Hello everyone,

Please forgive my ignorance, but I would like to know how atheism is defined in Arabic?

Does Arabic make a distintion between atheist and people who have beliefs in God that are not Muslim?

This question comes up because in Osama Bin Laden's last video statement he says that the attacks on September 11 was an attack on atheism. See this site for the transcript:

Does anyone know where I can find other english translations of Bin Laden statements other than on the BBC?

Yours Trent

P. S What is Up with the funky fonts on this site?
