All In One Place

“A mosque in Islam is the center for worship, justice, war strategy and government. This is because Islam is both a religion and government. Islam is a pen and a sword . . . At his mosque in Medina . . . [Muhammad] planned his war strategy, held court and received visiting tribal leaders. It was like the Pentagon, the White House and the Supreme Court all in one place. The Islamic world was ruled from the mosque” (Mark Gabriel, Islam and Terrorism, p. 98).
