  • "Know Muhammad" campaign
     OP - December 10, 2012, 02:25 PM




    Another day, another dollar, another dawah campaign.

    Free Dawah packs on The Greatest Man To Walk The Earth available.

    The Video will bring tears to your eyes (emotional piano music in background)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUM12f8JX6c&feature=player_embedded


    ++++++++++++++++



    He was the greatest man ever to walk the Earth, his every word and action even today are followed by over a billion and a half people, and his legacy in both the spiritual and political realms have shaped the world more than any other figure in history.

    Yet the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) remains a mystery to the non-Muslim world, most of whom know very little if anything about his life, message or achievements. What little is known mostly comes from the likes of tabloid journalists or jingoistic politicians; at best distorted, at worst intentionally slanderous.

    It is the responsibility of all Muslims to fill this knowledge gap in society with the truth, before it is filled by those who have an interest in seeing the Prophet of Islam demonised. Rather than sit back and wait for another insulting book, picture or video, it is time we took the driving seat and directed the discussion about Muhammad (peace be upon him) in a positive way. It’s time for the world to ‘Know Muhammad’.


    ▶ Isn’t this issue all over and done with, why bring it up now?

    Whether it is through blasphemous images, cartoons or videos, there are those who wish to use our love and respect for our Prophet (saw) as a means to attack the very heart of our belief. While the latest onslaught may have died down, rather than sit and wait for the next time, the onus is on us to proactively educate people on who Muhammad (saw) really was so that he cannot be defamed so easily.


    ▶ What do you hope to achieve?

    Muhammad (SAW) by any standard was the greatest person to grace this planet. We hope to make this case so strongly, clearly and convincingly that even non-Muslims will have to acknowledge his status, which is no less than he (SAW) deserves.


    ▶ What difference can I make?

    All the difference! This campaign means nothing if it is not taken out to the wider community, and this is where you come in. We will provide the arguments, the material and the ideas. All you have to do is take them out to your work colleagues, college and university campuses and local communities. Let everyone Know Muhammad (SAW)!


    ▶ How do I speak to non-Muslims about Muhammad (SAW)?

    We have made it so easy for you, as all the best discussions have been laid out for you, we have provided leaflets to hand out and there will even be events specifically for non-Muslims.


    ▶ How long will this campaign last?

    Until at least summer 2013.


    ▶ Are there any events to bring my non-Muslim colleagues to?

    Yes! Keep a look out for when we launch the events page on the website.


    ▶ Is this campaign only aimed at non-Muslims, surely Muslims all know who Muhammad (SAW) is?

    Whilst aspect of the Prophet (SAW) are well known by all Muslims, there are aspects which could be better understood, for example his role as a political leader.

    I think what's sad is, many people. Such as myself, have already done their own research into Islam and realized that all the dawah stuff these guys try to pull are half-truths.
    Spreading religion is a lot easier when you are talking to someone who knows nothing of the religion, and you don't have the means to hop on the internet and see the other side of the story. Thanks to terrorist attacks around the world, the media, the unrest and injustices in Islamic countries have already shown the world what Islam does to the minds of people. Muslims blame it on people 'mis-interpreting' the true peaceful message on Islam, but such a 'perfect' book should not even have the means to be used and manipulated to do evil.

    I myself had a favorable opinion of Islam until I actually read on about it. Double edge sword.



    Oh the irony... this guy doing Dawah on Deviantart.

    I facepalm every time I stubble upon his stuff. Actually thanks to him I learnt about Islam and I came upon CEMB and haven't left since lol.

    I think this helped to breed apologists too. It has made it a fuzzy topic to talk about.

    I wonder what would happen if instead of drawing insulting prophet cartoons, magazines compiled a list of "weird" ahadith and Quranic verses. Just like that, no commentary.

    There needs to be more rational criticism, which is perfectly valid, out there in the public domain. The problem is its either complete white washing by Muslims or non Muslim liberals, or quite aggressive caricature and hostility on the other side - and a whole lot of fear about scrutinising Hadith and Sirah and Sunnah rationally lest it upsets Muslims.

    A lot of the white washing by Karen Armstrong types is I feel in reaction to the more aggressive and crudely expressed criticism of Muhammad.

    Sounds lovely, doesn't it? Then you call their bluff, hold them to what they just said, start scrutinising some of the actual words and actions attributed to Mo, and then they can't distance themselves from him far enough and fast enough. Suddenly it's "he's a man of his time!" "you're taking it out of context!" "it's allegorical!" "false hadith!" "only the Quran should be followed!"

    Too fucking busy, and vice versa.

    Yep I think this is wonderful. Everyone should know Muhammad. Everyone should look up what he did and who he did it with. Everyone should know that he was a war lord, a slave owner, a 50 year old man who fucked a 9 year old girl, a polygamist, a blasphemer, and a charlatan.

    Everyone should know that all of that ^ is recorded within Islamic history written by Muslim historians.

    And that fool of that web site  . "Everyone should know Muhammad"  is  an high school drop out kid from England..  that video is the proof of that.  How the hell on this earth  one will know Historical Muhammad, prophet of Islam by watching the tube??    .. Damn look at that picture the fool collected at 1.44 .. Scary.. If  i see the crowd like that on roads it scares the hell out of me  Huh?.   people look like ZOMBIES

    It's quite telling that Muslims who know their shit have created answers like this. They are uncomfortable in their own beliefs yet choose to find excuses instead of criticise.
     I was watching a video of Mr.Moderate Muslim Tariq Ramadan, and he was saying "well we obviously don't believe that these stories are literal". Firstly I'd like to see him say that in front of the hard liners (who already think people like him and Hamza Yusuf are stoners), and secondly, who decides which parts are literal or allegorical?

    vomit I can reluctantly accept that he was a product of his time and *may* not have been diabolically evil (is that redundant?) by 7th century standards, but that he was the "greatest person to grace this planet…by any standard". WTF? I can't even accept that he was "great" by pagan Arab standards; even those savage jahils saw some of Mo's actions as immoral, so how can any honest person make this claim? Do these Muslims not read their own Hadith/seerah? Because I couldn't stomach Mo after reading up on him and that was one of the contributing factors to my apostasy. I can't accept that any Muslim who is well-versed in Islamic texts and history genuinely thinks that Mo was the greatest, most moral, most awesomest human being to have ever lived by ANY standard.   

    The video was sickening. "He taught us morals and everyone else is in darkness" ('cause Muslims have a monopoly on morality, we're still in jahiliyah after all  Roll Eyes). "…we don't pillage and fight" cue burning shit from the London riots  (the Middle East, 'nough said). "He was the greatest", "the best of creation", blah, blah, blah. WTF? I feel physically sick whenever I hear Mo being praised; I literally can't stand it. Is it just me or do other apostates also cringe at the glorification of this Arab warlord?

    It's funny the way cult leaders tend to have special rules so they get to sleep with lots of women and so that people give them money [like Mo].
    For me the defining feature of Islam is that it was a cult that "fully bloomed" - most cult leaders develop their cults within a civilisation/under a government power. This means that before they start killing too many unbelievers, they get stamped out. Nevertheless one can sometimes see the gestating potential:
    e.g. regarding Joseph Smith [founder of Mormonism], as reported by an Ex-Mormon:
    I have heard the prophet say that he should yet tread down his enemies, and walk over their dead bodies; that if he was not let alone he would be a second Mahomet to this generation, and that he would make it one gore of blood from the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic Ocean; that like Mahomet, whose motto, in treating for peace, was “the Alcoran or the Sword,” so should it be eventually with us, “Joseph Smith or the Sword.”

    Islamic Logic:

    Muahammad was man of his times, when at the age of 53, married six year old Ayesha and had sex with her when she was nine.

    But Muahammad is a man to be emulated for ever by everyone because he is the man of all times!
