Don't believe me, do not believe them

Hi,

Don't believe me, do not believe them, read the kuran and the explanation of the context and the real meaning of the verses. Every verse is related to a certain event that happened in the past we cant understand the verse unless we understand the historical facts.

I said that muslims are not allowed to kill people for the simple reason that they are not muslims.

You named many people who beleive that killing civilians is a way of jihad. You did not mention any verse from the koran that says or supports that. Even these people they can't find such an argument in the holy kuran to support their acts. All they use is their own opinions. in islam there is no fatwa unless it is supported by koranic and authentic hadiths as proof. It is not allowed for muslims to accept or follow any fatwa from what ever source unless it has what supports it from the holy texts because in islam there is no holly people.
