When people walk around angry usually it is rooted by person being critical. Does Allah expect Muslims to be critical & judgmental of others?
Or is their anger problem rooted in revenge for Allah or unforgiveness towards others who don't conform to their way of thinking?

Sharezad, I have seen pictures of Muslim leaders & they look very angry.

fagies, In the Koran, God wants you to revenge for Him.
In the bible, God wants to be our revenger for us. In the bible God directs us to not go to bed in our anger, so the devil doesn't get a stronghold in our life.
Don't you see that God doesn't need us to revenge for Him? If we stew in our angry because others sin against God, then the devil gets a stronghold in our life.

Many people say that Islam is a religion of peace and respect for people. They are right, as long as the people are Muslims. Read the history of Islam and the writings of Mohammad and compare it to what he and others have done in the name of Islam. Their mission, and that of Mohammad, has always been to take over world governments and religions and make the world an Islamic state. It is so written. Check it out as I did. Have you ever wondered why Queen Isabella of Spain funded Columbus in 1492? The reason is that in 711 the Muslim empire of the Moorish government militarily moved into the Iberian Peninsula with the expressed motive of taking over Europe in the name of Islam. In short, they were stopped near the Pyranese Mountains and pushed back a little. Then, for over 700 years there were times of peace and times of conflict as the Muslims tried to continue their drive into Europe. Mostly, they learned to live together at the individual level. Then, in order not to be threatened by the establishment of an Islamic State, Isabel married a cousin, King Fernando of Argon, to join their armies and resources to push the Muslim Moors back onto the African continent. Columbus asked Isabella for funding in 1491. She told him to wait until they had driven the Muslim militants out of the Iberian peninsula. Once they did in 1492, she funded Columbus. Check out history for yourself.

Well, you could ask the same thing about Christians. Did they have an "anger problem" when they started the Crusades or the Spanish Inquisition? Do they have an "anger problem" when they're bombing abortion clinics? Do they have an "anger problem" when they want to remove science from schools and replace it with religious mythology?
Those who think the Muslims worship a "false god" crack me up. Don't you think EVERY religion believes it's worshipping the only true god? That's the problem.

Or maybe they don't have an anger problem at all and you're generalizing and jumping to conclusions. A lot of the nicest people around are Muslim. Their religion, no matter what you may think, does not promote violence. It is being used by the radical Muslims to justify their crimes, just like the Christians used it in the Crusades and the Spanish Inquisition.

If you are to judge the Muslims, by acts of a radical few, then you might as well be judging all of Christianity by the infamous KKK. Now, would that be fair to the rest of the Christian religion, I don't think so.
The Koran actually teaches peace, and surrendering to God.
True, I may not believe in all of its teachings, but it is not for me, or any other human, to decide whether it is the correct religion or not, or rather the God they follow be true or not, if their in fact be false gods, and not just one by many names.
Every religion on this planet, says it to be the "right" one, but how are we to know for sure? Who are we to judge? Every person must have faith in what they believe to be true. It is NOT for us, to tell them what is right and wrong, they must learn for themselves, and trust their own hearts and morals.

Thier problem is that most countries in which islam exists are arab nations that have not evolved. islam suffers from the same problem as christianity in many cases (though not as extreme): It refuses to acknowledge and co-exist with other religions in today's world. In short it has not evolved and seeks to forcibly convert others. Arab islamic societies are still socially backwards in many ways when it comes to certain freedoms and free discussion of thought. This translates to islam's violent approach. They become enraged over percieved offenses and things that are not in tune with thier beliefs, but if thier beliefs encroach on others, then too bad. It is this hypocritical thinking that causes problems in arab muslims. I have not seen this with american or black muslims so it would seem it is a product of arab culture and islam combined and not of just islam itself.

No, of course not. They are very good at anger. Apparently they don't have enough faith in Allah to let Him do the judging. They have to do it themselves.
Then the moderates come along and SAY they shouldn't be judged along with their radical bretheren. Why not? How are they acting to STOP THEM? Or could they possibly be in agreement with them, just too cowardly to join in the violence? Eithe way, they will not convince anyone of their 'peacefulness' as long as any of them continue their violence.
How many Christians claimed Christianity was peaceful during the Crusades?

I think it runs deeper than the two hypotheses you put forward. I believe their anger from insult is due to both religious and societal shame and guilt.
If you kick a dog long enough, eventually it will bite, right?

I think you are making to wide an assessment. Not all Muslims are angry. Neither are all Christians or Catholics, whatever. Anger is bred from intolerance and the muslims that are angry are intolerant radicals.

I am a muslim and in islam u are not allowed to judge people, coz only God can.
And real muslim dont feel anger, coz we are submissive to God´s will.
Still, u can make an assumption based on only few persons u might know.
Dont judge islam upon muslims: and try to read more about it ur self.
