Terrorism in view of Islam

According to the language, terrorism is the use of violence to instill fear, in an attempt to achieve a goal (especially political objectives), while the terrorist is a person who uses violence to create fear (usually for political purposes).

Islam is a religion which Allah approves, as a guide for mankind in achieving happiness in the world we are living now, and happiness in the life hereafter.

Allah has sent Prophet Muhammad with the religion of Islam to mankind as a mercy, and it is a great pleasure for humans not to bring destruction and disaster. Allah says:

Alanbiya 107

And We have sent thee not but as a mercy for all peoples. (Quran Sura Al-Anbiya:108)

From this verse, we can conclude that Islam is not a religion but aimed at undermining Islam is a good religion for all men according to the noble attitude of the Prophet Muhammad.

If someone claiming Muslims do terror and mischief that harms others, it does not mean Islam religion of terror but the people that have committed terror, and Islam itself hates terror even the person should be punished.

If many criminals come from diverse Muslim-majority nation, we can not claim that in Islam a lot of criminals. Because it can also occur in the predominantly Christian or Buddhist, which of course criminals from the country will be mostly Christian or Buddhist.

Inappropriate they call infidels against brother and his own family. If your (non-Muslims) claim these people as terrorists, Islam also considers them as terrorists, so Islam is not synonymous with terrorists.

Islam is a sacred religion of peace and love. In the teachings of Islam act of terrorism itself prohibited even threatened with a painful punishment for the perpetrators.

If there are Muslims who commit terror and to do a variety of damage that harms others, these people do not actually understand the true teachings of Islam. They are still terrorists even utter the phrase Allahu Akbar and claiming to represent Islam.

Concept of God (Part II)

Dr. Zakir Abdul-Karim Naik - President, IRF ( http://irf.net ) Unity of God Some polytheists argue by saying that the existence of more than one God is not illogical. Let us point out to them that if there were more than one God, they would dispute with one another, each god trying to fulfill his will against the will of the other gods. This can be seen in the mythology of the polytheistic and pantheistic religions. If a ‘God’ is defeated or unable to defeat the others, he is surely not the one true God. Also popular among polytheistic religions is the idea of many Gods, each having different responsibilities. Each one would be responsible for a part of man’s existence e.g. a Sun-God, a Rain-God, etc. This indicates that one ‘God’ is incompetent of certain acts and moreover he is also ignorant of the other Gods’ powers , duties, functions and responsibilities. There cannot be an ignorant and incapable God. If there were more than one God it would surely lead to co...

The Ability to See The Signs of God

Say: "Praise be to God. He will show you His Signs and you will recognize them. Your Lord is not heedless of anything you do." (Surat an-Naml: 93) In today's society, people assess the Qur'an very differently from what is the real purpose of its revelation. In the Islamic world, in general, very few people know the contents of the Qur'an. Some Muslim people often hang the Qur'an on the walls of their houses within a decorative cover and elderly people read it from time to time. They assume that the Qur'an protects those who read it from "misfortune and trouble". According to this superstition, they consider the Qur'an a sort of amulet against misfortunes. The Qur'anic verses, however, inform us that the purpose of the Qur'an's revelation is entirely different from what is mentioned above. For instance, in the 52nd verse of Surah Ibrahim, God states:"This is a communication to be transmitted to mankind so that they can...
