Fragments Show Oldest Koran May Be Older Than Muhammad

Aug. 31, 2015 - Last month some fragments of the world's oldest Koran were carbon-dated by experts at the University of Oxford. It was determined that the parchment might even predate Muhammad.

"It destabilizes, to put it mildly, the idea that we can know anything with certainty about how the Koran emerged – and that in turn has implications for the history of Muhammad and the Companions," historian Tom Holland tells the Times.

Keith Small, from the University of Oxford's Bodleian Library, said this could mean that Muhammad's early followers used a text that was already in existence. In that case, they would have shaped it to fit their own political and theological agenda. It would also mean that Muhammad did not receive it as a revelation from heaven.

Islamic apocalypse starts this year or next

Mar. 31, 2015 - An article in the Islamic information site, Discovering Islam, claims to have calculated the soon-coming apocalypse from the Sunni theological perspective.

"Based on our numerical analysis of the Quran and Hadith, the official beginning of the End of Time and the coming of the Imam Mahdi will most likely be in 2015 (or 2016) and Jesus Christ will come down from Heaven to Earth in 2022."

Iran birth drive 'turns women into baby-making machines'

Mar. 11, 2015 - In the recent past Iran has tried to restrict the country's population with contraception subsidised by the state. However, two proposed new laws would reverse this trend and stimulate new population growth. One of the new laws would outlaw promoting birth control and another law would makes it harder for women without babies to get jobs.

"The authorities are promoting a dangerous culture in which women are stripped of key rights and viewed as baby-making machines," said Hassiba Hadj Sahraoui, Middle East and North Africa deputy director at Amnesty International.

Source: BBC

Editor's Note: This development is undoubtedly linked to Iran's plunge in population growth. Read the 2011 review by Reuven Brenner in Forbes, explaining a fascinating book about this phenomenon in the Islamic world, and how it threatens the very existence of Islamic Civilization -- Book Review: How Civilizations Die (and Why Islam is Dying Too). Islamic leaders are aware of this problem, and, in our opinion, it may be an important factor in their belief that the End of Days is approaching. This, in turn, could be the motivation behind their bold, possibly suicidal jihadist extremism.
