I have to agree with Imran. One billion ppl don't practice Islam because it's a religion of hate. It's a religion of peace that promotes tolerance and love. Islam is not so different from Judaism or Christianity. All three are Abrahamic religions, that believe that Jesus (Peace Be Upon Him) should be honoured and respected. They all have the same ten commandments, and believe in God. Allah (SWT) is simply the Arabic name for 'god'. Look at the similarities... it's a progression.

4:82. Why do they not study the Quran carefully? If it were from other than GOD, they would have found in it numerous contradictions.

Whoever kills another one without justifiable cause, surely he is killing all of humanity. And whoever saves the life of another one, surely he saves the lives of all of humanity. [Sura Al Ma'aidah: Ayah 32]

Hold to forgiveness, command what is right; but turn away from the ignorant." [7:199]

"Have patience with what they say, and leaves them with noble (dignity)." [73:10]

"And the servants of Allah . . . are those who walked on the earth in humility, and when the ignorant address them, they say 'Peace'" [25:63]

"Allah is with those who restrain themselves." [16: 128]
