Theres a difference between Terrorist and Muslims?

Question

Many people today look at all muslims into terriost but they are wrong about it Islam and MOST muslims are against the behavior that Al-Qaida and the Taliban do! What you see the Taliban and the Al-Qaida doing is WRONG in ISLAM and they are hated by many muslims! So lets get something straight out there not unless you know what the princepals of islam are and the rules and the koran you really shouldn't be talking! Especially if you base it off what you see on the news everyday. Many Americans haven't realized that when the Twin Towers where attacked that Muslims stood up and did rallys against what they did! Why because the media didn't show that side of what was going on! Or they showed little clips and during the time where people weren't watching it the most. Think about it?

Answer 1

Sometimes pictures speak louder than words.

Sorry, there are some disturbing scenes in here but it’s something that everyone needs to see in order to get a clearer picture of what’s going on.

Answer 2

Yes you are of course correct, generalisation and propaganda sums it all up, mainly propaganda, a vast number of your answers have never ben anywhere near a Muslim or the Koran, they wouldnt know the Koran from a coconut!
One even said Britian is a Christian country and Muslims should conform? perhaps if they dont we could send a few crusaders to their doors and burn them out in a Christian manner!
I have no axe to grind with Islamic people, I have worked in their countries , I have friends among them, I am atheist,I have found them to be about the same as any other bunch of nationalities, some are religious nuts, as are some Christians, some dont give a toss or really understand their religion, Christians are also the same as this group
What can we do about it? Not a lot now but I can see a time when all religion will go out of the window, and as this is the cause of many past and present conflicts the sooner the better.
Nice try at peace making but the vast majority wont "Think about it" they have been brainwashed and just cant see it!
But keep up the good work..

Answer 3

Yes, there certainly is a difference. But how do you recognise the terrorists? They don't wear uniforms and practically any 18 year old can blow himself up in a cafe or market place. This is what has happened before and it is very sad. Those people obviously are convinced that their death is for a good cause and they claim they do it for God. Why? I believe other Muslims can have an influence on them - show them that taking lives, even if they are the lives of "infidels", is wrong.
PS. By the way, I read some of the comments here citing the Koran and - frankly - the cited lines can be interpreted as if they only refer to Muslims, not to people of other religions.

Answer 4

You say unless we have read the Koran, then we shouldn't talk. But when these terrorists are attacking us they are all quoting the Koran and claiming they are Islamic and fighting a Jihad. I think that's good enough reason to at least talk about the problem of extremist Islamics.

Many Islamic people in Britain refuse to adopt our language and customs saying we should be more flexible for them. This will never work as Britain is a christian country and having immigrants asking us to change out ways for them will only serve to anger the locals.

I think Muslims need to start working harder to promote understanding of their religion, spend more time isolating the extreme elements in their faith (they are after all in the best position to help) and working with local indigenous people to combat terrorists. Unfortunately all the Islamic people I have ever met have not been interested in doing this (although I'm not generalising and saying those types don't exist)

Answer 5

Amazing diatribe that Kafi produced in 2 minutes from the moment this question was posted. It makes you wonder what his agenda is and who he is working for.

So difference issue. In a broad scale Gingus Kahn and Charlie Manson, might be labeled terrorist in today's vernacular. Both non Muslims.

But what about Islam and it's commitment to control every living soul on earth. There are some interesting conundrums associated with Islamic revival. Like John Knox of old, in Scotland the practice of believe as I do or die is neither a new message or subject to ending soon. Combine that with the practice of Muslims being instructed by their Oman that lying to a infidel is a good thing. Classic example The Islamic person says to a non Muslim "We would never lie" He is blessed by Allah and has disarmed a infidel.

This is not going to change in our lifetimes. Millions will die and no one will except blame. Like burning witches it is just a crazy religon thing.

Go big Red GO

Answer 6

Terrorist Muslims hide behind a cloak of religion whilst they seek to gain ultimate world power. The Koran states that Allah cannot return until the world is cleansed of all infidels (anyone who does not believe in Allah).You start to get a understanding of why they hate the rest of the non-Muslim world when you read the tenants in the Koran and the Hadiths.I read more militant rhetoric in the Koran and Hadiths than I ever heard or read in my eight years active duty in the Army. These Muslim holy books call for them to do all that you have seen the terrorists doing in the last 50 years. It should not be a surprise to anyone that they are doing what they’re bible and Muslim clerics tell them to.Isreal is just a speed bump and the rest of the world is the mission. If you don’t believe that the average Muslim agrees with the terrorist’s actions then explain to me why they were dancing in the streets after 9/11.Good day to all of you, and may our future generations never have to endure the scourge of religious tyranny in the future.

Answer 7

There is a big difference and most peace loving people can see that. The IRA did not represent the Irish people as a whole, and neither do the radical Muslims groups, but sadly it seems to be a case of the "silent majority", we need more interaction between the tolerant sections of our society's to stop and standard up to radical views, be it Al-Qaida or the BNP.

Answer 8

If you watched Panorama on sunday evening Hamas are encouring kids to be fighters and martyrs, whats that if its not terrorism, the woman teacher was an active supporter of hamas, with hamas flags at the entrance to the school and the principle of an Orphanage allowed a shield to be pinned to the wall depicting muslim ideals of conquering the world showing the world covered in blood, whats that about, terrorism, the solution is to move all Arab Muslims to the moon then send it into space, the world will then be a peaceful place again without them.

Answer 9

You get something straight missy. I don't want to know about the Koran or Islam. I know all muslims are not terrorsists but I know all terrorists are muslims, at least 99%.
Also, these terrorists hide among civilians and disguise themselves as civilians. Sometimes it's impossible to tell one from the other.
The people that bombed NYC, London, and Madrid weren't wearing uniforms. They act as everyday civilians.
That's where all the distrust comes from.

Answer 10

Islam is a message for the salvation of humanity.

It is to save not to destroy people. Islam is not terrorism. It is not for self revenge. It is not hate, it is love. Law of Islam is based on The Holy Quran and Sunnah. It is not what others do. There is a strict code of Law even in wars. Those Muslims who commit crimes against the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.) have to face Allah T'ala one day and answer to the Almighty. We all do! There is a Day of Judgment for all mankind! Let us be true followers of Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.)

Islam, a religion of mercy, does not permit terrorism. In the Quran, God has said:

God does not forbid you from showing kindness and dealing justly with those who have not fought you about religion and have not driven you out of your homes. God loves just dealers. (Quran, 60:8)

The Prophet Muhammad used to prohibit soldiers from killing women and children,1 and he would advise them: {...Do not betray, do not be excessive, do not kill a newborn child.}2 And he also said: {Whoever has killed a person having a treaty with the Muslims shall not smell the fragrance of Paradise, though its fragrance is found for a span of forty years.}3

Also, the Prophet Muhammad has forbidden punishment with fire.4

He once listed murder as the second of the major sins,5 and he even warned that on the Day of Judgment, {The first cases to be adjudicated between people on the Day of Judgment will be those of bloodshed.6}7

Muslims are even encouraged to be kind to animals and are forbidden to hurt them. Once the Prophet Muhammad said: {A woman was punished because she imprisoned a cat until it died. On account of this, she was doomed to Hell. While she imprisoned it, she did not give the cat food or drink, nor did she free it to eat the insects of the earth.}8

He also said that a man gave a very thirsty dog a drink, so God forgave his sins for this action. The Prophet was asked, “Messenger of God, are we rewarded for kindness towards animals?” He said: {There is a reward for kindness to every living animal or human.}9

Additionally, while taking the life of an animal for food, Muslims are commanded to do so in a manner that causes the least amount of fright and suffering possible. The Prophet Muhammad said: {When you slaughter an animal, do so in the best way. One should sharpen his knife to reduce the suffering of the animal.}10

In light of these and other Islamic texts, the act of inciting terror in the hearts of defenseless civilians, the wholesale destruction of buildings and properties, the bombing and maiming of innocent men, women, and children are all forbidden and detestable acts according to Islam and the Muslims. Muslims follow a religion of peace, mercy, and forgiveness, and the vast majority have nothing to do with the violent events some have associated with Muslims. If an individual Muslim were to commit an act of terrorism, this person would be guilty of violating the laws of Islam.

Answer 11

Indeed all Muslims are not terrorists but far too many of them are and those who are terrorists are using religion to hide behind and to convince others that their heinous acts are righteous. I only saw Muslims, including those living in the United States, dancing in the streets when they saw or heard about the twin towers. Even Arab news outlets didn't show even one Muslim protesting it.
