1 WHAT IS ISLAM
The word islam means submission. Islam is a system of beliefs originated by Muhammad who lived in Arabia from 570 to 633 AD.
Central to this belief system is the claim by Muhammad that he believed the angel Gabriel appeared to him in a cave at Hira situated a few miles from Mecca in the month of Ramadan in 610 AD when he was 40 years of age.
The word islam means submission. Islam is a system of beliefs originated by Muhammad who lived in Arabia from 570 to 633 AD.
Central to this belief system is the claim by Muhammad that he believed the angel Gabriel appeared to him in a cave at Hira situated a few miles from Mecca in the month of Ramadan in 610 AD when he was 40 years of age.
The material from this claim and subsequent numerous repeated appearances of Gabriel to Muhammad revealing the words of Allah was recorded in a 114 chapter document named the Qur’an.
Further material was recorded in the Hadith which is a compilation of witnessed accounts of what Muhammad said during his life after 610 AD. The most authoritative and complete version of the Hadith was compiled by Sahih Bukhari (also known as Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Ismail bin Ibrahim al-Mughira al-Jafai) who lived some 200 years after the death of Muhammad.
Muhammad’s first vision involved the presence of what Muhammad thought was the angel Gabriel pressing him three times and on each release, commanding him to read. After which the angel said,
“Read in the name of your Lord. Who creates. He created man from a clot. Read, by your most generous Lord.
Who taught by the pen.
He taught man what he did not know.” (Sura 96, verses 1-5 of Al-Qur’an)
Subsequently, Muhammad reported another vision. He saw what he thought was the same angel who appeared to him in the cave at Hira, sitting on a chair between the earth and the sky. He was terrified and returned home and told Khadija, his first wife, “Wrap me” After which, he claimed that Allah revealed to him the following verses of the Qur’an: “O Enrobed one. Arise and warn.
Glorify your Lord. And purify your garments.
And abandon abomination.”
(Sura 74, verses 1-5 of Al-Qur’an)
“Read in the name of your Lord. Who creates. He created man from a clot. Read, by your most generous Lord.
Who taught by the pen.
He taught man what he did not know.” (Sura 96, verses 1-5 of Al-Qur’an)

(Sura 74, verses 1-5 of Al-Qur’an)
I believe Muhammad sincerely believed that he actually saw the angel Gabriel. However, I believe that the angel was not Gabriel. I believe the angel was a demon, probably Satan himself.
I believe Muhammad was deceived by a demon who subsequently possessed his mind, changed him and made use of him to deceive mankind into worshipping a pagan idol named Allah in place of the one true God of Abraham called El ( El-Elyon, Elohim).
2 WHO IS ALLAH
Some 3000 years BC, in the Tigris and Euphrates river basin, there was an ancient civilization called Sumer, with its people called Sumerians.
Some 3000 years BC, in the Tigris and Euphrates river basin, there was an ancient civilization called Sumer, with its people called Sumerians.
From archaeological findings of cuneiform engravings, there was a pagan idol named Lil. The name was subsequently modified to Enlil as well as Ramman-ilani.
This Ramman idol was transported via trade routes to India to become the Brahman of Vedic literature, subsequently forming the Hindu religion.
The pagan idol remaining in the land of origin became known as Baal of Babylon. By trade route spread, this pagan idol became arabicised into the name Al-ilah. Al-ilah also had a consort pagan idol named Al-ilat.
With time, Al-ilah became shortened to Al-lah and then Allah.
The name Allah became known as the generic name for god.
The consort Al-ilat became known as Al-lat. Al-lat is one of the pagan idols found in the Ka’bah shrine in Mecca referred to in the Satanic verses of Sura 53 of the Qur’an.
Al-ilah was the Babylonian moon god whose symbol was the crescent moon. Hence Islam uses the crescent moon as it's symbol. The crescent moon adorns every place where Allah is worshipped.
Hence the name Allah is not the same name used by Abraham for God which should be El. Even the name of Abraham’s son from Hagar is named after El as Ishma-el. Ishmael is purportedly the original father of the Arabs.
I believe Satan’s deception is in hijacking the ‘one god’ concept of Judaism and Christianity with the use of the name Allah as the ‘one god’ rather than the genuine name El. This deception is rendered more persuasive by using the simplistic one entity Allah rather than the three entity Holy Trinity concept of Christianity.
3 DEMON POSSESSION
Hindu yogis and Buddhist monks have been reported to spend long solitary periods of meditation in caves. I believe during these yogic meditations, the individual empties himself of all worldly thoughts and preoccupations.
Hindu yogis and Buddhist monks have been reported to spend long solitary periods of meditation in caves. I believe during these yogic meditations, the individual empties himself of all worldly thoughts and preoccupations.
In this blank state, the individual becomes susceptible to a demon entering his mind, spiritually deceiving him and taking over control of his spirit.
Demons are spirits. I believe they are fallen angels, chief among whom is Satan. Once a demon possesses an individual, the individual becomes the demon’s slave. The demon will alter the individual’s beliefs and consequently his attitude and behavior.
The demon possessed individual will almost invariably manifest the signature of Satan which is deception.4 DEMON POSSESSION OF MUHAMMED
Muhammad himself admitted that he was possessed by a devil:
‘Anas reported that Gabriel appeared before the Apostle of Allah (Muhammad), while he was playing with some boys. Gabriel took him, laid him down, pierced his heart, and took out a clot of blood. Then he said, “This is the portion of you possessed of a devil.” Next, he washed it in a gold cup with water from the well Zamzam. Thereafter sewed him up and took him back to where he found him…’ (Attended by Muslim. Al-Hadis, Volume 4 page 367)
Muhammad himself admitted that he was possessed by Satan at one time:
‘Have you, then, seen Al-Lat and Al-Uzza?
And Manat, the third one, the other?
These are exalted females (sublime ones), Mounting nearer and nearer to Allah
And truly their intercession may be expected. ( Al-Qur’an, Sura 53 verse19-20, and the Satanic verses in bold letters)
‘Have you, then, seen Al-Lat and Al-Uzza?
And Manat, the third one, the other?
These are exalted females (sublime ones), Mounting nearer and nearer to Allah
And truly their intercession may be expected. ( Al-Qur’an, Sura 53 verse19-20, and the Satanic verses in bold letters)
The Satanic verses were present in the original version of the Qur’an when Muhammad was trying to woo the Meccans who believed in many gods including the pagan idols Al-Lat, Al-Uzza and Manat.
Later on, when he was in a more commanding position, he conveniently edited out these embarrassing verses, admitting that they were inspired in him by Satan. “We have not sent a messenger or prophet before you but when he recited, the Devil would intrude into his recitation. (Al-Qur’an. Sura 22 verse 53) Muhammad admitted that he had a Jinn (demon) up his nose.(Al-Hadis. Volume 4, Book 54, No.516) Muhammed said that bad dreams are from Satan.
(Al-Hadis. Volume 4, Book 54, No. 513) Muhammad had his own resident demon, the one-eyed Dajjal. (Al-Hadis. Volume 3, page 803)
5 MUHAMMAD THE DIVINE
Muhammad exalted himself to be part of the Islamic godhead when he referred to Allah in the plural form:
‘So turn away from him who has given up Our mention and only desires the patient life.’ (Al-Qur’an. Sura 53, verse 29)Muhammad claimed that he was the truth, a claim that only deity can claim.
‘Abu Qatada reported that the Messenger of Allah said,
“Whoever has seen me has indeed seen the truth” Agreed. (Al-Hadis, Volume 2, page 102)Compare this with what Jesus said in John 14:6 “I am the way, the truth and the life:
no man comes to the Father but by meMuhammad also exalted himself as perfect and never in error.
‘By the star when it goes down,
Your Company has not gone astray nor erred,
(Al-Qur’an. Sura 53, verse 1-2)The deification of Muhammad is also contained in the Hadith. ‘Abu Hurairah reported from the Holy Prophet who said,
“Verrily, I am a mercy that has been raised up”
Attested by Darimi and Rahaqi.Even a stone was claimed by Muhammad to greet him.
Jabber-b-Samorah reported that the Apostle of Allah said: “Verrily I know certainly of a stone at Mecca which used to greet me before prophethood.
Surely I recognize it even now”
Attested by Muslim.
(Al-Hadis. Volume 4, page 367-368)Compare this with what Jesus said in Luke, Chapter 19, verse 40: “I tell you,” he replied, “if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out.”The deity of Muhammad is reinforced by the Egyptian mystic Darimi who claimed that Muhammad was already in existence before the creation of Adam.
‘Darimi reported that the Messenger of Allah said,
“The first light which Allah created was my light.”When Adam got to heaven, he found Muhammad’s name on Allah’s throne and engraved everywhere. Adam asked, “Who then is this Muhammad?”
Allah answered. “He is your descendent, and but for him, I should not have created you.”
Allah rebuked Adam for not praying to Muhammad.’Darimi also reported, “All of creation was made of the substance of Muhammad”
6 MUHAMMAD THE GURU
A guru is a man who claims divine commission. His actions reveal that his objective is to gather a following of people who are totally beholden to him for every detail of how life should be lived. He exalts himself and keeps his god mysterious, distant and unknowable, encouraging his followers to come to himself for direction.
The guru system is well established in Hindu beliefs and practices. A yogi first exalts his own teacher, even to the extent of a deity so that he himself role-models to his followers to exalt him and venerate every word that proceeds from his mouth and venerate the very ground that he has walked upon.
The exaltation of Muhammad into a guru is reflected in his sweat being described as fragrant (Al-Hadis. Volume 4, page 337), and that he was more beautiful than the moon ( Al-Hadis. Volume 4, page 339).
The veneration given to the sayings of Muhammad in the Hadith is typical of the guru archetype.
By exalting himself as perfect, Muhammad sets the stage for his followers to venerate him. (Al-Hadis, Volume 4, Page 316, 323 and 328)
One of the methods gurus use to control his followers is the use of repetitive ritual movements and chanting of words of obeisance to his deity.
This is typified in the Salat, the five times a day ritualistic prostration and chanting of praises to Allah while facing toward the Ka’ba in Mecca.
7 DECEPTION IS THE SIGNATURE OF SATAN
God created angels to fellowship with. I believe God gave free choice to angels, even the choice to disobey. Lucifer, the then worship- leader decided to disobey and persuaded one third of the angels to rebel. They were then cast out of heaven. Lucifer became Satan, the accuser of the brethren.
God created man to fellowship with. God gave man dominion over the earth.
The first action of Satan to Adam and Eve was deception.
To deceive is to swindle, hoax, cheat, mislead, dupe, fool, or entrap.
Satan possessed the serpent and duped Eve and Adam into eating the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, the one which God specifically forbade them to eat. (Genesis 3:1-7)
By this hoax, Satan cheated mankind of his right standing with God and dominion over the earth. Instead, mankind, including myself came under dominion of Satan and was headed for certain death.
In the ‘fallen’ state, I am unable to fellowship with God. However, God still wanted to fellowship with me.
The triune Godhead sent a part of Himself, Jesus to earth as a man to die and bear the total punishment for the disobedience (sin) of all of mankind so that in believing in this sacrifice, my fallen spiritual self will die and become reborn as a brother or sister of Christ Jesus.
As a new creation (2Corinthians 5:17), I can directly fellowship with God by casting all my cares to Him, secure in the belief that I have absolute right-standing with Him ( Psalm 55:22, 1 Peter 5:7)
When I believe in Jesus as my savior, I am freed from bondage to Satan. Satan is powerless to prevent me from believing the good news of the divine exchange.
What he can do is to deceive me with alternative routes to God like Hinduism, Buddhism, New Age and Islam. Satan inspired Hinduism and Buddhism with the core belief of Karma and reincarnation. The concept of reincarnation has been debunked by the concept of demonic spirit possession explaining all the ‘evidence’ proffered for reincarnation.
Hence reincarnation is a lie and Hinduism, Buddhism, and New Age are deceptions. They bear the signature of Satan, which is deception. With the death burial and resurrection of Jesus, Satan has had been stripped of his power over me and over anyone else who believe in the risen Jesus Christ. This is because at the name of Jesus every name will bow, including the name, Satan (Philippians 2:10).
8 THE DECEPTION OF ISLAM
Muhammad had knowledge of the Holy Bible from Waraqah, the cousin of his first wife, Khadijah.
When Muhammad frequented the cave at Hira to meditate, I believe that the fallen angel Satan saw an opportunity to execute his diabolical deception. I believe the fallen angel Satan appeared to Muhammad and thoroughly deceived Muhammad into believing that the he was Gabriel.
Muhammad’s description of experiencing forcible pressure from ‘Gabriel’, commanding him to recite, is a graphic description of demon possession.
Thereafter, having duped Muhammad into believing that he is the apostle of the creator, Satan fully possessed Muhammad and inspired in Muhammad a series of messages which were compiled into the Qur’an.
In order to be credible, the messages contained some truthful information like the mention that Jesus was of virgin birth and that Jesus performed miracles. However, Satan inserted numerous lies to deceive me and you.
The main lies are the following:
The first lie is the name of The Creator, whom he called Allah. Although cited as the God of Abraham, the name Allah is actually a derivation of Al-ilah, which is derived from Lil, the pagan idol of ancient Sumeria. The true name of the God of Abraham is El or El-Elyon contained in the Torah.
I believe to substitute the pagan idol name Allah for El when denoting God the Creator is to blaspheme in a most heinous way. How has this occurred? I believe Satan has insidiously deceived the pagan ancient Arabs to use the name ilah to denote the generic word ‘god’. Since then, the Arabic language has been tainted with this Satanic stain.
I also believe in 610 AD, in a cave at Hira, Muhammad himself was deceived by a demon into believing the name of God the Creator was Allah. By this deception, Satan has hijacked the worship that was meant for God the Creator who was called El by Abraham.
This deception is so pervasive that even in the Al-Kitab, the Holy Bible in Arabic and in Bahasa Indonesia, the name used to denote God is Allah. Hence I believe all Muslims as well as those Christians who use the Arabic translations of the Holy Bible have been duped by Satan in a most diabolical way.
In order to repair the hedge of protection for Arabic and Bahasa speaking Christians, it is imperative to immediately replace the name, Allah with El.

In order to repair the hedge of protection for Arabic and Bahasa speaking Christians, it is imperative to immediately replace the name, Allah with El.
The second lie is the hijacking of the monotheistic ‘one god’ idea to mean one body called Allah instead of the true triune Godhead of God the Father (Abba), God the Son (Jesus) and God the Holy Spirit.
The third lie is to indicate that Jesus did not say that He was the Son of God when the exact opposite is true. (Matt 26:63-64)
The fourth lie is to indicate that Jesus did not die and resurrect from death, but someone else was placed on the cross instead (Sura 4:157-158).
There is compelling evidence, for the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus. (Reference: pp 215-240. The best of Josh McDowell. A ready defence. 1993)
The fifth lie is to indicate that Muhammad is the Comforter (Paraclete) instead of the Holy Spirit.
It is stated very clearly that the Comforter will ‘reprove the world of righteousness because Jesus goes to His Father’ (John 16:7-11). Yet Muhammad denies that God is Jesus’ father. This automatically disqualifies Muhammad from being the Comforter.
I believe quotation of Bible verses only when it appears to agree with the Qur’an and ignoring the others and ignoring the context is deceptive.
Deception is the signature of Satan.
The sixth lie is that the Ka’ba, which contained 360 pagan idols is the shrine set up by Abraham to worship Allah.
Abraham was never in the vicinity of Mecca. Abraham migrated from Ur of the Chaldees up the Euphrates to Syria and then through Canaan south to Egypt and then back to Canaan. The desert of Paran is in the Sinai peninsula and not the Arabian peninsula (Genesis 21:21). The seventh lie is that Muhammad’s name is mentioned in the Gnostic ‘Gospel of St. Barnabas’. However, the only version of this is an obvious fake dating from the 18th century, in Italian, and containing passages from Dante’s Divine Comedy written in the 13th century. The purpose of Satan’s deception is to downplay the truth about Jesus and to exalt the pagan idol, Allah.
9 A TREE IS JUDGED BY ITS FRUIT
A good tree will bear good fruit and a bad tree will bear bad fruit (Matthew 7:17-18).
Let us see what fruit Muhammad bore after his spirit was possessed by Satan.
Before his exposure to the demon at the cave at Hira, Muhammad was reported to be a peaceful man with one wife.
However after his call by Allah, he started to indulge in deception, highway robbery, banditry, rape and killing.
When Muhammad was 49 years old, a few weeks after the death of his first wife Khadija in 619 AD, Muhammad married Sauda bint Zamaa who was a widow and about 30 years of age.
When Muhammad was 53 years of age, he married Aisha bint abi Bakr in 623 AD, when she was still a 9 year old child!
When Muhammad was 55 years of age, he married Hafsa bint Umar ibn al Khattab in 625 AD. She was a young 17 year old widow.
In the same year, Muhammad married Zainab bint Khuzaima, a twice widow, but she died a few months after the marriage.
Muhammad’s sixth wife was Umm Salama, a widow of about age 30.
Muhammad married his own cousin, Zainab bint Jahash. She was also the divorced wife of his adopted son, Zaid ibn Haritha.
At the age of 57 years, in April 627 AD, Muhammad ‘married’ his Jewess prisoner Rahaina bint Amr, after executing all the adult males of a Jewish tribe Beni Quraidha, including her father. It is interesting that Muhammad had sexual intercourse with his prisoner before her next menses, contrary to his own rule regarding sexual intercourse with captured women.
In January 628 AD, at the age of 58, Muhammad raided the tribe of Beni Mustaliq and captured and ‘married’ Juwairiya , the daughter of the chief of that tribe.
In the same year, Umm Habeeba bint abi Sofian, a widow became his tenth wife.
After his followers raided Kheibar and killed Kinana ibn abi al Huqaiq, its Jewish leader, they captured his wife, Safiya bint Huyai ibn al Akhtab, whom Muhammad conveniently ‘married’.
Maimoona bint al Harith married Muhammad when he was 59 years of age.
Muhammad’s thirteenth and last marriage was to Mary a Christian slave girl given to Muhammad by the ‘ruler’ of Egypt.
Interestingly, although Muhammad pronounced that a believer of Allah can have only up to four wives at a time, he himself had a special divine dispensation to exceed that number.
After his escape from Mecca to Medina, Muhammad commenced a series of bloody raids on the caravans from Mecca in order to capture booty.
Interestingly, according to Muhammad, this activity was sanctioned by Allah as Jihad and one fifth of the booty goes to Allah (Khumus). Call it what you may but I consider it as highway robbery all the same. The raids progressively became bolder and included raids on neighboring settlements and tribes.
After the siege of Medina failed, Muhammad settled old scores by capturing the settlement of the Jewish tribe Beni Quraidha who had sided with the pagan Meccans. He robbed them of all their property, sold their women and children as slaves, and he executed all the adult males who numbered between 700 and 800. This effectively exterminated the entire tribe.
It appears that for Muhammad, the end justifies the means, even the use of deception.
While he was busily insisting that there is only one god, Allah, he found it appropriate to deceive the pagan Meccans by stating the Al-Lat, Al Uzza and Manat the popular female idols of the Ka’ba can be prayed to for intercession to Allah (Sura 53).
After he became more powerful, he deleted these embarrassing verses by giving the convenient excuse as well as an admission that they were inspired by Satan. I believe this occurrence enormously increases the probability that the entire Qur’an and Hadith were inspired by Satan for the deception of mankind.
10 THE FIVE PILLARS OF DEMONIC ISLAM
The first pillar is the testimony of faith. This is to declare that Allah is the one and only creator god and Muhammad is his Apostle.
As was already pointed out, the name Allah actually denotes the name of a pagan idol. Declaring this testimony of faith is tantamount to declaring belief in a pagan idol, allowing the demon who has possessed that idol free rein to possess whosoever declares this testimony.
I believe Muhammad is truly the apostle of the pagan idol Allah and it’s possessing demon, whom I believe to be none other than Satan himself.
The second pillar is the ritual prayer Salat, which is the five times a day obeisance in the direction of the Ka’ba in Mecca ( Qibla).
This involves several rakaa or repetitions of obeisance.
The Islamic believer’s hands are raised and he says “Allah is most great”, the hands are the joined at the chest and the worshipper says, “ Glory be to You, O Allah, Yours is the praise, blessed is Your Name, exalted is Your Majesty and there is no god but You. I take refuge with Allah against the devil who is stoned.” Then the Fatiha or opening chapter of the Qur’an is recited. Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds (ie the whole creation),
The Compassionate, the Merciful,
Master of the day of judgement,
Only You do we worship, and only You do we implore for help.
Lead us to the right path, The path of those you have favoured Not those who have incurred Your wrath or have gone astray. The worshipper then recites a chapter of the Qur’an of his choice and the says, “Allah is most great” and then bows from the waist, with the palms of his hand on his knees, saying three times, “Glory to my Lord, the Great”.
The worshipper then stands and says, “Allah hears him who praises Him. O Lord, Yours is the praise.” He then falls to his knees and bends his body forwards with his forehead touching the ground, repeating thee times, “Glory to my Lord, the Most High.” He then straightens up his body while still in the kneeling position, and sits on his heels for a few moments and the repeats the prostration with his forehead to the ground.
He then stands up in completion of the Rakaa. The Rakaa is repeated, the number of times varies on different occasions.
I believe this ritual of obeisance to the pagan idol Allah, repeated five times a day, ensures the demon possessing the idol to be invited to control the mind and spirit of the deceived worshipper.
I now understand why it is required for believers in Islam to repeat this obeisance five times a day. It is necessary in order to edify the effete idol and the demon which possesses it, as well as to ensure that the worshipper remains obedient to the demonic possessing spirit without questioning.
I also understand why believers of Islam are commanded to recite the Qur’an rather than to study the Qur’an. To study means to dissect and analyze. I believe that analysis of the Qur’an will reveal numerous inconsistencies that will generate doubt in the truth of Islam.
The third pillar of Islam is giving zakat (alms to the poor). I believe this reflects Mammad’s orphan beginnings. Moreover, charity lends an air of social acceptability and legitimacy.
The third lie is to indicate that Jesus did not say that He was the Son of God when the exact opposite is true. (Matt 26:63-64)
The fourth lie is to indicate that Jesus did not die and resurrect from death, but someone else was placed on the cross instead (Sura 4:157-158).
There is compelling evidence, for the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus. (Reference: pp 215-240. The best of Josh McDowell. A ready defence. 1993)

The Islamic believer’s hands are raised and he says “Allah is most great”, the hands are the joined at the chest and the worshipper says, “ Glory be to You, O Allah, Yours is the praise, blessed is Your Name, exalted is Your Majesty and there is no god but You. I take refuge with Allah against the devil who is stoned.” Then the Fatiha or opening chapter of the Qur’an is recited. Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds (ie the whole creation),
The Compassionate, the Merciful,
Master of the day of judgement,
Only You do we worship, and only You do we implore for help.
Lead us to the right path, The path of those you have favoured Not those who have incurred Your wrath or have gone astray. The worshipper then recites a chapter of the Qur’an of his choice and the says, “Allah is most great” and then bows from the waist, with the palms of his hand on his knees, saying three times, “Glory to my Lord, the Great”.
The worshipper then stands and says, “Allah hears him who praises Him. O Lord, Yours is the praise.” He then falls to his knees and bends his body forwards with his forehead touching the ground, repeating thee times, “Glory to my Lord, the Most High.” He then straightens up his body while still in the kneeling position, and sits on his heels for a few moments and the repeats the prostration with his forehead to the ground.
He then stands up in completion of the Rakaa. The Rakaa is repeated, the number of times varies on different occasions.
I believe this ritual of obeisance to the pagan idol Allah, repeated five times a day, ensures the demon possessing the idol to be invited to control the mind and spirit of the deceived worshipper.
I now understand why it is required for believers in Islam to repeat this obeisance five times a day. It is necessary in order to edify the effete idol and the demon which possesses it, as well as to ensure that the worshipper remains obedient to the demonic possessing spirit without questioning.
I also understand why believers of Islam are commanded to recite the Qur’an rather than to study the Qur’an. To study means to dissect and analyze. I believe that analysis of the Qur’an will reveal numerous inconsistencies that will generate doubt in the truth of Islam.
The third pillar of Islam is giving zakat (alms to the poor). I believe this reflects Mammad’s orphan beginnings. Moreover, charity lends an air of social acceptability and legitimacy.
The fourth pillar of Islam is the annual fast in the month of Ramadan. Depriving oneself of sustenance on command is an act of obedience and subservience.
I believe, once a year, believers of Islam rededicate themselves to acknowledging, in a very tangible and personal way, that the pagan idol named Allah is their master.
It is interesting to note that in Hebrew, ‘master’ is ‘baal’.

The fifth pillar of Islam is the Hajj or pilgrimage to Mecca.
It is recommended that a believer in Islam perform the Hajj at least once in his lifetime. I believe that this pilgrimage is a further act of obeisance to the pagan idol, named Allah.
The Hajj, as practiced by believers of Islam today, appears to be a re-enactment of Muhammad’s last pilgrimage on 9 March 632 AD. The ceremonies included the wearing of special pilgrim dress, the travel from Medina (Yathrib) to Mecca, the ritual throwing of stones at the devil at Mudzalifa, the slaughtering of sacrificial animals at Mina, and the seven time circumambulation of the Ka’ba.
I believe that every detail of the ceremony as laid down by Muhammad has a demonic significance.
The ritual throwing of stones at the devil is a deceptive ploy to dupe the believer of Islam that mere stone throwing will hurt a demon.
The slaughtering of sacrificial animals is to mimic the story of Abraham and the cutting of the covenant between El-Elyon and Abraham, in order to lend legitimacy to Islam.
However, I believe with the shedding of innocent blood in this sacrifice, a blood covenant is being cut between the pagan idol, named Allah and the unsuspecting pilgrim.
The Ka’ba was a pagan shrine to 360 idols even before Muhammad was born. It was originally a four walled building containing pictures and stone idols.
In one of its walls is a stone, believed to be a meteorite, which was worshipped as Al-Uzza, one of the three female idols referred to in the Satanic verses contained in the original, unexpurgated version of Sura 53 of the Qur’an. The Ka’ba was rebuilt and roofed in 605 AD when Muhammad was 35 years of age.
It was the practice of the Quraish tribe of Mecca to worship the pagan idols by walking and running around (circumambulating) the Ka’ba and touching the Black Stone.
Muhammad practiced this idol worship before his encounter with who he thought was the angel Gabriel at the age of 40 in 610 AD.
Even after the call, he continued the practice of worshipping at the Ka’ba in spite of his insistence that there was only one god.
Except for a period when he directed his followers to worship in the direction of Jerusalem, Muhammad required that the Salat, or the 5 times daily devotions be directed (Qibla) towards the Ka’ba in Mecca.
When Muhammad returned to Mecca in victory in 630 AD, he entered the Ka’ba and ordered all the painted figures on the walls to be erased and all idols in areas under his control to be destroyed.
It is believed by believers of Islam that the Ka’ba was the site of a shrine built by Abraham to worship his God. This is an attempt to lend legitimacy to the Qibla.
However, Abraham was never in the vicinity of Mecca in his lifetime.
I believe the Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca and the ritualistic circumambulation of the Ka’ba is a continuation of the pagan worship before the birth of Muhammad.
After the return of Muhammad to Mecca, instead of patently worshipping many pagan idols, pilgrims are unwittingly worshipping one pagan idol called Allah.
I believe the touching of the Black Stone seals the covenant between the pagan idol named Allah and the pilgrim.
I believe this is the reason why believers of Islam are required to go for the Hajj at least once in their lifetime.
The sixth religious duty is Jihad (Holy War).
Men are required to go to war to defend Islam or to spread Islam when the situation warrants.
A man who dies in Jihad immediately goes to Paradise and is considered a martyr (Shahid).
11 THE BASE ALLURE OF ISLAM
It is easy to be converted to Islam. All a person is required to do is to declare the creed openly.
It appears that actual believing is not necessarily required.
It is easy to appear to be a Muslim.
All a person is required to do is to perform the Salat, the five times a day prayer, fast for one month in a year, give alms to the poor and attempt to go for the Hajj once in his lifetime. This would assure the person of acceptance by Allah.
It is interesting that the performance of the five pillars of Islam would guarantee salvation from Allah and that a Muslim can do any dastardly act and yet qualify to go to Paradise. How very ‘liberating’.
Islam appeals to the ‘animal’ desires of men.
Believers are allowed up to four wives at a time.
During Jihad, the Muta marriage law legitimizes rape by permitting the Muslim to ‘marry’ a woman for three days on presenting her with a piece of cloth.
The Muslin concept of Paradise panders to the sexual lust of men. They recline on beds interwoven with gold, supplied with unlimited limpid drink, fruits and flesh of fowl and wide-eyed houris (heavenly concubines), like hidden pearls, as a reward for what they do (Al Qur’an Sura 56, verses 15-24).
Muhammad was reported to have said, “ There is in Paradise a market, wherein there will be no buying or selling, but will consist of men and women. When a man will desire a beauty, he will have intercourse with them.” Reported by Ali and attested by Tirmizi (Al Hadis, Book 4, Chap 42, no. 34).
In Paradise, a man will be able to see the nakedness of a woman through seventy layers of dresses (no 652).
It is clear that sexual lust is the uppermost consideration in the eyes of Muhammad.
The only way a woman can get to heaven is by marrying a Muslim man. This way she can ‘enjoy’ seeing her husband having sexual intercourse with innumerable young women from the market of virgins, and ‘enjoy’ having other men looking through her clothing at her nakedness.
Participating in Jihad is attractive because the martyr is immediately transferred to Paradise to have sexual intercourse with virgins. If the warrior does not die, he has the spoils (booty) to enjoy.
Why don’t women reject this discrimination against them? By participating in the rituals of obeisance to the pagan idol named Allah, they become demon possessed and thus become blind to reason and truth.
12 THE QUR’AN IS NOT PERFECT
By definition, the Qur’an is the complete collection of the revelations to Muhammad by the angel Gabriel from Allah. It is claimed that it is the same today as it was handed down by Muhammad to his companions. This is offered as proof that the Qur’an must be the word of God.
However, from the various Hadith ( Bukhari, Muslim, Mishkat-ul-masbih), that from the start, the Qur’an had many varied and conflicting readings. The choice and method of standardization was not by divine intervention but by the work of man.
The Caliph Uthman, noting that there were many versions of the Qur’an, called for the copy belonging to Hafsah (one of the wives of Muhammad and daughter of Umar), and had it copied and distributed throughout the Islamic realm and had all other versions destroyed by burning.
There is evidence that this ‘Revised Standard Version’ was not perfect. Sura 33, verse 23 was initially missing, and the readings on stoning for adultery is still not included in the Qu’ran (Ibn Ishaq, Sirat Rasulullah, pg 684).
If every word in the Qur’an is supposed to be the inspired of Allah, then why are Jewish folklore included in it?
The story of the raven scratching on the ground in the story of Cain and Abel ( Surah 5, verse 31. & Pirke Rabbi Eliezer Chapter 21).
The killing of one human being as equivalent to killing all mankind ( Surah 5, verse 32. & Mishnah, Sanhedrin Chapter 4, verse 5). The story of Abraham being thrown into a fiery furnace (Surah 21, verses 52-70 & Midrash Rabbah, where the Ur of Chaldees was mistaken for Or (fire) of Chaldees
13 THE QUR’AN IS DEMON INSPIRED
I believe The Qur’an contains material that is demon inspired.
There are prophecies and insights contained in the Qur’an and the Sunnah which cannot be explained by human intelligence at the time they were written. These have been proffered as evidence for the claim that the Qur’an was divinely inspired.

I believe The Qur’an contains material that is demon inspired.
There are prophecies and insights contained in the Qur’an and the Sunnah which cannot be explained by human intelligence at the time they were written. These have been proffered as evidence for the claim that the Qur’an was divinely inspired.
These include the prophecy on the victory of the Byzantines over the Persians within nine years after their initial loss, as well as insights on scientific knowledge, viz. the description on the joining and stacking of clouds, the role of hailstones in the formation of lightning, mountains as pegs, the darkness in the deep sea, the waves inside the ocean, the partition of seas and estuaries, the snow age, the rotation and orbiting of the earth, the origin of the universe through smoke, pain sensation from burn, the front of the brain as responsible for lying and the early development of the human embryo.
I believe when Lucifer was cast down to earth together with his fallen angels, he became known as Satan, the accuser of the brethren. Because these fallen angels are spirit and unable to effect change on earth except through spirit possession of human beings, they have perfected the skill of possessing people’s minds and invented the concept of reincarnation to deceive people into accepting their repeated possession of people.
There is no reincarnation of the original spirits of people which are from El-Elyon, the true creator. There is only repeated spirit possession of people by the spirits of fallen angels (demonic spirits) which is their ‘reincarnation’.
I believe the original El-Elyon given spirit is given at conception, after the sperm enters the egg and they fuse to become another new, distinct and unique individual.
Demon possession can occur any time after conception. I believe that the possessing demon is able to retain memory of its experience in the body of the possessed person. Hence the knowledge of the early development of the embryo. This knowledge was revealed to Muhammad by the demon which possessed him. Hence knowledge of human anatomy and function can also be accounted for.

I believe the demons inhabit the realm of principalities and powers, which include the air, sea and earth (Ephesians 2:2) Hence their knowledge of the geological, meteorological and astronomical phenomena.
Their objective is to impress mankind and deceive us into believing that this knowledge is from the creator. Again, deception, the signature of Satan, is seen.
What about prophecy? Even the evil Balaam was able to prophesy. What about the miracles like splitting the moon and producing water from his hand ? Even Hindu yogis have been reported to perform miraculous acts. I believe the power to do this is demonic
14 ONLY THE PRETENDER NEEDS TO PROVE HIMSELF
The true creator does not need to prove himself as the creator.
A pretender needs to prove himself to mankind.
I believe Satan is pretending to be the creator.
Satan is using the pagan idol named Allah to represent himself as the creator.

The true creator does not need to prove himself as the creator.

I believe Satan is pretending to be the creator.
Satan is using the pagan idol named Allah to represent himself as the creator.
This explains why the five pillars of Islam is so important to Satan. In order to qualify for salvation, a believer in Islam is required to recite the creed that there is only one creator named Allah and that Muhammad is his messenger. Moreover it is also a requirement to pay homage by worshipping not once but five times a day to Allah in the Salat ritual prayers. It is also a requirement to go on a pilgrimage to Mecca to perform the ritual of obeisance to Allah, including the cutting of a blood covenant with Allah at least once in a lifetime.
The status of salvation of a believer in Allah is insecure. It is dependent on his effort to perform the rituals required by the five pillars of Islam.
On the other hand, I believe the true creator, El-Elyon does not need anyone to pay homage to Him. I believe that He remains almighty whether people worship Him or not. I believe my maker is absolutely holy and there is no way I can even come close to His holiness and achieve salvation by my own efforts.
It is only by His mercy in sending His only Son, Jesus, to redeem me that I am given a chance to have salvation. All I need to do is believe in Jesus as my savior.15 THE GOOD NEWS OF GRACE
I believe Jesus is the Son of El-Elyon. Once I believe in Jesus, I become His sibling, and El-Elyon becomes my father (Abba) and I receive and accept permanent and irrevocable right standing and salvation forever (Galatians 3:26-27).
Abba will send the Holy Spirit (Paraclete) to dwell within me and guide me to focus on Jesus in my decisions. The Holy Spirit will never leave me nor forsake me forever.
Abba will not insist that I worship Him five times a day nor will he require me to go on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem in order to maintain right standing with Him and to preserve my salvation.
I worship my maker because I am grateful for His mercy and grace for saving me even though I do not deserve to be saved (Romans 3:23).
I praise Him and pay homage to Him because I want to do so, not because I have to do so.
I believe I will never lose my status as the beloved of my Abba (Father) forever no matter what I do or don’t do after I have accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior (Romans 3:22).
