how can non muslim love with islamic world and its people?

Empathy is the foundation of love.  See each person as a human being, with their own struggles, hopes, dreams, pain and suffering, regardless of their religion.  Remember that each person is a little child, a mature person with responsibilities, an aged person near death.  If you see each one as a human, you can only love them.

The whole Islamic world is not even, or will ever be, allied with itself.  I realize that American public education and our universities fail miserably at teaching the truth about other cultures, so here is a run down.\n\nThere are two main sects in Islam (not Muslim as being "Muslim" is a state of Islam, akin to "Nirvana").  These are the Sunnis and the Shia.  The Sunnis think the Shia are aposates and traitors to Islam.  Within the Sunni sect, there are several other subsects of which Whabbasism is just one.  Trying to get all these sects to agree on what day it even is is difficult enough.  Having them unite as one is almost impossible.  \n\nThis is further complicated by the fact African, Far Eastern, and Indonesian Islamists don't like the Arabs, or each other.  Al Qeada's pay and command structure further infuriated non-Arab Islamic people.  Old Bin Lying doesn't pay non-Arabs as much as Arabs or let them be as high ranking in his clubhouse.  Plus, the genocide in Sudan and othert parts is being caused by Islamic Arabs killing Islamic Africans, along with Christian Africans.  BTW, Islam refers to Jesus Christ as a prophit and pays homage to him (Guess Bin Lying forgot to read that part of the Quran!).\n\nMixed into this further the tribal and clan nature of the Middle East and Africa.  The US, USSR, UK, and others have always been able to fracture the alliances by either buying off a clan or allowing the clans to fight themselves, which is usually what happens without Western involvement.\n\nAnd to top it off, a large and growing number of Islamic peoples do not hate America or what it is doing.  Efforts in Afghanistan, Kuwait, Indonesia, Pakistan, and other areas where the US Military and NGOs go in are paying monumental dividends.\n\nIraqis are siding with the USA, as are Jordanians, as are the oppressed people of Iran (they just can't do much about it right now.. such is what always happens when you disarm the people).  Then there are the Pastdun people of Pakistan, who, after Al Qeada abandoned them following the massive earthquake that killed 80,000+, saw the ones who rushed in was...come on, guess....That's right, the USA!  And who sent massive aid to Indonesia, dispite the lies from leftists in the UN?  The USA wins there too by sending very high level, and possibly vulnerable assets to the disaster area.  Just like we did for Katrina later, the US military sent assault ships, one of our two hospital ships, and an aircraft carrier without its fighters but loaded with supplies and helos (the USS Kittyhawk) to the area.  These efforts speak volumes to the people of the area and cause a rift between them and our enemies.\n\nSo, yes, we stand a great chance since the Islamic world is difficult to unite and easy to fracture.

That is why I firmly state that Islam is not a tolerant religion and is the cause for conflicts throughout the world. It is a religion that doesn't consider human rights at all. I'm not saying I'm against the Muslims, just that they have to make their religion flexible to be able to be in peace with others.

Is the this the tolerance Non-Muslims keep bragging about? (Shoot yourself,your going to hell, ..etc). Well, you're not so different than Muslim extremists. It's evident that extremists aren't exclusive to Muslims then, eh? \n\nTo Heart-beat, \nPeace unto you,\nHere's a nice link to start with:\nhttp://www.iprofess.com/howtoconvert.htm\n\nMy advice is, a person grows in Islam. I'm a born Muslima and it took me years to wear the Hijab. So, how can we expect for newly converts to wear it right away. Unless you see it of benefit for you do so. What is most important now is to learn how to make ablution, pray, fast, and learn more about Islamic creed. These are the basics, the rest you'll learn as you grow. Arabic is important but remember the majority of Muslims are non-Arabic speakers and still practice Islam. Remember don't crowd yourself with so much to do and forget the essentials.\nTo learn how to pray, these links should help:\n\nFirst how to make ablution (wudu)\nwhich is essential to prayer:\nhttp://www.islamicity.com/Mosque/salat/salat6.htm\n\nPrayer (I provided different sources as one might be clearer than the other to you)\n\nhttp://www.islamicity.com/Mosque/salat/salat9.htm\n\nhttp://www.bahagia.btinternet.co.uk/prayer3.html#niyat\n\nhttp://www.jannah.com/learn/prayer.html\n\nhttp://www.islam101.com/dawah/HowToSalah.ppt#1\n\n\n\nRules of Fasting:\nhttp://www.islamonline.net/servlet/Satellite?pagename=IslamOnline-English-Ask_Scholar/FatwaE/FatwaE&cid=1119503546140\n\n\nFeel free to contact me for anymore questions, especially if you want a sisters feedback. \n\nI'll keep you in my prayers and wish you the best in whatever you do. May Allah (swt) ease your journey and guide you to what He pleases.

None.\n\nHence why there is no such thing as the so-called "Muslim World." Muslims are every where.\n\nNote: for the record, there ARE Muslims in Australia. About 300,000 of them:\nhttp://www.dfat.gov.au/facts/islam_in_australia.html\n\nAlso from Wikipedia:\n"Only 18% of Muslims live in the Arab world; 20% are found in Sub-Saharan Africa, about 30% in the South Asian region of Pakistan, India and Bangladesh, and the world's largest single Muslim community (within the bounds of one nation) is in Indonesia. There are also significant Muslim populations in China, Europe, Central Asia, and Russia.\n\nFrance has the highest Muslim population of any nation in Western Europe, with up to 6 million Muslims (10% of the population [7]). Albania is said to have the highest proportion of Muslims as part of its population in Europe (70%), although this figure is only an estimate (see Islam in Albania). The number of Muslims in North America is variously estimated as anywhere from 1.8 to 7 million."

Many Muslims are genuinely respectful and peaceful.\nThe religion, as such, has a very radical and violent dogma and many muslims will adhere to it. The life of Mohammed and the fondation of the Koran is based on many quotes that are extremely clear and radical to deal with issues of daily lives.\n\nMuslim who can live in resepct and peace with others, choose the verses in the Koran that suits the peaceful ways they adhere too. They will usually stick to the wholesome fondation of what the duty of a Muslim is rather than what the Koran actually DOES teach in terms of radical responses our behavior in the world.\n\nThis said, radicalism in Islam is not like the KKK. The issue that concerns many scholars and thinkers about Islam is that it can just not deny that a radical Islamist Muslim actually does follow the Koran. The proof is in the debates to try to adapt and modernize the understanding of Islam to actualize it's spiritual outlook to modernity. Yet, that movement is loosing grounds and is not supported by a majority of Muslims.

If muslims, had adopted the manners and attitude prophet Mohammed passed on to the worlds, shame would over-whelm those who mock him. It is really hard for a good person not to love Mohammed, if they knew what he really wanted for mankind. Its a good reminder for Muslims and non-Muslims alike, that its time to do as prophet Mohammed would have done. Seek peace, understanding, harmony and merciful manners between humans, with one God for all.\n\n"By the grace of Allah, you are gentle towards the people; if you had been stern and ill-tempered, they would have dispersed from round about you" (translation of Qur'an 3:159) \nAbout himself the prophet (pbuh) said \n"Allah has sent me as an apostle so that I may demonstrate perfection of character, refinement of manners and loftiness of deportment." (Malik, Mawatta; Ahmed, Musnad; Mishkat)

It depends on what kind of Muslim they are. Those who interpret their faith literally can not.

YOu have to look at what Islam teaches you.\nFor jut a moment, disregard what others tell you about the violence people are accusing islam of.\n\nIslam teaches to respect life. IT is forbidden to harm anything, human, plant, insect, animals for no reason\n\nIT is forbidden to lie, backbite.\nIts a duty of every muslim, to help the needy, the poor, orphans, visit the sick.\n-Be good to ones neighbour.\n-Vist others and have food with them, regardless of faith.\n-Respect others faith, muslim or not.\n-Have patience, and enjoin the good, forbid the evil\n-Believe in one and only one God.\n-It is forbidden to commit any sort of crime, robbery.\n-Do not hurt another person, physically or emotionally.\n-Respect ones parents to the utmost- do not talk back to them, do not talk loud infront of them, walk behind them as a sign of respect.\n-Acquire knowlege, \n-Use this life in the most beneficial way possible.\n-Society and house manners should be maintained.\n-Be humble and have humility, do not be arrogant.\n\nSo you see, Islam is a beutiful religion, and it teaches one to be good and humble.\n\nAs for the violence, its a shame that some muslims do not understand the rules of Islam and tend to interprete it themselves the wrong way.\nYou cannot really blame the religion for how its followers are not following it correctly.

I'm a Muslim and we are thought to treat the other religions and their followers with respect. I would suggest you to try to do the same thing.

I am a Muslim myself and it would be nice if I could turn a non-believer into a believer, but if you turn an atheist into a believer by force then you have achieved nothing. One has to believe in God from the heart not because they are pressured. You even said once yourself that the Quran states not demands. Maybe one day they will learn, but let there not be a wall between people for we are all humans and of Allah's creation.

I'm not Muslim, but nice story. The world would be a beautiful place if all Muslims would follow Him. Then again, the world would be a better place if all Christians would follow Jesus.\n\nPersonally, I would abolish all priests, give a Koran to each Muslim, Bible to Christians, and so on for all religions. It will be a diverse, beautiful world.

No you can't, I agree with what you said 100%. \nIt's scary what's happening in europe, muslims are emigrating there in droves and they bring along with it all their hateful ideology, and if the time comes when they are asked to chose between their hateful clerics whims, or their country... They are gonna chose the hateful cleric.

I've been living in Egypt, which is an Islamic country, for 19 years now. Muslims are very friendly just like any other people on earth. I never heard that Qur'an instigates them to occupy oether peoples' lands. If you look around you will find that it is the other way around: Muslims are occupied in all cases by nonmuslims and are trying to get their lands freed

I have many christian friends who married muslim men.  It is true that we revere Jesus and believe his birth to be a miracle of God.  If you want to stay Christian make sure you make that point very clear.  You can maintain your religion and your love for this man and have a wonderful family.  Please be warned: A muslim man can marry a christian or jewish woman- but his children must be Muslim.  These are things to think about, but if you love him and love God, then it can work. You just have to really sit down and talk to him about all of these things. Good luck to you! God bless.

I took a class on world religions. A Muslim believes in Allah (God). He is not a very personal God. He is a God of wrath, not love like the Christian God. They believe in "converting or killing" non-muslims. Christians believe in loving non-Christians and trying to show them the truth that they may believe.
