wrong thoughts on religion islam. your wrong!!!!

yes, it true..dont thought wrong on Islam..maybe that a little that use on name Islam...but not in Islam..

As salaam alaykum. I try to explain this to a lot of non Muslims here in the US. We are constantly indoctrinated by our media to believe Islaam is evil and they make every effort to associate Islaam with terrorism. We have people who don't know how to decipher the truth from the lies and thus resulting in people having hatred towards Islaam. America tagged Muslims and Islaam all over 9/11 and I still don't believe what we were made to believe was the absolute truth on the matter. A lot of people feel that way. But it is hard for the small 5% of us to preach to the masses about what is really going on when most of them blindly believe what is being broadcast by our government, who will profit from this hatred. I often believed my idea of Heaven would be where everyone is Muslim. I think we would be more peaceful in general. Islaam teaches us peace, modesty and faith, not terrorism. Terrorism is what it is and because there are Muslim terrorists doesn't mean we are all evil. It is very hard to explain that to people though. Please continue with what you are doing, I commend you for it.

Hi, I know what you are going to point us. It also made me think again and again which religion in this world has asked to kill innocent people? I think no religion says so. But gthe situation has now crossed all these barriers like religions and all. It has come to a point when we are just so much hurt. Our country is bleeding from what has happened in last few days. Why all these things happen? what they get by killing people like this? If any other have done that to any other nation, what could have been the reaction? hope you understand where it hurts.

I am a Christian, Lafouine. I personally in favor with you that Islam is a good religion. We have different faith and doctrine but we all have the same direction towards the Ultimate Good, the Almighty One. We have different Ways to follow towards good. There are similar teachings that we follow like' "Love your Neighbor". There are also Christians like Muslims who violates this Law of love. Anyway, we all both must combat those who are evil. Happymylotting!

true muslim here too!

It's not the religion that is evil but there are some muslims who have a different outlook, or approach to their religion. Every religion in the world is good, they dont teach us to be bad.. and just because terrorism that has happened in the world is by muslims doesnt mean that all muslims are bad and the religion is evil, like i said earlier there's just some muslim people who have a different approach to their religion. By the way, im a Christian.

I am in the UK and the people that own and run our local newspaper shop are from Yemen and they are Muslims and I might add great people. They do not try to push their religion on anyone and they work hard. It annoys me that many of the people such as the Taliban, and others who are creating havoc in the world are in my opinion hiding behind religion and therefore giving all Muslims a bad name. I have yet to meet a Muslim I didn't like and in our neighborhood here in the UK there are lots of them. Rant over - lol.

I agree that the religion is not bad or should I say is as bad as any religion is. We all have our belives and ruls and who are we to say that what I belive is beter then what you belive. I live in Australia originaly I am from a Europian country that has some 20% population that are Muslim so I know how people do things. In my old country they push Nationality more then religion in Australia they push religion more. I dont know how informed you are of the Islamic groups in Australia but some imams (I think thats how you spell it) are going to an extreeme lenghts to provoke the non muslim and oftem muslim people as well. Like the comment made that women in Australia deserve to be raped because of the way we dress. Also there was a study done by the islamic consul and they found out that many of the imaams preach things that incourage people to go agains the law in many things. This is something published by the Islamic body so there is no misconception here. I belive that most muslim people are great but those few that fight for what they call "islam" make everyone else bad as well. Another thing is that when people kill in the name of Islam most Muslims dont say anything you only hear the people that support them. We (non muslims) only hear that story your voice is not strong enough for us to hear it. Why is there no protest against those that kill in the name of all of you?

I am not saying all muslims are terrorists...but all the terrorists seem to be muslims...

I must admit i do not know much about your relegion. But i believe that nobody should kill anyone. From the begining of time wars and killing have been going on. There are murders the world over on city streets. I can never understand the so called "cristian wars". If people would just stop having wars and just follow their faith "thou shall not kill" to love and help each other. What a beautiful place the world would be to live in. Think instead of killing each other because of what one believes is not the same as the other. I think most are all about love so why kill? Instead of killing they can all unite in ways of saving our planet. Building instead of destroying. Dont we all want the best for our children.? Love not hate. Build not destroy. Muliply not kill. I also call killers ignorant people. Some may also be very mentaly disturbed.

Say, I'm not a muslim, nor christian, nor jewish, nor hindu. I'm actually an atheist, but I'm not here to criticize any stereotypes of islam religion. Because you know why? That is just like being disrespectful toward muslims (you and others) and I don't know a thing about what it's like to be a muslim anyway. I have never thought that islam is a terrorist religion, and I will never think it is. One thing I know is that there are some similarities between judiasm, (or however that is spelled or said) christianity, and islam. Not a lot, but just a little bits of similarities. If you say that islam teaches you muslims to have good and reliable personality, you are probably right, and I believe that you said the right thing there. Well, most of the TV reports and many other medias are filled with loads of biases, and brings bunch of negative comments about a lot of things that they hate. Perhaps islamic religion is one of them. Sounds like you are very angry with the fact that there are many biased facts flying around here and there through the media about islamic religion, carrying bunch of negative comments and not a single positive comments. Just treat those comments as one of those what you call it, racist comments. They are not really racist comments, but it's a good simile though, comparing negative comments of islamic religion to racist comments, don't you think? Hope that helped to make you feel better as a muslim.

I think all religions teach more or less the same thing.Afterall religion is an institution that was formed , and is meant to regulate human behavior, but the question is do they do their job? I think not.None of the religions in this world are peaceful as of now.There are certain elements that spread hatred and ill will and target other religions.that is to be strongly condemned by all, no matter what religion you belong to And another thing is that you should have the strong conviction to call an anti social act wrong and condemn it , even if it comes from people belonging to your own religion.It's only when their own people are condemning their cowardly act of killing innocents that things can be set right.here the religious leaders have a great role to play in condemning the act and boycotting anyone who indulges in anti social acts..

Do you really get 72 virgins when you die?

ya i know many people treat muslims as terrorist...its not ur problem its worldwide muslims problem and this i shappend because using words like jihad,,terrorist are creating havoc..

Hi lafoaine! I am a christian but i also have muslim friends. I even have a brother in-law who is a muslim convert. And i believe that Islam is not a bad religion. I just don't understand why muslim terrorists drag along Islam with their actions. Their usual reason why they terrorize is that they are fighting for their religion. Now i know from you that what they are doing is not in accordance with Islam. Because honestly i really hate those people and i just hope they will be enlightened.

Every one have to think before criticizing a religion. I am HINDU but I should not say other are doing all the wrong.Every one should have honor on others. One should respect others. We should have minimum responsibility. In INDIA no one can expect that WE ARE UNITED. Yes I have 7 friends who are Muslims. I really trust them. they are ready to do any thing for me. What I am saying is all are equal. Please think about all the people. Don't comment based on some events. Terrorists, I hate this word every time I have heard. They don't know why they are doing nonsense.Really they don't have sense. With that people only lot of members are criticizing. I really want the people to be united. Do not hate ISLAM, HINDU, CRISTIAN. WE ARE UNITED. INDIA is United. The entire world id United. We should have minimum common sense before responding to such sensitive things. Killing innocent people is very disagreeable incident ever. I really support my dear friend's review

No religion including Islam teaches violence. It is the followers, not all but a few, use the name of religion for their own good. It easier for a person to use the name of religion to mobilize people to do something wrong. The same thing is happening right now. A few persons are creating all the trouble and the persons are stereotyping them for the entire community. Because of a few miscreants, more than 90% of the good persons belonging to the community are held responsible.

I am catholic but I don't see anything wrong being a muslim, much more about Islam. Killing innocent people, kidnappings, inequalities done by other muslims can't be generalized that all muslims are like that. It is their own decision, choice to do that. I do believe that killing is a sin no matter what religion you are into because it is against the law of God and man. I am against any terrorist attacks because terrorists are wasting their time and some waste their lives and so with many innocent people. I pray that God will bless everyone of us no matter what we believe in. And grant our world the peace we all need.

A good Muslim is just the same as good Catholic.I've never had any problems with people who are honest with themselves, who believe with all of their heart and see the life as a precious gift.I could say that true believers are filled with love and they don't know hate.Hate is a weakness.If someone knows any religion that teaches to hate or to kill, I would like to know what it is.

hey thats nice to know. People like you are the one because of which the world is still good place to leave in. I have a good friend who is a muslim and one of my friends wife was pregnant then my muslim friend donated blood to this friend's wife. Nothing is good or bad in world only thinking makes it so. Every religion has same thing in common to love you, yourself, people, country and other. help the poor and needy. Telling people about what are bad sins and how one should avoid them. If any religions person including mine does a bad work he will be punished sometime later in his life. And ISlam... i like the traditional food that muslims make after the EID festival. No religion is bad.
