Here, from one who knows whereof she speaks....Ayaan Hirsi Ali
1. “The assumption is that, in Islam, there are a few rotten apples, not the entire basket,” Ali tells The New York Post. “I’m saying it’s the entire basket.”
2. She believed that, according to Islam, the infidel should die, that the Koran is infallible, that those who violated sharia law — thieves, gays, adulterers — deserved to be stoned to death or beheaded, as they were each Friday in a public gathering place she and her brother called “Chop-Chop Square.”
Today, she is that rare thing: a public intellectual who, despite death threats and charges of bigotry, calls for an end to Islam —
3. ....Ali says there are three kinds of Muslims. There are the violent, the reformers, and what she believes is the largest group — those who want to practice as they see fit and live peaceably but do not challenge the Koran, the Muslim world’s treatment of women and the LGBT community, or terrorist attacks committed in the name of Islam.
4. ...she refuses to label this group as moderate. She believes they have done nothing to deserve it. “I’ve never believed in the word,” Ali says. “It’s totally useless. I think we’re in a time now where we demand answers from Muslims and say, ‘Whose side are you on?’ ”
5. Ali argues for five amendments to the faith. “Only when these five things are recognised as inherently harmful and when they are repudiated and nullified,” she writes, “will a true Muslim reformation have been achieved.”
Those five notions are:
• The infallibility of the Prophet Mohammed and the literal interpretation of the Koran
• The idea that life after death is more important than life on earth
• Sharia law
• Allowing any Muslim to enforce ideas of right and wrong on another
• Jihad, or holy war
6. ...Ali cites a 2013 report by the Pew Research Center on Muslims’ beliefs. It found that in Pakistan, 75 per cent think those who leave Islam should be put to death. In Bangladesh, 43 per cent thought so. In Iraq, 41 per cent.
Those who believe sharia is the infallible word of God: 81 per cent in Pakistan, 65 per cent in Bangladesh and 69 per cent in Iraq.
She also cites a 2007 Pew study that found that among 18- to 29-year-old American Muslims, seven per cent had favourable opinions of al Qaeda,...
Ali thinks the US administration under president Barack Obama has failed.
....— when these people say they are killing in the name of true Islam, Ali says, believe them."
Ex-Muslim author and activist Ayaan Hirsi Ali calls for reform of Islam as we know it
Islam will never be changed because it has been extensively regulated ever since its early stages. I always say "according to the traditional knowledge in Islam" or "according to the saints of Islam". All that I say has been accepted for centuries and centuries. Even a government has its acceptable way of ruling coded and regulated from centuries and centuries ago.
There is nothing in the world except Islam. Even America's constitution is inspired by Islam (freedom of religion is a Muslim concept, it's not Christian). The West turned to science when the church was able to make peace with science, and that is thanks to the influence of Muslim philosophers. Indeed, Chrisitanity has troubles with science but Islam never had any, on the contrary, we find in the Qur'an in the 7th century:
"We are able to put in perfect orders the very tips of his fingers" or "We have made from water every living thing", etc...
There is nothing in the world except Islam, and Islam can only go forward, as shown by the fact that Islam is the fastest growing religion in this materialistic 21st century world. The goal of Islam is to guide one to reach the honor of becoming a serrvant of God Almighty, and God Almighty is above any form of humanness.
A Hadith
Abd Allah ibn Salam (Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace be upon him, his family, and companions) said, “O people! Spread the salams, feed others, maintain family ties, and pray at night when others sleep and you will enter Heaven safely.” [Tirmidhi, Hakim]
