“Prior to the advent of Islam in this world, in the middle of the Seventh Century let us say, often Dissent Meant Death – often a very painful one – whether that dissent was against the King or the Church.
Islam came to give people – all people – the Right to Say “No!” without being punished for saying it. And doing so even to God Almighty himself.” (Dr. Pasha)
