Why is it that almost all the terrorism in the West is coming from the small minority of the population who are Muslims? Why are they doing this if, as politicians and clergy keep assuring us, Islam is a religion of peace? We are sure these questions are being asked in most homes. Your questions are answered in this book. The truth is that Islam is a religion of war, and the educated elite in the West have had proof of this for over 150 years. But since 9/11 they have been actively deceiving the rest of the population--because the elite dare not tackle the problem. Our journalists have totally failed in their function to challenge the correct the lies of politicians. So, the problem with Isla in the West has grown worse every year since the early 1990s. There is no sign that anything will be done to stop this until ordinary people take it upon themselves to understand Islam and expose the lies which paralyze the West's discussions of Islam. This book provides you with a revolutionary way to understand Islam: you can understand the Koran within minutes instead of months. You will have concrete evidence that any part of the Koran which appears peaceful has been cancelled by a later command to be violent. You will see Islam's hatred and contempt for non-Muslims laid bare. When teachers indoctrinate your children or force them to attend a mosque, use our book to shame these educators for their part in the deception. After reading this book you will understand the threat facing your children's future and you will have the knowledge to make politicians find some backbone. All over the world, history has shown that Islam offers two options: submit or die."--Back cover.

Forget all those evening news sound bites or diplomatically correct half-truths about the Koran and the religion of Islam. If you want to know what the Koran is really about, you have to know what it really says. Don Richardson gives you a nitty-gritty inside look at the Koran, helping to separate fact from fiction. These hard-hitting observations are not the author's opinion based on what he thinks the Koran seems to imply. Muslim boys are indoctrinated in military camps. Madrasa schools force memorization and repetition of the Koran, particularly those verses that promise heavenly rewards for martyrdom. It took courage to write this serious, documented, and well-sourced book. But the price of truth is courage, regardless of one's religion.

Book Of Allah ( AL QURAN AL KARIM or The Holy Quran ) The Quran ( Arabic القُرْآن, al-Qurʾān, "the recitation" ) is the sacred text of Islam . For Muslims, it takes verbatim the word of God ( Allah ). This book is to this day the first and oldest authentic literary document known in Arabic; Muslim tradition presents it as the first work in Arabic, with the specific character of inimitability in beauty and in ideas. For Muslims, the Koran groups together the words of God, revelations ( āyāt ) made to the last prophet and messenger of God Muhammad ( محمد, Muḥammad, "the praised") from 610-612 until his death in 632 by l ' archangel Gabriel ( جبريل, jibril ). The Koran is sometimes called simply al-kitāb ("the Book"), adh-dhikr ("the Reminder") or al-furqān ("the Discernment"). In this sense, it is, for Muslims, the expression of an uncreated attribute of God addressed to the intention of all humanity .
