Islam and Christians

In the name of Allah, the all Merciful, the Most Merciful

Christians claim to follow Jesus son of Mary -sur Peace- him he is innocent of their evil deeds. In reality, they are outside (below) the teachings of Jesus -sur him Peace-. They love the cross they create with their hands !! They falsified their religion: they allowed the drink wine, the feeding of swine's flesh, they banned the brevity of their children !! And they love the images carved on the walls of their churches! They do their loved trinity saying the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit (the angel Gabriel). A scientist said, Christians do not count because they make a three and a three !! (explanation: Christians believe that their loved consists of three, but in reality it is one, and this one is three !!!) 

How do they spread their religion falsified? 

Christians do not spread their religion tampered with evidence or demonstrations, but taking advantage of: 1 poverty. 2 ignorance. 3 doubts people with whom they proliferate their ideas. 

Why do they do this? They do it because their religion is not based on evidence and demonstrations truthful, religion does not change with time and place, this is what makes many Christians in Europe and elsewhere are moving away from this religion until there churches became deserted and are frequented by a few old men ... what drove people to the church sale !! 

     The prophet Jesus -sur him salvation and Peace- ordered his people to follow the prophet Mohamed -sur him salvation and Peace- upon the occurrence thereof; God, the Most High, says in the Qur'an: "And when Jesus son of Mary said: O Children of Israel; I am the Messenger of Allah [sent] to you, verifying that which, in the Torah, is before me, and tidings of a messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmed. But when he came to them with Clear Signs, they said, this is mere magic "[Surah Rank (Assaf) / 7.]. 

And most surprising of this is that the meaning of this verse is found in the books of Christians with many other signs of the prophet Mohamed -sur him salvation and Peace- and are also found in their holy books and in the Pentateuch, which is in the hands of Jews far !! 

In addition, people of bad faith hid these signs, or they have explained in a way that they do not apply to the Prophet Ahmed Mohamed on him salvation and peace, and this envy and jealousy because it always grows to hate Islam to mock, make fun of Muslims, the Koran, the Prophet Muhammad and worship of Islam such as prayer, fasting, pilgrimage to the Holy Qaaba etc. 

These people spread their bad ideas and their misdeeds in the press (such as newspapers, magazines and radio stations of different languages ​​such as Monte Carlo)! 

While the student of history, can see what had been done to these hate Muslims during the Crusades, and what they do at present in several Muslim countries (such as Iraq and Palestine ... etc.) , massacring with the Jews, this is a proof among many others of their hatred towards Islam and Muslims. 

Our duty to be suspicious of their reasons: 

NB: the evils of Christians are generally intrigued by their intellectual class specializing in history and theology, not from other simple followers, because they are simply applying these strategies schemed; it is necessary that Muslims warn of their misdeeds, which have several means, one of the most disturbing is that of education. 

As it happened in our Islamic country, where a Christian teacher in a high school, issued a tale for its Muslim students, which is mockery of the pilgrimage to Mecca. In this tale the pilgrim is described as an evil individual. And although this story from the pen of an Algerian as claimed by the Christian teacher, relieves a good idea is that the pilgrimage does not change some of their lives (though it is permitted to to criticize a religion of Islam, even when the goal is laudable. Whoever wants to straighten some bad acts can do if it has jurisdiction, provided it does not let us hear it mocks the Islam, as the error of a Muslim is attributed to him and not to Islam). But the opportunity seized by the professor in the dissemination of this tale was the purpose of the pilgrimage that laughter is one of the pillars of Islam. As proof, he told his students that the turban wound on the head of the pilgrim is a "33 rpm"! 

But why this teacher he chose this particular tale, even assuming that his goal was honest? Would not it be more useful to learn to our students the means of scientific progress since he comes from a developed country? 

But God, the Most High, said: "They want to extinguish the light of their mouths of Allah, but Allah will perfect His light, though the unbelievers hate it." [Surah Rank (Assaf) / 8. ]

Islam overtaking Catholicism as the dominant religion in France

A majority of people in France, according to a new poll, believe that Islam is too influential in French society, and nearly half of Muslims view as a threat to their national identity.
The survey reveals a significant degradation of the image of Islam in France. The results also show that French voters are increasingly uneasy about mass immigration from Muslim countries, which has been encouraged by a generation of political and cultural elites in France dedicated to the creation of a multicultural society.
The investigation conducted by the French Institute of Public Opinion (or Ifop, as it is called) and published by the center-right Le Figaro on October 24, shows that 60% of French believe that Islam has become "too visible and influence "in France - against 55% in a previous survey two years ago.
The survey also found that 43% of French consider the presence of Muslim immigrants as a threat to French national identity, against only 17% who say it enriches society.
In addition, 68% of people in France blame the problems associated with the integration of Muslim immigrants to refuse to integrate (against 61% two years ago), and 52% blame on cultural differences (40% against two years ago).
The survey also shows a growing resistance to the symbols of Islam. Nearly two-thirds (63%) of French say they are opposed to Muslim women wearing the veil or headscarf in public, compared to 59% two years ago.
In addition, the survey shows that only 18% of French people are in favor of building new mosques in France (against 33% in 1989 and 20% in 2010).
"Our survey shows a further tightening in the views of the French," Jerome Fourquet, director of opinion Ifop department, said Le Figaro. "In recent years, there has not been a week that Islam was not the heart of the news for social reasons: the veil, halal food, dramatic news like terrorist attacks or geopolitical reasons , "he said.
France, which had about six million Muslims, has the largest Muslim population in the European Union. There are now, in fact, more practicing Muslims in France as there are Catholic practice. 

Although 64% of the French population (or 41.6 million of 65 million inhabitants of France) identify themselves as Catholic, only 4.5% (€ 1.9 million) of these Catholics are actually practitioners, according to a separate survey on Catholicism in France published by Ifop in July 2009.
By comparison, 75% (or 4.5 million euros), the sub-Saharan estimated six million mostly ethnic North African Muslims in France identify themselves as "believers" and 41% (or 2.5 million) say they are "practicing" Muslims, according to a report in-depth research on Islam in France published by Ifop in July 2011.
Overall, the research data provides empirical evidence that Islam is well on the way to overtaking Roman Catholicism as the dominant religion in France.
This trend is also reflected in the fact that mosques are built mostly in France that are Roman Catholic churches; nearly 150 new mosques are currently under construction in France.
The total number of mosques in France has already doubled to more than 2,000 during just the past decade, according to a research report "Constructing Mosques: The Governance of Islam in France and the Netherlands." The rector of the Great Mosque of Paris, Dalil Boubakeur, called for the number of mosques in the country to be doubled again - to 4,000 - to meet growing demand.
However, the Roman Catholic Church has built only 20 new churches in France during the last decade, and has formally closed more than 60 churches, many of which are destined to become mosques, according to research conducted by La Croix, a Catholic daily newspaper based in Paris.
In recent weeks, tensions have erupted over the proposed conversion of an empty church into a mosque in the central French town of Vierzon. The controversy relates to Saint-Eloi, a small church located in an area of the working class that has been taken over by immigrants from Morocco and Turkey.
With six churches to maintain and less faithful each year, the Catholic authorities in Vierzon say they can no longer afford to keep Saint-Eloi. Now they want to sell the building for € 170,000 ($ 220,000) to a Moroccan Muslim organization that wants to convert the church into a mosque.
In an interview with the French weekly Le Nouvel Observateur, Alain Krauth, parish priest of the largest Catholic church in Vierzon, said: "The Christian community is not as important as it was in the past If moderate Muslims buy Saint. -Eloi Of, we can rejoice that the Muslims of Vierzon are able to celebrate their religion. "His comments were met with outrage by local citizens who are now trying to prevent the church to become a mosque.
Similar scenes are played out across France.
In the nearby town of Poitiers, about 70 members of a youth group known as the Conservative Generation identity name has recently occupied a mosque being built in the district of Buxerolles heavily Muslim town. The dawn raid of October 21 was designed as a protest against the growing influence of Islam in France.
The protesters climbed onto the roof of the mosque (photos here) and displayed a banner with the symbolic expression "732 Generation Identity" in reference to the year 732, when Charles Martel halted the advance of the army Muslim invasion north of Poitiers (also known as the Battle of Tours.)
Meanwhile, the socialist government in France has recently opened a new mega-mosque in Paris as a first step towards "progressive construction of a French Islam."
The new mosque, located in the north of Paris, in the suburb of Cergy-Pontoise, is not only vast in its dimensions (pictures here), but it is also very visible and symbolic minaret, which was deliberately designed to change the horizon of the suburbs being bigger than any church steeple in the neighborhood, which is supposed to become the "new symbol of Islam in France."
Speaking on behalf of French President Francois Hollande during the opening ceremony of the mosque in Cergy, French Interior Minister Manuel Valls revolves Socialist government policy vis-à-vis the construction of new mosques in France. He said: "A mosque when it was erected in the city, says a simple thing :. Islam has its place in France "

Reply to: why polygamy is allowed in Islam ?

Question: 

Why is a man allowed to have more than one wife in Islam? d ie. why polygamy is allowed in Islam 

answer: 

Definition of Polygamie 

1 Polygamy means a system of marriage whereby one person has more than one spouse. Polygamy can be of two types. One is polygyny where a man marries more than one wife and the other is polyandry, where a woman marries more than one man. In Islam, limited polygyny is permitted; whereas polyandry is completely prohibited. 

Now coming to the original question, why do we allow a man to have more than one wife? 

2 The Qur'an is the only religious sacred Scripture in the world that says, "marry you with ONE" 

The Qur'an is the only religious book on the face of this earth, that contains the phrase? May marry only with you. There is no religious book that instructs men to have only one wife. In any scripture of any religion, the Vedas, the Ramayan, Mahabharat on the Geeta, the Talmud or the Bible in fact we think we can get married as much as you want. It was only recently that the Hindu priests and the Christian Church had restricted women to a. 

Many religious Hindu the personalities, according their Saintes scriptures, had multiple women. Dashrat king, the father of Rama, had more than one wife. Krishna had several wives. 

In early times, Christians we allowed men as many women they have desired, since the Bible puts no restriction on the number of women. It was only a few centuries ago that the Church restricted the number of women in one. 

Polygamy is permitted in Judaism. According to Talmudic law, Abraham had three wives, and Solomon had hundreds of women. The practice of polygamy continued till Rabbi Gershom ben Yehudah issued an edict against it. The Jewish Sephardic communities living in Muslim countries continued the practice until 1950 already, to an act of the Chief Rabbinate of Israel extended the ban on marrying more than one wife. 

3. The Hindus are more of polygamous that Muslims 

The report of 'Switched Statute of Women in Islam', published in 1975 mentions page numbers 66 and 67 that the percentage of polygamous marriages between the years 1951 and 1961 was 5.06% among the Hindus and only 4.31% among Muslims. According the Indian law only the Muslims men are allowed to have more than a woman. It is illegal for any non-Muslim in India to have more than one wife. Despite it being illegal, Hindus have more multiple wives as compared to Muslims. Earlier there were no restriction even Hindu men regarding the permitted number of women. It was only in 1954, when the Hindu Marriage Act was passed that it became illegal for a Hindu to have more than one wife. At present it is the Indian Law that restricts a Hindu man from having more than one wife and not the Hindu scriptures 

Let us now analyze why Islam allows a man to have more than one wife. 

4 Qur'an permits limited polygyny 

As above-mentioned, the Qur'an is the only religious book on the face of the earth that says may marry with ONE "this phrase is the following verse from Surah Nisa of the holy Qur'an?: 

"And if you fear not act equitably towards orphans, ... It is permissible to marry two, three or four among the women of your choice, but if you fear that you will not do justice those -C, then one,. "

[Al-Qur'an 4: 3] 

Before the Qur'an was revealed, there was no upper limit for polygyny and many men had many wives, some even hundreds. Islam put an upper limit of four wives. Islam gives a man permission to marry two, three or four women, only on condition that he deals justly 

In the same chapter that is to say. Surah Nisa verse 129 says: 

"You can never be justice between wives, even if you're concerned ....". [Al-Qur'an 4: 129] 

So polygamy is not A RULE, but an exception. Many people are under the misconception that it is obligatory for the Muslim woman to have more than a man. 

Generally, Islam has five categories of do and do not do: 

'Fard that is to say mandatory 

'Mustahab' ie recommended or encouraged say 

'Mubah' that is to say, allowed 

'Makruh' that is to say, not recommended or discouraged 

'Haraam' that is to-say prohibits or defended 

Polygamy falls middle of category of things that are permitted. We can not say that a Muslim who has two, three or four wives is a better Muslim as compared to a Muslim who has only one wife. 

5 The average life span of females is more than males 

By nature males and females are born at approximately the same ration. A girl has more immunity than a male child. A female child can fight against germs and diseases better than the male child. For this reason, during the pediatric age itself there are more deaths among males compared to females. 

During the wars, there has more men killed like compared to women. More men die due to accidents and diseases than women. The average life span of females is more than that of the male and at any time one finds more widows in the world than widowers. 

6 World female population is more than male population 

In the United States, women surpass men by 7.8 million. New York alone has one million more females as compared to the number of males, and the male population of New York is third gay (gay) ie d. sodomites. L'USA has as a whole more than twenty-five of homosexuals million. This means that these people do not wish to marry women Britain has four million more females as compared to males. Germany has five million more females as compared to males. Russia has nine million more women than males. God alone knows how many million more females there are in the world as compared to males. 

8 Restricting every man to have only one wife is not practical 

Same if every man married a woman, there would always over thirty million of females in USA that would not able to obtain husbands (seen that America has twenty five of homosexuals million). There are more than four million females in Great Britain, 5 million females in Germany and nine million females in Russia alone who would not be able to find a husband. 

In Western society, it is common for a man to have mistresses and / or multiple extra-marital relationship, where the woman leads a disgraceful life without protection. The same society, however, can not accept a man having more than one wife, in which women retain their honorable place, worthy in society and lead a protected life. 

Thus the only two options before a woman who can not find a husband is to marry a married man or to become public property. Islam prefers giving women the honorable position by permitting the first option and reject the second. 

There are several other reasons, why Islam has permitted limited polygyny, but it must above all protect the modesty of women. 

polygamy is not recommended, but it is permitted to say it's not if a Muslim does not have more of a woman so he committed a sin. 

Polygamy is permitted for pure true Muslims and not for anyone, that could damage the company with such a marriage, when he does not give right to their wives, and in many cases children die hungry .. 

Qur'an states that a man is responsible for the maintenance of his wife or wives housing food, clothing ... 

Multiple marriages are a heavy responsibility on the male. It's not a pleasure trip as some may assume. Some even imagine all kinds of sexual exploits involving a man and his wives altogether. However, such activity is not permitted in Islam. A man must divide his time equally among his wives. It can, for example, spend a night with each wife on a rotating schedule. 

If a man can not maintain justice in the treatment of his wives, the Qur'an states that it must not have more than one wife .: 

look at this verse 

Coran4 / 3 

And if you fear that you will not do justice to orphans ... It is permissible to marry two, three or four among the women of your choice, but if you fear that you will not do justice celles- one, then only one or what your rights are acquired. This order not to do injustice (or so as not to aggravate your dependents). 

So it's not an order, yet permission, and no one says that if a Muslim marries only one, then it is sin !! 

was permitted but not prohibited, and permission was well organized, if you fear not being fair with them, then only one that is justice between them. This is confirmed by the following: 

Quran 4 / [129] 

You can never be equitable between your wives, even if you are worried. Do not you angle quite towards one of them, to the point to let the other as if in suspense. But if you make peace and you are pious ... Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful. 

Here we clearly see that Allah tells men that they will never be fair to their wives. 

Let's see why then the Almighty Allah has temporarily recommended polygamy but yet he strongly discouraged! 

What was the purpose of verse 4: 3? 

Verse 4: 3 was said at one time the prophet Muhammad PBUH was in Madina after he emigrated from Mecca and established an Islamic state 

  there long after the battle of Uhud in which the Muslims had not only lost and suffered a dramatic decline in the number of Muslim men. Muslim men before fighting had approximately 700 men. They became only 400 after the battle. This loss has caused so many Muslim women widows and orphans was not able to meet their needs 

To do this issue the Muslims had faced yet another battle against the pagans in Mecca and neighboring tribes who wanted to attack the Muslims in Madina to finish off Islam once and for all, as "Battle of the Ditch" 

These ongoing battles against the Muslims were very costly in terms of lives of Muslim men, ie therefore more orphans and widows. 

For this reason, Allah revealed to the noble 4: 3 Muhammad PBUH on him to solve social problems that Muslims faced. because it is logical and normal we will not let these widows into prostitution to earn their bread and their children ... something else too when Muslims win wars there are prisoners of war-as case saffya - and so we're going to put them into slavery as did the Jews do to the wild or concubines. There is no concubine in Islamic dictionary. 

We see that Allah given high importance for widows and orphans while mentioning orphans before the women to report to the world why this polygamy? 

In conclusion we say that polygamy is not encouraged in the Koran, nor prohibited, rather it is a permission to implement orphans and widows in value. 

These truths were even confirmed by the testimony of non-Muslims: 

John Esposito says 

Although it is found in many religious and cultural traditions, polygamy (or more accurately, polygyny) is most often identified with Islam in the minds of Westerners. In fact, the Qur'an and Islamic law sought to control and regulate the number of spouses rather than give free license. (John Esposito, L'Islam: Le droit chemin, Oxford University, 1988, p 97.). 

Esposito then goes on to explain that in a society that has allowed men an unlimited number of wives, Islam limited the number of wives to four. Then he went on to say: 

The Qur'an allows a man to marry up to four wives if he can support them and treat all equally. Muslims consider this Quranic command as strengthen the status of women and family to him sought to ensure the well-being of women and single widows in a society whose male population has been diminished by the war, and to limit the polygamy without restriction (John Esposito: Islam the right path, p 97.

MOHAMMAD (psbl) IN THE OLD TESTAMENT

He had to come from Saudi with ten thousand saints 

Here is a major prophecy about Muhammad  in the Bible, that of taking 

Mecca ten thousand companions 

"The eternal came from Sinai, he stood up from Seir unto them, he shined forth from mount Paran. And he came with ten thousand saints South [or her right hand] is pulled out a fiery law for them. "[Deuteronomy 33: 2] 

"The eternal came from Sinai, he stood up from Seir unto them, He shone forth from Mount Paran. "

Jewish and Christian tradition that these three locations denote the Sinai, we will see that it means rather: Sinai, Palestine and Arabia. 

Mount Sinai is well experienced, it is where Moses received the tablets of the law, and he heard God. 

Seir is a mountain north of Judah (now Palestine), located near the ancient Beth-Shemesh (Ain Shems today), according to "Smith's Bible Dictionary" and "The KJV Old Testament Hebrew Lexicon". 

Not far from Seir is Bethlehem, birthplace of Jesus, peace be upon him. 

Seir is located in the region where Jesus, peace be upon him, brought the gospel: Palestine. 

Mount Paran remains, what Mount Paran. I need regular. 

Paran. Is located in Arabia, in fact, the Bible refers to the wilderness of Paran. with the story of Hagar and Ishmael, peace be upon him, saying: 

Genesis 21.20 

God was with the lad (Ishmael) grew, and dwelt in the wilderness, and became 

an archer. 

Genesis 21.21 

He lived in the wilderness of Paran., And his mother took him a wife in the country 

Egypt. 

Ishmael, the ancestor of the Arabs thus grew up in the wilderness of Paran. , Which is the Arabian desert. 

The Arab tradition of the time reported that Ishmael and his mother settled in the valley of Mecca (Makkah see described in the Bible). 

In addition, the descendants of Ishmael settled in the same wilderness of Paran, as stated in the Bible: 

Genesis 25.13 

and here are the names of the son of Ishmael, by their names, by their 

generations: The firstborn of Ishmael, Nebaioth; and Kedar, and Adbeel and 

Mibsam, and Mishma and Duma, and Massa, Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish and Kedma. 

Genesis 25:16 

These are the son of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their 

villages and encampments: twelve princes of their tribes. 

These twelve son of Ishmael are the fathers of the Arabs, they gave their names to the villages where they lived and Arabs continued to live in the same wilderness of Paran. The Arabian Desert is Paran. in the Bible, it is the place of fixation of Ishmael and his descendants. 

But it says "Mount Paran. "(Har Paran. Hebrew), the eternal shone Mount Paran. , Ie of a mountain in Arabia. 

This becomes clear, it can not be that of Mount Hera, where Muhammad received the first revelation from the angel Jibril (Gabriel). 

"Passage Eternal came from Sinai, he stood up from Seir unto them, He shone forth from Mount Paran. "Shows three distinct regions Sinai, Palestine and Arabia Mountain (Mount Hira). This is a clear reference to the three prophets Moses, Jesus and Muhammad, peace be upon them all. 

Indeed, divine revelation was first made ​​with Moses at Sinai, and Jesus in Palestine 

And finally Muhammad in Arabia. Ie, the Torah, the Gospel and the Qur'an. 

In addition, there are many times Paran. in the Bible, but only 2 times "Mount Paran. "And these are twice as clear prophecies about the coming of Muhammad.

Which is translated by ten thousand saints is Hebrew רִבְבֹת קֹדֶש 

  rivévot kodesh in some Bibles, rivévot resulted in myriad, myriad men means exactly ten thousand men. 

Furthermore the rvv root is used in many other places in the Bible to count men or things: 

Deuteronomy 32:30 

How should one chase a thousand, And two put ten thousand [Rivava] fleeing 

(see also Deuteronomy 33:17, 1 Samuel 18.7 and 18.8, 1 Samuel 29.5; Leviticus 26.8; Nehemiah 7.66; Ezra 2.64; Genesis 24.60; ...) 

In verse, kodesh means saint, or rather holy man translating rivévot kodesh is ten thousand saints 

Jude 1.14 

This is Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousand saints. 

Jude 1.15 

To execute judgment against all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all acts which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches have spoken against him sinners 

ungodly. 

The Greek word used is μυριασιν murias ", meaning 10,000. 

Murias is the etymology of myriad is the Greek equivalent of the Hebrew révivot. 

Again, we find in the Bible a reference to "ten thousand saints," and there, the author of the book of Jude (authors?) Told us that it is a prophecy of Enoch, who lived thousands of years BC. 

Enoch has announced that ten thousand saints of God would come to exercise judgment against the ungodly, unbelievers. 

If Jude (who lived long after Jesus) quotes this prophecy is that it has not yet been achieved. Neither the time of Enoch, or the time of Moses, or the time of Jude. 

The first to the last book of the Bible, the prophecy of the ten thousand saints remained unanswered, and nobody has done. 

Historically, these prophecies can only applies to Muhammad (pbuh) is the only prophet coming with ten thousand saints companions, when taking of Mecca. 

Are there was another prophet along with ten thousand fellow saints in the wilderness of Paran. I need regular. 

In fact, in many Bible translators have camouflaged "rivévot" and "murias" by myriad, so that means exactly say ten miles in just to confuse the reader, to hide the prophecies of Muhammad (saas) and entry to Mecca, which is a historical event without precedent. 

"The eternal came from Sinai, he stood up from Seir unto them, he shined forth from mount Paran., And he came with ten thousand saints South [or her right hand] is a law went fire for them. "[Deuteronomy 33: 2] 

This prophecy can not be reconciled with Muhammad (pbuh), in fact, no one else came to Paran in Arabia, with ten thousand fellow saints and divine law. 

This prophecy comes to close the Torah, it's chapter 33, the blessings of Moses, just before his death. The last words of one of the greatest prophet of Israel, reported with more or less accuracy in Deuteronomy, so clearly announces the coming of Muhammad (pbuh). 

It is not surprising that an event as important as the liberation of Mecca, is found foretold in the Torah, but also in the Hindu scriptures, for the opening of Mecca marks the beginning of the expansion of the Islam and its still existing coverage.

What is Jihad? According to the Quran

Jihad means struggling in the name of Allah Almighty. Jihad doesn't always mean a war or battle. Any mean for spreading Islam and the Truth, or to fight for what is right and condemn what is wrong (such as fighting the bad and helping the oppressed even if they were not Muslims) are considered Jihad.
I am doing Jihad right now by maintaining my web site, because it is a tool that can be used for spreading Islam and the Truth. And because it is also a Media tool, it could be used for fighting for what is right and condemning what is wrong. 
Islam is not a religion of arms and swords! When Allah Almighty revealed the Noble Quran to Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, and Muhammad became the Messenger of GOD Almighty, Muhammad had to spread Islam to 365 Pagan Arab Tribes. These tribes showed so much hostility toward the Muslims and Islam, and have imposed so many battles against the Muslims. 
Later, when Islam was the religion of what we call today Saudi Arabia, and the 365 Pagan Arab tribes mostly converted to Islam, the Muslims had to yet face another type of challenge. 
The Nuclear Soviet Union and the United States of America of our days were the Great Empires of the Christian Romans and the Pagan Persians. If you know geography and history well enough, then you would see that the Muslims were trapped between those two big Super Powers. 
Hostility and Battles from those two Empires were imposed upon the Muslims. For instance, when our Prophet peace be upon him sent his messenger to "Kisrah", the Emperor of Persia, introducing Islam to him, Kisrah ordered for the Muslims' Messenger to be executed! 
Back then, like today, this was considered a coward act. It was the Persians who showed the hostility toward the Muslims and declared the many battles against Islam. 
The Christian Romans weren't any better. For instance, in one of their many battles against the Muslims is when they saw the threat to their religion in the Middle East, the King "Herucl", sent out an army of 100,000 men and ordered them to go to "Madina" in what we call today Saudi Arabia to destroy Islam once and for all. 
The Muslims were not stable yet at that time, and they only sent out an army of 3,000 men at that time to drive the Christian Romans away from Madina. The battle was named "The battle of Mo'ta" and it took place in Mo'ta, Jordan today. 
The Muslims' plan was to meet the Christian Romans far away from Madina, and to have them stray away from Madina. The army of 3,000 men was successful enough to fight the Christian Romans for few days and then to pull away from the battle and headed South of Jordan. The Romans strayed away from Madina and the small army of the Muslims was able to run away through the mountains. More than half of the 3,000 Muslims however were killed in this operation. 
The point is that Islam didn't spread by sword with much choice. The wars were imposed upon the Muslims. The Muslims didn't ask for those wars. 
Islam is a Religion of Love and Peace and Forgiveness 



2- The reason for "Jihad" Noble Verses:

The so-called "Jihad" Noble Verses came for specific times and places. They don't apply for all times and everybody! I can't slay you, a non-Muslim, just because you're not a Muslim. The pagan Arabs were very hostile people and only knew the sword as an answer. Many wars were imposed upon the Muslims, and thus, it is only normal and natural to find Noble Verses that deal with these specific hostile situations. But the Message of the Noble Quran is PEACE, as clearly proven in Noble Verses 2:190, 8:61 and 5:28 above.


The laws of war in Islam: 
Muslims are forbidden from attacking others who do not attack them:

"Fight in the cause of God those who fight you, but do not transgress limits; for God loveth not transgressors. (The Noble Quran, 2:190)"

Fighting in the cause of GOD Almighty those who fight us is what "Jihad" is all about. I can't go and kill a non-Muslim just because he is a non-Muslim. That is absolutely forbidden in Islam:

"On that account: We ordained for the Children of Israel that if any one slew a person - unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land - it would be as if he slew the whole people: and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people. Then although there came to them Our apostles with clear signs, yet, even after that, many of them continued to commit excesses in the land. (Noble Quran 5:32)"

"Those who invoke not, with God, any other god, nor slay such life as God has made sacred except for just cause, nor commit fornication; - and any that does this (not only) meets punishment. (But) the Penalty on the Day Of Judgement will be doubled To him, and he will dwell Therein in ignominy. (The Noble Quran, 25:68-69)"

Jihad can only be declared when the Muslims are attacked.Muslims are not allowed to attach those who do not attack them. And even when war breaks out, if the enemy offers an honest peace, then we should accept it and end the blood shed:

"But if the enemy incline towards peace, do thou (also) incline towards peace, and trust in God: for He is One that heareth and knoweth (all things). (The Noble Quran, 8:61)"

And if a treaty of peace was made, then we must honor that treaty to the end:

"Except those who join a group between whom and you there is a treaty (of peace), or those who approach you with hearts restraining them from fighting you as well as fighting their own people. If God had pleased, He could have given them power over you, and they would have fought you: Therefore if they withdraw from you but fight you not, and (instead) send you (Guarantees of) peace, then God Hath opened no way for you (to war against them). (The Noble Quran, 4:90)"

"How can there be a league, before God and His Apostle, with the Pagans, except those with whom ye made a treaty near the sacred Mosque? As long as these stand true to you, stand ye true to them: for God doth love the righteous. (The Noble Quran, 9:7)"

The laws of war in Islam: 
Muslims are forbidden from attacking others who do not attack them: 
"Fight in the cause of God those who fight you, but do not transgress limits; for God loveth not transgressors. (The Noble Quran, 2:190)" 
Fighting in the cause of GOD Almighty those who fight us is what "Jihad" is all about. I can't go and kill a non-Muslim just because he is a non-Muslim. That is absolutely forbidden in Islam: 
"On that account: We ordained for the Children of Israel that if any one slew a person - unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land - it would be as if he slew the whole people: and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people. Then although there came to them Our apostles with clear signs, yet, even after that, many of them continued to commit excesses in the land. (Noble Quran 5:32)"
"Those who invoke not, with God, any other god, nor slay such life as God has made sacred except for just cause, nor commit fornication; - and any that does this (not only) meets punishment. (But) the Penalty on the Day Of Judgement will be doubled To him, and he will dwell Therein in ignominy. (The Noble Quran, 25:68-69)" 
Jihad can only be declared when the Muslims are attacked.Muslims are not allowed to attach those who do not attack them. And even when war breaks out, if the enemy offers an honest peace, then we should accept it and end the blood shed: 
"But if the enemy incline towards peace, do thou (also) incline towards peace, and trust in God: for He is One that heareth and knoweth (all things). (The Noble Quran, 8:61)" 
And if a treaty of peace was made, then we must honor that treaty to the end: 
"Except those who join a group between whom and you there is a treaty (of peace), or those who approach you with hearts restraining them from fighting you as well as fighting their own people. If God had pleased, He could have given them power over you, and they would have fought you: Therefore if they withdraw from you but fight you not, and (instead) send you (Guarantees of) peace, then God Hath opened no way for you (to war against them). (The Noble Quran, 4:90)" 
"How can there be a league, before God and His Apostle, with the Pagans, except those with whom ye made a treaty near the sacred Mosque? As long as these stand true to you, stand ye true to them: for God doth love the righteous. (The Noble Quran, 9:7)"
3- The reason for "Jihad" Ahadith:
Muhammad (peace_be_upon_him) never took revenge for his own sake, but for the sake of Allah Almighty and Islam
We must first of all know that when Islam came, it came among 365 Arab Pagan Tribes, and they were all idol worshipers, women abusers and enslavers. Islam came and fought idol worshiping, oppressing women and racism and slavery (which is by the way clearly promoted in the Bible's Old and New Testaments) in many bloody battles that were imposed upon the Muslims without any choice for the Muslims. So, if we hear about few pigs from the Pagans getting killed for the sake of Allah Almighty, it should not raise any red flags in our minds about the validity of Islam and it's tolerance to non-Muslims.
Narrated 'Aisha: "Whenever Allah's Apostle was given the choice of one of two matters, he would choose the easier of the two, as long as it was not sinful to do so, but if it was sinful to do so, he would not approach it. Allah's Apostle never took revenge (over anybody) for his own sake but (he did) only when Allah's Legal Bindings were outraged in which case he would take revenge for Allah's Sake. (Translation of Sahih Bukhari, Virtues and Merits of the Prophet (peace be upon him) and his Companions, Volume 4, Book 56, Number 760)" 
Narrated 'Aisha: "Whenever Allah's Apostle was given the choice of one of two matters he would choose the easier of the two as long as it was not sinful to do so, but if it was sinful, he would not approach it. Allah's Apostle never took revenge over anybody for his own sake but (he did) only when Allah's legal bindings were outraged, in which case he would take revenge for Allah's sake.(Translation of Sahih Bukhari, Good Manners and Form (Al-Adab), Volume 8, Book 73, Number 147)" 
Narrated Aisha: "Whenever the Prophet was given an option between two things, he used to select the easier of the tow as long as it was not sinful; but if it was sinful, he would remain far from it. By Allah, he never took revenge for himself concerning any matter that was presented to him, but when Allah's Limits were transgressed, he would take revenge for Allah's Sake. (Translation of Sahih Bukhari, Limits and Punishments set by Allah (Hudood), Volume 8, Book 81, Number 777)" 
Narrated Jabir bin ‘Abdullah: That he fought in a Ghazwa towards Najd along with Allah's Apostle and when Allah's Apostle returned, he too, returned along with him. The time of the afternoon nap overtook them when they were in a valley full of thorny trees. Allah's Apostle dismounted and the people dispersed amongst the thorny trees, seeking the shade of the trees. Allah's Apostle took Shelter under a Samura tree and hung his sword on it. We slept for a while when Allah's Apostle suddenly called us, and we went to him, to find a bedouin sitting with him. Allah's Apostle said, "This (bedouin) took my sword out of its sheath while I was asleep. When I woke up, the naked sword was in his hand and he said to me, 'Who can save you from me?, I replied, 'Allah.' Now here he is sitting." Allah's Apostle did not punish him (for that) .(Translation of Sahih Bukhari, Military Expeditions Led By The Prophet (pbuh) (Al-Maghaazi), Volume 5, Book 59, Number 458)" 
Narrated Jafar bin 'Amr bin Umaiya: I went out with 'Ubaidullah bin 'Adi Al-Khaiyar. When we reached Hims (i.e. a town in Syria), 'Ubaidullah bin 'Adi said (to me), "Would you like to see Wahshi so that we may ask him about the killing of Hamza?" I replied, "Yes." Wahshi used to live in Hims. We enquired about him and somebody said to us, "He is that in the shade of his palace, as if he were a full water skin." So we went up to him, and when we were at a short distance from him, we greeted him and he greeted us in return. 'Ubaidullah was wearing his turban and Wahshi could not see except his eyes and feet. 'Ubaidullah said, "O Wahshi! Do you know me?" Wahshi looked at him and then said, "No, by Allah! But I know that 'Adi bin Al-Khiyar married a woman called Um Qital, the daughter of Abu Al-Is, and she delivered a boy for him at Mecca, and I looked for a wet nurse for that child. (Once) I carried that child along with his mother and then I handed him over to her, and your feet resemble that child's feet." Then 'Ubaidullah uncovered his face and said (to Wahshi), "Will you tell us (the story of) the killing of Hamza?" Wahshi replied "Yes, Hamza killed Tuaima bin 'Adi bin Al-Khaiyar at Badr (battle) so my master, Jubair bin Mut'im said to me, 'If you kill Hamza in revenge for my uncle, then you will be set free." When the people set out (for the battle of Uhud) in the year of 'Ainain ..'Ainain is a mountain near the mountain of Uhud, and between it and Uhud there is a valley.. I went out with the people for the battle. When the army aligned for the fight, Siba' came out and said, 'Is there any (Muslim) to accept my challenge to a duel?' Hamza bin 'Abdul Muttalib came out and said, 'O Siba'. O Ibn Um Anmar, the one who circumcises other ladies! Do you challenge Allah and His Apostle?' Then Hamza attacked and killed him, causing him to be non-extant like the bygone yesterday. I hid myself under a rock, and when he (i.e. Hamza) came near me, I threw my spear at him, driving it into his umbilicus so that it came out through his buttocks, causing him to die. When all the people returned to Mecca, I too returned with them. I stayed in (Mecca) till Islam spread in it (i.e. Mecca). Then I left for Taif, and when the people (of Taif) sent their messengers to Allah's Apostle, I was told that the Prophet did not harm the messengers; So I too went out with them till I reached Allah's Apostle. When he saw me, he said, 'Are you Wahshi?' I said, 'Yes.' He said, 'Was it you who killed Hamza?' I replied, 'What happened is what you have been told of.' He said, 'Can you hide your face from me?' So I went out when Allah's Apostle died, and Musailamah Al-Kadhdhab appeared (claiming to be a prophet). I said, 'I will go out to Musailamah so that I may kill him, and make amends for killing Hamza. So I went out with the people (to fight Musailamah and his followers) and then famous events took place concerning that battle. Suddenly I saw a man (i.e. Musailamah) standing near a gap in a wall. He looked like an ash-colored camel and his hair was dishevelled. So I threw my spear at him, driving it into his chest in between his breasts till it passed out through his shoulders, and then an Ansari man attacked him and struck him on the head with a sword.'Abdullah bin 'Umar said, 'A slave girl on the roof of a house said: Alas! The chief of the believers (i.e. Musailamah) has been killed by a black slave."(Translation of Sahih Bukhari, Military Expeditions Led By The Prophet (pbuh) (Al-Maghaazi), Volume 5, Book 59, Number 399)" 
Here we clearly see that the Prophet did not have Wahshi killed for killing the Prophets beloved uncle.

Narrated Sa'id ibn al-Musayyab: "While the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) was sitting with some of his companions, a man reviled AbuBakr and insulted him. But AbuBakr remained silent. He insulted him twice, but AbuBakr controlled himself. He insulted him thrice and AbuBakr took revenge on him. Then the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) got up when AbuBakr took revenge. 
AbuBakr said: Were you angry with me, Apostle of Allah? 
The Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) replied: An angel came down from Heaven and he was rejecting what he had said to you. When you took revenge, a devil came down. I was not going to sit when the devil came down. (Translation of Sunan Abu-Dawud, General Behavior (Kitab Al-Adab), Book 41, Number 4878)"

In the above narrations about our Prophet peace be upon him, we clearly without any doubt that he never seeked any personal revenge for his own sake. 
In the above narrations about our Prophet peace be upon him, we clearly without any doubt that he never seeked any personal revenge for his own sake. Prophet Muhammad was Allah Almighty's Messenger, and the leader of the Muslims. He never took things personal. He always seeked the higher level and bigger picture of things. If he executed some pigs, then it is crystal clear from the above narrations about him that he didn't do it for his own personal sake or revenge, but the sake of Allah Almighty, Islam and the Muslims.





Allah Almighty revenged for our Prophet and Islam:
In the following narration, we see a list of names of some Pagans whom the hypocrites of the Christian team seem to love and adore very much that they made such a big deal out of them, and decided to invent fabricated cheap lies against our beloved Prophet. In the following narration, we see how Allah Almighty revenged for our beloved Prophet and killed some of the pigs who caused a lot of sufferings for the Muslims 1400 years ago, whom the Christian hypocrites love and adore so much, that insha'Allah (may Allah Almighty Will it) will end up with them in Hell Fire!
Narrated 'Amr bin Maimuin: "Abdullah bin Mas'ud said, "While Allah's Apostle was praying beside the Ka'ba, there were some Quraish people sitting in a gathering. One of them said, 'Don't you see this (who does deeds just to show off)? Who amongst you can go and bring the dung, blood and the abdominal contents (intestines, etc). of the slaughtered camels of the family of so and so and then wait till he prostrates and put that in between his shoulders?' The most unfortunate amongst them ('Uqba bin Abi Mu'ait) went (and brought them) and when Allah's Apostle prostrated, he put them between his shoulders. The Prophet remained in prostration and they laughed so much so that they fell on each other. A passerby went to Fatima, who was a young girl in those days. She came running and the Prophet was still in prostration. She removed them and cursed upon the Quraish on their faces. When Allah's Apostle completed his prayer, he said, 'O Allah! Take revenge on Quraish.' He said so thrice and added, 'O Allah! take revenge on 'Amr bin Hisham, 'Utba bin Rabia, Shaiba bin Rabi'a, Al-Walid bin'Utba, Umaiya bin Khalaf, 'Uqba bin Abi Mu'ait and 'Umar a bin Al-Walid." Abdullah added, "By Allah! I saw all of them dead in the battle field on the day of Badr and they were dragged and thrown in the Qalib (a well) at Badr: Allah's Apostle then said, 'Allah's curse has descended upon the people of the Qalib (well). (Translation of Sahih Bukhari, Virtues of the Prayer Hall (Sutra of the Musalla), Volume 1, Book 9, Number 499)"

This narration doesn't in anyway prove the false lies that our Prophet is full of hatred that he wished the death and torture of non-Muslims. This lie's statement is too general and too vast. It's easy for some hater of Islam to say such a statement. But as we've seen in the above narrations, our beloved Prophet peace be upon him is full of forgiveness and love toward others.

Repelling evil with good in Islam:
Allah Almighty in the Noble Quran commands us to return the evil that is done to us by others to not only with good, but with best!. 
Let us look at Noble Verse 13:22 "Those who patiently persevere, seeking the countenance of their Lord; establish regular prayers; spend out of (the gifts) We have bestowed for their sustenance, secretly and openly; and turn off evil with good: for such there is the final attainment of the (Eternal) Home."
Let us look at Noble Verse 23:96 "Repel evil with that which is best: We are Well-acquainted with the things they say."
Let us look at Noble Verse 41:34 "Nor can goodness and evil be equal. Repel (evil) with that is better: Then will he between whom and thee was hatred become as it were thy friend and intimate!."
Let us look at Noble Verse 28:54 "Twice will they be given their reward, for that they have persevered, that they avert evil with good, and that they spend (in charity) out of what We have given them."
Let us look at Noble Verse 42:40 "The recompense for an injury is an injury equal thereto (in degree): but if a person forgives and makes reconciliation, his reward is due from Allah: for (Allah) Loveth not those who do wrong."
Allah Almighty loves those who restrain anger: "Those who spend (freely), whether in prosperity, or in adversity; who restrain anger, and pardon (all) men; for Allah loves those who do good. (The Noble Quran, 3:134)" 
Whether people speak evil of you, in your presence or behind your back, or they do evil to you in either of those ways, all is known to Allah Almighty. It is not for you to punish. Your best course is not to do evil in your turn, but to do what will best repel the evil. Two evils do not make a good. 
You do not return good for evil, for there is no equality or comparison between the two. You repel or destroy evil with something which is far better, just as an antidote is better than poison. You foil hatred with love. You repel ignorance with knowledge, folly and wickedness with the friendly message of Revelation. The man who was in bondage of sin, you not only liberate from sin, but make him your greatest friend and helper in the cause of Allah Almighty!. Such is the alchemy of the Word of Allah Almighty!. Your credit for returning evil with good and paying for charity is double. Also if you forgive and return the evil with good, then Allah Almighty will love you and reward you.



No fighting is allowed in Mecca:
Narrated Abu Huraira: "In the year of the Conquest of Mecca, the tribe of Khuza'a killed a man from the tribe of Bani Laith in revenge for a killed person, belonging to them. They informed the Prophet about it. So he rode his Rahila (she-camel for riding) and addressed the people saying, "Allah held back the killing from Mecca. (The sub-narrator is in doubt whether the Prophet said "elephant or killing," as the Arabic words standing for these words have great similarity in shape), but He (Allah) let His Apostle and the believers over power the infidels of Mecca. Beware! (Mecca is a sanctuary) Verily! Fighting in Mecca was not permitted for anyone before me nor will it be permitted for anyone after me. It (war) in it was made legal for me for few hours or so on that day. No doubt it is at this moment a sanctuary, it is not allowed to uproot its thorny shrubs or to uproot its trees or to pick up its Luqatt (fallen things) except by a person who will look for its owner (announce it publicly). And if somebody is killed, then his closest relative has the right to choose one of the two-- the blood money (Diyya) or retaliation having the killer killed. In the meantime a man from Yemen came and said, "O Allah's Apostle! Get that written for me." The Prophet ordered his companions to write that for him. Then a man from Quraish said, "Except Al-Iqhkhir (a type of grass that has good smell) O Allah's Apostle, as we use it in our houses and graves." The Prophet said, "Except Al-Idhkhiri.e. Al-Idhkhir is allowed to be plucked." (Translation of Sahih Bukhari, Knowledge, Volume 1, Book 3, Number 112)"

Some of the infidels that were killed whom the Christian "Answering Islam" team made a great deal out of were killed during the few hours that fighting was permitted in Mecca. When Muslims conquered Mecca, Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him ordered them to enter the city with their swords covered in their cases. Some of the infidels resisted the Muslims for few hours and this is where some blood shed took place.

The point, however, is that Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him didn't seek personal revenges against people, and certainly he was not a murderer. He was Allah Almighty's Messenger who Spread Islam to Mankind by peace, except when wars were imposed upon him and his followers.

4- What does the Qu'ran say about violence?

The word Islam, which means "surrender (to GOD)," is related to the Arabic salam, “peace.” When the Prophet Muhammad brought the revealed scripture called the Qu'ran (“recitation”) to the Arabs in the early 7th century C.E., one of his main purposes was precisely to stop the kind of indiscriminate killing we saw on September 11th.

At the time the Arabian Peninsula was in crisis. The tribal system was breaking down, and the various tribes were locked into a murderous cycle of vendetta and counter vendetta.

At the time the Arabian Peninsula was in crisis. The tribal system was breaking down, and the various tribes were locked into a murderous cycle of vendetta and counter vendetta. For a weak tribe, or a man who lacked powerful protection, survival was nearly impossible. The Prophet himself suffered several assassination attempts, and when his religious and social message ran him afoul of the establishment of Mecca, the small Muslim community was persecuted. Things got so bad that the Muslims had to migrate to Medina, some 250 miles to the north, and there they were subject to attack by the Meccan army, the greatest power in Arabia.

For about five years, there was war and the Muslims narrowly escaped extermination. Terrible things were done on both sides. But when Muhammad sensed that the tide had just begun turn in his favor, he completely changed tack. He concentrated on building a peaceful coalition of tribes, and initiated an inspired, brave and ingenious policy of non-violence. This proved so successful that eventually Mecca opened its gates to the Muslims voluntarily, without a single drop of blood being shed.

Because the Qu'ran was revealed in the context of an all-out war, several passages deal with the conduct of armed conflict. Warfare was a desperate business in Arabia. An Arab chieftain was not expected to take prisoners; it was a given that he would simply kill everybody he could get his hands on. Muhammad knew that if the Muslims were defeated they would all be slaughtered to the last man or woman.
Sometimes the Qu'ran seems to have imbibed this spirit. Muslims are ordered by God to “slay [the enemy] wherever you find them.(4:89). Muslim extremists like Bin Laden like to quote these verses, but they do so selectively, never quoting the exhortations to peace and forbearance that in almost every case mitigate these ferocious injunctions in the verses immediately following. Thus “If they leave you alone and offer to make peace with you, God does not allow you to harm them.” (4:90)

Therefore the only war condoned by the Qu'ran is a war of self-defense.
Therefore the only war condoned by the Qu'ran is a war of self-defense. "Warfare is an awesome evil" (2:217), but sometimes it is necessary to fight in order to bring the kind of persecution suffered by the Muslims to an end [2:217] or to preserve decent values [22:40]. But Muslims may never initiate hostilities, and aggression is forbidden by God [2:190] While the fighting continues, Muslims must dedicate themselves wholly to the war in order to bring things back to normal as quickly as possible, but the second the enemy sues for peace, hostilities must cease. [2:192]



Sheikh Yusuf Al-Qaradawi Condemns Attacks Against Civilians: Forbidden in Islam 
DOHA, Qatar, Sept 13 (IslamOnline & News Agencies) - Renowned Muslim scholar 
Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi denounced the attacks against civilians in the U.S. 
Tuesday and encouraged Muslims to donate blood to the victims of the attack. 
In response to the bloody attack against civilians in the U.S., Sheikh Yusuf issued a statement Wednesday saying that: 
"Our hearts bleed for the attacks that has targeted the World Trade Center [WTC], as well as other institutions in the United States despite our strong oppositions to the American biased policy towards Israel on the military, political and economic fronts.
"Islam, the religion of tolerance, holds the human soul in high esteem, and considers the attack against innocent human beings a grave sin, this is backed by the Qur'anic verse which reads: 
Who so ever kills a human being for other than manslaughter or corruption in the earth, it shall be as if he has killed all mankind, and who so ever saves the life of one, it shall be as if he had saved the life of all mankind," 
(Al-Ma'dah:32). 
"The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, is reported to have said, 'A believer remains within the scope of his religion as long as he doesn't kill another person illegally'," the prominent scholar said. 
He added that haphazard killing where the rough is taken with the smooth and where innocents are killed along with wrongdoers is totally forbidden in Islam. No one, as far as Islam is concerned, is held responsible for another's actions. Upon seeing a woman killed in the battlefield, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, denied the act and said: "That woman shouldn't have been killed anyway!". 
Even in times of war, Muslims are not allowed to kill anybody save the one who is indulged in face-to-face confrontation with them. They are not allowed to kill women, old persons, children, or even a monk in his religious seclusion. 
Qaradawi then asserted that is why killing hundreds of helpless civilians who have nothing to do with the decision-making process and are striving hard to earn their daily bread, such as the victims of the latest explosions in America, is a heinous crime in Islam. The Prophet, peace and blessings be 
upon him, is reported to have stated that a woman was qualified to enter Hell because of the cat she locked up to death. 
"If such is the ruling applied in protecting animals, no doubt, aggression against human beings, a fortiori, deserves greater protection, for human beings are honored by Allah Almighty and are His vicegerents on earth," he added. 
Al Qaradawi said, "we Arab Muslims are the most affected by the grave consequences of hostile attack on man and life. We share the suffering experienced by innocent Palestinians at the hands of the tyrannical Jewish entity who raze the Palestinian homes to the ground, set fire to their tilth, kill them cold-bloodedly, and leave innocent orphans wailing behind. 
"With this in mind, the daily life in Palestine has become a permanent memorial gathering. When Palestinians face such unjust aggression, they tend to stem bloodletting and destruction and not to claim the lives of innocent 
civilians." 
"I categorically go against a committed Muslim's embarking on such attacks. 
Islam never allows a Muslim to kill the innocent and the helpless. 
"If such attacks were carried out by a Muslim - as some biased groups claim - then we, in the name of our religion, deny the act and incriminate the perpetrator. We do confirm that the aggressor deserves the deterrent punishment irrespective of his religion, race or gender," he added. 
"What we warn against, even if becomes a reality, is to hold a whole nation accountable for a crime carried out by a limited number of people or to characterize a certain religion as a faith giving support to violence and terrorism," Qaradawi said. 
Qaradawi clarified that when the well-known Oklahoma incident was carried out by a Christian American, who was driven by a personal interests, Christianity, America or even the Christian world, were not accused of the attack because a Christian masterminded it. 
"I have been asked several questions on TV programs and on public lectures about the martyr operations outside the Palestinian territories, and I always answer that I do agree with those who do not allow such martyr operations to 
be carried out outside the Palestinian territories. 
"Instead we should concentrate on facing the occupying enemy directly. It is not permissible, as far as Islam is concerned, to shift confrontation outside the Palestinian territories. This is backed by the Qur'anic verse that reads: 
"Fight in the way of Allah against those who fight against you, but begin not hostilities. Lo! Allah loves not, aggressors," the renowned Muslim scholar concluded 


5- What about the Bible's cruelty?
Introduction: We must first of all know that the entire Bible is corrupted and unreliable and is mostly filled with man-made laws and corruption! "`How can you say, "We [the Jews] are wise, for we have the law of the LORD," when actually the lying pen of the scribes has handled it falsely?' (From the NIV Bible, Jeremiah 8:8)"

The Revised Standard Version makes it even clearer: 
The Revised Standard Version makes it even clearer: "How can you say, 'We are wise, and the law of the LORD is with us'? But, behold, the false pen of the scribes has made it into a lie. (From the RSV Bible, Jeremiah 8:8)"

In either translation, we clearly see that the Jews had so much corrupted the Bible with their man-made cultural laws, that they had turned the Bible into a lie!
See Also Deuteronomy 31:25-29 where Moses peace be upon him predicted the corruption/tampering of the Law (Bible) after his death.
The Book of Moses predicted that the Law (Bible) will get corrupted. The Book of Jeremiah which came approximately 826 years after did indeed confirm this corruption.


There are several Verses in the Bible that seem to be very cruel. Let us look at few of them: 
Let us look at Numbers 31:17 "Now kill all the boys [innocent kids]. And kill every woman who has slept with a man, but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man." 
Also, let us look at Numbers 31:35-40 "[From the captives of war] 32,000 women who had never slept with a man.......of which the tribute for the LORD was 32 [virgin women]."

Why kill the innocent children? Why kill all of the non-virgin women? Back then, it was only men who fought men in wars. Women rarely fought in battle fields. So what crime did the innocent children and the non-virgin women do?

This verse was sent to me by Yusif 65; may Allah Almighty always be pleased with him: "But after they had moved it, the LORD's hand was against that city, throwing it into a great panic. He afflicted the people of the city, both young and old, with an outbreak of tumors. (From the NIV Bible, 1 Samuel 5:9)"

"tumors" was defined as "with tumors in the groin." This is verified at this link.

Why torture the enemies by destroying their groins?

I wonder how the hypocrites of the Christian "Answering Islam" team would reply to these verses from their x-rated pornographic Bible.

Did you also know that fathers are allowed to insert their fingers into their daughters' vaginas in the porn-full bible?
