More than seven centuries ago, Imām Shihāb al-Dīn al-Qarāfī recorded almost this exact objection to the Qurʾān's account of the Crucifixion and answered both parts of it. The objection today is essentially: 1. The Crucifixion is established by history; Islam only denied it centuries later. 2. If someone else was made to resemble Jesus, then God deceived people and destroyed the reliability of human perception. Remarkably, these are precisely the first two questions al-Qarāfī treats in this section of al-Ajwibah al-Fākhirah. He first records the Christian argument: “They said: The Jews and Christians are two immense nations spread throughout the eastern and western regions of the earth, and all of them report that the Messiah was crucified. They are of such number that their collusion upon a lie is impossible; and the Gospel likewise reports the Crucifixion…” (al-Ajwibah al-Fākhirah, p. 179) Their argument is if Muslims dismiss testimony of this magnitude, then the very principle of tawātur, mass transmission yielding certainty, collapses. One could then deny reports about places such as Baghdad or Damascus and ultimately undermine even Muslim appeals to mass transmission themselves (pp. 179–180). He distinguishes the enormous number of people who eventually believe and repeat a report from the number and independence of those from whom the report actually originated. For genuine tawātur, he writes, the condition must exist not merely at the end of the chain but at both ends and throughout its intermediary stages: “The second condition: that the two ends and the intermediary stages be equivalent [in satisfying the conditions of mass transmission].” (p. 181) If millions of later believers ultimately depend upon a small or non-mutawātir originating body, their later multiplication does not travel backward in time and transform the original report into mass eyewitness testimony. His principle is simple: A million repetitions of a report are not a million independent witnesses to the event. Or, put differently: the size of a belief’s descendants cannot automatically be transferred to the strength of its ancestral evidence. That is why al-Qarāfī insists that if the evidentiary condition fails at the root, multiplying the branches cannot retroactively repair it (pp. 181, 184–185). He then makes another important distinction. What does sight itself establish? Al-Qarāfī argues that perception may establish: “A man is being crucified upon this cross.” But the further proposition: “This particular man is certainly Jesus son of Mary.” is an additional judgment of identity. The event perceived and the identification of its subject are logically distinguishable (pp. 182–184). So even before debating the miracle itself, al-Qarāfī separates two propositions that are often collapsed into one: someone was crucified ≠ it has therefore been established with infallible certainty that the crucified individual was Jesus. One may still construct a historical argument for the Crucifixion using other evidence; al-Qarāfī’s point is more precise, which is that the later numerical universality of Christian belief cannot simply be projected backward and called continuous independent eyewitness tawātur. Then al-Qarāfī records the second objection and it is astonishingly close to the modern “Allah is a deceiver” argument: “They said: To affirm that the likeness was cast upon someone other than Jesus leads to sophistry, to falling into ignorance, and to conclusions unworthy of rational people.” (p. 190) The objection then argues: If God can make another person resemble Jesus, how can I know that my son is really my son? My wife is really my wife? My friend is really my friend? Perhaps another person has been given precisely their appearance. In other words: If miraculous misidentification is possible once, has God destroyed the reliability of sight altogether? Al-Qarāfī answers: “This is mere rhetorical exaggeration upon which no reliance can be placed.” (p. 190) Why? Because the objection illegitimately moves from: God can exceptionally create a miraculous resemblance to: therefore every ordinary perception must permanently be doubted. Those propositions do not follow from one another. An extraordinary divine act does not abolish the ordinary course of the world. And al-Qarāfī turns the argument directly back upon his Christian interlocutors: their own scriptures affirm transformations more extraordinary than one human being resembling another such as Moses’s staff becoming a serpent and other miraculous alterations of created things (pp. 190–191). If accepting a single miraculous transformation destroyed all empirical knowledge, then Biblical miracles would produce exactly the same skepticism. Yet no Christian reasons: “Moses’s staff became a serpent; therefore I can never again know whether the stick in my hand is really a stick.” The possibility of a miracle is not the presumption of a miracle. Al-Qarāfī therefore distinguishes: what ordinarily occurs from what God may exceptionally bring about as a miracle. And, crucially, he does not frame the event as God maliciously manufacturing Christianity. He frames it as God rescuing Jesus from enemies who intended to seize, humiliate, and kill him, describing such deliverance as: “that which befits the generosity of His favors in His beneficence toward His chosen prophets and saints.” (p. 184) So the Qurʾān's narrative is not: “God wanted mankind to believe a false religion.” It is: Jesus’s enemies plotted to kill God’s messenger; God frustrated their plot and rescued him. Everything later inferred by human beings from the event is not thereby transformed into something God Himself asserted. Indeed, Qurʾān 4:157 does not say, “God revealed to mankind that Jesus had been crucified.” It says: “Rather, it was made confused/resembling to them,” and immediately adds: “They possess no knowledge concerning it except the following of conjecture; and they certainly did not kill him.” So the Qurʾān’s own argument is precisely about the difference between appearance, inference, and certain knowledge. The irony is that what is presented today as an obvious modern objection “History says Jesus was crucified, and substitution would make God a deceiver” was already formulated in a considerably more sophisticated form by al-Qarāfī’s Christian interlocutors over seven centuries ago. And al-Qarāfī did not answer it with “trust me.” He answered it by asking what historians and philosophers of testimony still have to ask: What exactly was observed? Who observed it? How independent were the original witnesses? How was the report transmitted? When does later consensus constitute evidence for the event itself? And why should the possibility of an exceptional miracle annihilate the reliability of ordinary perception? Those are epistemological arguments. Calling the Qurʾān “a guy 600 years later saying trust me bro” does not answer them. [Imām Shihāb al-Dīn al-Qarāfī, al-Ajwibah al-Fākhirah, pp. 179–185, 190–191.]
Muslims think Jesus wasn't crucified because a guy 600 years after the fact said "trust me bro", which not only contradicts history but also makes Allah a deceiver.

Diaspora Islam is survival Islam. It asks: "How do I stay Muslim in a non-Muslim land?" It does not ask: "How do I build a civilization?" It cannot. The conditions prevent it. So the diaspora Muslim bcomes an expert in identity maintenance, halal food,Islamic schools, anti-racism

The Almohads and Almoravids ruled large parts of Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, and Iberia, but Morocco today does not own all those territories simply because Moroccan dynasties once ruled them
British ruled India for 200 years French ruled Algeria for 120 years that didn’t make them the owners of those lands

Stop falling for the Zionist psyop. Mass Migration to the West is not Dawah. No Omar….you’re not Salahudin 2.0 because you live on German welfare while working at a kabob stand. Yair Netanyahu told you openly what they are doing. Stop falling for it.

The African influx into Spanish territories have nothing to not a thing to do with Jihad or conquest. It’s entirely nationalistic tribalism with Moroccans and leftists calling for Ceuta to be returned to Morocco, despite Morocco never owning it, or calling for the balkanization.
Muslims who support this nonsense are inviting Reconquista 2.0 We should want the wars AND mass migration to end.

You are taxed more heavily than a medieval serf. The average Canadian family now surrenders 42% of its income to the state. That's more than it spends on food, shelter, and clothing. Combined. A serf paid his lord and his church around 40%. So you already pay the higher rate. But what did he get for his 40% that you don't get for yours? The serf got land he could never be evicted from. A house. Firewood. Protection. A court that had to hear him. You get audited. Policed. Priced out of the cities your parents bought into on one income. He was buying a life. You're renting your own country. And this isn't an accident, or waste, or one bad government. It's the design. Canada was built as an extraction colony and it never once stopped being one. The flag changed three times. France. England. Now Washington. The thing being extracted changed too. Fur. Timber. Wheat. Oil. You're the current one. Follow a single dollar you earn. It's skimmed before it reaches you, taxed when it lands, taxed again when you spend it, inflated while it sits still, and taxed one final time the day you die, on money you never even cashed out. Nine tax gates. From your paycheque to your grave. I mapped every one of them. Who runs the machine. Why the hardest-working people in this country can never get ahead no matter what how hard they try. And exactly what it would take to end it. Article link in the next post

America, and Americans, are the two worst things to happen to any authentic religion. Just as they turn nutritious, ethnic cuisine into goy slop, they also turn religion into its fast-food equivalent.
Islam will not be imported to America. Muslim immigrants are a largely unremarkable ethnocentric minority. Islam will itself be reborn in America. Malcom X + Mormons are proof of this.

The FBI is offering a $50,000 USD reward for information leading to the arrest of Satinderjeet Singh, also known as Goldy Brar. Authorities allege he leads the Lawrence Bishnoi Organized Crime Group’s North American operations, which they say has ties to Edmonton and is linked to violence, extortion, drug trafficking and shootings across Canada.

I must of missed the boat on “Tengri Shaman philosophy”.
US Pres faux pas and memes aside. Islam is ☪️ ancer, doesn't belong in Japan (or the majority of the rest of the world) and seeks to ruin and destroy all cultures and natural religions under it's garbage thumb and books. Any of the good things people praise it for, such as philosophy, was taken from Persia, Greece, India, and Turkic Tengriism. Any of the cool tribal aspects and aesthetics men are attracted to can be found in other traditions. Don't care if this seems unbalanced compared to my usual takes. Islam is garbage. Muhammad probably didn't even exist in a true historical context. Heaps of hot coals and 💩 be upon him. The Kaaba is a rebranding of an old Pagan site. Dune is cool theoretically but it isn't true "Islam". 🙏🏼 P.S Yes some Muslims can be good people just like anyone can. Doesn't mean their religion isn't terrible.

Nick Fuentes says he can tolerate the veneration of the pagan "European gods" but not Islam! Just like the jews in Medina who said the pagan religion of the Arabs was better than the monotheism of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ!
