why do some people here say that i dont have a right to criticize Islam or any other religion?

Question

if we can criticize politics, cultures, social customs and ideas and a host of other things, why not religion?

and why does the koran decree execution for those who criticize or leave islam? from where did the muslim god get this right?

so does it mean that islam has a 1 way ticket which means that if you want to turn back and run away from islam you get murdered?

when will decent human beings stand up and hit back at such cowards who believe that they need to silence islam critics?

ex muslim / free thinker

Answer 1

You can say what you like you will be judged come time.

Answer 2

Well, its a free world. You have the right to criticise but then others also have the right to criticise you especially when they see your criticism to be based on your own wrong notions and not based on any facts. So always be ready to face criticism when you are criticising things you have no knowledge about.

Where does the Quran decree execution for those who cricise Islam? Did you dream this? On the contrary, Quran clearly says in a no. of places to the prophet (and through him to the Muslims) not to despair if people are not understaidng the message of God. Why? Because the Prophet's (and Muslims') duty is to convey the message, to accept or reject is individual's responsibility.

You don't get "murdered" for turning away from Islam. However, if you have been living in a Muslim state and have been a Muslim, then you turn away from Islam and then you go one step further and join forces with the enemies and conspire agsainst Muslims THEN you will be subjected to some punishment. Simply renouncing Islam is never a threat to Islam. Its that person's own lack of grey matter in the cranial cavity.

Answer 3

Well, that just it, now. We can't criticize-if one political group doesn't like what the other says, then they're "mean spirited", if we don't agree with a culture, we're "racist", and "haters". If we don't agree with the social customs, we're all of the above, plus "small-minded" and "fundamentalist". It's no surprise at all that there are objections to criticizing a religion, because in the new world order, ALL religions are equally good and equally justified, except, that is, Christianity-the only religion that is inherently evil and the cause of ALL misery.
The fact is, you have every right to criticize and judge and weigh the pros and cons of anything you want to. If you stop exercising this right, say hello to the world of "1984".

Answer 4

Speaking as a Muslim i believe you have 100% right to critize Islam or any other religion for that matter. What you dont have the right to do is print lies like they are fact or try to spread hatred and propeganda that is something very different. See your doing it again. Islam does not say that it does say "let there be no compulsion in religion" Do you hear that NO COMPULSION!
You are the coward posing as an ex muslim, posing as a woman, cloning others accounts. Critizes Islam all you want but do it with facts and truths. I know you need to look up the definition of these two words first though.

Answer 5

You have the right to critize anything you want, and certainly the Qu'ran does not tell you to accept things without checking for the truth. It is only through learning/knowledge that we become better believers!
But it seems you are not interested in searching for truth but instead in discrediting Islam to the best of your ability! Here is a suggestion: Read the Qu'ran!

Answer 6

excuse me !but who are you to critisize the Islame?if you were really muslim as you pretend to be.then you will defintly know that the islame is a peacefull religion which order the people to be merceyfull ,gentle and to take care of each other.
but from your words I can say that you haven't complete a page on the Qur'an and don't even understand it.
oh, and you can find in the historical books that the Spanish killed the muslims in spain and ordered the rest to change thier religion and become christian or they will be killed too

Answer 7

Actually you can say whatever you want.Nobody is gonna murder you or anything like that.I mean really,who cares which religion you're in?Who cares what you believe in?Islam do not teach murder nor violence but if those extremist Islam(A teaching which is NOT Islam and has nothing to do with Islam) wanna kill you, I've got two words, TOO BAD!

Answer 8

You have every right to critisize them. I heard a good quote once that I use frequently on Christians, " If I told you that the sky was made of Purple spaghetti sauce would you correct me?" And most of them either say Yes or they would put me in an insane asylum. They make my point exactly.

Answer 9

Universal Declaration of human rights

Answer 10

If you are in America, you have the right to criticize anything and anyone you want. It's called Freedom of Speech.

Answer 11

You do have a right to criticize other religions, everyone else does. It only goes too far when you make false accusastions.
