Islam, Violence, and Interpretation

This chapter explores the relationship between Islam and violence, discussing how justifications for violence are embedded in core texts like the Quran. It compares the interpretative traditions of the Bible and the Quran, highlighting the absence of a non-literal interpretation in Islam. The impact of the left-wing's denial of the violent philosophy within Islamic theology and the mistreatment of women based on Quranic and Islamic traditions are also addressed.
