Everyone blaming Islam

Have you read the whole surah? Do you even know what that's talking about??? Lmao i've had enough of arguing with people who've never once sat down and read the quran properly rather than pulling up stuff they find online... can't be bothered anymore.

@Karosan
The verse you are alluding to came at a time when Muhammad(pbuh) and the Muslims were in a specific battle. "Those who have disbelieved" was not referring to all non Muslims but those who were persecuting the Muslims and who were in a war with them.
On top of that how can you say "you can't put that into context". Can you not accept that people have lives to live and have better things to do than argue with you and respond to quotes you have completely taken out of context. Not every single Muslim can put these quotes into context because not every single Muslim has studied quranic sciences and interpretations. Your previous quote was answered yet all you seem to be able to do is take more quotes out of context. Don't you understand that after a while people can no longer be bothered to answer to you.

Yeh because instead of posting a short quote how about who post the entire passage with the quote included?? More often than not it isn't implying what you think. I said I wouldn't bother arguing because 99% of the time it's futile but i'll give an example. The 'kill them where you find them' in context of the whole surah is talking about a very specific battle and even then, if you continue reading, Muhammad (pbuh) is told to forgive the wrongdoers if they have realised the consequence of their bad actions. And no by bad I don't mean being a disbeliever, the Muslims were forced out of their homelands and persecuted for their beliefs by these people.

@Peroxidation
You said "Islam is the ideology responsible for far more attacks than any other, a phenomenal amount more." No it is not. The only reason you believe that is because attacks by Islamist extremists are the most widely reported by the media. Islamist extremists constitute just 0.7% of all terrorist attacks in Europe. So no, it is not the "ideology responsible for more attacks than any other", let alone "a phenomenal amount more"

The verse after 8:12 says

8:13

That is because they opposed Allah and His Messenger. And whoever opposes Allah and His Messenger - indeed, Allah is severe in penalty.This is a direct reference to those who do not believe in Allah it does not say anywhere in this that this is not acceptable to do to non believers who are not at war with Muslims or persecuting them.

8:14

"That [is yours], so taste it." And indeed for the disbelievers is the punishment of the Fire

"Disbelievers" means anyone who does not believe in Allah it does not say "the disbelievers who attack believers". The words describe their enemies as "disbelievers" not as enemies of Islam or persecutors.

0.7% of all terror attacks? What world are you on? Give me your source.

What do you mean what world are you on. Did you have statistics before you posted what you did? No. You just jumped to conclusions because of what you see in the media. Most terrorist attacks are unreported

According to the FBI/CIA , 94% of terror attacks are commited by non muslims in 30 year period

The source is Counterfire? Left-wing ********s destroying the world with garbage is not a credible source. These people are just as responsible as the Islamists.

seeing as muslims form less than 1 per cent of usa population, thats a high incidence

@dozyrosie
If you need further proof

Jewish terrorism makes up the same % , incidence is high but doesn't change the fact they make up a small proportion of attacks.

Yes, it is an irony which is known as the "paradox of tolerance".

"Less well known is the paradox of tolerance: Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them" - Karl Popper

groups like the Front National will be offering their own solutions.

Muslim society might need to start educating the young against this radicalisation, but its unfair to put the blame on them. I don't like it when people say its Islam's fault, cause it draws in people who have done no wrong into the conflict and puts the blame on them. We cannot just rush to this "Islam is to blame" conclusion when we have so many anomalies in the form of the decent muslim people who we live and work alongside, people who had no actual connection to the event other than praying the same way to the offender. Its just mass generalisation which creates more hate. Maybe if we stopped distancing ourselves from each other and creating factions of good religion and bad religion then we can actually stop these attacks from become a culture - or maybe im just an optimistic little biyatch - cause working together is like delivering your heart to the devil these days.
