Deny the Prophet

Deny Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), his teachings and his life. Such is the teaching of the Cult of Abd al-Wahhab. See Ali for more. I link to Ali because he ends so well. 1400 years of women’s presence, and a bunch of overly-hormoned men who are afraid of women wish to deny the existence of women, and take the name of Prophet Muhammad and Islam to do it. Haramzadeh ibn Shud-bewaqufi indeed. Technorati Tags: Mecca, Saudi Arabia, Women
