Lmao, only when it's islam or arabs. If a book was made against black people, jewish people, gay people, or any other kind of people, it would be strongly condemned. There's a reason why it's taboo to say the n-word, do blackface or raise a swastika because it's hate speech.

I should mention in the beginning two noble verses in the Holy Quran which teaches us that there are 7 heavens and 7 orbits one above another lying in a flat space. Let us start with chapter 78 verse 12 in the Holy Quran which tells us what means: "And Constructed above you seven strong (heavens)". This noble verse among many others teaches us that there are 7 heavens. Then let us see the surat al Muminun verse 17 in the Holy Quran which tells us what means: "And indeed, We (Allah) Created above you 7 levels (roads). We (Allah) Are never unmindful of (Our creation)". This noble verse teaches us that there are 7 roads of the heavens. When taken together, the above-mentioned noble verses teach us that there are 7 universes like balls moving in 7 orbits and lying in a flat space. On the other hand, there are additional noble verses in the Holy Quran that teach us that the orbit of our universe is not circular but instead elliptical. This is because these nobles' verses tell us that there are two extreme travel distances between the earth and the 7th heaven: In one case it is mentioned in surat Maarij chapter 70 verse 4 in the Holy Quran that the time needed for the Angles and holy spirits to ascend from the earth to the 7th heaven takes a Day in the time frame based on the 7th heaven which corresponds to 50000 years in the time frame based on the earth. In the other case it is mentioned in surat al Sajeda chapter 32 verse 5 in the Holy Quran that the time needed for the commanded affair to ascend from the earth to the 7th heaven takes a Day in Allah's clock which corresponds to 1000 years in the Human's clock based on the earth. The Quran's description of the flatness of the cosmos is perfectly consistent with the standard cosmological model, representing a new scientific miracle of the Holy Quran. As you see there is no contradiction between the noble's verses in the Holy Quran and these noble's verses majestically complete each other. This proves that the Holy Quran is the words of God and the noble prophet Mohammed (PBUH) is the last messenger of God. But only Allah knows best.

When words win people lose.

"Midnight's Children" is my favorite of his books.

People who lose their temper to the point of violence over nothing more than words are behaving like little children.

The US built Iran's nuclear program under a program called "Atoms for Peace" in the 1950s and 60s. It all blew up in their face when the Shah was overthrown in 1979 and the religious fanatics won the power struggle and turned Iran into a theocracy.

What a fine line between trying to put the interviewer's opinion on the interviewed and teasing out critical answers. I think he gave the most important one: it is not islam, it is it's abuse that has to be critcized. Even today a lot of leaders who mix religion with politics use this deception technique to paint every critic as an opponent of the people's religion. Criticising the foreign politics of Israel is not per sé antisemitism. Criticizing some conservative politics or sexist policies in the arabic world is not an attack on Islam. As long as we are educated well enough to see the difference, we are also immune to such abusive politicians. And I believe this is the biggest fear of these politicians: an educated people that sees them for who they are - bad politicians, not for who they claim to be - heroic defenders of Islam (or any other religion).

It is mentioned in the Holy Quran that the ages of the universe and the earth are 6 and 2 days respectively in the time frame based on the 7th heaven. One can calculate the ratio of the universe to that of the earth as follows: R = age of the universe/age of the earth = 6 days / 2 days = 3 On the other hand we know that the dynamic age of the universe is 13.77 billion years and the radiometric age of the earth is 4.55 billion years in the time frame based on the earth. One can calculate the ratio of the age of the universe to that of the earth as follows: R = age of the universe/ age of the earth = 13.77 billion years / 4.55 billion years = 3.04 The coincidence between the values of the ratios of the age of the universe to that of the earth in both reference frames means that the God's clock based on the 7th heaven and the Human's clock based on the earth is in perfect correlation. This is because time is not absolute but rather relative as predicted by Einstein's special relativity. It also means that the earth was created for the first time when the age of the universe was 2/3 of its age today in both reference frames based on the 7th heaven and the earth.

Salman Rushdi,being muslim in past as his all relatives in India arre suffering due his action to freedom of expression of grilling muslims,May be he should have balanced/netralused his daily going by by not only by writing Satanic Verses but expressed in written against Mosses,Jews,Jesus,Christian,who have crimefull past to colonis and robbing world,espacially slavery,Stealing land of native Americans,and Natives of Australia,and massacring them all and stealing thier land in service to King or Queen of England,Andas well as Kings and queens of other colonial powers, May be muslims feel that Salman and other writers have pinpointing just Islam,but kept silence for other religions & faith who have won the wars just means of much brutal means,and took over innocent world to shape geography of this world, and they were Christisn nations,And not for getting It was Christians who are futher responsible for Workd war 1st workd war 2nd,plusses Atomic bomb attrocity over Japan. Problem is that all People who dream to get reach to top in west,must keep silence about the Horrors done by Christian Countries,and colonisation,snd esoacioally,stealing vast chunks of land,massacring thier native,abd at last stealing thier country and land.,But furher more get more fame and get acceotness by shunning rightly or wrongly just religions and countries,who have lost,against all the countries who have invaded,and shape the world.And Whole different thing is to mention Christian Nazis eho slautered millions of Jews,Ever writers are very carefull about to criticise Nazis Germany,And Salman Rushdy will not mention To criticis Chrustian Catholics,Nazis ,what horrors they did,And then horrors of In Israeli accupied territories against hated people of palastinians,being going thru same hate as Nazis against Jews,and being silence about.becsuse that is against the law,what is happening infronrmt of eyes,and talk about ,horrible holocust. It is always profitable to critices the loosers,but siding with trend of winners.

Assalam alaykum

Born in India, of a Muslim family, often hidden press.

This is the price you pay when you criticize the barbaric Islam.

Setting aside whether what he did was wrong or right. I am unsure as to why he thought that this would not have had the reaction that it did given the context (the Muslim religion). Dealing with religious zealots is like dealing with insane people who can't/won't listen to reason. This is not a bone that those folks will let go.

except the book he wrote wasn't a critique of islam. that's like calling black people the n word, and then saying it was a critique of BLM movement.

We pronounce a death sentence. And it's not even his business. It's a message to other muslims to think about what they say before they say it. Unbelievable.

What is the punishment for blasphemy in Islam? There is no punishment in Islam for blasphemy. No such punishment is prescribed in the Holy Quran, or in any of the traditions of the Prophet Muhammad(sa). Islam promotes the need for respect of all religions for the sake of peace in society, but it does not set out any punishment for blasphemy despite the offence it may cause people of faith. We have evidence in the traditions of the Holy Prophet(sa) where Abdullah bin Ubayyee (Chief of the hypocrites) continuously abused the Prophet(sa), and opposed him severely in Madinah. When he passed away, the Prophet(sa) stood to offer his funeral prayers but was asked by one of his companions, “O Allah’s Apostle! Do you offer the prayer for this man although he said so-and-so on such-and-such-a day?” and “that he is a hypocrite!”. The Prophet(sa) ignored his statements and continued to offer the funeral prayers of the dead man. (Sahih Bukhari, Volume 6, Book 60, Number 192) The above example shows that the Prophet(sa) never ordered any punishment for anyone who insulted or abused him or God; on the contrary he went to pray for them that they be guided aright. If somebody uses foul language against any holy person or teaching, Islam advises to keep away from such people as The Holy Qur’an says, And when you see those who trifle with our signs then turn thou away from them until then engage in a discourse other than that and if Satan cause thee to forget then sit not, after recollection, with the unjust people. (Ch.6: V.69) A book “ Rushdie Haunted by his unholy ghosts ” is a good read on this subject.

I should mention in the beginning two noble verses in the Holy Quran which teaches us that there are 7 heavens and 7 orbits one above another lying in a flat space. Let us start with chapter 78 verse 12 in the Holy Quran which tells us what means: "And Constructed above you seven strong (heavens)". This noble verse among many others teaches us that there are 7 heavens. Then let us see the surat al Muminun verse 17 in the Holy Quran which tells us what means: "And indeed, We (Allah) Created above you 7 levels (roads). We (Allah) Are never unmindful of (Our creation)". This noble verse teaches us that there are 7 roads of the heavens. When taken together, the above-mentioned noble verses teach us that there are 7 universes like balls moving in 7 orbits and lying in a flat space. On the other hand, there are additional noble verses in the Holy Quran that teach us that the orbit of our universe is not circular but instead elliptical. This is because these nobles' verses tell us that there are two extreme travel distances between the earth and the 7th heaven: In one case it is mentioned in surat Maarij chapter 70 verse 4 in the Holy Quran that the time needed for the Angles and holy spirits to ascend from the earth to the 7th heaven takes a Day in the time frame based on the 7th heaven which corresponds to 50000 years in the time frame based on the earth. In the other case it is mentioned in surat al Sajeda chapter 32 verse 5 in the Holy Quran that the time needed for the commanded affair to ascend from the earth to the 7th heaven takes a Day in Allah's clock which corresponds to 1000 years in the Human's clock based on the earth. The Quran's description of the flatness of the cosmos is perfectly consistent with the standard cosmological model, representing a new scientific miracle of the Holy Quran. As you see there is no contradiction between the noble's verses in the Holy Quran and these noble's verses majestically complete each other. This proves that the Holy Quran is the words of God and the noble prophet Mohammed (PBUH) is the last messenger of God. But only Allah knows best.

as usual, people who are upset about a book have not actually read the book!

Insulting and defaming the most beloved man in world and spreading lies misinformation whilst wrapping it a gauze of history, he got exactly what he asked for.
