For Muslims...?

Question

if it is so great to kill yourself for God then why isnt there a steadiy stream of Muslim boys killing themselves to get to heaven. By now there shouldnt be any Muslim men left in the world. I am sorry if i dont understand this correctly or if this sounds rude or racist its not meant too so please take no offense. I would just like to know why all Muslim men arent lining up to kill themselves for the virgins and the promise of God that you preach. Can any of you tell me? Once again i am sorry if i offend any Muslims as its not my intentions.

Answer 1

Suicide is a great sin in Islam and "suicide bombers" are not in any way real muslims, they are only muslim by name. I don't know where they got the impression that killing themselves would take them to heaven because that is SO untrue. The word "jihad" has nothing to do with holy war. It basicaly means to fight for your rights as a muslim. Example, many muslim women are experiencing difficulty wearing the veil these days, so for a woman to go out wearing the veil anyways in like "jihad." She is strong in her beliefs and is doing something that in no way harms anyone else. I hope this helps.

Answer 2

There is no steady stream because contrary to popular belief...Muslims live in peace and follow the word of God. I can see its not your intention to insult your just saying if all the crap about terror and bombings where true? where are all the killings and dead Muslims? Well observed. Where are long queues of Muslims lining up to kill themselves or anyone else. But the people who fear Islam would love the world to think this is true. Well its not true. And I'm not offended. Good for you for making the point...

Answer 3

Why should one kill him/herself. It is insane, and anyone preaching that is a misguided psycho, to say the least. Only if you die in the defense of your home, dignity and honour and only if there is no other way, will you ever be called a martyr. Don't believe everything you hear. All humans are the children of God (meant as dependent on God, like a child is dependent on his own family), this is what Mohammad says. He also says that the best of people are those who are most beneficial to other people, not only to Muslims, but ALL people. Those people who profess killing are the dispeccable few. They exist in all cultures and should be eliminated like termites.

Answer 4

Actually as a Muslim, I know, that killing yourself is a wrong action according to the Quran. When they mean that they will sacrifice their lives, does not actually mean that they will do it. It is just showing that they have a great love for God and will no matter what obey him. You know how they say Americans will die for Freedom? Well, Muslims will die for God. Those muslim boys killing themselves are doing the wrong thing. If you just, not suicide, just accidently or sickness, you don't mind giving your self to God.

~You know, if you want to know more about this, get the English Version of the Quran, then you will really understand it.~

Answer 5

I see you're a thinking young man.

1. Suicide is not allowed in Islam
2. No where in the Qur'an does it say that you will get 72 virgins for killing yourself
3. Islam does not preach what you have just said. You media does and you've been... well... suckered into beleiving it.

The source of Islam is the Qur'an. Look into it. Visit a mosque and they'll be more than happy to explain it to you.

Take care bro.

Answer 6

To remain quite against evils is also a sin.
All who are killing themselves are not muslims.
Everyone is not killing with the same intension of what you have described in your question.
A muslim must die for God, the word of God.

Answer 7

The majority of muslims come from 3rd world countries and/or have a lower level or education and/or IQ compared to the rest of the world population. This is caused by the average muslim having 3.5 children on average compared to that of Western countries where the average is 1.5 children. This below average IQ lends them to believe everything their elders tell them such as the false beliefs of islam, the religion of muslims. muslims are taught to hate and taught intolerance from a very young age (hence children suicide bombers) and never develop a better IQ to understand any different. Basically it boils down to brainwashing by the religion of death, islam.

Click on the link below. Scroll down to where it says channels (underneath latest articles) and click on the file 'The salafee position on terroism, high jacking and kidnapping. You will find what you are looking for there with proof from the Quran and sunnah (legal ways of the prophet).

Answer 9

Well Jihad doesnt means HOLY WAR , it means TO FIGHT IN THE WAYOF ALLAH , that can be anyway not only physical use of hands or guns

and why should we start killing each other ? we would go to hell

you just are taking on one point . Islam also says DONT EVEN HURT A MUSLIM OR NON MUSLIM .
