Ibrahim's "A Brief Illustrated Guide to Understanding Islam"|2=[[File:Brief Illustrated Guide.jpg|155px|link=A Brief Illustrated Guide to Understanding Islam]]|3=This 74-page publication written by I. A. Ibrahim is widely used by Muslims in their efforts to cast Islam in a favorable light, and to gain converts. It is well produced on glossy paper in a soft-cover booklet form, and attractively laid out, with many illustrations. It is available free of charge, can be read on its own dedicated website, and can also be freely downloaded as a pdf file. The campaign to spread Islam is evidently well funded. The real issue, though, is its message. Does it present mainstream Islam accurately?
Chapter 1, “Some Evidence for the Truth of Islam” deals first, and at some length, with the so-called scientific miracles of the Qur'an. Muslims believe that the Qur'an is literally the words of Allah, and apologists now claim that among the revelations Prophet Muhammad received, there was scientific knowledge far in advance of his time. It makes a great deal out of the Qur'an’s occasional references to natural phenomena, when in reality these are either everyday observations, known from ancient times, or are scientifically incorrect.

Fabricated Anti-Muslim Hate Crimes‎

Hatecrimes.JPG

In attempting to deceive people into believing that they are being persecuted around the world for their faith, many Muslims have been caught fabricating anti-Muslim hate crimes. This is particularly important to some of them, hoping to paint the persecutor as the persecuted and shifting focus away from the millions who face real persecution at the hands of Islam. According to FBI hate-crime statistics, hate crimes directed against Muslims "remain relatively rare" in the United states, with gays, lesbians and caucasians more frequently a target than the followers of Islam. Jewish victims of hate crimes also outnumber Muslim victims by a ratio of almost 9 to 1, and anti-Muslim incidents only account for a tiny 1.3% of all hate crimes. Even anti-Christian (Catholic/Protestant) incidents outnumber those perpetrated against Muslims in America. (read more)
