Misinterpreted verse :: Reader comments at Daniel Pipes

Submitted by Dajjal (United States), Sep 18, 2015 at 19:57

3.106 is not about burning blacks, it is about blackening the faces of sinners on judgment day, before burning them.

For the matter of creating the Black race for the fire, see the Islamic creation myth in volumes 1 & 3 of Miskhkat ul-Misabih.
