What is it about the infidel that you find so offensive? Is it the lifestyle, the supposed 'freedom' he enjoys or simply his very existence? Do you truly believe Allah wants see all infidels killed?

Why are most of the Muslims fundamentalists and terrorists?

Answer:

This question is often hurled at Muslims, either directly or indirectly, during any discussion on religion or world affairs. Muslim stereotypes are perpetuated in every form of the media accompanied by gross misinformation about Islam and Muslims. In fact, such misinformation and false propaganda often leads to discrimination and acts of violence against Muslims. A case in point is the anti-Muslim campaign in the American media following the Oklahoma bomb blast, where the press was quick to declare a ‘Middle Eastern conspiracy’ behind the attack. The culprit was later identified as a soldier from the American Armed Forces.

Let us analyze this allegation of ‘fundamentalism’ and ‘terrorism’:


1. Definition of the word ‘fundamentalist’


A fundamentalist is a person who follows and adheres to the fundamentals of the doctrine or theory he is following. For a person to be a good doctor, he should know, follow, and practise the fundamentals of medicine. In other words, he should be a fundamentalist in the field of medicine. For a person to be a good mathematician, he should know, follow and practise the fundamentals of mathematics. He should be a fundamentalist in the field of mathematics. For a person to be a good scientist, he should know, follow and practise the fundamentals of science. He should be a fundamentalist in the field of science.


2. Not all ‘fundamentalists’ are the same


One cannot paint all fundamentalists with the same brush. One cannot categorize all fundamentalists as either good or bad. Such a categorization of any fund amentalist will depend upon the field or activity in which he is a fundamentalist. A fundamentalist robber or thief causes harm to society and is therefore undesirable. A fundamentalist doctor, on the other hand, benefits society and earns much respect.


3. I am proud to be a Muslim fundamentalist


I am a fundamentalist Muslim who, by the grace of Allah, knows, follows and strives to practise the fundamentals of Islam. A true Muslim does not shy away from being a fundamentalist. I am proud to be a fundamentalist Muslim because, I know that the fundamentals of Islam are beneficial to humanity and the whole world. There is not a single fundamental of Islam that causes harm or is against the interests of the human race as a whole. Many people harbour misconceptions about Islam and consider several teachings of Islam to be unfair or improper. This is due to insufficient and incorrect knowledge of Islam. If one critically analyzes the teachings of Islam with an open mind, one cannot escape the fact that Islam is full of benefits both at the individual and collective levels.


4. Dictionary meaning of the word ‘fundamentalist’


According to Webster’s dictionary ‘fundamentalism’ was a movement in American Protestanism that arose in the earlier part of the 20th century. It was a reaction to modernism, and stressed the infallibility of the Bible, not only in matters of faith and morals but also as a literal historical record. It stressed on belief in the Bible as the literal word of God. Thus fundamentalism was a word initially used for a group of Christians who believed that the Bible was the verbatim word of God without any errors and mistakes.

According to the Oxford dictionary ‘fundamentalism’ means ‘strict maintenance of ancient or fundamental doctrines of any religion, especially Islam’.

Today the moment a person uses the word fundamentalist he thinks of a Muslim who is a terrorist.


5. Every Muslim should be a terrorist


Every Muslim should be a terrorist. A terrorist is a person who causes terror. The moment a robber sees a policeman he is terrified. A policeman is a terrorist for the robber. Similarly every Muslim should be a terrorist for the antisocial elements of society, such as thieves, dacoits and rapists. Whenever such an anti-social element sees a Muslim, he should be terrified. It is true that the word ‘terrorist’ is generally used for a person who causes terror among the common people. But a true Muslim should only be a terrorist to selective people i.e. anti-social elements, and not to the common innocent people. In fact a Muslim should be a source of peace for innocent people.


6. Different labels given to the same individual for the same action, i.e. ‘terrorist’ and ‘patriot’


Before India achieved independence from British rule, some freedom fighters of India who did not subscribe to non-violence were labeled as terrorists by the British government. The same individuals have been lauded by Indians for the same activities and hailed as ‘patriots’. Thus two different labels have been given to the same people for the same set of actions. One is calling him a terrorist while the other is calling him a patriot. Those who believed that Britain had a right to rule over India called these people terrorists, while those who were of the view that Britain had no right to rule India called them patriots and freedom fighters.

It is therefore important that before a person is judged, he is given a fair hearing. Both sides of the argument should be heard, the situation should be analyzed, and the reason and the intention of the person should be taken into account, and then the person can be judged accordingly.


7. Islam means peace


Islam is derived from the word ‘salaam’ which means peace. It is a religion of peace whose fundamentals teach its followers to maintain and promote peace throughout the world.

Thus every Muslim should be a fundamentalist i.e. he should follow the fundamentals of the Religion of Peace: Islam. He should be a terrorist only towards the antisocial elements in order to promote peace and justice in the society.

Do you really think that what you call fundamentalists spend time arguing with you ?
Ask Muslims in general you may get the right answer : No ALLAH doesn't want Muslims to kill what you call "Infidels"
Jews, Christians, Hindus ... lived under Muslim rule and didn't get killed. Till today the do (Here's a good one: do you know that the former women minister in the palestinian authority Hanan Achraoui is Christian an NO MUSLIM EXPRESSED ANY THING AGAINST IT)
Now,
About Christianity and Judaism, Can you tell me where's the population of Musims and Jews that lived in Andaluzia( spain) , in Greece, in Bulgaria ... All massacred by christians ...
Do you like to be a Muslim under Israeli occupation ( you'll taste the tolerance and democracy ...)
They tried the same massacres lately in Bosnia and kossovo but the world is no more what it was ...
Truth hurts huh ...

I say good luck to all muslim fundamentalists. I was too whitewashed by all the western world (USA) attitudes, until recently having the truth about them exposed online, their links with Israel and the German DVD empires. It's about time that their crusades make a change for the world - remember the Christian crusades back in history and the greed of the western imperialist world against the undeveloped world. Christianity and Judaism are spent corrupt religions.
The sooner you can aid Palestine against their oppressors, the better!

heavily inspired with She devil's checklist. it rather is in basic terms to characteristic one greater: Surah 9:5 "yet while the forbidden months are previous, then combat and SLAY the Pagans [infidels] anyplace ye locate them, and grab them, beleaguer them, and lie in look ahead to them in each and every stratagem [of conflict]." people who can study for themselves see that Muslims are inspired to kill unbelievers under particular circumstances. it rather is interior the Qur'an. And the history of the Islamic countries is crammed with episodes of butchering infidels, whether you get rid of each and all of the circumstances the place they have been attacked first and so have been protecting themselves.

As much as Jews and Zionists believe they are the chosen people and everyone else is damned I suppose!!

Now ask yourself why Christians have maimed and killed for years (Hitler, Serbs in Bosnia, IRA, America in Iraq, Vietnam, etc.)

It is about time they spoke up. And non-muslims should not have to "read the Quran" to learn about them.
