The Two Hour Quran by Dr. Bill Warner, Dr. Warner holds a PhD in physics and math, NC State University, 1968. He has been a university professor, businessman, and applied physicist. He was a Member of the Technical Staff in solid-state physics at the Sarnoff Princeton Laboratories in the area of integrated circuit structures. During the energy crisis of the 80s he founded and ran a company that specialized in energy-efficient homes. For eight years he was a professor at Tennessee State University in the Engineering School. Dr. Warner has had a life-long interest in religion and its effects on history. He has studied the source texts of the major religions for decades. Even before the destruction of the World Trade Center, he had predicted the war between Islam and America. The day after 9/11 he decided to make the source texts of Islam available for the average person. Dr. Warner’s training in scientific theory and mathematics shaped how he analyzed Islamic doctrine. The first step was realizing that the Islamic texts had been made deliberately difficult to read and comprehend. A program, the Trilogy Project, was created to strip away the confusion in the texts. It became clear that Islam is not constructed on the same civilizational principles as the rest of the world. Simple statistical methods revealed that dualism and submission were the foundational principles of Islamic doctrine.

My objective tonight is to educate you about radical Islam and to help you answer these 5 questions:

When and where did Islam begin?
Who was Muhammad?
What did he teach?
Is Islam a peaceful religion?
Can the Quran be trusted?

A Muslim is sometimes spelled Moslem and relates to a person who follows the religion of Islam a monotheistic and Abrahamic religion based on the Quran. Muslims consider the Quran to be the verbatim word of God as revealed to the Islamic prophet Muhammad. They also follow the teachings and practices of Muhammad as recorded in traditional accounts called Sura and Hadith. The word "Muslim" is the Arabic word meaning "one who submits." Islamic beliefs commonly held by Muslims include: that God (Arabic: الله‎ Allāh) is eternal, transcendent and absolutely one (monotheism); that God is incomparable, self-sustaining and neither begets nor was begotten; that Islam is the complete and universal version of a primordial faith that has been revealed before through many prophets including Abraham, Moses, Ishmael and Jesus; that these previous messages and revelations have been partially changed or corrupted over time and that the Qur'an is the final unaltered revelation from God called The Final Testament.

Here is a part of what the Quran has to say about Jesus: Quarn 5:109 "One day Allah will assemble the messengers and say, "What response did you receive from mankind?" They will say, "We have no knowledge. You are the knower of secrets." Then Allah will say, Oh Jesus, son of Mary, remember my favor to you and your mother when I strengthened you with the Holy Spirit (with reference to Gabriel) so that you would speak to men alike in childhood and when grown. I taught you the Scriptures, the wisdom, the Torah and the Gospel, and you created the figure of a bird with clay, by my permission, and breathed into it. With my permission it became a bird. You also healed the blind and the leper, with my permission. With my permission you raised the dead. I restrained the children of Israel from harming you when you went to them with clear signs. and the Kafir (Unbelieving Jews) said, "This is nothing but plain sorcery." When I revealed to the disciples, "Believe in me and the One I sent", they said, "We believe and bear witness to You that we are Muslims." 3:54 So the Jews plotted and Allah Plotted, but Allah is the best of plotters. And Allah said, " Jesus I am going to end your life on earth and lift you up to me, (indicating that Jesus did not died on the cross, he was taken to Allah and will return to kill the Anti-Christ and then die a natural death). 4:171 People of the Book (Christians) Do not overstep the boundaries of your religion and speak only what is true about Allah. The Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, is only Allah's messenger and his word which he sent into Mary was a spirit from Allah So believe in Allah and his messengers and do not say "Trinity." (The Quran states that the trinity really refers to Allah, Jesus and Mary) Hold back and it will be better for you. Allah is only one God. Quran 61:6 Far be it from Allah to be a son! And remember when Jesus, son of Mary said, Children of Israel!" I am Allah's messenger sent to confirm the Law which was already revealed to you and to bring good news of a messenger who will come after me whose name will be Ahmud or Muhammad. (This last quote about Jesus in the Quran is not found in any Christian scriptures.)

John 2:20-23

20 But you have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things. 21 I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth. 22 Who is a liar but he that denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denies the Father and the Son. 23 Whosoever denies the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledges the Son has the Father also.

The religious practices of Muslims are enumerated in the Five Pillars of Islam, which, in addition to Shahadah, consist of daily prayers (salat), fasting during the Islamic month of Ramadan (sawm), almsgiving (zakat), and the pilgrimage to Mecca (hajj) at least once in a lifetime.

A Muslim is a person who has dedicated his worship exclusively to God through the teachings of Muhammad. The word Islam means making one's religion and faith God's alone. The majority of Muslims are Sunni, being over 75–90% of all Muslims. The second largest sects, Shia, make up 10–20%. Islam is the second largest and one of the fastest-growing religions in the world.

Muhammad is usually referred to as Prophet Muhammad or just The Prophet by Muslims, and regarded by them as the greatest of all the prophets, and his established religion as the only accepted religion to God (Quran 3:19). He is seen by Muslims as a possessor of all virtues. He was Born in about 570 AD into a respected Quraysh family of Mecca. Muhammad earned the nickname "al-Amin" (Arabic: الامين), meaning "the Faithful". At the age of 40 in 610 AD, Muhammad is said to have received his first verbal revelation in a cave named Mount Hira, which was the beginning of the descent of the Quran that continued up to the end of his life; and Muslims hold that Muhammad was asked by God to preach the "oneness of God" in order to stamp out idolatry, a practice overtly present in Arab society.

To Muslims, the Quran is the verbatim word of God which was revealed, through Gabriel, to Muhammad who delivered it to people without any change (Quran 26:192-195, 53:2-5). Thus, there exists a deep relationship between Muhammad and the Quran. Muslims believe that as a recipient of the Quran, Muhammad was the man who best understood the meaning of the Quran and was its chief interpreter, and was granted by God "the understanding of all levels of Quran's meaning". In Islamic theology, if a report of Muhammad’s Quranic interpretation is held to be authentic, then no other interpretative statement has higher theoretical value or importance than that.

In Islamic belief, though the inner message of all the divine revelations given to Muhammad is essentially the same, there has been a "gradual evolution toward a final, perfect revelation" and susequently includes the writings of the Hadith and the Sura. It is in this case that Muhammad's revelation excels the previous ones as Muhammad’s revelation is considered by the Muslims to be "the completion, culmination, and perfection of all the previous revelations".[133] Consequently, when the Quran declares that Muhammad is the final prophet after which there will be no future prophet (33:40), it is also meant that the Quran is the last revealed divine book, consisting of three Mecan Quran, Sura and the Hadith (Wikipedia 1.)c

There are three writings that constitute the Muslim belief called the Quran. Most of the non radical Muslims observe the Meca but there are two other writings that offer more of the latter revelations and teachings of Muhammad and if observed becomes radical Islam or Jihad. The other two writings are the Hadith and the Sura as described below:

The Hadith are a compilation of little stories that Muhammad passed down orally and was written down 18 years later like, war is deceit, a story that encourages lying to the unbeliever. I will have more to say about that later on. Some of the stories were just one or two sentences and others were large paragraphs.

The Sura is Muhammad's 800 page biography, which includes his histroy as well as every aspect of his daily life.

Between Hadith & Sira we know more about Muhammad than we will ever know about Abraham Lincoln, Jesus or George Washington. We know about his birth, his family, his intimate habits, how he went to bathroom or had sex or what he did during foreplay, how he spit, how he laid on his back or how he drank from a glass. We know every detail about how he lived his life. Because every Muslim is commanded to do exactly as Muhammad did. In fact the only way you can contextually understand and apply the teachings of the Quran is to do exactly as Muhammad did.

Now we need to understand that the Quran is the foundation of Islam. This is the book that every Muslim refers to, this is the book that has always been, this is the book that is uncreated, this is the book according to Sura 1:85-22 that came from those eternal tablets, that always co-exited with God and therefore is co-eternal with God and therefore this book cannot be critiqued and it cannot be criticized. This book has no history and is revealed to Muhammad between a period of 610 to 632 and according to every Muslim whether they are radical, nominal or liberal. Every Muslim believes that this is the uncreated Quran. The Quran is the greatest wonder of all the wonders of the world, this book is 2nd to none according to learned men with reference to diction, style, rhetoric, thoughts and soundness of law and regulations to shape the destinies of mankind. This book was sent down directly to Muhammad to a man who could not read or write which is a little curious isn't it and was actually written down 18 years after Muhammad's death on the basis of oral diction. (example: tell a story to one who passes it on)

In fact, there are 2 original manuscripts in Sweden that until recently had not been touched but have now been read and compared to the Quran we have today and there are 2,270 manuscript variances or errors and it only goes up to Sura 43 and there are 114 Sura's in the Koran so the oldest original manuscript is not even a complete work. Therefore the premise that we must conclude is that today's Koran is very much fallible if not totally fictitious and that is the basis for every Muslims faith. So if the doctrine in the Quran is wrong then the whole religion is corrupt and people are believing a lie and risking their life and destiny on the falsehoods and the pretensions of deluded men.

So, Let's talk about how the Quran is related to ISIS. President OBAMA says "Isil is not Islamic. No religion condones the killing of innocents, and the vast majority of Isil's victims have been Muslims." (Isil includes the Levant or Lebanon and Israel and Obama is incorrect in his usage of the term.)

There are two suppositions about ISIS:

Radical Islam is new, and is a political reaction:
Radical Islam is not new: follow the book and the man.

The term ISIS: stands for Islamic State of Syria. How many of you believe that the religion of ISIS is Islamic or Muslim? Just about everybody except our president. Radical Islamist defined: the original word for radical is the word root. So a person who is a radical goes back to their roots and that is exactly what ISIS is doing. They are going back to their roots or back 1400 years to Mohammed and the Quran. All we need do is go back to 624 and look at the Islamic state that Mohammed created and what he did to eliminate and kill the Jews until 632 to realize the roots of violence. The basis for understanding the very confusing book of the Koran is to look at what Muhammad did and copy it verbatim. So what did he do?

What is Islam? Are you a Muslim? Do all Muslims practice Islam?

The Koran is 18% about Allah & 80% about Muhammad.

Meca is where Muhammad lived the first 13 years of his life and constitutes the Mecan part of the Quran. During this time of his life he preached a doctrine of peace and tolerance. Meca says esentially: Let there be no compulsion in religion, you have your religion & I have mine. (Sounds like 1st Amendment: freedom of religion.) This is what most non radical Muslims practice today, but if they read the whole Quran they are familiar with the portions that tell about Muhammad's military conquest and violence and every Muslim is commanded in the Quran to do as Muhammad did and that is the danger of the roots of ISIS. Ibn Taymiyah (Ibee na Ti Hema) says that in order to be a true and faithful Muslim you must read the book and follow exactly what the man did.

After 13 years in Mecca Muhammad moved to Medina where his doctrine became dualistic and changed from religious to political and incorporated violence and extremism. ? In fact Quran has 149 Sword verses that advocate violence against the Kafir or the unbeliever

Here is a radical interpretation of Sura 5:31-32 "We ordained for the children of Israel that if anyone slew a Muslim not in retaliation of murder, or to spread mischief in the land, it would be as if he slew All Muslims; and if anyone saved a Muslim, it would be as if he saved the life of all Muslims.

Sura 2:190-193 Those who fight you, do not transgress limits, and slay them wherever you catch them, until there prevail faith in Allah.

Medina: 8:12 You shall cast terror into the hearts of the Kafir. Strike off their heads & strike off the very tips of their fingers. kind of sounds like terrorism, doesn't it?

SWORD VERSE AGAINST CHRISTIANS AND JEWS: SURA 9:29 MAKE WAR UPON SUCH THOSE TO WHOM THE SCRIPTURES HAVE BEEN GIVEN AS BELIEVE NOT IN ALLAH, OR IN THE LAST DAY, AND WHO FORBID NOT WHAT ALLAH AND HIS APOSTLE HAVE FORBIDDEN… UNTIL THEY PAY TRIBUTE.

So to understand the context of these verses you must follow the example that Mohamed left. Was Muhammad pro-Jewish or anti-Jewish? And the answer is yes, he was both. In the first writings of Meca it is pro-Jewish in the Hadith and Sira it is anti-Jewish. There were no Jews in Mecca but when he moved to Medina it was half Jewish & they did not believe in Muhammad & his religion. The first 13 years of Muhammad's preaching using Meca with the message of peace he had 150 converts. After 13 years He he moved to Medina where he became a politician and a warlord & for the next 9 years there were 100,000 converts or about 10,000 a year. Why? Every 6 weeks for the last 9 years of his life he went to war: and the emphasis was not a religion of peace but a political Jihad with the emphasis of believe or die. So from 624-633 Mohamad was in 29 battles & he was planning 39 more. Within two years of entering Medina he started confronting the Jews in battle. Then in 627 in the battle of the trenches he lined up the last Jewish families in Medina which consisted of 800 men, he had then dig a trench & kneel in front of it & he cut off their heads & threw them in the grave they dug for themselves, all in one afternoon. That is the example Mohammad left for his followers to emulate. Remember to understand the Koran you must read it and do what Mohammad did.

Which one is the real, Islam Meca or Medina & the answer is yes (they both are)

Islam is the doctrine found in the Hadith, Sira and the Quran which are the three writings for Muslims to read & put into practice. So radical Islam is dualistic: its about Allah & Muhammad. Meccan Quran is about peaceful religion even thought the word peace is not used any where in the Quran. If you are ever confronted by a Muslim about their religion being peaceful ask them to give you a scripture and verse and they will not be able to. However the Bible has 400 references to peace, memorize some of them and quote them when you confront a Muslim especially about peace between God and man.

Islam is not what Muslims do or necessarily believe in & practice. It's about what Muhammad did & what he taught about Allah.

So, Let's look at some of the terminology used in the Quran:

Allahu Akbar

Allah is Great (God is Great). It was frequently used by the Muslim forces as their battle cry. The Islamist terroist in France used this battle cry before they gunned down 129 innocent people

Hadith

sayings of the Prophet.

Taqiyya lying to non believers in the form of concealment and dissimulation. The word "al-Taqiyya ”literally means: "Concealing or disguising one’s beliefs, convictions, ideas, feelings, opinions, and/or strategies at a time of eminent danger, whether now or later in time, to save oneself from physical and/or mental injury.”

kitman

The practice of deception or legal trickery), consisting of the art of making ambiguous statements, paying lip-service to authority while reserving personal opposition, in a kind of political camouflage

Kafir (used 421 times in the Quran)

The language of Islam is dualistic. As an example, there is never any reference to humanity as a unified whole. Instead there is a division into believer and kafir (unbeliever). Humanity is not seen as one body, but is divided into whether the person believes Mohammed is the prophet of Allah or not.

Kafir is what the Koran and Islam call the unbelievers. Kafir is the worst word in the human language.

Christians and Jews are infidels, but infidels are kafirs, too. Polytheists are Hindus, but they are also kafirs. The terms infidel and polytheist are religious words. Only the word “kafir” shows the common political treatment of Christian, Jew, Hindu, Buddhist, atheist and humanist.

The word kafir should be used instead of “unbeliever”, the standard word. Unbeliever is a neutral term. The Koran defines the kafir which is not a neutral word. A kafir is not merely someone who does not agree with Islam, but a kafir is evil, disgusting, the lowest form of life. Kafirs can be tortured, killed, lied to and cheated. So the usual word “unbeliever” does not reflect the political reality of Islam. Here are some scriptures in the Quarn that address the Kafir.

Hated- 40:35 They who dispute the signs of Allah [kafirs] without authority having reached them are greatly hated by Allah and the believers. So Allah seals up every arrogant, disdainful heart and is despised by Allah.

Punished- 25:77 Say to the kafirs: My Lord does not care for you or your prayers. You have rejected the truth, so sooner or later, a punishment will come.

Beheaded- 47:4 When you encounter the kafirs on the battlefield, cut off their heads until you have thoroughly defeated them and then take the prisoners and tie them up firmly.

Terrorized- 8:12 Then your Lord spoke to His angels and said, “I will be with you. Give strength to the believers. I will send terror into the kafirs’ hearts, cut off their heads and even the tips of their fingers!”

Annihilated- 6:45 So the kafirs were annihilated. All praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds.

Killed- 4:91 If they do not keep away from you or offer you peace or withdraw their hostilities, then seize them and kill them wherever they are. We give you complete authority over them.

Crucified- 5:33 The only reward for those who war against Allah and His messengers and strive to commit mischief on the earth is that they will be slain or crucified, have their alternate hands and feet cut off, or be banished from the land. This will be their disgrace in this world, and a great torment shall be theirs in the next except those who repent before you overpower them. Know that Allah is forgiving and merciful.

A Muslim is not the friend of a kafir- 3:28 Believers should not take kafirs as friends in preference to other believers. Those who do this will have none of Allah’s protection and will only have themselves as guards. Allah warns you to fear Him for all will return to Him.

Cursed- 33:60 They [kafirs] will be cursed, and wherever they are found, they will be seized and murdered. It was Allah’s same practice with those who came before them, and you will find no change in Allah’s ways.

60% of Koran is about the Kafir not about how to be a Muslim. 81% of the Quran is a biography of Muhammad and is about what he did to the Kafir. Here is the Amount of text in the Koran that is devoted on how they handle the kafir:

Mecan Quran = 0%

Medina Quran = 64%

Surah = 81%

Hadith = 37%

So 60% of the Quran is about how to handle the Kafir and not about how to be a Muslim! It's about what to do with the unbeliever or the non Muslim. How to treat the unbeliever, how to talk to the unbeliever, How to convert the unbeliever & how to kill the unbeliever. Islam is profoundly dualistic. It has two things it will say about every topic. One is religious & the other is political. The religious verses are the stealth coating of the political & the Jihad. So you have good verses in the Quran that support religion but you also have political verses that support the bad. Which one is true Islam? They both are. The religion is a good covering for the bad intent of the Quran & the Muslim and it breeds confusion. The argument is that the intent can't be bad because look at these nice religious verses. Therein lies the deception of Dualist Islam or Dualism.

The Quran is not the Bible of Islam. It's one of 3 sacred texts. Islam is the worship of Allah & the imitation of Muhammad. Political Islam is the doctrine that deals with the Kafir. As a non Muslim you are not a part of the Muslim religion but as a Kafir you are addressed in the Islamic teaching essentially: "To cast terror in their hearts" which is also a part of political jihad.

We must separate political Islam from religious Islam. For example if Muslims commandeer a city street for prayer it is both political & religious. Forcefully taking over a street is political & the prayer they recite is religious. So Islam is both political and religious but the end does not justify the means.

What about Islamic Ethics: what is good for the Muslim is bad for the Kafir. You can be friendly to the Kafir but you can't be his friend. Arabic word Takiah means sacred deception, a deception that advances the cause of Islam. A Kafir can be treated well or badly & both are supported in the Quran as long as it advances Islam.

Radical Islam is nothing more than the Islam of Medina. Moderate Islam is the Islam of Meca or the beginning teachings of Muhammad. Everything that has been stated here has nothing to do with people but only doctrine taken out of the three teachings in the Quran with exception to Muhammad. So Islam is dualistic consisting of Meccan Islam and Medina Islam.

Let's take a short history lesson by looking at the 600 year Islamic saturation in Turkey. Turkey use to be called Anatolia and was the site of the seven churches of Asia. Saul was from Tarsus and Tarsus was in Asia Minor or Anitolia. At that time Anitolia was Greek and Christian until Islam invaded. Whereupon the Christian in Turkey or Anitolia did not get a choice of convert or die but they became subject to the new government based on the Sharia. From 1300 to 1900 the growth of Islam under Sira was 80% and in 2000 it was 100%. Today Turkey is 99.7% Muslim and .3% Christian. This is what happens with Sharia law and political Islam, its not convert or die it is live under the Sharia. Christianity can sustain itself under communism, Christianity can sustain itself under Nazism but Christianity cannot sustain itself under the Sharia. Political Islam does the same thing to Afghanistan which was Buddhist and to Pakistan which was Hindu. Radical Islam is not compatible with anyone else's religion.

With these scriptures and the example of the prophet Muhammad. can you then understand why so many within Islam today are saying what they are saying, and doing what thety are doing.

Their authority, they believe, is the holy writ, a divine authority, modelled by the greatest and clearest paradigm for Mankind, (which is Muhammad) for all peoples, al places, and for all times… including Iraq and Syria today.

In 1920 Hasan Al Banna started the Muslim Brothrhood. His favorite student was Sayid Qutb who had memorized the Koran at age 10 and became the theologian for the Muslim Brotherhood. He wrote 2 books while in prison called "In The Shade of the Koran" and "Milestones". In the first book he takes the message of the Koran and interprets it for the 20th century and has become the textbook for all radicals around the world. One such radical was Ayman Zawahiri who was a very close friend to the very wealthy Osama bin Laden who created Al Queda and now you understand some of their history.

Today the Muslim Brotherhood has no problem with suicide bombers as long as they target Israelis men, women and children or American soldiers. It's ok for men to beat their wives referring to Sura 4 and it's ok for homosexuals and adulteress to be given 100 lashes referring to Sura 24. All these things are put into practice and based on the Koran and what Muhammad did. Out from the teachings of the Muslim Brotherhood's cleric we have the London subway bombers, the shoe bomber, the liquid suicide bombers who tried to board an airplane and currently we have the France suicide bombers and the San Berdino terrorists and the list in only going to grow. Why? Because they are doing what all faithful Muslims are told to do: read the book and follow the man and some will be deceived enough to put that into action. And even if that is a minority it is a problem for the security of every Kafir and especially every Israeli and every American.

One last point. There is no guarantee in the Quran that a believer who practices its beliefs will be permitted into paradise. So you can live a devoted life to the tenants of the Quran and have no guarantee or hope of making it to paradise. There is only once exception to that and that is if you die in the cause of the advancement of Islam then you will be guaranteed direct access to paridise.

Sura 4:74

Let those who fight in the cause of Allah who sell the life of this world for the hereafter. To him who fighteth in the cause of Allah, whether he is slain or gets victory, Soon shall we give him a reward of great value.

Sura 47:4-6

Those who are killed in the way of Allah, He will never let their deeds be lost… And admit them to paradise.

Now you can understand why Political Islam and Jihad is so appealing to so many young men and women who are willing to die for the cause of Allah and join ISIS or groups like it. The danger is going to continue and esculate in these latter days and to be fore-arned is to be fore-armed.

1 Cor 15:51-58

51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, aDeath is swallowed up in victory. 55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? 56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. 57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

Rev 21:1-8

21:1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." 5 He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making everything new!" Then he said, "Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true." 6 He said to me: "It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life. 7 He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son.
