LIES

What lies. Islam promotes people of all colours and races to live together in peace....nothing in Islam has ever taught that black people are devils...what lies...i mean I am not at all racist...I have black, white, chinese friends and what has always taught me equality and love between people is my religion: Islam. One of the biggest most respected companions of the prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was a black slave man called Bilal who was beloved to the prophet as a companian and friend. So I really cant imagine whether someone is giving you wrong information or if youre making these things up to lie about islam so people think bad of it. I know if Islam ever taught me that black people are less than white or others or that you should kill etc etc, I would not want to be a muslim that day. My reason for beig a muslim is that I see the truth and logic in it that no other religion teaches or has.

I dont know what that comment is about christians forced to wear blue and jews made to wear yellow...I have never read or heard anything like that in Islam...i dont know if youre purposefully making things up or what....I have read the Quran cover to cover with translation, it does not teach any killings or anything anywhere.!!!

Secondly muslims believe in the Bible, Torah and the Quran. All books were revealed by God and sent to messengers....
