Islam’s Implausible Theology: Allah the Incompetent Strategist
One of the most common — and frankly laughable — claims made by Muslim apologists is that Allah deliberately allowed false religions like Christianity to dominate the world for centuries as part of a grand plan to “prepare humanity” for the arrival of Islam.
When pressed about the historical and theological disaster this creates, they retreat into a series of excuses so absurd that they end up exposing the catastrophic incoherence at the heart of Islamic theology.
Let’s break this down.
1. The Incompetence of Allah’s "Grand Plan"
According to Islam:
Allah sent 124,000 prophets across human history (based on hadith like Musnad Ahmad 21257).
Their message was (supposedly) always "Islam" — submission to one God — even when they lived thousands of miles and centuries apart.
Despite this massive divine effort, humanity universally kept falling into polytheism, idolatry, and heresy.
Allah allowed false religions (especially Christianity) to spread across the globe unchecked for over 600 years before finally sending Muhammad.
In other words:
Allah had a 99.999% failure rate with his prophets — and let humanity wallow in falsehood for millennia.
What divine strategist allows almost every messenger to fail?
What omnipotent god permits corruption after corruption, generation after generation, until virtually nothing of the original message remains?
This isn’t divine wisdom.
It’s divine negligence.
Imagine a doctor prescribing the wrong medicine for thousands of years just to “prepare” patients for the right one later.
You wouldn’t call him wise — you’d call him criminally insane.
2. The Absurd Excuse for Christianity’s Existence
Muslim apologists often say something like this:
“Allah allowed Christianity to become dominant so that people would at least believe in one God before Muhammad brought the final message.”
This is mind-numbingly stupid.
Christianity isn’t “pure monotheism” — it teaches doctrines like the Trinity and the divinity of Jesus, concepts Islam claims are unforgivable heresies.
Christianity confuses the nature of God dramatically, if you believe the Islamic narrative.
Billions have lived and died believing in a false image of God because of Christianity — and according to Islam, that’s a ticket to eternal damnation.
If Allah is truly merciful, why allow falsehood to reign supreme for centuries?
If Allah truly wants humanity to know him correctly, why wait 600+ years to send Muhammad?
Why punish people for sincerely following the only information available to them?
The Islamic excuse here doesn’t save their theology — it utterly damns it.
It paints Allah as either an incompetent fool or a malevolent tyrant.
3. The Cowardly Evasion About Jesus Not Writing Anything Down
When confronted with the obvious problem — that Jesus and his disciples never wrote down a Gospel themselves — Muslim apologists make another embarrassing move:
“It’s actually good they didn’t write anything down. Otherwise, it would have been harder for people to leave Christianity once it became corrupted.”
This is astounding.
Instead of preserving the true message through writing, Allah allowed it to vanish entirely.
Instead of ensuring clarity and protection, Allah chose obscurity and chaos.
Instead of preventing billions from being misled, Allah allowed fake Gospels, church councils, and theological confusion to run wild for centuries.
A true God would preserve his message.
A true God would not make it easier for deception to thrive.
Islam demands you believe Allah sabotaged his own revelations — deliberately — just so Muhammad’s claim centuries later could sound more appealing.
That’s not divine strategy.
That’s desperation on a cosmic scale.
4. The Cop-Out of "Ahl al-Fitrah"
To cover for the glaring injustice of billions being born into the "wrong" faiths, Muslims sometimes invoke "ahl al-fitrah" — the idea that people who never heard the true message of Islam will be judged based on their deeds.
But this only raises more devastating questions:
If Allah judges people based on their deeds without ever hearing Islam, why send Muhammad at all?
If ignorance excuses you, then spreading Islam actually endangers people, since now they can consciously reject it and face damnation.
And if monotheism was so important that Allah sent 124,000 prophets, why was he incapable of ensuring its survival even once before Muhammad?
The concept of "ahl al-fitrah" is not a solution.
It’s a flimsy bandage slapped over a gaping wound in Islamic theology.
5. The Brutal Truth: Islam’s Story is a Joke
Let’s spell it out clearly:
Allah sent 124,000 prophets.
Almost none of their messages survived.
Humanity descended into falsehood repeatedly.
Christianity — a supposedly catastrophic theological error — ruled the world for 600 years with Allah’s full permission.
Muhammad appeared only at the right time for Arab tribal politics.
Billions before him were left in confusion and are now judged accordingly.
This isn’t divine wisdom.
This is cosmic failure dressed up in religious language.
Islam’s “grand narrative” is nothing but a desperate attempt to retrofit the real world — full of messy, diverse, complex religious traditions — into a tidy, cartoonishly simple Islamic storyline.
And once you actually think about it for more than five minutes,
the whole thing falls apart.
Conclusion
The more you examine Islamic theology, the clearer it becomes:
Allah — if he exists by Islam’s description — is either incompetent, negligent, or malevolent.
No all-wise, all-merciful, all-powerful deity would operate this way.
Islam’s attempt to explain away its historical and theological disasters doesn’t make it look true.
It makes it look laughably and catastrophically false.
And no amount of circular reasoning, no appeals to "ahl al-fitrah," no desperate excuses about Christianity being “allowed” can rescue it.
The god Islam describes doesn’t deserve worship.
He deserves to be dismissed.
