Islam watch
Islam
Watch is a website set up by a group of
Muslim apostates who left Islam out of their
own conviction when they discovered that
Islam is not a religion at all. Here, one of
its founders,
M A
Khan, explains their mission and
describes the challenge ahead for Muslims
and non-Muslims alike.
Most of us took a
prolonged period of time to study, evaluate,
reflect on and contemplate this religion of
our birth – Islam. Having meticulously
scrutinised Islam, we concluded that it is
not a religion of peace at all, as touted by
smooth-talking, self-serving Muslims and
their apologists from non-Muslim
backgrounds. The core of Islam – that is,
the Qur’an, Hadis and sharia – is filled
with unbounded hatred for the unbelievers,
unbelievably intolerant toward them and
extremely cruel and merciless to Muslims who
dare to deviate an iota from its doctrine.

 |
We realised that Islam is
beyond alteration because Muslims – who
attempt to modernise and reform its
unremitting bigotry, irrational rituals and
its cruel and draconian punitive measures –
are targeted for annihilation. Our verdict
was that the only way to escape from the
tyranny of Islam is to leave it altogether.
We have, therefore, discarded Islam from our
lives so that we can be free to enjoy a
normal, pleasant and humane life in complete
harmony with all peoples on Earth,
irrespective of their religion, race or
creed.
Having thoroughly
understood – through our meticulous
investigation of Islam, lasting years to
decades – that Islam was nothing but a lie,
most of us have left Islam silently because
of the fear for our lives. As Islamic
terrorism and violence overwhelms the world,
particularly in the post-9/11 years, we felt
that it’s a responsibility upon us to make
world’s 1.4 billion Muslims aware of the
falsity of their religion and its cruel
nature so that they can make informed choice
and leave Islam to live with love, respect
and harmony with rest of humanity.
We also felt it incumbent
upon us to make the non-Muslim world aware
of the reality of Islam and take timely
precautionary measures against this religion
of terror, hate and mayhem. We tell the
world that the ongoing terrorism, unleashed
by Islamic militants, is not an aberration
from the so-called “peaceful religion of
Islam”: instead, it is the real Islam
preached and practised by its founder,
Prophet Muhammad. A thorough study of the
Qur’an and prophetic tradition (Hadith,
Sunnah) makes it clear.

aka: The 'holy'
Qur'an |
Islam Watch is founded by
a few Muslim apostates. Hailing mainly from
South Asia, some of us left Islam after
9/11; others have been apostates since
before that. We aim to establish that Islam
is false. We feel that it needs to be
emasculated, marginalised or eliminated
altogether, if the Muslim world wants to
come out of its current backwardness and
quagmire, characterised by poverty,
corruption, illiteracy, violence, misrule
and tyranny, into which it has been thrown
due to Islamic indoctrination.
Our challenge
We challenge
Muslims to debate on these assertions:
We assert that Islam
is not a religion of peace but is
founded on war, violence, terrorism,
hate and injustice.
We affirm that Islam
is a false religion.
We conclude that
Islam is responsible for rampant
corruption, widespread misrule,
implausible tyranny, mindless terrorism,
unrelenting violence and pervasive
social injustice in the Muslim world.
Our mission
Our ultimate aim is to
guide Muslims out of the fold of Islam. We
also expect that critical voice against
Islam will render it somewhat benign.
We plan to achieve our
goals in the following ways:
-
We will criticise
and expose the real truth about
Islam without minding about any
political correctness, whatsoever.
-
We will establish
that Islam is false, that it is not
revealed by any god, but was created
by the prophet Muhammad himself to
fulfil his greed, ego and ambition.
-
We will prove
that Islam has nothing to do with
peace: instead, it is a dangerous
cult founded through violence,
terror, plunder and extreme
injustice by its founder, Muhammad.
-
We will prove
that Islam is incompatible with the
modern world. Islamic precepts stand
in contravention of the concept of
democracy, tolerance, human rights
and gender equality and hence are
dangerous for modern civilisation.
-
We will
demonstrate that Islamic terrorism,
as witnessed today, is sanctioned by
Islam. Terrorists did not hijack
Islam: Islam itself has hijacked
some otherwise good human beings and
turned them into machines for
terror, murder and destruction.
-
We will also
awaken the non-Muslim world,
especially the West, about the
short-term and long-term dangers of
Islam to their good and benevolent
society.
-
As nontheistic
humanists, we strongly affirm that
human life should be guided by human
conscience, wisdom and judgement
based on the Golden Rules. This is
an ever-changing, dynamic, process.
As people gain new experience,
scientific knowledge and insights
into the workings of the world and
human life, our ethical wisdom will
change. Opposed to religious
doctrines, we believe that no
particular set of rules or values
should be considered absolute and
universal. We propagate the
sentiment, “Live your own life and
let other live theirs, as long as
they don’t harm and cause nuisance
to others.”
-
Islam Watch will
be dominated by ex-Muslim and
moderate Muslim writers. We will
make some room for non-Muslim
authors to help us gauge how the
non-Muslim world grasps the truth
about Islam.
-
To create a
critical mass of critics of Islam
from Muslim backgrounds, one of our
missions will be to create new
writers, critical of Islam, from
among Muslims. We will put maximum
effort into nurturing these nascent
talents. To this end, we will urge
Muslim writers to pen their critical
thoughts on Islam, regardless of how
good they are, and we will try to
accommodate them on our website.
-
Although Islam
Watch has been launched by
ex-Muslims coming mainly from South
Asia, we aim to connect to Muslim
apostates and critics from all
corners of the world. We encourage
them from all parts of the world to
voice their opinions through Islam
Watch.
-
Islam Watch will
publish a comprehensive daily news
concerning Islam from all corners of
the world so as to keep our readers
updated with the state of affairs of
Islam worldwide. This, we hope, will
transform Islam Watch into a unique
hub for readers interested in the
truth and reality of Islam from all
corners of the world.
-
We will publish a
select number of op-ed/articles of
non-Muslim authors of strongly
secular conviction. Selection of
articles by non-Muslim authors would
be solely at discretion of the
editors.
We have launched Islam
Watch to expose the real Islam – the
Islam that is determined to replace the
modern civilisation with seventh-century
Arab Bedouin barbarism, peddled as the true
Islamic civilisation. Let the world watch
Islam through
Islam
Watch – and be warned!
M A
Khan is an ex-Muslim and a liberal
humanist. He is the author of Islamic Jihad: A Legacy of Forced
Conversion, Imperialism and Slavery.
He believes that Islam
Watch, now in operation for three years and
currently with more than 4,000 unique
visitors daily and growing steadily, is
poised to become a leading freethinking
initiative by ex-Muslims for the
intellectual enlightenment of Muslims.
