Hello everyone and welcome this is the apostate prophet
We hear very often especially today in a 21st century
that Islam is totally misunderstood
People who criticize Islam misunderstand Islam
fundamentalist Muslims misunderstand Islam ISIS misunderstands Islam
Mohammed probably misunderstood Islam
The caliphate misunderstood Islam The Quran misunderstood Islam
Allah misunderstood Islam
Islam has nothing to do with Islam.
We hear that Islam is all about peace, that it means peace
It's just ridiculous.
I want to talk about the word Islam and what it stands for
But before that it's also quite interesting to look at how the word Islam came into existence
It's not like Christianity or Judaism or Hinduism for that matter.
The Bible did not name Judaism
It didn't say: "From here on we shall call this Judaism."
and you are all Judas --tz-- no
Jesus didn't say what we are doing here is Christianity
and you are all called Christians, bros
Christianity is only called this way because the followers of Jesus, The Christ
Were called Christians
and that's how collectively this belief has been named Christianity
but Islam calls itself Islam directly in the Quran
In the scripture, it gives itself just a name Islam
instead of just calling itself "The Believers of God" or "The True Belief"
So the Almighty, Allah above designed a name for his faction on earth for his people
Islam, which of course means
peace
Just kidding, Islam means "Submission." It does not mean peace
If you look at any proper source of scholars of Islam or the Arabic language
We will quickly learn that the name Islam means "submission".
It comes from "submission"
Here you have a graph to make it easier
Islam comes from the root word "Silm"
"Salam" is a variety of the root word that Islam is derived from
Salam means peace
As you can see there is no direct relation between the world Salam and Islam
it's like too far cousins
And two far cousins doesn't mean the two cousins can take credit for the qualities of the other
If this guy is called Submission. He can't say: "Oh, I'm actually a very peaceful person
because my cousin is named Salam. Peace."
This is like creating a religion or a movement and calling it Dictatorship
and when being questioned, saying that the movement actually supports dialogue
Democracy
because the word dictator could also mean someone who speaks
There is nothing wrong with a dictatorship.
It's all about peace You are just misunderstanding us
Of course, you could sell this to some liberal Arab who has no idea about English
But the regular English speaker will immediately know that you are full of crap
We could take endless sources on this
but to a fair person who is interested in the objective truth
rather than in burying facts with emotionally-driven talks
and painting the world pink and baby blue
A quick research of 10 minutes should be enough
Even if you do something very simple
Google "Islam etymology"
here is the first thing that Google helps you with
It tells you directly that the name Islam is derived from the word "islām"
which itself means "submission" which comes from the word "aslama" which means "to submit"
Even today the word "aslama" (to submit)
can be used to refer to someone becoming a Muslim or being devoted
submissive to Allah
If we look at the Quran, we can see that the word "Muslim" which means "one who submits"
is used to refer to someone who submits
The words are related to Islam are all used in relation to submission
to surrendering and submitting
To give you two examples
the Quran calls Abraham a Muslim one who submitted to Allah
not a Muslim like a follower of Muhammad and the Quran
In a quite popular verse. It calls followers of Allah
Muslims
which has been forever translated as "those who submit"
I will link you a page
which gives you all the varieties of the root word submission in the Quran
and you can directly see that the word refers always to Submission
Piece on the other hand is always derived from Salam or Salama
It is very clear Islam means submission, even if it meant "peace"
Which it doesn't
It is not the piece that you think it is
The piece mentioned in Islam here and there in the world Salam
Stands for peace as in tranquility not beautiful world peace
with doves flying around everywhere
It stands for well-being or health
Muslims have the common greeting as-salāmu 'alaykum, for example
Which translates to peace be upon you
This is the most common Muslim greeting
and is even used in variables in the non-arabic speaking Muslim world
See how Arab culture imposes itself on others through Islam
The greeting salāmu 'alaykum is actually a good point to stand on
Many muslims use this to imply that islam wants Peace
Because people greet each other with peace
Even many fundamentalist muslims use this to say that Islam cares about peace
Ironically, these are also the same people who usually demonize jews.
If you are familiar with jews. You probably know how jews greet each other
Shalom aleichem
See the similarity to "Salamu alaykom."
Yeah, that's because both of them are Semitic languages
The greetings are cognates. They share the same root
And you can win a car today by guessing which one came first
Someone who responds to "Shalom Aleichem" says "Aleichem Shalom" in Hebrew
Like "Alaykum Salam" in Arabic
like peace be upon you,
no
you! no
You
Many also say simply Shalom in Hebrew like Salam in Arabic
On the Sabbath for example
Jews say "Shabbat Shalom" which stands for peace on Sabbath
Peace meaning "be well on the Sabbath"
the day of resting
not go out into the world and make peace with everyone
because peace is beautiful.
Do you see the doves?
Of course this means that Judaism is a total religion of peace
that wants to spread peace and pink hearts
in the world everywhere. Right?
By the way the greeting "Salam alaykum" (peace be upon you) was allegedly introduced by Mohammed
who looked up to Jews and Christians and appropriated so much of them
before he started fighting and demonizing them
and calling them the worst of creation
You can only guess where he got this idea from
Considering that he lived in Medina a city full of Jews
that he also massacred and expelled afterward
All the Jews fault of course
Funnily enough
Centuries ago the majority of Muslims didn't assert
that Islam wants peace in the world and wants to coexist with everyone in the world
because the name Islam somehow means peace
That's an assertion that has become popular in the Muslim world only very recently.
It's not even very popular in the Muslim world
It's much more popular among Muslims who are close to the Western world
or who live in the West
Organizations like the Organization of Islamic Cooperation initiated such talks
Such bullshit?
Nonsensical claims
Before the last century Islam was known for wreaking havoc in the world
and trying to conquer everything it came across
To spread peace of course
You can simply look at what a very well-known Golden Age scholar
An Islamic scholar of Islam and a historian said about this
Ibn Khaldun said in the Muslim community
The holy war is a religious duty because of the universalism of the Muslim mission
and the obligation to convert everybody to Islam
either by persuasion or by force
Islam is under obligation to gain power over other nations
Ibn Khaldun is today revered as one of the forerunners of sociology
This is not some random desert dude called Ahmed
or we could simply have a look at Islamic history
I would suggest an objective animated map of Islam
It will tell you everything you need to know about how brutally aggressive the Islamic empires were
so much that they triggered the biggest defense forces in history like the Crusades and
And there you have it
The next time someone tells you that Islam is a religion of peace
That Islam is peace
That Islam means peace or that Allah loves peace
You can crush them with all this information
Do it really with information though
Don't crush them the way Islam tried to crush everyone for 1400 years.
Otherwise, you might end up being miserable,
disliked, isolated
mocked by people or the rest of the world.
