If it is indeed the case, then that says a lot… On October 10, a missile strike on Riyadh’s international airport killed 13 people and injured 308 others. The incident had been described as the deadliest attack in Saudi Arabia in more than a decade. The escalation of hostilities doesn’t bode well for Mohammed bin […] source https://muslimskeptic.com/2026/10/28/mbs-incompetent-saudi-arabia/

For a certain generation of Muslims, particularly Millennials and those on the younger end of Generation X, Chechnya occupies a distinctive place in the collective political imagination. This symbolic significance cannot be reduced to the fact that Chechens were perceived as “European” or “white Muslims.” After all, Bosnian Muslims (or Bosniaks) had already experienced ethnic […] source https://muslimskeptic.com/2026/10/26/kadyrovism-new-paradigm-secular/

One of the most common accusations raised in modern Christian-Muslim polemics is the assertion that the Qur’an supposedly “copied” its narratives about Jesus from apocryphal Christian literature. The Qur’an records Jesus (peace upon him) speaking from the cradle (Qur’an 19:29–33) and creating birds from clay by God’s permission (Qur’an 3:49; 5:110). Similar stories appear in […] source https://muslimskeptic.com/2026/10/24/christian-myth-debunked-apocrypha/

If you’ve been following the latest staged news spectacles flying out of Tel Aviv, you surely would’ve come across the newest action thriller, dubbed the “Flydubai incident.” The script is so poorly written that even the most trash Hollywood B-movie could’ve done a better and more believable job. For those of us who have years […] source https://muslimskeptic.com/2026/10/22/hollywood-bollywood-flydubai/

Some of you may have seen brother Daniel Haqiqatjou’s latest livestream, in which he takes the “12 Axes Political Compass” quiz. He discovers, perhaps to his own surprise, that his closest ideological match is none other than Julius Evola, with a surprising 92% ideological proximity. As brother Haqiqatjou himself points out, the compass is rather […] source https://muslimskeptic.com/2026/10/19/haqiqatjou-evola-traditionalism/

As Muslims, it is necessary for us to believe that the Qur’an is the eternal, uncreated Speech (kalam) of Allah, revealed to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ via the angel Jibril/Jibra’il (Gabriel). What we will be looking at here is the Qur’an’s treatment of sleep. Far from presenting sleep merely as a biological necessity, the Qur’an […] source https://muslimskeptic.com/2026/10/17/quranic-metaphysics-sleep/

I increasingly encounters Muslims on X speaking approvingly of what might be called “cultural Islam”: an attachment to Islam that survives after its metaphysical, doctrinal, and normative commitments have been weakened, suspended, or even explicitly rejected. (The infamous Javed Akhtar is one such claimant, rejecting Islam as a theology but validating the “Islamicate” as a […] source https://muslimskeptic.com/2026/10/15/cultural-islam/

You’d probably have heard by now of the incident that took place aboard flydubai flight FZ1073, which, on September 30, 2026, narrowly escaped catastrophe while travelling from Dubai to Tel Aviv. According to the investigation announced by Emirati authorities, the aircraft’s Omani co-pilot, Hamam al-Hammami, attempted to seize control of the Boeing 737 and crash […] source https://muslimskeptic.com/2026/10/12/eternal-religion-hanuman-chalisa-hinduism/

  Introduction Ibn Saud lived from 1876 to 1952. His full name was Abdulaziz ibn Abd al-Rahman Al Saud (عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ بْنِ فَيْصَلٍ آلِ سُعُود). Ibn Saud is the founder of the modern Saudi state (i.e., the third Saudi state). The Saudi state is based in the Central Arabian region of Najd.

There are few words whose meaning is apprehended more immediately than “beauty.” Before it is “analysed,” “defined,” or “theorised,” beauty is experienced. It arrests perception, suspends ordinary calculation, and draws consciousness outside itself. Beauty invites contemplation before action. It produces silence before explanation. This universal human experience explains why beauty occupies such a central place […] source https://muslimskeptic.com/2026/10/07/secular-war-beauty/

Many of us have heard of the infamous “Arab Revolt”: an event in which a number of tribes in the Arabian peninsula sided with the British against the late Ottoman Empire. This incident, inflicting a crippling blow on the Ottoman war effort, would contribute to the complete colonization of the Middle East over the following […] source https://muslimskeptic.com/2026/10/06/divided-loyalties-western-counter-jihad-agendas/

On X (formerly Twitter), one regularly comes across ethnonationalist wars of a particularly ugly kind, many of which seem to be directed against Persians. Not too long ago, I witnessed an Arab nationalist use language about Imam al-Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him) that would have been almost unthinkable within the traditional Sunni civilization.

The Age of Enlightenment is often highlighted as the epoch where Europeans and the Western world in general emerged from the ‘darkness’ of the Middle Ages and entered into the light of ‘reason’ and ‘science.’ It is an age celebrated as a time that gave the Western world freedom, liberal democracy, universal human rights, reason, […] source https://muslimskeptic.com/2026/10/04/dominant-religion-today/

There is a recurring debate regarding whether Jews constitute a “race” or are “merely” the adherents of a religion. However, Jewishness (I give preference to this term over “Judaism,” which evacuates the ethnic component) is more accurately described as an ethnoreligious tradition: religious covenant and historical peoplehood are interwoven in ways that make their complete […] source https://muslimskeptic.com/2026/10/01/1967-when-zionism-sacred/

If an individual genuinely claimed access to divine revelation, what kind of evidence should we expect? Well, certainly not merely ambiguous language or symbolic predictions that can be retrofitted to almost any historical outcome. Such statements possess little evidential value because their apparent accuracy can be attributed to interpretive flexibility rather than genuine predictive power.

The most common historical justification for 18th century colonialism was the notion of a civilizational disparity between Europeans and other peoples of the world. Today, white nationalists continue to depict the “third world” as being savage and repugnant in all manners of life, among which a major theme is on the subject of hygiene. Practices […] source https://muslimskeptic.com/2026/09/28/european-hygiene-18th-century/

As Muslims, we affirm without reservation that Jesus (peace be upon him) is the Messiah (al-Masih). The Qur’an explicitly bestows this title upon him in numerous places, referring to him as “the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary” (Qur’an 3:45; 4:157; 4:171; 5:17; 5:72; 5:75; 9:30). His messianic status is therefore not a point of dispute […] source https://muslimskeptic.com/2026/09/26/hebrew-bible-messiah-divine-man/

This September 11 (2026) marked the 25-year anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, and, as usual, the time of year has become more than just an occasion for remembrance and commemoration. It has also become an annual battleground of competing narratives. Sadly, however, not much of it is about Israel’s involvement in the attacks. Instead, we […] source https://muslimskeptic.com/2026/09/24/pyrrhic-crusade-war-terror-white-nationalist/

The war in Yemen has become emblematic of 21st century conflicts in the middle east, pitting Muslims against one another on purportedly sectarian grounds. It has led to much suffering, loss of life, infrastructural damage, and poverty, resulting in the once prosperous lands of Yemen being reduced to rubble. The wounds of the violence there […] source https://muslimskeptic.com/2026/09/23/yemen-recent-history/

This is the second installment in a series of articles on IMPACT-SE, the Jewish Israeli organization that is trying to brainwash the Muslim youth by deforming Islam in the education system and textbook curricula in Muslim countries.
