Muslims are free

...First off, for the person who denied the Quraan and that every surah has some kind of violence to people who are non muslim. you have to think of the context of that time. this is when the Meccan people were raping the Muslims and killing them. so Allah referred to them as non muslims. it is not the non muslims of the whole human kind. Allah Commands to make a treaty with the non muslims. to create peace with in a society. so that the non muslims may learn about the religion of islam. and if they do injustice to the muslims which they did back in the time of Prophet muhammad. and they also took an army and marched into their city of peace. the muslims did not fight back because until it was revealed in the Quran that fighting back against them would fall in the category of Jihaad.

And to the person who said that Muslims are only muslims because of fear and if that they convert they would die. well the truth is if a muslim converts to another religion he will be hurt some day. he would be hurt on the day of judgement as his body enters the hell fire. that is why there is never a muslim who converts to any other religion. it is because of fear. fear of allah and the day of judgement. have any of you ever talked to a christian who converted to a muslim. because there are over 5 million of them that converted last year. some are big names such as malcolm x. why don't you read his auto biography and read about what he has to say about islam. read about how islam changed his life from being a black supremist to being a peace lover. have you ever seen a muslim convert to anyother religon. no because they know Islam is the true relgion. and any other convert that converted to islam knows islam is the true religion and they will never revert.
