dear friends,

lets use some common sense shall we. if i wanted to know about christianity i would not ask a muslim, or a jew. hence if you want to know about islam ask a MUSLIM. but not just any muslim, a practicing muslim who has common sence and knowledge.

1. none of the suicide bombers or terrorist have true knowledge of islam. if you want true knowledge ASK A SCHOLAR. and the scholars will tell you suicide bombers and terrorists are NOT muslims.

just like a person who calls himself christian will not have better knowledge than a priest.

2. islam is against suicide because prophet Muhammad has said when the day of judgement nears, suicides will increase. (which they have)

3. Islam IS a religion of peace, because the Quran says "whoever kills an innocent soul, it is as if he has killed the whole of humanity, and whoever saves an innocent soul it is as if he has saved the whole of humanity" (look in the quraan if you dont believe me)

I am a student here in the UK, and last semester i studied the media. DID YOU KNOW THE WHOLE OF THE MEDIA ARE OWNED BY ONLY A FEW SELECT GROUP OF PEOPLE. who by the way are not lower, but UPPER or MIDDLE class.

you only see what they want you to see, you only do what they want you to do.

i have never been part of terrorism and neither is that part of islam. if it was i wouldnt be a part of this religion no way.

i hope all of you will seek the truth, and think independently. i know there are people who have knowledge and are not stereotypical in portraying what the media want you to think.
