I have found bringing this up to useful idiots shuts them the fuck up. Two simple questions. How many times is Palestine mentioned in the Koran and how many times is Israel. It’s a simple as that.
Interesting and informative essay. Although not in the Quran, the Gharqad tree is mentioned in Hadith literature (sayings attributed to the Prophet Muhammad). In these narrations, the Gharqad is described as the “tree of the Jews” that will protect them during apocalyptic battles at the end of times. It is written in the Hadith that trees will reveal if a Jew is hiding behind it, except for the Gharqad, which is described as the "tree of the Jews." I've tried to purchase such a tree at various nurseries, one even managed by a Muslim, but none knew what I was talking about or had ever heard of it. If anybody knows of where to purchase such a tree, kindly share.

You ask a rhetorical question, but ever even after reading this, I am still not sure what the snappy answer is. It's not simple to me, please share.
Another historical question just out of curiosity: when the Jews were kicked out of Spain in 1492, where the Muslims also kicked out?
Anyway, I have never before read anything even remotely similar to this. Thank you
Awaiting word on this from the Islamic studies professors at Harvard and Columbia and an in depth analysis from the great NYT
As a former Muslim of 28 years, I couldn’t agree more with this excellent article. Stay gold.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

A long-awaited and vital piece of information. Thanks.
