FAQs

What is the God protocol?

This is the term I use to define a set template of warning outlined repeatedly in the Qur’an. Under this method, a people (usually, the ruling elite thereof) is warned and, if they do not repent, that community is destroyed in an act of God.

My view is that the world is now ruled by a single elite and that as a result it effectively comprises a single society. That society has been made so degenerate by those who rule it that a further iteration of the protocol is not only necessary, it is the only means by which to prevent unending tyranny.

Why did you do this work?

Because no one else had done it to my satisfaction and I wanted answers to my questions.

Are you a Muslim?

It depends entirely on what you mean. As in so many things, the cultural Muslim is deceptive when it comes to terms, so an answer here requires some nuance.

We will begin with culture. Culturally, I am English, and culturally I gravitate to the Church of England (at least to what it was before it became woke and broken).

But if by the question you mean: do I align myself religiously or culturally with the cultural and racial narrative that has been imported into Western countries since WWII? — then definitely not. I am against that in much the same way I am against all related rot (which includes but is not limited to liberalism, feminism, the cult of progress, transhumanism, political homosexualisation, cultural relativism, mass immigration, and racial miscegenation). In this context, I regard what I call Brand Islam as a single line item in the broader plan of destroying White peoples and their countries.

If you mean: do I identify uniquely with one of the various schools termed Islamic found in the pre-modern period? — then, not really. While I accept that Islamic civilisation was valid in its own time and context, that time no longer exists and that context is not European peoples.

However, if one means by the term what the Qur’an indicates by it — namely: one whose heart inclines to God and has submitted to Him — then here I do agree. But this is not what Brand Islam means by the term — nor is it what non-specialists understand it to mean — which is why engaging with this question is so problematic.

Can I send you my questions about correct “Islamic” practice?

No. 

My advice — if you want it — is to read the Qur’an with a view to understanding what it has to say, and use your common sense. That approach will solve most problems.

Can I talk to you about the number 19?

I have looked at the work of Rashad Khalifa, and I already know as much about it as I have an appetite for. 

If you want to know what my thoughts are in more detail, see the Notes & Commentary to The Qur’an: A Complete Revelation — replicated as notes in the online version of the same (mainly here and here) — or my YouTube channel particularly here.

Can I share my personal Qur’anic theories with you?

I no longer receive messages from this site. 

If you are not a native Arab, why should I listen to you?

I am not telling you to listen to me. I have simply done my own due diligence upon the text of the Qur’an and present my findings. What you do with that is up to you.

However, I would hope that whether you listen to an Arabic speaker or a non-Arabic speaker you would judge each argument on its merits.

So do you see yourself as someone special?

The following is the sum total of the claims I make about myself: 

1. I am able to read a book for myself with my brain engaged and to synthesise the results into a logical output.
2. I am a believing man and — like everyone else at this time — subject to that worldwide system of governance which is a function of the policies of what I call the ruling elites.

Are you saying Muslims don’t understand the Qur’an?

I have no way of knowing how 1.5 billion people understand a particular book, but I must assume that there exists a range of perceptions.

From my review of the current literature of various groups which claim the religion called Islam, however, it was clear to me that a quantum leap from the Qur’an to a religion it does not consistently comport with is required in most cases. 

Given that the Qur’an challenges the reader to consider it with care — and given that nothing I had seen did that to my satisfaction on a purely Qur’anic basis — I undertook that work myself.

If someone else had already produced a body of work which answered my questions I would never have undertaken this project.

Are you saying the Hadith literature is not part of Islam?

Certainly, aḥādīth are part of that cultural narrative called Islam. If you want to know why that is so, ask the people who represent that narrative and then see if their answers make sense to you.

The Qur’an itself says that it is from God and complete and preserved. I accepted that as a working hypothesis and proceeded on that basis.

So how do you pray?

This question is based on an assumed conclusion, namely, that ṣalāt means prayer. But “prayer” is, in the hands of the Traditionalist, a moving target, changing its value depending on what he needs it to mean in a particular circumstance.

If you are interested in my thoughts on this subject, read my article on ṣalāt as part of Addenda to The Qur’an: A Complete Revelation.

Don’t you know that the Qur’an tells us to obey the Messenger?

That’s true, it does.

But it also provides the protocol for entering his house when invited for a meal. However, that is not possible today for a very simple reason which should be obvious.

Are you saying Traditionalist Muslims are not righteous?

That is not my argument. 

I’m saying that their explanations don’t make much sense to me. 

But neither do those of certain Christians, Jews, and many others.

I accept that there are many men who — while their doctrines don’t make sense to me personally — are righteous and will receive a good report on the Day of Judgment.

I am concerned primarily with doing my own due diligence on the Qur’an so that I may hope to answer for myself on that Day also.

I have to critique the Traditionalist, however. Firstly, because it is his habits of mind which have closed down intelligent engagement with the Qur’an and, secondly, because he claims monopoly rights over the book he presumes to prevent others from approaching intelligently.

Are you not dividing Islam by creating a sect?

I don’t accept the premise of the question.

Nevertheless, my answer is that the cultural narrative called Islam is full of sects. That the Qur’an is from God, complete, and preserved is about the sum of what those sects say they agree upon; and it is precisely this which I myself focus on.

Do you not know that the majority of Muslims will never be wrong?

That assertion is not found in the Qur’an; according to the Qur’an, the majority is always wrong.
