(CNSNews.com) - Religious textbooks at the Islamic Saudi Academy (ISA) in Fairfax, Va., which have sparked controversy for content that allegedly promotes violence and hatred toward non-Muslims, will be rewritten and reissued by the time students return to school in the fall, said school officials.
"We hope the books will be clean from any kind of misunderstanding that people think about," the head of Islamic teachings at the academy, who asked not to be named, told Cybercast News Service on Tuesday.
The ISA official, however, denied that the books used until now contain lessons that teach children to hate non-Muslims or incite violence against people outside the faith.
"There is nothing in these books -- but people that don't have this background, they may understand it in a wrong way, in a negative way," the official said.
Poor little misunderstood muslims...there is nothing wrong with those books; it is us the malevolent dirty infidels - sons of apes and pigs who are misinterpreting the peacegul teaching of the Qu'ran inspired school books you are using.
Take for example this Qu'ran verse: "You (i.e. Muslims) will fight with the Jews till some of them will hide behind stones. The stones will (betray them) saying, 'O 'Abdullah (i.e. slave of Allah)! There is a Jew hiding behind me; so kill him.'"
Sounds like a call for genocide, right?
Wrong! This is just another misinterpretation of the Qu'ran. What the Holy Book really teaches is whenever a muslim sees a Jew on the street, he must run towards him and invite the poor misguided infidel to the nearest restaurant and buy him a shish kabob with hummus and a cold keffir.
See? It is so easy to misinterpret the peaceful teachings of Islam when you "don't have the right background"
