The Arab-Islamic Imperialism Part 1

One of the best and well researched works on how Arab Islamic imperialism and the Islamic Jihad destroys and exploits and its history of expansion. This is another book written by independent Muslim intellectuals, and it deserves to be translated into Amharic, Tigrinya, Somali and Orromifa. This book is already translated into more than 30 languages.
This will show you how the Arab Islamic imperialism led by Egypt and Saudi Arabia are still trying to control the Horn of Africa by destroying languages, identity and history as they did in many parts of the world in Sudan and in Ethiopia during the Islamic Jihadi wars of Ahmed Gragn, the Ottoman Turks and the Egyptian invasions.
This is excerpt from Islamic Jihad: A Legacy of Forced Conversion, Imperialism and Slavery (by MA Khan)

‘(Allah) hath made you (Muslims) His agents, inheritors of the
earth’ and ‘promised to… make them rulers in the earth.’

[Allah, Quran 24:55, 6:165]

‘And fight them on until… there prevail justice and faith in Allah
altogether and everywhere.’

[Allah, Quran 8:39]
Citizens of former colonies generally harbor animosity toward present-day European
countries because of latter’s past colonial rule. Th is ill-feeling continues to feature
prominently in their collective national psyche and in intellectual, literary and
political discourse. European nations had colonized countries in Asia, Africa, South
America and Australasia without racial or religious discrimination. But their colonial
past continues to incite the strongest anger and hatred amongst Muslims.
The predominantly non-Muslim former colonies, such as India, Singapore,
Hong Kong, Philippines, Vietnam, South Africa, and Brazil among others—leaving
aside their resentment for the past colonial injustices—have moved on in a mature
fashion to forge valuable economic, political, educational and cultural ties with their
former colonial masters. This prudent approach has enabled them to make significant
developmental gains and progress since achieving independence. South Korea,
for example, has managed to overcome the resentment against her former brutal colonial
master Japan (1910–45) and has forged a strong alliance with the latter, instead. On
the other hand, the Muslim world has busied itself in the futile exercise of constantly
harking back to the past colonial wrongs. Instead of looking inward to identify the
cause of their hopeless current plight, they find it convenient to hold the past colonial
masters responsible for all their present shortcomings and failures.
Anti-colonial resentment remains so intense amongst Muslims that it plays
a critical role in fuelling the ongoing anti-West hatred and violence amongst
Islamic radicals. According to playwright and performer Adam Broinowski, suicide
bombing by Muslim extremists is associated with ‘the legacy of colonialism and the
resentments’ against it and ‘probably involves a protest against (past) imperialism.’i
The legacy of European colonialism across the continents ‘has helped produce large,
monolithic and increasingly restive Islamic populations with a multi-generational
sense of grievance,’ which fuels homegrown terrorism in the U.S. and Europe, thinks
Jon Perr.ii
However, it is surprising that Muslims refuse to acknowledge that their own
past was not only imperialist but also no less brutal and devastating to the people
whom they fell upon. ‘Islam offers a faith untainted by colonialism and racism,’
claims Rocky Davis, aka, Shaheed Malik, an Australian Aboriginal convert to Islam.
According to him, ‘the difference between the Muslim and Christian faiths: one is
for the oppressed and one’s for the oppressor, one’s for the colonizer and one for the
colonized.’iii He told the ABC Radio that,

Christianity is a culture of invasion, and if anyone can tell me that it’s
not, I need people to openly debate whether it be on live TV or in front
of an audience, that Christianity was used as a weapon to invade all the
world’s indigenous peoples, Canadian Indians will tell you, Maoris will
tell you, Cook Islands will tell you, Africans will tell you, the English
used Christianity to invade and conquer and enslave… And I was never
invaded by a Muslim country. Everywhere the Christians went, they
plundered and they robbed and they murdered and they enslaved, and
they raped.

The Muslim Arabs, who were mostly uncultured lawless desert Bedouins, launched
a massive campaign of ruthless conquest of the world from the Arabian Peninsula
in the 630s. Within a century, they had established a huge kingdom spanning vast
tracts of Asia, the entire Middle East, North Africa, and Spain. In the process, they
exterminated a great multitude of people through mass slaughter, destroyed great
civilizations of the time, and obliterated the cultural heritage of many peoples forever.
Th is violent and destructive aspect of Islamic expansionism, which was followed by
the centuries of devastating colonial rule, will be discussed in this chapter.

What readers said about the book Islamic Jihad: A Legacy of Forced Conversion, Imperialism and Slavery (by MA Khan)
by MA Khan 17 Feb, 2009


Allan Hansen:

Dear M.A. Khan. I am now reading your masterpiece: Islamic Jihad. It's the best I've read since Why I am not a Muslim (Ibn Warraq, 1995)

I am trying if I can persuade a Danish historian, journalist, writer and president of Freedom of Speech foundation, Lars Hedegaard, to translate your book into Danish. Lars Hedegaard is the translator of Why I am not a Muslim.

Aasma Riaz:

Thank you so much for your book "Islamic Jihad" and showing me the "Big Picture". For 7-8 days, I was glued to your book, absorbing so much information that I did not know existed. You have crisply covered so much in your book and quoted historical references extensively. I am just overwhelmed with different emotions after reading your book. I will take a printout of your book, cover it with spiral binding and a laminated cover, and circulate it cautiously within my immediate circles. That is the very least I can do in terms of doing justice to such a priceless tome.

Randall E Otto:

I'm about halfway through the book and find it meticulously detailed in explaining the violent and often barbaric expansionism of Islam historically. Thanks for providing us with this detailed analysis of the history of Islamic imperialism.

Dr Anil K Vajpayee:

"I read your book on Islamic jihad. I think it is one of the best books I ever read on Islam. It is highly informative and insightful."

Slant Right Blog:

"Islamic Jihad is so incredibly documented that it leaves little room to criticize the book for the accuracy of the Islamic exposé. So do not tackle this book for reading enjoyment, rather engulf the book to educate your self on the actual nature of Islam’s past to understand its present and predict its future."

Ayesha Ahmed:

"Your book is amazing, you have done a fantastic job. The info I found in it I had never seen before. Actually I have started going over it again. Only other books I read twice previously were Craig Winn's Prophet of Doom and Ali Sina's Understanding Mohammad. I congratulate you on writing a masterpieace.."

"Mr Khan: I congratulate you on your excellent book, which I finished reading last week. Although I have read several good books on similar topics, including Dr. Bostom's book "Legacy of Jihad" and Mr Ghosh's book "Islam and Kafir" but your book takes the cake. It is a "must read" for Muslims and non-Muslims."

M. Sharif:

I have bought your book, Islamic Jihad, from the Amazon and found the book to be extremely good and informative.

Bill Warner (scholar of Islam and director of Center for the Study of Political Islam):

I am only half-way through your book, Islamic Jihad, but it is of such magnitude that I must congratulate on an extraordinary work. Your work is in depth and has a great scope. Much of the historical material is largely unknown and greatly needed. I believe that you have done a remarkable job on slavery. Your work is a blessing to humanity.

S. Z. Manik

I have just finished 'Islamic Jihad: A Legacy of Forced Conversion, Imperialism, and Slavery'. I congratulate you upon your valuable contribution. I would call it a masterpiece and great contribution to humanity... Actually like a spellbound man I have gone through your book. Now I will call it a mighty weapon against Islam.

C. C Chrappa (at Amazon.com)

A Must Read
Khan's work stands out from the field... a book that's a goldmine... With Khan's book, you will have solid amateur knowledge not only of Islamic history, but Islamic theology as well. For that reason, it is a threat to those who try to keep us blinkered about the reality of Jihad. And to open eyes was Khan's intention. He has succeeded magnificently... Khan depicts the life of Muhammad as a microcosm of Islamic doctrine and history, and he does so brilliantly.

I cannot recommend this book highly enough. Read it and learn.

Objective Reader, Amazon.com

With this book, M A Khan joins the ranks of luminaries like Ibn Warraq, Ali Sina, Bat Yeor and Geert Wilders.

Abul Kasem:

Khan’s work is very scholarly, persuasive and cogent. The language is simple, easy to understand, and engaging. Once started reading, readers would feel an urge to finish the book. No serious readers of Islam should ignore this book. Read this book and you will grasp why the Islamic Jihadis are doing what they are doing. Readers of the subcontinent (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh), especially Muslims, will be shocked at the suffering their ancestors suffered at the hands of Muslim invaders from the Middle East and Central Asia. The compelling account of many invasions and subsequent incursions will force them to eagerly search their roots. Readers from elsewhere in the Muslims world, and even Europe and America, would also be able make a connection as to how Islam impacted lives of their ancestors.

This book is also a must read for today’s political leaders—both Muslim and non-Muslim—to shake off their apathy towards the mortal danger of ascendant Islamic radicalism.

Mohammad Asghar:

The book, "Islamic Jihad: A Legacy of Forced Conversion, Imperialism and Slavery", is M. A. Khan's gift to mankind. It is an essential read for all of us, for it depicts the true nature of Islam and the serious threat it poses to the safety and well-being of non-Muslims. I thank the author for giving us such a precious gift.

Prof. Sami Alrabaa, author of Karin in Saudi Arabia

"I read your book and found it fascinating. It is one of those few books which everybody, Muslims and non-Muslims, must read. It is objective and balanced. For example, when you discuss how moderates interpret Jihad and how radical/militant Muslims interpret it.

“Islamic Jihad” is a comprehensive reference which entails in detail lots of facts about Islam and its prophet, in historical and current times. It is very well documented. All that makes it a must read to all of those who want to understand the driving force behind Jihad and terror."

Dr. Mervyn Brendle, James Cook University, (Australia)

“I have read some sections and… look forward to reading it in some detail. It appears to be a substantial addition to the vital work underway in expanding our understanding of the history, nature, and danger of the global jihadi movement.”

Ibn Warraq, author of Why I Am Not a Muslim

This book, I believe, will be a very important contribution for making a thorough understanding of the rising challenges both Muslim and non-Muslim world faces from Islamic extremists."

Nonie Darwish, author of Now They Call Me Infidel

"This is a must read book, very important and eloquently written, that sheds light on the violent imperialist nature of jihad: a main doctrine in Islam that can only be accomplished at the expense of violating human rights of non-Muslims as well as Muslims."

Nausheen Najib Rehman (Rehman is translating the book)

"I had the good fortune of reading this magnum opus. The author demonstrates beyond any vestige of doubt with extensive documentation that the Jihadi violence and terrorism, which grips our world, comes from the very heart of Islam. This is a "must read book" for all. The author (M. A. Khan) and Dr. Ali Sina are like two barrel-guns against the threat of Jihad, the world faces."

Mumin Salih (writer)

Your book is well researched and scholarly written. Its strength is in its style, rich insight, depth of analysis and the fact that it is well-sourced from Islamic own literature, including the Quran... The book also presents powerful arguments and critical examination of the teachings of Islam and its sanctioning of jihad. It brings to light the reality of jihad and the horrors of surrendering to its evil known as dhimmitude.

Your book is an essential reading for all those who are interested in understanding the menace of jihad.

Amar Khan

I have read half of the book. it is very versatile. And covering about all the aspect from history and contemporary. A must read book, indeed. One more thing, before start reading it, finish your works, because once you start reading, it will not let you move.......

If you're comfortable with your Christianity, why concern about what Muslim views are? Because when someone is in the dark, he wants other people to be in the dark as well so he can feel better.

The Arab-Islamic Imperialism Part 1

to be conquered by them (and then to be like them) is still, in the

Believe me I like this dude. Whenever he ridicules Islam, I love Islam more.

This dude is just pasting what he reads in the islamophobic sites.

Who is this dude who poses as roha sometimes as well?

He is just a poor abyssinian who climbed down from a remote rocky mountain village and made it to sudan chewing his sugarcane (the only food he has) wrapped in lice infested gabi made it to sudan, and from khartoum, sudan he reached the west.

So is his brief biography,

Now, he is ridiculing islam, a religion blessed with over 1.8 billion adherents.

In conclusion,

I like you, keep it up ridiculing islam. The more you redicule islam the more muslims will love islam. It is a waste of time for you aite neo-crusader albeit you are Qomal. nobody will take you seriously.

ISLAMIC IMPERIALISM: QURANIC COMMANDS & PROPHETIC MODEL part 2
Colonialism can be described as a system of governance in which powerful states
establish sovereignty over weaker states or peoples for exploiting the wealth—
resources, labor and market—of the ruled. It also often degrades latter’s sociopolitical
norms and cultural values. Imperialism, although used interchangeably with
colonialism, refers more specifi cally to the political power and control exercised by
powerful states over weaker ones either by indirect infl uence or by direct military
power. Colonialism, therefore, is of wider scope in which imperialism is imbedded.
The Quran entails an ideology for establishing a religio-political imperial state
on the global scale through Jihad or holy war. Islam is a religious, social and political
creed—all imbedded in one—a complete way of life. Allah commands Muslims
to wage ceaseless Jihad, comprising violent raids and wars, against the infidels for
establishing the all-encompassing religious-social-political system of Islam over the
whole earth. For example, the Quran commands:
1. ‘And fi ght them (the infi dels) on until there is no more
Tumult or oppression [non-Islamic faiths], and there
prevail justice and faith in Allah’ [Quran 2.193].
2. ‘And fi ght them on until there is no more tumult
or oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in
Allah altogether and everywhere’ [Quran 8.39].
To Allah belongs the heaven and earth and everything in it, says the Quran [24:42,
34:1]. Allah holds the supreme and absolute authority over the heaven and earth
[Quran 57:5, 67:1] and have made Muslims the inheritor of the latter for establishing
a global Islamic rule. Th e Quran says: ‘(Allah) hath made you (His) agents, inheritors
of the earth’ [Quran 6:165] and that ‘has promised to… make them rulers in the
earth’ [Quran 24:55]. As Muslims wage Jihad against the infi dels, Allah will come to
their assistance to help them acquire their lands gradually and will eventually bring
the whole earth under their control; Allah’s global caliphate will, thus, be realized:
1. ‘Do they (the infi dels) not see that We are bringing destruction
upon their land by curtailing it of its sides?’ [Quran 13:41]
2. ‘…See they (the infi dels) not that We gradually reduce the land
(in their control) from its outlying borders?’ [Quran 21.44]
Allah would help Muslims, if need be, by destroying the communities of the
unyielding infi dels to appropriate their land, of course, to hand it over to Muslims:
And how many a community have We destroyed that was thankless for its
means of livelihood! And yonder are their dwellings, which have not been
inhabited after them save a little. And We, even We, were the inheritors.
[Quran 28.58]
Allah made good of these lofty promises, too. It was Allah, Who helped Muslims
wrestle the lands of Jewish tribes of Medina. Allah claims that He helped Muslims
acquire the lands and properties of Banu Qaynuqa and Banu Nadir by expelling them
from their lands: ‘(Allah) it is Who hath caused those of the People of the Scripture
(Banu Nadir Jews etc.) who disbelieved to go forth from their homes unto the fi rst
exile’ by casting terror in their hearts and bestowed whatever Allah had grabbed
from them as spoil (the land and properties) unto His messenger [Quran 59:2–6].
As concerns the Jewish tribe of Banu Qurayza, ‘Allah did take them down from
their strongholds and cast terror into their hearts’ enabling Muslims slay some of
them and make the rest prisoners [Quran 33:26] and ‘made you (Muslims) heirs of
their lands, their houses, and their goods, and of a land which ye had not frequented
(before)’ [Quran 33:27]. (p. 147-150.5)
