Dr. Michael Ignatius Muluk’s two books (a series about Muhammad)
- How Muhammad Stole the Judeo-Christian Tradition
- How Muhammad Inverted theJudeo-Christian Tradition
- How Muhammad Stole the Judeo-Christian Tradition
- How Muhammad Inverted theJudeo-Christian Tradition
His answers on Islam, leaving Islam, and terrorism on the popular Q&A platform Quora have been read more than one million times.
The foreword of his first book How Muhammad Stole the Judeo-Christian Tradition gave this warning…
“Be aware that this book is not a scholarly research paper written from the safety of a university’s library by secular scholars who have never even met a radical Muslim in their lives.”
This is a book written by a man who has seen and lived the good, the bad, and the ugly of his faith. A man who decided that it was worth to leave Islam, even risking his own life and that of his family in the process.
After Muluk pointed out that Islam will become the religion with the most followers by the year 2060 he asked this questions: What does that mean for our children? How will Islam affect their lives?
Dr Muluk put a very strong acclamation on the table with his first book.
How Muhammad Stole the Judeo-Christian Tradition.
He explains his reasons as follows:
Everybody agrees that these three world religions Judaism, Christianity, and Islam share a common root – all three are Abrahamic religions. Even Jews, Christians, and Muslims themselves seem to confirm that their faiths share the same traditions, protagonists, and most importantly, a common monotheistic core. Even King Abdullah of Jordan said in an interview with CNN that he believed in Jesus Christ as the Messiah and His Holy Virgin Mother.
If we believe in people like King Abdullah, Islam shouldn’t be very much different to the Judeo-Christian Tradition.
But – the questions Muluk asked - why do we have to deal with the reality that Islam has been at war with the Jews and the Christians for the last 1400 years? Why do most Muslim countries persecute their Christian minorities? Why do we see a global resurgence of the spirit of Jihad? Why do even Muslims in moderate Muslim majority countries such as Indonesia call for the reestablishment of the Islamic Caliphate and the death of Jews and Christians? Are we missing something?
Muluk shared this crazy thought: What if Islam is not an Abrahamic religion at all? What if Islam has nothing to do with its Judeo-Christian predecessors, and all its ties to Abraham and the God of the Bible are just lies made up by Muhammad?
The Book of Dr Muluk reads very easy, and he explained his material from many child experiences like this one: about “The Ramadhan Jackpot”
- When I was a little boy, my parents told me of a very special night in the Muslim calendar: the Laylat al-Qadr, which can be translated as ‘The Night of Decree.’ It commemorates the night the first revelation came to Muhammad in the Cave of Hira. The Laylat al-Qadr is one of the nights of the last ten days of the holy month of Ramadhan.
- If you pray during that night, you will get the equivalent of good deeds as if you have prayed for ten thousand nights. Imagine that: ten thousand nights of prayer! That would be 27 years of praying every night if you do it the regular way. So I was, of course, determined to go with the shortcut method. The problem is that nobody knows which of these ten last days of Ramadhan was really Laylat al-Qadr!
- So, it’s a bit of a lottery for Muslims. As a child, I developed this nifty plan how to win this lottery: simply pray every night for every one of these ten days, and you’ll eventually hit the jackpot (just don’t tell Allah I told you!).
I just finished reading the first book - Absolute a must for every Non-Muslim and for every Muslim
I can't wait to start reading the second book:
