Islamic Hoaxes - 4

“Muslims are educated and forward”


Now have a look at what Dr. Ibrahim B. Syed (a renowned Muslim apologist and scholar) has got to say:

“In India , the national male literacy rate is 54%, but the Muslim male literacy rate is 18%. The national female literacy rate is 38%, whereas the Muslim female literacy rate is less than 5%.

The average literacy rate for Muslims of the world is around 38 percent and in rural areas in Muslim countries, the illiteracy rate among Muslim women is 93 to 97 per cent. In spite of comparable levels of development the mean rate for literacy for the Muslims is 35 per cent lower than that for the Third World , and 40 percent below the world’s average.


The data suggests that almost two-thirds of the Muslims worldwide are illiterate. This low level of literacy, evidently, is responsible for the grinding poverty, the backwardness, and the deplorable conditions under which the vast majority of the Muslims live at present….” (refer to irfi.org ).


That shows Muslims are more bothered about going for jihad or just limit themselves in memorizing Quran. How do you expect them to scrutinize the real Islamic dogma and reform it? Mission Impossible!
