People who blame Islam...
by imran patel on Aug 30, 2007 08:09 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

For people who blame Islam for all the terrorism and the wars...I have one Question...

Was the world and humanity living in perfect harmony before the birth of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) ?

If that was the case, I would agree that Islam is the problem. But History tells us otherwise.

The world had been living in partial harmony with direct wars between people. But once the Islam came istead of warfare we have terrorism and now terrorism become the religious property of Islam

I agree with you. Islam, or for that matter any religion, should not be blamed for violence. Problem lies with us, human beings.

What I think is -
1 - It is not the religion, it is the awareness of people. Here incase of Islam, people are buly cause of orthodox nature of the religion which did not change with time.
2 - Though I am a Hindu, I think Muslim guys are more patriotic comparing to Hindus. Hindus are not that much aggresive in any case neither it is terror act nor patriotism. In other sense we can say hindus have changed themselves with the time. Which may be due to the unrigidness of the religion.
3 - Illitracy is the root cause of all. Which leads to all other causes like - Population growth, poverty and many more. And so these people are easily biased.

It is time we should pin point the cause and start nurturing, instead of wondering for the false Mandir/Maszid issues.

Thank U.

Well, I don't think its that simple. I'm not against Islam or any other religion, but I study them as theological subjects.
Can you tell me any other religion in which an entire country is run in accordance with the laws written in a ten hundres yrs old book? I feel Islam couldn't change change with time.

Example of Islam is like kernel of any OS. As time forwards new GUIs will come but the core kernel remains same. Similarly Islam or Quran provides a framework which is capable of running any aspect of life till the judgement day.

Because People are very much away from god and its commandments. There is no real-belief, real-fear of god in them.

Because people are NOT following ISLAM. Islam says that the murder of an innocent (Muslim or a Non-Muslim) is like murdering the entire HUMANITY. Now that is ISLAM. Is a terrorist following ISLAM. In my humble opinion...NO
