Why does eveyone associates islam to violence?

Question

Does it mean that just because some muslims are terrorists that all muslims over the world are terrorists???? I live in a multicultural country . I live in an area where there are hindus christians and chinese living also. We all live in peace. We share our problems, we help each other. In fact we help them during theirs festivals. I even help them to decorate their christmas tree! We live like a family but eveyone follows his religion.Why can't eveyone live peacefilly? Why all muslims are treated like terrorists even if many of them are innocents??

Answer 1

Islam isn't limited to terrorism. The biggest atrocities of women today are commited in Muslim communities, against muslim women.

Women are treated as farm stock, and given amongst neighbors and families to resolve arguments and settle differences.
Rape is commited freely and laws favor men unashamedly. Honor crimes which include, death, beatings and rape are commited against women if they shame the family in whatever way, whether it be refusal to marry, having sex before marriage, not wearing the hijab, or talking to men not of the family.
If a woman is raped she has to produce four male witnesses to testify according to islamic law, or face stoning. Which still occurs in the world today.
It happens daily in Pakistan, a country the United States has been the holding the hand of for too long and should be deeply embarrassed. If a woman is thought to be having an affair..she can be stoned. While a man is free to have multiple wives. Does anyone know how this barbaric thing plays out?
First their hands are tied behind their backs, then a sack is placed upon their heads..and they are then buried till their shoulders. A group of stones are placed around the victim, Not too big, as too kill too quickly, and not too small..so that impact has an affect.
There is no freedom to express love or friendshp outside of the home and in public view. There is no freedom to question Islam, and there is still the idea of martyrdom, and which ever form it takes..as of late, its been suicide attacks. Forced conversions,
OR how about one of the most famous Muslims, the Ayatollah stating that, ""A man can have sexual pleasure from a child as young as a baby. However, he should not penetrate. If he penetrates and the child is harmed then he should be responsible for her subsistence all her life. This girl, however would not count as one of his four permanent wives".
Or how about just some quotes from the good book itself
"Fight those who do not believe in Allah, ... nor follow
the religion of truth... until they pay the tax in acknowledgment
of superiority and they are in a state of subjection."
Qur'an, Sura 9:29."
Not to mention their lovely promises to the world, The most recent one, to capture and kill Prince Harry. Or releasing images on the net chopping off the heads of foreigners, with looks of great accomplishment.
Although these incidences may in fact be the result of gross misinterpretation of Islam.. The fact is that, these horrible things are NOT happening in any other sect, religion, or culture in the world..with the same rapidity.
I suggest everyone go to this website..its one of the best informative and more worthwhile spots on the net:
http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/
AND if you are brave enough to know the real truth, then take a look at this video: http://theres-something-about-islam.blogspot.com/2006/04/stoning-video.html
I hope you remember these things..its all to easy to support Islam from the comforts of the Europe, Uk, US or Canada..But unfortunately most of the world lives in the shadow of its terror..And no one should support anything whether it be politicians, an organized religion, a group of people, or even an organization until they have fully researched it, and have a proper understanding.

Islam has been seen as violent before 9/11. It's just that 9/11 hit American soil and opened Americans' eyes to it. And made people look into it more. Muslims are followers of Islam and believers of the Qura'n. The Qura'n tells them more about killing their enemies (non-Muslims) instead of living thy enemy, as Jesus taught His followers. Not to say that all Muslims today will kill non-Muslims, but we are well aware that the Qura'n demands that the world will become an Islamic world eventually. The only way to have that is to convert non-Muslims or kill them off. The president of Iran is a huge believer in the Islamic world to come into being and he wants to see it during his lifetime. We see prophecies starting to come true. Fighting between Israel and Palestine. Sunni and Shiites, The Middle East prophecies are starting and Muslims reign over the Middle East. So why wouldn't we see Islam as violent?

Answer 3

Thats what i always ask them.....this is clear fact that in general its only muslims that try to follow their religion as much as possible and so if islam preaches terrorism....there are over one Billion Muslims over the world so even 100,000 start killing others what will be the Map of world??? the people who are engage in terrorism are very very few and they have political motives behind not religious.....they however use the emotions of an ordinary innocent person to play their cards......

Answer 4

True, not all Muslims are terrorists but, in the last 25 years, 98% of terrorists are Muslim.
Also, when peaceful Muslims don't speak out when schoolchildren are shot in the back as they are trying to run away, it makes observers think that that kind of behavior is sanctioned.

Answer 5

Yes Ma'am good question I respect your point of view.. What is shining with brightness, always on surveillance And Muslims Good people so that's reason, So on the hatred minded people cares about seeds of hate planting,, ( terrorism Do you think that word ( terrorism ) belongs to Muslims or Islam No Ma'am, When people talk about Osama or Muqtada, this is no way the Islamic scholar, professor or Mufti, These are political crap created by hatred minded people agencies for their missions to serve, They turned this lie to truth. They're distributor of pain, They are talking language of the mad About Islam And Muslims. theres a devil laying by their side, No way of showing their gratitude. The pressure upon Muslim Leaders is so real, No worries its just the test of time its not a time for war its a time for peace. So let's cherish these moments that we now know, list could go on and on but unfortunately this forum limited the length,

Answer 6

That's an interesting question, some people will say its the biased media showing only the Muslims that dance in the street and shooting there guns off in the air in praise of the latest terrorist attack. I however, tend to equate Muslims with violence when I watch cartoons directed at Muslim children praising boys close to there own age that martyred themselves by blowing up there dumb asses and killing several enemies in the process. When Muslims raise their children to believe that and then they spend every waking moment trying there damnedest to fulfill their lifelong ambition of dying in jihad, it kind of proves the point. After all, does the Koran not praise the loyal Muslim who slays an enemy of the faith?

Answer 7

PEople socialize Muslims with violence because they are portrayed as Violent people on t.v. (in the movies, on the news, in the news paper). Violence sells. Also, the world is fascinated with negativity. The media makes money and their ratings go up. Just about all ethinic groups and non-chritistan groups are portrayed in a negattive way except for caucassians and christians. If you dont believe me watch the media and ask Chris Rock.

Answer 8

No, not all Muslims are terrorists.

But, right now all the basis of major conflicts, is surrounded by Muslims. Look at the Sudan, look at Malaysia, Muslims are killing people because they are not Muslim.

It must be very frustrating for all the Muslims who don't subscribe to this type of mentality but, they still must face the facts regardless, of how distasteful these facts are.

Answer 9

Because there are factions that do and if one day they came to your area and incited the local Islamics the friendships would end. That's the way it always works.

You won't find it that way in MAJORITY cultural countries. Take parts of India for example. Take the case of Kasmir, Thailand, Lebanon, Tibet.

That is where fighting breaks out all the time.

In a place where there are minority religions you won't see that that much.

Answer 10

Sorry sweetie, we are all still very sore from 9/11.

There will be many acts of terrorism this very day. How many of those will be perpetrated by Muslims? Does that answer your question.

Any religion that claims to be the only way to God is a lie.
