Tulisan di bawah ini sebetulnya nunjukin kayak apa sejarah islam tsb, sejarah 
Islam itu sebetulnya ga lebih dr kibulan sesuai dgn apa yg mau didengar orang 
Islam. Begitu ada yg ngomong sejarah Islam yg berbeda, ybs akan dibantai unt 
menutup mulutnya.


Ga heran kalo si pinpin ngoceh sejarah Islam, tp ga bisa ngasih bukti "sejarah" 
sama sekali selain kaing2 kayak anjing kejepit buntut.

BBC Backs Down; Threats of Physical Violence

Islam is "a legitimate subject of historical inquiry. I think there's a degree 
to which Muslims, far more than Christians, have felt that the foundation myths 
of their religion 
are somehow historical fact, and it seems to me that they're clearly 
not." Tom Holland, author,Islam: The Untold Story, cancelled by BBC, after 
threats.

The British Broadcasting Corporation has cancelled the screening of a 
controversial documentary about the history of Islam after the 
presenter was threatened with physical violence.

The private screening was to take place, followed by a debate, at the BBC's 
headquarters in London on September 13 before an audience of 
historians and opinion shapers.

"Islam: The Untold Story" is a documentary by historian Tom Holland, a 
well-known British author, who examines the origins of Islam and 
argues that there is little written historical evidence to verify claims about 
the Muslim prophet Mohammed and the origins of Islam.

In the documentary, the Cambridge-educated historian offers a 
critical examination of the traditional Islamic narrative that the 
Muslim holy book, The Koran, was transmitted directly and "fully formed" to 
Mohammed in the seventh century, through the angel Gabriel.

Holland says that contrary to Muslim claims, it is far more probable that 
theKoran and Islamic theology developed gradually over many centuries in 
conjunction with the expansion of Arab empires. He also says there are 
many "black holes" in the historical record, and suggests that Islam is 
essentially a "made-up" religion. "I had expected to find 
contemporaneous Muslim evidence," Holland says, "but there's nothing 
there."

Holland also questions in the film the centrality of Mecca in the 
origins of Islam: "Aside from a single ambiguous mention in the Koran 
itself, there is no mention of [the Muslim holy city of] Mecca, not one, in any 
datable text for over a hundred years after Muhammad's death."

The documentary, which was previously aired on the BBC's Channel 4 on August 
28, generated more than 1,000 complaints by Muslims, who accuse 
Holland of distorting the history of Islam.

The London-based Islamic Education and Research Academy published two papers 
(here and here) denouncing the program. The Academy accuses Holland of 
"recklessness," 
of making "baseless assumptions" and of engaging in "selective 
scholarship."

The British telecommunications regulator, Ofcom, after it received more than 
100 complaints that the documentary is 
biased and offensive to Muslims, says it may launch an investigation.

Holland insists that Islam is "a legitimate subject of historical 
inquiry." The documentary follows on the heels of a growing number of 
scholarly and popular books (here, here, here, here, here, here and here) that 
challenge some of the most fundamental assumptions about the origin of Islam.

In an interview about the origins of Islam with the London-based The Spectator, 
Holland states: "I think there's a degree to which Muslims, far more 
than Christians, have felt that the foundation myths of their religion 
are somehow historical fact, and it seems to me that they're clearly 
not. There must be a bedrock of fact, but it is more 'sacred history' 
than it is history...." Holland also says: "There's a sense in which I 
think as Islam evolves and as, let's say, Muslims start to realize that 
they are in competition with Jews and Christians, they need to have 
their Prophet have a revelation from an angel...."

Holland's documentary has earned him an online flood of abusive messages. 
According to the British newspaper The Telegraph, one message reads: "You might 
be a target in the streets. You may recruit some bodyguards, for your own 
safety."

A spokesperson for Channel 4 said: "Having taken security advice, we 
have reluctantly canceled a planned screening of the program Islam: The Untold 
Story."

The dust-up follows a similar controversy over a new BBC comedy series called 
Citizen Khan, which confronts issues faced by a modern Muslim family.

The six-part series, which aired for the first time on BBC1 in 
August, was created by British Muslim Adil Ray, who also plays the lead 
role.

After its first episode, the BBC received more than 600 complaints 
from Muslims who claim the program is guilty of "stereotypes about 
Asians" and is "disrespectful to the Koran." Some of the angry reactions have 
been compiled here.

Muslims were particularly angered by a scene where an actress who 
plays Khan's glamorous daughter rushes to put on a hijab and pretends to be 
reading the Koran when her father comes home.

According to the Union of Muslim Organizations of UK and Ireland, a 
London-based Muslim umbrella organization, "a large proportion of 
Muslims will be un-amused by the negative stereotypes because it leads 
to misrepresentation." British Muslims are not, apparently, allowed to 
laugh at themselves.
