After Denise Spell­berg, asso­ciate pro­fes­sor of his­to­ry and Mid­dle East­ern stud­ies at the Uni­ver­si­ty of Texas, assessed the man­u­script as ​“a very ugly, stu­pid, piece of work” which turned sacred his­to­ry into soft-core pornog­ra­phy and warned that pub­li­ca­tion could pro­voke vio­lence, Bal­lan­tine Books, a divi­sion of Ran­dom House, con­sult­ed with secu­ri­ty experts and then nego­ti­at­ed an agree­ment with Jones to ter­mi­nate their $100,000 two-book contract.

So is it pos­si­ble for the Most Wise to enable a liar to be vic­to­ri­ous, assist him, aid him against his oppo­nents and make the end result in his favour and his fol­low­ers, although this liar con­tin­u­ous­ly invent lies and forg­eries against God claim­ing that He sent him

It has become a habit for some to pub­lish respons­es to any paper deal­ing with the issue of Islam, its truth­ful­ness and the false­hood of oth­er reli­gions. This is par­tic­u­lar­ly true of the Chris­t­ian mis­sion­ar­ies as such peo­ple do not care whether they pro­vide an effi­cient respons­es or not ; all they care about is to respond, regard­less of the out­come. Is this reac­tion an idi­ot­ic one ? Well, we can­not claim that it is a stu­pid strat­e­gy ; because it is always use­ful to show your fol­low­ers that you are able to respond and speak loud­ly, drown­ing oth­er voic­es. The psy­cho­log­i­cal fac­tor is after all always impor­tant here. But what is glar­ing indeed are the con­tent of such ​“respons­es” because the writer tries to show that he is com­pe­tent in the field when in actu­al fact he is total­ly unqualified.

It has always been the mis­sion­ary tra­di­tion to jump from one nefar­i­ous claim to anoth­er in try­ing to ascer­tain the nature of ​“Allah”. We have pre­vi­ous­ly shown some of the more com­mon the­o­ries that they prop­a­gate, rang­ing from Allah (T) being the ​“moon god” to Ar-Rah­man being a term for ​“promeganate”. A recent mis­sion­ary alle­ga­tion has also been hurled against a beatif­ic salu­ta­tion of the Prophet Muham­mad sal­lal­lah ​‘alay­hi wa sal­lam. Now a new pos­tu­la­tion of the mis­sion­ary has been made in their arti­cle, name­ly that ​“Allah” is syn­ony­mous with the god Hubal of the pagan Makkans !

Answer­ing Islam has post­ed an ear­ly reac­tion in objec­tion to our pub­lish­ing of Han Kung on the Prophet Muham­mad (P). There are sev­er­al issues in this reac­tion by Jochen Katz, the de fac­to dic­ta­tor of Answer­ing Islam, that needs to be cor­rect­ed. We shall briefly respond to each of the allegations.

Some crit­ics of Islam have reviled the Prophet(P) as a self-indul­gent lib­er­tine. They have accused him of char­ac­ter fail­ings that are hard­ly com­pat­i­ble with…

The fol­low­ing is our par­tial response to the tirade authored by the bel­liger­ent Chris­t­ian mis­sion­ary Sam Shamoun, to be found here. This arti­cle will…
