Some Frequently Asked Questions about Islam
1. What is Jihad
2. What is Islam's view on Terrorism
3. What is Islam's view on obedience to the Law of the Land
4. What is the punishment for blasphemy in Islam
5. What is the punishment for apostasy is Islam
and 2 others
The content of the pamphlet and the BS that the kids were told is un-fucking-believable.
Islam is a religion of peace and muslims are instructed to 'turn the other cheek' (forgive the phrase).
Islam instructs muslims to abide by the laws of the land and the laws of the prophet.
Women are not inferior to men in Islam
No punishment for apostasy
No punishment for blasphemy
Produced by something called the Ahmadiyya Muslim Association UK
Probably needless to say, but I've made an appointment to meet with the head and RE teachers.
That is in accordance with Ahmadiyya beliefs, but it's still just flat out wrong for religions to have access to kids to extol the merits of their faith. It's no different than having Coca Cola come and advertize at the kids. That's not why parents or society has their kids go to school.
