Deedat's Downfall and Death?
This article is a response to the polytheist trinitarian pagans who uttered blasphemous absurd lies against GOD Almighty at: http://www.answering-islam.org/Responses/Deedat/downfall.htm.
As almost always the case with their articles, this article is not really worth responding to, and it is only a blasphemous and hypocritical one on their part as I will demonstrate shortly. But since it is my duty to expose their lies and hypocrisy, then I will therefore, take the privilege in refuting them.
I won't go into the details of their absurd and lengthy article, because it is mostly filled with garbage, but I would like to respond to the following part which pretty much sums up the whole article.
They wrote:
Many readers have been asking whether Ahmed Deedat, the Muslim debater, is still alive. As of this writing (July 2005) he is alive, but he cannot speak and he is completely paralyzed. In fact, Deedat has been in this condition since he suffered a rare kind of stroke nine years ago. Few people outside his home city of Durban are aware of this, and even fewer, know the sequence of events leading to this tragedy.
Four weeks before Deedat was stricken he attacked the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ in front of a large audience in Australia. These provocative lectures “raised the ire of the Australian government”, causing them to “threaten to deport him unless he toned down the content of his Good Friday lecture in Sydney.” (Daily News, Durban, 6 May 1996) Incidentally, Deedat’s inflammatory reputation caused Singapore to ban him from entering their country.
If a secular entity like the Australian government was so offended, what was the Christian church feeling? And more importantly what were they doing about it? Following is the record of how Christians responded in Durban where Deedat founded and directed the Islamic Propagation Centre International.
The publication of Deedat’s book “Combat Kit” (1992) marked the beginning of the end. This vicious and ridiculing attack on the Bible set in motion events which proved to be Deedat’s undoing. During the next year a small group of Christians prayed about these provocations. Finally I wrote Mr. Deedat a personal letter, in which I refuted two of his most vile and vicious attacks. He did not acknowledge receiving the hand-delivered letter — much less answer it.
[This personal letter is now displayed here. An expanded rebuttal which correlates with this letter has been available on this page already since 1996. This article reports about another visit to Deedat that is related to the same issue.]
In the following months a group of nearly two dozen pastors from many different churches and denominations deliberated and prayed about these mocking attacks on the Holy Bible. They decided to issue a stern public rebuke through an open letter in the Daily News of Durban. They warned him of God’s judgement because Deedat refused to retract his defamatory and unscholarly attacks against the Bible.
[See this page for a reproduction of the open letter.]
This confrontation — and the stroke that Deedat suffered 21 months later — is reminiscent of another confrontation between the apostle Paul and Elymas, the sorcerer. We read that Paul sharply rebuked him, “O full of all deceit and all fraud, you son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease perverting the straight ways of the Lord? And now indeed, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you shall be blind, not seeing the sun for a time.” (Acts 13:10,11) It should not surprise us that God vindicated his holiness by striking Elymas with temporary blindness. So also with Deedat: he suffered a severe stroke, rendering him speechless and paralysed.
God declares in his word, "Whoever stubbornly refuses to accept criticism will suddenly be broken beyond repair." (Proverbs 29:1)
My response:
First of all, it is interesting that when the christians are squeezed and cornered, the first thing they would do is compromise their so-called "beliefs" of liberty and free society. Notice their quote above:
"These provocative lectures “raised the ire of the Australian government”, causing them to “threaten to deport him unless he toned down the content of his Good Friday lecture in Sydney.” (Daily News, Durban, 6 May 1996) Incidentally, Deedat’s inflammatory reputation caused Singapore to ban him from entering their country."
Interestingly, the christians are the only nations on this earth that would literally wipe out nations out of the face of this earth if their interests are challenged or threatened. History clearly tells us that the blood-thirsty white christians are the biggest terrorists in the world. When one looks at world wars 1 & 2, the Medieval christian era, slavery and the mass slaughter of the Native Americans, he would clearly see this.
So having said all of that, let me now refute their absurd blasphemy and hypocrisy above. The reason why I call it blasphemy is:
1- They have given themselves the right to speak on behalf of GOD Almighty.
2- They assumed that this is what GOD Almighty Did.
Stroke is not something rare as the liars stated above. It happens to many people;
good and evil ones. When one is struck by a stroke it doesn't necessarily mean that
GOD Almighty poured His Wrath onto that person! Sheikh Ahmed Deedat (may Allah
Almighty rest his soul and grant him Paradise) died when he was 84 years old. That's
pretty old! So for him to die from a stroke is not something strange.
Why can't it be a Blessing from GOD Almighty?
The way I see it, GOD Almighty might have delayed Sheikh Ahmed Deedat's (may Allah Almighty rest his soul and grant him Paradise) stroke until he finished all of his writings and lectures and caused for a whole new generation of scholars and debaters to be born after him! Deedat is now the world's icon for all Muslims who debate Jews and Christians. He was the first to do it, and he excelled in doing it, to a point where countries began to ban him from entering their soil.
He was very professional and very polite in his speeches! So it wasn't like those countries saw a street thug in him. On the contrary, they were threatened by the Truth that he revealed! Deedat was the first Muslim to shut the missionaries' mouths and to expose the lies, falsehood, and man's alteration in their bible. See the irrefutable evidence in the link.
What about Terry Schiavo:
Everyone who knew this young lady who suffered from brain damage and lived for several years completely paralyzed to a point where she literally couldn't even talk or even lift a single finger, testifies that she was a "sweet angel", and did no one no harm! My question now to the polytheist trinitarian pagans is:
Did GOD Almighty pour His Wrath on Ms. Schiavo?
What about 9/11?
Here is where the hypocrisy of those polytheist trinitarian pagans comes. Can you tell your American audience whether 9/11 was a curse and a wrath from GOD Almighty? Can you apply your blasphemy and hypocrisy to 9/11 and to the Americans as well? I'd love to see your answer to this one.
Conclusion:
The polytheist trinitarian pagans of the "Answering Islam" team have, once again, proven their desperation to attack Islam and the active Muslims who expose their corrupted and man-altered bible by any and all cost. Their article above is nothing but an absurdity and a clear blasphemy and hypocrisy against GOD Almighty and all of the good people who happen to suffer from natural break downs in their bodies such as strokes, heart attacks, cancers, etc...
So for a group of people to come and openly declare that the reason why some person got struck with cancer, for instance, is because GOD Almighty hated him and poured His Wrath upon him, would be both blasphemous and absurd, because these people are in no position to speak on behalf of GOD Almighty, and are in no position to declare that they know what GOD Almighty Decides. This is what exactly those polytheist trinitarian pagans did in their article.

Contradictions and History of Corruption in the Bible.
"Allah" was GOD Almighty's original Name in the Bible according to the Hebrew and Aramaic sources.
Scientific Miracles in Islam and the Noble Quran.
Most of the Bible's books and gospels were written by mysterious people!
Jesus mentioned Muhammad by the name in the Bible.
Did Isaiah 53 really prophesies about the crucifixion of Jesus? It supports Islam's claims about Jesus peace be upon him never died on the cross. I also addressed John 19:36-37 from the Bible and proved that Jesus never got crucified, since GOD Almighty promised that he will protect Jesus' body and not let even a single bone be broken. My question to all Christians is: How in the world is it possible for the feet to get nailed on the cross without any penetration to the bones by the nails, hence breaking part of the feet's bones?! I also added refutations to Exodus 12:46, Numbers 9:12, Zechariah 12:10 and Psalm 34:20, which supposedly prove the Christians' belief about Jesus crucifixion. I proved that this dogma has no truth what so ever and exposed the wrong Trinitarian English translation of Zechariah 12:10.
