I understand the reason you asked this question, its because of the individual acts of some illeterate, racist and stupid fundamentalists who are killing not only the non muslims but their fellow muslims also. The real facts are: -

Islam means peace and the spirit of Islam, as a religion, like any other religion is to provide peace amongst the society in general without any difference of religion, creed, color and tribe.

The definition of "The best Muslim" as per the teachings of Muhammad (peace be upon him) is", "A Muslim is the one, who does not harm others, either by his tongue or his hands".

If you read Islamic history, you will find that Muslims made peace treaties with Jews and Christians and lived with them in peace in Medina, where first Islamic Society was established.

The early leaders of Islam have been working in the fields of Jews to earn their daily living and the list includes names of Umar (2nd Caliph of ISlam) and Ali (4th Caliph of Islam).

During the rein of Umar (2nd Caliph), a Jew summoned the Caliph in the court and when the Caliph appeared in the court, the judge addressed him by the words, "O the leader of the faithful" (the common title of Caliphs). Umar replied to the judge, "This is the first injustice you have done in the court. I am present here as a party to the case and not as leader of the faithful, so its better you call me by my name; Umar ibn al-khattab."

No religion in the world teaches brutality and Islam is no exception. Islam does say that Muslims may fight against those who fight with them but does provide a strict code of conduct to be followed in the battles too. The code of conduct includes: -

No killing of women, children and aged men.
Kill only those who physically fight with you and stand opposite to you.
Dont kill a person who drops his weapon infront of you.
Dont cut any trees, dont spoil the crops and dont harm the animals.
If they seek truce, agree to it and be an instrument towards peace.

So if a faction of so called Muslims is doing such kind of acts that tentamount to killing of all non-Muslims, it against the teachings of Islam and they are not the right portraits of Islam.

Peace be upon you.

No. Islam is a religion very similar to Christianity, with different teachings of course, but the dogma is similar in structure.

Those who consider Americans to be infidels are extremists. It is partially based in religion, and partially based in the US's ridiculous foreign policies. But killing non-Muslims is not a part of the teachings of Islam.

Interestingly, the term "jihad" or "holy war" was not created as a term for the war between Muslims and non-Muslims. It is the term for the war between the Sunni and the Shi'a, two sects of Islam which split when Muhammad died, fighting over who his successor would be. It is only recently that the word has begun to be used in terms of global hatred and terrorism, and war against our culture.

No its a lie. Its different interpretations of the Koran. Don't listen to the biased rednecks who hate Muslims. I am fully unbiased since I am a Hindu and we dont have a quote unquote "grudge" against Muslims. there are passages that talk about the murder of non-believers. But these are not to be taken literally; they just try to say that when other people decide to attack you, you can defend yourselves. Think of the bible. It talks a lot about slavery and death but it doesnt endorse such things. Islam is a peaceful religion but it is stretched by looneys who misinterprete it.

Islam is the religion, Muslim is the follower. Muslims are not taught to kill infidels.

its a lie. im a muslim n im not taught to kill anybudy. ur government n media wants u to believe that so u hate muslims. they r the ones spreading hatred n teaching y'all to kill us muslims.
n all those suicide bombers, they blow themselves up becuz their families were blown up by israel or US. they dont have anyone or anything to live for. thats y they do it, n media makes it look like they did it for religious reasons. the root of it all is other countries (such as US or israel) messing with their countries. all those palestinians who lose their kids, familes, everyday. u think they wont do anything abt it? n israel's creating more of these suicide bombers by killing innocent civilians.
anyway. islam doesnt teach us to kill anyone. it's a LIE.

It's a lie. Rather like the one that says it's all right for Christians to kill them.

They are taught by corrupt leaders of Islam to do these things.
A true follower of Islam would not be more violent than your typical Christian.

you've a really restricted expertise about the question you're asking. there is no such difficulty talked about as 'Islam Bible', and if there is, then it really is the same bible that you carry on your hand. The holy e book of Islam is 'The Quran'. And we are no the position instructed to slay the jews or the christians or every person else. think ofyou've got study an answer revealed by ability of an anti-muslim in which he has quoted out of context to confuse you and produce a incorrect photo of Islam. it truly is taking position no longer only the following, yet elsewhere. those who're no longer Muslims are incredibly no longer satisfied about how Islam is spreading. so that they are mendacity. they are doing all that they probably can to save a grip on the inhabitants and in no way enable their human beings go and include Islam. Killing a guy, is like killing the total humanity (contained in the eyes of Islam). So killing is strictly prohibited. Waging a warfare is likewise no longer cautioned, yet fairly a treaty of accepted words is stated. If in case, issues do not artwork this way, a warfare must be made yet sparkling alerts ought to easily accept to the enemy till now the warfare. and contained in the warfare, you are able to't kill any of the enemy's women human beings, little ones and previous adult adult males... yet in easy words adult adult males. once the victory is yours, the prisoners of warfare are also dealt with very humanly. it truly is Islam. And Islam is discovered contained in the Quran and the Hadith. no longer contained in the fox information or CNN or BBC or Yahoo! solutions... the guy above me, 'Mickey GG', shame on him. no longer because he's mendacity. yet because he's making use of the go as his image. with none regrets he has been telling lies over lies... I only spoke to you about how Islam has been portrayed as a pretend relgion (faith of hatred and bla bla bal). Mickey GG is the perfect party. he's a techniques worse than Fox information. expensive questioner, my brother.. do no longer believe him. All that he's keeping is pretend. i'm 27 years previous Muslim and that i'm very much surprised to be certain that the failings he has written about Islam are something i have in no way ever heard of being contained in the territory of Islam and Muslims for 3 a lengthy time period!!! no longer even as quickly as!!
