In doing a bit of research for the previous article (Former Israeli soldier: “we behaved like animals, criminals, thieves” toward Palestinians), I came across a website entitled "Apostates of Islam". The title should be self explanatory, although given the literacy of some of the comments this site receives, I'm not so sure. Anyway, did you know:
Quran 4:34: Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and (as to) those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in their sleeping places and beat them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great.
and a personal testimony from one of the apostates:
“Islam didn’t make sense in many ways, and then I saw the so-called "miracles" of Quran are exaggerated stories. By knowing these 2 facts, I knew Islam was not a religion from God, but a creation of mankind. I believe Islam is not right for me, because I believe humans are born free, and for Allah to impose laws on us is unfair. Sure, breaking the speed limit is also a law but it helps protect other innocent civilians. Following Islamic rules like eating Halal food, Prayer and Hajj doesn’t protect or benefit people in any significant way.”
It is always interesting to read different viewpoints, and this site certainly has plenty of eye opening testimonials and other useful information.
