One of the more common allegations hurled against Islam which I do come across occasionally is the so-called claim that Muslims are “prudish” about sex and are too conservative in their relations with their wives. By serendipity, I came across this excerpt from a 1960s sex education book from the UK which actually shows that the so-called “conservative” ideas were not limited to Muslims only in the past. Perhaps the world would be a better place had the West not gave in to the so-called “feminist liberalism” that became prevalent in the later decades.

News report of a Muslim man in the US protecting a Jewish American from a group of radical Christians in the US who beat up the Jewish man and insulted him.
I have in the past come across criticism from those from that “God Eez Lurveee” belief system that their religion is “superior”, and often honour killings that happen due to culture (and nothing to do with Islam) exist in regions such as Jordan and Pakistan are pointed out as examples. Well, this particular news report should remove the smirk from their faces now. The level to which these pseudo-monotheists have stooped to truly shows how pathetic their religious belief system really is in the first place. My deepest condolences to the Egyptian Muslim sister and her family for their loss and I grieve for them.
AN Egyptian Coptic Christian shot at his sister and her family, killing her husband, after she converted to Islam and married a Muslim, a security official said today.
Rami Atef Khella, 28, broke into the Cairo apartment of his sister, Miriam Atef Khella, and sprayed her family of three with gunfire, killing Ahmed Saleh and injuring Miriam and her daughter, the official said.
The official said Khella had been searching for his sister for about two years, after she left her home province with her Muslim husband and came to Cairo.
Police are searching for Khella and an uncle who accompanied him to his sister’s home and fled the scene after the attack, the official said.
What was that again about this being a “religion of love”? May her husband receive Jannah for he certainly has died as a shahid for the Deen.
Something about this whole liwat thing bothers me, despite the so-called “Qur’an swearing” and all. I’ve never seen a more relaxed sodomy victim sitting calmly in a room full of pressmen and photographers and taking questions without batting even an eyelid. You would think that a post-traumatic victim of sodomee would show some kind of anxiety disorder or distress after being violated in the butt-hole. But truth is, I do not see any of those signs in Saiful Bukhari Azlan. Do I think he is a victim? The answer is obvious.
As for the so-called “Quran-swearing” event itself, I have yet to see the video of the actual process taking place so I cannot say for certain what actually transpired, although according to the Malaysiakini reports the scene was recorded and shown to the reporters. I’ve done my fair share of swearing on the Qur’an to respond to the fitna of an Islam Liberal (who has convieniently until today yet to reply) but the way this whole thing is playing out in the “sodomy victim’s” case just does not feel right.
Coming soon…a name card fit for a “Muslim Internet Activist” (oh yeah, that’s yours truly!). I already had a business card done previously which I am planning to send to the printers soon, so I thought, “why not make another name card that covers my Islamic activism side”? Hence the name card that you see above. I kinda like it, it reflects my personal identity and reflect strong Islamic roots that I would like to present to others. It still needs some work though but I expect it to be done very soon for a final version.
