RE:RE:The word Islam means peace!!!

As this incident described in the Quran reveals, the fact that people do things "in the name of God" or even swear in His name, in other words that they use the kind of language designed to show themselves as very religious, does not mean that what they do is in conformity with religion. On the contrary, what they do can be quite against the will of God and the morality of religion.

This being the case, it is obvious what great sins are the murders, massacres and attacks, popularly known as “suicide attacks”, committed by terrorists. God informs us how this cruel face of terrorism will be punished in the world to come in the following verse:

"There are only grounds against those who wrong people and act as tyrants in the earth without any right to do so. Such people will have a painful punishment."(Quran, 42:42)

Terror organisations, in accordance with the ideologies they espouse, claim that their aim is to remove a government and its administrators, which they regard as illegitimate and cruel and, in so doing, that they will reach their goal of establishing a happier and more just way of life. However, this is not a realistic claim. In the Quran, in the first verses of Sura Baqara, God issues this command to those who think in this way:

"When they are told, "Do not cause corruption on the earth," they say, "We are only putting things right." No indeed! They are the corrupters, but they are not aware of it."(Quran, 2:11-12)

It is quite impossible for someone
