If Muslims are all terrorists as claimed by most, then why havent the 1.3 billion of them attacked us?

Question

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam

Answer 1

Because nothing in Islam said to attack people in their homes. And those who do, either they abuse Quran teaching or just want to achieve political agendas.
Just have a look on the following verses from Quran:

[Quran 60:8] GOD does not enjoin you from befriending those who do not fight you because of religion, and do not evict you from your homes. You may befriend them and be equitable towards them. GOD loves the equitable.

[Quran 5:87] ... and do not aggress; GOD dislikes the aggressors.

[Quran: 7:199] ......You shall resort to pardon, advocate tolerance, and disregard the ignorant.

[Quran 6:151] "...... You shall not kill - GOD has made life sacred - except in the course of justice. These are His commandments to you, that you may understand."

[Quran17:33] "You shall not kill any person - for GOD has made life sacred - except in the course of justice. ....."

[Quran 4:90]"...... Therefore, if they leave you alone, refrain from fighting you, and offer you peace, then GOD gives you no excuse to fight them."

Sorry for the long answer, but I just want some people who still believe that Islam calls for terror to have a close look to what Islam teaches its followers.

Peace with all of you!

Answer 2

This question can be answered in simplicity: Islam is a relgion of peace. It does not promote any type of violence, and the people who say so and commit to this violence claiming its "jihad" or in the way of Allah(god) should not even be considered muslims. Islam, derived from the arabic term, salam is defined as "peace". If you read the Quran, you will find not a single verse stating that if someone does not believe then kill them. It also does not contain the term "sword"....seeming some are now saying the prophet Mohammad spread Islam by the sword. People like Saddam hossein and Bin Laden are despised ture islamic communities.

Answer 3

Thank you for stating that fact. People are unaware of the fact that not all Muslims support violence and terrorism. Those terrorists out there are even going against the Quran by doing what they are doing. God knows best. Peace.

Answer 4

Because we are not terrorist..
We are Muslims, who worship One God, Allah and Muhammad is His Messenger.
The media and the people who believe the wrong news are lacking of information.
They only refer to th verse of the Quran "kill all the infidels.."
They don't refer to other verses..

Answer 5

john nice question u have asked will there are very few groups who kill inocent people and they call them self muslims ISLAM does not allow us to kill any one no matter if he is a muslim or non muslim there is a very beautyfull saying from PROPHET MUHAMMED that if some one(muslim)hurts a non muslim then he has hurted me.

Answer 6

Because there is only a small precent of Muslims that go against Islam.....

Answer 7

Technically speaking, this isn't too great of an argument, as the vast majority of them live in poor countries which globalization hasn't reached enough for them to consider attacking someone thousands of miles away a possibility....

You are correct in that someone needs to correct these misconceptions though.

Answer 8

only the ignorant people that don't actually understand islam that say they are all terrorists.

Answer 9

Because people who believe this are wrong.

Answer 10

If islam attacks, then the rest of the world can defend and attack muslim countries. Result would be that a war will break out and islam and the world will be in trouble.
