Love and Peace. Islam and Christianity.?

Question

PLEASE DONT ATTACK ME OR CALL ME HATEFUL

I NEED HELP UNDERSTANDING!

Please try to explain why these thing are happening and where (if any) are the christian equivalents TODAY?

1) Muslims killing muslims in Iraq? Not just terrorist and Iraqi police, but Shiite vs Sunni, etc EVERYDAY they kill each other???

2) There is a long past, but there was peace in Lebanon since 2000. Hezbollah attacked Israel for 3 months before they returned fire. Why do muslims still support Hezbollah?

3) With Taqiya in the Quran, how can non-muslims trust Muslims?

4) Why can't Muslims pray to Allah and ask him to help them believe (proof) this is considered insulting. Why can't they pray with a little dirt on them, or without shaving body hair, or after touching a pig. What if you really need to pray to him but the rituals aren't done??? He won't hear his people? In what ways (exactly) is Allah loving (uniquely form others)?

Answer 1

The violent Islam is a political movement.

Answer 2

It is great that you are asking this question out of curiosity and not relying om the mainstream media for your answers, this is a sign of intelligence and being openminded.

Muslims are killing each other in Iraq but in the civil war and others Christians have killed Christians. Civil wars have occured in many countrys but an "issue" is made of everything Muslims do.

I Am muslim and do not know much about Hezbollah , and don't care much about politics. I just know that GOD will help the people that Israel has opressed and they will answer for being opressors on the day of judgement.

TRUE Muslims are pious and easily trusted but often ignored because if they aren't doing anything extreme society often does not see them.

You can pray to Allah(or God , Allah is the same God of the Christians & Jews) , if you are not able to purify yourself with water for the 5 obligitory prayers you can do tayammum ... This involves rubbing your hands in dust/ or a surface outdoors then acrross your face etc. and then you pray.
In addition to the 5 perscribed daily prayers you can make du'a , or pray any time. It is prayer without going through all of the motions / details of the other prayers. You can praise God, Ask God for anything at this moment and you can do it while driving, shopping, if you see a wrec, if you get upset, etc. any time
Any prayer is based on your intention, and God-the most gracious, most merciful - knows your intention.

You are open minded, please check out www.islamway.com for more info. I appreciate the question without an insult!!!!!!!!!

Answer 3

1) cuz of islamic reasons that no nonmuslim wood really understand unless they r serious and hav studied Islam--- actually its because they believ in things that r totally far fetched and things that r like ignoring wat is mentioned in the Quran...

2)Muslims in Lebanon support Hezbollah for protecting them from Israels attacks over the past month. many other muslims r double minded...

3)taqiya is not in the Quran because in the Quran it says that it is a SERIOUS sin 2 lie.

3), if u were 2 pray 2 GOD woold u pray 2 him wearing a rag? plz! He deserves a lot more than a rag! He created u, gav u shelter and everything else so if I were u i wood get my manners strait! and if u reallly need 2 pray 2 Him and like times running out w/e then it is permissible 2 pray w/o the rituals but 1 ritual u can't miss is ablution. He is lovely in all ways and has more mercy than any other perosn or thing in the hole world so He forgives and does things 2 try 2 make u happy.

Answer 4

thank you for your question and i would be glad to answer them .

1-a true muslim and it would help if you read the quran or the saysing of the prophet mohammed peace be upon him .said a muslim that kills a muslim is not a muslim anymore.ie it means that he becomes a kafer or a non believer . and what is happening right now in iraq i truely doubt that is from a true muslim that really knows and understands islam. basiclly it is hatered and money that is killing in iraq.
2-see you know what you only read if you remember really how it all started when israel through a bomb shell in gaza (palestine) that killed 7 people from the same family and the only survivor was a 7 yr old girl . thats when hamas ended up the 2 year truce they had with israel and kidnapped a soldire then israel invaded gaza in full attack to supposidley retrive the soldire. killing people and civilans more than 58 as i remember left and right . hizboallah at that time as a revenge kidnapped 2 israely soldires and killed 8. the soliders where inside lebanon and hezboallah never went inside israel to kill them they were unlawfully inside lebanon. and thats the truth.
3-see this question i cant really answer it but muslimsi think are trust worthy because of thier religon asks them to be faithfull and sencer.
4-we have a saying in arabic (al deen yors walys osr) which means religon iis easy we only make it hard. you can pray anywhere and everywhere . but we beleieve when we pray we are in a meeting with our god and when you are in a meeting with your superior you have to be clean and dressed. last pigs are dirty even science proves that they are dirty we dont eat any pork or any food that has pork or pork extract like gelly. and our god listens to us and we believe everything has a purpose or a reason and only him know why is that happening we can only pray and ask and it is upon him to answer cause he knows the best.

allah a3lam
thank you again

Answer 5

1. whats going on in Iraq, is not related to Islam. there are a number of people from both sides who are uneducated extremists and haters. they go around planting bombs and killing each other and many innocent citizens. This is not part of Islam and God will punish them.

2. The war between lebanon and israel goes back many years, it doesnt make sense to look back just a few years.. the conflict began many years ago, and in reality israel is occupying lebanese land and many of its people as prisoners, so it only makes sense that the people fight for their land and family back.. check this interview out, short one but interesting :

3. i dont really understand what u mean by Taqiya??

4. Muslims can pray to God any time they want and ask for his help and guidance.. the actual five times a day pray requires that the rituals are done, but if it wasnt possible or water was not avaible then there is other solutions, u can look it up if u like... who said they cant pray with a little dirs on them and etc....?? part of the reason why rituals are done is to feel clean and pure and prepare urself to go pray ... praying is talking to God, and it is respectful to be clean while doing so!! but if it wasnt able to be done, then no one is going to face consequences!!

Answer 6

#1) regardless of religion or politics, if people are killing others, especially their own kind, they are in direct disobedience to God himself, for God wants us to love others, and this is most definitely NOT love, wouldn't every one agree?
#2)Purely politics, and serious denial on both sides. Each side beleives they are right and noone is willing to back down and take responsibility.
#3)Muslim or not, noone can really trust anyone anymore. Everything and everyone is up for grabs, it's like do as much as you can no matter the cost.
#4)I firmly beleive that my God is truly loving and would not make requirements in order for us to come to Him. Would you get cleaned up before you take a bath? God is our cleanser, our purifier, our deliverer, our forgiveness and our helper. We can go to Him at any time, for any reason, and without guilt. He loves us as we are. We cannot hide from God, we should come to Him JUST AS WE ARE! This is the truest love I could ever know!

Answer 7

#1. yes muslimas are killing muslims for one reason casue WE HATE EACHOTHER WE DONT LIKE EACH OTHER
2.I dont know why we support our selves.
3 Easy we are truthful (im muslim)
4. first of all we cant do none of those things cause it says that in quran its just like a bible u guys have to believe in the bible and we do in the quran soo yeah and we always pray to allah!!!

Answer 8

ok its like this. Peace is a observe that comes after. at the beginning expertise is incredibly considerable. Islamic and Christianity inflicting issues. I this project i'd help no person. the two faith could think of that they did a mistake. i think of peace and conflict would come after the term expertise.

Answer 9

You cant generalize the entire poplulation of each religion like that. You make it sound as if that is the way the entire faith acts and its not. That would be like saying all jocks are steriod users. Kind of stinks to be put into a steriotype.

Answer 10

Muslims need to step up and stop their brothers who are murderers,then maybe public opinion will change against them as a lot!

Answer 11

I think Islam is a political movement, practising the pre-historic arabian culture.
