Ok, honestly, Islam has brought Muslims so much poverty, war, and oppression, its unbelievable. Many will probably argue that this isnt "the true islam", but many of the horrible things that take place in these countries ARE legislated by Islam, the Quran actually states everything the moderate muslims consider "not true islam". Like stoning, killing apostates, wife beating, the draconian rules on the veil, limb amputations, lashings and such...Its all in the Quran. Does anybody else ever think to themselves that Muslims are the biggest victims of Islam?

Quran 8:12 “I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. therefore strike off their heads and strike off every
Quran 33:61 “cursed: wherever they are found they shall be seized and murdered, a horrible murdering.”
Quran 9:5 “But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, an seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war)
Quran 2:216 "Fighting is prescribed for you (muslims), and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth, and ye know not."
Quran 61.4 Truly Allah loves those who fight in His Cause in battle array, as if they were a solid cemented structure.

Kill Disbelievers in a cruel fashion:
Sura 5:33: "Those who make war with Allah and his messenger will be killed or crucified, or have their hands and feet on alternate sides cut off, or will be expelled out of the land. That is how they will be treated in this world, and in the next they will have an awful doom."
Slit throats of unbelievers:
Sura 47:4: Therefore, when ye meet the Unbelievers (in fight), smite at their necks; At length, when ye have thoroughly subdued them, bind a bond firmly (on them): thereafter (is the time for) either generosity or ransom: Until the war lays down its burdens. Thus (are ye commanded): but if it had been Allah's Will, He could certainly have exacted retribution from them (Himself); but (He lets you fight) in order to test you, some with others. But those who are slain in the Way of Allah,- He will never let their deeds be lost.

Amputation for petty theft:
Sura 5:38: Cut off the hands of thieves, whether they are male or female, as punishment for what they have done—a deterrent from God: God is almighty and wise.
Dont be friends with Jews or Christians:
Sura 5:51: O ye who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians for your allies and protectors: They are but allies and protectors to each other. And he amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them. Verily Allah guideth not a people unjust.
Permission for a muslim man to beat his wife if she doesnt obey him:
Sura 4:34: Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and (as to) those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in their sleeping places and **beat them**; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High,Great

The sad truth is that the Quran does teach things like wife beating, killing infidels, severing limbs, stoning, etc...

Thanks for the joke.
Religion is not to be blamed. It is the people who misinterpret it.
No, I am not a victim. Do not worry.

I suggest that you learn more about Islam. Wife beatings happens all over the world. (A lot of it due to liquor and alcohol consumption. Did you know that Muslims don't believe in drinking? That's why it is argued that Saddam Hussein was not a real Muslim.)
Pakistan, for example, has a 97% Muslim population. Their aids rate is actually 0.01% (Less than America OR Canada.)
The Bible also mentions things about stoning and lashings, and cruel punishments, not to mention there is a line (or 2) about defending your faith in a brutal manner.
I used to judge religions like you too, but seriously, It's time to actually READ the Qu'ran or READ about Muslim countries. Or maybe, actually go to one yourself, because I can easily contradict all the evidence which you have presented in your argument.
PS. Islam, Christianity, and Judaism are the 3 monotheistic religions- meaning they believe in one god and one god only. They're the most alike faiths in the world, but now, many people don't know this.

i believe they are. But u can see more and more muslims who dont actually really follow their religion 100 %. Alot of ppl are really westernized in asia and if u go there u dont see alot of muslim women wearing hijabs or praying 5 times a day. I think muslims from india and pakistan have more respect for ppl of other religions and respect everyone. but there are other places such as iraq, iran where they are still living in the 20th century. I think yes muslims are the biggest victims of islam and i also think that alot of them know this, so u can see they are not that religous depending on where u live. in another 50 yrs time i think the world could be a better place.

You forget that much of the troubles of Muslim countries originated during the time of the Crusades & a bit later when Ghenghis Khan annihilated the entire eastern Islamic Caliphate & razed half of the cities in the Middle East.

OH BOY...it isn't legistlated by Islam...just individuals who call themselves Muslims...i mean the terrorist...and ISLAM WAIT EXCUSE ME, THE QURAAN DOES NOT GIVE PERMISSION FOR "WIFE BEATING" you make it sound like we get beatings to a bloody pulp...no we get love taps literally...and a lot of what the Quraan talks of is from the time of our Prophet Mohammed PBUH it's like the old testiment of the Bible...there are things in it that people know no longer apply to them...but would have had they been born to the old testiment times...look, what i am trying to say...since your not Muslim, let us be. i am Muslim woman, if Islam was a much of a monster as you and other trolls make it sound, than i don't think there would be as many Muslims today as there are...did you know that Islam is the second largest religion OF THE WORLD...hummm, it isn't that bad. especially because more and more people are converting ON THEIR OWN FREE WILL...let us be already

Ok, so you really dont have an education, andyou dont want one either! Listen Islam is what brought the idea of the purity of women to the west, where they were treating them like filth!!!!!! Second, islam does not make women wear a hijab to hurt them but to protect them in front of men who arn't their husbands, because if this happens, men will try to urt them, so it sounds reasonable she reveals herself in front of her husband only!!!!!
And when it says to destroy the nonbelievers, it does not mean cchristians, or jews, because they too are believers, but it speaks of Idol worshippers, and last I checked, christianity andjudism also prevents idol worshipping. And you cant judge 7 billion muslims around the world because of 100-200 bad apples!!!!! And tell me why islam grows faster than christiantity?!?!?!?!?! And whjy does islam believe in all the prophets, and respects them all, whil;e others, decide to choose which religion is their favorite, when all of them preached the same thing THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD, HE IS OUR CREATOR, AND WE MUST WORSHIP HIM!!!!!!!!! Alllah is simply the arabis word for god, and Allahuakbar means GOD IS GREAT!!! Jihad simply means to struggle in every asdpect of life!!!!!!!! wwhy cant you understand this.
now about the jews, we do not hate THEM OR THEIR RELIGION BUT WE DO HATE THE ZIONISTS!!!!! Now tell, what owould you say of some native americans came charging into your home yelling get out because this was our land 200 years ago!!!! What would you say to that? You'd say they're crazy right? Well thats what the so called jewsor sionists, who arn't real jews, did when they came and told the palestinian muslima and christians alike, Get out because this was our home 3000 years ago!!!!!! Now lets think for a moment.... *ding* I hear all of you saying that the terrorists are barbaric for cutting people's heads off!! well not as barbaric as the slow deaths christians are handing out in america when someone gives murder!! They actually have to decide wethe or not to give him a fast death!!! While islam demands that no matter what a criminal does, they are given a fast death so not to feel any pain, and the fastes way is head cutting, while jails in america electrify, and inject with piosen, andI'm not sure if you know, but I myself am an american, born there and speak better english than most other americans!!!!! Now tell me, why is it okay for amerioca to give nuclear weapons to israel, and not okay for Iran to lebanon? well this just proves that bush is a dimwit, and I'm voting for hilary clinton, or Obama!!!! And wehn the quran talks of torturing the nonbelievers, they mean in hel, and don't you dimwits tell me that ghell is a place of daisys!!
now about the whole animals related thing, when a muslim spaughters and animal for food, it must be done away from other animals so they dont get scared and it must be quick, while cheristians these days do it slowly and painfully through choking and electrifying, we once accidentally bought a duck from jungle jim and saw itt wa choked because it was blue around the neck, so we didn't eat it, we didn't throw it away though, we gave it to a soup kitchen.
Now if islam is so aweful, why is it thwe fastes growing religion in the world, especially in the U.S, where bush lied to the muslims telling them he would help them during his campaign, but when he went to office, he turned traitor!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
\
Now about jesus in islam, yes we do believe his mother was a virgin, he was her son and he will return!!!!! Islam says this will be a great day for alll!!!!!!! Jesus is Highly revered in islam!!!!
He is although not believed to have been crucified, instead when a close friend lied to him about convertingm, god turned that man to be a likeness of jesus and that man was crucified insteadm, while the real jesus was lifted to heaven to await his return to earcth!!!!!!!!!

why do you people look at the bad/negative picture about the "Muslim/Arab" world!
why do you always judge us by what others say or do!
we're all humans.. we dont differ, i speak ur language, i visited ur country, i have many american(other nationalities)"christians/muslims Friends..
WE'RE ALL THE SAME.
and by the way, for just answering your question.. I am a proud Arabic Muslim Girl, I also wear a veil(with no restrictions as u all think) and ya i'm proud of it...

Are they the biggest victims of Islam? Yes, but not for the reasons you mentioned. Poverty, war, oppression, cancer, AIDS, leprosy, venereal diseases, amputations, migraines, lashings, wife beatings, divorce, child abuse, rape, molestation, abortion...... (the list does not end)... These are all bad things that happen to alot of people.
THE bad thing that Islam does to Muslims is that it leads them away from Christ, and on to hell. Islam only does that to Muslims, so Muslims are the biggest victims of Islam.
