What is Misunderstood

Submitted by L (United States), Sep 23, 2005 at 21:27

In the name of Allah The Benificent The Merciful,
Jihad is a word that begets peace with all. It's when that peace is violated and some believe its to take arms with the opressor, whom ever or what ever that may be. In the Holy Quaran it teaches that a muslim is to never take the offensive unless self preservation becomes a factor. Islam is not a religion, terrorist, killers, or any other lie that you may have been told. Islam is a dean or a way of life, and we are taught that, Allah or "God" is the most high. Muhammed "peace be upon him", is the last prophet to teach the word of Allah, or"God". There is no old or new testament of the Quaran, only the dialects of the words. In other words there is only ONE!! I hope that this has cleared up some of the misunderstanding of Islam. I hope your beliefs do not create an attitude towards us muslims. PEACE
