  • A statement attributed to novelist Salman Rushdie that warns other religions and cultures about Islam is going viral on social media. The quote: Alluding to the attack on Rushdie, it reads, "The large majority of peaceful Muslims don't matter because I was attacked by just one Muslim who followed Quran. All religions are not same because they have not codified death to whoever doesn't belong in their religion. On my life I want to warn the world that Islam will not rest till every society, culture, and religion is either annihilated or converted.(sic)" What attack?: On 12 August 2022, Rushdie was attacked ahead of his lecture at the Chautauqua Institution in New York. During the introduction, a man – identified as Hadi Matar of New Jersey – leaped onto the stage and stabbed Rushdie, causing loss of vision in one eye. The truth: Rushdie took to Twitter to clarify that the quote wasn't his. "Fake quote. Not said by me," he wrote on Twitter. Since the quote referred to the attack, we looked for reports/statements made by Rushdie between 12 August 2022-7 February, but didn't find anything. Conclusion: A fake anti-Islam quote is being falsely linked to Salman Rushdie. (Not convinced of a post or information you came across online and want it verified?
