The 4 Freedoms Library

It takes a nation to protect the nation

Shari'ah: Reliance of the Traveller

An Islamic site posted two pdf versions. One is complete, all 1251 pages including the academic certifications. It is a low resolution scan, not easy on the eyes but legible. With Acrobat 8 you can copy and paste the text, but editing may be necessary, the ocr has problems with rn, c & e.

The second version is a high res. scan but it starts with Book f, skipping a-e. If memory serves, the link is basically the same, with the addition of a numeral 2 ahead of the extension. I included links at Crusader's Armory. inthe Sharia menu.

It is possible to link to a specific page in the file by appending a simple code to the url. For example, this one gets the reader into Book o9.0, which defines jihad.

To aim at a different page, change the number to the right of the equal sign at the end. Adding #page=nnn to the url of any pdf should work.

This is an excellent resource. I have a copy on my computer and have dipped into it a few times. It is very useful in arguing a point that is is not clearly outlined in the Quran or Hadith. Islam is a revealed religion and all anyone has to do to understand it is read all about it! Thanks

Muslim Terrorism Count

Thousands of Deadly Islamic Terror Attacks Since 9/11

Mission Overview

Most Western societies are based on Secular Democracy, which itself is based on the concept that the open marketplace of ideas leads to the optimum government. Whilst that model has been very successful, it has defects. The 4 Freedoms address 4 of the principal vulnerabilities, and gives corrections to them. 

At the moment, one of the main actors exploiting these defects, is Islam, so this site pays particular attention to that threat.

Islam, operating at the micro and macro levels, is unstoppable by individuals, hence: "It takes a nation to protect the nation". There is not enough time to fight all its attacks, nor to read them nor even to record them. So the members of 4F try to curate a representative subset of these events.

We need to capture this information before it is removed.  The site already contains sufficient information to cover most issues, but our members add further updates when possible.

We hope that free nations will wake up to stop the threat, and force the separation of (Islamic) Church and State. This will also allow moderate Muslims to escape from their totalitarian political system.

The 4 Freedoms

These 4 freedoms are designed to close 4 vulnerabilities in Secular Democracy, by making them SP or Self-Protecting (see Hobbes's first law of nature). But Democracy also requires - in addition to the standard divisions of Executive, Legislature & Judiciary - a fourth body, Protector of the Open Society (POS), to monitor all its vulnerabilities (see also Popper). 
1. SP Freedom of Speech
Any speech is allowed - except that advocating the end of these freedoms
2. SP Freedom of Election
Any party is allowed - except one advocating the end of these freedoms
3. SP Freedom from Voter Importation
Immigration is allowed - except where that changes the political demography (this is electoral fraud)
4. SP Freedom from Debt
The Central Bank is allowed to create debt - except where that debt burden can pass across a generation (25 years).

An additional Freedom from Religion is deducible if the law is applied equally to everyone:

  • Religious and cultural activities are exempt from legal oversight except where they intrude into the public sphere (Res Publica)"
