===Immorality===
===Immorality===


The Qur'an justifies and permits many things which we would consider as immoral in today's world. These include; [[Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Homosexuality|hatred of Homosexuals]], [[Lying for Islam|lying]], [[Pedophilia in the Qur'an|pedophilia]], [[Polygamy in Islam|polygamy]], [[Islamic Antisemitism|racism]], [[Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Dhimmitude|religious discrimination]], [[The_Ultimate_Message_of_the_Qur'an#Surah_9_.28Repentence.29|terrorism]], [[Wife Beating in Islam|violence against women]], [[slavery]] and [[rape]]. Of course, even when presented with the relevant Qur'anic evidence, such statements will be ignored by many as Islamophobic nonsense. However, this does not explain why many practicing Muslims agree. Surely they too are not suffering from Islamophobia? This inconvenient fact exposes [[Islamophobia|the absurdity]] of this popular neologism.
