Bukhari:V4B52N53 "The Prophet said, ‘Nobody who dies and finds Paradise would wish to come back to this life even if he were given the whole world and whatever is in it, except the martyr who, on seeing the superiority of martyrdom, would like to come back to get killed again in Allah's Cause.'"
Bukhari:V4B52N80 "Muhammad said, ‘Allah welcomes two men with a smile; one of whom kills the other and both of them enter Paradise. One fights in Allah's Cause and gets killed. Later on Allah forgives the killer who also gets martyred in Allah's Cause.'"

Bukhari:V4B52N72 "The Prophet said, ‘Nobody who enters Paradise likes to go back to the world even if he got everything on the earth, except a Mujahid [Islamic fighter] who wishes to return so that he may be martyred ten times because of the dignity he receives.' Our Prophet told us about the message of Allah: ‘Whoever among us is killed will go to Paradise.' Umar asked the Prophet, ‘Is it not true that our men who are killed will go to Paradise and those of the Pagan's will go to Hell?' The Prophet said, ‘Yes.'"

The martyrdom discussed is NOT selfdefense, or defense of any sort; its actively seeking war with those who refuse to convert to Islam!

Qur'an:33:22 "The Believers said: ‘This is what Allah and his Messenger promised us.' It added to their faith, obedience, and submission. Among the Believers are men who have been true to their covenant with Allah and have gone out for Jihad (holy fighting). Some have completed their vow to extreme (and have been martyred) fighting and dying in His Cause, and some are waiting, prepared for death in battle."

It is a great shame that such violence is met with worshipful fervor.
The Christian message is to love our enemies, that he who kills with the sword shall die by it, that our weapons are non-fleshly spiritual to overturn long entrenched erroneous dogma.
The emphasis is on faith and love, and works of peace and that of teaching these beautiful principles to the world.
The fact that so-called Christians have disobeyed this does not nullify the commandment; it only nullifies the salvation of the disobedient.

i think of the only circumstances the place it relatively is ethical to kill is in reaction to the unethical strikes of somebody else the place somebody has to die and you're making the alternative that it may be that guy or woman who made the preliminary unethical selection. For an uncomplicated occasion, somebody makes an unethical selection to kill somebody else who has performed no longer something to them. in this occasion it relatively is ethical to evade this from occurring and eliminate the prospect from society by making use of rehabilitation or by making use of imprisonment if it relatively is the only way. many times it relatively is oftentimes saved faraway from killing the wrongdoer yet each and every now and then killing them in a conflict could be the only selection. To fail to try this means that the sufferer and constructive you your self to boot would be killed and the prospect will stay at large. of direction, there are different circumstances (even regardless of the undeniable fact that i've got purely heard those hypothetically so it in all probability isn't a large number of a real looking concern) the place you need to come to a call no remember if to actively kill some to maintain many yet i won't be able to yet supply an answer to this.

Yes it is greatest honor to die as Martyr in Islam for the cause of Allah. Prophets and Messengers of God and Martyrs are enterd straight in Jannah Paradise soon after they die. Which means there is no waiting period till the end of world like for all all othe people.
Status in the eyes of Allah
Prophes/Messenges are # 1
Maryrs are #2
Scholars of Islam #3
For Martyrs Allah says, " do not say they are dead". They are alive because the minute they die, their souls are taken straight to Paradise and they are living there alive.

You seem very skilled at quoting from the Hadith. What is your point? None of these quotations support extremism or terrorism. What is being discussed is martyrdom? Do you know what a martyr is? In any faith it is someone who gives up their life rather than renounce their faith. Often this happens under conditions of oppression, as was the case with the Christians and the Roman Empire. It is a long held belief that martyrs go to Heaven for their sacrifice and their witness to the truth they believe in. To seek martyrdom, in and of itself, is not wrong nor is it evil.
Those who commit brazen acts of murder in the name of religion are not martyrs. They are murderers and will be dealt with according to Divine Justice.
I will make one last comment here, it is in very poor taste to try to use the scriptures of another's faith to belittle, blaspheme, or denigrate that faith. Islam is an honourable religion. Perhaps instead of looking up obscure quotations you might visit a mosque and speak to an Imam about the faith. If you don't know any muslims, what right do you have to judge them or comment on their beliefs and practices.

RIGHT ON VAJRABOY!!!
There is a difference between killing someone who wishes to kill you or to destroy what is near and dear to you, and murdering someone.
Would I kill a guy who had the power to destroy democracy and religious freedom? You betcha--like stepping on a cockroach. Would I kill a foreigner just because I disagree with his government or religion? No way.
There is a difference between getting killed for a cause that is more important than your own life, and committing suicide to get to heaven. The Koran specifically forbids suicide.
I guess fundamentalist Muslims care about what the Koran really says about as much as fundamentalist Christians care about what the Bible really says. The problem is not religion, the problem is fanaticism and its evil twin--fundamentalism.
I'm Christian myself, by the way. I simply believe that God does not want me to His parrot.

Actually, when a Muslim person kills another person because of their religion, it's the other person who becomes the martyr. What use is a virgin in the spirit world? Are you going to have imaginary sex with them?

Yeah, they are but lots of situations depend on that.
if you have a full family or at least one person depending on you, and u die for allah in the war where lots of other ppl could have done what u r doing; then u might gain SAWAB but think of the ppl u left there. now u r dead, and u left them to die too. that's not a wise thing to do. being killed for allah is a wonderful thing, but u have to see that situation really needs u to do that, even if it dsn't, but u have to look for other circumstances. and one more thing, just running into ppl of other religions and infidels and blasting suicide bomb and saying u did for allah, is the most stupid thing to do. allah never said to kill innocent ppl, those ppl who r creating problems to livings of muslims or even other ppl, and when the only way of self-defense is killing them, only then it is allowed to kill them. but the F UCKing (i'm sorry to say the word, but they really are) terrorists invented their own hadith and commandments and they misinterpret the meanings of quran. LIFE is a gift from Allah. Whoever owns it, you've no right to snatch it away except when someone is trying to kill u or other innocent ppl. infidels, ppl from other religions, no muslim has the right to kill them, regardless of their religion.
but if i'm killing someone who's aggresively announced his rabel agains islam with weapons or trying to kill muslims, OR if i see sacrificing my life will cause a great success for islam, or my country or for something that Allah advises( ofcourse not through those terrorists bomb attacks), it's one of the bests to do
