why would you not convert to islam?

Answer 1

because i strongly hold on to my beliefs which are, freedom of thought, democracy and the freedom to be who i am, which islam sadly lacks
so i will never convert to this undemocratic religion known as islam

Answer 2

I would not convert to Islam as I already have Jesus. Jesus said He is THE way, not a way. When you have the best,l you don't settle for the rest.

I see some quotes here from the Quran: now watch how many muslims go nuts over that post

Answer 3

Everyone has their own faith. Converting to another religion is truly a personal choice. I have 3 children, and have never forced any particular religion on them. I feel that everyone needs to choose their own faith, and I am willing to help them learn about as many different faiths as they want to. Doing so includes taking them to places of worship that are different than my own religion, reading, researching, and asking people in other religions about their faith. We have been to 3 different Catholic churches, 2 Presbyterian, 2 Baptist, 1 Protestant, 2 Synagogues, 1 Kingdom Hall, and many non-denominational faith churches.

So, long story short, education is the key to choosing what faith you'd like to follow. And everyone's preference is different.

Answer 4

Why would I in the first place?

Answer 5

I would never convert from my faith to any other. All other religions do not follow the true teachings of Jesus Christ or of God. I see how they are involved in politics, war, ethnic cleansings, holidays, spiritisms, man made traditions, materialism, and how their false teachings and lack of teaching God's truth has led their flocks astray. I see how those of other religions show disrespect for God in their dress, speech, conduct, lack of knowledge of God's word,for abortion, for homosexuality, for women clergy, bad sexual behavior, and just in general, their not doing the will of God and not exercising faith that the Bible really is the word of God. So, not to Islam, not to any other faith.

Answer 6

Because Islam is a false and barbaric faith, and I much prefer to remain an infidel.

Answer 7

Because I already have peace with God and waiting for the trump of
God to call me home.

Answer 8

i don't believe in mythology.

islam, like christianity and judaism from whence it sprang, has useful offerings, and was very valuable AT THE TIME IT emerged.

As Marley said:

Most people think,
Great God will come from the skies,
Take away everything
And make everybody feel high.
But if you know what life is worth,
You will look for yours on earth:
And now you see the light,
You stand up for your rights. Jah!

Get up, stand up! (Jah, Jah!)
Stand up for your rights! (Oh-hoo!)
Get up, stand up! (Get up, stand up!)
Don't give up the fight! (Life is your right!)
Get up, stand up! (So we can't give up the fight!)
Stand up for your rights! (Lord, Lord!)
Get up, stand up! (Keep on struggling on!)
Don't give up the fight! (Yeah!)

We sick an' tired of-a your ism-skism game -
Dyin' 'n' goin' to heaven in-a Jesus' name, Lord.
We know when we understand:
Almighty God is a living man.
You can fool some people sometimes,
But you can't fool all the people all the time.
So now we see the light (What you gonna do?),
We gonna stand up for our rights! (Yeah, yeah, yeah!)

Answer 9

I'm perfectly satisfied with my religion (Paganism).
I love my wife, which I can't do in Islam.
I don't want to learn a whole new language to worship.
I value my independence.
It's hot enough in August without having to wear hijab!

Answer 10

The following quotes are taken from M. H. Shakir’s translation of the Qur’an (Tahrike Tarsile Qur’an, Inc., New York):


Surah II: 98 – “Allah is the enemy of the unbelievers.”
Surah II: 191-193 – “Kill them [unbelievers] wherever you find them….Fight with them until there is no persecution, and religion should be only for Allah.”
Surah II: 216 – “Fighting is enjoined on you, and it is an object of dislike to you; and it may be that you dislike a thing while it is good for you, and it may be that you love a thing while it is evil for you, and Allah knows, while you do not know.”
Surah III: 19 – “Surely the true religion with Allah is Islam…and whoever disbelieves in the communications of Allah then surely Allah is quick in reckoning.”
Surah IV: 104 – “Be not weak in pursuit of the enemy.”
Surah V: 51 – “O you who believe! Do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whosoever among you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.”
Surah VIII: 12 – “I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them.”
Surah VIII: 15-17 – “O you who believe! When you meet those who disbelieve marching for war, turn not your backs to them. Whoever shall turn his back to them on that day – unless he turn aside for the sake of fighting or withdraws to a company – then he, indeed, becomes deserving of Allah’s wrath, and his abode is hell… So you did not slay them, but it was Allah who slew them…that He might confer upon the believers a good gift from Himself; surely Allah is Hearing, Knowing.”
Surah IX: 29 – “Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth… until they pay the tax in acknowledgement of superiority and they are in a state of subjection.”
Surah IX:33 – “[Allah] it is who sent His Apostle with guidance and the religion of truth, that He might cause it to prevail over all religions, though polytheists may be averse.”
Surah IX: 73 – “O Prophet! Strive hard against the unbelievers and the hypocrites and be unyielding to them; and their abode is hell, and evil is their destination.”
Surah IX: 123 – “O you who believe! Fight those of the unbelievers who are near to you and let them find in your hardness; and know that Allah is with those who guard (against evil).”
There you have it – straight from the Koran. It is this writer’s hope and prayer not only that many Islamic terrorists might be miraculously converted (as was Saul on the road to Damascus – see Acts 9), but that millions of peace-loving Muslims will have their eyes opened, will stop denying the truth, and will finally reject the Koran as a source of evil teachings. These teachings have been inspired, not by the Creator of all life, but by an invisible terrorist whom Jesus Christ identified as “a murderer from the beginning, who abode not in the truth” (John 8:44). Jesus taught love for the entire world, including our enemies (Matthew 5:44). He sacrificed His own life to pay for our sins (1 Cor. 15:3). Salvation comes by faith in Him alone (Acts 4:12). His Book is truth, not the Koran.
