Should Proselytism In West Be Prohibited
January 21, 2008
Christian proselytism is discouraged, where not outright prohibited, throughout the Muslim world and Muslims who convert to Christianity (or any other religion) are subject to death according to Sharia law. Ironically, this situation is not applicable to the Muslim communities in the West: for where Muslim clerics struggle against the Christian missionaries in Islamic countries, Muslim missionaries in the West enjoy many freedoms and may welcome new converts.
The laissez-faire Western attitude concerning Muslim missionaries must be reviewed to deal with the case in the West regarding the principle of reciprocity – whether or not one is to sanction Islamic proselytism or prohibit it depends on how Islamic institutions perceive freedom of religion.
Westerners have the right to get clear answers from Islamic organizations in the West as to (1) Muslim attitudes toward Christianity and Judaism; (2) whether it is permissible for Muslims to covert to Christianity or any other religion; and, (3) whether those who leave the Islam may go about their lives absent threats on their lives from the community to which they belong. These are questions that must be addressed to representatives of “Western” Islamic organizations.
This can be done by starting a dialogue with Islamic organizations which work within Christendom. Important preliminary knowledge can be obtained from the Koran, the holy text of Islam. Once familiar with Koranic views on religion, Westerners will then be able to engage in dialogue with “their” Islamists.
We should now review some Koranic texts that pertain to religion.
