Is Islam the only religion in the world? Are Muslims not ashamed that their religion alone is spilling so much INNOCENT blood across the world? Imagine if Christians, Buddhists, Hindus and others are all engaged in these senseless killings like Muslims are doing, would this world be habitable? These demonic animals always kill innocent human beings whilst those they consider their enemies remain unharmed. If there is any god who is happy to see so much blood shed by its adherents, that god must bow its head in shame!

That is the nature of Islamic religion. It is bloody religion and has no meaningful message apart from kill them if they won't submit to Allah and his Prophet Mohammed. Islam means submit to cruelty and destruction. Islam founder had no peaceful life. He slained a pregnant mother whom he claimed has indulged in adultery, snatched his own son's wife, married a nine year old girl. Mohammed was a miserable man before he died. No wonder his followers are doing exactly what he did.Mohammed himself was a cruel and sadistic person. Just grab a Quoran and read it to see the cruelty nature of Islam.
These Islamic people will tell you that Islam is peaceful. Where is the peaceful nature of Islam? From Egypt, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, Northern Nigeria, Southern Philippines, Pakistan, Algeria, Mali,Lebanon to Saudi Arabia; where is this peace these miserable Islamic people talk about?
I have been warning Ghanaians to be watchful of these miserable Islamic people who are migrating in their numbers to Ghana.When they are minority in your country, they pretend to be peaceful. Once they gain strength in your country, that is where they begin to show the Satan in them. This strategy was taught by their so call Mohammed. They are in Ghana purposely to turn Ghana into Islamic state. That is their objective.
Islam is not peaceful and it will not be peaceful. Everything of Islam is based on hatred towards Jews and Christians. Christians and Jews are the major targets of Satan. It is no wonder that Satan's surrogate, Islam, is doing the same thing now. The United States and Western Europe have technology to control these miserable Islamic people. Other than that, these Islamic people would have destroyed these economies.
Islam is bloody, destructive, Satanic, cruel and should be shun away.

Just last Sunday, on the September 22, 2013, Pakistani Islamic suicide bombers killed innocent Pakistan Christians while those Christians were in worship. These Pakistani Satanic Islamic bombers killed the Christians just because they are Christians.
That is what Mohammed, the pedophile has told Muslims to kill the Jews and Christians. These Islamic suicide bombers carried out the orders of their prophet Mohammed to murder innocent Christians, who are worshiping the true God, who sits on His Throne.
These Islamic terrorists have become the surrogates of Satan. Satan is always angry at Christians and Jews wanting to harm them. Islam has become the surrogate of Satan and these Islamist are working hard to destroy Christians.
Islamic 'jihadists' should know that Satan himself has been defeated by our Lord Jesus Christ. They can hate Christians, but they can never defeat Christians, for Jesus Christ has already won the battle for Christians.
I am asking a question and any Muslim can answer it. Why are Muslims burning Christian churches and killing Christians in Muslim countries?

Top Ten People The Bible Tells You To Kill
By: Matthew Chatterton
Many Christians claim the bible is the ultimate moral authority. Is this really the case? I mean, the bible does say “thou shalt not kill”, doesn't it? Well, what else does it say?
Here is my top ten list of people the Bible says to kill.
10) Anyone who doesn't believe a priest
“Anyone arrogant enough to reject the verdict of the judge or of the priest who represents the LORD your God must be put to death. Such evil must be purged from Israel.” Deuteronomy 17: 12 NLT
To disallow the questioning of ideas or the challenging of claims is to regulate thoughts and imprison minds. When someone tells us to sacrifice our intellectual freedom, it means they want to control us.
9) Fortunetellers
“A man or a woman who acts as a medium or fortuneteller shall be put to death by stoning; they have no one but themselves to blame for their death.” Leviticus 20: 27 NAB
Now I don't see fortunetellers as good for society but I also find them relatively inconsequential. What little suffering fortunetellers cause would be far outweigh by the genocide of those people. This the opposite of morality.
8) Witches
“Do not allow a sorceress to live.” Exodus 22: 18 NIV
The authors of the bible believed in witchcraft! This is similar to killing fortunetellers but I just feel compelled to laugh.
7) Those who work on the Sabbath
“The LORD then gave these further instructions to Moses: 'Tell the people of Israel to keep my Sabbath day, for the Sabbath is a sign of the covenant between me and you forever. It helps you to remember that I am the LORD, who makes you holy. Yes, keep the Sabbath day, for it is holy. Anyone who desecrates it must die; anyone who works on that day will be cut off from the community. Work six days only, but the seventh day must be a day of total rest. I repeat: Because the LORD considers it a holy day, anyone who works on the Sabbath must be put to death.' “ Exodus 31:12-15 NLT
Am I supposed to believe that mowing the lawn on a Saturday makes me deserving of death? Somebody who is a hard working member of society deserves death because they pulled an extra day of work? To be killed for a "sign of a covenant" means that somebody very petty got really pissy. This does not sound like a just god.
6) Non-virgins
“But if this charge is true (that she wasn't a virgin on her wedding night), and evidence of the girls virginity is not found, they shall bring the girl to the entrance of her fathers house and there her townsman shall stone her to death, because she committed a crime against Israel by her unchasteness in her father's house. Thus shall you purge the evil from your midst.” Deuteronomy 22: 20-21 NAB
First of all, how could you provide proof of virginity?
Man: “Where's your virginity?”
Woman (hopefully not a girl): “Umm, it might be under the bed.”
Man: “Oh, you better not have lost it!”
Secondly, what harm did she cause that would even be remotely worthy of being stoned to death? What difference does an arbitrary piece of paper saying she's betrothed make?
I guess paper DOES beat rock. Oh, wait! That still makes no sense.
5) Homosexuals
"If a man lies with a male as with a women, both of them shall be put to death for their abominable deed; they have forfeited their lives." Leviticus 20: 13 NAB
Causing suffering for homosexuals by killing them and terrorizing the ones you don't know of yet because they did something that was none of your goddamn business is the opposite of morality.
I am reminded of the previous blog post in which I stated that the Nazis exterminated between 10,000 and 15,000 homosexuals.
4) Followers of other religions
“Whoever sacrifices to any god other than the Lord must be destroyed.” Exodus 22:20 NIV
One, why does God want sacrifices? Does he love the smell of blood in the morning? This verse, amongst others, has been the cause of many holy wars fought between Christians and other theists. The death and destruction caused and justified by this verse is immoral.
3) Sons of sinners
“Make ready to slaughter his sons for the guilt of their fathers; Lest they rise and posses the earth, and fill the breadth of the world with tyrants.” Isaiah 14: 21 NAB
Is it moral for a child to be punished for things they did not do? Why should a child inherit a father's guilt? How would this even happen? “Like father, like son.” is a saying that carries no weight in reality. This is causing suffering when no possible harm has been done. It is immoral.
2) Atheists like me
“They entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and soul; and everyone who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.” 2 Chronicles 15: 12-13 NAB
I am often asked why I concern myself with religion when I don't have one. This is one reason why. Am I really supposed to be respectful of a religion that says to kill me because I use my mind to think rationally? I will not respect any religions that will convict me of a thought crime.
Since when is such bigotry and hatred any aspect of morality?
1) Rape victims
“If within the city a man comes upon a maiden who is betrothed, and has relations with her, you shall bring them both out of the gate of the city and there stone them to death: the girl because she did not cry out for help though she was in the city, and the man because he violated his neighbors wife.” Deuteronomy 22: 23-24 NAB
One thing is made perfectly clear. The man is to be put to death, not because he raped a woman, but because he defiled a man's property. Way to take the moral high-ground, Bible. More importantly, did it not occur the authors of the Bible that, when a woman is being raped, she may go into shock or be petrified with fear? That shock and or fear would be an impediment to screaming.
This is nothing but victim-blaming and it fuels rape-culture. This is immoral.
Conclusion:
Morality is composed of sympathy, empathy, and reciprocal altruism. It is reasoned and argued, as it has been throughout the ages, for the purpose of figuring out how best to maximize prosperity and minimize suffering. The Bible fails, utterly, at this.
Which numbers on the list do YOU fit?

@kofi. You will remain confused because you are being thought blindly and with acrimony. Do you notice that all your quotes come from the OLD TESTAMENT? I don't condemn the O.T but all these laws you've quoted were given through Moses in the instance of the children of Israel which Jesus Himself answering the Pharisees, said they were given because of the hardness of the heart of the people at that time but that was not God's plan for His people.(Matthew 19:1-9) Jesus Christ came to restore the TRUE NATURE of God with the NEW TESTAMENT teachings which is the foundation on which Christianity is built. "Greater Love has no man this, that a man lay down his life for his friends" (John 15:13) Christians believe in FORGIVENESS and not RETALIATION. Please, kofi study the teachings of Jesus Christ and it will never instruct you to go and kill even your enemy.

@joe d. How did you arrive at the 300 millions? The population of the whole Africa in the 1950s was about 220 million. An estimated total number of people into slavery dated back in 1600 and after is 20 million. And where did you find out that the slave masters were Christians? Christian Missionaries came to Ghana for example, to to bring education and establish schools and clinics. You were using events of the 17th Century slavery to justify an unjustified, heinous and barbaric 'jihad' killings in this 21st Century? How do you justify the killings of innocent people in this Watergate Shopping Mall? Were the people in there at war against Islam? Only brainwashed and brainless people will commit and support such atrocious killings under no provocation. You said your ALLAH has now revealed to you to retaliate and kill?? Well, the difference is that, the GOD I serve admonishes me to FORGIVE and even LOVE my enemies and pray for their SALVATION. Thank you, you call some people 'unbelievers' because how could a sane person believe and support such unprovoked killings?.The tide has turned 'believers'! Just look at what is happening, 'believers' against 'believers'. SEEK FOR KNOWLEDGE FIRST!

I have muslim friends who are learned but could not explain a full line of the common muslim prayer. Even Iyakan abudu iyakana sta in they couldnt explain what it mean. Look if Christians and Jews convert to Islam nobody cares but on your part you kill the person for becoming a christian so why does your Quran says there is no compulsion in religion at sura 2:256. By the way you don't know much about the slave trade either so don't think you know much bro. The Arabs were in the slave trade big time so go back to the books and come back again.

certainly you are displaying your ignorance about the two suras, 2:29 talks about muslems in an islamic state fighting disbelievers who have agreed to stay under their protection and not paying tax (tax for able bodied men of militant age excluding women, children and the aged. this has nothing to do with forcing or fighting non-believers.
sura 2: 256 says "there is no compulsion in religion...." this is in consonance with the sura 9: 29, or else they could have denied the non-believers protection or force them to accept islam. there is contraction is the Quran. ALSHABAB, BOKU HARAM ETC are only using the name of the religion for their selfish and worldly interest.

Were they all Muslims? Of course all the children abused by the Catholic church were abused in the name of Christ or these were all muslims disguised as catholic priests? please open your eyes and try to overcome your Islamophobia so that your intellect can breathe some fresh air.

Can you give just one example of any atrocity perpetrated in the name of Christ or Christianity in the past century. If you don't believe in GOD do not discredit religion because the true worshipers of the ALMIGHTY GOD are worshiping him in truth and in spirit not by aggression.
Read Sura 9:29 and sura 2:256 and see for yourself if muslims do understand their scripturs. It is the biggest contradiction in the Quran. PLEASE JUST DON'T BE A COWARD IF YOU CAN@T SPEAK THE TRUTH. Islam is the problem not Christianity, Judaism,Buddism,shintoism etc.

THE SHOCKING TRUTH OF CHRISTIANITY'S FOUNDER
If by today’s Christianity we understand faith in Christ as:
The heavenly Son of God or one in a trinity, who did not belong to earthly humanity, but who lived in the divine likeness and glory.
Who came down from heaven to earth, who took upon himself a human form, so he made preparation for men's sins by his own blood upon the cross.
Who was then resurrected from physical death and raised to the right hand of God, as the Lord of his own people.Who believes in him, who hears their prayers, and guides them.
Who will come again with the clouds of heaven to judge the world and cast down all the foes of God.
Who will bring his own people with him unto the home of heavenly light so that they may become like His glorified body.
If this is today’s Christianity, then such Christianity was founded in what is believed to be the writings of St. Paul' NOT Jesus. However St. Paul said “I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ. Galatians 1:11".
Yet modern New Testament scholars are all in agreement that Paul was not the author of all the -14- apostels that was atributed to him for more than 19- centuries. Did Paul recieve any revelation from Christ? for answers we will examine Pauls' records in the Bible.
Where did Paul go after Jesus' first encounter?
During the encounter Paul said Jesus ordered him “Go into Damascus. There you will be told all that you have been assigned to do. 11 my companions led me by the hand into Damascus, because the brilliance of the light had blinded me.” Acts 22:10-11
Shockingly Paul gave a totally contradictory story to the Galatians stating: “But when God, who set me apart from birth and called me by his grace, was pleased 16 to reveal his Son in me so that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not consult any man, 17 nor did I go up to Jerusalem to see those who were apostles before I was, but I went immediately into Arabia and later returned to Damascus.” Galatians 1:15-17
Who taught making a living from preaching?
Paul quoted Jesus by saying: “The Lord has commanded that those who preach the gospel should receive their living from the gospel.” 1 Corinthians 9:3 {for more info See 2 Corinthians 11:5-15}
Jesus said “As you go, preach this message: The kingdom of heaven is near. ... Freely you have received, freely give. Do not take along any gold or silver or copper in your belts; take no bag for the journey, or extra tunic, or sandals or a staff; for the worker is worth his keep.” Matthew 10:7-10 Nowhere in the Bible was Jesus quoted with a different teaching.
The Mystery of Salvation?
Jesus said "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them." Matthew 5:17
Paul said “For he {JESUS} himself is our peace, who has made the two one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility,15 by abolishing in his flesh the law with its commandments and regulations."Ephesians 2:14
Amazingly when a man asked Jesus: "what good deed must I do, to have eternal life?" (Jesus answered)... keep the commandments." Matthew 19:17
Yet Paul said “All who rely on observing the law are under a curse. 13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: "Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree (crucified)." Galatians 3:10 "I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!" Galatians 2:21 God gave the Jew's a law: "for a hanged man is accursed by God Deuteronomy 21:23".Is the Christ cursed by Gods own law?
Is it possible that Jesus picked a cursed man to baptize Paul and to give him his sight? Paul himself said on Acts 22:12 "A man named Ananias came to see me. He was a devout observer of the law and highly respected by all the Jews living there. He stood beside me and said, 'Brother Saul, receive your sight!'". Note that three years after Jesus, Ananias has no knowladge that Jesus died to save those who believed in him from the curse of the law?
The Mystery of the original sin?
Jesus says: “If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no excuse for their sin. .. If I had not done among them what no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin.” John 15:22. its obvious they are sinners not until Jesus came and said: “I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.” Mark 2:17. Was Jesus saying there were righteous people before he died for our sins?
Paul said, “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.”Romans 5:12 .In reality God was very clear on the fact that there is no inheritance of sin as shown in Deuteronomy 14:16: “Fathers shall not be put to death for their children, nor children put to death for their fathers; each is to die for his own sin.” and Ezekiel 18:17: “He will not die for his father's sin; he will surely live.”
The Mysterious Prophecy of Paul
God said “If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the Lord does not take place or come true, that is a message the Lord has not spoken." Deuteronomy 18:22”
Paul said “We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep {physically died} in him. according to the Lord's own word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left till the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep {physically died}. 16 for the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever." 1 Thessalonians 4:14-17.
Paul agreed with the other gospel writers, in the fact that Jesus would return in their lifetime. And this is what they claim is Jesus' word: “I tell you the truth, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom." Matthew 24:34 (Mark 13:30, Luke 21:32, John 21:22, Matthew 16:28).
Did God change his mind? God answers “God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should change his mind.” Numbers 23:19.
The Apostle That Never...
In the Bible it was God’s intention to have only twelve apostles for Jesus: "The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb."Revelation 21:14
That is why they must find a replacement for Judas, indeed, they choose Matthias as in Acts 1:26: "Then they cast lots, and the lot fell to Matthias; so he was added to the eleven apostles."
Paul said “On the contrary, they saw that I had been entrusted with the task of preaching the gospel to the Gentiles, just as Peter had been to the Jews. For God, who was at work in the ministry of Peter as an apostle to the Jews, was also at work in my ministry as an apostle to the Gentiles."Galatians 2:7-8
In all the 22 times in the Bible where Paul is referred to as an "apostle", only twice is he referred to as an apostle by someone other than himself! These two instances were only stated in the book of Acts,where we also learn that Peter said "Brothers, you know that some time ago God made a choice among you that the Gentiles might hear from my lips the message of the gospel and believe.” Acts 15:7
Yet Paul said “And for this purpose I was appointed a herald and an apostle--I am telling the truth, I am not lying--and a teacher of the true faith to the Gentiles." 1Timothy 2:7
The Mysterious Encounter
Paul said on Acts 22:6 "About noon as I came near Damascus, suddenly a bright light from heaven flashed around me. 7 I fell to the ground and heard a voice say to me, 'Saul! Saul! Why do you persecute me? 8 “Who are you, Lord?” Were there any witnesses? Indeed, for Paul said “the people with me saw the light but didn't hear the voice.”
The book of Acts gives a different account of Paul’s own statement “the men traveling with Saul ... they heard the sound but did not see anyone.” Acts 9:7
The Theology of Grace?
Jesus never mentioned the word Grace as seen HERE yet paul said "Mark my words! I, Paul, tell you that if you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ will be of no value to you at all. Again I declare to every man who lets himself be circumcised that he is obligated to obey the whole law. You who are trying to be justified by law have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace." Galatians 5 :2-4
Surprisingly paul causes Timothy to have fallen from grace as on Acts 16:3 "Paul wanted to take him {Timothy} along on the journey, so he circumcised him because of the Jews who lived in that area, for they all knew that his father was a Greek."
Modern Medicine has proved that circumcision has a lot of health benefits especially in preventing the transmission of many diseases.
The source of Pauls' Knowledge ?
Paul said: "I was advancing in Judaism beyond many Jews of my own age and was extremely zealous for the traditions of my fathers." Acts 22:14
Yet the first book in Judaism states “Now Abraham took another wife, whose name was Keturah." Genesis 25:1. And that wife has six sons: “The sons of Keturah, Abraham's concubine, whom she bore, were Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak and Shuah.” 1 Chronicles 1:32
Paul said “By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son.” Hebrews 11:17 Did Abraham have one or two sons since paul said "for it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the free woman." Galatians 4:22
Paul states “Then the people asked for a king, and he gave them Saul son of Kish, of the tribe of Benjamin, who ruled forty years.”Acts 13:21.
Shockingly Judaism teaches: "Saul was thirty years old when he became king and he reigned over Israel forty-two years." 1 Samuel 13:1. Yet in the original Hebrew text King Saul reigned for ONLY TWO YEARS as seen HERE
Paul's Tribe Mystery?
In the Bible the Tribe of Benjamin had long ceased to exist hundreds of years before Paul, and Pharisee families are unknown in Tarsus. Yet Paul clam "I'm an Israelite myself, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin." Romans 11:1
The Old Testament states “The people grieved for Benjamin, because the Lord had made a gap in the tribes of Israel."Judges 21:15
Eleven or Twelve Apostles?
Paul's never mention the death of Apostle Judas'by hanging himself. Yet in Matthew 27:5 “So Judas threw the money into the temple and left. Then he went away and hanged himself”. Therefore the twelve apostles became eleven before Jesus Resurrection.
Paul wrote “that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5 and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve.” 1 Corinthians 15:4
Who inspired Paul?
Paul admitted he had the blood of the early Christians in his hands by stating “I persecuted the followers of this Way to their death, arresting both men and women and throwing them into prison." Acts 22:4
Yet God told David “You are not to build a house for my Name, because you are a warrior and have shed blood.” 1 Chronicles 28:3.
Paul saw a light falling from heaven when he saw what he thought to be Jesus. Yet Jesus said "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven” Luke 10:18

I'm not here to defend Islam but there are many Moslems who stand against the use of Islam to justify terrorism. Besides, they are not fools because they have chosen a religion. Christianity is, in a real sense, never a religion; it is a way of life birthed out to one through receiving pardon from God through Christ and living in Him. Religion would focus on rigorous attempts by Man to attain good standing with God on the wings of their own strength.

Yet you can still apportion blame to it, religion, and none than Islam for no other reason than being brainwashed by the West.
The clashes of today, conceptually or pragmatically, are more of politics than religion.
Politics is the basis of terrorism, especially in the Arab world because a great of deal of injustice is perpetrated there politically by the Europeans and the Americans.

I cannot stand with people who are lukewarm. Say it as it is that Islam is pure evil and Satanic. How do you enter into a Mall and ordered all Muslims to leave then start executing the non-Muslims? What have those people done to deserve such cruel punishment?
Look, the Mall belongs to a Jew and that is the root cause of this senseless killings. Also, the United Nation should be blamed for this in the sense that when the Kenyan government was helping the Somalis to route out Al-Shabab, they were pushed to the brink of annihilation then the UN came in with some stupid proposal of peace talk with these terrorist given them time to regroup and this is what they came with after that peace talk.
I know this time, the Kenyan government would not listen to any voice waving any "Olive branch" but would go ahead and clean these rats from that part of the world.
Islam is evil and I will pose this question to all to answer. How many people did Mohammad kill before establishing that Evil religion? Did Jesus kill anyone and who was that person?
When Salman Rushdie wrote "Satanic Versus", Ayatollah of Iran place a bounty on his head but was he talking truth about Islam? Yes.

What do you call the loon in Florida who calls himself a priest but goes round packing a gun while burning the Qur'an, the holy book of the Muslims? What is he provoking? What does he need the gun he for if his intent is not to incite violence? When the missionaries first came to Africa to carry our forbears away as slaves, did they not do it with the bible, guns and booze? So give me a break.

Islam means peace submission and obedience to Allah. None has the right to take ones life unjustly. terrorism is terrorism not Islam. the problem with the west and vast majority of Christians is that when a person commits atrocity and he is a Muslim they linked it to Islam.However, if the person is a Christian they mention his name without Christianity. The noble prophet Mohammed (pbuh) said who ever killed himself or someone with an object that person will be punished by Allah in the same way.I am a proud Muslim and I pray the perpetrators would be brought to book.Your article lacks clarity and exposed your ignorance about Islam. A good muslim must not kill,insult, cheat, lie,deceive,. A Muslim must always make peace with one another and must NOT even insult an idol worshipper. I will urge you to read more about Islam before you write anything concerning Islam.May peace be unto anyone who followed righteousness. Shalom...

@ ISSA MOHAMMED. Just find time and read what joe d commented under the caption 'SEEK FOR KNOWLEDGE FIRST'. He made the whole world to know that ALLAH has now revealed to Islam to retaliate and kill 'unbelievers'. And you are saying something absolutely different. Why the contradiction? I like your explanation but I have one question for you. "It has always baffle me why Good Islam Believers don't OPENLY and VEHEMENTLY condemn terrorism committed in the name of Islam with motives like 'jihad' and even blowing up of churches with christian worshipers and mosques as well with fellow Muslim worshipers?" Please, help me out of this jinx.

Truth , there are a lot of voices in condemnation of this henous crime from moslem including well-known clerics who have even gone far as issueing fatwa to bring the pepetrators from their hiding to face justice. That is why you see the killing of clerics in Pakistan this days. But truth, all this effort that we the good muslim are doing will not get to your ears because the media it’s been control by the people who are hell-burnt on destroying Islam. News like that from moslem clerics will not serve their purpose, so nobody will report it. You ask yourself, how many media houses do we muslim control to be able to show all these voices? Not even the so-called Al-jaazera anymore (look at the shareholders) . Sheikh Bagaya in particular ( A Ghanaiana Islamic schorlar) has been a strong critic of these fools called “ Booko Haraam” and other extremist. Again Truth, the better you open your eyes and mind , the better you know what is really going on

Every Muslim must abide by two books only. these books are the Holy Quran and Hadith (the words and actions of the noble prophet ).I can say without fear of contradiction that both the Holy Quran and the Hadith do not support these crimes. Those terrorist knew people are passionate about religion so they use that as vehicle to lure them. To address the issue about jihad, there are so many forms of jihad. The act of avoiding evil and all related deviant behaviors are jihad,striving to acquire money lawfully and in accordance to the teachings of Islam is jihad,acquiring knowledge is jihad. To defend your self and country is jihad. when you attack innocent people at a gathering is just a crime and NOT jihad. the prophet (pbuh ) never attack but defend and that is enshrined in every country 's constitution. A man once urinated in the prophet 's mosque and some of the believers rise to decsipline him, the prophet told them to allow him finish and later the prophet called him and educated him.The man accepted Islam because of the manner the prophet handled the case. These terrorist know what they are fighting for but certainly not Islam. Allah said in the Quran that when someone wronged you and you want to revenge, it must exactly what the person did to you and that is not possible so Allah said in that case you should exercise patience and forgive. Islam preaches forgiveness and if you cant forgive how do you expect Allah to forgive you.Islam is the best way of life. If you delve deep into Islam you will realize these guys are mere criminals. Hope I have addressed your concern. Shalom.

This is worst, in fact, the most senseless, article I have ever read in the whole history of my encounter with views about religious activities in the media. How will the world be without religion. Is religion that useless? Why do you sweep out religion and its prospects so thoughtlessly when, although, people have really suffered due to religion, many others probably are able to exist even in terms of sustenance because of religion. It is these extreme, thoughtless, and arrant uninformed views of people who really do not even know the meaning of the word religion itself they use anyhow, that have clouded the modern effort to objectively and non-partisanly understand what really informs the so-called senseless, I mean senseless use of this facility of human existence to, as it were, protest the injustices of the minority oligarchic leaders who are often simply forgotten in such thoughtless discussion.

Do people in this world think that there is a religion that sanctions the killing of a single soul no matter the reason? why should people try hard to paint islam black just because of a few bad nuts in the religion, which i believed every religion has. people must come to the understanding that islam and for that matter muslim will continue to be with us. so far people who condemned islam and say is a violent religion have failed to quot from the Koran or from the the prophet of islam perching about the killing of another soul. it is high time people come to term and learn about islam and stop speaking ignorantly about the religion for their own good. the religion is peace, but we must remember that others have used the religion for their own personal motive than what the religion teaches them. Christians and other religious groups must be aware that muslims will continue to exist no matter the amount of condemnation. so please, brothers and sisters learn about islam and its followers and the bad ones and we will all fight terrorism in this world together.

Some people believe that man is simply a rational animal motivated by subconscious forces, socioeconomic forces, or innate aggression. Some people believe that man's behavior is controlled by promised rewards or threatened punishments. Some people hold that our existence is meaningless. The way we treat each other depends on what each person or groups of individuals believe about the purpose of man's existence and his potential.
By contrast some christian sects understand that all people are children of Heavenly father and have the potential to become like him. (see Acts 17:29; Ephesians 4:6; Hebrews 12:9). Jesus Christ's admonition to become perfect as He is perfect is evidence of our divine potential. Our knowledge of who we are and what we may become helps us to love one another and treat each other fairly , with kindness and with respect. The Savior taught, "Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets" (Matthew 7:12). This teaching has come to be known as the Golden Rule. Many religions have precepts similar to this teaching of the Savior. For example Judaism teaches that "What is hateful to you, do not to your fellowmen. That is the entire Law; all the rest is commentary". (Talmud, Shabbat, 31a). Buddhism also teaches : "Hurt not others in ways that you yourself would find hurtful" (Udana-Varga, 5, 18).
Confucianism : "Surely it is the maxim of loving- kindness: Do not unto others that you would not have them do unto you" (Analects, 15, 23).
Islam also teaches: "No one of you is a believer until he desires for his brother that which he desires for himself" (Sunnah). What is so confusing about this?
What might it cost a person to be a "good Samaritan"? Is the cost ever too high for us to pay?
Religion cannot be blamed for the excesses and idiosyncracies of men. If we want to apportion blame then it squarely belongs to the religious extremists and nut jobs who call themselves christians, moslems, etc. not the religion itself.

not all who wear gowns and preach lslam are muslims lslam has it's values that one who wants to be a Muslim MUST adhere to. void of that does not make you a muslim in ALLAH'S kingdom. Islam doctrine and values are underpinned by PEACE, DIALOGUE AND NON JUDGEMENT .whoever does not follow these is only giving lip services ,and unfortunately only ALLAH knows best . let us all beware of false persons who call themselves Muslims and practice vices. Islam condemns killing , stealing and sabotage.Let us not echo and glorify these frustrated criminals who are week and rejects, who hide under the name of Islam to commit atrocities . In London when a Nigerian Abebayow killed the police man in the name of fighting for Islam. this guy came from a devoted Christine family, and because he wanted to course murder he pretended to be an Islam convert, this is not a Muslim, he is a coward deceitful creature, and the media and world over beware of such persons.Don't look at the ARABS, religion evolved from the middle east, to support them change , but that hasn't worked. do not look at their lip services posing as Muslims, judge them by their deed.Not all who read the bible are Christians , only those who practice the teachings of the bible and adhere to it. People of the world, let us not make heroes of cowards and hypocrites. l will at this point plead to the press to stop calling terrorist Muslims, as that boost their ego. I end with a note of caution, and that it the world powers USA, UK, RUSSIA etc must be open and fair dealing with all nations. Where there is no justice, peace will not prevail , as those suppressed will fight their freedom.

one thing that should be noted is that there is a black sheep in every community.therefore we can have black sheep among the muslims but they are not representing Islam in any way, they shall be judged by Allah accordingly on the day of accountability. We all know that Adolf Hitler killed 6million jews, we have no right to say that it was his religion that taught him to do that, we only have to blame him as an individual, before you can attribute his actions to the religion he professes to follow, it will be appropriate to study the Holy book he believes in to ascertain what that has to say in terms of killing innocent human being. Also, if one wants to know how the car is, you make sure a good driver sits behind the wheel and not a bad driver. So it will be appropriate we judge Islam using the good muslims and the best of the Muslims is our beloved Prophet Muhammad (SAW)who made the 1.3billion muslims in the world to believe that Jesus was the Christ and that Jesus's mother is the best of all women created by Allah as stated in the last testament, the Holy Qur'an.
Islam implies peace between oneself and other human beings. The Holy prophet said “None of you can be a true believer until you love for your brother what you love for yourself” (Bukhari).
He said again in another hadith “none of you can be a true believer until you love for your neighbor what you love for yourself” (Muslim).
Neighborhood in Islam is described as people living within 40 houses from your house to the South, 40 houses to the North, 40 houses to the East and 40 houses to the West. When any one in those houses is hungry you have the duty to feed him, is sick, you have the duty to visit him, share with them in happiness and in sorrow.
A true believer cannot at the same time hate his own brothers and neighbors, cannot kill persons and burn houses in the name of religion. The holy prophet is again reported to have said; “To insult a fellow human being is irresponsible and to kill him is a rebellion against Islamic faith (an act of disbelieve)”.
In the Qur'an, Allah forbids us from killing innocent souls by saying in Qur’an 5:32 “And whoever kills a soul, unless it be for murder or spreading corruption in the land, it is as though he has killed the whole humanity, and whoever saves a soul, it is as though he saved all humanity”. (Q 5:32). By this Islam stresses the sanctity of human life. Islam abhors violence, acrimony and rancor and therefore, a true believer cannot be violent in the name of God or a political party. When you are at peace with your brothers and neighbors then you are on the path of submission to the will of Allah.
The Qur’an further instructs us in relation to those who are non-Muslims to be fair and just in our dealings with them, if one refers to Qur’an 60: 8 “Allah does not prevent you, in relation to those who are not fighting against you and who are not driving you out of your homes on account of your faith, to be kind and just in your dealings with them; for Allah loves those who are just.”. This means a true Muslim is not suppose to attack non- Muslims simply because they are non-Muslims, rather he fights in self- defense and in defense of his faith.
Any Muslim who acts contrary to any of these provisions is going away from Islam.
Qur'an chapter 9:5 which is mostly quoted as "wherever you find the mushriks (unbelievers)kill them" is mostly interpreted out of context.It is appropriate we understand the historical context within which it was used. the cause of its revelation is that there was peace treaty signed between the muslims and the mushriks of macca. but the Mushriks unilaterally broke the treaty and were killing the muslims, as a results Allah commanded the muslims to fight back wherever they find. No army general will keep quiet when his subjects are being attacked. even with that commandment Allah asked them no to transgress beyond bounds and Allah said in Qur’an 2:190 “take arms only against those who take arms against you” and in another verse He said “And if they withdraw from fighting and extend peace to you, Allah denies you any access to further engage in fighting.”(Q 4:90). He said stated “And if they (the enemies) extend their arms to you for peace you must also respond by extending your arms to them in peace” (Q 8:61).
This means that a true Muslim is not suppose to initiate any fight but only fights in retaliation, and even the retaliation should be of the same measure.
In sum, Islam and of course true Islam is about peace with oneself, peace with Allah and the fellow human beings. In a general sense therefore, Muslims must preach and behave peace at all times. Whatever action a Muslim takes must be guided by Islamic moral code.
My advice to all well meaning human beings is that we should Islam Judge Islam by actions of the Muslims but by what the the Qur'an teaches and that of the sayings and practices of prophet Muhammad,lets study them with open heart and mind and I believe that our negative perception about Islam will change.
every true Muslim will condemn in the strongest term the dastardly act by al-shabab in Kenya who use Islam as a cover to pursue their parochial agenda. Every true muslim condemns killing innocent human being whether it is in Kenya, Nigeria, Iraq, Afghanistan and so on.
this is what Islam teaches us as true Muslims.
