Hi everyone and welcome, this is the Apostate Prophet,
Recently, I have a weird issue with Islam.
Do you ever see Muslim preachers and apologists and proselytizers talk about Islam...
and whenever they mention Mohammed they fall into this trance and speak words that non-Arabic
speakers and non-Muslims don’t understand anyway?
Yeah, it’s exhausting.
It always feels like a weird comical scene to me,
You can’t even trust and have a normal conversation with someone who keeps saying whenever Mohammed
is mentioned.
Can you imagine talking politics today, and whenever... Trump is mentioned, people suddenly
start talking this weird way.
It would probably be bearable, but creepy, if it was only once, but every time he is
mentioned?
Yes, that really happens in rooms where people preach or teach or just talk about Mohammed.
You know what the funniest thing is?
Muslims don’t even say this because they love Mohammed so much and feel the need to
say it.
They say it because the Quran and the hadiths tell them to do that.
Let me show you.
So, Allah, almighty Allah who loves Mohammed so much, instructs all believers, theoretically
all humans to ask Allah to grant blessings and peace upon Mohammed.
Just to understand it better: Just imagine, I am Allah.
Just imagine it.
I know it’s weird but just imagine.
Please, come on.
For once.
And I created all humans and chose Mohammed as my favorite human, whom I created, too.
I’m also almighty, and good.
I take Mohammed whom I love so much and tell you all to ask me again to grant him peace
and blessings upon Mohammed.
Why?
When I was a Muslim, I thought it’s just to strengthen my faith and to love Mohammed
and to love Allah more.
And to recognize the superiority of Allah while loving Mohammed.
Being loyal to Mohammed and submitting completely to Allah.
It’s so much deeper than you first think.
But later I realized that Islamic theology is not that intelligent.
Neither was Mohammed.
In fact, Mohammed asked Muslims repeatedly to ask Allah to grant him peace and blessings.
He even apparently chastises people who don’t say the phrase.
Who don’t ask Allah to grant peace and blessings upon him.
Mohammed taught his followers how to say these phrases, and the most common one that is said
by Muslims is sallalahu alayhi wasallam which means
An alternative used by Muslims is alayhi s-salam which means peace be upon him.
In English conversations, you might have seen that one very often.
According to reports, Mohammed was very happy and had a bright smile on his face one day,
and when people asked him why, he told them that an angel appeared to him, and brought
him a message from Allah.
Has a smile on his face, is so happy and tells
you something like that...
Poor guy.
But he also said something quite bad to that:
Well, that’s why whenever Muslims hear the
name of Mohammed spoken, you see them do awkward things like putting their hands on their heart
and whisper or just give you a loud reaction.
This should’ve been a war strategy for the Crusaders.
Whenever Muslims attack, just mention the name of Mohammed repeatedly and watch the
Muslims be be totally distracted and whispering and confused, unable to fight.
As said, Islamic theology is not that smart.
I’m saying this because this saying this phrase is not only supposed to raise your
rank in heaven.
Yeah, Muslims actually believe you have ranks... in heaven... but also that Mohammed’s rank
increases in heaven whenever you greet him this way.
That’s why the practice is an obligation for everyone to say.
And repeating it to yourself when it’s not obligatory brings you plus points in heaven.
Which makes little sense.
Allah created everyone, Allah created Mohammed, Mohammed is Allah’s favorite human, and
he is definitely with him in heaven, but your prayers determine his rank before Allah?
Come on.
I mean, I kind of understanding the honorifics used when Allah is mentioned, which Muslims
also do, but Mohammed?
And then so organized?
If you go online and search for this topic, you will even find major Islamic sites telling
you exactly when and how to honor Mohammed and what happens if you don’t do it.
God forbid.
This is only one of many practices in Islam that require you to do very specific things,
to say very specific phrases, that interrupt daily actions and are contrary to common sense
and modern life.
Islam basically controls every moment of you, and gives regulations for every moment in
your life.
It gives you precise directions on what to do and how to do it.
And praising Mohammed senselessly is just one of those things.
Thinking back of me practicing these things.
Back then I thought it was beautiful, today I think of it as similar to wiping your tires
whenever you leave or enter the car, and saying “be clean, be clean, be clean”.
Even when you’re totally in a hurry because you need to get home immediately, your wife
is waiting for you, has an emergency, but you’re just talking to your tires instead
and wiping them.
What’s even funnier is that Mohammed directly prescribed the ways you should be pray for
him, and the phrases he demonstrated are by no means short.
There are different versions that he allegedly mentioned.
Let me give you one example:

you to do at the end of every YouTube video.

Stay away from Islam.
