Agnostic Jewess understood Holy Qur’an

[Rehmat]

Lasley Hazleton (born 1945) is a British-American Jewish female psychologist, author, writer and blogger – with focus on religion, politics and history. She is a former Jerusalem-based reporter for the TIME magazine. Her articles have been published in several other Jewish-owned media, such as, The New York Times, Esquire, Vanity Fair, The Nation, The New Republic, Harper’s and the New York Review of Books. She speaks Hebrew and English fluently.

Lasley Hazleton has delivered several lectures on Holy Qur’an, which shows her understanding of the Divine message of the ‘Final Testament’ (watch a video below).

Lasley describes why most westerners fail to understand the message of Holy Qur’an by giving the example of the 19th century’s great scholar and historian, Thomas Carlyle, who highly praised the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) but called Holy Qur’an a book filled with ‘mumbo-jumbo’. The reason being – the westerners are used to the Bible and Talmud, which are full of stories that have made good scripts for some of Hollywood’s great movies.

Some of the other Islamophobe-stereotyping, she have made fun of – are the so-called ‘killing of non-Muslims (dhimmies)’ and the 72 Virgins. She explains that Holy Qur’an only allows the killing of non-Muslims in self-defence – in defense of Muslim lands, communities and the evildoers who want to destroy Islam.

As regard the story of 72 Virgins in paradise – Lasley Hazleton says that it’s a myth created many centuries after the death of the Prophet Muhammad (pbhu). Her comment on this topic reminded me of Michael Moore’s version of the 72 Virgins. He wrote in his book ‘Dude, Where’s My Country?’

“As far as those other religions (Judaism and Islam) go, two points of clarification. One, there are never going to be seventy-two virgins waiting for you up here. We haven’t had a virgin up here since Jesus’ mother, and you’re not getting anywhere near her……And, two, there is no “Promised Land”. That big truck load of of sand I dumped in that horrid little strip between the Mediterranean and the River Jordan? NOBODY was supposed to live on it, let alone fight over it to the point where it may result in the end of the world. I did not give that land to Israelites (none exist these days except among theArab Muslims and Christians)…. God has spoken”.
