Love Watch Catalogue

I-Karen Armstrong: Objective, scholarly views from an objective scholar

Placed under the "Love Watch" category because only by being objective and truthful about right and wrong can the playing field be levelled, and a meeting point between west and Islam come more within reach. Love!

Karen Armstrong never apologizes for Islam or Muslims, she states facts that are and have been out there for anyone to see for ages, already well-established and corroborated by numerous academics, historians, and scholars, the majority of whom are non-Muslim. She does not invent nor need to invent anything.

She only puts the available data to the public in an effort to educate, and thus close the divide that haters on both sides are trying to widen.

A big thank you to her and to everyone like her who is honest and sincere in doing the right thing, which also helps in bringing people together through facts and truth.

(Topic: A new mosque in Toronto in renovated stables)

Quotation from the article" "A Jewish couple invited children attending the mosque to pick apples in their backyard. "It was very moving," Imam Bangash said. Not long ago, the centre held a service where every member of the congregation was asked to bring someone who was non-Muslim. The mosque was packed. "The congregation was thrilled by the result," Imam Bangash said. And after a Mennonite pastor, Gordon Alton of Stouffville, left his card at the mosque following Sept. 11, 2001, with the message "Please know you have friends in the community," Imam Bangash said, he "broke all the rules of Islam" and invited Mr. Alton to preach at the mosque. "I think never in history had that been done before," he said, "but I felt we needed to return [his] gesture." Close Quote.
