Is every muslim a terrorist? #61 (permalink) Mon Dec 24, 2007 8:19 am   Is every muslim a terrorist?
 

I've had a bunch of Muslim friends, and might I note, they are neither terrorists nor religious fanatics that stride around with C4s wrapped around their stomachs.
This negative image of Muslims, that has been gradually integrated into the masses' head, should be blamed upon the media and its incorrect depiction of Muslims, and the society's daftness of thought to actually comprehend the fact that only Muslims that kill, rape, blow and commit suicide acts are shown on the TV, whilst the normal ones are kept off the camera just because they aren't profitable for the news.

Hey all,
Iam surprised now. I didn't expect before that other people around the world think that every muslim is a terrorist. those terrorists by the way are not muslims ,they just say that thay are but they don't do anything related to Islam. If you are not sure, you can see what non muslims do with muslims in palestine and iraq. If you did, then you will know who is a terrorist?...

hello every body in this forum ,am so glad ,very pleased to be part of this forum ,with regard that question which deals about muslims and terorist ,i'll start my discussion by defining the purpose and the great aimof islam and than i will deal with that question .
first let me point out what islam
Islam is a religion whish was send down to the prophet Mohammed peace and prayer be upon him ,allah sent it down with the coran to all human kind inorder to guide humanity to the rightest path .taht is islam which is related to coran in every moment every periode and every place .islam is a religion of brotherhood ,friendship and kindness .
now let me deal with terorist
terorist is a name to some people who do bumb and crimes against humanity ,and if they really muslims as some european and american countries think about ,why they comit crimes in their own countries .i don't agree with the idea that muslim is a terorist because what someone can see in the media sometimes is not the same with the truth .in this world there is a lie that acts like a virus whithin the mind of humanity and that lie is that people are living in fear and greed ,so the world has taken a nightmare apear .now the truth is more than enough power ,is more than enough creative ideas is more than enough joy is more than enough love .all of this begins to come trough a mind that has an islamic characters an islamic principles .

hey all,
I just want to talk alitle about Islam and non muslims.
Islam And Non-Muslims
Islam protects the blood, wealth and honor of non-Muslims who have a pact with an Islamic nation. They may not be oppressed nor transgressed against; they may not be deprived of their rights, nor ill-treated in dealings.

Allah says:

(Allah does not forbid you from those who do not fight you because of religion and do not expel you from your homes - from being righteous toward them and acting justly toward them. Indeed, Allah loves those who act justly). (60:Cool

The Messenger of Islam, Muhammad said: "Indeed whoever oppresses one with whom we have a pact, deprives him of his rights, burdens him with more than he can bear, or takes something from him without his consent, then I will dispute with him on the Day of Requital." He then pointed with his finger to his chest. "Indeed whoever kills one with whom we have a pact, who is under the responsibility of Allah and His Messenger, Allah will forbid him from smelling the fragrance of Jannah (Heavenly Gardens), and indeed the fragrance of Jannah may be perceived from a distance of seventy years." (Baihaqi)

The Messenger of Islam, Muhammad said:

"My Lord has commanded me that we should not oppress the ones whom we have a pact with (i.e. non-muslims whom reside in the lands of the muslims) and neither other them. " (Baihaqi)

I hope all of you can understand Islam well

Well, since the initial question reads "Is every Muslim a terrorist?" we should first establish how we define the term "Muslim", don't you think?

Dear Torsten
don't think it is important to know details of a religion to know whether the people who believe in it are terrorists or no.Not all people know what is Christianity but for sure they know that not all of them are terrorists.Also I think that sometimes we need to look for what we need to know not to ask questions that may need the whole day to answer or even to read it's answer.Any way if you really don't know what is the term Muslim,I can tell you the short answer
Muslims are people who believe that the only god is Allah and that his prophet is Mohamed.Again it is not that important to know what is a religion to know if all people believe in it are terrorists or no
Thanks and sorry if there are many mistakes in my English

Hi Baylood,

I think this topic is a pretty serious one. However your typing style and language remind me more of a teenage chatroom setting rather than a meaningful discussion.

You must forgive Torsten, Baylood. I'm sure he'll come to realise and appreciate as I do what a big effort you are making writing in English. That's a great way to progress.

Keep up the good work!

Hi Conchita,

So producing phrases like 'the word of terr comes from bush' and 'really terr is united states' requires a big effort? How can Baylood make any progress if you tell him that he is doing a great job ignoring basic spelling and punctuation rules? If you encourage him to continue like this, he'll develop the habit of expressing any of his thoughts in SMS style. Do you really think this will do him any good?

Well at least he is trying and I don't see that you have helped him when you say that he is writing SMS

So how are you going to help him? Why is it so difficult to write short and simple sentences? After all our forum is a place for people who want to improve their English. I understand that it is impossible to write every forum message with out any mistake. However, if we encourage people to ignore basic rules we don't help them learn English. Tolerating phrases like 'the word of terr comes from bush' is unacceptable. Neither the word 'terr' nor 'bush' exist in English and it's not difficult to use a spell checker.

If learners of English read this type of English they get confused. What exactly can they learn from this type of text? That it is good to use words that don't exist? That you should get a pat on the shoulder for ignoring basic rules?

Please do explain to me how you will help Baylood.

Of course, we have to encourage students to improve their spelling, Torsten. Now, encouraging is all about giving confidence, and it seemed to me that your word choice (or was it the tone, perhaps?) wasn't quite the most appropriate.
