                   methods to secure personal supremacy of Muhammad because it legitimizes violence by
                   inspiring belief in the myth of paradise and encourages deception to win battles.

                          The Prophet Muhammad was an orphan without any paternal inheritance, yet he
                   rose to be the ruler of Arabia and founder of the Arab Empire. It shows the magnitude of
                   his dominance-urge, which he executed masterfully:

                          He prepared a plan of personal power and holiness in which God (Allah) acts as
                   his factotum. Islam insists that:

                   1/.  To be a believer, the confession of Muhammad's Prophethood is the most essential
                   element of faith be-cause belief in Allah alone counts for nothing. Thus a Jew, a Christian
                   or a deist is an infidel, and shall go to hell.

                   2/.  A person is not Muslim unless he treats the Prophet as the Model of Behavior and
                   imitates Muhammad's way of life in all details. As he was an Arab, his non-Arab follower
                   has to live as a cultural satellite of Arabia.

                          This is the reason that the Prophet bestowed very high reverence on his
                   motherland and its institutions. For example, a Muslim, no matter where he comes from,
                   is obliged to prostrate, at least five times a day toward Mecca, Muhammad's birthplace;
                   he must not defecate facing this City; even after death, his body must be buried facing
                   Mecca to qualify for Divine mercy.

                          The net result of this Arab-worship is that the non-Arab Muslims, especially from
                   India and Africa, have more reverence for Arabia and less for their own countries. This is
                   the attitude that has made them (non-Arab Muslims) the spiritual slaves of Muhammad's
                   motherland at the expense of their own.

                          This is what makes Islam a complex   plan of Arab Imperialism, although packed
                   in an alluring box of internationalism. Stated simply, it means that higher the stature of a
                   nation, the greater the prestige of its leader and cultural institutions. Again, greatness is
                   achieved by might and not meekness irrespective of how moral, mellifluent or
                   mesmerizing it may look. Only a mighty nation is the fountain of mirth, majesty and
                   marvel. Thus, for making the Arabs a powerful nation, the Prophet turned them into a
                   fighting force by prescribing Imperialism as the goal of their existence and appointed
                   JEHAD as the fundamental doctrine for achieving it.

                          This statement is not based on fantasy but hadiths i.e., the sayings of the Prophet,
                   which actually gladdened, guided and goaded the Arabs to stake their lives in bloody
                   battles to secure secular ascendancy and paradisiac hopes. See the truth for yourself:

                   1/.  About the Jews, the Prophet said: "The Hour will not be established until you (the
                   Arabs) fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jewwill be hiding will say 'O
                   Muslim! there is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him.'"
