George Bernard Shaw's Testimony

Since 2001-09-28

           "I have always held the religion of Muhammad in high estimation because of its wonderful vitality. It is the only religion which appears to me to possess that assimilating capacity to the changing phase of existence which can make itself appeal to every age. I have studied him - the wonderful man and in my opinion for from being an anti-Christ, he must be called the Saviour of Humanity.

If a man like Muhamed were to assume the dictatorship of the modern world, he would succeed in solving its problems that would bring it the much needed peace and happiness." "If any religion had the chance of ruling over England, nay Europe within the next hundred years, it could be Islam."

Refrence: 'The Genuine Islam'
