Islam Is Not an Abrahamic Faith

Western minds struggle when attempting to understand Islam as a purported "religion of peace". Clarity of understanding eliminates this cognitive dissonance.

Islam is a "religion of peace" in the sense that after the world is subjugated under Islam, the world will be at peace.

Islam is a religion, but not just a religion. It is an all-encompassing, rigid, authoritarian social, economic, and political system. Apostasy is punishable by death.

This is explained in the article Why Islam is not an Abrahamic faith, by Dr. Michael Krampner, Israel National News, 14 January 2026. The article is a review of the book Islam, Israel and the West: A Former Muslim’s Analysis, by Danny Burmawi. Excerpts from the review follow.

The Islamic Forever War against Israel is a continuation of Islamic history and not an aberration. Peace with Israel in this view, is not only impossible-it is heretical...

Muhammed is uncritically considered the ultimate example of all values. That is why blasphemy laws are so common in the Moslem world, not to protect Allah's honor, but to protect Muhammed's. It is also why Moslems often react violently (as in the famous Charlie Hebdo case in France, or by trying to murder the author Salman Rushdie) to criticism of Muhammed...

In the Moslem world Jews and Christians are not considered infidels because they deny G-d but because they deny Muhammed...

Because Muhammed's life is supposed to be the model for all things, Islam cannot be apolitical...

His life was and is the model of how to do these political things and that makes Islam fundamentally different than Judaism and Christianity. It makes Islam as much a political ideology as a religion. The Qu'ran repeatedly emphasizes the duty to establish Islam and Sharia law in the world as a unifying political system. 'This is not symbolic.' says Burmawi. Rather, 'It is expansionist in design and strategic in execution.'...

Although the Islamic war against Israel is often mistaken for a dispute about land, territory or borders it is nothing of the sort, says Burmawi. It is an Islamic crusade, a theological struggle, to eliminate Judaism and Jewish sovereignty in the Middle East...

To advance the cause of eliminating Israel the Islamic world hijacked the name 'Palestine' which had belonged mostly to Jews during the British Mandate and created a new, artificial and reactionary 'palestinian' identity solely for the purpose of delegitimizing the Jewish state...

There is no difference between an ordinary Moslem and an Islamist in Burmawi's view since the doctrine is infected with expansionist, Sharia-supremacist and Islamic-exclusivist ideas and other doctrines alien to a free and open society...
