holy site.
Would you have any understanding?
for another religion, another religious group coming and destroying the Kaaba
and building their own thing on top of it
if you think the idols were a man-made perversion and an insult to your God
Would you also have an understanding for anyone else claiming that your religion
your Kaaba, your mosques, your Quran were a perversion
a falsehood, an insult and destroying them?
Yes, it's the same thing
But this point aside,
why did Muhammad even destroy the idols inside the Kaaba?
Couldn't he have moved the idols away to a safe place?
Somewhere else to show that he respects other people's beliefs
and that he doesn't want to destroy their Holies
Why did he have to destroy them?
Because they represent a false belief
would Islam tolerate it as well again?
If another religious group came
and instead of moving things, instead of making things safe for Muslims
Just came and destroyed everything.
Would that be the right thing to do?
Going by Muhammad's logic
That would be the right thing to do
destroying the Kaaba, destroying Quran and mosques would be the right thing to do
Destroying this sweet place in Medina would be the right thing to do
going by any sane and reasonable person's logic
Muhammad, obviously overreacted
he was too aggressive, too angry, too hostile,
and he just destroyed the holiest things belonging to the pagans
and was never able to return them ever again.
They are lost forever
Does that mean Muhammad acted wrongfully?
Something you can't even say as a Muslim.
Does that mean Allah the Almighty?
Acted wrongfully when he inspired Muhammad and made him destroy the idols.
I don't know to me it seems like
We all can be much more reasonable
Much more patient than Allah and Muhammad.
Don't you think?
The desecration of other people's holy artifacts and temples
didn't end with the kaaba
Reportedly. Mohammad also destroyed temples on his way of conquest
He let his followers destroy a very holy a very important a unique idol Al-Uzza
hidden in a very sacred place while some still worshipped the idol
a companion of him destroyed idols and a temple in yemen
That is also called a Kaaba
something every Muslim should probably learn
Muhammad destroyed the idol of Al-Lat in Ta'if
and burnt the temple to the ground
There are many other such reports and we can assume looking at these reports
that Muhammad destroyed more temples and idols in Arabia
that weren't even reported because we know that pre-islamic polytheists
were worshippers of stones and idols
and had their temples everywhere
departing from pagans
Even after Muhammad caliph Omar built an Islamic prayer house
on top of the Temple Mount the holiest site of Judaism
which is of course justified by claiming that Jews betrayed their God
and that Islam was the rightful religion
just turn this around and think of the Islamic outrage
He also turned churches into mosques
other Jewish and Christian temples were turned into Islamic temples in Jerusalem
Pagan sites, churches and synagogues were destroyed to the north of Arabia
in North Africa, in India
We have historic reports of hundreds
Probably thousands of Hindu Jain and Buddhist temples
being destroyed most importantly in Muslim ruler
Aurangzeb time
Zoroastrianism temple in Persia
were either destroyed or turned into mosques
The Hagia Sophia the center of Orthodox Christianity
Was desecrated and turned into a mosque by The Ottomans
and so on
as you can see neither Muhammad nor other Muslims Islam
Respected other people's beliefs and the artifacts the temples of other people
Islamic history beginning with Mohammed is full of the desecration of other people's Holies
Islam punishes what it calls false belief and disbeliever
Therefore Islam is not a religion of peace
Which is a stupid thing to say
Any opposite claim is pure ignorance of well substantiated Islamic sources
historical Islamic sources and objective historical sources
To the fundamentalist Muslim this is not even a problem
If you go and ask the fundamentalists of our time or the revivalists
They will tell you that destroying the idols
and destroying the temples of pagans is the right thing to do
It is a sunnah
an emulation of Muhammad's life and therefore a form of worship
They might cite the hadith, which clearly say that Muhammad destroyed the idols
Cursed the polytheists, said truth has come and falsehood has vanished
Falsehood is bound to vanish
they might cite instructions to destroy images when you come across them
or Muhammad saying that he came to break the idols
so that only Allah would be worshiped
No wonder these are the same sources that groups like ISIS cite
when they go ahead and destroy Thousand-year-old sites on their way
that the world cries about because we are losing history
Well Islam doesn't respect history, Muhammad didn't respect history
if it is not obvious enough, if the idols of pre-islamic Arabs were of great significance to civilizations as well
and Muhammad is the reason we can't even look at those anymore
Just the way many of his followers after him are responsible for the loss of historic buildings
statues and other sites in other parts of the world
when Muslims think of the pre-islamic polytheists
they just think of them as people in the Quran
in the book, in their religion.
When we think about them objectively
They were a civilization that had their own artifacts of historical significance
That are lost forever because of Muhammad, because of Islam
No wonder this is the same religion that comes with the order to fight all people
until everyone testifies that no one but Allah deserves to be worshiped
It is not a religion of mutual respect, peace and tolerance
Therefore I will never respect Islam, with all of this taken into consideration
it is really ridiculous
that my criticism or my ridiculing of Islam is considered controversial or harmful
in any way,
if you are a Muslim and you really care about mutual respect peace and tolerance
Now is the right time to do the right thing.
Turn your back on Islam
