Taqiyya: Islamic Religious Deception
There are many doctrines of Islam which are little known in the West, including many which are profoundly important in order to better understand the nature of the religion, and the nature of our enemies in the current conflict. We need to shake off our ignorance and work to comprehend these important doctrines if we are to be the victors in this fight. For instance, consider the concept of taqqiya , or religious deception. Muslims are generally encouraged to tell the truth – but this apparently only extends among other believers, for the idea of lying to non-Muslims is a key part of traditional Islam. This deception is called taqiyya , and it stipulates that under certain circumstances, lying to unbelievers is permissible.
