If guessing is correct, your another name is Proud India and that Daniel Pipes seems to cite you as terrorism.
You indeed have abused the history of Islam, You have quoted from Tabaqat that Muhammad slaughtered the woman with a few children. However, you have abused the history of Islam in the sense that that woman was powerful that she could direct non-muslims to fight against muslims and that includes Prophet Muhammad. As she had the power to direct non-muslims and to make a plan for non-muslims to fight against muslims, she was not an ordinary woman and that shows that she was the leader, or the so-called, General in army nowadays. As she was holding a significant power to influence non-muslims to fight against muslims, she was really bad. Not only that, it also shows that she was a woman with power to direct non-muslims to fight and that was why Prophet Muhammad did the right job to slaughter her. I have a few questions to raise for your reply:
a) If your government send you to be a soldier to fight against another country, would you slaughter women soldiers in case if the government in another country cleverly call married woman with children to fight with you in the war and you know it since he publicized it to let you know?
b) You say that it is cruel to kill women with children. Howabout, men with children then. Don't tell me you would spare the lives of married men with children if your Governemnt call you to carry weapons to fight against the married men with children from another country in which your government to decide to fight with?
c) You have mentioned that Prophet Muhammad was cruel since he killed Asma. However, he did not kill her husband, Yazid Ibn Hisn Al-Khatm. Her husband could take care of the children. He did not kill her relatives and her relatives could take care of the children.
d) Now please answer me this question. Do you consider Prophet Muhammad was doing the right thing when he spared the lives of the innocent people, the children? Just answer to me, Yes, or, No, and no further explanation.
e) Do you consider a man is cruel if he spares not even the lives of children?
f) Do you consider a man is merciful if that man spares the lives of innocent people, children?
g) As Asma was killed by Muhammad, her children could still live since her children could be taken care by her husband or friends or relatives?
h) It is not justifiable to mention that Prophet Muhammad was bad since he did not trace back all his relatives, friends and her husband to kill them all.
i) If you trace back the history of China, you would discover the emperors in China were the worst since they would slaughter even the lives of children. Not only that, they would slaughterall the nine generations of that person concerned. However, Muhammad was willing to spare the lives of children.
You have abused the book of the Holy Quran. You see the word, fight, in the Holy Quran and you keep on saying that the Holy Quran is violence. You did not even examine the sentences around to give conclusion.
We, moderate muslims, do not like violence, vandalism, and etc. you keep on sending message in the comments here to encourage moderate muslims to fight and this shows that you are violent and you like to see muslims to killl non-muslims without reasoning.
You have abused the history of Islam. You simply use the year 624 to comment that Muslims were the first to start fighting. However, you did not support the truth that Muhammad began to preach to the Meccans in year 610. They were indeed persecution from Meccans to Muhammad and his followers and this occurred just after year 610 and right before year 624.. As a result of the persecution from Meccans, Muhammad began to ambush and fought against the Meccans as you have mentioned for the year 624.
The word, preaching, is mentioned in the history of Islam and you just argue that no, muslims, should not preach but fight just because the word, fight, is stated in the Holy Quran.
You tell muslims not to preach to the muslims and you're just quoting verses to want them to fight.
You indeed have mislead many muslims.
.... You have another nickname and that is Proud India.
