It Was Islam That Hijacked the People, Not the People Who Hijacked Islam Posted: 25 Feb 2015 01:07 AM PST On the blog, No Compulsion, in the "About Us" section, the blogger says: I was born in Alexandria, Egypt to an average Muslim family… Like most of my generation, we considered Islam to be the most important thing we should learn in order to please God; and to gain Paradise after death. And as we were taught, the only religion accepted by God is Islam; all the rest are falsehoods, as in Qur’an verse 3:85, “If anyone desires a religion other than Islam, never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (All spiritual good)." ...So, automatically when anyone asked us, “What’s your religion?” We would answer, “Al-hamdu-lillah muslimah!” or “Thanks be to God, I am a Muslim!” Islam for me, like for all of us, was life and life was Islam. Lessons and speeches came and went from the mouths of our teachers and Imams, and we took them always as incontestable realities; we shouldn’t (or couldn’t) ask, “why, how or who?” To be part of the flock of Allah we must not ask — just believe and apply, as in Qur’an verse 5:101, “O ye who believe! Ask not of things which, if they were made known unto you, would trouble you; but if ye ask of them when the Qur’an is being revealed, they will be made known unto you. Allah pardoneth this, for Allah is Forgiving, merciful.” I spent 27 years fooling myself, being fooled and fooling others, turning all around in an endless infernal circle… It was a circle of lies and evil. From the time I was able to think for myself, a simple question plagued me: Since Allah created all human beings, why would he hate non-Muslims and require us to fight them? How could God hate? And since I am the creation of Allah, as a female, why did he create me a with lack of reason, as opposed to men? These were the first questions that broke my brain into pieces. From that point on, my long journey of seeking the truth began… And as long as I walk, I discover new hidden catastrophes in the sacred texts of Islam, and teachers unable to answer or reconcile the prescriptions for domination, violence, and slavery. I couldn’t fool myself anymore. I discovered I was lost, I was lied to…WE ARE ALL LIED TO! I understand that Muslims who read this and refuse to hear, will accuse me of being a jinn (literally a demon). I discovered the ultimate truth that Muslims and non-Muslims alike refuse to admit — Islam is not a religion of peace…The problem resides in Islam itself, its teachings, the example of the man they believe is their prophet… It was Islam that hijacked the people, not the people who hijacked Islam.
