The Muslim World's Inferiority Complex
American Thinker.com ^ | February 1, 2020 | Raymond Ibrahim

Muslims around the world are thrilled at the recent news: "Harvard University ranks the Koran as the best book on justice" is the January 20, 2020 headline of a report published by Youm7, a popular Egyptian news site visited by millions of Arabic-readers. It writes:

The official website of the World Muslim Communities Council said on social media that, after lengthy, scientific studies that closely examined the rules of justice contained in the Noble Koran, the American university of Harvard has ranked the Noble Koran as the best book on justice[.] ... In its final evaluation, Harvard University's Classification Committee cited verses from the Noble Koran which confirm that the Noble Koran is a book replete with the rules of human justice ... and that Islam has no room for injustice but rather includes tolerance and respect for the other.

Several other leading news websites and newspapers — including Al Ahram, Egypt's most widely circulated and state-owned newspaper, founded in 1875 — carried the story, followed by all sorts of triumphant celebrations on social media.

But is it true? Did Harvard make such a pronouncement? No. The real story is that, back in 2012, a group of law students painted a number of historical quotes dealing with justice on the walls of a Harvard building.

Known as the "Words of Justice," they consist of 33 quotes from a variety of thinkers and civilizations — including African, Chinese, European, and Hindu — from 600 B.C. to the present. Among some of the more recognizable names and documents quoted are Cicero; Augustine; Aquinas; the Magna Carta; Benjamin Franklin; Immanuel Kant; Gandhi; and Martin Luther King, Jr.

Is it really a complex if it’s true?

That’s not a complex! That’s just a “thing”.

It has an inferiority complex because it is inferior. When you ask for Muslim contributions to humanity. You get the number 0 and hospitals..

Both from centuries or millennia ago...

And nothing else...

Art and Science they have produced nothing even though they have been around for 1400+ years.

Meanwhile Other major religions can point to countless accomplishments..

Of course they feel inferior, because Islam sucks! Individuals do occasionally figure it out and leave but it’s like leaving the mafia. At least in the mafia you don’t have to kiss the Don’s ass 5 times a time.

Their deep-rooted insecurity is why they have to treat their women so badly.

I think the zero was from India. It just came our way via Persia.

Harvard University ranks the Koran as the best book on justice

That chapter on queers and rooftops is particularly interesting.

The "religion" so lame they have to recruit with the threat of death. They also have to threaten death to keep them.

Some "religion"! Can't stand on it's own without having to murder everyone.

Islam contributed hospitals because they were always at war cutting people up.

Islam created zero as a reminder of their contributions to humanity.

The Muslim ‘religion’ is nothing more than a platform and launching off point for an evil mindset that is bent on the destruction of state of Israel and to kill those who believe on Christ and force those who remain left in the world to worship their false god . I read parts of the Koran. It does not ring true like the Bible does when I read it. It is earily similar to the book of Morman.

Thomas Jefferson wrote a letter of warning against islam when he studied the Koran. The muslim pirates first attack on Americans was when they took 800 pounds of braver pelts that the Pilgrims had sent to England to help support their colony.

Not sure about hospitals, but you can cross the ‘0’ off your list. The zero in a millennia old Indian Hindu invention.

The only documented inventions goes to a now dead Palestinian with the invention of the cell phone bomb - what you’d expect from them.

Interesting article by Raymond Ibrahim. Thanks for posting.

Like all other totalitarians and anti-truth, anti-freedom, anti-individual, anti-life totalitarian collectives, Islam has a SUPERIORITY COMPLEX.
