Fewer missionaries now seeking to convert Jews and Muslims
By Rabbi Allen S Maller
“The decline in Baptist missionaries is due to financial limitations and not to a growing belief in religious pluralism. Southern Baptists have seen a decline in membership, dropping from 16.3 million in 2003 to just under 15.5 million in 2016. With the money saved by the reduction of full time foreign missionaries, the Baptists will likely expand their efforts to convert Jews and Muslims in the U.S…”

When I say “wicked,” I mean inimical to human progress and therefore against Allah’s guidance and His purpose for mankind.

Islam is a religion of Love, and the Taj Mahal proves it
By Haroon Moghul
“I propose we see it as a vision of what Islam used to be, and what Islam could be, a building dedicated to love, and to love across boundaries that seem more like vast chasms today. Shah Jahan was a Sunni ruler from a Sunni dynasty. His beloved wife, however, was Shiite. Far from being doomed to fight, they fell in love. They married. They produced the next emperor. And they are now buried peacefully beside one another…”
