description: Iran: Harsh Arm of Islam sets out to bulldoze what it considers the most far-reaching and distractive of all travesty created by men. It is not my intention to trash Islam (but to) demonstrate that Shiite belief is irrational to nauseating heights. If world Shiite wishes to continue believing in deceptive teachings of Iran's Shiite ayatollahs after reading this book, that is their privilege, however, they will find it difficult to convince their children that the Shiite Islam is a religion to follow. Iran: Harsh Arm of Islam offers an unvarnished portrait of the Shiite religion, the past Shiite imams, including Imam Khomeini, and the struggle of Iranians fighting a conspiracy in the name of religion.Iran: Harsh Arm of Islam is not just another hysterical anti-Islam polemic but a forensic peep into the guts of Islam written by an intelligent, angry and compelling Muslim critics intimately involve with current events.This lively and compelling book is a product of nearly a decade of research and reflection on the relation and the polarization between secular minded Iranians and the Arab Iranian clergy. It shows the lack of patriotism toward Iran and the Islamic institution's loyalty to the sands of Arabia.. The book's balance critique and recommendations are credible and deserve serious considerations. Among much suggestion for change is for Iranians to shun the Arab ethos, The Arab Islam, and the Arab Allah. The seven-century Arab Allah that Arabs brought into Persia was created in their own image, helplessly incompetent and supremely ignorant. The ayatollah's of antiquity attributed superlative, culture-specific, human words to their Allah. Their Allah is accorded the epithets of allinfinite, all compassion, all merciful, all powerful, all knowing, and all seeing. As some Iranians would say, they "put watermelons under Allah's armpit to puff up his chest." It was also a smart way to promote the class and status of mullahs in the Iranian society. In assigning all power to Allah and to themselves the prerogative to carry out that power, they have obtained a free hand. Iranians should do away with the morbid Arab months in the Arabic calendar, especially the months of Moharram and Safar. At the same time, they should throw out the Arab Allah and embrace their own God. The Persian God of pre-Arab Islam who championed love, Compassion, wisdom, and tolerance for all people and all religions. By doing away with Arab Allah, Shiite clergies can no longer bequeath each other honorific titles by adding the word Allah to nouns to give definite and specific connotation to Arab Allah such as Ayat-Allah(Allah's "miraculous" sign), Ruh-Allah (Allah's spirit), Hojat-Allah (Allah's proof), to exert their influence over Iranians. Iranians will be able to study and choose any religion without fearing the firing squads. Also, Iranians should convert thousands of useless mosques that are centers for "prevention of knowledge" with much needed libraries, computer, Art, social activities, and learning centers. Perhaps in the past, the world has not been conscious of one of the most dangerous place, the "triangle of Terror" (Qom, 'Iran, Karbala, Najaf, 'Iraq', its complicity, its perverse brand of theology, its zealous opposition to western democracy, or at best, saw it as a rather more distance peril, but from this day on, the world must be on alert and worry.
