Oxymoron:
Can a devout Muslim be an American patriot and loyal citizen?
While we know of many devout Muslims who indeed are proud and loyal Americans, as a rule, devout Muslims are often as anti-American as they are Anti-Israel. Here is an article written by a former Muslim in his own words.
Oxymoron: Can a devout Muslim be an American patriot and loyal citizen?
- Theologically, no. Because his allegiance is to Allah, the moon god of Arabia, turned monothistic.
- Scripturally, no. Because his allegiance is to the five pillars of Islam and the Quran.
- Geographically, no. Because his allegiance is to Mecca to which he turns in prayer five times a day.
- Socially, no. Because his allegiance to Islam demands that he make no friends of Christians and Jews (Q. 5:51)
- Politically, no. Because he must submit to the mullah, who teaches annihilation of Israel and destruction of America, the great Satan.
- Domestically, no. Because he is instructed to marry four women and beat and scourge his wife when she disobeys him (Q. 4:34).
- Religiously, no. Because no other religion is accepted by his Allah except Islam—intolerance (Q. 2:256).
- Intellectually, no. Because he cannot accept the American Constitution since it is established on Biblical principles, and he believes the Bible to be corrupt.
- Philosophically, no. Because Islam, Muhammad, and the Quran do not allow freedom of religion and expression. Democracy and Islam cannot co-exist. Every Muslim government is dictatorial or autocratic except Turkey.
- Spiritually, no. Because when we declare "one nation under God," the Christian's God is a triune God, while the Muslim's is one entity called "Allah," who is never a heavenly Father, nor is he ever called "Love" in the 99 excellent names.
