      Aljazera when you do not promote the sickness. You must talk by your heart. Not all in US all around the world islam bring disaster for our humanity and civilization. Islam must be banned by all creature in this planet!!!!
      40 million muslim Indonesia have left islam. They are hiding apart. African 30 million leaving this evil teaching.
      The enemy of islam is not Christian, Hindu, budha, atheis, lgbt, local faith only but the humanity, conscience, moral, ethic, honesty, science. This evil must be kicked out from this planet. Wake up netizen with this cult is poison for our family, local, society, regional, national, global sustainability

      maybe allah has sealed his heart. or he might have disease in his heart, and allah will increase that disease.
      [2.6] Surely those who disbelieve, it being alike to them whether you warn them, or do not warn them, will not believe.
      [2.7] Allah has set a seal upon their hearts and upon their hearing and there is a covering over their eyes, and there is a great punishment for them.
      [2.8] And there are some people who say: We believe in Allah and the last day; and they are not at all believers.
      [2.9] They desire to deceive Allah and those who believe, and they deceive only themselves and they do not perceive.
      [2.10] There is a disease in their hearts, so Allah added to their disease and they shall have a painful chastisement because they lied.

    In the "Islam and the West" speech, King Charles lll talked about the misunderstanding in the west about Islam.
    "If there is much misunderstanding in the West about the nature of Islam, there is also much ignorance about the debt our own culture and civilisation owe to the Islamic world. It is a failure which stems, I think, from the straitjacket of history which we have inherited. The medieval Islamic world, from Central Asia to the shores of the Atlantic, was a world where scholars and men of learning flourished. But because we have tended to see Islam as the enemy of the West, as an alien culture, society and system of belief, we have tended to ignore or erase its great relevance to our own history."
    On how Christianity can learn from Islam, he says: "Islam can teach us today a way of understanding and living in the world which Christianity itself is the poorer for having lost. At the heart of Islam is its preservation of an integral view of the Universe."
    He added that Islam refuses to "separate man and nature, religion and science, mind and matter, and has preserved a metaphysical and unified view of ourselves and the world around us."

    “The league of nations founded by the Prophet of Islam put the principle of international unity and human brotherhood on such universal foundations as to show candle to other nations”. He continues: “The fact is that no nation of the world can show a parallel to what Islam has done toward the realization of the idea of the league of Nations”.

I predict tomorrow's Europe will embrace Islam."

    Dr. John Esposito's belief and sentiment about what could possibly happen in the hereafter after we die resonate exquisitely with what Quran tells us about the Judgement Day. As he said-
    *"I think that there is an afterlife, and I think that, people who lead a good life, whatever their faith or no faith, if they lead a good life, I think they will be at peace".*
    *Quran (**21:47**) وَنَضَعُ الۡمَوَازِيۡنَ الۡقِسۡطَ لِيَوۡمِ الۡقِيٰمَةِ فَلَا تُظۡلَمُ نَـفۡسٌ شَيۡـئًـا​ ؕ وَاِنۡ كَانَ مِثۡقَالَ حَبَّةٍ مِّنۡ خَرۡدَلٍ اَتَيۡنَا بِهَا​ ؕ وَكَفٰى بِنَا حٰسِبِيۡنَ‏*
    *"We shall set up just scales on the Day of Resurrection so that none will be wronged in the least. (We shall bring forth the acts of everyone), even if it be the weight of a grain of mustard seed. We shall suffice as Reckoners".*
    *Quran (2:281) وَٱتَّقُوا۟ يَوْمًۭا تُرْجَعُونَ فِيهِ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ ثُمَّ تُوَفَّىٰ كُلُّ نَفْسٍۢ مَّا كَسَبَتْ وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُونَ*
    *"And have fear of the Day when you shall return to Allah, and every human being shall be fully repaid for whatever (good or evil) he has done, and none shall be wronged".*

    Lamartine, a French philosopher, wrote in his book, History of Turkey:
    “If the grandeur of the design, the pettiness of the means, the immensity of the results, be the three measures of human genius, who would dare to compare humanly the greatest men of modern times to Mahomet? The most famous of them have agitated but armies, laws, empires; they have founded [when they founded anything] but physical potencies, often crumbled to the earth before themselves. Mahomet has recast armies, legislations, empires, peoples, dynasties, with millions of men, throughout a third of the inhabited globe. More than this, he recast altars, gods, religions, ideas, creeds, souls. He has founded upon a book, of which every letter is become a law, a spiritual nationality which embraces peoples of every tongue and race…”[25]
    “Philosopher, orator, apostle, legislator, warrior, conqueror of ideas, restorer of rational dogmas, the founder of twenty terrestrial empires and of one spiritual empire, that is Muhammad. As regards all standards by which human greatness may be measured, we may ask, is there any man greater than he?”
