Myths pushed by Islamic Apologists
Islam Means "Peace"
Muslim Apologists sometimes claim that the root word of Islam is "Al-Salaam", which is "peace" in Arabic.
Rebuttal
Arabic words have only one root. The root word in Arabic for Islam is "Al-Silm", which translates to "submission" or "surrender". There is no disagreement among Islamic scholars regarding this.
In Islam, "Peace" can only exist once all Non-Muslims have been conquered and subdued. As the modern day Islamic scholar Ibrahim Sulaiman, puts it, "Jihad is not inhumane, despite its necessary violence and bloodshed, its ultimate desire is peace which is protected and enhanced by the rule of law."
Islam Respects Women as "Equals"
Islamic Apologists will claim that "The Quran places men and women on equal foundation before Allah and each other. Women have equal rights under Islamic law."
