In post-modern, anti-Christian and anti-Church analysis, Islam is a religion because Moslems say so. The main platform of Islam, is a book named 'Recital', whose name reveals its purpose, and in which 30% or more of the text is openly racist or supremacist; and a further 10% discussing, embracing, and enumerating the concept of slavery. You have therefore a manual in which almost half of the text supports and expands upon ideals which are the anti-thesis of what a religion is supposed to teach, namely the freeing of the mind, body, soul and spirit.

Sura 41 and its violence, indeed its hate speech, reviewed here, is not an especially unique chapter in the book Recital. Violence is a standard feature of a cult, as is slavery. Only 39% of Sura 41 deals in violence against the Infidel and hate speech.

Stray from Islam and you will be humiliated in this life and the next. Hellfire awaits you the Infidel swine, after the Day of Judgement – ordained and organized by Allah [41:6,9]. Penalties are threatened to rain down on those who stray from Muhammad's Sharia [41:16]. Stunning punishments appear inevitable to the evil Infidel [41:13]. Some other 'religious' verses of hate speech against the Infidel ape include:

Post-modern multi-cultural globalists, call the above 'moderate' and 'religious'. Violence is always yoked to slavery in cults. Sura 41 is no different than any other part of Muhammad's handbook of totalitarianism. The Al-Lah idol is always helpful to his 'slaves':

041:046 URL Whosoever does righteous good deed it is for (the benefit of) his ownself, and whosoever does evil, it is against his ownself, and your Lord is not at all unjust to (His) slaves.

Slavery is based on immorality of course, and also fear. If you are not a good slave of Al-Lah you will be tortured in this life and the next. Your only hope is to comply. No other activity – mental, physical, or spiritual – is needed, except slavish devotion to the Muhammad-Al Lah nexus [both are the same in my view]. This ode to slavery is what the Koran names 'righteous deeds'; and following the demands of the cult. Sura 41 reiterates this demand many times:

041:004 URL Giving glad tidings [of Paradise to the one who believes in the Oneness of Allah (i.e. Islamic Monotheism) and fears Allah much (abstains from all kinds of sins and evil deeds) and loves Allah much (performing all kinds of good deeds which He has ordained)], and warning (of punishment in the Hell Fire to the one who disbelieves in the Oneness of Allah), but most of them turn away, so they listen not.

041:008 URL Truly, those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah Islamic Monotheism, and in His Messenger Muhammad SAW) and do righteous good deeds, for them will be an endless reward that will never stop (i.e. Paradise).

041:026 URL And those who disbelieve say: "Listen not to this Qur'an, and make noise in the midst of its (recitation) that you may overcome."

041:027 URL But surely, We shall cause those who disbelieve to taste a severe torment, and certainly, We shall requite them the worst of what they used to do.

So how is the above 'religious'? Follow our cult or we will torment you [41:26-27]; and you will be damned [41:4]. If you are a good slave of Al-Lah you might be rewarded with paradise [41:8]. How inane. No Golden Rule; no faith through reason; no tolerance and certainly no gratitude in living. Be dumb, shut up and obey.

The important fact in Islam is that the theology could care less how you treat non-cult members, women, Jews and Christians. The vital impulse is submission and recital. Recite your rituals. Memorize the words of the un-created Koran. Mindlessly follow what Koranic law stipulates and allows. Ignorantly assume that whatever Muhammad said or did was divinely sanctioned and appropriate – even in a modern society 14 centuries divorced from the pagan, barbaric origins of the cult of Hub'Al.
