“A truth that's told with bad intent
Beats all the lies you can invent.”
― William Blake, Auguries of Innocence

“ضع في يدي القيد ألهب أضلعي
بالسوط ضع عنقي على السكين

لن تستطيع حصار فكري ساعة
أو محو إيماني و نور يقيني

فالنور في قلبي و قلبي في يدي
ربي و ربي ناصري و معنيني”
― يوسف القرضاوى

“It's not radical Islam that worries the US -- it's independence”
― Noam Chomsky

“There is no God but Allah and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.”
― Anonymous, القرآن الكريم

“I become more than ever convinced that it was not the sword that won a place for Islam in those days. It was the rigid simplicity, the utter self-effacement of Hussein, the scrupulous regard for pledges, his intense devotion to his friends and followers and his intrepidity, his fearlessness, his absolute trust in God and in his own mission. These and not the sword carried everything before them and surmounted every obstacle.”
― Mahatma Gandhi

“If greatness of purpose, smallness of means, and astonishing results are the three criteria of a human genius, who could dare compare any great man in history with Muhammad?”
― Alphonse de Lamartine, History of Turkey

“The Orient and Islam have a kind of extrareal, phenomenologically reduced status that puts them out of reach of everyone except the Western expert. From the beginning of Western speculation about the Orient, the one thing the orient could not do was to represent itself. Evidence of the Orient was credible only after it had passed through and been made firm by the refining fire of the Orientalist’s work.”
― Edward W. Said, Orientalism

“نحن المسلمين !
ديننا الفضيلة الظاهرة ، الحق الأبلج.
لا حجب ولا أستار ولا خفايا ولا أسرار.
هو واضح وضوح المئذنة . أفليس فيها ذلك المعنى ؟
هل في الدنيا جماعه او نحلة تكرر مبادئها وتذاع عشر مرات في اليوم
كما تذاع مبادئ ديننا نحن المسلمون ،على ألسنة المؤذنين :
أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله وأشهد أن محمداً رسول الله”
― علي الطنطاوي, قصص من التاريخ
