Fighting From Within

Irshad

"When Muslims put the Prophet on a pedestal, we're engaging in idolatry of our own. The point of monotheism is to worship one God, not one of God's emissaries. Which is why humility requires people of faith to mock themselves - and each other - every once in a while ... Clearly, I’m as impure a feminist as I am a Muslim.  The difference is, offended feminists won’t threaten to kill me. The same can’t be said for many of my fellow Muslims. What part of 'no compulsion' don't they understand?" - Irshad Manji, tireless campaigner for reform within Islam, and author of "The Trouble With Islam Now".
