BBC News | UK | Extra Police To Protect Muslims
Police draft in more officers and take extra measures to protect UK muslims from violent reaction to the US terror attacks.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/1555162.stm

Extractions: West Midlands Police Members of the Muslim community have welcomed the police action saying they fear being targeted following last week's attacks in the US. The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr George Carey has called for a "building of bridges" with the Muslim community in Britain, not "walls". Scotland Yard Commissioner Sir John Stevens has vowed to protect Muslims from any violent reaction to the terror campaign in the US.

Extractions: In the Name of God, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful The Muslim World, demographically speaking, defines where majorities and significant minorities of indigenous populations are practitioners of the Muslim faith, that is, Islam. Though it is not necessary to maintain, Islamically speaking, geopolitical boundaries and state structures, per se, de facto national entities and political boundaries exist.

Teaching About Islam And Giving Muslims Hope Through Jesus
Christian perspective on Islam, with a message of hope for muslims who turn to Jesus.
http://www.MuslimHope.com

Extractions: The varied Muslim reactions to this attack, from dancing in the streets, to disgust and embarrassment, have shown how fractured the Muslim world today is. A common question is: "Is Islam really a religion of peace?" and Muslim answers, in word and deed, seem very contradictory. Perhaps this web site will show about the original that Mohammed taught and practiced. Dear Muslim reader, my prayer is that as you browse through the material on this site, that you would see Islam for what it really is, a corruption and counterfeit of truth, and the Bible for what it really is, the Word of God that He is able to preserve. My hope for you, dear Muslim, is that you and I will together please God as we dwell together in Heaven, saved through the precious blood of Jesus.
City Journal Winter 2002 | Why The Muslims Misjudged Us By Victor Davis Hanson
Since September 11, we have heard mostly slander and lies about the West from radical Islamic fundamentalists in their defense of the terrorists.

Nor do the Palestinian parliament and advisory bodies in Kuwait. None of these faux assemblies is elected by an unbound citizenry, free to criticize (much less recall, impeach, or depose) their heads of state by legal means, or even to speak openly to journalists about the failings of their own government. Plato remarked of such superficial government-by-deliberation that even thieves divvy up the loot by give-and-take, suggesting that the human tendency to parley is natural but is not the same as the formal machinery of democratic government. Our own cultural elites, either out of timidity or sometimes ignorance of the uniqueness of our own political institutions, seldom make such distinctions. But the differences are critical, because they lie unnoticed at the heart of the crisis in the Muslim world, and they explain our own tenuous relations with the regimes in the Gulf and the Middle East. Israel does not really know to what degree the Palestinian authorities have a real constituency

BBC News | AMERICAS | US Trials Of Muslims Delayed
US judges delay trials of muslims for fear of jurors' bias amid a wave of anger over last week's suicide attacks.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/world/americas/newsid_1550000/1550037.stm

Extractions: Judges in the US have postponed several trials of Muslims amid fears that they are unlikely to receive a fair hearing in a climate of rising racial tension. President George W Bush has called for an end to the racist violence that followed last week's attacks in the US, in which the prime suspect was identified as the Islamic militant Osama Bin Laden. Speaking at Washington's Islamic Centre, Mr Bush condemned what have been described as revenge attacks on Muslims and other members of ethnic minorities. He said acts against the innocent violated Islamic teaching.
Muslims Here Decry Religious Extremism
The decree seeks to remind muslims that Islam condemns violence and to assure The fatwa is an educational process to muslims and nonmuslims.
http://www.suntimes.com/output/terror/cst-nws-fatwa30.html

Extractions: In light of bomb attacks in London and Egypt, Muslim interest groups in Chicago on Friday joined Muslims nationwide in publicly decrying acts of violence performed for religion's sake. Several Muslim interest groups here officially endorsed the fatwa, or religious decree, issued by the Fiqh Council of North America against religious extremism. According to the teachings of the Quran, acts of terrorism targeting innocents are forbidden in Islam, the fatwa reads. The decree seeks to remind Muslims that Islam condemns violence and to assure non-Muslims that not all of the Islamic world resorts to violent means. "We believe suicide bombing is criminal and sinful," said Imam Abdul Malik Mujahid, chairman of the Council of Islamic Organizations of Greater Chicago. "Killing civilians, for whatever cause, will result in God's utter displeasure." Ahmed Rehab, of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, Mohammed Kaiseruddin, president of the Muslim Community Center, and other area leaders joined Mujahid at the Downtown Islamic Center, 231 S. State, to announce their support of the fatwa.

Ten Common "Logical Fallacies" Made By Muslims
muslims, though sincere, don t realize some of the illogical reasoning they must believe to serve Allah. Here are ten common logical fallacies made by
http://www.chick.com/information/religions/islam/fallacies.asp

Extractions: © 1996 Research and Education Foundation Christians must be prepared to answer the typical objections made against the Gospel. Most of the objections are based on simple logical fallacies. The following is a list of some of the most common fallacies used by Muslims. Note: The average Muslim does not know that his arguments are logically erroneous. He is sincere in his beliefs. Thus you must be patient and kind in sharing with him why his arguments are invalid. 1. The Fallacy of False Assumptions: In logic as well as in law, "historical precedent" means that the burden of proof rests on those who set forth new theories and not on those whose ideas have already been verified. The old tests the new. The already established authority judges any new claims to authority. Since Islam came along many centuries after Christianity, Islam has the burden of proof and not Christianity. The Bible tests and judges the Qur'an. When the Bible and The Qur'an contradict each other, the Bible must logically be given first place as the older authority. The Qur'an is in error until it proves itself.
UK Islamic Mission - British Muslims' Web Portal
The Mission offers an information and news portal for muslims in the UK; includes news of events at local and national level to improve understanding of Islam, activities, and branch network.
http://www.ukim.org/

Extractions: UKIM condemns acts of terror Revulsion and Shock The UK Islamic Mission unequivocally condemns these barbarous acts of criminality, perpetrated in the heart of London. It appears that these incidents were coordinated and indiscriminate, which has resulted in the loss of innocent lives and caused an untold number of injuries. No words can describe the utter repulsion felt by the Muslim community at the loss and injury of human life. The UKIM would like to re-iterate that the true message of Islam is one of peace, justice, freedom and the love of humanity. Islam holds the sanctity of human life in the highest possible regard and shedding the blood of an innocent person is seen as a most heinous and repulsive crime. We disassociate ourselves from any organisation - claiming to be Muslim or otherwise; which carries out acts which are contradictory to the teachings of Islam. The UKIM would like to assure the people, police and emergency services of London that regardless of who perpetrated this terrible crime, the Muslim community, who number over 1 million in London, will do its utmost to help in whatever way possible. This seems a planned and coordinated act of terrorism and we are confident that the law enforcement authorities will soon discover the identity of perpetrators responsible for this contemptible act and bring them to task with the full force of the law.

With links to sources such as photos of the cave of Hira, helps nonmuslims understand who Muhammad was and what he contributed to Islam and the Koran.
http://www.click2religion.com/muslim_islam/muhammad_story_ch1.htm

Extractions: Translator, A. Yusuf Ali If asked, "Does the Koran (Quran) say Jews and Christians can go to heaven?" most people in the Western World would probably answer, "I doubt it." Thats because most people in the West have little or no understanding about Islam, a Muslims faith. What they DO know scares them. GO TO CHAPTER 2
Muslims And Democracy - Editorials/Op-Ed - The Washington Times, America's N
The Washington Times Editorials/OpEd muslims and democracy.
http://www.washingtontimes.com/op-ed/20050721-093748-2242r.htm

Extractions: Indeed, the rise of European and to a lesser extent American Islamofascism seems to discredit the argument that democracy is a deterrent to terrorism. If Muslims in democratic societies are inherently less radicalized than the fundamentalist or dictatorial regimes in the Muslim world, then why is Europe seething with radical Muslims? Why, for instance, are British Muslims bombing their own capital? To understand why, we must revisit a central component of the Bush Doctrine, which focuses on eradicating international terrorism. Which brings us back to the central question: As young Muslims in the Arab world take up the call for reform, why have their counterparts in Europe regressed to hatred? The reasons are several and not at all simple, but one key reason lies within the organizations that claim to represent Muslims in the West. When terrorists strike a Western target, for example, the response from Muslim groups usually follows a standard script. First, they condemn the terror as a departure from true Islam; then, invariably they worry of a "backlash" against moderate Muslims by angry Westerners. Then, nothing. In the relative calm between attacks, these organizations, typically the U.S.-based Council on American-Islamic Relations, have perfected the politics of victimhood. For all their bluster that bin Ladenism is a departure from the Koran, they seem relatively unconcerned about removing its taint from their ranks.

Reza Fakour Safa Ex-Muslim Spirit-filled Christian Evangelist Biography
A series of articles by Iranian Exmuslims explaining why they converted from Islam to Christianity.
http://born-again-christian.info/islam.htm

Extractions: A former fanatical Shi'ite Muslim, Reza is well-versed in the law and history of Islam. He received Jesus Christ as his Saviour, after praying for God to show him the Truth. Reza is a powerful evangelist to Islamic people, with signs, wonders and miracles confirming his preaching of the Lord Jesus Christ's Message. Today people all over the world are trying to cover their sins by doing good or by keeping the regulations of their religion. They attempt to ease their sinful consciences and absolve their guilt by performing religious rituals and good deeds. They pray, fast, give to the poor and so on. Yet deep inside they still feel guilty. We are born with guilt and sin; we inherit them from our ancestors Adam and Eve.
