Hoaxes
From WikiIslam
Some devout Muslims sometimes use doctored or even entirely faked pictures to mislead people into believing in Islam.
There is a variety of well-known and less well-known Islamic Hoaxes, some of which are listed below.
- 10 Meter Tall Human Skeleton
- Trees Saying Shahadah
- Human Bronchus Makes Shahadah
- Shariff Idd, 5 year old African boy wonder?
- Fake conversions
- Allah's Melons
- Cactuses Spell Out Allah
Imam Ghazali
Imam Ghazali's authority in Islam is indisputable. He says:
When it is possible to achieve such an aim by lying but not by telling the truth, it is permissible to lie if attaining the goal is permissible"[1]
Of course what goal better than creating miracles for Allah!
