Lies that Muslims say

  • Killing a person is as though killing all humanity (covered in problems section)
    • Except for spreading mischief
  • Whoever hurts a Dhimmi hurts me

  • To me your way, to you yours

    • This was a Meccan verse
    • This was a plea to leave the Muslims alone
    • This was also a sign of disrespect
    • Mohammed was tolerated as someone who claims to be a divine messenger, until he insulted their history

  • Acting according to weak Hadiths is fine

  • Weak Hadiths are often used in Da'wah

  • Muruna

    • Start with: Quran 2:225, 3:28, 3:54, 8:30, 9:3, 10:21, 16:106, and 66:2
    • Sahih Bukhari 3:45:687, 4:52:270, 4:52:271, 50:369, 52:269, and 84:64
    • Ibn Ishaq/Hisham 803
    • Ibn Ishaq 834, 837, 981
    • and Tafsir Ibn Kathir, vol. 4 (Surat 7-10)

    These cover such topics as deceiving non-Muslims, faking friendship with non-Muslims, not keeping their word to non-Muslims, lying about their faith to non-Muslims, violating treaties with non-Muslims, tricking non-Muslims into letting their guard down and then slaughtering them, and the reputation early Muslims had for lying.

    Fatawa Islamiyah might also be a good resource. I haven't gone through those in a long time but try vols. 6 & 8.
