THE NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC SOCIETY, TAQIYYA, AND KITMAN Part Four

The National Geographic Society,

Taqiyya, and Kitman

 Part Four[1]

 

Introduction

Part Three of The National Geographic Society, Taqiyya, and Kitman exposed the lies behind the twelve claims made by Salim T.S. Al-Hassani and the National Geographic Society that appear on page 14 of 1001 Inventions The Enduring Legacy of Muslim Civilization, third edition, National Geographic Society, Washington, District of Columbia: 2012. Part Four will expose the lies behind the nine claims of Muslim contributions that appear on page 15 of that book.

            Before the documented evidence is presented to show that none of the statements on page 15 of 1001 Inventions are true in their completeness, an addendum to Part Three is of the utmost importance. The matter at hand is Part Three, Number 5. Exploration Ibn Battuta.[2] The claim and the commentary are herewith repeated:

 

Number 5. Exploration Ibn Battuta (1304-1368/70)

STATEMENT: Ibn Battuta traveled more than 75,000 miles in 29 years through more than 40 modern countries, compiling one of the best eyewitness accounts of the customs and practices of the medieval world.

 

TRUTHFUL COMMENT: The logic is faulty. Ibn Battuta traveled during this time, yet these countries were not modern. There are maps of Ibn Battuta's travels.[3] The travels/explorations did take place. The statement indicates the best in Ibn Battuta's eyewitness accounts concerning the customs and practices of the medieval world. In fact, the racist, demeaning descriptions are probably more interesting than Ibn Battuta's travels. Here are some of Ibn Battuta's comments on the places and peoples he encountered during his travels.[4]

  Ø "Of the neighbors of the Bujja, there is no marriage among them; the child does not know his father, and they eat people – but Allah knows best. As for the Zanj, they are people of black color, flat noses, kinky hair, and little understanding or intelligence."
  Ø "The geographer Al-Idrisi ascribes 'lack of knowledge and defective minds' to the black peoples. Their ignorance, he says, is notorious; men of learning and distinction are almost unknown among them, and their kings only acquire what they know about government and justice from the instruction of learned visitors from farther north."
  Ø "Like the crow among mankind are the Zanj for they are the worst of men and the most vicious of creatures in character and temperament."
  Ø "[inhabitants of sub-Saharan African countries] are people distant from the standards of humanity" "Their nature is that of wild animals...."
  Ø "We know that the Zanj (blacks) are the least intelligent and the least discerning of mankind, and the least capable of understanding the consequences of actions."
  Ø "They [the Shu`ubiyya] maintain that eloquence is prized by all people at all times – even the Zanj, despite their dimness, their boundless stupidity, their obtuseness, their crude perceptions and their evil dispositions, make long speeches."
  Ø "Galen says that merriment dominates the black man because of his defective brain, whence also the weakness of his intelligence."
  Ø "As regards southern countries, all their inhabitants are black on account of the heat of their climate... Most of them go naked... In all their lands and provinces, gold is found.... They are people distant from the standards of humanity."

"The Zanj are so uncivilized that they have no notion of a natural death. If a man dies a natural death, they think he was

Thank you so, so much for writing this. Although I'd heard of this exhibit, I've longed wondered about some of these claims.

My theory,is that a lot of these "Muslim inventors" were actually first generation converts (originally probably Jewish but maybe Christian) who would have had the inquiring mind capable of inventing things.

Greetings Susan Benton and others:

I thank you for your kind words. Take my word that you must look behind what any Muslim says. If you want to learn a lot about the many tricks of Muslims and Islam, begin with http://wikiislam.net/wiki/Islam_and_Propaganda .

I do not know how many parts my series on The National Geographic Society, Taqiyya, and Kitman will have. I would like to take 1001 Inventions and examine it page by page. I am only up th page 17 now. The book has 311 pages of text with so-called Muslim facts. I went through about 10 pages this morning and found lies on every one of the ten pages that read. Should I undertake this kind of an examination, the process would last over one year. I have to research every lie and document the truth. Interestingly enough the book 1001 Inventions does not document what it claims to be the truth.

I hope that I have interested you in the falsities of Islam.

Spread the word that you cannot believe what Islam says, unless you believe in lying.

I thank you all for reading my articles.

Fredrick. I had a quick read. But noticed one thing you didn't catch. Sake Dean Mahomed who introduced shampooing to the UK was not a Muslim, but a Christian. He converted years before his involvement in shampooing. Married an Irish lady in an Anglican ceremony. His children were all baptized. His grand-child (Rev. James Kerriman Mahomed) even went on to become the vicar of Hove, Sussex.
