Answering Robert Spencer Religion of Peace Islam
Robert Spencer book Religion of Peace about Islam? should not go without a critical review. It is important to sort what problems he has in his presentation. His theme work is that Al-Quraan ask the believers to be merciful between themselves and ruthless to non-believers. One should understand that Al-Quraan -AL-Koran gives such command in Arabic. One needs to understand the context of such Koranic verse. What Koran tell the Moslems to be merciful among each other and be firm and strong with the un-believers or adversary. This Koranic verse is calling on Moslem to be again strong that is for the purpose that this being strong and firm in dealing with the non-believers will not attempt them to attack the Moslems and commit an aggression. However, Robert Spencer distort the Koranic verse and use the word ruthless. That is the Moslems should be ruthless to the non-believers. This is in mild a fabrication of Robert Spencer book. Al-Quraan promotes justice and never permit injustice on any one human being whether Believer or un-believer. Does Robert Spencer use the word "ruthless" maliciously?
Another theme of Robert Spencer is that Al-Koraan calls for beating women. No where in Koraan that tells Moslems to beat their wives. Go make me a cup of tee. No you did not I will beat you up. No where such thing is allowed. I will take the stick and I will beat you up. Just mention in Koraan is when the wife is jeopardizing the marriage by being of reckless behaviour or "Noshooz". So in order to save the marriage and family which is important constituent of Islam, man can bat the wife gently to get back to her senses and stop the behaviour that will lead to divorce. A wild example if the wife is all day out of the house and leaving children alone without care and declines to tell her husband what she was doing. Such behaviour will lead definitely to divorce and break of the family. So light batting of the wife will send a clear message for the wife about the state of marriage and a step before an impending divorce. So Robert Spencer claiming that Islam calls for beating sends wrong signal and fabrication if mentioned as such without a context.
Robert Spencer uses the word Jihadists, Jihadists, Jihadists ... as a cuss word and as a drum beat to generate hysteria.
Robert Spencer flaunts that Christian Europe had advanced but Moslems did not. The fact is that Europe population is ten times more than Moslems. Europe is a whole continent full of riches and resources in contrasts the Moslems lives in a narrow stretch in North Africa where it is mostly desert and in land in greater Syria, Iraq and Anatolia that dwarfs in comparison. Obviously, the prospects of Christianity in Europe is much greater than Moslems who live in impoverished poor lands.
Robert Spencer claims that Islam does not respect the idea that are laws of nature. He claims that Al-Koran says that God Allah can do what he wants. He also go to his low level of attack by selecting one moslem scholar writing to reflect on all Islam. A common and recurrent dirty trick from his part. Did not Jesus calmed the storm by just one command? Was he following the law of nature. Did not Koran asked Moslems how the sun and moon moves in orbits? Was Jesus concerned with laws of nature?
