    Examining the "Ten Truths About Jihad" the Muslim Reform Movement's Attempts to Represent a Merciful, Inclusive Islam Are Best Called Fantasy Islam

    Examining the "Ten Truths about Jihad" The Muslim Reform Movement's attempts to represent a merciful, inclusive Islam are best called Fantasy Islam. Learn what the Koran says here. Contact Editor Dr. Stephen M. Kirby, 04/09/17 06:37 Share Dr. Stephen M. Kirby More from the author ► The Muslim Reform Movement (MRM) was founded in early December 2015 in Washington DC by a small group of aspiring Muslim “reformers.” They stated they were “Muslims who live in the 21st century” who were “in a battle for the soul of Islam.” They proclaimed that they stood for “a respectful, merciful and inclusive interpretation of Islam.” According to the MRM’s website, the MRM is now a “Global Coalition of Muslim Reformers.” But from its beginning days, many of these MRM “reformers” had already started creating their own personal versions of Islam, what I call “Fantasy Islam.”[1] Shortly after the MRM’s founding I wrote about that in an article titled “The Muslim Reform Movement Plays Fantasy Islam.”[2] The MRM’s playing of Fantasy Islam has continued, and on August 2nd the MRM posted on its Facebook page an article titled “Ten Truths about Jihad.” It was written by Imam Dr. Usama Hasan, a co-founder of MRM currently residing in London. The article is very appealing, but only because Hasan has thrown much of accepted Islamic Doctrine out the window. Let’s take a brief look at each of Hasan’s ten “truths.” 1 http://www.israelnationalnews.com/Articles/Article.aspx/20973 Jihad is a lifelong, non-violent struggle for goodness, justice and truth against evil, injustice and falsehood Hasan wrote; “The essential Qur'anic teaching about Jihad is that it is a non-violent struggle for goodness of all kinds, and against evil of all types.” He then referred to two Meccan verses of the Koran to support this statement: 22:78 and 25:52.[3] But by relying on Meccan verses to support his claim that jihad is to be understood as a non- violent struggle, Hasan is ignoring a doctrine that is fundamental to the understanding of Islam: the Doctrine of Abrogation.
