I explore Surah 61 of the Koran, differentiating between the sacrificial love exemplified by Jesus and the distorted concept embraced by Muhammad and Islam. I also use the premises of Islam in order to demonstrate how orthodox Muslims should be Ahmadiyya, if they took their Koran seriously, which they do not.
Is this another video of yourself?
He is actually trying to deal with a complex subject, one that’s legalistic and therefore frequently dry, dry, dry.
Did I mention dry?
Yes, his presentation could include “production values” without a deep outlay of funds but he likes the way he’s doing things. He’s a purists after a fashion.
Yes.
Why should the Koran be taken seriously, beside Surah 61, there are over 60 passages in the Koran permitting lying, cheating, stealing and ever killing the Infidel.
Well first off Mohammad didn’t write the Qur’an.
Have you seen the CIRA International page? Jay Smith and Al Fadi have been discussing problems with the Koran for a while. I think they’ve done a nice job with their work. The typical Muslim is mostly repeating the same wrong “facts” about the Koran, which turn out to be wrong.

“Al Fadi, former Wahabbi Muslim from Saudi Arabia and the founder of CIRA International: The Center for Islamic Research and Awareness.
He is the researcher, editor, writer, and translator for numerous ministries, including “Answering Islam” and runs an outreach ministry designed for non-Muslim and Christians.”
There is no Golden Rule in Islam.
In its place there is what is allowed, and what is not allowed.
I go to check out these videos and find that the lecturer wastes a lot of time hemming and hawing and talking over his shoulder. I have read the Koran and considerable of the commentary- the Hadiths. I was hooping the speaker had some insights I had not but I have not the patience to get through the static.
I love CIRA. I was actually watching Al Fadi’s Ramadan series recently-and his interview with Sam Shamoun.
