Who hijacked Islam?

Question

Does this tell you anything you didn't know before? Terrorism is not Islamic. I don't care what those who anti Islam say, because the verses they quote are taken out of context. No muslim will listen to that because they know for sure that those verses are taken as part of a situation, and not a command to do away with anyone not muslim. Even some non muslims have looked into it and can see that. What do you think of this?

This is not in defense of terrorists, for I am against them as are so many other muslims. Most muslims just want to live their lives in peace and raise their families to be productive and successful members of society. Those who are doing all of this extremism are not muslims, and the mullahs who are supposed to be experts are fake, because they are ignoring the verses that go against what they are pushing unknowing males to do.

Answer 1

What you say is 100% correct. I am a Muslim & I am against killing innocent people. I am totally against terrorism which in no way relates to Islam. These are people seeking to ruin the reputation of the religion of peace. Do you think the word 'Islam' is just a name, it means peace & that's exactly what it orders its followers to do. The main objective of Islam is to unite & spread peace everywhere.

Answer 2

The terrorists are Muslims, followers of Islam. Extremists but Muslims still the same. Islam, the Qur'an, Muhammad teaches that the world will be an Islamic world. By any and all means. Non-Muslims are to convert or die. Period. The Terrorists are trying to make that happen.

Answer 3

Islam is peace
terrorists are not muslims they're against islam

Answer 4

Ok, before you go on the defense of modern Islam, ask yourself this one important question, why are there more Zoroastrians living in India vs Iran (once Persia), the land of its origin?

You see, Islam is very much a political and/or clerical type of system much like Christianity before the reformation. Until a major change occurs, Islam will always be associated with intolerance and terrorism.

Answer 5

No one, its totally impossible Islam don't belong to us, if you can lay claim to anyone which its impossible for the outcome of Islamic fundamentalist then you can blame those in greed.

but they are not our brothers, or sisters. they are of the extreme left and have no place in the heavens of Allah SWT without his mercy and Muhammed SAW to remove them from the fire.. cause that is exactly the direction they are heading into .. that is not my words.. those are Allah SWT words in the Quran.

Those who create mischief in the land.. check that string out.. Allah is pointing right at them... so called Muslims which are of the biggest Keefer in the land and on the face of the earth today.. anyone that is religious I posted it, and 99% said yes anyone religous would never do such things... and 1% blamed Islam..... those who blame Islam are the ones that are to blame.... Salam

Answer 6

Why aren't the peaceful, moderate Muslims organising mass demonstrations and protests condemning the terrorists and fake Mullahs?

Why don't your leading teachers and theologists debate them and show them in the Qu'ran where it speaks against what they are doing?

That's what we in the West do when we disagree with our Government or Religious leaders!

Answer 7

If Islam was a peace-loving religion and the Koran was perfectly divine in origin, it would not contain passages like these:

[4.89] They desire that you should disbelieve as they have disbelieved, so that you might be (all) alike; therefore take not from among them friends until they fly (their homes) in Allah's way; but if they turn back, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them, and take not from among them a friend or a helper.

[8.39] And fight with them until there is no more persecution and religion should be only for Allah; but if they desist, then surely Allah sees what they do.

[9.29] Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book, until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection.

[9.123] O you who believe! fight those of the unbelievers who are near to you and let them find in you hardness; and know that Allah is with those who guard (against evil).

These ARE commands "to do away with anyone not muslim."

Stop lying. You do it here all the time. Any God worth worshiping would not approve of your deceitful behavior.

Answer 8

I believe terrorist are just cult members.
Sadly someone has used their original faith against them.

This is another reason I dislike religion, too many ppl looking to be lead and getting in over their heads.

Answer 9

When a person who's been on the receiving end of being spat upon, cursed at and refused the same social (and career) liberties as other people based on their religion they have a right to complain. They would be being a hypocrite only if they themselves are encouraging the same behaviour towards other people from other Muslims or engage in it themselves. If they're not then they're not being a hypocrite. Many Muslims do condemn the actions of the radicals but unfortunately there are also many non Muslims who would refuse to acknowledge that their own prejudices against Muslims do not apply to this individual. I'm not saying there are no Muslim hypocrites. There's plenty, but you can't paint every person you meet who is a Muslim as such. Not one of the three Muslims I work with condones the actions and rules of the extremists from their home countries (Iraq and Turkey). The one from Iraq doesn't feel that America has done the best job in their war in Iraq but he harbours no negative feelings towards any Americans that he meets.

Answer 10

You have obviously not read any world history books. Islam started with the sword.
