If you're going to quote the Quran then do so objectively & DO NOT omit things;

5:47 (Asad) Let, then, the followers of the Gospel judge in accordance with what God has revealed therein: for they who do not judge in the light of what God has bestowed from on high-it is they, they who are truly iniquitous!

47:4 (Picktall) Now when ye meet in battle those who disbelieve, then it is smiting of the necks until, when ye have routed them, then making fast of bonds; and afterward either mercy or ransom till the war lay down its burdens. That (is the ordinance). And if Allah willed He could have punished them (without you) but (thus it is ordained) that He may try some of you by means of others. And those who are slain in the way of Allah, He rendereth not their actions vain.

SEE you just quote/see what you want to subjectively & denying the truth/virtue within...be FAIR/HONEST;
1. of course in war there would be killings DUH!
2. The time for MERCY/ Ransom!
3. Until the war lay down its burdens = ends = peace/ a truce!

4:95 (Picktall) Those of the believers who sit still, other than those who have a (disabling) hurt, are not on an equality with those who strive in the way of Allah with their wealth and lives. Allah hath conferred on those who strive with their wealth and lives a rank above the sedentary. Unto each Allah hath promised good, but He hath bestowed on those who strive a great reward above the sedentary; -

STRIVE NOT FIGHT!!!!!

and yes its true we were expected to fight for Islam & God, why is that so strange! What do you call the Crusade wars against Muslims...was that NOT ordained and sanctioned by the Pope & Church!? OR WII approved by the Pope & Church as well! So its just alright for you to fight , make inquisitions, deadly missions, crusades, war for oil & NOT alright for us to fight?!!! thats an egocentric, delusional way of thinking...no wonder America is hated so much...not just Muslims, I'm travelling in Australia now & they don't stand the US at the moment! so yes, we will fight those of transgress against them for we are FEARLESS unlike your army that fights with drones and hide behind the technology! I would rather not fight but if the fight comes to us we don't back down.

here;s what really blows my mind; (a) many historians don't believe in the historical Jesus as there is NO real evidence to him (b) Jews called him a liar/fraud and tried to kill him (c) Hindu, Buddhist, Shinto & atheist don't give a damn...right?!! While (a) Mohamed is the ONLY person to support him (b) Quran is the ONLY other source to mention him (c) Muslims are the ONLY ppl that believe in JC!!!! So how come all teh hate towards us...its divide and conquer tactics of the devil!

Open your eyes...Mohamed is the last of teh prophets, Islam is the final instalment of the religions, The Quran is the final testament & last chapter

Marz

Be-headings are NOT our teachings & we don't support them Neither does Mohamed, Muslims Nor Islam! Its NOT in the Quran and is NOT practised, stop believing the lies/media!

However, with that said...do believe in the death penalty?

you're not making sense

so you're taking teh writings of FICTION, soothsayers as facts? pathetic!

you mean after he just negotiated for the release of prisoners for the soldier? Im just sating....

correction 2 billion! & he's still alive eh....you guys are too silly to take seriously

correction 2 billion Muslims, including your next door neighbour & boss...so what you gonna do?

you dont make any sense what so ever!

Well you're twice mistaken my friend...I read the Quran several times, as well as the Bible as I was previously an atheist and a none believer. I don't ever refer to the hadith as its after all, man made, much like the Bible though both perhaps are God inspired. What I get from both scriptures, the most prevailing message "do unto your brother..." and that we are all each others keepers. All true Muslims adhere to this message & most EDUCATED people know thats a FACT! So I suggest if you are truly seeking wisdom, go back and read the Quran again and see all the beautiful, peaceful advise within. After all, ALL monotheistic religions are from the SAME God...no?

well again I'm sorry you feel this way & for you as well. I guess only time will tell & by that time it would be too late to change your misguided views, at a time when even Jesus will not stand by you and your beliefs in him;

5:116 And behold! God will say: "O Jesus the son of Mary! Didst thou say unto men, worship me and my mother as gods in derogation of God.?"

5:117He will say: "Never said I to them aught except what Thou didst command me to say, to wit, 'worship God, my Lord and your Lord'; and I was a witness over them whilst I dwelt amongst them; when Thou didst take me up Thou wast the Watcher over them, and Thou art a witness to all things.

Amen
