Do you know shahid Ayatollah Murtada Mutahhari (download the clip)? He was one of the best students of Imam Khomeini and Allame Tabatabaei. He was an Islamologist in every aspect, philosopher, aware of political and social issues, a brave campaigner against diversions, a strong interpreter of Quran, an effective lecturer, a virtuous man, a high level jurisprudent, etc.
Less than 3 months after Islamic revolution of Iran, he was martyred in a terrorist mission by a silly group called Forghan. They couldn’t bear seeing a person who bravely defends the pure Islam.
“He was the outcome of my life.” Imam Khomeini stated after his martyrdom.
However, I have searched a lot to find his books in English. He has almost 90 valuable book titles in different subjects in Persian. After a long searching I found a website which published some of them. Surely, they can be useful for everyone who read them, even for non-Muslims. I put the link of 20 titles that I found:
1. Goal of Life
2. Light within Me
3. The Goal of Creation
4. Man and His Destiny
5. The Awaited Saviour

On June 11, I posted an article “Does Islam Encourage Terrorism?” Only 5 days later Mr. Ben commented me that he wrote an issue and disprove some wrong thing in my blog. Now I want to emphasize my previous idea and say something completely wrong in his issue:
At first let me to bring the clear meaning of ro’b (رعب) that Mr. Ben trying to attach terror to it. The first and best meaning of it in Arabic is frighten as a verb and fear as a noun. How Mr. Ben translated this such as terror though it doesn’t mean terror even as a second or third meaning. It is considered he is totally ignorant of Arabic or he tries to deceive us?! And you know one of the meanings of terror in English is overawe, horrendous, or an extreme fear that are not the first meaning. So when you want to translate a word from a language to another one you should at first attend to the first meaning.
Second, all of these verses that he has brought are about disbelievers who attacked to prophets and his followers. Allah helped Muslims to protect his religion. He put fear in kuffar’s heart, so they are afraid of Muslims. It is not related to terror at all. It is just a kindness from God to his lovers. Mr. Ben! If you are upset of God’s help, you can say to him! Why you change the fact? Why you change the meaning of words?!!
Mr. Ben! Look at the history. Who is the real terrorist? Just in the Second World War 50 millions of innocent people were killed. Who killed them? Muslims? There was no Muslim country in that war. Why you play with words? See the reality! How many wars were begun during in 20th century by non-Muslims? Who starts world war first and second? Who attacked to Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Kosovo, Bosnia, Lebanon, and Palestine? Muslims?! Of course you can not deny these disgraces that made by America, Israel and other anti-Muslims.
This kind of misinterpretation that Mr. Ben has done it, can just called deceiving. Mr. Ben! Your article is deceiving some innocent people who are searching the right way. If a person knows a little Arabic and the basic order of Islam, surely, he will refuse your speech. But you should understand that God will show his path to seekers. Maybe you can just pervert them a little. But, with the help of God the right seekers find their path, God willing…
