This is quite alarming if the RCMP (Police) in Canada could even manipulate and coerce, vulnerable, addicts who became Muslims. A lot of rhetoric calls for "Muslims to speak out against terror and stop it". How can we stop it when the police are the ones behind it and possibly other governments and intelligence agencies? In fact if we look at most cases of terror no one is ever held responsible for organizing or creating the terror. Sufficient investigation i...
There are two answers to this two part question and the answers really come down to a factual basis and also separating actions from the teachings of any religion including Islam. I say this because in the world there are examples of people who are of certain religions or professions that disgrace the rest and incorrect and harmful actions can't be used to stereotype or prejudice an entire group. To find the answer you need to look into the larger picture and have an understanding...
I think this is very important when reading the Qur'an, it gives you an idea of the context and situation it was written other. Especially because anti-Islamists try and take a few select verses from the Qur'an out of context in order to convince others that Islam is violent and intolerant to non-Muslims. We must remember the conditions each verse was made under, and also take into consideration other supporting verses when reading and interpreting the Qur'an. If one verse...
I'm glad to see there are a lot of tolerant posters here. There are a lot of white supremacists who are trying to justify this.

This is another shameful example of the confusion Hadith introduce to Muslims.Let's remember that there are thousands of Hadith, and even the so-called authentic Hadith authors, admit they've done their best to compile what they believe are authentic Hadith.The fact is that even Bukhari admits, even his collection may not be perfect.Further, the Hadith quotes the sister (link below) has found completely change the fundamentals taught in the Qur'an of marriage and decency....

We thought we'd cite a common example, that there are many things in common with those who hate Islam and Muslims and spread hate and propaganda.It is clear that many of these people are simply uneducated racists, while others may be a combination of racists, who are also motivated by extreme religious views to destroy Islam.Many are also on an apparent mission to amend the laws of whatever countries Muslims inhabit in order to fight Islam, unfortunately.It is...

Mennochio Alex McKnight I apologize if this seems rude. But I’m not here to say anything poor about Islam. In fact, I am quiet fascinated by the teachings in the Quran and Prophet Mohammad.

The Christian Effect Areeb Yasir Christian organizations are everywhere, helping and giving to the poor. They are in South Africa, India, Afghanistan, Mexio and Iran.
