Alright christianity is the fastest growing religion, if that will make you sleep well, oya start dancing and rejoicing.

Thanks Abeed. By the way, congrats on the wedding anniversary of MuckhaMAD

This is disturbing. What if there had been complications? She might have lost either her life or her baby's.

If I were Keshi and the shameless NFF asks me to take charge of the Eagles, I will seriously embarrass and humiliate them the same way they embarassed and humiliated me.

The words of a famous Islamic scholar........................

If you insist on confusing population growth with religious growth, then it means you are actually gullible and dim-witted enough to believe the nonsense that growth which comes about by missionary activities, preaching, persuasive arguments and debates (as it happens with Christianity), is not a reflection of true religious growth.

Rather you believe that the growth which was achieved by polygamy, concubinage, over-reproduction, kidnapping and forced conversion of young girls from other faiths (as it happens in Islam) is the proper approach to achieving religious growth. SMH

Get it straight my dear abeeds. Population growth does not equate with religious growth. They are two separate and distinct demographic phenomena.

Receive sense and stop reasoning through your rear-ends my dear abeeds

Is Islam Really The Fastest Growing Religion or Is It The Fastest Breeding Religion?

This question is hereby answered thoroughly and comprehensively with the aid of reliable, independent, objective and value free research and statistics:



Introduction [edit]

Many have claimed that Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world. As proof, they usually present unverifiable claims and baseless media quotes. Apparently ABC News had claimed: "Already more than a billion-people strong, Islam is the world's fastest-growing religion", a quote which cannot be traced to its source. Also CNN World News stated "Fast-growing Islam winning converts in Western world", a statement which they fail to back up with any evidence. Here we examine the actual data available for Islam to see if any of these claims are based on fact.

Analysis [edit

Growth of Islam [edit]

Worldwide

According to "The Future of the Global
Muslim Population," published by the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life, the growth and anticipated future growth of Islam is primarily due to "their relatively high birth rate, the large number of Muslims of childbearing age, and an increase in life expectancy in Muslim-majority countries" and
conversions play little part in the increase due to available data suggesting "Islam loses as many adherents via conversion as it gains."

In 2006, countries with a Muslim majority had an average population growth rate of 1.8% per year (when weighted by percentage Muslim and population size).

This compares with a world population
growth rate of 1.12% per year,and
according to the World Christian
Encyclopaedia, between 1990 and 2000,
Islam received around 865,558 converts
each year. This compares with an
approximate 2,883,011 converts each year for Christianity during the same period.

Africa

Muslims previously outnumbered
Christians in sub-Saharan Africa.
However, a study published in April 2010 by the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life has found that Christians now
outnumber Muslims by 2 to 1 making Islam a minority belief.

The number of adherents to Christianity in sub-Saharan Africa grew from fewer than 9 million in 1910 to 516 million today, a 60- fold increase eclipsing the growth of Islam.


America

Contrary to what is often claimed, Islam is not the fastest growing religion in the
United States. Here are the available facts:
The ARIS polls[9] 1990 and 2000 show
that the percent of change for Islam was +109%. The percent of change for
Nonreligious/Secular (+110%), Native
American Religion (+119%), Buddhism
(+170%), Baha'i (+200%), Hinduism
(+237%), New Age (+240%), Sikhism
(+338%) and Deism (+717%) were all
higher.

The American Religious Identification
Survey gave Non-Religious groups the
largest gain in terms of absolute numbers -

14,300,000 (8.4% of the population) to
29,400,000 (14.1% of the population) for the period 1990 to 2001 in the USA.
Also, Americans with no religion were the fastest growing segment from 2001 to 2008.

According to the Cultural Orientation
Resource Center, 60% of all refugees admitted into the United States are from Muslim-majority countries. Likewise, a Pew report published in January 2011 found that "About two-thirds of the Muslims in the U.S. today (64.5%) are first-generation immigrants (foreign-born)".

Contrary to the often-quoted figures
provided by CAIR and in spite of the
massive influx of Muslim refugees, a Pew survey carried-out in October 2009 found the estimate for the total Muslim population of the U.S to be at only 2.454 million.

Percentage-wise, Islam represents only
0.8 percent of the United States' religious make-up. About a third of what had previously been claimed and widely
accepted by many apologists and media
outlets.

According to research carried out by the
respected Pakistani-born American Muslim Dr. Ilyas Ba-Yunus (1932 - 2007), 75% of new Muslim converts in the US leave Islam within a few years.
According to Ahmed Nassef, the co-
founder and editor in chief of
MuslimWakeUp.com, less than 7 percent
of American Muslims attend mosque
regularly, compared with 38 percent of
American Christians who attend church
weekly.

China

Islam and Christianity both entered China during the 7th century,and
unreferenced claims have been made of
around 100 million Muslims in China.
However, most reliable estimates put the figures at 20 to 30 million Muslims (1.5% to 2% of the population).

Similarly, some organizations
have claimed up to 130 million Christians in China. However, most reliable estimates range from 40 million (3% of the total population) to 54 million (4%),meaning the growth of Christianity in China is almost double that of Islam.

Europe

A United Nations' survey showed that
between 1989 and 1998, Europe's Muslim population grew by more than 100 percent, due mainly to the effects of immigration from Muslim countries. Ontario Consultants on Religious Tolerance have an unsourced claim of 2.9 percent per year.

And according to a Pew report published
in January 2011, the future growth of Islam in Europe will be "driven primarily by continued migration."

According to data from the extensive 2010 European Social Survey (ESS), Muslims immigrants who have lived less than a year in Europe regularly go to the mosque.

But after they have lived more than a year in their new homeland, the figure drops to 48.8%. More than half rarely or never go to the mosque to pray.

In the Netherlands, mosque attendance is actually dropping faster than church
attendance. In 1998, 47 percent of Muslims would attend mosque at least once a month. This figure fell by 12 percent in 2008 to only 35 percent. Whilst church attendance for Catholics fell by only 8 percent, and church attendance amongst Protestants showed no change, remaining at 63 percent.

United Kingdom

It has been estimated that during 2001 -
2011, about 100,000 people converted to Islam in the United Kingdom, but 75
percent of these converts quickly left Islam, during this period. On the whole, there are about 200,000 apostates from Islam living in the UK, doubling the number that have converted.

Similarly to the rest of Europe,the
growth of Islam in the UK is primarily due to higher birthrates among Muslims (27 percent of Muslim families have three or more dependent children, compared with 14 percent of Sikh, 8 percent of Hindu, and 7 percent of Christian families)[32] and immigration (54 percent of all UK Muslims are foreign born).

A NOP poll of British Muslims
commissioned by Channel 4 also found
that 48% of Muslims never attend a
mosque, with another 6% only attending
for special occasions.

Russia

There is a wide spread belief that there are around 20 million Russian Muslims and that vast amounts of Russians are
converting to Islam. However, there are
only about 7 to 9 million Muslims in Russia and less than 3,000 ethnic Russians have converted to Islam within the last fifteen years.

For the same period almost 2 million ethnic Muslims have become Orthodox
Christians. Over 400 Russian Orthodox
clergy belong to traditionally Muslim ethnic groups, 20 percent of Tatars are Christian, and 70 percent of interfaith marriages result in the Muslim spouse conversion to Christianity.

Other Factors to Consider

Worth noting is the fact that apostates will rarely advertise leaving Islam due to the death sentence it imposes on its followers, and that most Islamic countries do not acknowledge conversions out of Islam.

Systematic persecution of religious
minorities has been documented in almost every Muslim majority country, leading to some converts to Islam being coerced or forced into their conversion.

For example, following the 2010 murder of a leading Muslim politician who called for modifications to Pakistan’s blasphemy law, it had been reported that at least 20 Pakistani Christians were converting to Islam each week out of fear.

Also according to the Society for the Protection of the Rights of the Child (SPARC), there were as many as 2,000 women and girls who were forcibly converted in 2011 to Islam through rape, torture and kidnappings in Pakistan.

This is not limited to Muslim-majority
countries. In the United Kingdom, it was
reported in 2007 that police were working with universities to clamp down on "aggressive conversions" to Islam, during which vulnerable teenage girls are beaten up by Muslims and forced to abandon university courses.

Conclusion

All the actual data available reveals that
Islam is neither the fastest growing religion by number of adherents or the fastest growing religion by percentage-increase.

The growing number of Muslims in the
world is due primarily to the higher than
average birth-rates, and consequent
population growths of Muslim countries
and communities. And their growing
presence in non-Muslim societies such as Europe and the Americas is
overwhelmingly due to immigration.
Furthermore, converts to Islam are vastly outnumbered by those who choose to leave the religion and embrace another faith or worldview.

And the majority of converts that Islam does manage to attract, decide to leave within the first few years of practicing it.

Finally, even if Islam were to be the fastest growing religion in the world, it would be an Argumentum ad populum to claim that this makes it the correct religion.

@parisbookaddict That is how they always lie, no be today. Do u honestly believe this lie you are telling yourself? islam is waxing strong, even here in africa, unlike xtianity that is a forgotten thing, the people that brought it to you through slavery has left it seeing the numerous irrationalities in it, it is in subsahara africa here that people take xtianity serious, islam is practiced by most of its adherents, but most "christians" today are just christians by name, so get your facts right! And its still the no.1 in africa, prove otherwise with something authoratative This is a very silly argument, but just for the records, Arabic is the most spoken language in africa, prove otherwise!

Islam is the FASTEST BREEDING religion and not the FASTEST GROWING religion. Even that status as FASTEST BREEDING is not assured because the Hindus are closing the gap bit by bit with each passing year.

If only she wasn't married

A brave Ex- Muslim raised the following 10 questions for his former religious companions. These questions have been translated into about 400 languages.
The questions are as follows:

1. Why Allah changed his own statements in the Holy Quran?

The following are examples of the good and kind verses, Allah revealed to our Holy Prophet in Mecca when he had only one wife, Kadhija.

“Be patient with what they say, and part from them courteously” (Q.73:10)
“To you be your religion, and to me my religion.” (Q.109:6)
“Therefore be patient with what they say, and celebrate (constantly) the praises of your Lord” (Q.20:103)
“...and you will find the nearest in love to the believers (Muslims) those who say: ‘We are Christians”; because amongst these are men devoted to learning and men who have renounced the world, and they are not arrogant.” (Q.5:82
“We well know what the infidels say: but you are not to compel them”. (Q.50:45)
“Hold to forgiveness; command what is right; but turn away from the ignorant” (Q7:119)
“Pardon thou, with a gracious pardoning.” (Q.15:85)
“Tell those who believe, to forgive, to forgive those who do not look forward to the days of Allah.” (Q.45.14)
“Those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Christians – any who believe in Allah and the last day, and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.” (Q.2:62)
“And do not dispute with the followers of the Book, except what is best.” (Q.29:46
After the death of Kadhija, our holy Prophet married Sawda, and then under-aged 9-year-old Aisha at the age of 53 and by this time he became very powerful in Medina. However, the Jews and Christians had rejected his claim of prophethood and his call to embrace Islam. Now the attitude of the Prophet and tone of Allah’s subsequent verses dramatically changed. Let us now take a look at the new Koranic verses, and also reflect a little on why Allah could not honour his own earlier words.

“Oh you who believe! Murder those of the disbelievers and let them find harshness in you” (Q.9:123)
“I will instil terror into the hearts of the unbelievers: smite above their necks and smite all their finger tips off.” (Q.8:12)
“Whoso desires another religion than Islam, it shall not be accepted of him.” (Q.3:85)
“Slay the idolaters wherever you find them.” (Q.9.5)
“slay them wherever ye catch them.”  (Q.2:191)
“Humiliate them and impose on them a penalty tax if they are Christians or Jews,” (Q.9:29)
“Allah deceived and Allah is the best of deceivers” (Q 3:54)
“Muslims do not take Jews and Christians as your friends” (Q 5:51)
“Fight those who do not believe in Allah and the last day, and fight people of the book.” (Q.9:29)
“O people of the Book (Jews and Christians), do you find fault with us, except that we believe in Allah? Shall I inform you of him who is worse than this in retribution from Allah? Worse is he whom Allah has cursed and brought His wrath upon, and of whom He made apes and swine and he who served idols. Such are in worse plight and far more astray from the straight path” (Q.5:59-60)
If Jews and Christians are the breed of monkeys and pigs in the eyes of Allah, then how it is possible that out of 820 or so Nobel Prize winners, 800 belonged to the People of the Book (Christians 620, Jews 180)?

Have you noticed that all inventions and discoveries that we use today, from safety-pin to aspirin, were made by people who never read our Holy Quran?

How we, the Muslims, can demand respect from others without any contribution to humanity?

2. Accusation of our Holy Prophet of being a paedophile?

According to Sahih Al-Bukhari (Volume 5, Book 58, Number 236), our Holy Prophet married ‘Aisha when she was a girl of six years of age, and he consummated that marriage when she was nine years old.

Is it normal for a 50-year-old Holy Prophet to fall in love with a 9-year-old girl and for a 53-year-old Holy Prophet to consummate a 9-year-old girl?

Was he the best of Allah’s creation, as we claim?

Are we to follow this example and marry six-year-old girls?

3. Accusation that our Holy Prophet a looter of caravans, a rapist and a slave trader?

Sahih Bukhari Volume 5, Book 59, Number 459:

“We went out with Allah’s Apostle for the Ghazwa of Banu Al-Mustaliq and we received captives and we desired women and we loved to do coitus interruptus.( molesting  the women  and withdrawing before ejaculation, because pregnant women are difficult to sell in the slave trade) So we asked Allah’s Apostle, he said, ‘It is better for you not to do so, for if any soul is predestined to exist, it will exist.”

This hadith proves that our Prophet looted caravans, raped captured women and was involved in slave trade.

Accordingly, non-Muslims are accusing our Holy Prophet of being a looter, rapist and slave trader. How do we counter these accusations?

4. Accusation that our Holy Prophet was a mass murderer?

According to Sahih Bukhari (Volume 4, Book 52, Number 280), after 25 days of holding Banu Qurayza besieged, the Jews eventually surrendered unconditionally as was demanded by our Holy Prophet. By the order of our Holy Prophet, between 600 and 900 of the Jewish men were beheaded.

Even if these Jews were found ‘treacherous’, was he not a "mercy of God to mankind" as Allah has said in the Quran? How could he then commit this horrendous massacre?

Yet, our Prophet boasted of such cruelties: “I have been made victorious through terror”. (Bukhari 4:52:220)

Soon after our Holy prophet set foot in Medina, he started his campaign of terror.  His followers have been doing the same ever since until this day.

5. Accusation of polygamy against our Holy Prophet

After Kadhija’s death when our Prophet was 50 years old, he had more than 20 wives and concubines. They were: Sawda, Aisha, Hafsa, Zaynab biny khuzayma, Umm Salama Rayhana, Zaynab bint Jahsh, Juwariya, Safiya, Barra, and Maria etc. Many of them were beautiful young widows from war-booty between the ages of 15 to 20.

6. Did Our Holy Prophet marry his own daughter-in-law Zainab?

Our Holy Prophet peeped through the window of his adopted son Zaid’s house and found Zaid’s wife Zainab in her night dress, which aroused his sexual desires for her. When Zaid heard about it, he become heart-broken, and divorced Zainab so that our Holy Prophet, his father, could marry her. And to clear the way for him to marry his daughter-in-law, which was not approved in Arab societies, our Prophet produced the following Quranic verse:

“You did hide in yourself that which Allâh will make manifest, you did fear the people whereas Allâh had a better right that you should fear Him. So when Zaid had accomplished his desire from her (i.e. divorced her), We gave her to you in marriage, so that (in future) there may be no difficulty to the believers in respect of (the marriage of) the wives of their adopted sons when the latter have no desire to keep them. And Allâh’s Command must be fulfilled” (Q.33:37).

Was this verse, which gives Muslims licence to marry the wife of their adopted sons, needed for guiding humanity to the right path?

7. Why Our Holy Prophet had broken the promise given to his 12 wives?

Mariah was a very beautiful Coptic Christian slave-girl of Hafsa, a wife of our Prophet. Though our prophet had promised to his wives that he would not have sex with Mariah, he cleverly planned and sent Hafsa out to her father Omar’s house on the pretext of an urgent matter, and had sex with Mariah when Hafsa was gone. When Hafsa found out that father didn’t call for her and returned home quickly, she found our Holy Prophet having sex with Maria in her bed.

In this awful situation, how did Our Holy prophet react? He pulled out another Quranic verse, allegedly coming from Allah, to give him divine license to commit such sexual act:

“O Prophet! Why do you ban (for yourself) that which Allâh has made lawful to you, seeking to please your wives? And Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. Allâh has already ordained for you (O men), the dissolution of your oaths. And Allâh is your Maula (Protector.) and He is the All-Knower, the All-Wise”. (Q.66:1-5)

Is this verse needed to be there in the Quran for guiding humankind to the right path? Or was devised just to cover his sexual pleasures?

Intelligent Aisha, being the favourite wife, knew our prophet well and rightly said: "Allah really sends his verses at and for your convenience, Rasool Allah!"

8. Is Allah the pagan moon God?

Was not our Prophet’s father named Abdullah, meaning “slave of Allah”? If so, how this Allah came into existence before our Prophet was born? Was this the pagan moon god Allah which the people of Quraish in Arabia, revered and worshiped? How this idol moon god of the Arabs became the heavenly one God for Muslims?

9. Why the rights of a woman in the Muslim world are so weak?

In Islam, a woman can be beaten by her husband (Q:4:34); the Quran and Hadith give her no right to divorce her husband; her testimony in court is half the value of a man’s; her inheritance is half what her brother gets; and she cannot leave the house officially without her husband’s permission.

Under sharia law, for a violated woman to prove that she was raped, not committed adultery, she must produce four male witnesses. So, how can a woman prove that she was raped? Does rape happen in front of four men? Was there any incident in the world that four men came to the court and said they have witnessed the rape? How do we justify this law, cruel to women?

10. Why Muslim women must wear burka?

When our Holy Prophet died at the age of 63, Aisha was 18 years old and his other wives, except Sawda, were between 23 and 27 years of age. On his later years in life, probably when our Holy Prophet became sexually weak and was unable to satisfy his wives, he faced a serious problem of protecting his 12 young and beautiful wives from the lustful glance of others. Hence, he ordered his wives and also the concubines to cover them from head to toe. This burqa dress has become the symbol of ‘modesty’ for women in Islam today. Please remember that our Prophet’s first wife Kadhija never wore burqa. Today, half a billion Muslim women have to veil themselves, because our Prophet had devised this dress-code to cover for his sexual weakness (impotence).

Islam, the fastest-growing religion?

We Muslims proudly claim that Islam is the fastest-growing religion. Islam is not the fastest-growing religion in terms of conversion. Sheikh Ahmad Al Katani gave Aljazeera T.V. the following facts and figures: “In every hour, 667 Muslims convert to Christianity. Everyday, 16,000 Muslims convert to Christianity. Every year, 6 million Muslims convert to Christianity.” (note that even two professors and Imams of Egypt’s most prestigious Al Azhar University, Dr. Mustafa (now Mark Gabriel) and Dr. Mohammad Rahoumy (now Dr. Samuel Paul) have left Islam, because of the unacceptable teachings of the Koran.)

But Islam is certainly the fastest-breeding religion. If you can have up to four wives and take a lot of children without bothering about their future and well being, that’s what will happen. The population will increase fast, but your community will be poor with hunger, and lack of education and jobs.

Conclusion

My dear Muslim brothers and sisters, please do not treat this letter as an American or Jewish propaganda. We love you very much. Why? Because we were Muslims like you before. We want you to see the truth for your self. If you have any doubt about this letter ask, any educated Muslim, but not a Mullah, who will be angry with you. You may have heard this story. A young Muslim asked a Mullah:

“When Allah created Adam & Eve, that is one woman to one man, how is it that our Holy Prophet had more than 12 wives and allowed us to have 4 wives? Because of this, we Muslims are poor everywhere?” The Mullah slapped on his face and shouted: “Don’t ask questions: believe and obey what we say.”

The Mullahs want you to remain chained in the 7th-century Arab culture. When we, the ex-Muslims, studied Koran, Ahadith and Sira together, with a logical and analytical mind, we found that Islam was not what we were taught in childhood: Islam is the best religion and Prophet Muhammad was the finest man in history. In fact, the exact opposite is the truth. And we became heart broken; we felt depressed; shame, shock, guilt, and frustration. But eventually, we came through that difficult stage, and got enlightened and freedom from the shackles of Islam. However painful was the process, we came out strong, confident and happy. Believe us: only after we were out of the bounds of Islam, we realized that how great a feeling it is not to live a lie and to be free. Please look around the world on the TV, the Kaffir people in Northern Ireland, South Africa and Punjab have found peace and are pursuing higher education, prosperity and happiness. You all know that India, Pakistan and Bangladesh (East Pakistan) got freedom on the night of 14 August 1947. The idol-worshiping Indians are progressing well and steadily toward a superpower nation, but Pakistanis and Bangladeshis, who follow “allegedly” the best religion and ‘greatest prophet and human being ever on earth’, are struggling to exist as nations. India is building 1,200 km fence to stop the hungry Muslims from crossing into India.

We the ex-Muslims will have no greater joy than seeing you – the Muslim brethren of our birth-religion – progress, prosper and excel in the race of civilization. For that to happen, leaving the false, backward, unjust and cruel religion of Islam and walking the path of truth and justice and loving humanity is essential.

May God bless you abundantly.

Yours truly,

Roman (An Ex-Muslim)

A man throughout his life debated and destroyed falsehood, he died at the age of 87. So Jesus didn't do him anything until when he was 87years?! Does that make any sense to you?! Why didn't Jesus just take his life in 1975 or 1981,why 2005?!

If your Jesus wanted to show his power, why are his books still used by Muslims today?! There's a point in his book I used and no Christian, I mean no one christian could refute and you open your silly dirty mouth that Jesus dealt with him! Coward jesus that allowed a man to expose him for over 60years!

The question is not how long the man lived, but whether or not the curse he invoked on himself happened. The man said, "If I am lying about Jesus may I be struck dumb". He was later struck dumb AFTER MAKING THAT STATEMENT, and he remained dumb until the day of his death.
The question of how long he lived simply isn't relevant in this regard.

I actually don't know if this is a global thing, but I've come to notice it a lot around people here, especially the guys.

You see a single woman that is successful at what she's doing, and then the next thing that comes to your mind is to start opining that she must be bitter cos she's in her 30s or approaching 40 and not married. These are the kind of people that feel that for a woman, marriage is the biggest achievement that can happen to her. That no matter what a woman has in life, if there's no marriage, then she's not made, not minding the fact that many married women are silently suffering in their marriage.

In turn, this same thought process goes on to affect the woman as she starts getting desperate and starts having a very low self esteem. The pressure gets to the point where they end up going from one church to the other and in so doing may fall into the prey of men solely looking out for these kind of women to exploit. Only those bold enough to shake off the society's expectation of a woman can actually hold their head high and not give a hoot about what anyone says.

Even women can be their own enemies when a married lady starts using another's singlehood to insult her. In my opinion, that is way below being petty. Now the trend is when people see fine pictures of single ladies on social media, the next question is "where is her husband?", "...who go marry this one wey don reach 30something?", "...too bad that she's this rich and fine with no husband"... poor reasoning I.M.O.

Ladies/Women, your first priority when it comes to happiness is yourself, and not to cater to the happiness of the society. Granted, you may have wanted to marry in your 20s, but if that isn't /wasn't the case, why go on killing yourself about it? Develop yourself the more, be beautiful to yourself, get that money rolling, the career moving, that business booming. If need be, get a baby papa and get yourself pregnant and train the child yourself!. If teenagers can have unwanted pregnancies and still see the child through childhood, successful women can surely do better!

While that last part may not lie well with many, my point still is that you shouldn't go through life thinking having a husband would be your guarantee to having a fulfilled life. Having a great family is beautiful, if you don't have one, align your priorities and have your options open as to what really you CAN DO to make yourself more happy with YOUR LIFE.

Sad to say but this warped mindset is usually found in women. To be specific, it is found in those women who would never have amounted to anything in life if they had to stand on their own two feet. These are the type of women who are consumed with envy when they hear of single, successful, self-made women.

Answer the question. Today a black man is the president of America. Can you say that about Saudi Arabia or Iran?
You muslims rush to go to these country, when your own Arab countries spy at you anytime you are in their countries.
My friend, a Muslim convert to Christianity was taken to Saudi Arabia to be a baby sitter. The treatment she got over there made her to convert to Christianity when she got back to Nigeria. She saw pure evil in Islam. That was when she saw Islam in its true light.
The people she worked for treated her like an animal. She was being spied at. Yes women are prisoners there, but she was a prisoner inside the prison.

Am reading this Book written by a Muslim lady, Wafa Sultan. 'A God who Hates'. Right now I totally understand why muslims are the way they are. Satan is in the helm of affairs in Islam.

I've read that book too. God bless that brave woman Wafa Sultan for speaking when others cowered in fear. I hear that some mullahs have denounced her and this is very worrying because it is usually the first step that Mulsim clerics take before passing a death sentence for apostasy.

"Hope you get everything you wish for" What if she wishes for someone other than you, burnaboy?

Definitely I agree with this...in this wonderful paradise we called it "earth" ,marriage is not for everyone.. and so what if a lady will stay single for the rest of her life? Simply bcoz she doesn't want complicated things..

And not to mentions, so many marriage are broken as well..why? Coz a lot of couple thought they married the right person or they were juz forced to marry someone they do not love...

#singleforlife

You just broke a lot of hearts
