Free your mind! Broaden your horizon! But most importantly do not judge Islam by what it's followers do, whether it be on 9/11 (dont get me started on that) or any other event.

Chapstikelova, you sound like another one who has been relying on the biased media for your information.
It is a SIN in Islam to kill an innocent person, it is prohibited! What those people did on 9/11 is not justified any in any way. But how did the "democratic" "civilised" nation of America respond? By killing milions more innocent people.
Not only is senseless murder prohibited in Islam but so is suicide.
"...if any one killed a person - unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land - it would be as if he killed the whole of makind: and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole of mankind...(Noble Quran 5:32)"

"Fight in the cause of God those who fight you, but do not transgress limits; for God loveth not transgressors. (The Noble Quran, 2:190)"

"God commands justice, the doing of the good, and liberality to kith and kin. He forbids all shameful deeds, injustice and rebellion. Thus does he instruct you, that you may receive admonition." 16:90

"O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of male and female, and made you into nations and tribes, that you may know and cooperate with one another." 49:13

"...approach you with hearts restraining them from fighting you as well as fighting their own people. If Allah had pleased, he could have given them power over you, and they would have fought you: Therefore if they withdraw from you but fight you not, and (instead) send you (Guarantees of) peace, then Allah hath opened no way for you (to war against them)." Holy Qu'ran 4:90

"If they resort to peace, so shall you, and put your trust in GOD. He is the Hearer, the Omniscient." holy quran 8:61

"You shall resort to pardon, advocate tolerance, and disregard the ignorant." holy quran 7:199

It is thus clear that the Muslims were allowed to fight only in self-defense, to preserve their national existence, and they were forbidden to be the aggressors.

And about suicide:

"You shall spend in the cause of GOD; do not throw yourselves with your own hands into destruction. You shall be charitable; GOD loves the charitable." Holy Quran 2:195
"O you who believe, do not consume each others' properties illicitly - only mutually acceptable transactions are permitted. You shall not kill yourselves. GOD is Merciful towards you." holy quran 4:29


Hope that was helpful Chapstiquelova.

Oh I am not at all trying to be like that, and i am not saying that this IS the way of a muslim. I was asking becuz this is what the media said, And those i know.
But I appreciate u clearing that up.
See The muslims That people i know have met, Or even on Tv, Have been suitable nice people Just like any other american.
I just wanted to know if what i have heard has been acurate, Becuz it didnt seem as though it was. Which you have cleared that up!
LOL
I am a christian, So like would I be considered to be "saved " in the muslim community?
I have this question alot, Becuz we both believe in God just in different ways.
and same way with catholism i would have the same question For a catholic/Christian of catholic faith.
So this isnt just directed on Islam.
I have been curious about that.
