IT IS a good thing to make people laugh! But the joke is on Steve Nibbs.

Every time he writes about Islam and Muslims, like J Adams, Ian Hunt, he makes a mess and proves me right.

For example, he quoted the Holy Quran yet he wrote he did not open the book!

Now he writes that Thomas Carlyle had condemned Islam in his book “On Heroes, Hero-Worship, and The Heroic in History.” And yet he did not give us any references.

“From the first rude times of Paganism among the Scandinavians in the North, we advance to a very different epoch of religion, among a very different people: Mahometanism [=Islam] among the Arabs. A great change; what a change and progress is indicated here, in the universal condition and thoughts of men!” With these words, Thomas opened his chapter of the book above.

Mr Nibbs must tell us that the quotations I’ve used were something I invented.

Until he does that we can conclude that Mr Nibbs is a man who writes about Islam he doesn’t know.

So far, in my letters I’ve written that the gentlemen mentioned above do not have the knowledge about Islam yet they keep writing about Islam.

So far, we have not heard any proof from them. So far, we’ve learned how much they know about the subject they’re writing about.

It’d be a good idea if they took my advice and picked up a copy of the Holy Quran and studied it without preconceived ideas.
