Each and every human being in this world is not in favour of maintaining peace and harmony. There are many, who would disrupt it for their own vested interests. Sometimes force has to be used to maintain peace. It is precisely for this reason that we have the police who use force against criminals and anti-social elements to maintain peace in the country. Islam promotes peace. At the same time, Islam exhorts it followers to fight where there is oppression. The fight against oppression may, at times, require the use of force. In Islam force can only be used to promote peace and justice
Dr. Joseph Adam Pearson rightly says, "People who worry that nuclear weaponry will one day fall in the hands of the Arabs, fail to realize that the Islamic bomb has been dropped already, it fell the day MUHAMMED (pbuh) was born".

Religion Islam has introduced violence to this world, freedom of speech for women was curtailed, multiple marriage was approved, the promise of 72 virgins for a jihadist in itself is idiotic as no one knows what lies after death, honor killing, killing women by stoning, cutting body parts, maiming, etc was all introduced by Mohammad s O b the world will change, lots and lots of good people in this dirty religion will change, it is written in our Puranas that the evil will rule the globe for few decades and after that the same evil people will change and become true Hindus and there will be ever lasting peace in this world, before that there will be destruction caused by these evil forces , that is evident today.

You are right, Muhammed turned civilised arabs into barbaric muslim invaders.
Every Muslim should be a terrorist. A terrorist is a person who causes terror. The moment a robber sees a policeman he is terrified. A policeman is a terrorist for the robber. Similarly every Muslim should be a terrorist for the antisocial elements of society, such as thieves, dacoits and rapists. Whenever such an anti-social element sees a Muslim, he should be terrified. It is true that the word ‘terrorist’ is generally used for a person who causes terror among the common people. But a true Muslim should only be a terrorist to selective people i.e. anti-social elements, and not to the common innocent people. In fact a Muslim should be a source of peace for innocent people.
All religions basically exhort mankind to be righteous and eschew evil. But Islam goes beyond that. It guides us towards practical ways of achieving righteousness and eliminating evil from our individual and collective lives. Islam takes into account human nature and the complexities of human society. Islam is guidance from the Creator Himself. Therefore, Islam is also called the Deen-ul-Fitrah (the natural religion of Man).
Islam prescribes method of eliminating robbery
All major religions teach that theft is an evil act. Islam teaches the same. So what is the difference between Islam and the other religions? The difference lies in the fact that Islam, besides teaching that robbing is evil, shows a practical way of creating a social structure in which people will not rob.
Islam prescribes Zakaat
Islam prescribes a system of Zakaat (obligatory annual charity). Islamic law prescribes that every person who has a saving that exceeds the nisaab level i.e. more than 85 grams of gold, should give 2.5% of that saving every lunar year in charity. If every rich person in the world gave Zakaat sincerely, poverty will be eradicated from this world. Not a single human being would die of hunger.
Chopping off the hands as punishment for robbery
Islam prescribes chopping off the hands of the convicted robber. The Glorious Qur’an says in Surah Maidah:
"As to the thief, male or female, cut off his or her hands:a punishment by way

Islam prescribes method of eliminating molestation and rape
All the major religions declare the molestation and rape of women as grave sins. Islam teaches the same. What then is the difference between Islam and the other religions? The difference lies in the fact that Islam does not merely preach respect for women, or abhor molestation and rape as serious crimes, but also gives clear guidance as to how society can eliminate such crimes

Despite all talks, Muslims are always invaders & curb women emotions world over... why?
Please do not put hate messages on board. If you can learn something constructive from discussion its fine. But if we end up hurting each others feelings, we are waisting time, spreading hatred. Excuse me for telling that all the people discussion religion are most ignorant and least religious people of all. They know nothing of their own religion. You want to spread religion spread it with in your self. Make your beliefs more strong, and love for god more discreat with in. Dont bother about the rest of world, as it is run by some well else sitting a top.

My Dear friend, Please read well about sharia, and Rape is not tolerable or appreciable in any Relegion. Once it confirmed Sharia have clear punishment for both. In every relegion & every society some good & bad people are there. so, don't calculate the percentage. Think for how to minimize this offence. This all happens because of todays Modern & Ultra Modern Woman's Freedom.
who cares , he was a despot dictator who ruined his own country and made life miserable for India too.
these are the parasites living of the terror state created by Jinnah, hope the people of Pakistan realise they are just a tool for hatred politics. or we can say that some people never learn.
Listen guys.. No matter who you think you are, no matter what you do, keep one freaking thing in your mind.. Muslims have been assigned the job of making the world ONE. I mean a unipolar world all painted GREEN. So phases like these come.. And GO AS WELL. We dont need to worry. When one Zarqawi gets killed, some 1000 others volunteer.. So i don't see any point in wasting time writing all this on rediff. Muslims would do what they have in mind, NO MATTER WHAT. Why not take a shower and chill. Or hit d pillow . Peace.
