More Islamic fiction masquerading as truth in Wikipedia propaganda

[PeteWaldo]

Certainly members of this forum, as well as even minimally educated literate people of most any stripe, should find this "History of Islam" Wikipedia article to be typical of the Islamization of Wikipedia. Like so much other false propaganda generated by the father of lies, it makes reference to "Muslim beliefs" as if they had anything to do with history, when those beliefs cannot even begin to be supported by scripture, history or archaeology, let alone being absolutely condemned by matter of fact physical geographical impossibility. This renders the Wikipedia article that pretends to discuss the "History of Islam" as nothing more than promotion of Islamic historical fiction regarding any pre-Muhammad history of Muhammad's cult invention.

"Muslims believe that the religion of Islam has been present since the time of the prophet Adam. Muslims believe that prophets Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, among others, were all Islamic prophets, and they have equal veneration in the Qur'an."

Guffaw! And this is what Wikipedia masquerades and parades around as history! What it leaves out is that Muslims believe all of that on the basis of pure fiction, that was all created from thin air and put to the pen in the 8th to 10th centuries AD, without reference to any actual historical record from before the 5th century AD.

Instead of having anything to do with history, the Wikipedia article couches its lies with the typical ridiculous and transparent qualifiers like "Muslims believe....", as if that has anything whatsoever to do with actual pre-Muhammad history. Yet Wikipedia fails to put it in an article titled something more appropriate like "The unhistorical anti-history of Islamic so-called 'tradition'"

God gave Muslims and everybody else the free will to believe in the tooth fairy if one is so inclined, but simply because a person wishes to believe in the tooth fairy, doesn't mean she will magically come true.

On a note of comic irony I was hit by a pop-up, in which Wikipedia appeals for donations, in order to protect its independence!

Article Masquerades Unhistorical Beliefs as History

This is the kind of article through which Wikipedia looses considerable credibility. When articles contain the word "history" in their very title, readers should have the right to expect that at a minimum, it is about history. Yet within the first few sentences of the article we read:

"Though it is held by non-Muslims to have originated in Mecca and Medina, Muslims believe that the religion of Islam has been present since the time of the prophet Adam. Muslims believe that prophets Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, among others, were all Islamic prophets....."

Non-Muslims hold that position because of the historical and archaeological records, while the entirely unhistorical Muslim "beliefs" cited have nothing to do with history but rather spring from Islamic so-called "tradition", that was created and put to the pen in the 7th to 10th centuries AD without reference to any actual historical record that preceded the 5th century AD. Let alone that there is not a shred of scriptural, historical or archaeological evidence that supports the geographical impossibility of Islamic tradition regarding persons from thousands of years before Muhammad. Those "beliefs" should be moved to an article titled something more like "What Muslims Believe" or "Islamic Tradition" rather than presented to masquerade as history. If someone disagrees then the burden is on them to present some historical and archaeological evidence that supports Islam's antihistorical "beliefs". PeterWaldo (talk) 16:27, 7 September 2015 (UTC)

I also edited the first paragraph of the article from:

"The history of Islam concerns the religion of Islam and its adherents, Muslims. "Muslim" is an Arabic word meaning "one who submits to God". Muslims and their religion have greatly impacted the political, economic, and military history of the Old World, especially the Middle East, where its roots lie. Though it is held by non-Muslims to have originated in Mecca and Medina, Muslims believe that the religion of Islam has been present since the time of the prophet Adam. Muslims believe that prophets Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, among others, were all Islamic prophets, and they have equal veneration in the Qur'an. The Islamic world expanded to include people of the Islamic civilization, inclusive of non-Muslims living in that civilization."

"The history of Islam concerns the religion of Islam and its adherents, Muslims. "Muslim" is an Arabic word meaning "one who submits to God". Muslims and their religion have greatly impacted the political, economic, and military history of the Old World, especially the Middle East, where its roots lie. Because of the absence of historical and archaeological record non-Muslims understand Islam to have originated in Mecca and Medina. Beginning in the 7th century the Islamic world expanded to include people of the Islamic civilization, inclusive of non-Muslims living in that civilization."

Further revision:

"Beginning in the 7th century the Islamic world expanded to include people of the Islamic civilization, inclusive of non-Muslims living in that civilization."

To:

"Beginning in the 7th century the [[Islamic world]] expanded to include people of the Islamic civilization, while consuming non-Muslims living in that civilization."
