Does Islam has anything to do with the terrorism in this world?

www.prophetofdoom.net\nLook at the quotes, then download a copy of the Koran and look them up in context to be sure.  Look at Muhammed's own words on the subject.  If he's lying about his own religion, they are in real trouble.\nDon't even confuse Islam with a religion of peace.\nFew religions are religions of peace (Buddhism comes darn close).\nMost religions have gone through a reformation or two and don't take their Holy Books so seriously.  When was the last time you saw a Christian stone someone as it says in the Bible.\nIslam still hasn't been through a reformation of the sort I'm referring to and takes it's book quite literally.  Remember that the terrorism of the attack on the Twin Towers was cheered by more than 70% of Islam!  There was partying in the streets!\n\nRead Muhammud's own words on it.  Believe Muhammed.

Not even close. The reason for 9/11 is that radical muslim terrorists view all non-muslims as infidels that need to be wiped off the face of the earth. This was just ONE attack in that plan!

It is true that most of the terrorists,thives,dacoits are  muslims.It is the fault of their religious leaders because they used to spread  violence in the name of their religion.

No it will only embolden terrorists. Islam is a very aggressive religion. Of all of the wars/conflicts in the world, something like 95% of the at least ONE if not BOTH sides are Muslim. If you read about what people are doing to innocent women and children in places like Algeria, Sudan, Indonesia in the name of Islam(cutting the throats of whole families if they don't observe Islam as devoutly as they should, burn torture to enslaved christian children if they refuse to learn Islam, etc....)

- there is no terrorist in world if no one intercept others life.\n- terrorism is really propagated by the bad policians of Americans and Europeans by means of hatred other religions particularly by suppressing muslims and the growth of their country.\n- terrorism really has no religion and terrorist activities is not belongs to a particular religion any more.\n- In any way Terrorism is acceptable.\n- The Americans and socalled "christian club"(europeans) alongwith Israel is in the bloody tug-of-war with Islam and creating Islamin terrorist world wide.\n- The Media which entirely controlled by the socalled and Americans and Europeans is portraiting as terrorist whoever talking against them. \n- But the real terrors are gaining their horrified terrorism as legal and legitimising it by cheating and paralysing billions of peoples on the earth.\n- Any Americans and Europeans have the right to use Neuclear power but no muslim countries. If some try to acquire then the country portrayed as "Axis of Evil" nations and spread terrorism.\n- They have rights to kill hundreds of thousands of innocent peoples including Infants, women in the name of war and in the name of spreading democracy.\n- What rights they have to spread their own culture to other nations..?\n- If they really help other nations and their people then no one will intend to raise slogans like "DEATH TO AMERICA".\n- Because the love is the great.\n- The drive towards "war against terror" is actually seems to be planned to spread terrorism worldwide and creating more terrors everywhere.\n- Because, now they got great chances to say and prove that Islam is preaching terrorism and Muslims are terrors, and so they can intrude and occupy any countries, suppress their people and growth in the name of Economic Sanctions and more.\n- They can achieve innocent peoples support through the misleading television media and make them to believe Islam is unrequired danger to the world.\n- Is this activities is not the Terrorism or more than that...?... what do you think.\n- There is really peaceful world when Americans and Europeans stop portraying other religions are harmful and avoiding the tendency to suppress other nations from their technological growth.\n- There is really peaceful world when Americans and Europeans stop intruding and RESPECTING the culture of other nations legitimate rights.\n- I dont want to say more... there is no terrorist and terrirism if Americans and Europeans mind their own business.\n- Why they always Americans and Europeans being the Hidden and Real threat to the Peaceful World...and being the real "Axis of Evil(Satan)"?\n- I never support terrorism.\n- Terrorism cannot be justified at any form.\n- Innocent people, let them be any religion, should not be allowed to suffer at any cost.\n- But remember the real Criminals are they who force innocent people to involve in terrism activities.\n- Let refine their (Americans and Europeans) interest on other nations.\n- Respect them.\n- Dont suppress other nations growth.\n- Dont let them push and force their own culture on other nations.\n- Stop wars on other nations.\n- Stop killing innocent people, children and women in the name of war. And dont create terrorist anymore.\n- Do you still think these activities are not terrorism. \n- And dont forget whoever talking about Americans and Europeans are portrayed as "enemies" "Terrorism breeding nations" and "Axis of Evil countries".... think how stupid the logic behind it... and when ordinary peoples can understand it....?\n-------------------

Poverty has little to do with terrorism. Osama Bin Laden was rather wealthy. It's the radical fundamentalists who believe that those who do not believe in the same things do not deserve to live. Many islamic terrorists are against The United States because we are seen as bullies who back Isreal and its policies. But don't forget it's not just those in the muslim world that are terrorists. Don't forget Oklahoma City. There are many terrorist groups right here on American soil.

Not all muslims are terrorists but almost all terrorists are muslims.  There are about 140 armed conflicts going on in the world today and muslims are involved in every one of them.  Definitely not a peaceful religion.

Terrorism is not spacific to religion.  All people are capable of terrorism.

I wish, but the answer is NO. The relationship between Islam and poverty is cause and effect...Islam CAUSES poverty...many people confuse the order.

simply ... by watching the world. i knew muslims, i have muslims friends and they are not terrorists. like me, millions. but 90% of all bomb attacks killing hundreds are muslims, this can be seens in all news. and like me, millions are wathing the news. so "all the muslims are not terrorist but all (the majority of) the terrorist are muslims" came in existance simply by observing the sorrounding world .... maybe drinking a beer in pub with friends ... and then the "great minds" of the world said this in tv shows and big reviews and voila ... what incredibly remark they made .. bla bla ... they had stolen the people's words

Probably. Islam is a very aggressive religion. Of all of the wars/conflicts in the world, something like 95% of the at least ONE if not BOTH sides are Muslim. If you read about what people are doing to innocent women and children in places like Algeria, Sudan, Indonesia in the name of Islam it's bad(cutting the throats of whole families if they don't observe Islam as devoutly as they should, burn torture to enslaved christian children if they refuse to learn Islam, etc....)

Absolutely not.  Islam is being used as a scapegoat because people want someone to blame and it's easier to group an entire religion together.  It's not the religion, it's a sect of people within the religion.\n\nYes, many of the people committing terrorist acts are Islamic, that does not make the religion one of terrorism.  Islam is very similar to Judiasm, Chrisitianity and most religions, really, in that it focuses on love.  The love between Allah and His people as well as love among all people.\n\nBut like all religions, it gets twisted.  People take what they want and create their own perverts interpretations.  But the true nature of Islam is one of love.

I think terrorism is the result of violence, and for most people violence can only be answered with more violence: terrorist acts. For example if you drop bombs in a country, and invade a foreign country, you can only expect more violence in return, so the only way to stop violence is not to use it as a way of changing the world.

Its just a bad conotation that is associated with the religion as each terrorist cites their source of inspiration being Muslim. Plus Muslim cultures try to protect their way of life by rejecting and hating western society.

Islam had nothing to do with the sept.11 issue.\n\nIslam is a world religion founded by the Prophet Muhammad. Founded in the 7th cent., Islam is the youngest of the three monotheistic world religions (with Judaism and Christianity). An adherent to Islam is a Muslim [Arab.,=one who submits].\n\nBelievers Worldwide\n\nThere are more than 1 billion Muslims worldwide, fewer than one fifth of whom are Arab. Islam is the principal religion of much of Asia, including Indonesia (which has the world's largest Muslim population), Malaysia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Iran, Iraq, Syria, Jordan, the Arabian Peninsula states, and Turkey. India also has one of the world's largest Muslim populations, although Islam is not the principal religion there. In Africa, Islam is the principal religion in Egypt, Algeria, Tunisia, Djibouti, Gambia, Guinea, Libya, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Niger, Senegal, Somalia, and Sudan, with sizable populations also in Chad, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Ghana, Tanzania (where the island of Zanzibar is predominantly Muslim), and Nigeria.\n\nIn Europe, Albania is predominantly Muslim, and, historically, Bulgaria, Bosnia, Macedonia, and Georgia have had Muslim populations. Elsewhere in Europe, immigrant communities of Muslims from N Africa, Turkey, and Asia exist in France, Germany, and Great Britain. In the Americas the Islamic population has substantially increased in recent years, both from conversions and the immigration of adherents from other parts of the world. In the United States, the number of Muslims has been variably estimated at 2—6 million; 20% of the population of Suriname is Muslim.\n\nIslamic Beliefs\n\nAt the core of Islam is the Qur'an, believed to be the final revelation by a transcendent Allah [Arab.,=the God] to Muhammad, the Prophet of Islam; since the Divine Word was revealed in Arabic, this language is used in Islamic religious practice worldwide. Muslims believe in final reward and punishment, and the unity of the umma, the "nation" of Islam. Muslims submit to Allah through arkan ad-din, the five basic requirements or "pillars" : shahadah, the affirmation that "there is no god but God, and Muhammad is the Messenger of God" ; salah, the five daily ritual prayers (see liturgy, Islamic); zakat, the giving of alms, also known as a religious tax; Sawm, the dawn-to-sunset fast during the lunar month of Ramadan; and hajj, the pilgrimage to Mecca. The importance of the hajj can hardly be overestimated: this great annual pilgrimage unites Islam and its believers from around the world.\n\nThe ethos of Islam is in its attitude toward Allah: to His will Muslims submit; Him they praise and glorify; and in Him alone they hope. However, in popular or folk forms of Islam, Muslims ask intercession of the saints, prophets, and angels, while preserving the distinction between Creator and creature. Islam views the Message of Muhammad as the continuation and the fulfillment of a lineage of Prophecy that includes figures from the Hebrew Scriptures and the New Testament, notably Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, and Jesus. Islamic law reserves a communal entity status for the ahl al-kitab, People of the Book, i.e., those with revealed religions, including Jews and Christians. Islam also recognizes a number of extra-biblical prophets, such as Hud, Salih, Shuayb, and others of more obscure origin. The chief angels are Gabriel and Michael; devils are the evil jinn.\n\nOther Islamic obligations include the duty to "commend good and reprimand evil," injunctions against usury and gambling, and prohibitions of alcohol and pork. Meat is permitted if the animal was ritually slaughtered; it is then called halal. Jihad, the exertion of efforts for the cause of God, is a duty satisfied at the communal and the individual level. At the individual level, it denotes the personal struggle to be righteous a

islam is not only against the west, but against the east, north, south and middle, anyone who is not-islamic is subject to war by islam, 9/11 is simply one of thousands of muslim terror attacks that occur on a world wide basis.\nWhen islam began is when this war began 1400 years ago, long before the usa ever exsisted. \nas for your hint, islam did 9/11 and islam is attacking all the non-islamic people. \nAnd as for all those "peacefull" muslims.. well they simply do NOTHING to stop what is going on.

Islam is the fastest growing religion in America and the world. The increase rate in Islam in the past 50 years was 235%, a lot more than any faith.\n\nSo the big question is: Isn't it ironic that Muslims are getting called terrorist and yet, more people are becoming Muslim daily than any other? Why is that? \n\nSo one issue is definitely overcoming stereotypes and  trying to balance Muslim morals in a society where morals are lacking.\n\nOne big contemporary issue although it may seem hidden is the Muslim youth because they are in a sense alienated from the 'elders' and then want to fit in with their friends at school. Ultimately they need to find a balance. \n\nI think that's a general principle: trying to find a balance in everything including, especially, Life itself.
