From the ISGH’s about page.
What is ISGH
OBJECTIVES· To provide a platform for mobilizing our energies towards reconstructing an Islamic community in accordance with the principles of Qur’an and Sunnah.
In other words they are doing there part in turning the United States of America, into the Islamic state of America.
·
To provide a multitude of services for fulfilling the educational religious, social, economic and cultural needs of Muslim community in Houston.
· To provide our children and ourselves an Islamic identity in order to protect our community from non-Islamic environments; and…
That wouldn’t happen to include the ways of the kuffar (non-believers) would it? If the members of the ISGH don’t care for the American way of life, they might be happier living in an Islamic country. But unfortunately they will not leave, as they are here to try and takeover.
To Present the Islamic Point of View
Which means they will tell non-Muslims what needs to be done to suit Islam. So far we have seen their agenda, but there is something that makes things even worse with the ISGH. They are no small organization, not even close.
·
Largest Islamic community organization in USA operating 17 masjid and musallas in the greater Houston area
For those new to the subject, masjid and musallas equates to Mosques and prayer rooms. As we move on we see that this is no mom and pop shop.
Democratic, open and accountable charitable religious organization managed by a Board of Directors that is elected by the Muslim members in the greater Houston area. Local representation through self-managed Councils in each Center.
· Four full-time Islamic Schools and a Islamic Montessori school
· Quranic memorization (Hifz) & Reading program through Dar ul Uloom
· Fully equipped Funeral operation with dedicated Muslim Cemetery
· Major Zakat collection and distribution operation – distributed almost half million dollars in 2007 (over $40,000/month)
· Organize Congregational Eid salats
· New Muslim Support Group
Like I said, this is no mom and pop shop. Now lets take a quick look at their constitution.

Is that enough Islam for you? Well it gets worse, this organization is even hitting the prisons to increase the army of the enemy ideology. For some reason they have not done a good job of keeping their website updated. But I did call the ISGH, and the number is still live.
September 2006 Annual Dawah Report
“Let there arise from among you a group inviting to all that is good (Islam), enjoining the good and forbidding evil. Such will prosper.” (3:104)
“Say: ‘We (Muslims) believe in Allah and that which has been sent down to us and that which was sent down to Abraham, Ishmael, Issac, Jacob, and the tribes, and that given to Moses and Jesus, and that given to the Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and to Him we have submitted (in Islam)'” (2:136)

Recommended Dawah Material has developed over the years with these dawah activities.
Texas 13th Annual Prison Dawah Symposium will be held on Sunday November 19, 2006.
Quranic Studies have been the basis for all this activity. It is all due entirely to the Grace of Allah SBW. Presently in and around North Zone alone, as many as 32 Quranic Studies on weekly to monthly basis are held amounting to over 2000 hours of Quranic education per month.
Prisons lost to volunteers earlier and reincorporated in monthly rotation are Holiday, Ferguson, Pam Lychner, McConnell, Hughes, Beto & Gurney. Byrd, Limestone DC, Hodge, Powledge, Hilltop, Garza East and Garza West have no longer been on rotation list of the Islamic volunteers from Houston. Ellis and Eastham units have been temporarily removed from the rotation of volunteers as a disciplinary action against the misbehavior of the inmates towards the chaplaincy department unrelated to the volunteers.
Muhammad Bey of Huntsville has been in charge for follow-up of the inmates released to Houston. Over 26 have been rehabilitated in the Houston community.
Dr Mazhar Kazi and ICNA have been actively involved in the education of the new Muslims and their integration in the community.
Did you see those numbers? Now please remember that is just from one Islamic organization. In the meantime, non-Muslims in America are arguing with each other, as to whether there is an Islamic threat or not. As a whole, we had better get our act together soon. Let us move on and see if there is any talk about assimilating. From their study circles page.
Respect for the Holy Prophet
Let us realize that the Holy Prophet r was perfect in respect of knowledge, character, morals, and deeds. There being no short coming in his traits. If we realize this fact, who can be an exemplary person for us beside him? He r is a perfect example for all of us and the best of individuals.
Yes guys, you read it correctly. The Islamic Society of Greater Houston believes that Mohammad the liar rapist, and terrorist was perfect. Did you ever wonder why Muslims will not criticize Mohammad?
Let us now ponder the directives of the Holy Quran and ahadith in this respect. Allah says:
1. That you (people) may believe in Allah and His Messenger and that you assist and honor him, (that you) and glorify (Allah’s) praises morning and afternoon. (48:9)
2. So by your Lord, they will not be momin till they make you (Muhammad r) judge in all disputes between them and find in themselves no resistance against your decisions and accept them with full submission. (4:65)
3. And believe in My messengers, honor and assist them. (5:12
4. O believers, answer (obey) Allah and His messenger when he calls you. (8:24)
5. And honor him and help him and follow the light (Quran) which is sent down with him. They are those who reached their goal (successful). (7:157)
6. Make not (understand not) calling of the messenger among you as your calling one another. (24:63)
7. And whoever disobeys Allah and His messenger he has indeed strayed into plain error. (33:36)
8. O believers, don’t enter the prophet’s houses unless permission is given. (33:53)
9. O believers make not (a decision) in advance before Allah and His messenger. (49:1)
10. O believers, don’t say “RAENA” (to the messenger) and say “UNZURNA” (make us understand and hear). (2:156)
11. And those who annoy (hurt) Allah’s messenger for them is a painful torment (chastisement). (9:61)
12. O believers, raise not your voices above the voice of the prophet nor speak aloud to him as you speak to one another lest your deeds should be rendered fruitless while you perceive not. (49:2)
In hadith literature one reads:
1. The Holy Prophet r came to us in the afternoon. Water was brought to him for performing ablution and he performed ablution. The people around him began to gather the water that remained and rubbed it on their bodies.
2. Urwah bin Mas’ud t said that when he r commands them they race to obey. When he r performs ablution they compete to collect the water of his ablution. When he r speaks they lower their voices to a whisper and they do not look him in the face but lower their gaze in reverence to him r.
3. Urwah bin Mas’ud r said, “By Allah, never was it that the Messenger of Allah r cleared his throat and spat but it (the spit) landed in the palms of one of his companions who rubbed his face or body with it.
4. Urwah bin Mas’ud t relates from al-Miswar and others each vouchsafing for the other that when the Prophet r performed his ablution they almost fought each other for his water.
5. Urwah bin Mas’ud t said, “By Allah, I have been sent as envoy to the kingdoms of Caesar, Chosroes, and Negus, but I have never seen a king whose people honor him as the companions of Muhammad honor Muhammad.
6. Ibn Sirin has said that he submitted to Ubaydah t that he had a strand of the Holy Prophet’s hair that was given to him by Anas t. Ubaydah t said, “If I had it, it would have been dearer to me than the world and whatever is in it.
7. Asim Ahwdi t narrated that he saw the bowl of the Holy Prophet r with Anas t. It had split and was held together with silver threads. He added that the bowl was very grand. It was made of the finest wood. He also quoted Anas t as saying, “I had offered the Messenger of Allah r to drink from it several times.”
8. Salim bin Ja’d t reported from Jabir bin Abdillah t, “While I was with the Messenger of Allah r and it was time to pray the ‘asr prayer, there was very little water left that was presented to the Holy Prophet r. He r put his hand into it and then opened his fingers and said, ‘Those who want to perform the ablution may come here and benefit from the favor of Allah.’ Water gushed out of his fingers and the companions performed ablution and drank the water. Thus I did not let the opportunity go and drank from it to my content because I knew this water was auspicious.”
What have we learned about the Islamic Society of Greater Houston? Allegiance to Islam, Mohammad, and nothing else.
Statement from the Oath of Office application.
‘- not seek any personal glorification or financial gains by and through the use of this office.’
Is this a normal and required instruction for all applicants to declare and sign when entering any office in the States or has this one been tagged on because even muzzies don’t trust each other?
Mahound was a corrupt little thief who took one fifth of all booty for himself. This tradition lasts to this day and it was so lucrative that all the first caliphs after Mahound were murdered by their successors so that they could get their hands on that booty. The sunni/shitie split was also due to the same issue.
‘Mahound was a corrupt little thief who took one fifth of all booty for himself.’
Sounds more like a Mafia Don.
Yep. The actual line says one fifth of all booty belongs to allah and his messenger. Of course, Mahound kept allah’s share on his behalf.
I think it came out of the ICNA membership handbook.
I don’t mean to interrupt this discussion about Texas, however, for those of you from New York the next demonstration will be on January 12th:
http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/2011/01/protest-the-ground-zero-mosque-january-12th.html#comments
Please try to be there.
Thanks.
Thanks for the update!
This is just a technical question. Perhaps its out of line since its not really the subject at hand.
According to this article, *”8. Salim bin Ja’d t reported from Jabir bin Abdillah t,”
**”Water gushed out of his fingers and the companions performed ablution and drank the water. Thus I did not let the opportunity go and drank from it to my content because I knew this water was auspicious.”**
Does this mean what “I” think it means? Are they saying they washed their feet & then they ‘drank’ that water?
Um-mm, I am not so very sure I would want to drink water that had been used to wash someone’s feet.
No, lets be real here…. there is no way I would drink water that had just been used to wash someone’s feet, including my own! If I was in the desert & thirsting to death that would be one thing. Otherwise, its an open invitation to some sort of disease or illness, isn’t it?
Oh well… like I said, not necessarily on subject but I had to ask!
Thanks.
Hey, that’s nothing. Not only do arselifters drink camel piss but that also drank Mahound’s piss and sweat and ate his faecal matter.
This is all in the hadiths if you want to look it up.
UGH!
The world needs protection from Islam.
So Touche.
As a Texas guy, I have looked up, and am aware of the comeings and goings of the Umma at large. But this actualy came as a shock to me that Montessori schools are owned by Moslems. I always thought that Montessori schools were worshipers of “the old Gods” or “trees” or “thor the thunder god” I had no idea that Montessori schools were owned by Moslems. Weird…
I had to look this up. Looks like they own a few –
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=montessori+muslim&aq=0&aqi=g1&aql=&oq=Montessori+musl&gs_rfai=
Its not clear if they own them all though.
Thanks for this article Christopher. I am from Houston and this is the very group that sent me a watered down version of the Quran in 98.

Your’re welcome, and thanks for pitching in!
Your Welcome brother,
Hey that Islam Exposure TV Network I told you about (ABN) asked me to be their “State Representative” for their English speaking apologetics department. I’m not sure of your religious beliefs (really doesn’t matter) so maybe this might be something for you also. They are creating a document to let perspective Reps know exactly what is asked of them. BUT ANYWAY, since I have my foot in the door over there I will be telling them about you again soon and will encourage them to contact you about being like a field reporter for them. So in a few days you should receive something from me to consider. I’ll forward you the Document they send me and I will Ccc an email to both you and the founders daughter to try to connect you guys to see if there might be the possibility that ya’ll could be of help to each other.
Take care
Cya soon
damon
P.S.
Also, after I get through with my new site @ http://ReligionOfConquest.com I’ll try to remember to do a piece on the Quran this group sent me and I’ll link it to your piece here.
Your piece and this group here gives me good reason to really consider ABN’s offer. I’m eager to see what they have in mind.
Hi Damon,
Congratulations! That is great, and they must have really taken a liking to you, because it happened pretty fast. I am definitely interesting in taking to them, and can be reached here. [email protected]
Good luck, and thanks!
Chris
Hey Logan: Give us a list of opposition to this Muslim Garbage.. Surely there is organized desenters…thanks..garland
they are almost at the point where they invite us to islam or kill us…
Under the guise of multicultural psychosis, Islamists have gained a stranglehold over public discourse.Using freedom of religion as their stealth weapon of choice, Muslim supremacists will turn the US upside its head-if NOT beaten back. They use the SAME methods all over the west, yet NO one in authority stops them.
Truth be told, within a decade-if not sooner-there will be a major confrontation.A confrontation between freedom loving Americans and Islamic supremacists. There IS a clash of civilizations.
No kidding….
It’s about time you showed up! 🙂 I just shake my head when some want to be elitist intellectuals, say there is no clash of the civilizations.
Thank you Christopher for this article. I live in the Houston area (Friendswood, actually) and was not aware that the infestation was this advanced. I will start paying a lot more attention to this and will help spread awareness. Thanks again.
Thank you David850, they need to know we are onto them.
I have to disagree with you somewhat over your observation that no-one in authority stops the muzzie doctrine of conquest over the west. There are some who are taking the first baby steps to contain and stop this onslaught such as Greet Wilder, various European countries banning the islamic death shroud of the burqa in public, the cessation of minaret building in Swaziland. Even my own government due to public pressure have begun banning membership of certain groups like islam4UK and with the rise and popularity of people like Nick Griffin of the BNP, more people are becoming very aware. Small things on the grand scale perhaps and not fast enough for some but there is a saying in the UK ‘that from tiny acorns mighty Oaks will grow’

For the record: Allah isn’t the God of the Christians and Jews. The Christians and Jews embrace the Ten Commandments of the True God.
Allah, actually Satan, hates the Ten Commandments. I’m sure you’ve noticed that Allah teaches only cruelty, violence and destruction of the human race, including the Muslims. For example, witness how the Sunnis murder the Shiites, and vice versa, every day. Muslims murder more muslims than non-Muslims. The record is more less 85% Muslims to 15% “infidels.”
The Muslims who embrace Shariah are the true enemies of mankind, i.e., everyone, including the Muslims. The Muslims who reject Mad Pig Shariah are actually our friends. That is the bottom line. So if you learn that a so-called Muslim rejects Shariah Law, be extra nice to him.
WE MUST DESTROY THE CRIMINAL ACTIVITY OF ISLAMISM BEFORE THE CRIMINAL ACTIVITY OF ISLAMISM DESTROYS US.
Thou shalt not kill.
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s wife.
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s goods.
Any Muslim would tell you that these three statements are a perversion and a lie sent to misguide the infidel.
Sura 109 (Mecca:):
“Say: O Unbelievers!
I do not serve that which you serve,
Nor do you serve Him Whom I serve;
Nor am I going to serve that which you serve,
Nor are you going to serve Him Whom I serve:
You shall have your religion and I shall have my religion.”
The false moon-god is NOT the One True God.
There is no god named Allah, and Moo-hamhead (piss be upon him) is no messenger of God.
Welcome to the site Right is Right!
All that sura is saying, for those of you who care about the truth, is that, “You have your religion and I have my religion. I will never believe your way and you will never believe my way. So, like, Peace, man.”
When I read through this website, I wonder if there are any true Christians here, or if these people posting are all just uneducated atheist hate-mongers.
Just saying.
That is within the confines of Islamic Law. Which means Christians do not have equal rights as Muslims under Islam. Of course you left that part out.
I do not see anything for a non-Muslim to like about that.
As for the rest, your comment about Christians is just an attempt to get them to back off on Islam. In other words, you are just another failed Muslim con artist.
Let me know when you want to debate the issue.
Truth Detector said “The Muslims who reject Mad Pig Shariah are actually our friends.”.
Well, the enemy of my enemy may be my friend, but I’m sure not going to put a lot of trust in him.

If I were closer to Houston, I think I would like to empty my bacon greese and fat back in their cemetary. 🙂
What would happen if a pig were to graze in the cemetary?
Apart from the koranimals shitting themselves, we’d have a good laugh at their antics.
I’ve got news for you ISGH scum: you CAN’T live according to Islam in MY COUNTRY. We will not LET YOU do so. If you want to live like idiot minions of the bloody child-raping desert bandit, go back to whatever Moslem crap-can you leaked out of.
America must be purged of every last trace of Islam and the enemy invaders who practice it. The same goes for the rest of the civilized world. There is NO PLACE for Islam in ANY civilized nation.
I am so angry at Islam and if you’re not too, then I can honestly say that you are sick . Islam violates so many human right it should disgust any half-decent human being to the core.
Islam ordains that apostates are to be killed (not quickly but by stoning so that they can die SLOWLY and PAINFULLY), it orders limb amputations for petty theft, allows raping women, orders lashings, allows for Muslim men to beat their wives, that women are blame if they’re raped, that molesting little girls is perfectly ok, it orders those who insult Islam and all those who do not submit to it are to be killed by beheading and cutting of their hands and feet.
Dont feed me that pure bullshit that this isnt part of Islam, everyone of these acts are legislated by the Quran and Islamic scripture from the hadith.
Then theres all these ignorant fucks who dont know jackshit about islam, they try to be politically correct and applaud themselves themselves for being open minded; they’ll do that right up the moment the jihadists slit their throats.
To say that it is racist to criticize Islam is like saying its racist to criticize Nazism, it doesn’t make sense, they’re both hateful and inhumane ideologies. These wars arent about foreign policy, it never was.
This war was started when Muhammad (shit be upon him) ordered all Muslims to fight disbelievers until you convert them or subjugate them to dhimmis (second-class status where they’re forbidden to preach their religion carry religious relics under penalty of beheading), if they refuse it warrant their deaths.
This is a global jihad to make one islamic state, are you blind? Look whats happening in virtually every country: mylasia, indonesia, pakistan, afghanistan, iraq, iran, spain, saudi arabia, nigeria, somalia, morroco, egypt, britain, etc… muslims are killing innocent people left and right!
These Muslims are following in the footsteps Muhammad who killed a bunch of innocent people, who was a pedophile that fd Aisha who was just she NINE years old, who lead caravan raids, who severed the heads of over 800 jews of the banu qurayzah tribe, owned blacked slaves, he brutally tortured people by burning their eye out and cutting off their limbs, he ordered the assassinations of poets like abu afak and asma bint marwan who undermined his authority, he was a fucking epileptic madman.
So when you see these crazy infantile Muslims threatening to kill people over some cartoons, should it be any surprise when they consider a man like this to be “the best example for mankind”?
Islam is unique among other religions, it mandates to establish sharia to the land through jihad (this one of the pillars), its goal is world domination it always has been from the very moment of its conception. We need to stop being politically correct, because islam will undoubtedly kill us all if keep spreading the lies that it is peaceful.
Welcome to the site Tim!
The pattern across the world is crystal clear. Yet far too many non-Muslims want to take the easy way out, and remain purposely blind to this threat.
I am saddened by the misconceptions of Islam which appear on this site. I am a devout Christian, but I recognize Islam as one of the three Abrahamic religions to which Christianity is tied. Should you decide to take a closer look at the faith, you would find Islam actually also honors Jesus and Mary within their religious tradition, and that there is more that we share than divides us. It is important not to confuse radical terrorism with the greater Islamic community.
Mary
Tell this to the Christians in Indonesia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Egypt, and the rest of the Middle East. Those who remain alive that is and have not been able to emigrate. Remind them of how the slavery, rape, death and dismemberment of their family members is just a misconception. They know sadness more than you. If you had taken a closer look yourself you would realize that Islam is not a religion, Abrahamic, tied to Christianity, and certainly does not honor Christ or Mary. You would realize that the appearance of religion and commonality only exists to deceive and subjugate people to tyranny. You should perform a closer examination of what your devotion includes. Devotion to Christ and devotion to allah are as opposite as day and night.
Mary, as a Christian, as a Minister I am saddened by your comments and your lack of Biblical knowledge. Pay close attention to the following Scripture Mary, especially the WARNING in verses 10 and 11.
2 John 7-11
7 I say this because many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist. 8 Watch out that you do not lose what we[a] have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully. 9 Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take them into your house or welcome them. 11 Anyone who welcomes them shares in their wicked work.
You wrote: “Should you decide to take a closer look at the faith, you would find Islam actually also honors Jesus and Mary within their religious tradition, and that there is more that we share than divides us.”
Islam DENIES Jesus Christ. Islam denies the Crucifixion and the Resurrection, therefore by Biblical definition Islam IS the antichrist.
Jesus said: John 14:6-7
New International Version 1984 (NIV1984)
6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you really knew me, you would know[a] my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”
1 Timothy 1:2-4
New International Version 1984 (NIV1984)
2 To Timothy my true son in the faith:
Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
Warning Against False Teachers of the Law
3 As I urged you when I went into Macedonia, stay there in Ephesus so that you may command certain men not to teach false doctrines any longer 4 nor to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies. These promote controversies rather than God’s work—which is by faith.
2 Peter 2:1-3
New International Version 1984 (NIV1984)
2 Peter 2
False Teachers and Their Destruction
1 But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves. 2 Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. 3 In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.

1 Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2 This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3 but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world.
Mary, before you start defending the antichrist, read your Bible. As Christians, we should Pray for Muslims to be led from the EVIL that is Islam. That doesn’t mean DEFEND islam!

Read it.
ALL OF IT.
Quote:
Again from a purely subjective thinking the Muslims might think and believe with a firm confidence that they are worshiping the true God, “Allah” yet the reality is quite the contrary as objectively speaking we can only affirm the contrary. This point is clear from Scripture “Whosoever does not continue in the doctrine of Christ does not have God”. – II St. Jn 1:9
The teaching and the beliefs of Catholicism and Mohammedanism are different and contrary. Their concept of, and their approach to God, diverge and conflict. Catholics indeed accept as dogmatic truth the Holy Trinity, the Incarnation and the Divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Moslems vehemently and vociferously deny the Blessed Trinity [2], the Incarnation [3], the Crucifixion of our Divine Lord and the Divinity of Christ [4]. The Mohammedans have such a carnal notion of heaven that St. Alphonsus did not hesitate to declare “The Mohammedan Paradise, is only fit for beasts; for filthy sensual pleasure is all the believer has to expect there.” [5]
The Catholic and Christian God is ‘The Trinity,’ and our Lord Jesus Christ, the second Person of that Trinity, is the Creator and One true and merciful God. Despite monotheistic appearances, we do not have the same God; we do not have the same mediator. How then can it be that ” together with us they (The Moslems) adore the one, merciful God.” [6] This is incredible!

It would be blasphemous to declare that these false religions are the working of God. On the Contrary ”all faithful disciples of Jesus Christ well know that the false religions are only instruments of the devil to deceive souls and place them beyond Salvation” – [8a]
Pope Pius X long ago put forward that the modernist if they take logically there doctrine, would have no grounds for denying the Muslims there “experience” of ” god” as being just as valid as that of another “believer” and hence he states:
“Here it is well to note at once that, given this doctrine of experience united with that of symbolism, every religion, even that of paganism, must be held to be true. What is to prevent such experiences from being found in any religion? In fact, that they are so is maintained by not a few. On what grounds can Modernists deny the truth of an experience affirmed by a follower of Islam? [8b]
What a prophetic insight, Pope Pius X was so accurate that not even the Modernist came to deny what he stated, but only affirm the above with great audacity.

Islam is profane.
Mohammed is a false prophet.
To read the Quran as holy scripture is to be Muslim.
And to be Muslim is certainly to turn your back on the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
To be Muslim is to despise Mary, daughter of Joachim, of the house of Judah and wife of Joseph.
The Muslim Mary appears magically under a palm tree.
Our Mary was part of the nation of Israel, of the tribe of Judah.
Our Christ was foretold by centuries of prophecy.
Can anyone say the same of Mohammed.
Their Allah has no humanity.
Even in the Old Testament, God has human characteristics– a pre-figuring of Christ.
You, Mary, are no Christian if you honor the worship of Allah and the prophecy of Mohammed as holy.
Mary- Please read this and tell me again why you think the God Christians and Jews serve is the same as “Allah”

I have not seen such a blatant appetite for hatred from people who say they are Christians! The words here I have just read are vile and hateful. You hate what you don’t understand. Didn’t Jesus teach you to love even your enemies? Doesn’t he also say that if you
Have you not read your own Bible? If anyone hates his brother or sister it is as though he murdered them and such people will not enter paradise. Read 1john 3:15. I sure see lots of murderers on this page!
God forgive you haters and ignorant people. I know lots of Muslims who would do anything for me. They are the kindest people I know.
Stop hating and start learning what Islam really is instead of what you think it is. You will be surprised at the true friendships you can cultivate from Muslims.
Sarah….your empty talking points do not fly here. Prove I am “ignorant” and do not “understand” Islam. The Bible also says to fight evil, did you miss that part? Islam is as evil as it gets. Why don’t you send everyone of your so called friends here? You will see their true colors….
BTW, as a woman….which is your favorite aspect of Islam, child marriage or rape? Do some research before you defend.
Not everyone here is Christian. Do not assume. Did you so called friends tell you Muslims believe Jesus will return as one of them and destroy Christianity (break the cross)? I highly doubt it. I “doubt” Muslims would exploit your ignorance on Islam.
