"Fight in the cause of God those who fight you, but do not transgress limits; for God loveth not transgressors. (The Noble Quran, 2:190)"

"On that account: We ordained for the Children of Israel that if any one slew a person - unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land - it would be as if he slew the whole people: and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people. Then although there came to them Our apostles with clear signs, yet, even after that, many of them continued to commit excesses in the land. (The Noble Quran, 5:32)"

"Those who invoke not, with God, any other god, nor slay such life as God has made sacred except for just cause, nor commit fornication; - and any that does this (not only) meets punishment. (But) the Penalty on the Day Of Judgement will be doubled To him, and he will dwell Therein in ignominy. (The Noble Quran, 25:68-69)"

"But if the enemy incline towards peace, do thou (also) incline towards peace, and trust in God: for He is One that heareth and knoweth (all things). (The Noble Quran, 8:61)"

"If thou dost stretch thy hand against me, to slay me, it is not for me to stretch my hand against thee to slay thee: for I do fear God, the cherisher of the worlds. (The Noble Quran, 5:28)"

To Reverend Madge, read that verse thoroughly. It says to drive them out "from where they drove you out" as in the home you once owned but was stolen from you by them.

Answer 1

I was readng my Quran last night and came across this

Chapter 17 Verse 33

" And do not kill anyone whose killing Allah has forbidden , except for a just cause"

This is proof that islam is peaceful, but the very few that make islam look bad do not know this

Answer 2

Muslimah, you've been on this site long enough to know that you shouldn't cherry-pick. Your first verse is from 2:190.
You didn't read 2:191, did you?

"And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution is worse than slaughter. And fight not with them at the Inviolable Place of Worship until they first attack you there, but if they attack you (there) then slay them. Such is the reward of disbelievers."

Answer 3

Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued," (9:29). There are 100's more. The Quran is filled with violence to the non believer. ... Do you want more?

Answer 4

Reverend Red Mage,you wrote:

"And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution is worse than slaughter. And fight not with them at the Inviolable Place of Worship until they first attack you there, but if they attack you (there) then slay them. Such is the reward of disbelievers."

"them" in 2:191 is actually refering to non-muslims who attack muslims,not to all non-muslims including non-muslims who doesn't attack muslim.don't get misunderstood with it.

If islam does not allow killing. Then why are they killing non muslims? Why are they killing americans, when not every american is a christain?
