Simple, that Muslims fail to condemn the evil done in their name is sufficient to brand them by association. All that is needed, for acceptance is for the Muslim community to stand up like a man and condemn those that support and perpetrate evil in their name. all the best urban

They do, but I've never seen or heard it documented in the news media. I've quoted this before but here's a list of important Muslims condemning the attacks, that our western media have chosen not to show us. http://www.muhajabah.com/otherscondemn.php

4ftfingers (where did you get that name by the by) when I saw you list I was initially amazed and gladdened. But on reading a random sample from the list one thing strikes me. All those I read failed to condemn Muslims for acts of terror, they were worded in such a way as to avoid that. Either, they condemned a particular act with out admitting Muslim responsibly or they gave a general condemnation of terrorism leaving it open to redefine those Muslims committing atrocities in the name of Islam as something other than terrorists. Would any condemnations be left once those hiding behind words are removed? all the best urban

My aunt was married to a muslim for over 20 years already. When they married the man promised to love her and to never hurt her and would love only her. As it turned out, she was hurt and the man brought another wife into their home which she could never accept. For a man to have many wives is something also that I could never accept and I believe it is something that is acceptable in Islam. I can't say that it is bad or good because it would not be fair.

Islam does allow a man to a marry one or more than one but not more than four. But islam has kept a strict binding on it. The person who marries more than one at one time has to keep balance between the two. For example in a week , he has to divide it in two. So he has to accommodate both women equally and islam says if you can not do the justice ,better to marry one . Islam asks its followers to be kind to wives and if they could not they would be punished here after.

Honestly I dont know the quran personal but why are some types of muslims believe in succide bombings and what have you and harming innocent women and children , but then some are against those sort of acts. In my country conflict in the Muslim community with terroism , an attempted coup why does it have to reach to that stage and im living on a island where we have our problems but not of this sort. Then some Muslims are totally against those groups who are these acts.

So what are shiad muslims( may spell incorrectly). I agree with if you kill someone one you need to be punish but what about self defense. Most muslims take sciptures from the old version of the bible but the are changes and live lessons, called forgiveness. God is great and he himself said he wont end the world with water because of diseases so what about the new laws he made for instance love you fellow brethren, forgiveness, im not perfect it hard to forget but if someone a little boy in a market stole one fruit because he's hungry ill will not of cut off hands for it...(just giving an example of crudeness)

Assalam o alaikum my dear sister..first of all i suggest u to understand our basic principles of our Islam.Islam is religion of peace..it teaches us brotherhood, luv, co-operation, trust in Allmighty n these r few of its attribute..Justice is one of its attributes too..C like normal law of our lands ..there is a difference between the punishment giver to a minor below 18 n above it..right...same way according to shariah..if a minor child steals his punishment will not be cutting of his hands..the punishment given will be on the basic of many things..like wat he stealed, how much effect did it had n all..Plz i request u too cleray remove the Cruel justic epoint from u r mind...If u have ny questions u have many website to ask imam , n also u can contact n sound muslim brother or sister to have a clear image..dnt simple implant wrong things in u r mind... Assalam o alaikum

I had two friends killed in cold blood yesterday by Muslim fanatics. Another man was shot and killed a few kilometres down the road. Their only crime was that they were teachers. I live in fear every day because I am also a teacher and a target. That is my self assessment.

Ido not know about Bali bombers but if the court did not have guilt proved , they may free alleged terrorists. According to law ,all are innocent until proved guilty.

The most appalling thing i have ever heard till date!How can u blame the whole Islamic community for a crime which a estranged member committed?If we Muslims follow suit,should we then blame the whole Korean nation for the brutal killings of students and faculty in an american school some time back?No,we wont.because we muslims are born with a sound mind which doesn't allow us to make impulsive statements.We ponder over the facts and then pose such questions which we know may evoke condemnation unlike u. Secondly,Islam has never preached any inhuman act.In Islam,the sin of killing a human is as grave as the sin of massacring the whole human race is.Muslims have always been known to be kind hearted.I would like to cite the example of creation of Israel out of Palestine.We Muslims gave them living space to escape the wrath of Adolf Hitler and they stabbed us in the back by not only occupying the land of palestine but by killing its people every now and then.Who is a criminal now?Who is a terrorist?Make assessment of the facts associated with the creation of israel and then decide for yourself,who actually is the terrorist.

I can only speak for myself and yes aI am definatly ani Islam i have studied it and read your quoran and it speaks ecvil not good i do not approve of the way you treat either women or children i do not care for the mind controll where you are not permited to question your faith or of the many horrendous things that have and are still being done in the name of Allah! My God (not Allah ) would never want people killed in his name or beheaded i n his name to me this makes even your god Allah evil,the way you indoctrinate and brainwash your children is also wrong in many places they are being taught how to be terrorist and to kill other peoples can you with good concienc e call this right???I cant

First of ALL...i cant belive tht u would have read Holy Quran..i think u would have not even read the single verse of it...Or mite be u woould have never understood it...it happens with humans for example in some exams v write the whole answer properly without even understanding a bit of it..mite be u r of this case...yes our Quran speaks about Gud n Evil..it tells us to distinguish b/w the twon follow the gud..Allah as said is the arabic word which represents Our lord who rules the whole trinity..he has never ever told to kill people..u r very wrong in the concept of Quran, Allah n islam...Quran is not to read it is to read n understand n follow..tht wat islam is ... ISlam has attributes like justice, brotehrhood, luv, peace, co-operation n the gud list would not end.. V never brain wash our children ..tht's not islam...v tell them to take Quran as guide n lead a pure n fruitfull life..which Allmighty Likes...C terrosist mite be any one Mualim, christian, hindu jew anyone,,,Our Islam..never teaches to harm anyone at all..This page is very small to tell u wat QURAN is..the true essence of Quran is peace my friend do understand tht..for which u need to read it carefully n understand.. where u will get enough examples to prove ISLAM is the religion of peace... The pure n original holy bible says as wat our Quran says..Jesus(PBUH) is the creature n messenger of Allah..to show one of the miracles of Allah, he was born to Virgin Mary..plz do read Sura Maryum in Quran...v all know Quran is the only holy book which has not been manipulated till date..so believe Quran... Allah says in Quran..Sura 112 Al-iklas 1.He is Allah, the One! 2.Allah the eternally besought of all 3.He Beqqetteth not nor was begotten 4.And there is non comparable on to him understand these verses n then comment

First of all i would like to correct you. It is not my God. In arabic we call Him with different names, like RUBUL ALIMEEN IT HAS COMPREHENSIVE MEANING .the owner of whole universe. Sun ,Stars, Oceans, Plannets, Constellations,Mountains,Pradise,Hell and list can go along.If you think your God and My Allah is different ,as my faith is, there is only one God. So please check this and correct yourself.

This is not true, Jesus was son of Mary, a virgin woman, a woman who devoted her life to a church, and we muslims believe she was virgin and she was never wife of God.

Hello yemberzal For me all religion are good, Islam, Catholic, Buddhist. They teach us how to be a good person. But some person who have wrong though make it become a bad person. I think that one word can be a lot of words in each person depend on how the person see the word. That the religion did. The basic are good but some people got wrong with how the think. I have several muslims friends and they are good. Even I have a story about other stranger, they are muslims and I can see it from their clothes, they ( several man) are didn't respect us as a girl, they teasing me and that make me uncomfortable. But maybe they do that because their habits or they use to do that. I hate that kind of person, not because their religion but more about they do. And they us muslim's clothes, that will be make other people have negative thinking about their religion. I am sorry about this, I just want to be honest with my personal story that happen to me and they really disturb me. God bless you *angel www.beautycosmetictips.com

Dear little-angel, you are correct,that people may be good or bad , religion has nothing to do with it. I agree religions teach good things and there may be muslim, who may not be practicing Islam and may do all bad things.Black sheep are found in every community but we can not blame a particular sect or religion for their immoral or criminal activities.Thank you for your comments

Terrorism, intolerance, hatred, inability to handle criticism, and censorship. Those are the reasons I think people are "anti-Islam" which is usually a hyperbole for someone/thing that criticizes Islam (since criticism is apparently anti-Islam).

I am a Christian who is not anti-Islam or any other religion. Part of my belief system is that people are free to worship how, where, and what (or Who) they may. It disturbs me that others, including those who have had negative experiences with a Muslim, would shun an entire religion based on what a small percentage of its followers may do.

I don't actually have a negative thing to say about my own personal experiences with ppl of islamic beliefs. My belief is in everything there is bad and good. You should not tarnish the whole for a few. I disagree with fanaticism in all it's forms! I love the individual for themselves, not for their beliefs. If I do not like someone, it is because of their own behaviour, their ignorance or refusal to see others as human beings. I do not agree with all things in some peoples religious beliefs but I respect each individuals right to beleive what they want. I love my friends for themselves and I don't judge there beliefs. If I question something, I educate myself on what they beleive and ask them to explain the belief so I am not ignorant. I don't have to like the reason, but I at least can have more knowledge and understanding of different cultures and beliefs and give educated comments.
