What has happened to Religion Research Institute?
« on: June 23, 2017, 02:42:43 PM »
The website for Dr. Rafat Amari's  research has been down for weeks?

What a tragic loss. I did search his name and found a FaceBook page. If you FaceBook (I don't) you might ask him.

Always check the Internet Archive (Wayback Machine) for sites that are down:

Dates archived

There are links to individual papers in this site, that may have been archived individually. Copy and paste the link into the archive.

You can find links at the bottom of the thread at the following link, to copy and paste into the Internet Archive, the first one of which I tried was indeed archived:
http://www.islamchristianforum.com/index.php?topic=1091.0

It might be good to do that to all and download before they disappear forever.

Thank you for the help.

The website is back "up", however, it is replaced by a totally different layout and just has a template. I tried to reach the institute via email but it did not go through. I will try to contact by email. I think Dr. Amari passed away a few years back.

Don't know how I missed this email, but back when I started this thread there was only a few sketchy panels on the site, and I even was concerned that Muslims got the .com somehow. However today I found that all of the papers are back online, and religionresearchinstitute.org redirects to http://rrimedia.org/
Great to see them back!

New updates have been added to the site. Also the book is back up for purchase on Amazon. Unfortunately it is only one book.

Hi Patricio. I watched the video on Ishmael.
Daniel Amari must be son or brother of Dr. Rafat.

It's a great book and very well supported through historical and absolute absence of archeological evidence, while other ancient Arabian towns have lots of historical evidence! I contend that any Muslim with  even the remotest capacity for critical thought, would walk out of Satan's religion after realizing that there is not even any historical support that Mecca ever existed prior to around the 4th century AD when migrants from Yemen initially settled the area.
