DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this book, written in the year 1900, the author has strongly refuted the false notion that Islam teaches Muslim to wage a war against non-Muslims known as jihad. He writes: “Anyone who has eyes and reads the narrations in Hadith and looks at the Quran can realize it quite well that this form of jihad, which many savage-like people are pursuing, is not the jihad taught by Islam. In fact, these are criminal acts which are done through the arousal of base passions or in the vain hope of attaining paradise … Can it be a virtuous deed that there is a man going about in the market place, we have no connection with him so much so that we do not know his name and he does not know our name, but despite this we fire a gunshot at him intending to kill him? Is this religious behaviour?” Although written in the year 1900, this book reads very much as if it has been written for today to condemn the violent extremism of misguided Muslim groups.
