death to critics So instead of every earlier now you are giving isolated cases such as Theo van Gogh Vincent van Gogh Rashad Khalifa and Irshad Manji who received death threats or were killed by anonymous unknown radicals What happened to every claim Anyway to prove your case that Islam sanctions death sentence to its critics you can t just post the names of isolated cases where people received death threats from anonymous radicals You need to post the names of prominent Islamic scholars and universities such as Al Azhar not isolated radicals who issued the death sentence against these people The fatwa against Rushdie was rejected by Al Azhar and all countries except Iran So all you need to do is post Islamic sites not anti Islamic sites and isolated radical sites who issued the death sentence against Menji Rashad Khalifa Theo van Gogh etc Bring your proof Just throwing the names of isolated cases where someone received death threats from isolated anonymous radical doesn t prove Islam sanctions death sentence to it s critics After 9 11 many Muslims and mosques received threats and some Muslims Sikhs were even killed That doesn t mean the US sanctions death to all American Muslims You are such a pathetic joke dude Posting isolated cases where people received death threats from anonymous radicals doesn t prove a thing We don t even know for sure who killed Rashad You added even his name You need to post the names of Muslim scholars who issues death sentence against say Rashad Vincent van Gogg and Menji Then you need to post evidence that this was consensus among Muslim scholars on each of these cases Without that you don t have any case and you are refuted once again 09 33 30 Nov 2004 UTC Anyway to prove your case that Islam sanctions death sentence to its critics you can t just post the names of isolated cases where people received death threats from anonymous radicals You need to post the names of prominent Islamic scholars and universities such as Al Azhar not isolated radicals who issued the death sentence against these people The fatwa against Rushdie was rejected by Al Azhar and all countries these anonymous radicals represent the sentiments felt by their factions in ISlam they represent their interpretation of Islam I also provided examples of critics who were murdered by MUHAMMAD himself Al Azhar is not a higher authority than Muhammad No you have only provided two stories in Ibn Ishaq about Muhammad that are rejected by Muslims such as rejected here Al Azhar and Muslim scholars will interpret what Muhammad did and what Islamic law says not an anti Islamic bigot like you You made a bold claim that in Islam critics are to be to be killed I refuted that by giving examples that contradict that You then claimed that every critic received a death sentence You were refuted again You then posted a list of isolated critics such as Rushdie Menji Rashad Khalifa Theo van Gogh etc who received death threats from anonymous radicals That s like posting a much longer list of Muslims Sikhs who received death threats or were killed after 9 11 and claiming that American law allows Muslims to be killed You were refuted again You need to provide names of prominent well known Muslim scholars not anti Islam sites or isolated radicals for each of these cases and prove that they issued the death sentence After that you need to provide proof that that judgement was a consensus among Muslims scholars You didn t do that You were refuted once again Since you are an anti Islamic bigot you can t just claim that Muhammad did this or that or Islamic law says this or that and expect that claim to be inserted in Encyclopedia You need to provide proof You couldn t because you were wrong Try again dude You have failed quite miserably here 03 40 1 Dec 2004 UTC Furthermore whe opinons of secular governments are irrelevant of course Musilm countries rejected the death fatwa against Rushdie but this was due to international politics not due to religion Also as stated before Ayatollah Khomenie was a Shiah CLERIC The only way to be an Ayatollah is to be born as one Aside from being the dictator or IRan Khomenie was also the spiritial and religious leader of huge numbers of Sha ias around the world Khomenie wrote many fatwas and books about Islam His most famous fatwa of course calls for the murder of Salman Rushdie Now Al Azhar a SUNNI university SUPPOSEDLY rejected KHomenei s teachings This does not mean by any means prove that Al Azhar was right and Khomenie was wrong The fact that KHomenie was a shiah cleric while Al Azhar is a sunni university is also a gaping hole in this argument You have no ev
