Haram Haqiqatjou #21: Misquoting Justin Parrott, aka Abu Amina Elias
Background
This is a clear-cut example of Haqiqatjou’s purposeful lies. He cherry-picks from what Parrott had written in order to paint a picture that he wants to portray, which is full of lies.
Haram Action
As Amina Abu Elias states, “Daniel Haqiqatjou is regularly dishonest in his ‘criticism’ of other Muslims. Below he deleted the first half of my paragraph to make it say something else, then he accused me of “making up my own religion.” The irony is the entire article is about the importance of honesty. Daniel has tarnished the reputations of numerous Muslims whose only crime was disagreeing with him. Such behavior disqualifies his opinions about Islam. If he will not quote fellow Muslims accurately, why should he be trusted to quote Allah and His Messenger ﷺ accurately?”
Evidence of Haram
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “Shall I not inform you of one of the gravest of the cardinal sins?” We said: “Yes, O Messenger of Allah!” He (ﷺ) said, “To join others as partners with Allah in worship and to be undutiful to one’s parents.” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sat up from his reclining position (in order to stress the importance of what he was going to say) and added, “I warn you making a false statement and giving a false testimony. I warn you against making a false statement and giving false testimony.” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) kept on repeating this (warning) till we wished he should stop.
