“Abul Kasem is no better than Doctors”

By

Suhail Khalid

 

            This is in response to Abul Kasem’s Article “Westerners find $cience in the Quran” which is posted on Ali Sina’s website. Readers! You can find Abul Kasem’s Article over here:

 

http://www../Articles/abulkazem/science_in_quran.htm

 

          Readers! At the outset of Abul Kasem’s article, Ali Sina wrote that this article was published in the “News from Bangladesh” on April 18, 2001. I took a crack at exploring this precise article on newspaper’s website and in their archives as well, but “unsurprisingly” couldn’t find it (http://www.bangladesh-web.com/news/). I even wrote to the editor; however never received a reply from him as well. Allah knows better if this particular article ever published in any newspaper. Knowing Ali Sina and his fibs, it is again very grueling for me to have faith in this fable as well.

 

          Readers! Please do read the article by Abul Kasem. It is hilarious indeed. The author appeared to be so belligerent in faceting “Dr. Maurice Bucaille’s” & “Dr. Keith Moore’s” life histories. Bestowing the inkling that he was in the company of the Doctors all the time and nothing down all the things they were doing. Surprisingly, he is also aware of the “HIDDEN STORY” that King Faisal of Saudi Arabia had bribed Doctors to inscribe their books. He & his ally Ali Sina imagine that populace will believe every word from them by “NO EVIDENCE” in hand again. I would like both Abul Kasem and Ali Sina to enlighten me from where do they dig up these kinds of “INSIDE STORIES”.

 

Dr. Maurice Bucaille:

 

            Abul Kasem said, “The new Mullahs and other Islamists feel very happy whenever they find occidental (western white person) talks in favor of their faith (Islam)”. Obviously, why should not we? Why these people are so envious about it? It is an absolute fact that Islam is the fastest growing religion on the face of the Earth. For any reason, what other people articulate in favor of Quran are their own views for which they are responsible solely. If they are making a remark in favor of Islam then they must have discovered some things in this religion to be worth admiring. Why do they not address in favor of their own religions? Why only Islam? Why they only want to make Muslims happy by praising our religion? Why they do not consider what they have to face afterwards from their own fanatic “fundamentalist” people? Why they do not comment regarding other religions as well, as it is just a matter of furnishing some remarks.

 

In response to the writings and proclamations of these Doctors, people like Ali Sina and Abul Kasem; when they do not locate anything to hit-back Islam, they allege Muslims for bribing these “western white persons”. Subsequently, why people of other religions do not do the same? These are the facts which really make this supposition a sham that Muslims bribe these “western white persons” to verbalize in favor of Islam. On the contrary, it is actually the beauty of this religion which compels them to write in favor. This is the perfect example of Ad hominem which happens to be one of the favorite fallacies of Ali Sina; besides replying to the arguments of Doctors; Abul Kasem started by attacking or appealing to the person making arguments.

 

          He said, “Bucaille’s writings have become not only a source of inspiration for them, but it also has become their principal source to confront the secularists who point out the various ambiguities, inconsistencies and the unscientific nature that one could find scattered all over Quran”. If someone has unearthed some new information from Quran and if it is accurate and truthful, then why should not we use it for our own knowledge and benefit? What kind of absurd statement is that from Abul Kasem? If this new information from the Quran is off beam then why all these “ambiguities”, “inconsistencies” and the “unscientific” nature were logically and evidently laid to rest already by our Muslim brothers long before? If Abul Kasem still does not consent the refutation by Muslims then he has to crop up some concrete reasons, logics and substantiations in his rebuttal, on the contrary and as always, people like him present the same old stories that were raised by millions before him. This is stupidity and nothing else. It is like a person who is keep on yowling at night, that “it is a day” “it is a day”, however if some one proves him with EVIDENCES that “it is a night”, he never accepts it and still keep on jabbering “it is a day” “it is a day”, and yet still keeping to himself the fact where he has to prove that why is it a day and not a night. Why people like Ali Sina and Abul Kasem never turn up with some other “stuff” besides howling about the same million years old stories that had already been riposted long before by our Muslim brothers.

 

          Article says, “If one reads Dr. Bucaille’s discourse on these topics, it does not take much intelligence to note the twisted logic and his clever selection of only those verses that serve his purposes”. Readers! You will come to know later in this paper that how Abul Kasem is also “different” from Dr. Bucaille in cleverly selecting only those verses that serve his own purposes. This is another subtype of Ad hominem fallacy; an attack which is directed at the circumstances or situation of the arguer, and the ad hominem tu quoque, which objects to an argument by characterizing the arguer as being guilty of the same thing that he is arguing against.

 

          Abul Kasem then fires up with the phenomenon of water cycle and he illustrated 5 steps and afterwards he said, “There is no doubt that this phenomenon was clearly understood even by the pre-historic people that enabled them to invent the system of agriculture, which is largely dependent on this cycle. Readers! For a lucid picture of water cycle in the Quran, please refer to my article https://www.answering-christianity.com/suhail_khalid/ali_sina.htm. Concerning pre-historic people were aware of this process is a BIG LIE from Abul Kazzab; Oops a slip-up, Abul Kasem. Such philosophies seem quite usual to us today, but we should not overlook the fact that they were not ubiquitous long ago. It was not until the sixteenth century, with Bernard Palissy, that we acquired the first lucid description of the water cycle. Earlier to this, populace talked about the theory whereby the water of the oceans, under the upshot of winds, was shoved towards the interior of the continents. They then revisited to the oceans via the great chasm, which, since Plato’s time, has been called the Tartarus. In the seventeenth century, a great intellectual such as Descartes assumed in it, and even in the nineteenth century there was still gossip of Aristotle’s theory, according to which water was condensed in cool mountains grottos and shaped underground lakes that noshed springs. Today, we know that it is the infiltration of rainwater that is accountable for this. If one put side by side the facts of modern hydrology with the data to be found in copious verses of the Quran on this theme, one cannot fall short to notice the incredible degree of concord amid the two.

 

          One of the conspicuous issues from people like Ali Sina, Abul Kasem and their disciples is that they forever yap and yowl lies, devoid of engendering sole “EVIDENCE” in against, eventually framing the entire fib as fact. However, I am not going to do that. Readers! Please find below the evidence:

 

Excerpt from this website:

http://www.search.com/reference/Bernard_Palissy

 

“Palissy is highly regarded for his contributions to the advance of soil science, geology, geohydrology, geomorphology and biology. The concept of the water cycle in his time assumed that sea water was conveyed from coastal to mountainous areas through subterranean passages by the action of wind, desalinatized by condensation in cool caves, forming underground lakes which fed mountain springs. Palissy correctly attributed spring water to rainfall percolating into the earth and emerging after slow travel through permeable layers overlying impermeable layers. Palissy expanded the concept of erosion and sedimentation as a contribution to landform formation and soil types, based on differences in rock resistance to weathering by ice and water. Palissy postulated how fossils were formed by the action of soluble minerals, and observed that some fossils were from plant and animal life forms no longer present, introducing the concept of biological species extinction.”

 

          By the grace of Allah I have established that the phenomenon of water cycle was not known to historic people and the notion of correct water cycle in Quran is an up-to-the-minute one, once again proving Abul Kasem as a charlatan and liar.

 

          Abul Kasem says in his article, “To say that the “water cycle” is something that is discovered by the Quran is simply laughable and reveals nothing but the real motive as to why Dr. Bucaille is so inclined in pleasing the Islamists.” Readers! No where Quran mentions that water cycle was DISCOVERED by it. Again a lie and allegation against Quran and no scholar pronounces that as well. I want him to show me a proof from Quran. Show me a single verse from Holy Quran where it depicts that water cycle is discovered by it.

 

Truthful testimony is that Abul Kasem should put into words that correct water cycle is mentioned in the Quran; however, it was discovered by populace later.

 

          Afterwards, Abul Kasem wrote some groovy aspects about Dr. Bucaille that he observed an immense opportunity to churn out good money out of this situation, and King Faisal bequeathed him immense sum of petro-dollars in order for him to put pen to paper a few good things about Islam. Therefore, Dr. Bucaille inscribed the book “The Bible, The Quran and Science”. Afterwards, Abul Kasem said, “This is due to the fact that almost all the Islamic countries have translated his book in their languages and it is a must read book for the new Mullahs”. Once again a lie from Abul Kasem, I have never seen this book in our mosques or in our religious schools. He should endow with evidence where it bares that it is part of the curriculum for the students in religious schools. This is propaganda of Abul Kasem yet again. Readers! Please do a comprehensive search on Islamic Universities’ and Islamic schools’ curriculum and rummage around for yourself if this book is ever part of it. I didn’t come across anything.

 

          Readers! Keep it in your consideration that till this point in his paper he still did not afford any sole “EVIDENCE” to shore up his accusations anti Quran. This is how these people play with the wits of common Muslims. Evidently, they are the most dangerous and treacherous species in the world operational against Muslims.

 

          Article says, “Money-he did make and plenty of it. Also consider how much blessings he had received from all the oil rich Seikh doms. For all of these, he is deeply grateful to his paymaster, the Arabs”. Readers! Over again, no evidence was put forth by Abul Kasem and I am trying my level best to understand from where is he receiving all these stories? Knowing Saudi Arabia and its people very well, it is very onerous for me to have faith in this particular notion that how come such a “crucial” information escapes from their custody so easily; as they are the nation who are very staunchly devoted to their country and Islam and they really keep their firm hands on information circling around their country so as to avoid any chance for leakage which would harm them in return. And when it comes to the matter of Islam; they become stauncher and they do their level best to avoid any false information to leak out so as to avoid bad image to Islam. However, I am still bemused that who was the “inside man” in Saudi Ministry who told this warped brain Abul Kasem all these fairy-tales? Surely, this is just only an implication of his daydreaming and distraction. When you “eat” and “drink” too much you perceive such hallucinations proofs. This is yet another example of logical fallacy, “Anecdotal evidence”, which is an informal account of evidence in the form of a yarn or hearsay because it is unscientific; as it cannot be investigated and scrutinize and is banned in some jurisdictions.

 

          Article says, “Dr. Bucaille leaves one with the impression that he (Dr. Bucaille) is convinced that Islam is the truest religion of all on earth and the Qur’an indeed the words of Allah. Now when a person is so much convinced in faith we naturally expect him to be a Muslim, isn’t it?” Why doesn’t Abul Kasem ask Doctor, in person? Send one of Ali Sina’s disciples or his own allies to ask him personally. And how sure is he on Doctor’s conversion? I didn’t locate a single article (known or unknown) stating Dr. Maurice Bucaille conversion to Islam with proper evidence.

 

          Article says, “Having digested the Qur’an and the Hadith thoroughly he knew what fate awaits him (and his family) if ever he changes his mind on Islam (death of apostasy in Islam)”. I am getting sick of this dogma of non-Muslims, it seems that they have clutched this erroneous idea and assumed that they can now easily be flippant. Isn’t it strange that there is no death penalty for a non-Muslim; despite when he reverts back to Islam and then abandons it (only in order to injure)? Why is this case? Have Abul Kasem and Ali Sina ever pressed their dumb-witted intellects in looking for the answers.

 

          Due to lack of education and grave assessments, numerous folklores have taken root in the Muslim world over the ages, and there have not been any exertions in the times of yore in order to clear these qualms. On the contrary, there has been a sort of endeavor to bolster these myths and misconceptions. These misinterpretations of Islamic teachings have taken their toll on the Muslim world and have toughened a mislaid acuity that Islam is an emblem of obscurantism, a religion of bigotry and retorts all with the sword.

 

          And there is no better misapprehension-strengthened with mix-up of Islamic beliefs over the years, other than the belief that Islam doesn’t endure apostasy. The Christian missionaries and the Western world are cashing in on it. Islamic scholars have tried to fortify their point of view and numerous leading Muslim reformists have fallen short to tackle the concern. The erroneous belief has also presented Islam as a medieval and killer religion. Islam bashers have time and again tried to carry the point by aiming out that Islam commands the butchery of a person if he or she reverts to another religion from Islam.

 

          Not a soul is impending to defy these broadly detained beliefs as well as set forth a persuasive contention with reference to the misinterpretation of Quranic teachings by Islamic scholars.

 

          THE QURAN IS ABSOLUTELY TACITURN ON ANY WORLDLY RETRIBUTION FOR APOSTASY AND THE SOLITARY TRADITION THAT OUTLINES THE CORE OF DECLARATION IS OPEN TO MANY INTERPRETATIONS. I want Abu Kasem and Ali Sina to show me a single verse from the Holy Quran depicting that apostates should be exterminated.

 

          Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) is reported to have said: “The blood of a Muslim who confesses that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and I am His Apostle, cannot be shed except in three cases: In Qisas for murder, a married person who commits illegal sexual intercourse and the one who reverts from Islam (apostate) and leaves the Muslims.” It is this last quote from the Prophet that forms the basis of the said ruling.

 

          While jurists are settled on the legitimacy of this custom, they disagree very far and wide on the apposite interpretation and thus, the commandment pertaining to apostasy. Understanding the diverse stances and arriving at the truth is decisive to our discussion of this subject matter.

 

          This tradition does not refer to Muslims who absconds the religion of Islam for other religions. Muslims who espouse the death penalty for apostasy utilize as their groundwork, the above cited Hadith, in which the Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) is reported to have said: “Kill whoever changes his religion”. Nevertheless, this is a frail groundwork as there is no historical testimony, which implies that Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) or any of his companions ever sentenced anybody to death for apostasy.

 

          The question of assassinating an apostate is not a straightforward one. Scholars have pondered it from a variety of angles and it is not merely an issue of killing someone for electing one religion or another.

 

          The question of apostasy has been disputed among scholars based on their interpretations of some Hadiths in view of the fact that the Quran does not stipulate any worldly penalty for it. For example, there was a situation at the time of the Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) where a man came to him in three successive days and told him that he sought to apostate. The Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) on no account took any action against him, and when the man ultimately left Medina, the Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) never sent anyone to arrest him, let alone kill him.

 

          This is why various scholars make a distinction involving individual apostasy and an apostasy which is escorted by extreme treason. Hence, it cannot be perplexed with the liberty of conscience for every individual, which has been assured in the Quran all through hundreds of verses.

 

          Abul Kasem said, “He also realized that he could make more money if he does not convert to Islam. Therefore, until today, he is a Catholic”. Readers! How Dr. Maurice Bucaille could make more money if he does not convert to Islam; this saga is still to be answered by Abul Kasem? And how sure Abul Kasem is in Doctor’s conversion? Likewise, I did not come across any realistic account which pronounces that he is “NOT” reverted. May be he is relapsed and keeping mum, just as the way Ali Sina is doing to his family. Who knows? He has to ask Doctor himself.

 

          Article says, “Being a man of science why does not he lend his ultimate allegiance to the scientific Quran? What answer the Islamists have for this enigma of Dr. Bucaille?” Ask Dr. Bucaille? Why is he asking Muslims? Do we care if he is converted or not?

 

          Article says, “Dr. Bucaille cleverly avoids the political, social and the violent parts of the Quran. Are not political and social matters scientific too? After all, there are such subjects as political science, social science, etc”. Dr. Bucaille writes that he could not find any verse in Qur’an that is against science”. Subsequently, Abul Kasem furnishes a list of items from Quran, and according to him, they should be part of science in Doctor’s book but they are not.

 

          Whatever Abul Kasem has printed in his article is refutable. One just to rummage around on Internet to acquire in depth answers. I will discuss some in detail in this paper as well. For now, I only like to give my reply to one of his examples where he says that Islam allows beating the wives in order to make them obedient. I just want to enlighten Abul Kasem that he is no better than Dr. Maurice Bucaille, when he said that Doctor “cleverly avoids violent parts of the Qur’an”, since Abul Kasem has done the same thing. He deliberately avoided good parts of Quran regarding the position of women in Islam. He just posted a particular verse that only served his own purpose, discarding bunch of other verses pertaining to women’s rights and position in Islam. Following are some of the verses from Quran:

“And give the women (on marriage) their dower as a free gift; but if they, of their own good pleasure, remit any part of it to you, Take it and enjoy it with right good cheer.” (Quran 4:4)

“And those who launch a charge against chaste women, and produce not four witnesses (to support their allegations),- flog them with eighty stripes; and reject their evidence ever after: for such men are wicked transgressors” (Quran 24:4)

“Those who slander chaste women, indiscreet but believing, are cursed in this life and in the Hereafter: for them is a grievous Penalty” (Quran 24:23)

“O ye who believe! When ye marry believing women, and then divorce them before ye have touched them, no period of 'Iddat have ye to count in respect of them: so give them a present. And set them free in a handsome manner.” (Quran 33:49)

          For particular verse which Abul Kasem was referring to where it says to beat the wives to make them obedient is this.

 

“Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allah has given the one more (strength) than the other, and because they support them from their means. Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient, and guard in (the husband’s) absence what Allah would have them guard. As to those women on who part ye fear disloyalty and ill-conduct, admonish them (first), (Next), refuse to share their beds, (And last) beat them (lightly); but if they return to obedience, seek not against them Means (of annoyance): For Allah is Most High, Great (above you all).” (Quran 4:34)

 

It is apparent from many reliable Traditions that the Prophet (Peace be upon him) himself extremely ostracized the idea of beating one’s wife, and said on more than one juncture, “Could any of you beat his wife as he would beat a slave, and then lie with her in the evening?” (Bukhari Volume 8, Book 73, Number 68). According to an additional Tradition, he forbade the beating of any woman with the words, “Never beat God’s handmaidens”. When the above Quranic verse authorizing the beating of an obstinate wife was revealed, the Prophet (Peace be upon him) reported to have said, “I wanted one thing, but God has willed another thing – and what God has willed must be best”. With all this he stipulated in his oration on the instance of the Farewell Pilgrimage, shortly before his death, that beating should be resorted to only if the wife “HAS BECOME GUILTY”, in an obvious manner, of “IMMORAL CONDUCT”, and that it should be done in such a way as not to cause pain. (Idea taken from: www.islamicity.com)

 

Readers! The Arabic word used in this particular Quranic verse is “nushooz” نشوز for “ill-conduct” and afterwards Allah gave two chances to wife prior beating her eventually; first to warn or scold her, second to reject sharing her bed. However, if she is still not eager to return back to her obedience then only beat her lightly.

 

If wife is a sane woman and submissive to her husband, in that case, she would certainly turn up on a right path after a trivial caveat (first chance). Still, if she is a bit rebellious then husband should refuse to sleep with her (second chance); therefore she should think over her own conduct and revert to her obedience. If still she is not willing to compliant then it means she is not interested in dwelling with her husband and as a last resort, beat her lightly (last option). Here beating is only to “SCARE” her and just to make her realize by force that she is erroneous and she is making a huge gaffe of her life where she is putting her marriage in jeopardy. Therefore, she should return back and save her marriage which is the most important thing in the life. For a “sensible” woman; only first two warnings are enough to understand and if she returns back then it is good for her. If a husband besides applying first two warnings starts beating her wife instead, is culpable; and Allah will certainly ask him for his conduct towards his wife.

 

Everyone is aware of what actually ensue to children of estranged couple. There are millions examples present in our “western” world. This is just only one example out of thousands. Therefore, Islam gives uppermost priority to saving a marriage by any chance; similarly, it has put such an extreme punishment on reunion if so partners decide to divorce each other (which I will speak in detail later in this paper).

 

There are only two places where this Arabic word “nushooz” نشوز is used in Holy Quran as far as I am aware. The other place this word is used is in Quranic verse 4:128:

 

“If a wife fears cruelty or desertion on her husband’s part, there is no blame on them if they arrange an amicable settlement between themselves; and such settlement is best; even though men’s soul are swayed by greed. But if ye do good and practice self-restraint, Allah is well-acquainted with all that ye do. (Quran 4:128)

 

          Readers! In this particular verse Allah is speaking about ill-conduct from husband’s side.

 

The list of items prepared by Abul Kasem which in his twisted intellect should be part of Dr. Bucaille’s book is down below and we will discuss some of them. Readers! You will definitely come to know how ignorant is this dupe Abul Kasem when it comes to the knowledge of Islam.

 

1. Hilla Marriage:

            Literally hilla marriage means an arrangement of reunification between the husband and the divorced wife if they desire. The arrangement is such that the divorced wife shall be given married to another man and after being divorced by him she will be admissible for reunification with her first husband by the system Islam prescribes.

 

          After divorce, Islam made it so rigid for the husband and divorced wife to reunite for a fact which is simply to avoid messing with this “tool” divorce, at the outset. Divorce should be the last option to be used if there is no other way out. Therefore, Allah in His Divine Wisdom made it very clear for the husband and wife BEFOREHAND, that reunion would be very strenuous if so they have decided to chuck out each other, thus deem million times before divorcing. Readers! You tell me what is so appalling about it? Allah is just only intending to keep husband’s and wife’s relation in tact.

 

Marriage is an attachment that coalesce two people who are in love to live as one for all eternity. It is the most beautiful part of life that we as human beings are able to experience it. Liberty to divorce is not effortless in Islam; despite you have to pay a very heavy price if you want to be reunited. Keeping in consideration the intricacy of reunion after divorce; if so husband or wife still choose to leave one another, then they have to keep in their minds that reunion is virtually unfeasible in Islam. Divorce in Islam is a very vast subject and has many laws and I am not going to go in details in this paper. Readers! Please search Internet for this subject.

 

          In another article of Abul Kasem under the tile of “Islamic Women’s Day” posted on Ali Sina’s website over here: http://www../Articles/AbulKasem50315.htm. He says pertaining to Hilla Marriage, “The right to enjoy another husband after the third divorce from the previous husband (hilla marriage)”. What is he talking about? What if he divorces his wife and his ex-wife marries another man, so does he expect another man not to have sex with his ex-wife after marriage? What kind of perception is this? That another man is a lawful husband of his divorced wife thus having a full right over her. In Islam, authentic traditions forewarn, hostile to, any pre-arranged ploy that a certain man should marry a certain divorced woman with the understanding that he would divorce her again to facilitate the former husband to remarry his divorced wife. This shall be an illicit deed and such a marriage shall be no marriage at all but adultery and the woman shall not become the lawful wife of the first husband by such a pre-arranged scheme. This is the law. Period!

 

2. Mut’a Marriage:

            Readers! Please read this article for in-depth knowledge regarding this subject.

 

https://www.answering-christianity.com/muta.htm

 

3. Cacophony of Azan:

            Abul Kasem says, “Cacophony of azan (loud prayer call, a chief source of noise pollution in Islamic world) must be scientific”. Readers! Total duration of each azan is approximately 3 minutes and there is five times where people do loud prayer calls everyday; therefore grand total comes to 15 minutes nearly for each day. And Abul Kasem is prattling that it is a chief source of noise pollution. Readers! You tell me is his statement making any sense to you? Out of 24 hours in a day; only 15 minutes of loud prayer call is actually a “chief source” of noise pollution according to him. Literally I am having immense doubts in the intellect of Abul Kasem of being in an upright state.

         

          Now compare Abul Kasem’s allegation against following points of mine:

 

1.     90 minutes of continuous noise pollution in watching a Western Movie in a cinema is tolerable by Abul Kasem. However, 15 minutes of loud prayer call is not going down his throat. By and large, people watch two movies in a day (holidays); therefore total comes to 180 minutes of immense noise pollution in just only one day. Readers! You enlighten me now, whether 180 minutes of CONTINOUS noise pollution in a day is more harmful. Or 105 minutes of NON-CONTINOUS loud prayer call “SPANNING ACROSS 7 DAYS” is more immense.

 

2.     If Abul Kasem brags that people normally watch one movie in a week; then I will be stauncher and say that only few percentage of people hear the loud prayer call for Fajar which is early in the morning and people are normally sleeping and never hear the call. If I take out 21 minutes (weekly) of Fajar prayer call from 105 minutes, thus scenario will be; 90 minutes of CONTINOUS immense noise pollution in watching one movie in a week is still dramatic enough rather than 84 minutes of NON-CONTINOUS loud prayer call “SPANNING ACROSS 7 DAYS”.

 

3.     180 minutes of noise pollution in watching an Indian Movie in a cinema is fitting with Abul Kasem; but in his dogma 15 minutes of loud prayer call is harmful for the people.

 

4.     8 hours of EVERYDAY’S immense and continuous noise pollution for the people working in factories like, sugar mills, steel mills, cement factories etc. where there are hundreds of machines making immense noise continuously for hours and hours is acceptable by Abul Kasem; but 15 minutes of NON-CONTINOUS loud prayer call is bugging him very much.

 

5.     People are still making music instruments, loud speakers and that is again acceptable by Abul Kasem; but 15 minutes of NON-CONTINOUS loud prayer call is a problem for him.

 

6.     Putting fingers in his ears for 3 minutes, five times a day NON-CONTINOUSLY is much easier than keeping them their for a long time while watching a movie or working in a factory. Keeping in consideration other noise pollutions we suffer everyday; Abul Kasem will end up keeping his fingers in his ears for his entire life if he is such against loud prayer calls that last only for few minutes.

 

7.     I can put forth million examples of noise pollution but I think this is enough for him.

 

Readers! You must have perceived now that how childish is Abul Kasem in declaring azan a “chief source” of noise pollution; (whereas he always has a liberty of putting fingers in his ears) and discards all other MAJOR SOURCES of noise pollution going around in the world.

 

          Readers! As regards to other points raised by Abul Kasem; you require just to do a comprehensive search on Internet for convincing answers. I am not going to repeat the same thing again and again that were already retorted by our Muslim Brothers long ago. If Abul Kasem is not able to confute anything else besides digging up the old stories, then my counsel to him to shut his foul mouth once and for all.

 

          One place article says, “If the Hindus could generate billions of petro-dollars they can surely employ many western professors to do just that”. Meaning, Hindus do not have billion dollars to take into service western professors. Isn’t it much of senselessness from Abul Kasem. India is one of the fastest growing economies in the world and they also have “fanatic” “fundamentalist” Hindus who can do whatever is required for the sake of their religion; as you must observe in the newspaper and in the media as well. Moreover, Abul Kasem considers that they cannot generate billion dollars for this purpose. Hindus do not require expending billion dollars for this purpose; one million can get them a “GOOD” western professor. This is mere foolishness from Abul Kasem. One can easily acquire such “western professors” who effortlessly can put up for sale their ego and faith and can do anything for money (same way Abul Kasem alleged Muslims to hire Dr. Maurice Bucaille & Dr. Keith Moore). If Muslim dogma is not coming in to grips and it is going out of their hands then employ western professors, and let them loose to defy Islam. Ali Sina can also put his $50,000 for this case. I want to see how strongly they can hit back.

 

On the other hand, it seems to me that may be “someone” else must have hired Ali Sina, Abul Kasem and their likes to deform Islam; but I want to advise them that they have chosen dumb-witted bunch of daft for this purpose and they are not going to prevail; even though, how much Ali Sina yaps and yowls regarding his self-claimed victories over Muslims, it does not have a bearing.

 

Dr. Keith Moore:

 

            Later in his article, Abul Kasem spoke about Dr. Keith L. Moore where he gave a short life history of Dr. Keith Moore and his job at King Abdul Aziz University, that he was hired to help in interpreting Quranic verses. I have nothing to say regarding this because I do not have any information. But there is one another interesting part where he said, “One wonders why the Saudi Government has to employ an infidel to interpret the Qur’an when there are no shortages of Islamic scholars for this job. Why did not the Saudis have qualified people from the ‘Islamic brother’ countries?” Who said that Saudi Arabia does not have qualified people from the “Islamic brother” countries? Besides them, they have also hired lots of westerners as well and these people are working in Saudi Arabia for quite a long time. Dr. Keith Moore happens to be very famous and connoisseur in his field; therefore, Saudi Arabia might have hired him to help them out in interpreting Quranic verses in accordance with modern science. What is the problem with this?  Is taking help from an expert banned in Islam? What if your teacher is a Muslim who happens to be the best in his field, don’t you consult him if you need to ask anything pertaining to that field? Or will you go to a less qualified non-Muslim teacher for explanation who will do nothing but to injure your intellect? This is foolishness and idiocy. People like Ali Sina and Abul Kasem are definitely by-products of such less qualified “teachers”, as it is clearly evident from their writings. Which verse of Quran is prohibiting us from consulting experts for explanations and help? However; Quran is saying the opposite: What Abul Kasem has to say about this?

 

“ask thou, then, about Him of any acquainted (with such things).” (Quran 25:59

 

          Abul Kasem said, “There are separate pay structures and perks for the whites and the dark skinned people in most Arab countries.” Readers! Please note that how Abul Kasem is keep on lying to the people. I work with an oil company in Middle East and the pay structure over here depends upon the personal living cost back in your home country. If you look at it in a broader vision; An American will get the same salary package after cutting down his calculated expenses and living cost back in his home country, as compared to an Indian. And it is the case in most of the companies in Arab countries. Similarly, an Indian-American (Dark Complexion) will definitely get more salary than that of a person who lives in India and this is just because of the living cost back in his home country. Therefore, no matter if you are white or dark; salary is based on the living cost back in your home country.

         

          Likewise; I have seen many people working in Middle East; after switching to other nationalities they ask for additional benefits from their employers. No matter if you are white from India or black from America; YOU WILL GET YOUR SALARY AS PER YOUR LIVING COST BACK IN YOUR HOME COUNTRY. PERIOD!

 

          Regarding other craps from Abul Kasem about being educated and knowledgeable do not count in Arab countries and Arabs prefer white skin over black one; these are all lies and nothing else. I have seen black Americans working over here as well and they are getting heavily paid as well.

 

          Readers! Afterwards, Abul Kasem presented Dr. Keith Moore’s statement which is a propos to Quran and said, “Bravo! What could be a better statement that this from an infidel to please the Islamists! Notice that he never mentioned whether the statements in the Qur’an are scientific or not”. Readers! Abul Kasem mentioned that Dr. Keith Moore never in his speech mentioned whether the statements in the Qur’an are scientific or not. Let’s see how much Abul Kasem is on truth. Readers! Please find below the video recorded statement from Dr. Keith Moore stating scientific nature of Qur’an.

 

“Because the staging of human embryos is complex, owing to the continuous process of change during development, it is proposed that a new system of classification could be developed using the terms mentioned in the Quran and Sunnah. The proposed system is simple, comprehensive, and conforms with present embryological knowledge. The intensive studies of the Quran and hadeeth in the last four years have revealed a system for classifying human embryos that is amazing since it was recorded in the seventh century A.D. Although Aristotle, the founder of the science of embryology, realized that chick embryos developed in stages from his studies of hen’s eggs in the fourth century B.C., he did not give any details about these stages. As far as it is known from the history of embryology, little was known about the staging and classification of human embryos until the twentieth century. For this reason, the descriptions of the human embryo in the Quran cannot be based on scientific knowledge in the seventh century. The only reasonable conclusion is: these descriptions were revealed to Muhammad from God. He could not have known such details because he was an illiterate man with absolutely no scientific trainings.”

          Abul Kasem said, “This type of research works on Islam is very seldom properly supervised or checked by an independent third party.” Readers! Did we Muslims ever hide any research work on Islam from people? Every research is out and out available for the world to see. Whatever research made by Dr. Maurice Bucaille and Dr. Keith Moore is publicly available in the form of books. So you be the “independent third party” and verify our claims. Islam has nothing to hide from the people. Islam is for the people. It is not Islam that needs people; however, it is people who need Islam.

 

          Afterwards, Abul Kasem said that many a time he received unsolicited research findings on Islamic matters from some obscure Universities in US, Canada, U.K. Again no evidence was presented by him. Moreover, he gave an example of one research finding that was designed to prove that the Islamic Halal method of animal slaughter is better than the western style of slaughter. The researchers used EEG machine to measure the pain threshold and pain duration of the animals when slaughtered in the halal way and compared with the haram (forbidden) way of animal slaughter. It seems his example is pointing towards the research done by Dr. Wilhelm Schulze and Dr. Hazim (Anglo-Saxon name) at the school of Venerinary Medicine, Hanover University, Germany. The Professor and his colleague have found that the ‘Direct Method’ of slaughtering an animal, which is the Islamic method of Dhabh, is more merciful as compared to the conventional method in the west, whereby the animal is stunned with a ‘captive bolt pistol’ before being slaughtered. I am not going speak about this theory; however, I will take the words of Abul Kasem where he used “obscure Universities” for such researches. Readers! Let’s see how “obscure” is Hanover University. Please find below some facts about Hanover University in Germany:

          Readers! There are lots of other important facts regarding this University from where the research papers came out. My advice to you is to search University’s website for an in-depth information and come on a conclusion yourself if this particular University is “obscure” or not, as per mentioned by Abul Kasem. One place on the University’s website it’s written that scores of scientists from different parts of the world visit their University for research. Why these scientists visit this University if it is “obscure”? Now I know why Abul Kasem did not give names of “obscure” Universities in his statements; the reason is in this way he would be proven dishonest and the readers will take it for granted what ever he is saying. This is how the intellect of people likewise Abul Kasem, Ali Sina and their disciples operate; devoid of engendering any evidence and proof of their tarnished theories and daydreaming; they tend to believe everything without asking for any proof. This is idiocy and stupidity. No book, No faith, No Authorities, No Intellectuals to back their twisted atheistic believes and it seems that they have taken a responsibility to entitle everyone else a waste. This is insanity and nothing at all.

          Readers! If you read the article by Abul Kasem then you will definitely perceive that the whole writing is a day dreaming from him. He did not provide any proofs and logical arguments to back his tarnished theories; but just to provide what his miniscule mind deems which is in this logical world is not acceptable. May Allah show us the right path, Ameen!
