ALLAH AND SLAVERY This Friday, America commemorates the 25th anniversary of Islamofascism’s terrorist attack on our country. It is morally depraved that New York City has a Hate America Islamofascist Mayor on this day. So let’s now put Mamdani and his ilk on the defensive. Let’s start with this: “Koran” is not a name, it is the Arabic word meaning “recitation.” Thus, the Koran is not a book to be read, it is a chant to be recited in order to put one into a trance. The Islamic scripture known as The Koran is, Moslems believe, a transcription dictated by Mohammed of the voice he heard in his head. The voice, claimed Mohammed, was that of an angel named Gabriel who claimed he was reciting the words of Allah, God Himself. Mohammed was illiterate, and so could not write down himself the words he heard in his head. Thus the chain of dictation, in official sacred Islamic history: At various times over a period of 22 years (610-632), Allah speaks to Gabriel, Gabriel says to Mohammed what Allah says to him, Mohammed says to his followers (not all the same but various ones over 22 years) what Gabriel says to him, his followers memorize what Mohammed says to them and write it down (often much later) on whatever is around such as stones and pieces of bark. Only after Mohammed’s death in 632 were all these stones and pieces of bark or parchments gathered together by Mohammed’s best friend Abu Bakr and compiled into one collection entitled the Koran. None of the inscribed stones, bark, or parchment scraps survive today. Radical or Sharia Moslems insist that there is absolutely no chance of mistranslation or misunderstanding at any point in the dictation-transcription chain. Every word, every single word without mistake, in the Koran is the actual real word of Allah. There is a deadly fragility to any set of rigid dogmas fearful of change. Because they assert that the Koran is the actual and unalterable voice of God, rather than God speaking through a human interpreter subject to mistake and misinterpretation, Radical Moslems in a frenzy of fanaticism are terrified that if any Koranic error is found the whole thing could be wrong. So they’re stuck asserting complete total perfection – so all you have to do then is show some Koranic imperfection -- like the embarrassment of Allah’s advocacy of slavery. Slavery is no embarrassment to Allah, nor had it been to Moslems who practiced it for 13 centuries. Now it is and we need to take advantage of the opportunity. Slaves, most always female slaves for sex, are referred to in the Koran as “possessions of the right hands” of Moslem believers. In Sura (chapter) 33 verse 50, Allah specifically approves of slavery, saying he has made it “lawful” for Moslems to own and have sex with “those whom thy right hand possesses of those whom Allah has given you as spoils of war” – women captured in war and enslaved. In Sura 33:52, Allah says he doesn’t approve of men having sex with women other than their wives, except for “those whom thy right hand possesses.” Allah says a man having sex with his slave girls is OK – even, by the way, if they are married to one of their owner’s male slaves. There are a host of other references to slavery and slaves that Allah makes in the Koran. Sanctioned by God Himself, slavery was institutionalized and ubiquitous wherever Islam was practiced, with countless millions enslaved from the 7th century until now. The scandal of the Moslem Slave Trade is a subject for another time. For it is a rare Moslem indeed who forthrightly argues for the morality of slavery today. The object here is to make them choose: Since Allah sanctions slavery in the Koran, either slavery is moral or Allah is immoral. Choose. Without fail, when you present Radical Moslems with this choice, they will wiggle out of it with Clintonesque “depends on what the meaning of ‘is’ is” equivocations on the meaning of slavery. Well, gotcha. If the real meaning of slavery in the Koran is in dispute and doesn’t literally mean what the entire Moslem world was sure it meant for 1,400 years until recently – then just about every other word in the Koran may not have a literal meaning either. Doubt City. That’s where we want Radical or Sharia Moslems to live. The only way to keep the Koran as the Word of God is to make that word have multiple meanings or different meanings from what it used to be. Either that or Allah was morally wrong to sanction something as evil as slavery and keeping women as sex slaves. It’s an issue, it’s a question, it’s a choice that Sharia Moslems like Mamdani, Ilhan Omar, Hasan Piker, and Abdulrahman Mohammed El-Sayed need to be made aware of. For instilling doubt is the single most critical thing to do in confronting Sharia Islam – for only through doubt can come change. Radical Moslems cannot become peaceful Moslems, Sharia Moslems cannot keep their Islam to themselves and stop trying to impose it upon the rest of us, until they first begin to doubt that their interpretation of the Koran is the only true one. Destabilization through doubt. It’s our path to victory over Islamofascism.
