Quadrinity vs Trinity

Since many Muslim apologists like to attack other religions, it is only right to point out some of the big flaws in their own religion. In response to Muslim attacks on Christianity's doctrine of the Trinity, it is only right to point out that there is actually a Trinity in Islam also; No, it should be called a Quadrinity.

The Quadrinity of Islam

It is:

A few simple questions to ask all Muslims:

  1. If you removed Muhammad from Islam, would there still be an Islam? The answer is a straight No.
  2. If you removed the Qur'an from Islam, would there still be an Islam? The answer again, is No.
  3. If you removed Allah from Islam, would there still be an Islam? Once again, the answer is No.
  4. If you removed the Ka'aba from Islam would there still be an Islam? The answer is No.

The Ka'aba is the temple that all Muslims must bow to everyday, whenever they pray. They cannot face any other thing or direction. This means that without the Ka'aba, Muslims cannot pray (and please Allah). If Muslims cannot pray to Allah five times per day, then Islam is finished. There you have it - a Quadrinity in Islam.

Idolatry in Islam

Idolatry is rampant within Islam, but why is it so?

First of all, to be ordered by Muhammad and Allah to bow to Muhammad's birthplace five times every day, and also to pray only in Muhammad's language (Arabic); being forced to speak lots of Muhammad's language every day - this is all undeniably forced idolatry. Secondly, the Qur'an commands all Muslims to follow the example of Muhammad. The Qur'an does not command, tell or even ask Muslims to follow the example of Moses or Jesus or Abraham; not David or anyone else. the Qur'an explicitly commands Muslims to follow the example of Muhammad only. Thirdly, Muslims idolize Muhammad (whether they will admit it or not). So much so that they try to follow everything that he did; including the way he dressed, the way he thought, the way he keeps his moustache and beard, what he likes and dislikes, what he said, his superstitions, etc.

Next, Muslims go even further in their idolization of Muhammad by performing the Hajj and the Umrah. This is when they go all the way to Muhammad's birthplace and perform all the ridiculous rituals that Muhammad performed - those that the pagans performed before Muhammad. They even go to Medina, where Muhammad became rich and powerful - and tyrannical - in order to continue their idolization of Muhammad. Muslims only celebrate Muhammad's birthday. They do not celebrate any other prophet's birthday at all. Again, further idolization of Muhammad. The last example is this: Whenever Muslims pray their compulsory prayers, they have to give blessings to Muhammad and to Muhammad only. Their prayers to not include any blessings on any other prophet at all - only Muhammad gets this special treatment. This is yet another clear example of idolizing Muhammad.

The list goes on and on, but these facts are enough to prove that idolatry is indeed prevalent in Islam. Undeniably, Islam is in fact Muhammadanism.

Conclusion

The truth is that there is nothing wrong at all with the Trinity, and there is actually nothing wrong at all with idolatry, but since many Muslim apologists like to condemn other religions, then it is only fair that we should point out that their own religion is replete with a Quadrinity and also with idolatry.
