Review 2: Islam Dismantled, Sujit Das, Ali Sina

This is a psycho-biography of mad Muhammad. Review one is here. In my view Muhammad is nothing more than a military-political cult leader, who fused some gibberish he had imbibed about Judeo-Christian theology, with existing Arab paganism, and celestial idol worship, in particular that of the moon deity ilah or Allah of Mecca, who was of course Hub'Al [lah]. This excellent book supports the quite glaringly obvious fact, that Muhammad was no more a prophet than Hitler or Mussolini. He was no more a man of peace than Stalin. He was no more of a leader of theology than Castro. Muhammad was in effect just another illiterate power-mad cult leader, racist, supremacist, violent, blood thirsty, sex-addled and hallucinatory. Moslems – not the brightest nor the most informed of people – never inquire, never rationalize, never think about who this man truly was. This is why Islam is and has always been, a dark barbarous cancer on the human body politic. It is a pagan fascism pure and simple.

Key points made by Das include the following.

Muhammad's psychopathic violence is transposed to the Allah-thing:

Allah and Muhammad humiliated every coward and made our religion victorious. We were glorified and destroyed them all. By what our Apostle recites from the Book and by our swift horses, I liked the punishment the infidels received. Killing them was sweeter than drink . (Ishaq: 576)

Allah allows Muhammad to slaughter and kill:

Allah said, ‘A Prophet must slaughter before collecting captives.' A slaughtered enemy is driven from the land. Muhammad, you craved the desires of this world, its goods and the ransom captives would bring. But As usual, Muhammad did not own his actions. Allah revealed a verse to clear Muhammad from taking any blame for his actions, 'He brought those of the People of the Scripture who supported them down from their strongholds, and cast panic into their hearts. Some ye slew, and ye made captive some. And He caused you to inherit their land and their houses and their wealth, and land ye have not trodden. Allah is ever able to do all things'. (Q: 33.26, 27). Narcissists have defense mechanisms by which they can disown their own actions.

Muhammad was a mass murderer:

Muhammad’s most dreadful act of cruelty came in April 627, when he killed the entire adult male members (some 800 to 900 of them) of Quraiza tribe. Their adulthood was determined by the growth of pubic hair. The women and children were captured as slaves, their homes and properties were confiscated and distributed amongst Muslims. This beheading ceremony with heavy swords started in the morning and continued whole day long and then by torchlight into the following night (Khan, 2009, p. 48). Muhammad kept one-fifth of the captured property of the Quraiza and the rest was distributed amongst other Muslims.

Islam is Terror:

The Prophet said: Allah made me victorious with terror . (Bukhari: 1.7.331). Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah’s Apostle sent us in a mission (i.e. an army-unit) and said: I have ordered you to burn so-and-so and so-and-so, and it is none but Allah Who punishes with fire, so, if you find them, kill them . (Bukhari: 4.52.259). Narrated 'Aisha: Allah's Apostle never took revenge (over anybody) for his own sake but (he did) only when Allah's Legal Bindings were outraged in which case he would take revenge for Allah's Sake . (Bukhari: 4.56.760) So you did not slay them, but it was Allah Who slew them, and you did not smite when you smote (the enemy), but it was Allah Who smote, and that He might confer upon the believers a good gift from Himself; surely Allah is Hearing, Knowing. (Q: 8.17) How skillfully Muhammad put the responsibility on Allah for having started the fighting and in terrorizing others.

Jews knew that Muhammad was a liar:

According to Allah, the prophethood is bestowed upon the children of Israel only (Q: 45.16), and more specifically upon the family of Issac and Jacob (Q: 29.27). But Muhammad was an Arab, not an Israelite and his family-line leading up to Ishmael is different from those of Issac and Jacob. The Jewish Rabbis caught the liar red-handed on this point. Jews also rejected Muhammad’s claim that Qur’an was divine revelation because it was not revealed in sacred language, Hebrew or Syriac. For Jews, Arabic was a language of poets and drunkards. They pointed out many contradictions in Qur’an, like Allah wrongly accused Jews of saying that Ezra (Ozayr) was the son of God (Q: 9.30) (Khan, 2009, p. 44). They also pointed out multiple errors in Muhammad’s versions of the events of the Torah and called him ignorant of Jewish scriptures which his revelation claimed to affirm. Jewish rabbis used to annoy the Apostle with questions, introducing confusion . (Ishaq: 239) Julas the Jew used to say, 'If Muhammad is right we are worse than donkeys.' (Ishaq: 242) I have heard that Julas the Jew used to make false professions of Islam . (Ishaq: 245) These Hypocrites used to assemble in the mosque and listen to the stories of the Muslims and laugh and scoff at their religion . (Ishaq: 246) In sum; the Jews completely rejected Islam calling the revelations as garbled, fallacious and at times unintelligible.

Fear the Narcissist:

...for a Narcissist, if these attributes are superficial and not accurate indicators of a person’s real worth; he takes them seriously and continues believing in his supremacy. Muhammad wrote in the Qur’an, Do not fear people, but fear Me. And, do not take a small price for My verses. Those who do not judge with what Allah has sent down are the unbelievers . (Q: 5.44). This Path of Mine is straight. Follow it and do not follow other paths, for they will scatter you away from His Path. With such Allah charges you, in order that you be cautious . (Q: 6.153).

Don't criticize Muhammad-Allah:

Allah prohibited criticism in Qur’an with the verses 5.101,102 and Muhammad demanded an unquestionable obedience from the Muslims. He knew that if Qur’anic criticism was allowed then it would lead to a situation where his false self would be exposed. A false self cannot survive without delusion, deception and lie; simply because it is false. Muhammad could not stand as a Prophet simply because he was a bogus.

Muhammad is bigger than Allah:

Allah very generously declared, 'Were it not for you, I would not have created the universe'. (Tabaqat, Volume - 1). Narcissists are mentally sick and their claims are strange. They also lack in judgment (Vaknin, 1999, p. 19), and massive deniers of reality (Masterson, 1990, p. 93; Vaknin, 1999, p. 23). This is what we understand from the extraordinary claims of Muhammad.

Freud would have a grand old time with Muhammad:

Id (true self, real self) – Muhammad: the weak, orphaned, neglected and unloved, coward, insignificant, illiterate and poor merchantman of Mecca who never got a meaningful employment in his life, and lived a parasitic life with the wealth of his wife. Ego (false self) – Prophet Muhammad: the Apostle of Allah, the best of creation, the preferred one, an excellent example to humankind, exalted above other Prophets in degrees and mercy to the world. Allah first created the light of Muhammad, out of which, everything which constitutes this world, were created. He is on a divine mission to conquer the world for Allah. Superego – Allah: The God, who had chosen Muhammad as His last Prophet and took special care for every whimsical demand of his beloved Prophet. Allah is the most merciful and most powerful God. He is the Lord of the worlds and best of all the Creators.

Muhammad was a mental midget, deranged, shrunken, violent, oppressive, mendacious and lustful. His actions tell you everything. Unlimited terror, war, sex slavery and concubinage, racism, supremacist rage and hatred, and greed. These are the attributes of someone who is very, very mad indeed. Yet Moslems tell us that he was loving, kind and peaceful. So too was Adolf.
