Most non-Muslims have not studied Islam. But then again many Muslims don’t live by the basics of Mohamed’s teachings. Here are some excerpts about Muslim basics:
http://spirituality.indiatimes.com/articleshow/995419914.cms
“Islam, The Religion Of Peace”
The model world, according to Islam, is a world of peace. Islam in itself means a religion of peace.
**
There are many verses in the holy Quran and hadith, which emphasise on compassion. For instance, the Prophet said: "O people, be compassionate to others so that you may be granted compassion by God."
**
Once a person came to the Prophet and asked him, "O Prophet, give me an advice by which I may be able to manage all the affairs of my life." The Prophet replied: "Don't be angry. Even if people provoke you, don't lose temper and forgive those who make you angry. Adopt forgiveness as your behaviour."
One of the hardest things to follow for us imperfect humans is to willingly think and act with compassion and forgiveness towards the “other”. Yet it has been taught by a number of “religions” including Islam.
But the concept appears to us as “not logical”, “impractical” or “unrealistic”. So we find excuses or make “interpretations” or pick more “logical” parts from our holy books to “justify” our actions, and forget about the basic truth.
That’s why we have Jihad and why we had “holy wars” and why we are still condemning and fighting “the others” (infidels or whatever!). That’s also why we have various fractions of Muslims or Christians or Jews or Buddhists etc., though they ALL teach the wisdom of compassion and forgiveness.
Just imagine! If all humans would willingly (not because they have been told) act out of compassion and forgiveness toward the "others" there truly would be peace on Earth! - No, I'm not perfect either!
"If any show patience and forgive, that truly would be an exercise of courageous will and resolution in the conduct of affairs." Qur'an: Sura 42:43 (Counsel)

It means submission and you're quite right you are full of it. I suspect you have been reading islam for dummies which tends to make it look all sweetness and light. Darth Vader if he was real would have been real proud of Mo. Just imagine a war lord with the morals of a female dog in heat claims to be a prophet and idiots believe it. Islam is a rip off of the Jewish religion and a very bad one at that.

You may be much more dumb than the dummies sir.
If you want people to understand your faith, you must teach them in a modest manner. Calling Jews and christians DUMB sounds like Muslim fanatic behavior.
It's not what "Islam" means; it's how others see it. Don't blame others for calling your faith 'Idiotic'. Many so-called Muslims here...on this forum discuss like idiots...and as I see it, you are king of the Idiots. Now go away.

Because you call them dumb people, while people in each group among them think that their group is exclusively true.
The change will occur when you treat them with love and respect. Your Lord orders you to do so, and you also claim that your religion is exclusively true and you are peaceful people. If their actions don't prove what they say, then what about your actions?
The most serious problem of our world today is that we keep on accusing other people for the same faults of ours!!

Just think of Islam and its control of the world at one time. Plus the way Islam treats some people including women.

And how does name calling work into your peacefullness? I completely understand Islam, my friend. What I KNOW is that Jesus is a direct descendent of the MOST HIGH GOD, and the only way to reach God the Father in Heaven. I am a Christian. Peace to you... you could use a little more, calling folks "dumb" and all.

Because Islam has lot of oil.
Thanks for the information that Islam in Arabic means peace.
All religions are full of such pious words little followed in practice.
It is the structure of the society that has the last word.

You're also full of something else. A lot of it.
Show me the peace.
Do you mean like the egyptian families that were jumping up and down, cheering peacefully when the world trade center fell?
Or do you mean the Imams who hold their peace when their own people threaten terror?
Or the way taliban cut arms off of women for not wearing the proper burkha? That peace
Which peace are you talking about dummy?

Most of Jews and christians understand the islam and know everything about it but they cannot accept it,and it is not our proplem to make them be muslim,our proplem and duty as muslims is to pbublish our religion and make them undertand it clearly then they must choose freely.
i know what u mean,u mean that there are alot of ppl insult islam and muslim and some of them beleive that islam is the religion of terrorism and muslims are terrorists,some of them claim alot about islam and some of them abuse the verses of the quran in order to prove that our religion is bad religion,the question now is Why do they do that???????
some of them donot know alot about islam and the things which they think that they know about islam are WRONG and ClAIMS about our religion.
some of them hate islam coz they know that it is the truth but they cannot accept it becoz the darkness cover their hearts.
some of them are close mind and ignorant ppl who have limited minds which make them unable to think and to learn anything about islam.
anyway they are poor ppl.they are not poor for money but they are poor for the truth and we have nothing after spreading islam but praying for them.

because the big bad propaganda machines work hard to keep them in the dark.. They only show the radicals so Americans have NO concept of Islam And most are weak and cannot look for themselves. I AM American..by birth..Watch your tongue laddie, I'm not against you yet..there are many others here who share my views.What are my views? There is good and evil in all things..perhaps we need to stand back and let the radical religious hate mongers kill each other to the last egg and drop of semen.. Then we, the meek, together in and of all faiths.. live in peace again
