Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood Calls Qur'an and ALLAH LiarsThe Muslim Brotherhood is a sincere political religious organization, probably more political than religious. Though it is now global in its reach including having active and influential independent branches in Jordan (The Islamic Action Front), Muslim Brotherhood Palestine (Muslim Brotherhood), Syria (Muslim Brotherhood), and Saudi Arabia. But, it is in Egypt where it is largest and has its most pervasive influence. Related to my saying that Egypt's Brotherhood essentially labels both ALLAH and the Qur'an as being lairs, is this insight. I learned this from a wise school principal for whom I had the pleasure of working for many years. He brought considerable African-American wisdom to his leadership. A metaphor he often used about ducks that I think applies to the Muslim Brotherhood in each of the many nations where it is active. He often said, "A duck is a duck is a duck. If it looks like a duck, waddles like a duck, quacks like a duck, then it's probably a duck." Similarly, I am saying that a lie is a lie is a lie. If it sounds like a lie, flagrantly misrepresents the truth like a lie, and presents as truth, things that are not true, then it is probably a lie. This remains valid no matter how strong the lie word sounds. Because it is a basic, trustworthy guiding principle that a duck is a duck, is a duck and a lie, is a lie, is a lie. Three of the five publicly stated guiding idealistic principles of the often altruistic Muslim Brotherhood are these as are included in its creed. This creed makes three references to ALLAH and the Qur'an. Three of the Five Creed Principles1. ALLAH is our objective. And I personally have no doubt that when that idealistic creed was first written, that the men (not women) who committed to this creed were being quite sincere. But the reality is that when you are using the sacred terms of ALLAH and the Qur'an so freely, and you totally misrepresent ALLAH and the Qur'an; you may be on the edge of blasphemy without intending to be. To put it another way, you may be in the position of either labeling ALLAH and the Qur'an as liars. Or you must humbly acknowledge that you, yourselves are the liars. Thus, when you as the Muslim Brotherhood are able to bring yourselves to publicly admit that you yourselves are the misrepresenters of ALLAH and the Qur'an's Messiah's death and resurrection, then you are also acknowledging that both the Qur'an and ALLAH are telling the truth in Al-Qur'an's 3:55 about the Qur'an's Messiah's death and then being raised alive. When this occurs, you are no longer guilty of flagrantly accusing both the Qur'an and the Almighty ALLAH of lying. But what evidence do I have that I would dare to state that a fine organization such as the Muslim Brotherhood that has provided so much help for ALLAH's beloved poor, would call both ALLAH and the Qur'an liars? A Non-Hypocritical Highly Helpful HypotheticalPlease be patient as I now present my evidence and build my case. Hypothetically, let us just say for example that ALLAH Himself made a very strong statement in the Qur'an that was obviously intended to be taken literally. ALLAH Himself was speaking about a very important person to which the Qur'an devotes many, many different verses. But in this one particular verse that was emphatically proclaimed by ALLAH Himself, it provides vital information and facts which totally clarify the obviously intended meaning of what the Qur'an had stated in its more complicated verse. And that more complicated verse significantly does not have ALLAH Himself making the statements in the more difficult to understand statement. But in order to attempt to make sense out of the more complex information in the other complicated verse, well intentioned Muslim leaders cleverly and resourcefully composed a fable out of one complex Arabic verb phrase used in this one complex verse. Thus, these sincere Muslims invented this false fable that over time took on a life of its own, as they attempted to both make sense out of what the complex Arabic verb phrase actually means in the context of what they have concluded what they want the entire complex verse actually to mean. Thus, I sincerely ask you O Muslims, that if you were ALLAH, from which of the two verses, Al-Im'ran 3:55 where ALLAH Himself speaks, and confirms the Qur'an's own Messiah's death and being raised alive by Himself. Or, would you choose An-Nisa 4:157 which has other potential non-literal explanations, but which also includes the strange man-invented shubbiiha lahum myth in its attempt to make sense out of the literal wording of 4:157. So O Muslim people, which verse do you believe ALLAH would trust for the truth of what each of the two contradictory verses is intended to mean? Should they trust the initial myth verse? Or should they trust what ALLAH Himself concisely states which totally clarifies what the myth verse was intended to mean? Obviously, ALLAH would expect them to trust His own decisive and authoritive quote taken directly from Him which objectively clarifies the previous verses intended meaning. Therefore, the myth is no longer necessary and becomes harmful and misleading because it totally contradicts ALLAH's summary of clarifying facts that ALLAH Himself has presented that now makes total sense out of what was once complex, questionable, and admittedly a bizarre identity switch. So responsibly Muslim leaders must take effective steps to serve ALLAH by clarifying that the myth had a totally wrong counterproductive message for ALLAH's Muslims. In fact, it has actually been opposed to the truth of what ALLAH caused (mutawafiik) to historically occur in Jerusalem (Al-Quds) over 2,000 years ago. Furthermore, the way that certain sincere, but wrong Muslims had decided to understand both the complex verse which included the bizarre myth explanation totally contradicted the historical recorded previously set forth in the Injeel Book. And it was this book (kitab) which their own Qur'an strongly instructed the Prophet Muhammad himself to use as the final authority when he himself encountered any doubts. (See Yunus 10:94). Of course you would choose to trust and obey the decisive, short two part authoritative statement confirming the death and resurrection made by ALLAH Himself in Al-Im'ran 3:55. This statement by ALLAH is, in my mind, far, far superior in credibility to the complex verse of 4:157 which required an amazing shubbiiha lahum bizarre identity switch myth to make sense out of it. But of course I am not near as intelligent as the uncle of the now present King of Jordan who once was the present King's father's Crown Prince as well as all of the other Muslim Kings, Emirs, Presidents, Colonels, and Sultans who find no credibility problem with naively believing a bizarre man made myth which is a Crazy/Majnoon fairy tale. They actually choose this fairy tale instead of believing two sensible statements by ALLAH Himself faithfully recorded in the Qur'an's Al-Im'ran 3:55. I truly cannot comprehend how intelligent, ALLAH fearing men can now choose a fairy tale instead of choosing a clear statement in the Qur'an stated by ALLAH Himself. Of course, this information of the fairy tale is what all of the leaders of the Muslim world have swallowed while they have checked their brains in with the hat check clerk at the hotel in order to believe this scam. But you would not think that believing this fairy tale would strengthen Arab Muslim credibility with ALLAH. But of course, if U.S. credibility has not totally crashed with the W. Bush/Cheney debacle, all things are possible. But you would think Muslims would trust the solid anchor of ALLAH's Al-Im'ran 3:55 statement over the shubbiiha lahum man invented fairy tale. That is, unless you have been deceived, tricked, and blinded by the General in charge of one side of a great spiritual war that is definitely occurring between the forces of Evil and the forces of Good. And the clever deceiving General who is in charge of the forces of evil who now deceives and tricks even leaders is known as Satan/Shiitan. And he is totally opposed to the Merciful, Compassionate, Spiritual Entity who is in charge of the forces of Good who is ALLAH. Why Has the Muslim Brotherhood Labeled ALLAH and Al-Qur'an Lairs?First of all, no members of the Muslim Brotherhood intended to call ALLAH and the Qur'an lairs. But that is what they have de facto done. Not because the Qur'an has deceived them. But it has been because they have been both somewhat lazy and preoccupied with their own political agendas. So they have not put in the sufficient work required to understand what the terms, not crucified and not killed, as used in the Qur'an's An-Nisa 4:157 are truly intended to mean. Thus, they were also satisfied to trust their own perceptions regarding what the Arabic term shubbiiha lahum meant. So they took this wrong step to trust their bizare interpretation of a strange verb, rather than to trust ALLAH Himself to make a concise statement to clarify what shubbiiha lahum did not mean when ALLAH clarified in His own decisive concentrated explanation in Al-Im'ran 3:55 of what did actually occur to the Qur'an's Messiah on that horrible execution day in Jerusalem. Because when An-Nisa 4:157 and 158 and the first part of Al-Im'ran 3:55, are both read with an absence of concentration, and with preconceived ideas, the one verse 4:157 boldly misrepresents the truth and the other verse, the Al-Im'ran 3:55 verse clarifies the truth. Thus, when 4:157 is read while using Al-Im'ran 3:55 as a clarifying reference, An-Nisa 4:157 no longer misrepresents the truth. This is because 4:157 has been clarified by 3:55 as to what 4:157 truly means. So then 4:157 decisively will agree with the clear decisive statements made by ALLAH Himself about the Messiah's historical death and then being raised to new life so that he is now in the presence of Muslims today in order to aid them and commune with them. As simple as it may sound, the Arabic term shubbiiha lahum, instead of having any intention of the Messiah's appearance appearing to be on someone else meant something much simpler. Shubbiiha lahum meant that it appeared to them (the Jews) that when they saw him without life upon the cruel execution instrument after the Roman soldiers had thrust a spear deep into his side and blood and water came pouring out of it, vividly convinced them that he was permanently dead. But permanent death is what only appeared unto them (shubbiiha lahum) because he was only temporarily dead. How do we know his death was only temporary? The very next verse explains to us why his cruel death was only temporary, but that he had indeed actually died. Because it was necessary as the next verse tells us, for ALLAH Himself to need to use His own Wisdom and Might to raise him to new life. So he had not been permanently deceased because the new life ALLAH gave him made his permanent death no longer permanent. But since the leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood have allowed themselves to be intimidated by rigid Muslim leaders who have demanded that they believe An-Nisa 4:157 in a simplistic, wrong way in order to remain convinced that the Messiah did not die and was not raised. And because of their simplistic understanding they have made Al-Im'ran 3:55 out to be lying. Consequently they conveniently have ignored the obvious truth stated by ALLAH in the 3:55 verse. So they have decided to pretend that this powerful, inconvenient verse 3:55 directly spoken by ALLAH Himself has just sort of floated away from the Qur'an and is no longer there to clarify the truth that the Qur'an's Messiah's death and resurrection did indeed occur. The Wonderful Women Participants in the Arab AwakeningThe status quo of sort of silently allowing men to dominate religion and continuous political oppression in the Muslim Middle East may have still continued if it had not been for the added strength and legitimacy that perceptive outspoken indominatable women brought to the uprising. They significantly participated in the needed over-throw of the domination by the long time ruling class. So with the vital assistance of the courageous women, many issues are now out in the open and on the table. So these issues can no longer be suppressed or repressed. And one of those vital issues that must no longer be held in check is one of the never discussed reasons that it is exceptionally strategic for Muslim men to wrongly assume that they must continue to suppress the truth that the Qur'an's Messiah of Al-Im'ran 3:55 definitely was raised from death by ALLAH as is so clearly proclaimed in Al-Im'ran 3:55. The reason they think that it is in all Muslim Men's vital strategic interest to keep suppressing this powerful truth is this: As long as the Qur'an's Risen Messiah remains a hidden, irrelevant, forgotten, non factor in the minds of Arab Muslim Middle Easterners, the Qur'an's Risen Messiah continues to be of virtually no benefit or a helpful presence to Muslim women. In total contrast, Almighty and All Wise ALLAH must be recognized for what He proclaimed in Al-Im'ran 3:55 regarding how He Himself would victoriously raise His own beloved Messiah up from the cold tomb where the hateful Jewish leaders expected him to remain there forever. And the fiercely hateful Jewish leaders wanted him to remain in that tomb forever. But it is clear from both Al-Im'ran 3:55 and the historical record, that on the third day ALLAH used his Might and Wisdom to raise His Messiah from that tomb as He sacredly promised him in Al-Im'ran 3:55 that he would do. And as soon as Middle Eastern Muslims and especially Muslim women realize that he is Risen and accessible to them now, the whole dynamic in the Middle East will change for the better and ALLAH's precious women will enjoy a new more appropriate stature with the Qur'an's Risen Messiah now giving them the respect that they have long deserved. For it was absolutely no coincidence that ALLAH ordained that it was courageous women who were the first to be greeted by the Risen Messiah after he quietly walked out of the borrowed tomb. This was immediately after ALLAH had sent an angel that had rolled away the stone that had blocked the entrance to his tomb so that he had been able to walk out of it alive. And it was no mistake that the young Injeel writer Mark had recorded in his Mark account, 15:40 and 41, that it had been more than a small group of women who had been helped so much by the Messiah who was very sensitive to the needs of women. So a group of appreciative women had been the ones who had essentially provided for the financial needs of the Messiah and for the men who often accompanied him. But the point to be made for every Muslim woman in the Middle East to be aware of is this. The Injeel reveals that the Messiah was very sensitive to women's needs and and will also be sensitive to women's needs now. When you read any one of the four Injeel accounts of the three years of public service of ALLAH's Messiah you realize there were financial needs of the constantly on the go, traveling band of 13 men counting Jesus. No doubt some of these women would have desired to have been traveling with the small group of men, but the circumstances of their constant travel would have made it impossible for any women to have had an appropriate place to stay. Thus for any women to have ever once traveled with the group of men would have been 100% impractical and inappropriate and definitely and not ALLAH's Will. But one important reality that each of the four male authors emphasized in their accounts is this. The Messiah had frequent interactions with both Jewish women and foreign women. And he treated both groups with compassion and deep respect. He was especially sensitive to women and they truly were aware of his caring. But any book that has been recently written to suggest that he had a secret love affair with any woman was only invented in order to make big money for the creative greedy book author. This brings us to an important point that will be especially sensitive to the Muslim male dominated Middle East and all the more sensitive to the 100% male dominated Muslim Brotherhood. Muslims and everyone else take for granted that the main reason the very clear proclamation of the Messiah's death and being raised by ALLAH in the Qur'an's Al-Im'ran 3:55 is aggressively ignored by Muslims is due to this one key factor that is not true. The An-Nisa 4:157 no death verse and the shubiiha lahum myth from the same verse is only the cover for rejecting ALLAH's decisive proclamation in Al-Im'ran's 3:55 about the Messiah's death and ALLAH raising him to new life. Thus, the bold truth in the Al-Im'ran 3:55 verse is much, much more persuasive about the death and resurrection of the Qur'an's Messiah than the controversial 4:157 verse with its bizarre shubbiiha lahum identity switch myth. Therefore, there is a much more strategic and even sinister reason for male dominated Islam to ignore the absolutely decisive statement by ALLAH Himself on the factual reality of Jesus' death and his resurrection. Obviously for Muslim men to go to the extreme of essentially calling both the Qur'an and ALLAH lairs, they must have some very strong motivation for them to do this. But to call both the Qur'an and ALLAH lairs is exactly and precisely what the Muslim Brotherhood does when that Brotherhood publicly proclaims in their official creed that: 1. ALLAH is our objective. So the Muslim Brotherhood absolutely and publicly proclaims that they are calling both the Qur'an that is supposedly their law, a lair and also ALLAH who is supposedly their main objective and whose honor they would die for, an absolute liar. Why? Because these Brotherhood male leaders are unable to tear out the one certain page in the hundreds of millions of Qur'an's where the Qur'an's 3:55 totally contradicts exactly what the Brotherhood stubbornly insists is true, that the Qur'an's Messiah historically did not die and rise against the written fact that Al-Im'ran 3:55 has ALLAH Himself testifying that the Qur'an's Messiah absolutely did indeed die and rise and that ALLAH Himself caused both key events to occur. How much more clear could the Qur'an's Al-Im'ran 3:55 be? Yet, even though the Brotherhood virtually accuses ALLAH and the Qur'an of openly lying about what historically occurred, the Brotherhood blasphemously sticks with the words of their creed of their honoring both the Qur'an and ALLAH. Their open hypocrisy competes with Israel's hypocrisy in manipulating the Roman's to accuse ALLAH's Messiah and presently competes with Israel's hypocrisy in continuing to colonize the land which they have stolen from disenfranchised Palestinians. Al-Im'ran 3:55 refuses to disappear where it states in the Qur'an, "And when ALLAH said: 'O Isa! I will cause you to die (mutawafiik) and I will raise you to Myself When the men of the Muslim Brotherhood stubbornly stick to their story that the Qur'an teaches that Isa did not die and was not raised up alive by ALLAH, the Brotherhood is definitely saying that the Qur'an and ALLAH are both lying despite the fact that the Qur'an relentlessly states in Al-Im'ran ALLAH's own words that He Himself would cause Isa's death (mutawafiik) and that He Himself would then raise him alive in Al-Im'ran 3:55. So this key verse overwhelmingly exposes that either the Brotherhood is blatantly lying about what is said in its creed. Or, is the Brotherhood saying that both ALLAH and the Qur'an are lying by what ALLAH states in the Qur'an's Al-Im'ran 3:55. The Brotherhood cannot have it both ways. Either it must admit that it is calling both the Qur'an and ALLAH liars. Or it must admit that the Brotherhood itself is lying. Or, the third alternative is that the Brotherhood will humbly admit that it made a terrible error and that the Qur'an does quote ALLAH as stating that the Qur'an's Messiah both died and that ALLAH raised him to new life. So you, O Muslim women, please do not be unconcerned outsiders to this lying by either the Muslim Brotherhood or the Qur'an and ALLAH. So please O Muslim women, for the sake of ALLAH and for the Qur'an and for all Islam, please make a public stand on whether it is the Brotherhood who is trustworthy or whether it is both ALLAH and the Qur'an that must be trusted. Because this is something exceedingly valuable and important to both you and your children's future about whether ALLAH has provided His now Risen and Living Messiah for future generations. But isn't it obvious that it is ALLAH and the Qur'an in Al-Im'ran 3:55 that are both telling the truth and can be trusted about the Qur'an's Messiah's death and being raised up by ALLAH's Wisdom and Might. (Please see clear statement about what ALLAH accomplished through His Wisdom and His Might in An-Nisa 4:158.) Therefore, it is fact that the Qur'an's Messiah did both die and rise so that he is now accessible to encourage Muslim women who welcome him just as he interacted with so many different women from every different age, size, religion, and nationality as he did in his precious times in the Middle East twenty Centuries ago when he so often joyfully interacted with women. Muslim Men Desire To Prevent Muslim Women From Discovering Qur'an's Messiah is Risen and AccessibleSo now I will answer the key question of why the Muslim Brotherhood and other Muslim males take such risks in calling both the Qur'an a liar and ALLAH a liar when ALLAH and the Qur'an obviously mean so much to every male Muslim and every member of the Brotherhood. I do not think each and every male member of the Brotherhood has definitely personally calculated what I am about to declare. But I do think that enough Muslim men have considered this reality that it truly makes sense that many Muslim men are definitely apprehensive about millions of Muslim women discovering the new legitimacy of believing that the Qur'an does teach by way of Al-Im'ran 3:55 that the Qur'an's Risen Messiah is accessible to them today. Thus, I sincerely believe that quite possibly the key reason that Muslim men and especially male leaders adamantly refuse to publicly acknowledge the Qur'an's Messiah's new life is men's apprehension about the new power, confidence, and protection that women will receive through spiritual bonding when they have access to the Qur'an's Messiah. So when many Muslim women gain access to the powerful information of the Risen Messiah's availability to them, when that blessing occurs many Muslim men may assume and fear that they will lose their sometimes unhealthy domination over each of the women who will now be encouraged and made more confident by the compassionate and merciful Qur'an's Messiah. So these men may be concerned that this new appreciation of the Qur'an's Risen Messiah by women will potentially result in Muslim men loosing domination over 750 million Muslim women. Thus, some weak and threatened Muslim men may resist allowing this wonderful blessing to occur for women in their male dominated Muslim culture. So the Qur'an's Messiah now being Risen and accessible will be a major adjustment for those men who have a strong psychological need to be in total control over Muslim women. The hard reality that worries so many Muslim males is that when vast numbers of Muslim men admit for the first time that the Qur'an's Messiah is Risen, his living presence will give Muslim women new confidence. Then many men will interpret women's new confidence as a direct threat to men's often dominating attitude towards women. A Joyful Surprise Benefit for MenBut what the male Muslims do not realize is this. A woman Muslim who senses love from the Qur'an's Risen Messiah will feel more freedom to love her own husband more than she has before. For fear of men suffocates. But in contrast, a loving marriage relationship multiplies love. And more mutual respect in Islamic society will nurture a society that is truly reflective of the honorable values of both ALLAH and the Qur'an Another great benefit and blessing for men emerges from the recognition by both men and women that the Qur'an's Messiah has been raised to new life and thus women are now benefitting from this new spiritual accessibility to him. Muslim Men who themselves had often existed in an artificially dominant role over women due to the men's previously not recognizing the truth of the Qur'an's Al-Im'ran 3:55, so women will now be in a position to receive deserved love from their Qur'an's Risen Messiah so that men and women will now feel more equal. So the man himself is now set free to more fully express his affection and love to his wife so that she will feel more loved by him rather than his wife feeling his domination. For being aware of more equality with men by women creates more mutual respect, mutual acceptance, and ultimately more love. Thus, more mutual love pervades their relationship. This is largely due to the new recognition by both husband and wife of the new Spiritual presence of the Qur'an's Risen Messiah of Al-Im'ran 3:55 and An-Nisa 4:158 in both of their lives. And outside of marriage, the awareness of the Qur'an's Risen Messiah, will encourage more mutual respect between men and women as the Prophet always encouraged. Women Must Be Part of the Answer In IslamAl-Im'ran 3:55 states in the Abdullah Yusuf Ali version in English, "Behold! ALLAH said: 'O Isa! I will cause you to die and raise you to myself.'" An-Nisa 4:158 states: The Dominant Men of Islam Have1. The men have called ALLAH a liar, the ALLAH who said in the Qur'an that he would (mutawafiik) cause Isa's death. 2. The men have called ALLAH a liar, the ALLAH who promised Isa in the Qur'an that He would raise him to new life with Himself. 3. These same men have called the Qur'an a liar because it states in 4:158 and 3:55 that ALLAH raised Isa up. The Muslim men dare to say that ALLAH who in 4:158 is described as Al-Powerful All-Wise, wasted His Power and Wisdom by raising a still Living Messiah up to Himself because they continue to wrongly claim that he never died. So O women, here is the reality regarding present male leadership in Islam concerning the Qur'an's precious Risen Messiah. The Muslim Brotherhood has talked out of both sides of their mouth by saying that ALLAH is their objective and that they would be honored to die for ALLAH. But then they immediately turn around and virtually expose ALLAH for being a liar by saying that the Isa man that ALLAH said that he would definitely raise from death, didn't even die. Yet, ALLAH said that He definitely would (mutawafiik) cause him to die. So it is obvious that the Muslim male leadership who have presented themselves as the leadership of truth, yet they themselves cannot be trusted to always tell the truth about the Qur'an's and about ALLAH's own Risen Messiah. Furthermore, there are no persons more precious to ALLAH than women. Yet, it has become obvious hat the male leadership of Islam does notvalue Muslim women enough to trust them to be aided by the Qur'an's Risen Messiah. Men have vividly shown that they are indeed hiding the Qur'an's Risen Messiah from 750 million Muslim women including female children who are tomorrow's adult Muslim women. The fact that ALLAH's own anointed, compassionate Messiah is spiritually in their midst desiring to commune with women and men and to serve them both has not previously been allowed to be known. So here is the real deal O women of Islam. Muslim men have dramatically proven to you that Islam must have an infusion of new vision and fresh leadership that Islam is not currently receiving because women have been prevented from having input. So women are ALLAH's main answer, at least temporarily, until Muslim men have presented evidence that they have grown up and matured. But even when that occurs there remains a need of shared input. The fact that Saudi women have been put in the position of needing to virtually beg Saudi male religious authorities for the right to drive is only a small symptom of how evil the Muslim male leadership vacuum has become with its unwise choices, but still demanding to dominate. So what is facing women regarding being denied the right of access to ALLAH's and the Qur'an's Risen Messiah is unimaginably greater than women being denied by the male religious authorities in Saudi Arabia the right to drive. So the time is now? Go for it Middle Eastern Muslim Women. Get on the phones. Do some reading on this Web Site. Send e-mails to women's magazines, men's magazine's, political authorities, journalists, religious officials, Imams, radio and T.V. outlets. This emergency demands that you no longer be silent and passive. Let it be known that the women of the Muslim Arab World will now speak out. You are first of all politely requesting. But if need be you will be demanding that ALLAH's and the Qur'an's Risen Messiah be released from his prison of dark silence and into the sun shine of day where deserving Muslim women may have appropriate fellowship with their own Qur'an's Risen Messiah. Go for it courageous, valuable Muslim women. Please don't allow frightened, unfair Muslim men to hold you back. For ALLAH will be with you as you cry out for and even march for the Justice of having access to your precious Book's Risen Messiah. He is eminent both in this world and according to the Qur'an, is eminent (wajeh) also in the world to come. But don't think you must wait for the next world in order to enjoy his fellowship. For he is with you now. In fact, right now you may tell him through your prayer that your heart cries out to know him better. For he is now present with you. back to "Late 2007 - 2010" page
