Please read the following and then tell me do you still think that Islam the religion of terrorisms?

Question

God (Allah) said in the holly Quran:
''For that cause We decreed for the Children of Israel that whosoever killeth a human being for other than manslaughter or corruption in the earth, it shall be as if he had killed all mankind, and whoso saveth the life of one, it shall be as if he had saved the life of all mankind.
He also said (ordering us):
''Allah forbids you not, with regard to those who fight you not for (your) Faith nor drive you out of your homes, from dealing kindly and justly with them: for Allah loveth those who are just''Sura No: 60, Verse No:8
Also Prophet Mohammad said on the speech of the Farewell Pilgrimage
" O people! Listen to what I say. I do not know whether I will ever meet you at this place once again after this current year. It is unlawful (forbidden) for you to shed the blood of one another or take (unlawfully) the fortunes of one another.’

Answer 1

I'm not saying that it is a religion of terrorism but it is the religion that most terrorist kill in the name of.

Answer 2

>>>God (Allah) said in the holly Quran:
''For that cause We decreed for the Children of Israel that whosoever killeth a human being for other than manslaughter or corruption in the earth, it shall be as if he had killed all mankind,>>>

In other words, it's okay in the Quran to kill a human being for "corruption in the earth."

Muslim terrorists believe that just being a non-Muslim qualifies as "corruption."

>>>He also said (ordering us):
''Allah forbids you not, with regard to those who fight you not for (your) Faith nor drive you out of your homes, from dealing kindly and justly with them: for Allah loveth those who are just''Sura No: 60, Verse No:8>>>

So Allah forbids killing people who do not fight against the Muslim faith -- but this verse seems to imply that it's okay to kill perceived opponents of Islam. Which probably rings particularly true in the minds of Islam's terrorists.


>>>Also Prophet Mohammad said on the speech of the Farewell Pilgrimage
" ... It is unlawful (forbidden) for you to shed the blood of one another or take (unlawfully) the fortunes of one another.’ >>>

This speech was, presumably, made to only Muslims. It forbids Muslims to shed the blood of one another -- but there's no prohibition here against shedding the blood of people who are outside the bounds of "one another."

In other words, it's implied that it's okay for Muslims to kill non-Muslims.

Just my thoughts.

Answer 3

No "religion" (or at least any that I know) is in itself violent or a terrorist religion. Religions are merely organized institutions that deal with the beliefs and teachings related to a certain higher power. Now, religious followers can be terrorists or be violent. People often attribute traits portrayed by a small sample of followers to the whole religion, which is an unfair generalization that more often than not be can be attributed to the condemner as well. SOME Muslims are terrorists. So are some Christians. Islam is not a terrorist religion, itself.

Answer 4

I never actually said (or thought, for that matter) that it was a religion of terrorism. There are, however, an awful lot of Muslims who seem to feel that beheading someone for publishing cartoons is a reasonable - in fact, a praiseworthy - response. How do you reconcile the verses you posted with that?

Edit: Peace C - irrelevant. No one - at least, no one I know - has ever said that every terrorist act in the twentieth and twenty-first century was committed by Muslims. You're pretty much stuck with the fact that there were a few at least, though, and those verses above would seem to prohibit that. My question stands - how do you reconcile them?

And good old Punter - do you ever actually respond to the point of a question?

Answer 5

Well, we have a problem. There is no Christian order that tells us to feed our fellow believers poison in Kool aid. There is no commandment for us to commit mass suicide ordained by Jesus. And yet we had Jim Jones.

It is viewed by many here in the USA, that we have all these Muslims that are another rendition of Jim Jones. They only have a different religion: Islam.

So with the verses out of the Koran that seem to say that they shouldn't do any killing, and yet they do and it is so very common. So your religion is full of Jim Jones, not you, but even nations run by the others.

So if you don't mind, I'll keep my guard up and praise Allah everytime we send them to the grave.

Answer 6

For every verse you give me that says Islam is a religion of peace, I could give you 10 that says it's a violent religion.Here's just a few:
1)Sura 9:29---"Fight those who believe not in God nor the last day nor hold that forbidden which has been forbidden by God and his apostle nor acknowledge the religion of truth(even if they are) of the people of the book, until they pay the Jizya(religious tax) with willing submission and feel themselves subdued"
2)Sura 9:5----Fight and slay the pagans wherever you find them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem(of war)".
But let's just forget all those verses. I don't want to paint all muslims with the same brush of violence.
Here is just one of the many problems I have with the Muslim religion and the Koran:
1)The Koran teaches that the original new testament("gospel") is a revelation of God[sura5:46,67,69,71]
2)Jesus was a prophet and His words should be believed by Muslims[sura4:171;5:78]. As the Muslim scholar Mufassir notes,
"muslims believe all prophets to be truthful because they are commissioned in the service of humanity by almighty god(Allah)".
3)Christians(according to the Koran) were obligated to accept the new testament of Mohammads day(7th century AD,sura 10:94).
In this sura Mohammad is told:"If thou wert in doubt as to what we(Allah) have revealed unto thee, then ask those who have been reading the book(the bible) from before thee;the truth has indeed come to thee from thy Lord; so be in no wise of those who doubt." Abdul Haqq notes that "the learned doctors of Islam are sadly embarrassed by this verse, referring the prophet(Mohammad) to the people of the book(the bible) who would solve his doubts."
Christians respond to this verse by making 2 crucial points:
1) Mohammad(who wrote the Koran) would not have asked them to accept a corrupted version of the new testament.
2)The new testament today is substantially identical to the new testament of mohammads day, since todays new testament is based on existing manuscripts that go back even centuries before Mohammads day.. Hence, by the logic of this verse, Mohammad should accept the authenticity of todays bible. But if they do, then they should accept the doctrines of the deity of Christ and the Trinity and the crucifiction of Christ since that is what the new testament teaches. However, Muslims categorically reject these teachings. Hence, the dilemma within the islamic view.
There is another inconsistency within the islamic view regarding the bible. The Koran says that the bible is the "Word of God"(sura 2:75). Muslims also insist that Gods word cannot be altered or changed.. But if both these statements are correct then it follows that the bible has not been changed or corrupted, either before or since Mohammads time. However, Islamic teaching insists that the bible has been corrupted. Thus the contradiction.
Furthermore, it is unreasonable to suppose that the jews and christians would conspire together to change the old testament.
For the jews feelings towards the christians had always been hostile. Why would 2 hostile parties(jews and christians) who shared a common old testament, conspire to change it to support the views of a common enemy, the muslims? It does not make any sense.
What is more, at the supposed time of the textual changes, jews and christians were spread all over the world, making the supposed collaboration to corrupt the text impossible. And the number of copies of the old testament in circulation were too numerous to guarantee that the changes would be uniform.
Also, there is no mention of any such changes by former jews or christians of the time who became muslims.....something that they surely would have reported if it were true.
Furthermore,Muslim rejection of the new testament is contrary to the overwhelming manuscript evidence. All the Gospels are preserved in the Chester Beatty Papyri, dated about AD 250. And the vast majority of the new testament exists in the Vaticanus Manuscript B that dates from about 325-350AD. In addition, there are nearly 5,700 other manuscripts of the new testament dating from the 2nd century AD to the 15th century(hundreds of which are from before the time of Mohammad) that confirm the same substatial text of the whole new testament existing in Mohammads day.
To sum it all up, Islam and the Koran diametrically contradict many parts(and doctrines) of the bible that the Koran itself says is the Word of God. Muslims try and explain this away by saying that the bible has been corrupted. But I've clearly shown why that can't be true. That's just one of the reasons why I don't believe in Islam. There are many other reasons to reject the religion.

Answer 7

I'm a Christian and I don't believe that muslims are terrorists. Its a choice that certain people make. There are terrorists from other religious groups as well. People who say things like this are narrow minded.

Answer 8

Nope !! No At all !!

but some blind would love to go for media which project islam from the acts of some redical ignorants and generalise it for whole muslim community ! anyways.the truth is that Yes islam is a religion of peace !! and now i damn care what the heck other peoples think of it ! as i know my religion very well !

Answer 9

everyone has a cause they feel they have to defend. I dont think its cool to kill though. But you do have to give the suicide bombers credit. They are killing themselve for their beliefs and for their religion and for their country. I would never do that, no matter what I belive in. I would never hurt other ppl and I would never hurt myself. You also have to remember that not all ppl of Islam are terrorists.

Answer 10

this also in the koran? Qur’an:9:5“Fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, take them captive, harass them, lie in wait and ambush them using every stratagem of war.”
Qur’an:8:39“So fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief [non-Muslims]) and all submit to the religion of Allah alone (in the whole world).”

Answer 11

No it is not a religion of terrorism .. all verses tell about fight all about defend ... the prophet Muhammad never start a war he always defend his people and his great religion ... he fight the unbelievers who torture innocent people and force them to go out of their home . Muhammad never force any one to be Muslim ..
the Quran says 109 "O disbelievers .. i worship not that which ye worship ... nor worship ye that which i worship .. Nor will ye worship that which i worship ... unto you your religion, and unto me my religion"
