Why are MUSLIMS REQUIRED TO "FIGHT THOSE WHO DO NOT BELIEVE IN ALLAH?"?
411463
do u know that Islam also has ordered Muslims to pay taxes ( zakat ) and the same war could be held against those Muslims who don't pay it ...\ndo u know that zakat is much more than jizziah(taxes on non Muslim) \ndo u know that Islam let non Muslim not to fight for the country as the jizziah are taken from them to protect them but on the other hand  Muslims must defend for them  and pay too!!\ndo u know that Muslims should retrocede the jizziah to non Muslim if they cant protect them??\ndo u know that jizziah is not taken from a child, a woman ,a blind , old people , priests ,poor people or any one who cant fight in a war like mad people or any ill one?\nour religion is the religion of justice ... i want to tell every one that when amr ibn el as(a muslim leader) went to Egypt the people of Egypt helped him to get rid of the romans because the roman government ,which followed another Christian belief than the Orthodox ,  persecuted the egyptions.

I UNCONDITIONALLY CONDEMN the people who did these actions, Islam is a religion for the good of people. They're not Muslims, but mad people who interpret Qur'anic texts at their desires.\nNoble Qur'an's say on this:\n\nAl-Baqara 2:224  " And make not God's name an excuse in your oaths to not making good and acting piously, and making PEACE in mankind.."\n\nAl-Nisa 4:90 "....So if they withdraw from you and fight not against you, and offered you PEACE, then God opened NO WAY for you AGAINST them"\n\nAl-Hijr 15:52 "When they entered unto him, they said "Peace!" "\n\nAl-Qassas 28:55 "And when they (The pious) here the vain talk, they withdraw from it and say: "To us our deeds, and to you your deeds. PEACE  be to you, we seek not the ignorant"\n\nAl-Hujurat 49: 9 " And if two groups or parties among believers fall to fighting, then make PEACE between them.."\n\nAnd many more!!

Because all they need is a tiny bit of incentive to go off on a killing spree.  And it works doesn't it?  Look how so many came out condemning the cartoons in order to pacify the radicals.  Every time they go off the deep end, the rest of the world is standing there in horror and fear then finally succumbing to siding with the extremists just so the violence stops.  It's a very effective way of silencing the masses and getting what they want.  Which is the first step in forceful conversion to Islam.

Yup all you have to do is read the Quran.  Here are some examples.\n\nKill disbelievers wherever you find them. If they attack you, then kill them. Such is the reward of disbelievers. \n\nWar is ordained by Allah. \n\nWe shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Their habitation is the Fire \n\nFor the disbelievers, We have prepared a painful doom.\n\nAllah will bestow a vast reward on those who fight in religious wars\n\nHave no unbelieving friends. Kill the unbelievers wherever you find them.\n\nIf the unbelievers do not surrender, kill them wherever you find them. Against such you are given clear warrant.\n\nThose who make war with Allah and his messenger will be killed or crucified, or have their hands and feet on alternate sides cut off, or will be expelled out of the land. That is how they will be treated in this world, and in the next they will have an awful doom.\n\nChristians will be burned in the Fire.\n\nChristians are wrong about the Trinity. For that they will have a painful doom.\n\nThose who disbelieve will be forced to drink boiling water, and will face a painful doom.\n\nHow many a township have We destroyed! As a raid by night, or while they slept at noon, Our terror came unto them.\n\nWhen you fight with disbelievers, do not retreat. Those who do will go to hell\n\nSlay the idolaters wherever you find them\n\nIf you refuse to fight, Allah will afflict you with a painful doom\n\nFight the disbelievers and hypocrites. Be harsh with them. They are all going to hell anyway\n\nFight disbelievers who are near you, and let them see the harshness in you\n\nThose who oppose Islam and disbelieve in the Hereafter are guilty of the greatest wrong\n\nWhoever thinks that Allah will not give Muhammad victory should go hang himself\n\nAllah will taunt Christians on the day of their doom, saying: Where are My partners whom ye imagined?\n\nAllah will tear Christians apart for ascribing partners to him\n\nAllah will taunt the Christians in hell, saying: Where are all my partners that you used to believe in?\n\nBut if you're willing to fight for Allah, he will provide you with lots of booty.\n\nDon't make friends with Allah's enemies\n\nDon't be friends with disbelievers. They are your (and Allah's) enemy

Muslims have waged war against non-muslims for some 1400 years now, ever since islam began. While they (or their "leaders) may say they dont feel safe, it is all words. It would be better off put that muslims will not feel safe until they have converted the entire planet to islam.\nNot too suprisingly, other people dont want to convert to islam...\n\nbak2the - just to let you know, muslims DO demand that you become a muslim and during a muslim wedding, the non-muslim wife (as women are not allowed to marry non-muslim men) is AUTOMATICALLY converted to islam during the ceremony.\n\ntheluke - You really need to study world affairs before you state that islam ONLY hates the usa and england... indeed islam is attacking many non western countries, from the sudan were 200,000 christians were murdered by muslims, to thialand, to the phillipeens, to india... and other countries as well. Islam is attacking all over the planet, This behavior has nothing to do with the "west" as it has been going on since 1400 years ago.

Because the only thing muslims know how to do well is to fight and die for their god.  Well, that and marry little girls.

No, but I would guess that a lot of people who do are not secure in their own faith, and therefore must tear others down.

They're not going to because they condone terrorism and everything it stands for. They cry foul should someone outside ths islamic faith should so much as cast a critical eye on their religion, then come here, sponge off the government claim every benefit known to man, and then protest should someone print cartoons of the so called "prophet" mohammed. muslims cry foul that they are not being treated fairly, but don't cry foul whenever terrorists from the muslim community kill hundreds to thousands of innocent civillians.

You see this is the sort of behavior ill never understand. Why if you are secure in your own beliefs would you be so threatened and so angered by someone who has different beliefs. Whether you agree with them or not. I'm a Muslim and it  makes absolutely no difference to me if the person next door worships Jesus, Buddha, Vishnu, the moon or the fairies they think live at the bottom of there garden. Go figure ??

They are called EXTREMISTS or FUNDAMENTALISTS...pick whatever.....Allah HOOOOOO Akbar!

The Qur'an tells muslims to kill and go to war to fight for Islam:  Quran, chapters (Surahs) 9:5; 2:191; 2:193; 3:118; 4:75,76; 5:33, 8:12; 8:65; 9:73,123; 33:60-62.  \nFight for Allah:  "And kill them wherever you find them, and drive them out from whence they drove you out, and persecution is severer than slaughter, and do not fight with them at the Sacred Mosque until they fight with you in it, but if they do fight you, then slay them; such is the recompense of the unbelievers, (Quran 2:191). \nMuslims are to battle for Allah:  "Those who believe do battle for the cause of Allah; and those who disbelieve do battle for the cause of idols. So fight the minions of the devil. Lo! the devil's strategy is ever weak," (Quran 4:76). \nKill those against Islam:  "The only reward of those who make war upon Allah and His messenger and strive after corruption in the land will be that they will be killed or crucified, or have their hands and feet on alternate sides cut off, or will be expelled out of the land. Such will be their degradation in the world, and in the Hereafter," (Quran 5:33). \nBeheading:  "When thy Lord inspired the angels, (saying): I am with you. So make those who believe stand firm. I will throw fear into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Then smite the necks and smite of them each finger. 13That is because they opposed Allah and His messenger. Whoso opposeth Allah and His messenger, (for him) lo! Allah is severe in punishment," (Quran 8:12). \nAllah urges war:  "O Prophet! urge the believers to war; if there are twenty patient ones of you they shall overcome two hundred, and if there are a hundred of you they shall overcome a thousand of those who disbelieve, because they are a people who do not understand," (Quran 8:65). \nSlay non-muslims:  "Then, when the sacred months have passed, slay the idolaters wherever ye find them, and take them (captive), and besiege them, and prepare for them each ambush. But if they repent and establish worship and pay the poor-due, then leave their way free. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful," (Quran 9:5). \nAllah urges war:  "O Prophet! strive hard against the unbelievers and the hypocrites and be unyielding to them; and their abode is hell, and evil is the destination," (Quran 9:73). \nAllah urges war:  "O you who believe! fight those of the unbelievers who are near to you and let them find in you hardness; and know that Allah is with those who guard (against evil)," (Quran 9:123). \nAllah urges killing: "...the hypocrites and those in whose hearts is a disease and the agitators in the city do not desist... 61Cursed: wherever they are found they shall be seized and murdered, a (horrible) murdering. 62(Such has been) the course of Allah with respect to those who have gone before; and you shall not find any change in the course of Allah, (Quran 33:60-62). \nBeheading:  "Now when ye meet in battle those who disbelieve, then it is smiting of the necks until, when ye have routed them, then making fast of bonds; and afterward either grace or ransom till the war lay down its burdens..." (Quran 47:4). \nAllah loves those who fight for him.  "Truly Allah loves those who fight in His Cause in battle array, as if they were a solid cemented structure," (Quran 61:4).  \n     As you can see, the Qur'an definitely teaches that it's people are to fight for the cause of Islam. This list of verses is important because they are within the holy book of Islam. What are we to conclude if a Muslim or to take the Quran seriously? Is he not obligated to slay non-Muslims, to go to war, to kill those against Islam, etc.? Isn't this what the verses are teaching? Yes, they are and this is the source of Islamic Terrorism.\n\nSalvation\n\n     In Islam, there is no guarantee of salvation except in one instance, dying in Jihad. Jihad is the struggle, the battle against those who would oppose Isla

True Muslims believe...,\n\n"All non Muslims must be killed eventually."  (7 words)\n\nSo much for religious tolerance.

I am not sure but fight for our god? Depends on what it is.....like if someone asks a bad question about Islam then answer by correcting it. BE PROUD. but just dont go getting into fights just to stick up for your religion because you no why? because they fight wont help solve anything.....if you believe then nothing can destroy that. Fighting doesnt solve anything..

Islam does not call for the death of infidels,also in addition of that,if they live in Islamic countries,they must have a complete safety and must treated as well as muslims.\nBut when infidels want to be enemies and start to fight muslims and want to kill them and getting their lands,in that case,muslims should protect themselves and lands and fight the enemies.\nThis case is not in Islam only,but in all religions and beliefs,fight who fights you.\n\n(And fight in the way of Allah with those who fight against you but do not commit aggression because AIIah does not like aggressors.) holy Quran\n\nAnd let me tell you something,Fatwa means an opinion of an Islamic scholar about an issue,so not all Fatwas are right because scholars differs,some of them make mistakes.\nScholars should unite their opinions,that what all muslims want and call for!

They don't believe in God. They believe in Allah and Muhammad. However, historians have correlated Allah and Muhammad with God and Jesus.
