are there such things as moderate muslims ?

Question

1)if there are,where are they?
2)if there are,how many?
3)if there are,whom they have more in common with? us or the terrorists?
if they are our allies,that they have more in common with us than with the terrorists,why do we fear that they will support terrorists? aren't these terrorists their "true enemy" ? if the so called moderate muslims are too stupid to fight us rather than fight their"true enemy", why do we need them for the "WOT"?
4)are these moderate muslims helpful?
irag war has been for 4 years and the americans run out of patience with bush
and since 2001,6 years,what have moderate muslims done? not enough,should the americans run out of patience with them too?
why do they are so ineffective?
there are 2 cases
1-maybe they are the majority,but are too stupid and coward to crush the jihadist,or even secretly agree with them
2-maybe they are really hate the terrorists,but their number is too low
either,they are the inefective allies
and do you agree with this?

"Whoever has the moderate muslims as allies does not need enemies"

why do the 99% so inefective?
they can't defeat the 1%

Answer 1

Whoa! You're opening up a can of worms with that question... honestly, I don't know how many Muslims consider themselves to be moderate. But I would say the proportion is probably about the same as the proportion of moderate Christians versus bullheaded blind-faith fundamentalist Christians.

I think the real question here is, are there really any moderate followers of any organized religion? I somehow doubt it... organized religion gains its strength by training its followers to be... well, freakin' crazy... and to hate members of other organized religions, or people who don't follow any organized religion... how to blindly believe in something without evidence or proof of any kind... and to pass this ignorance on to our offspring... and to pre-judge and discriminate against others based on preconceived notions of what is right and what is wrong... etc.

Can you tell I don't care for organized religion? And can anyone really blame me?

Answer 2

May the peace, blessing and mercy of God be upon you

Yes, there are MANY moderate Muslims, although I do not to add this title, we are True Muslims.

1) They are ALL over the world in Every country
2) Over a Billion 1 000 000 000
3) The terrorists have perverted the teaching Islam and are not following it properly, any Scholar of Islamic Jurisprudence will tell you that

The people of Al-Qaeda and their supporters are Khawarij research that term

Bro, I have a Pakistani Background, the Pakistani government has done MORE than ANYONE else in the War on Terror

No your analysis is incorrect, Moderate Muslims are the Majority, the Terrorists are the minority but they just yell louder and get the media attention more.

Why do you forget that Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Egypt are all Muslim countries who are allies on the War on Terror?

Answer 3

It has been over 5 years since i read the Koran, but I do remember why it scared me so much. There is actually a place were it says Any Muslim that does not active seek to kill kappas* will never see Paradise. * In English, the word kappa is translated as non-believer, but the real meaning is the word infidel. This includes all non-muslims, and any muslims that do not dedicate themselves to killing. It literally means that any Muslim that ever meets a "infidel" and does not kill them, becomes one, and must be killed. When I pointed this out to the muslim spiritual leader while I was in prison, and asked him if I had misunderstood it, he studied it for 3 weeks, then told me I did not, that is what it says. NOTE... I am not a Muslim. I read the Koran after the Sep 11 attacks because I wanted to know what kind of people would do something like that. Now I know.

Answer 4

Most Moslems are moderate, law-abiding citizens. The fundamentalist Chrisitans in the West tend to show them all as fanatics, in order to scare people away from the knowledge of the Holy Quran.

Answer 5

hmmm i am an american muslim and i say to you this
1.islam and christianity are not the same. (as well as judiasm)
2. there are millions of these so called good muslims in whom you expect to degrade themselves and give up their religious beliefs for your satisfaction. hense the saudis. if it weren't for these so called EVIL muslims you would not have oil to run your car and heat your house.
3.no one asked the americans to come to iraq or asked the jews to go and take over palestine. these were done by FORCE. which any way you want to look at it is considered terrorism even from the geneva conventions human rights.
4.terrorism is in the eye of the beholder of thought. 20 million dollars an hour of oil has been pumped out of iraq in oil every hour for the last three years and counting. this money is not being used to rebuild iraq nor is going back into american pockets. all this money is going into the politicians, lobbyists, and privatly owned oil companies. i am sure you know haliburton which is cheney's and bushes oil company. considering this war is funded with the american tax payers money and the money being taken is not going to the american tax payers i am surprised you are still ignorant enough to declare muslims as your "terrorists"
5.muslims have a right to their own land, we have a right to believe what ever we choose to believe with out people like you telling us what we should believe. the same goes for you. muslims do not invade america and tell christians and jews how to live. neither do they do this in europe or south america.
6.as far as allies goes how do you expect for one minute that muslims should just lie down and except the fact that the west has handed over palestine to jewish people. this is not right. this would be like england comming here and saying o well all you americans must give up the land that was stolen from the indians as well as the mexicans. same difference. i am sure you would not like that very much. you would fight for your home and your land just like muslims do. no one asked americans or any country from the west to invade their land. the west invaded muslim land because they want their oil and they want to control their money. religion is just a cover up. there are 56 prodominitly muslim countries world wide. it is amazing that only arab countries with oil are targeted. pretty convient. i suggest you do more research on this topic before you make statements as absurd as these. muslims have never started a war they have always fought when attacked which muslims have every right to do so. not every one thinks like you.

Answer 6

An Internet "troll" is a person who delights in sowing discord on the Internet. He (and it is usually he) tries to start arguments and upset people.

Trolls see Internet communications services as convenient venues for their bizarre game. For some reason, they don't "get" that they are hurting real people. To them, other Internet users are not quite human but are a kind of digital abstraction. As a result, they feel no sorrow whatsoever for the pain they inflict. Indeed, the greater the suffering they cause, the greater their 'achievement' (as they see it). At the moment, the relative anonymity of the net allows trolls to flourish.

Trolls are utterly impervious to criticism (constructive or otherwise). You cannot negotiate with them; you cannot cause them to feel shame or compassion; you cannot reason with them. They cannot be made to feel remorse. For some reason, trolls do not feel they are bound by the rules of courtesy or social responsibility.

Answer 7

The Verse Of The Sword from Al-Tawbah
Fight and slay the pagans (infidels) wherever ye find them, and seize them,

"Prophet, make war on unbelievers and hypocrites, and deal rigorously
with them." - Sura 9:73

Worry about the extremeist that sleeps in the white house that is doing more damage to this country than a few muslims in airplanes
