Frontpage Interview’s guest today is Abul Kasem, an ex-Muslim who is the author of hundreds of articles and several books on Islam including, Women in Islam. He was a contributor to the book Leaving Islam – Apostates Speak Out as well as to Beyond Jihad: Critical Views From Inside Islam.
Not included in Dhimmi: idol worshippers, no sacred book, Sikhs, Bahai, Mormons, Qadianis. Books revealed after Islam are not acceptable (o11.2, p.607).
KG is this true? If so, how can DCP say what he does about Islam? Such non Dhimmi are not supposed to be allowed to live in Islamic countries.
Dan approaches Islam with a Mormon paradigm, and this makes things a whole lot easier for him when it comes to his apologetics.
He essentially believes that shortly after Muhammed died, Islam went into an apostasy.
Therefore, sharia law is something that came about later on down the road and Dan thinks Muhammed wouldn't have agreed with most of it.
But at tmes he tries to take this further by saying prominent Islamic figures wouldn't have agreed either. For instance, he believes Al Ghazali would never have condoned the killing of innocents. I then presented a citation by Ghazali that said exactly the opposite. I put it in my signature line at MAD and it was deleted and I was suspended. Dan never did address it.
He makes it sound like modern Islamic terrorism is just a recent innovation created by a "tiny minority." Whenever i point out how much of it is in harmony with what is exected of Muslims according to Islamic law, he tells me the Quran doesn't say it. Or he'll say Muhammed never condoned it. Whenever I present ahadith that proves Muhammed did condone such things, he tells me these are just folklore and not reliable.
He's always trying to spin his way out of things, so he figured it was less hassle if he just ignores me.
