Islam was not spread by sword

Dear Donvan,

Even non-muslim scholars have written that it is a myth that Islam was spread by sword. Tell me which muslim army had ever landed in Indonesia, none, yet it is the biggest muslim country population wise. In the most modern world of your USA, WHO IS FORCING AMERICANS TO ACCEPT ISLAM. Why is the Isalm fastest spreading religion of the world. Because, it offers solution to humanity. This is the last and final message of the creator. It is promise of Allah ,any one who will strive to get the right message I will open the doors for him.

Dear Donvan, read Quran with unbaised mind and also the life of Muhammad(PBUH), do in depth research yourself, watch " Peace TV". Allah will show you the right path.

I can only pray for you. I keep telling you to meet some Americans who have accepted Islam. Ask them how they feel after becoming muslim and why have they accepted Islam.

Regards,

Hamid
