Hi everyone and welcome, this is the Apostate Prophet
As you might have seen, we have just arrived at the 50k subscriber milestone.
Thank you so much for that.
To honor that and to summarize the purpose of this channel, I want to make clear, with
10 morally and logically problematic points, why Islam shouldn’t be accepted as an innocent
religion and why no one should believe in Islam.
While doing this, I want to point out that it is Islam itself that I have a problem with
and how it affects people that believe in it.
I have no interest or desire in condemning and excluding people although I can’t bother
fighting such a misconception either.
It’s all very simple, let’s begin.
Intolerance and Supremacy Islam could also be defined as the most intolerant
religion, especially in our time.
In the fundamental scripture of Islam, the Quran and the hadith, there are multiple intolerant
statements and instructions concerning nonbelievers.
Sometimes those are generalized, sometimes they are directly named, like Jews, Christians,
polytheists or Zoroastrians.
Calling Islam peaceful or tolerant is a very new thing.
500 years ago, adherents of Islam didn’t care about such apologetics, they cared about
spreading and enforcing Islam by the sword, wherever possible.
To give a few examples: The 9th chapter of the Quran is the most aggressive one, and
therein the first verses order to fight and besiege the polytheists wherever they are
found unless they leave, have a contract with you or become Muslims.
In verse 29, it is ordered to fight all nonbelievers until they are defeated and forced to pay
protection-money.
Allah appears like a mafia boss.
In the next verse, Jews and Christians are directly named, insulted, and condemned simply
for having different beliefs.
And a few Verses later, the Quran’s author, supposedly Allah, also says that Mohammed’s
mission is to place Islam above everything else.
Mohammed also clarifies that in a narration for all of us: Allah's Apostle said, "I have
been ordered to fight the people till they say: 'None has the right to be worshipped
but Allah.'
Islam – A Political System From Above A common mistake that people make when they
talk about Islam is to perceive it as a personal religion that is between God and the Believer.
That’s wrong.
Unlike Christianity and Judaism, where the scripture is inspired by God and written by
people, in Islam, the Quran is considered the direct, unchanged, verbatim word of Allah
and is seen as perfect, clear and decisive.
And unlike Christianity, where people were only given teachings and missionaries spread
the religion, was it Mohammed himself who created a state and designated Islam as the
state religion.
Mohammed participated in numerous wars and battles that had one purpose: Spread Islam
either peacefully, and if that doesn’t work, violently.
Islam spread in its beginnings almost entirely militarily.
Mohammed created an empire which continued through caliphs, successors of Mohammed, that
enforced the sharia on other groups.
Unlike in other religions, Islam has a system that is still followed by states and whose
guidelines are very clear and unquestionable.
There are clear rules for men, women, children, believers, nonbelievers, slaves, etc. that
reach from deciding which hand to use to crucifying and mutilating people.
When groups like ISIS want to create Islamic States, they appeal to this system.
They don’t invent something that didn’t exist.
And in this system, loyalty is enforced, war is promoted, and the opppression of others
ordered.
Rejection of Modernity and Change As said, the Quran is considered the direct,
unchanged word of the almighty God, Allah.
The Quran also claims to be complete and an instruction for all humankind until the day
of judgement.
The Quran is believed to be Allah’s plan and to have existed before creation.
It’s also believed that the Quran in its current form is always in paradise and is
therefore not subject to any change.
Therefore, there is no change or reform possible in Islam.
In Christianity and Judaism, the religion can be adapted to the time by different procedures
and is therefore only conflicting with the modernity in very conservative or reactionary
circles.
In Islam, such a mechanism is not possible since the Quran strictly rejects any kind
of change, innovation or reform.
Whoever rejects only one single rule is a nonbeliever and is dealt with death.
Additionally, Muslims are given clear instructions for basic daily life and any commonality with
other religious groups is directly condemned.
Islam is naturally xenophobic and reactinary.
Misogyny There weren’t many ideologies that valued
women in the past.
Islam was born in the 7th century in Arabia.
Neither the time not the place, especially the place, weren’t very friendly with women.
But as said, Islam is seen as perfect and eternal, and therefore misogyny is upheld
as well.
The Quran allows men to marry four women, to beat women, to enslave women and
to have sex with them, says that men are above women, that women should stay home, and also
makes clear, that women’s voice is half of that of a man, and that voice is only accepted
if no men are present, and that women inherit less than men do.
In narrations, Mohammed also says that no one should be questioned about why they beat
their wives, that women are stupid, that they are ungrateful, corrupt, dangerous.
And, of course, the Quran and Mohammed order to cover women up.
So, the assertion, „I wear it because I want to” is baseless and wrong.
Surprise!
Punishing Apostates Islam is the only major religion that orders
very clearly, to kill those who leave the religion.
Some Muslims insist that there is no compulsion in religion.
That’s partially true.
No one can be individually forced to accept Islam, but Islam orders to fight nonbelievers
nevertheless and to subjugate them.
Very funny, right?
But Mohammed also orders very clearly, to kill apostates.
That was practiced in history and this law is to this day existent and applicable in
quite a few countries.
In some parts of our world, it’s not 2018 yet.
Child Marriage A problem that many already know is child
marriage in Islam.
Islam as a religion that still wants to be supreme in 2050, allows the marriage of children,
even before they menstruate.
Many moderate Muslims might tell you that that is a misunderstanding, but fundamentalist
Muslims are usually honest with this one.
In Islamic scripture, there is no age restriction for marriages and the Quran clearly gives
instructions about wives who didn’t have their period yet.
Moreover, there is a bigger problem.
Mohammed, the father of Islam, is a perfect example for mankind in Islam.
Mohammed married his second favorite wife Aisha when she was only 6 years old.
At least, Mohammed was merciful enough to wait 3 years and consummated the marriage
by having sex with her when she was nine.
This is no misunderstanding and is clearly reported in multiple completely authentic
narrations.
Killing of Homosexuals In the 21st century, we discover and recognize
our individual rights further, at least in the free world, and begin to tolerate homosexuals
and to allow same-sex marriages.
Islam is, of course, strictly against any of that.
It’s therefore absurd that LGBT-activists get busy fighting Islamophobia and help paint
the picture of a lovely Islam.
Here are two things I want to tell such activists: Islam orders the death penalty for homosexuality
Followers of Islam are today by far the most homophobic religious group in the world
No Freedom of Expression I know, this is a very big surprise, but Islam
is very strict when it comes to opinions and speech.
In Islamic sources, it is clear that whoever opposes or mocks Islam is to be punished and
that if a Muslim makes negative statements about Islam, he is treated as an apostate
and killed.
We also have multiple Islamic sources where individuals are killed, upon Mohammed’s
orders, requests or his approval, for speaking negatively about Mohammed, Allah, or Islam.
Is someone leaves Islam, he can still come back within a specific time frame and be forgiven.
If that person verbally or otherwise opposed Islam after his apostasy, he is killed even
if he repents.
Islam deals very heavily with mockery and criticism, and therefore, it is no coincidence
that the Islamic world is still by far the worst in terms of free speech.
Islam for Mohammed In Islam, it is believed that the Quran is
the law and authority over the world and humankind and that it is the word of the almighty God,
but the Quran contains quite weird verses that have more to do with Mohammed and his
private life than with the salvation of humans.
Mohammed is, for example, in a hard situation about his dozen wives that neither concern
Islam nor humankind, and suddenly, Allah sends a Quran verse that specifically deals with
it, for Mohammed.
Just in time.
Some examples are his marriage to his cousin Zaynab, which was ordered in the Quran, a
Quran verse dealing with Mohammed’s private matter with his child wife Aisha where Allah
steps in and solves the problem, or Allah making a Quran verse because people sit too
long in Mohammed’s house, or Allah threatening Mohammed’s wives with divorce, in the Quran,
the ultimate guide for humankind...
The question is, how is the Quran a book that is supposed to guide humans until the end
of time and further when it deals so much with Mohammed’s private issues that concern
no one else?
The Imitation and Veneration of Mohammed And lastly, after everything we went through,
the veneration of Mohammed.
I want to take Christianity as a known religion as an example again.
You have Jesus, God, and learn to follow his teaching in order to reach salvation.
The Bible teaches moral matters and the history of the prophets and also other topics like
God, heaven, earth, hell, community, etc.
In Islam, it’s different.
Mohammed is described as the perfect human who sets an example for all humankind.
In Islam, the Sunnah is the primary source together with the Quran.
The sunnah is the tradition, the customs, the personality, and the life of Mohammed,
and the Sunnah is based on hadiths, narrations about the Prophet Mohammed.
These narrations bring some good things, sure, but they also bring a lot of atrocities, like
killing, torture, exclusion of others, or just mindless restrictions like that you shouldn’t
use your left hand for eating, or lay on your stomach, or don’t pee while standing.
Islam takes your personality away, suppresses it and replaces it with laughable instructions
on how to use the toilet or what to say in which moment.
But it’s not only ridiculous, it is also extremely dangerous.
Muslims try to imitate Mohammed because Islam teaches that.
Let’s take two examples of Mohammed’s life: 1.
Child marriage 2.
Incest Mohammed practiced child marriage, as said,
suggested it, and helped others to practice it as well.
If child marriage is now a big problem in the Islamic World, and it is, then that is
so because Islam, and therefore religious Muslims, consider it a great thing to live
like Mohammed did.
There are numerous cases where such scandals are uncovered but then defended and excused
by religious authority, by people who covered up to begin with, because Islam approves of
it.
In terms of incest, resulting from first cousin marriages, we can simply look at statistics
and see that such marriages are regular in the Islamic World.
In other parts of the world, the rates are below 2% while in the Islamic world, we see
70%, 50%, 30% and so on.
This is a result of Islamic religiosity and customs and has nothing to do with just cultural
differences.
And we could take numerous such examples, like fighting the unbelievers, death by torture,
the killing of apostates and blasphemers, four wives, marital rape, wife-beating, Islamic
States, and so on.
As you can see, Islam is much different from other religions that we still have.
The Islamic World is the way it is because of religion, not because of other factors.
And unfortunately, many Muslims suffer because they have to follow their religion word for
word and are scared to death to question their religion, since Islamic indoctrination is
stronger than anything else, and Mohammed said that you should seek refuge and immediately
stop your thoughts since every kind of questioning of your religion is inspired by Satan who
wants to lead you to hell and eternal torture.
Moreover, you still go to hell in Islam temporarily even if you are a Muslim, and Muslims are
terrified of the thought.
Islam is not a simple religion where everything is calm, tolerance is pushed, and people just
want to live in peace.
Islam is like spending your live in a dystopian future where a system inside of you watches
your every thought and every step.
That system does not only torture you, it also tortures everything that gets close to
it, and once it is significantly present in a land, it won’t leave unaffected, unrelated
people alone either.
It is a dangerous ideology, not even a religion.
It is an oppressive system and I can’t even find enough words to express that.
No one should believe in it, no one should condone it, no one should downplay it, and
no one should invite it.
Most importantly, no one should treat it like just another harmless religion.
It is not.
And believe me, you don‘t want to deal with it.
I hope this opens your eyes a bit.
Thanks for watching! And don't forget:
Stay away from Islam!
