Happy Columbus Day: Muslims discovered America
North America may be reviled as 'the Land of the Infidels', but according to Muslim Imam, al-Hajj Talib 'Abdur-Rashid, it is the Muslims and not the seafaring Columbus who discovered it. This tops the whopper category edging out Islam claims that Moses was not a Jew but the first Muslim. "(A) ncient Arabic (Muslim) language maps, Native American tribes with African names and words clearly embedded in their languages, statues, diaries, artifacts, etc. destroy European imperialistic notions of history rooted in White Supremacy...those very same Muslim African explorers...who were already present in the Caribbean and North America, before the bearers of the Cross arrived," elaborates this enlightened Imam."
