- 1. Since muhammad clearly enjoins jihad against infidels in holy places , latter-day salafism-notwithstanding every effort of western , or pro-western , commentators to euphemize the prophet 's words-is on sound scriptural grounds , embarrassing though this undoubtedly is to the moderate majority of muslims .
- 由于默罕默德清楚嘱咐要在圣地发起针对异端的圣战，尽管西方或亲西方的评论这都努力委婉地解释先知的预言，近代的萨拉菲主义（salafism）依然对经文言听计从，这无疑令大多数温和的穆斯林感到尴尬。
