Al Jazeera Poll Destroys The Myth Of The Tiny Minority Of Extremists by jimmynauty: 11:50am On Jun 17, 2015 |
When jihadists attacked the World Trade Center, politicians and the media assured us that extremists represent only a tiny minority of Muslims, and that nearly all Muslims support peace, tolerance, democracy, etc. After terrorist attacks in Spain, Great Britain, Russia, and so on, world leaders and news networks continued to proclaim that only a tiny minority of Muslims have radical views. (These extremists, of course, just need jobs.) http://www.aljazeera.net/votes/pages?voteid=5270 http://www.answeringmuslims.com/2015/05/al-jazeera-poll-destroys-myth-of-tiny.html Google this "ALJAZEERA POLL ON ISIS" and you will see wonders! cc:all muslim that claim islam is religion of peace and the minority muslims are extremist

There is NOTHING peaceful about Islam. Look at their history. It has been spread by blood and sustained by blood. I think their definition of peace is BLOOD SHED. 3 Likes |

There is no way you can be a good muslim without having sympathy for islamic terror organisations as the terrorists are only practising the sunnah of their cursed prophet. |

jimmynauty: Muslims know isis is doing exactly what the fake prophet mohammed did in his time i think al jezzera were playing smart to put the poll only in their arabic site... cant find it in their english site Death in the cause of Allah's will is encouraged, supported and promoted as well as fully endorsed in Islam. No muslim can refute this, if (s)he does this then (s)he contradicts and disowns the quran. Let's look at some quran verses and one or two narratives from the hadiths, sahih muslim and sahih burhari, 2 of the most respected and authenticated sources in Islam. The Qur'an: Qur'an (4:74)-"Let those fight in the way of Allah who sell the life of this world for the other. Whoso FIGHTETH IN THE WAY OF Allah, BE HE SLAIN or be he victorious, on him WE SHALL BESTOW A VAST REWARD" Qur'an (9:111)-"Allah hath purchased of the believers their persons and their goods; for theirs (in return) is the garden (of Paradise): they fight in His cause, AND SLAY AND ARE SLAIN: a promise binding on Him in truth, through the Law, the Gospel, and the Qur'an: and who is more faithful to his covenant than Allah? then rejoice in the bargain which ye have concluded: that is the achievement supreme." Qur'an (2:207)-"And there is the type of man who GIVES HIS LIFE to earn the pleasure of Allah..." Qur'an (61:10-12)"O ye who believe! Shall I lead you to a bargain that will save you from a grievous Penalty? That ye believe in Allah and His Messenger, and that ye strive (your utmost) in the Cause of Allah, with your property and your persons: That will be best for you, if ye but knew! He will forgive you your sins, and admit you to Gardens beneath which Rivers flow, and to beautiful mansions in Gardens of Eternity: that is indeed the Supreme Achievement." This verse was given at the battle Uhud and uses the Arabic word, Jihad. The dark-eyed virgins are mentioned in several places as well, including verses 44:54 and 52:20. For those who swing the other way, there are"perpetual youth"verse6:17, otherwise known as"boys"verses52:24and76:19. Qur'an (17:33)"And do not kill the soul which Allah has forbidden, EXCEPT BY RIGHT" An important verse that is used by Muslims to not only justify their own deaths, but that of other bystanders who might be believers as well. Like we saw 2days ago when the Muslims in Paris killed a muslim police officer in their quest to avenge their prophet. The end justifies the means, with the goal being the defeat of the kafir, their submission and finally the establishment of Islamic rule. Qur'an 3:151 Soon shall we cast TERROR into the hearts of the unbelievers, for that they joined companion with Allah... Mohammed was the original terrorist. Qur'an 8:89 And fight with them until there is no more filna(disorder, unbelief) and religion should be only for Allah This is just a little taste of the evil commands in the quran which encourages persecutions, intolerance and prejudice. Now From the Hadith: Bukhari (52:54)- The words of Muhammad:"I would love to be martyred in Allah's Cause and then get resurrected and then get martyred, and then get resurrected again and then get martyred and then get resurrected again and then get martyred." This is why modern-day Jihadists often say that they love death. Muslim (20:4678) - During the battle of Uhud, Muhammad was desperate to push men into battle. He promised paradise for those who would martyr themselves, prompting a young man who was eating dates to throw them away and rush to his death. Muslim (20:4655) - A man asks Muhammad "which of men is the best?" Muhammad replies that it is the man who is always ready for battle and flies into it "seeking death at places where it can be expected." (Tellingly perhaps, the next most saintly man in Islam is the hermit who lives in isolation "sparing men from his mischief." Muslim (20:4681) - "Surely, the gates of Paradise are under the shadows of the swords." After hearing Muhammad say that martyrdom leads to paradise, a young man pulls his sword and breaks the sheath (indicating that he has no intention of returning) then flings himself into battle until he is killed. Muslim (20.4635) - "Nobody who enters Paradise will (ever like to) return to this world even if he were offered everything on the surface of the earth (as an inducement) except the martyr who will desire to return to this world and be killed ten times for the sake of the great honour that has been bestowed upon him." 1 Like 1 Share |

Most religions call for the obliteration of those that do not agree with their creed. |

mmsen: Possibly, dunno, but quite a few are peaceable. Who would you rather have as a neighbor, a fundie xtian or a fundie Buddhist? The suggestion that all religions are equally harmful is a myth, clearly. Islam sits in the VIP section of the cancer luminaries. Considering their numbers they need to be addressed, and realistically. Just as xtianity needed to be addressed at a point in time in Europe (and obviously should be addressed here now). Hand waving is not an option Actually, not even sure Islam can be reformed, as uncle mo, well..... 3 Likes |

wiegraf: I didn't say that all were equally harmful but the idea that one group of people have the answers to all of life's questions and that anyone else is inferior is the foundation for many a conflict. As to your question about who is more dangerous between the fundamentalist Xtian or the Buddhist - that depends very much on which corner of the world you reside in. Many a non-Buddhist has been slaughtered in south east Asia by Buddhist nutcases. What religious groups call 'reform' usually amounts to ignoring the more inconvenient aspects of the religious texts - when was the last time you heard a Xtian minister speak out against usury for example? Personally I don't want any of them to reform - all self-proclaiming religious sheep should be made to follow every tenet of their religion. Let them deal with the inconvenience of their ignorance to the fullest. |

mmsen: I'll note some selfishness might be both of helpful and unavoidable while adhering to a worldview, but fully agree it's a -if not the most prevalent then somewhere thereabouts - cause of conflict on this rock Second paragraph is true as well, but the point is it's a hell of a lot more difficult to justify say murder using vanilla Buddhism than xtianity. Same applies to xtanity contrasted to Islam (at least NT), etc etc Even secular humanists commit crimes, no? Can they justify it using humanistic principles? I think not. Muslims, on the other, just need to point to numerous hadith's and the Koran, and they do Last 2 paragraphs, wouldn't all us bystanders love that? Watching the hypocrites fluff about? But realistically, we cant always allow for that. If Islam in today's world is allowed to roam about then.... Isis. They're not exactly harmless neighbors. And theres no guaranty of an implosion within Islam even if it's adherents witness it's folly in all its glory. Polls like this one suggest that. Brainwashing is deep in these folk 1 Like |
