"Sal a combatir sea cual fuere tu condición. Contribuye a la causa de Allah con tus bienes y lucha" (sura 9:41). "Yihad" es una palabra árabe que significa simplemente lucha, pero se suele interpretar por Guerra Santa. Por desgracia, hoy, está en boca de todo el mundo en esta sangrienta acepción. Hace catorce siglos el islam nacía bañado en sangre y al día de hoy no parece que esto haya cambiado mucho.

In just over a hundred years - from the death of Muhammad in 632 to the beginning of the Abbasid Caliphate in 750 - the followers of the Prophet swept across the whole of the Middle East, North Africa, and Spain. Their armies threatened states as far flung as the Franks in Western Europe and the Tang Empire in China.

Most terrorism experts agree: it is not "if" we are attacked again, but "when." Yet the assault has already happened. A silent battle is being waged on our nation every day. Not with guns and bombs, but via covert sources: Islamic charities, the ACLU, even presidential candidates.

What is the legally prescribed penalty, if any, for apostasy (al-riddah), and how does this relate to the demand for religious tolerance as stipulated in verse 2:256 of the Qur’an “There shall be no compulsion in matters of faith”?

This work charts new territory in Islamic scholarship by attempting to address the field of public policy from a maqasid (higher objectives of the Shariah) perspective. Public Policy is an independent discipline from both law and politics.

Is Ezekiel’s Wheel a mystical allegory—or an inevitable physical reality heading straight for our skies? For decades, the apocalyptic vision of the Mother Plane has been treated as debate or doctrine. But divine judgment is not a metaphor—it is an unyielding, physical law.
