Why are Muslim's portrayed as terrorist's in today's society?

The lack of a central figure in islam is very dangerous.

Because the suicide bomber interprets what they do as martyrdom. You don't. That's fair enough. But you can't say there isn't a problem when people who are following their interpretation of Islam do that.

Your a f....king ignoramus, the only filth around here is yourself, how brave , while you live in a society that's tolerant and reasoning. if you want to do some "destroying" why don't you join
the "jihad " in the country's whose Ideals you uphold ! Oh no that would require some integrity and bravery and your having it to good here with your comfortable life. A...hole

If someone keeps telling you something, then eventually you're going to believe it - regardless of whether its true or not. I blame the media. But rizzl8 is right, if Islam didn't exist, then they'd just find another religion to hate on.

It doesn't matter. My point was that America hasn't invaded the wrong country (like the other poster was suggesting). The fact that they had to travel to Afghanistan in order to commit acts of terrorism means that Saudi Arabia didn't harbour much opportunity fr terrorism for them.

I'll try once more.

Where in Islam is executing rape victims condoned?

Where in Islam is suicide bombing condoned?

Fine, I'll do it.



As far as I am aware, there is no direct punishment for being raped.

That said, because there are rules laid out on how to prove rape, and also how to punish adultery. A rape victim will get punished for adultery if rape cannot be proven.



Although Islam doesnt explicitly support suicide bombing, as the concept was not around at the time. It does support martyrism.


Qur'an (4:74)
Qur'an (61:10-12)

Sahih Muslim: Book 020, Number 4679
Sahih Muslim: Book 020, Number 4681

These are just a few random example of support for dying 'for the cause' or for allah. Considering that it is stated that other sins will be forgiven for such an act, then it can easily be interpreted as justifying killing for the 'cause'. It is of no difficulty to find justification of martyrism in Islam.

Fine, I'll do it.

Rape is a crime and hence dealt with and investigated the same way of any other crime. To allege rape means a woman or a man (since this can happen to men too) need to prove the incident. Given the advancement of technology and medicine today, physical examination today can show whether sexual intercourse happened by agreement or by force. To prove a particular person is he who did it, that needs DNA. There are some other proof too that can be used to support the case of the raped such as tapes, recordings, eye-witness and etc. This is, however, a matter of dispute among scholars as they consider such proof as supportive proof but not definite evidence. The majority of scholars do not accept these kind of evidence unless there is 4 witness or the rapist admits his crime. This does not mean the rapist will get away of his crime should such evidence have been presented (depending on what kind of proof is there) because though he may escape the crime of rape but he will not escape the crime of Hirabah (taking something wrongfully by force.) which can be death penalty sometimes.

These cases are complex in nature and so each case is dealt with on case by case.

The punishment is to be carried out on the rapist and there is no punishment for the woman who has been raped, whatever the case. (Imam Maalik, Al-Muwatta', Volume 2, page 734)

The central figure is the caliph.

And who is the current caliph?

As a matter of fact, it's b*ll sh**ers like you that spread hatred through pure ignorance and the world would be much better without people like you. I don't mind if you disagree with my opinion but at least don't spread BS like that. And I will repeat, so called Muslims killed 3000 in 9/11 whereas America killed 288,000 (and counting) by 2009. Who's more violent now?

Can you give me names of a couple of 'terrorists' that were killed by these drone attacks apart from women and children? .

Give me names of a couple of countries that America has attacked which has given a good result. Let's see, Libya was a wonderful place and now is a dump. Syria was fine and is slowly becoming a dump. Afghanistan was fine and now more and more people are dying. More people died due to Westerners invading Iraq than how many they claimed Saddam Hussain had killed. Iran is having a hard time even treating their patients in hospitals because of US imposed sanctions. .

You're giving the example of what happened in Pakistan. How could the Pakistanis have handed over Bin Laden when he wasn't even there? .

It's not like Americans didn't wipe out an entire nation to sit on their land and it's not like the early Europeans started the slave trade which involved many kind of tortures for Black people. Imperialism is in their history.

There isn't a current caliph.

Was pointing out that a caliph is a central figure in Islam.

So at the moment, There is no central figure.

The USA has killed very very few innocent people in the Middle East. The USA is helping stabilize the Middle East.

The USA has killed very very few innocent people in the Middle East. The USA is helping stabilize the Middle East. They should be thanking us, not killing us. They need to stop killing innocent Americans.

BTW, Lets not forget that Usama Bin Laden was originally trained by the CIA to fight Russia. Hence it is arguable that they bought it on themselves. As well as this, it is important to point out that if they were prepared to 'unleash' Usama Bin Laden on Russia, then in a way, serves them right in every sense that they were attacked. What goes around comes around.

1. As a result of muslim's crimes? Do these people follow Islam or go against it? I have explained many times on this forum that this is contradictory to their announced religion. 2. Your post just reinforced my statement about naivety. 3. What's to say that these attacks are actually caused by such criminal organisations? One needs only to see the map and mark off the countries that are in conflict, they all surround Saudi Arabia rather conveniently. The only country that resisted is Iran. There is, quite blatantly, more than meets the eye. This was posted from The Student Room's iPhone/iPad App

Then you are truly a testament to the awful state of public education.
