Islam Quotes
Abu Huraira reported that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon hlm) said: I have been given superiority over the other prophets in six respects: I have been given words which are concise but comprehensive in meaning; I have been helped by terror (in the hearts of enemies): spoils have been made lawful to […]
In defiance of traditional immigration patterns, Europe’s young Muslims are less assimilated than their parents and grandparents. Instead of becoming more European, they’re becoming more Islamist.
